Almost simultaneously!
"Boom! Boom boom boom—!!!"
The layers of massive ice mountains suppressing Sirin shattered and exploded violently from their core, as if massive amounts of explosives had been buried inside them!
Massive blocks of cold ice weighing countless tons were violently lifted by a raging turbulence, as if grabbed by an invisible giant hand, and smashed straight down onto the newly stabilized Kevin!
The ice blocks were the size of houses, and their speed was astonishing!
Facing this sudden ice mountain "tsunami," Kevin's ice-blue eyes remained calm.
He didn't even use the baseball bat; he simply raised his right fist and punched out at the largest ice mountain rushing toward him!
"Boom—Crash!!!"
There was no light, no special effects.
Only pure, ultimate power.
The ice mountain, several stories high, instantly shattered and disintegrated like tofu fed into a shredder the moment it met Kevin's fist, turning into a spectacular rain of ice crystals that whistled past his sides and crashed onto the ground with continuous loud noises.
Amidst the pervasive ice dust, Sirin's figure reappeared.
She was still floating near her original position, but her appearance was even more battered than before.
Her Herrscher skirt armor was ripped in several places, revealing Kiana's skin beneath. Her long hair was even more disheveled, the bloodstain on her mouth was still fresh, and her beautiful face was covered in a layer of frost, yet flushed abnormally due to anger.
The purple-black imaginary energy surrounding her violently boiled and twisted; clearly, forcibly blasting the ice mountain seal from the inside had consumed a tremendous amount of energy.
"Scum...!"
She cursed softly, her voice carrying suppressed fury.
Her golden cross-shaped pupils locked onto Kevin, devoid of any hint of underestimation or the luxury of "wits," leaving only the purest killing intent.
She slowly raised her hands, no longer limiting herself to creating voids.
This time, she began to directly manipulate the ice and snow domain itself.
"Whoosh—!"
Centered around her, the shattered ice blocks, the pervasive ice crystals, and even the tiny water molecules frozen by Kevin's power in the air, all began to slowly float, defying gravity!
Under the contamination of Sirin's Authority, they gradually became stained with an ominous purple-black halo, their internal structure forcibly warped, emitting a dangerous aura of spatial annihilation!
It was as if every ice crystal had turned into a miniature bomb!
The rules of the entire area were being violently interfered with by her Authority!
Sirin's figure slowly ascended, surrounded by this floating, dangerous ice and snow, like the physical manifestation of destruction.
Opposite her, Kevin's expression remained like ten-thousand-year-old ice, completely undisturbed.
He simply watched Sirin's actions silently, observing the "contaminated" ice and snow.
Then, the Cold Ice Domain generated purely by his power beneath his feet began to undergo a strange transformation.
The color of the ice surface deepened and darkened from an extreme ice-blue, shifting toward black!
This was a manifestation of a deeper level of low temperature—a domain trending towards absolute zero, where even molecular thermal motion was nearly stopped and light itself was frozen and absorbed!
This Dark Ice Domain centered around him, rising upward, slowly lifting his body to face Sirin in the air from a distance.
Dark ice crystals silently floated around him, forming a silent and terrifying confrontation with the purple-blackened, dangerous ice and snow around Sirin.
The temperature of the entire training room plummeted to a terrifying degree at this moment!
"Achoo!!"
Xing, huddled in the distant corner with her back against the wall, suddenly sneezed and began shivering, hugging her arms.
She looked down at herself in disbelief: "What the heck... W-why do I feel so cold?!"
She carried a Star Core and possessed the power of the Path of Preservation; conventional extreme cold or even the low temperature of space should barely cause her discomfort.
Yet at this moment, that chill, which felt capable of freezing the soul, penetrated all her defenses, making her feel cold deep in her bones, and her teeth couldn't help but chatter.
She looked up and saw that the training room seemed to be divided by an invisible boundary into two terrifying domains:
On one side was a Hell of Ice and Snow with flowing purple-black light and warped space; on the other was an Abyss of Cold Ice, swallowing light and heat, silent and eternal.
And she herself was like a helpless falling leaf in the eye of the storm.
"What the hell!"
Xing was on the verge of tears, huddling her body tighter. "Are these two big shots fighting... planning to freeze the entire universe?!"
She began seriously considering whether to just lie down and wait for death, or shout, "Ref! Someone here is illegally using a massive cooling device!"
