Chapter 27 Unrivaled Ice
After seeing Huo Yuhao release two martial souls, the audience in the stands started making a lot of noise again.
"Holy crap, is this for real? His first spirit ring is a thousand-year spirit ring? Is Huo Yuhao some kind of monster?"
The boy who had dropped the popcorn earlier had just picked up his popcorn bucket when it slipped and fell again, spilling all the popcorn out of the bucket this time.
"Not only is his first spirit ring a thousand years old, but he also has twin martial souls. Now I finally understand why His Holiness the Pope values Huo Yuhao so much. I actually thought that His Holiness the Pope valued Huo Yuhao because of his good looks. Now it seems that I was too naive."
A boy lowered his head in shame. How could he have thought that way? How shallow he was! How could His Holiness the Pope be such a person!
"Speaking of which, could Yan and Xie Yue really be going to lose?"
A muscular boy muttered to himself, his tone full of disbelief.
"It's possible. I also thought Xie Yue would be defeated by Yan before, but now I'm hesitant. After all, even the legendary twin martial souls have appeared. Maybe Huo Yuhao really can create a miracle!"
A petite girl next to him looked at Huo Yuhao with excited eyes, holding a banner in her hand that read "Huo Yuhao will win."
Just as everyone was discussing the matter, the referee announced the start of the match.
Almost the instant the referee announced the start of the match, a violent heat wave surged from Yan's body.
Facing the strangely powerful Huo Yuhao, Yan was not careless at all and chose to strike first.
"Second Soul Skill, Granite Rock!"
With a roar, Yan's second yellow soul ring lit up, and extremely hot spikes rose from the ground and stabbed towards Huo Yuhao.
This second soul skill, Granite Rock, can be said to be the soul skill that Yan uses most easily. Because it is used the most times, it has now reached the point where it can be cast instantly.
As the sharp spikes were about to pierce Huo Yuhao, all the audience members present held their breath.
Huo Yuhao's supporters, in particular, were holding their hands tightly, their palms sweating.
However, Huo Yuhao was not nervous at all, and his blue eyes were already shining.
Then, to Yan's incredulous gaze, Huo Yuhao transformed into a phantom, constantly maneuvering and dodging among the dense spikes, and continuously charging towards him.
"This, this is impossible!"
Yan's eyes were filled with disbelief. You must know that the instantaneous casting speed of his second soul skill has reached 0.1 seconds per spike, and the location of each spike is random. This means that Yan's spikes cannot be dodged at all and can only be faced head-on!
However, Huo Yuhao was able to precisely dodge every single spike. Just how terrifying were his reaction and calculation abilities!
As the saying goes, laymen watch the show, while experts watch the details. Just as the audience was marveling at Huo Yuhao's smooth movements, sweat was already beading on Xie Yue's forehead.
After all, Xie Yue knew perfectly well how difficult it was to do that.
However, Huo Yuhao was unaware of Xie Yue's thoughts; he simply found Yan's soul skills quite amusing.
To be honest, if Huo Yuhao were to use his Spirit Eye martial soul, he wouldn't even need to get close to the two of them to end the match instantly.
Simply use Soul Impact in combination with the Mind Sharing skill to make Xie Yue and Yan faint due to mental overload.
However, Huo Yuhao did not use these skills. After all, such a match was not entertaining, and if it ended too quickly, the audience would have complaints.
Since he wanted to establish his authority, he naturally wanted everyone to enjoy the spectacle! Therefore, Huo Yuhao was determined to end the match in the most brutal way possible.
Do you think I don't exist?
Just as Huo Yuhao was about to approach Yan, Xie Yue roared and attacked from the side.
"Third Soul Skill, Crescent Blade!"
This time, Xie Yue showed no mercy. His thousand-year soul ring shone brightly, and his sharp moon blade slashed towards Huo Yuhao in an instant.
"Holy crap, Xie Yue unleashed his ultimate move! That Crescent Blade technique once repelled a Soul Master-level senior from our school!"
"It seems that Huo Yuhao is putting a lot of pressure on Senior Xie Yue! You know, as fellow Soul Masters, Senior Xie Yue didn't use two Soul Skills when he fought me, but this time, he directly used his third Soul Skill!"
"Speaking of which, how exactly is Huo Yuhao going to deal with this move?!"
Under the spotlight, Huo Yuhao demonstrated his approach to the situation through his actions.
He slowly extended his right hand, meeting Xie Yue's crescent blade head-on! Then, a temperature close to absolute zero burst forth from Huo Yuhao's body.
The Emperor's Palm: No snow in the Great Cold!
Xie Yue's moon blade slammed into Huo Yuhao's palm. In an instant, Xie Yue felt a terrifyingly low temperature gradually spreading from his moon blade up his arm.
By the time Xie Yue realized what was happening, he had completely lost feeling in the back of his hand.
"Yan, save me!"
Feeling the numbness in her arm, Xie Yue immediately turned to look at Yan.
"Third Soul Skill, Dragon's Fury!"
Upon receiving Xie Yue's distress signal, Yan unleashed his full power, unleashing a surge of purple light from his third soul ring.
This soul skill was obtained by Yan from a 1500-year-old Earth Flame Dragon, and its power is extremely strong.
A five-meter-tall fire giant appeared behind Yan, exuding a terrifying aura. Then, a scorching hot molten lava dragon spewed towards Huo Yuhao.
The fire dragon formed from magma was extremely hot, causing the surrounding air to expand and waves of heat to spread to the audience stands.
Even from hundreds of meters away, the audience on stage could still feel the terror of this attack.
After unleashing this skill, Yan immediately squatted on the ground, supporting himself with his hands on his knees, and gasped for breath.
Although this attack was extremely powerful, it also consumed an enormous amount of soul power.
After just this one attack, about 60% of Yan's soul power had been extracted.
If his skill still couldn't hurt Huo Yuhao, Yan was at a loss.
Faced with Yan's soul skill, Huo Yuhao finally showed a satisfied smile. It was finally getting interesting. However, this match should end here!
Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao threw Xie Yue, who was already exhausted, to the ground.
Then, a long sword radiating a chilling aura gathered in Huo Yuhao's palm.
Emperor's Sword, Unrivaled Ice!
Once the longsword was fully formed, Huo Yuhao immediately gripped the hilt and lightly thrust it at the fire dragon charging towards him.
Extreme cold and intense heat collided, and the near-absolute zero temperature instantly gained the upper hand! The once menacing fire dragon was instantly frozen, and the arena was transformed into a snow-covered wonderland!
