The Magician of Cultivation

"I'll try..."

As these words rang out, a burly man walked out from behind Li Yingjie.

Although this man is a head shorter than Zhou Huaxiong, the bulging muscles on his body are comparable to Zhou Huaxiong's.

Every muscle bulged high, like hard granite.

The burly man held a huge silver steel shield in his left hand and a one-meter-long short axe in his right hand. It was obvious that he was fighting with a shield.

When they saw him appear, a gleam of light flashed in the eyes of Liu Xiuyuan and Li Yingjie.

"Tang Zhou, using your shield charge skill to fight against the mage does have certain advantages."

Li Yingjie smiled and said, "As long as we can successfully approach within 20 meters of the opponent, we can use our skills to reach him in an instant."

Liu Xiuyuan's voice was still gentle, and his tone revealed his trust in Tang Zhou:

"But remember, you must use all your strength from the beginning and make sure to resolve the battle quickly. Ice mages are least afraid of protracted battles. The ice element can not only continuously slow down your movement speed and paralyze your nerves, but also cause severe frostbite."

"Okay, I remember."

Tang Zhou's eyes were steady and his tone revealed strong confidence.

He walked slowly into the encirclement and happened to meet Zhou Huaxiong who was staggering back.

Zhou Huaxiong, with shame and fear in his eyes, warned, "Be careful with his ice, the temperature is too low."

"Ice?" Tang Zhou nodded, "Okay."

He passed Zhou Huaxiong and walked slowly until he was 50 meters away from Yun Yi before stopping.

"Need a rest?"

Tang Zhou looked at the young man in front of him, his voice steady, without any emotion at all.

"No need, just do it."

Yun Yi's voice also remained calm.

"It's Tang Zhou..."

"Senior Brother Tang is about to take action..."

"Who is Tang Zhou?"

Among the first-year court students, there were some who did not know Tang Zhou.

Seeing the fanatical faces of the martial arts students around them, they couldn't help but ask.

"He came in third in the second-year competition at the Martial Academy and is extremely skilled in combat techniques. I heard that even when facing powerful warriors, Senior Brother Tang could remain undefeated."

"So strong? Then maybe we can win this game."

"Of course. It's not difficult for a shield warrior to get close. As long as we let the fighter get close, won't you mages let us take advantage of you?"

"Hey, how can you talk like that? Is it that easy for you fighters to get close?"

"Humph, what's wrong with you? You act like you're so great all day long..."

The words of this martial arts academy student immediately caused dissatisfaction among the court students.

"Brother, what you said is a bit too much. We haven't offended you."

"Why waste your time talking to them? They are just a bunch of guys who only care about muscles and fight all day long."

"Fuck, fuck him..."

The students on both sides immediately started fighting each other, causing the people watching around to frown.

"You two guys, if you don't want to watch it, get out of here..."

Finally, a second-year student shouted angrily, and both sides stopped fighting.

In the circle, the fight has already begun.

Tang Zhou was very cautious. Even though he was stronger than Zhou Huaxiong, his strength was limited.

The opponent didn't even use any attack spells, and Zhou Huaxiong was defeated solely by the cold effect of the ice attribute.

He remembered what Zhou Huaxiong and Liu Xiuyuan said, and immediately unleashed all his fighting spirit, trying to end the fight quickly and not give the other side the slightest chance.

boom

There was an explosion under his feet, and he rushed forward instantly, leaving a trail of afterimages on the flat ground.

The faster he moved, the faster the ice spread and the air temperature began to drop sharply.

Tang Zhou's heart trembled, thinking that his affinity for super elements was indeed abnormal.

He did not jump high like Zhou Huaxiong.

The steel shield hit the ground. Tang Zhou thrust the short axe behind his back, held the shield with both hands, and pushed forward.

Between Tang Zhou and Yun Yi, at a distance of thirty meters, the ice and the shield collided with each other.

The ice climbed up along the shield, soon covering the shield with a thin layer and then quickly became thicker.

"It's so cold..."

The moment he touched the ice, Tang Zhou shivered.

He finally understood why Zhou Huaxiong was defeated and reminded him to be careful of ice.

Not to mention Zhou Huaxiong, as long as he is still at the warrior level, he cannot resist the extremely low temperature of the ice layer.

The stainless steel shield has a strong ability to conduct heat. After contact, the temperature on it will drop to minus 20 to 30 degrees Celsius after just moving forward two or three meters.

Tang Zhou subconsciously wanted to let go of the shield, but his fingers were all red, as if they were stuck to the shield handle.

He pressed his shield against the ground and huddled his body behind it, while at the same time gathering up his fighting spirit and allowing it to flow into his hands and legs.

The fighting spirit is consumed quickly, but with its blessing, the fingers quickly return to normal.

boom

With force exerted by his feet, the shield continued to break the ice and move forward like a bulldozer.

The crackling sound continued to reach the ears of the onlookers, and everyone looked horrified.

It is easy to tell from the sound alone that the ice is extremely hard and Tang Zhou's strength is incredibly great.

Everyone unconsciously clenched their fists and watched the fight nervously.

The distance between the two of them was slowly but steadily shortening.

25米、24米、23米、22.5米、22米……

When the distance reached 22 meters, Tang Zhou finally realized what it meant to be struggling.

"The temperature here is at least minus thirty degrees, but outside the battlefield, it just feels a little cold."

Tang Zhou turned around and looked at the crowd. With his eyesight, he could easily see the expectant expressions on everyone's faces.

"The elemental energy has not leaked out at all. What a strong ability to control the ice element."

He couldn't help but feel a little admiration in his heart. Only after a real battle would he understand how powerful the Ice Demon was.

Even with the help of fighting spirit, every step he took was extremely difficult.

The cold made his brain feel dizzy, as if he was about to fall to the ground and fall into a long sleep.

What's worse is that the elemental fluctuations not far ahead were becoming noticeably more intense.

The ice demon is about to cast his magic.

"what……"

Tang Zhou bit his tongue hard and roared loudly.

The pain instantly cleared his brain, and he burst out with all his fighting spirit, instantly closing the distance between the two to within 20 meters.

"Fighting Skill: Charge"

Tang Zhou shouted loudly, and the fighting spirit in his body vibrated rapidly, following the route of the fighting spirit skills and instantly spreading throughout his body.

"It's done. We're going to win..."

Tang Zhou was secretly delighted and his figure disappeared.

But he didn't notice that everyone behind him had their eyes wide open and looked confused.

As for Yun Yi, there was no expression on his face at all. He looked at Tang Zhou with arrogance and indifference as he approached with difficulty.

The corner of his mouth showed that evil smile that asked for a beating again. He waved his fingers lightly and began to chant a spell.

Layers of "ice shields" quickly formed from the void and blocked him.

In just a few breaths, the ice shield covered ten layers, and Tang Zhou's figure disappeared in front.

"Admit defeat"

Tang Zhou roared, and under the effect of his skills, he rushed to two meters in front of Yun Yi.

But the next moment, the expression on his face turned into surprise, and then panic.

咚

The shield hit the thick ice, and Tang Zhou was embedded in it along with his entire body.

The ice shield was still suspended in the air, but Tang Zhou had fallen into a coma due to the recoil of the shield and the extremely low temperature.

There was silence.
