Chapter 220: Thunderous Clash, Snowflakes Fluttering Across the Sky!
As Shui Bing'er and Xue Wu unleashed their Martial Soul Fusion Technique, a blue white pillar of light shot into the sky and vanished into the dark clouds above.
The moment it connected, the rain stopped.
In its place, snow began to fall.
At first, the snowflakes looked gentle as they drifted down, fluttering in the air like scattered petals. But the next instant, each flake sharpened, turning as keen as a blade. Countless snowflakes spiraled together, forming an icy vortex that descended with terrifying momentum.
Snowflakes Fluttering Across the Sky.
The name was beautiful, almost dreamlike, yet beneath that beauty was a chilling killing intent.
"Tianlin, be careful. If you can't hold on, Xue Wu and I will stop."
Shui Bing'er's voice echoed from within the blue white pillar. Immediately after, she guided the ice snow tornado forward, sweeping straight toward Yu Tianlin.
Yu Tianlin had already activated Thunderous Fury. Lightning roared around his body, blasting apart a portion of the snowflakes the moment they neared.
But there were simply too many.
More and more snowflakes broke through the lightning, slicing onto his body and scraping against his dragon scales with an ear splitting grind.
Yu Tianlin's dragon scales were tough. For the moment, they could withstand the cutting.
But if he kept letting the storm fall on him like this, those scales would eventually crack.
In an instant, Yu Tianlin was forced into a disadvantage.
"I didn't expect Skywater Academy to have a hidden Martial Soul Fusion Technique." In Blue Tyrant Academy's rest area beneath the arena, Yu Xiaogang glanced at Zhu Zhuqing and said, "This is a Martial Soul Fusion Technique. Even Tianlin, with his strength, will struggle to resist it. If you and Mu Bai are willing to activate the Netherworld White Tiger, you can achieve something similar."
Zhu Zhuqing clenched her teeth and said nothing.
Her attitude was clear.
She refused.
Yu Xiaogang could only feel helpless. They clearly had a trump card that could shake the entire arena, yet they could not use it because one person refused. And a Martial Soul Fusion Technique could not be forced. Since Zhu Zhuqing insisted, there was nothing he could do.
He could only say, "Then watch this battle carefully. Maybe it will change your mind."
On the arena, Yu Tianlin was also thinking quickly.
"My dragon scales can't hold forever. What do I do next?"
"Use Thunder Dragon Armor?"
That would massively increase his defense and block the ice snow storm directly. But activating 2 body enhancing techniques at the same time would burn Spirit Power too fast.
And Thunder Dragon Armor was no longer a secret. Bing'er had already seen it before. If she was waiting for him to use it, then the moment he activated it, she would shift tactics to stall, drag the time out, and drain him dry.
Inside the blue white pillar, Shui Bing'er watched Yu Tianlin silently. As the core controller of Snowflakes Fluttering Across the Sky, she could feel the resistance from the storm itself. She could tell, clearly, that Yu Tianlin's dragon scale defense was nearing its limit.
"Tianlin, what will you do?" Shui Bing'er thought.
"Will you forcefully unleash Thunderous Might to fight the falling snow? Or will you use Thunder Dragon Armor to raise your defense and endure it?"
"No matter which choice you make, I'm ready, and your Spirit Power will be drained heavily."
"But you're the man I like. You won't disappoint me. Let me see what you do."
For a moment, Shui Bing'er's mind flashed back to the day she first met Yu Tianlin 6 years ago.
His training in Spirit Power control, his self created Spirit Skill, everything about him had surprised her back then. She believed it would be the same now.
She wanted him to surprise her again.
Meanwhile, Yu Tianlin's eyes sharpened.
"Spirit Power consumption is the biggest problem. If that's the case, I can only use that move."
Within the icy tornado, Yu Tianlin glanced toward a certain direction, then made his decision. The first black Spirit Ring on his body flared.
Thunderous Might, activate!
In an instant, hundreds of black lightning orbs condensed around him. The aura they released was so fierce it tore apart the air itself. The snowflakes near his body were instantly annihilated, and the lightning orbs surged forward, colliding head on with the massive ice snow tornado.
"Thunderous Might?" Shui Bing'er's thoughts moved quickly. "That really suits Tianlin's personality."
He doesn't know that our Martial Soul Fusion Technique has a second stage, so choosing to overwhelm the storm directly is normal.
But Tianlin's thinking can't be that simple…
Before she could chase that thread further, Yu Tianlin had already begun controlling the lightning orbs to press the attack. Shui Bing'er had no choice but to respond according to her plan.
Hundreds of black lightning orbs slammed into the ice snow tornado.
Lightning and frost devoured each other.
Violent elemental energy erupted at the point of collision, surging outward from the center like a wave splitting the arena in two. One half became a world of snow and ice, while the other half turned into an ocean of crackling lightning.
The tournament committee had never expected a Spirit Master battle to affect such a wide area. In an instant, the entire Heaven Dou Great Spirit Arena felt the impact, not only the central stage.
On the side behind Skywater Academy, frost spread outward like a pale carpet. The audience shivered, their faces stiff with cold.
On the side behind Thunder Academy, faint arcs of electricity flickered in the air. Some spectators' hair stood on end, and their limbs twitched slightly from the stray current.
"Clan Master Yu, the young people these days are truly remarkable." On the VIP platform, Ning Fengzhi smiled faintly. "Still, your grandson seems to be at a disadvantage."
His words sounded strange.
On the arena, it was clearly Yu Tianlin's Thunderous Might suppressing Snowflakes Fluttering Across the Sky. Yet Ning Fengzhi said Yu Tianlin was the one at a disadvantage.
"Clan Master Ning, don't worry." Yu Yuanzhen stroked his beard and smiled. "I know Tianlin too well. He definitely has a backup plan."
In truth, Yu Yuanzhen also understood the situation. Although Yu Tianlin's Thunderous Might was pushing back the ice snow tornado, it could not end the Martial Soul Fusion Technique outright. If the clash continued, Yu Tianlin's Spirit Power would be consumed too quickly, and he would inevitably lose.
Even so, Yu Yuanzhen still chose to believe in Yu Tianlin.
Besides, even if Tianlin lost, it wouldn't matter much. On one side was his grandson. On the other was Shui Bing'er, someone who had a relationship with his grandson. To Yu Yuanzhen, the result was not something worth panicking over.
While they spoke, the clash of their trump cards on the arena finally reached a conclusion.
Lightning and ice continued to annihilate each other, but Thunderous Might was being amplified by Thunderous Fury. Its power was clearly stronger.
When the last of the ice snow tornado was shattered and neutralized, roughly 10 black lightning orbs remained.
Under countless gazes, those remaining orbs tore through the storm's remnants and slammed straight into the blue white pillar of light where Shui Bing'er was.
