Ice for offense, water for support, complementing each other, forming a complete whole!
This was the fusion technique their teacher taught them, and it was also the eight-character mantra their teacher imparted:
[Great momentum is slow, sharp edges are brittle]
Although the Clear Sky Hammer was powerful, it wasn't terrifying. What was truly terrifying was using one's weakness against the enemy's strength.
"Clear Sky Hammer, Storm Whirlwind! Disorderly Cloak!"
Tang San roared. The Clear Sky Hammer was the number one Tool Spirit in the world, incredibly domineering.
Unfortunately, water happened to be the bane of heavy objects!
This was using softness to overcome hardness!
Only those who have wielded a hammer in water know that in water, every swing requires greater force, but the power delivered is greatly reduced.
Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer flickered with the power of a whirlwind, attempting to carve a path through the ice river and redirect the ice river's water back onto the Tianshui Academy team members.
This, instead, gave Shui Bing'er an opportunity.
She seized the chance, a combo of moves, directly sending Tang San flying.
"Ice River, Freeze!"
"Breath of Heaven Frost!"
As Shui Bing'er's jade hand settled, along the path, the ice water in the entire ice river rapidly solidified into an ice layer, directly freezing Tang San in mid-air.
And just as Tang San attempted to break free from the frozen restraint, and cracks appeared on the ice layer, Shui Bing'er exhausted her spirit power, once again condensing all the scattered frost, and sprayed it from the Ice Phoenix's mouth, aiming directly at the frozen Tang San.
In an instant, the ice river shattered, and the ice water, losing the traction of spirit power, cascaded down from the sky, flooding the entire arena. Tang San was blasted hundreds of meters away by that Breath of Heaven Frost, slamming heavily into a pillar of the Supreme Pontiff Palace, as if the entire Supreme Pontiff Palace trembled, and the pillar cracked.
"Pfft—"
A mouthful of thick blood spurted out. Tang San's ribs were broken in who knows how many places. When he fell, he had already lost the ability to move normally, his eyes filled only with horror and helplessness. The Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone emitted powerful healing energy to treat his injuries, but he had already been blasted out of the arena, which meant he had lost the match!
Tang San's voice trembled:
"My Clear Sky Hammer, was countered?"
"I… lost again."
"No!"
"Yu Xiaogang! You ruined me!"
