"Headmaster, is she your disciple?" Shui Wuya pretended not to know Ma Xiaotao, waiting for Yan Shaozhe to speak first.
Before Yan Shaozhe could respond, both of them simultaneously noticed that Ma Xiaotao was not in a good state!
Ma Xiaotao, running on the lake surface, appeared extremely anxious, her expression clearly showing that she was enduring something.
With every step she took on the lake, a huge splash erupted.
"Oh no, she's about to lose control of the Evil Fire within her," Yan Shaozhe hadn't expected Ma Xiaotao to change like this in just one day.
"Quick, use your cold aura to help suppress the Evil Fire within her," seeing Ma Xiaotao rapidly approaching them without slowing down, Yan Shaozhe knew that Ma Xiaotao was somewhat disoriented now.
Perhaps, upon seeing Yan Shaozhe, she relaxed her guard and lost control.
Yan Shaozhe was already prepared to control Ma Xiaotao first.
However, a terrifying chill suddenly erupted beside him!
Shui Wuya wouldn't miss such a good opportunity. Helping Ma Xiaotao was one thing, but he also wanted Yan Shaozhe to recognize his talent.
As Ma Xiaotao hadn't reached the shore yet, Shui Wuya had already walked onto the surface of the Sea God Lake!
A faint ice-blue phoenix shadow appeared behind Shui Wuya.
Following that, ice formed rapidly on the surface of the lake, and in an instant, everything within Yan Shaozhe's sight was frozen!
"This coldness, truly worthy of Extreme Ice!" Yan Shaozhe's face lit up.
Even the plants beside him were affected by the chill.
Although Shui Wuya had already reached the lake's surface, the chill around Yan Shaozhe showed no signs of decreasing!
And this was just the cold aura naturally emanating from Shui Wuya.
On the other side, after stepping onto the lake surface, Shui Wuya didn't move forward because Ma Xiaotao was already rushing towards them at high speed!
At this moment, Ma Xiaotao felt unbearable heat all over her body, and the sudden appearance of the chill was her last straw.
The refreshing sensation of the sudden disappearance of the heat made her unable to help but groan.
Then, she became more eager to rush to Shui Wuya's side to relieve the heat with his chill.
Almost uncontrollably, Ma Xiaotao directly revealed her Martial Soul!
A sinister fire phoenix shadow emerged behind Ma Xiaotao, intensifying the sensation of heat!
"Oh no," Yan Shaozhe's gaze was fixed firmly on Ma Xiaotao and Shui Wuya. In the past, Ma Xiaotao would always restrain herself and not use her Martial Soul.
Because the Evil Fire itself came from her Martial Soul, the more she used it, the stronger the Evil Fire became.
This time, perhaps attracted by Shui Wuya's Ice Phoenix Martial Soul and with Ma Xiaotao's consciousness somewhat lost, she involuntarily released her Martial Soul.
Everything happened very quickly. Possessed by her Martial Soul, Ma Xiaotao's speed doubled, almost flashing forward in Shui Wuya's eyes.
"Ice Seal," Shui Wuya felt extremely comfortable now.
Through the cultivation of the Extreme Ice Heart Technique, his body had accumulated a large amount of cold aura. During normal practice, he would not involuntarily affect the surrounding environment, but it was evident nonetheless.
And in the dormitory, he had already exercised considerable restraint.
Now, he had an opportunity to release all the accumulated cold aura in his body without reservation!
That was the accumulation of twelve years of cultivation experience.
As it vented out, he felt a sense of relief.
In almost an instant, Ma Xiaotao was frozen into an ice sculpture!
The burning Evil Fire inside her continued to burn, but the chill and the Evil Fire melted away, and the malevolence disappeared.
After releasing his power once, Shui Wuya also withdrew his strength and approached the ice sculpture, thickening the ice a bit more.
Inside the ice, Ma Xiaotao's consciousness finally cleared up. Seeing Yan Shaozhe and Shui Wuya through the ice, she immediately realized the current situation.
The sensation of being wrapped in Extreme Ice was an unprecedented comfort for her.
Her soul power was fully activated, resisting the invading cold aura into her body but not resisting too much, causing the cold aura to be unable to penetrate her body.
During this process, her soul power rapidly became purer.
Yan Shaozhe watched everything unfold, astonished by the power displayed by Shui Wuya.
Fortunately, he also realized that achieving all this had greatly exhausted Shui Wuya. If the expenditure hadn't been significant, it would have been even more astounding.
"Headmaster, is this sufficient?" Shui Wuya gasped for breath, feeling insecure due to the depletion of his soul power. But fortunately, he was in control.
Although freezing Ma Xiaotao so suddenly consumed a considerable amount of soul power, considering how Huo Yuhao was drained in the original story, Shui Wuya felt it was all worth it.
Despite the heavy expenditure, at least his dignity remained intact.
"Truly worthy of mastering the Extreme Ice of Ice Phoenix Martial Soul, the effect completely exceeds my expectations," Yan Shaozhe exclaimed.
"I'll take her for an examination of the Evil Fire in her body now. After the results are out, I'll come to you."
With Ma Xiaotao frozen in front of them, Yan Shaozhe directly carried her on his shoulder.
Treading on the surface of the Sea God Lake, they headed towards the inner courtyard.
"After expending so much energy, shouldn't I be given something for consolation?" Shui Wuya shrugged. His goal had been achieved.
Meanwhile, on the other side,
Huo Yuhao looked at the frozen lake surface before him, feeling puzzled.
At the same time, he also had a strange feeling in his heart, as if he had lost something.
But he didn't pay much attention to it.
"Brother Tianmeng, why is the lake frozen?" Huo Yuhao asked.
"It's that Shui Wuya," Tianmeng Iceworm also felt surprised that they could witness such powerful Extreme Ice.
In terms of quality, it was not inferior to the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion he knew.
"Is it a soul skill?" Huo Yuhao asked immediately, as this frozen lake surface had exceeded the range of his spiritual perception.
If this was done by a soul skill, it would be terrifying.
Is this what a genius is like?
"It's not a soul skill, just the cold aura generated by his Martial Soul," Tianmeng Iceworm replied.
"Don't worry, I've prepared a second Martial Soul for you that won't lose to his."
Huo Yuhao stayed by the lake for a while before returning to the dormitory. Upon seeing Wang Dong, he told him about what had happened.
"According to what you said, he's probably from the Extreme Clan, and his status isn't low," Wang Dong speculated.
"But, I haven't heard of anyone from the Extreme Clan appearing in the world for a long time. Many people think they're extinct. Even though the teacher mentioned it yesterday, I never expected that my classmate would turn out to be from the Extreme Clan," Wang Dong sighed.
