Chapter 193: Han Laoshi, You

In the skill bar.

"Fireball Spell," hearing his younger brother's pathetic cry, remained unfazed.

【"Fireball Spell" sneered: "What's the panic? It's just a high-rank skill—so what?"】

"Fireball Spell" spoke with deep arrogance: "Compared to my Meteor Fire, its display is crude—and that's not even the worst of it..."

【"Fireball Spell" proudly lifted its head: "I absorbed the elemental fragments perfectly and possess a unique skill! In this household, I'm still the unshakable boss!"】

Though it said so aloud.

Inside, "Fireball Spell" already felt a sense of crisis.

It never expected this new little delinquent to have such extraordinary talent.

This rate of comprehension made even it, the ultimate grindmaster, feel inferior.

【"Fireball Spell" turned to "Lightning Strike Spell" beside it: "Third brother, you agree, right? We've got unique skills—this newcomer thinking she can ride over us? Pure fantasy!"】

Facing Fireball's remark.

"Lightning Strike Spell" merely flickered slightly.

【"Lightning Strike Spell" spoke coldly: "I have no interest. I don't need to prove myself by competing with this little girl."】

Hearing this.

【"Fireball Spell" rolled its eyes: "Pfft! You pretentious jerk! Who's been racing me to clear monsters these past two days, striking lightning more frantically than anyone else?"】

【"Earth Shield Spell" also sighed: "Sigh… I never thought, big brother, third brother—on her very first day, she's already outpaced us in high-rank skills. It's truly heartbreaking."】

Lin Mo sighed inwardly:

"Alright, Fireball, Earth Shield—stop feeling threatened."

"Today's trip to the back mountain is purely to study ice skills. Xiao Bing has high talent, so she learns faster."

"Learn from Lightning Strike. Stay focused on yourself and wait. The opportunity meant for you will come eventually."

After calming the skills.

Lin Mo lifted his head, meeting Han Xue's gaze, a faint smile on his lips.

"Han Laoshi, no problem—I've already seen through it."

Hearing this, Han Xue's eyes flickered with complexity.

Again, he saw through it. Again, instantly.

To Lin Mo, are high-rank skills really as simple as one plus one equals two?

"Good. Then try it."

Han Xue nodded.

Immediately,

Lin Mo said nothing more.

He stepped forward, walking a few paces until he stood alone on the dead-white ice plain.

"Xiao Bing, get to work."

Lin Mo silently issued the command within.

In the skill bar.

"Ice Spike Spell" gazed with supreme arrogance: "Master, just watch! My move is effortless, a cinch!"

Hummm—!!!

The instant "Ice Spike Spell" finished speaking,

A pure, tyrannical storm of extreme cold erupted violently from Lin Mo's body!

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

The ground began freezing furiously.

Before everyone's stunned gazes,

A colossal ice throne erupted thunderously behind Lin Mo!

The throne shone with an abyssal blue, crystalline luster.

Simultaneously,

The extreme cold domain began spreading wildly in all directions.

Ice elements in the surrounding air boiled as they surged together.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

One after another, humanoid ice soldiers burst through the frozen ground!

Ten…

Fifty…

One hundred…

Countless ice death soldiers, each holding a single ice spear, lined up behind Lin Mo.

Their killing aura pierced the heavens!

They knelt on one knee, as if paying homage to their one and only king!

Not far away,

Fang Lei, Li Xuer, and others recoiled in terror, faces pale.

Han Xue watched silently.

Her crimson lips parted slightly.

Of course…

Again, one glance and he understood.

And the result—seemed even more perfect than her own.

At this moment,

Lin Mo's vision received the system prompt as expected.

【Congratulations! Your skill "Ice Spike Spell" has successfully evolved and mastered the high-rank ice skill: Frost Winter · Ice Throne (Lv. )!】

【Frost Winter · Ice Throne (Lv. ): Summon a throne and activate an extreme cold domain. Within the domain, all enemy targets suffer "Absolute Slow" (80% reduction in movement and attack speed). Simultaneously, summon the "Ice Death Soldiers" legion. Ice Death Soldiers inherit 70% of the caster's base attributes and can infinitely regenerate within the domain by absorbing ice elements after being shattered. The number and damage of Ice Death Soldiers scale with skill level. Cooldown: 10 minutes.】

Looking at this long skill description,

Lin Mo sighed in awe.

So brutal!

This high-rank skill is a god-tier ability for team fights and positional defense!

An 80% slow domain is practically immobilization.

Add to that the infinitely regenerating Ice Death Soldiers…

As long as Xiao Bing's mana doesn't run out, enemies within the domain will face endless waves of Ice Death Soldiers!

Truly, one man, an army!

…

Seeing this, Han Xue walked over to Lin Mo's side.

She took a deep breath, forcing her voice to sound calm.

"Good…"

"Lin Mo, you've mastered this high-rank skill more perfectly than I ever could."

Then, Han Xue grew serious again:

"Next, I will teach you my final high-rank ice skill."

Hearing this,

Lin Mo waved his hand casually.

The throne and Ice Death Soldiers behind him instantly dissolved into a storm of ice shards.

"Please, Han Laoshi."

Han Xue nodded.

She closed her eyes, her aura rapidly condensing.

"This technique…"

"Is called…【Frost Annihilation · Eternal Ice Coffin】!"

Han Xue suddenly opened her eyes!

Boom—!!!

A terrifying shockwave instantly engulfed the plain before her, spanning thousands of square meters!

Thick dark clouds began gathering in the sky.

Then,

From within the clouds, massive coffins forged of deep black ice fell like meteorites!

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

The colossal coffins slammed into the earth.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

Dozens of massive black ice coffins burst open with thunderous lids!

Boom!

Accompanied by heavy, muffled footsteps.

From those ice coffins, towering, terrifying figures stepped forth!

They were dozens of Frost Giants.

Each stood about ten meters tall, their bodies massive like moving hills.

In their hands, they dragged enormous ice-capped spiked clubs.

Their faces were blue, fangs bared—long, sharp, and outward-curving, dripping with chilling ice shards.

A terrifying, corpse-like coldness radiated from their entire beings.

As if they had crawled out of the frigid depths of the netherworld.

Fang Lei, Li Xuer, and the others hiding behind them all felt their scalps prickle, their legs trembling uncontrollably.

Lin Mo looked at this horde of ferocious Frost Giants and twitched his lips slightly.

No way…

Master Han, you're sure you're a mage?

You're actually a summoner, aren't you?

A summoner who specializes in dark creatures!
