Chapter 56: Chapter 56: The Absolute Suppression of Wizard Power David’s gaze happened to fall on Marquis Ice Bear at that moment. Coincidentally, his thoughts were the same as those of Marquis Ice Bear. As long as he could kill Marquis Ice Bear, the battle would be over, reducing unnecessary casualties. Their thoughts aligned, and simultaneously, they charged at each other. Soon, the distance between them closed. After a brief clash on their mounts, both of them jumped off. Marquis Ice Bear, wielding a two-handed warhammer, relied on the immense strength of the Northern Giant Bear to continuously strike at David. Boom! The ground trembled violently. David dodged the attack, and when the giant hammer struck the ground, it left a large pit. Marquis Ice Bear lifted the warhammer again, looking at the calm-faced David across from him, with a slight frown. Clearly, he hadn’t expected that without using fighting qi, David’s physical strength would surpass that of a Tier Four Peak Knight like himself! David wasn’t surprised at all. After all, his body had gone through several transformations thanks to the Tier Five Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline and the Tier Four Snow Demon Spirit! "It seems you are stronger than I imagined." "But this is as far as it goes; today, you must die here." Marquis Ice Bear growled, urging the formidable fighting qi inside himself. His power had already reached the peak of Tier Four, with his fighting qi density reaching an incredible level. In fact, his fighting qi had partially liquefied; once it was fully liquefied, he would break through to the Tier Five Knight level! As a hallmark of Tier Five power, liquid fighting qi could compress more energy, completely suppressing the gaseous fighting qi of Tier Four. "Hahaha, die!" Seeing himself at an advantage, Marquis Ice Bear laughed and continued his assault. But just as he stepped forward, he felt a sudden heaviness underfoot. At some point, his feet had been covered in ice, freezing him in place and making it difficult to move. "Is this... ice power?" A heavy expression appeared in Marquis Ice Bear’s eyes. Even a Tier Four Peak Earth Knight with the Arctic Giant Bear Bloodline, like himself, hadn’t mastered ice power, yet the Frost Wolf Duke was able to wield it effortlessly! Was the Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline truly that powerful? In his mind flashed the figure that had oppressed him for half his life; now that the person was dead, would he still be suppressed by their son?! Roar— Marquis Ice Bear suddenly let out an inhuman roar. The Arctic Giant Bear Bloodline was activated, causing his muscles to bulge continuously. Although the Arctic Giant Bear didn’t give him ice power, it provided significant physical enhancement, allowing him to tear apart an Earth Knight with bare hands! 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂 Crack— In an instant, the ice covering him shattered under that power! But at the same moment, David made his move. Around his body, a large amount of cold air appeared. Frost Wolf Spirit! Under the power of his Tier Three Spiritual Power, ice elements gathered, coalescing on his Ice Wolf Fang Sword, vaguely revealing a phantom of a Frost Giant Wolf! Frost Wolf Sword Skill, Frost Wolf Breath! His figure moved, shrouded in the power of ice, rushing towards Marquis Ice Bear. "Giant Bear’s Heavy Hammer!" Marquis Ice Bear gathered liquid fighting qi into his heavy hammer! But just as he raised the heavy hammer, he felt a terrifying chill approaching, causing frost to form on his body! But in just a moment, the frost shattered, and with the power of the giant bear, the heavy hammer swung fiercely at the advancing David! Boom! The Ice Wolf Fang Sword clashed with the Ice Bear Giant Hammer. The semi-liquid fighting qi concentrated on the surface of the Ice Bear Giant Hammer erupted suddenly. But in the next moment, a power of ice appeared, forcibly blocking the attack! "It was blocked!" Marquis Ice Bear exclaimed in surprise. He, a Tier Four Peak Knight with semi-liquid fighting qi, was actually not suppressing David, who relied on the ice power of a Tier Four Knight! Boom boom boom— David unleashed a continuous barrage of strikes. The Tier Five Frost Giant Wolf Bloodline, Tier Four Snow Demon Spirit, Middle Ice Element Talent, and Tier Three Spiritual Power. These combined, along with his Tier Four Knight strength, began to suppress Marquis Ice Bear instead. Not only Marquis Ice Bear, but the noble allies from Ice Bear City watched the battle in the center, stunned by the fight between the two Earth Knights. They originally thought Marquis Ice Bear would easily kill the Frost Wolf Duke, quickly ending the territorial war. But what were they witnessing? The Frost Wolf Duke seemed to be gaining the upper hand?! What was going on? Wasn’t the Frost Wolf Duke just breaking into Tier Four? Why was even the quasi-fifth-tier strength of Marquis Ice Bear not a match?! "No, that can’t be right." "The Marquis surely hasn’t used all his power." Some nobles began to comfort themselves, praying internally. Boom! Another clash erupted on the battlefield. Marquis Ice Bear, with all his might, finally broke through the ice power. Crack— A powerful cold aura emanated, freezing everything around it. Marquis Ice Bear’s figure paused for a moment, then shattered the ice, continuing to chase after the retreating David, seeking to seize the opportunity to end the battle. But as he stepped forward, he suddenly felt his movements stiffen, a chill invading his body, hindering his actions. "What’s happening?" Marquis Ice Bear was horrified. Across from him, David’s gaze sharpened, coldness in his eyes. Throughout the battle, he had been using the Cold Winter Curse ability granted by the newly acquired Snow Demon Spirit, and it was finally taking effect. The Cold Winter Curse could continuously slow down the opponent, and when accumulated to a certain extent, it could freeze them from the inside out!
