And because they were in extreme cold weather, their sense of touch decreased, making them completely unaware!
"Is there poison on the blade?!"
Xu Mingzhi and Zhou Lanqing just realized this when they suddenly felt an increasingly intense sense of fatigue throughout their bodies.
"Hehehe, this is a Poisoned Needle. It can inject Soft Tendon Bone Stripping Poison into the target’s body upon hitting, causing a significant weakening of Constitution. Now it’s just the beginning. In a while, you won’t be able to use even a tiny bit of strength and will be at the mercy of others!"
Xu Mingzhi and Zhou Lanqing already felt the fatigue and were horrified upon hearing this. They were about to use Star Power to block the spread of the poison.
However, the enemy would not give them this opportunity. The sound of breaking wind rang out, and Feng Hao and Gao Ge already wielded their blades and charged over!
"Clang clang clang clang!..."
The two sides engaged in a high-speed fight. As excellent students of Flying Snow Academy, Xu Mingzhi and Zhou Lanqing were not lacking in strength.
However, over the past two days, they were first attacked by a wolf pack, and now they were poisoned in an ambush. Facing Gao Ge and Feng Hao, who were well-rested, they quickly fell into a disadvantageous position, with the situation worsening!
Xu Mingzhi knew this was not a solution, and immediately shouted: "Lanqing!"
"Alright!"
The two had a tacit understanding. Without Xu Mingzhi needing to say more, Zhou Lanqing understood his intentions and immediately retreated several steps with Xu Mingzhi covering him, while he rapidly performed Sealing.
Star Power surged, and within moments, eight solid Cold Ice Chains shot out from around Zhou Lanqing, entangling Feng Hao and Gao Ge!

Feng Hao and Gao Ge retreated while gathering Star Power, slashing at the Cold Ice Chains.
"Cold Wind!"
"King’s Command!"
"Clang clang!"
To their surprise, their full strikes only left shallow marks on the Cold Ice Chains!
Their expressions changed, and they were about to retreat rapidly.
However, the chains had already bound them. Trying to withdraw now would be too late.
Zhou Lanqing’s heart relaxed slightly. Fortunately, these two were not cautious. This move was a Master Level blue sealing Skill!
"Xu Mingzhi, hurry, the two of them can’t be bound for long!"
Xu Mingzhi didn’t waste words. Star Power surged around him. Frost Snow Roar, the surging Ice Star Power instantly filled the surroundings!
"Thorny Hell!"
Xu Mingzhi roared. Suddenly, a bright blue glow appeared on the hundred-meter ground.
The next moment, countless terrifying 5-6 meter long Ice Thorns erupted from the snow, piercing everything and turning it into a hell of ice!
"Whoosh..." Zhou Lanqing exhaled looking at the pierced Gao Ge and Feng Hao, "That was close..."
But at this moment, from the pierced bodies of Gao Ge and Feng Hao, countless snowflakes suddenly flew up.
"Something’s wrong!"
Xu Mingzhi’s pupils shrank. Through the dense Ice Thorns, he saw the bodies of the two enemies turning into countless snowflakes and scattering.
"It’s Snow Transfer Skill!"
Not far from Thorny Hell, a large number of snowflakes gathered, forming two snowmen.
As the snowflakes fell off, the snowmen turned into Gao Ge and Feng Hao.
As the Ice Thorns gradually dissipated, Xu Mingzhi and Zhou Lanqing saw the untouched Gao Ge and Feng Hao outside, their hearts sinking to the extreme.
"Damn, cunning opponents!" Xu Mingzhi couldn’t help but curse.
It was obvious that the two opponents deliberately got bound by Zhou Lanqing’s Cold Ice Chains, then used Snow Transfer Skill to escape, tricking them into using a costly ultimate move.
Green Skill, Snow Transfer Skill. As long as you set a transfer mark on accumulated snow within a certain distance, you can transfer to the mark at a critical moment.
At this time, the Soft Tendon Bone Stripping Poison in Xu Mingzhi and Zhou Lanqing’s bodies deepened, making them weaker and weaker.
Gao Ge and Feng Hao exchanged looks and then continued to charge!
"Looks like we don’t need to intervene."
On a nearby hillside, Wang Dongqiang looked at the battlefield where Xu Mingzhi and others were fighting, smiling leisurely.
Fan Sanmei nodded: "Those two students have some strength, but their mentality is still lacking. Once pressured by Gao Ge and Feng Hao, they didn’t even probe and directly used their ultimate moves."
In battles with equal strength, "probing" is very important. Throwing out a big move right away can be easily countered by someone’s small skill, losing a significant advantage.
Especially among different Card Masters, abilities and skills vary greatly. What you think is a powerful ultimate move might not affect the opponent much.
Of course, contrary to probing, "throwing a big move upon meeting" can also have miraculous effects, potentially ending the battle immediately, although it carries high risk. How to choose depends on the Card Master’s judgment.
Besides probing, tactics, mentality, observation, adaptability—these are part of "battle skills." Some people are born with it, while others develop it through battles, striving to reach a certain extremity.
Under normal circumstances, even if Xu Mingzhi and Zhou Lanqing couldn’t spot the transfer marks, they wouldn’t hastily use control skills and Thorny Hell.
But now, they were first ambushed and poisoned by Gao Ge and Feng Hao, making them very anxious.
"Looking at the current situation, the battle will end in at most ten minutes." Wang Dongqiang observed the battlefield.
Fan Sanmei nodded, her gaze falling on Feng Hao’s lewd smile, frowning with disgust.
"Can’t teach an old dog new tricks... Wang Dongqiang, you won’t turn out like him, will you?"
Wang Dongqiang touched his nose and coughed: "Of course not, Sanmei, I have you, don’t I?"
"Who knows! Men’s words are deceitful. I think you men are all the same!"
Wang Dongqiang smiled bitterly: "Sanmei, you’re really wronging me!"
Wang Dongqiang was about to explain but suddenly noticed something, sensing slightly: "The Flying Snow Mark shows movement. Looks like someone is coming, Sanmei, check the situation."
Fan Sanmei nodded. She performed Sealing in front of her, snowflakes flying from the ground, condensing into a Snow Mirror.
"Looks like students too. One is Silver Middle Stage, the other... I can’t tell."
Wang Dongqiang laughed: "If we can’t tell, it doesn’t matter. At most, they are Silver High Stage. Judging by their direction, they seem to be heading toward Gao Ge and Feng Hao..."
Fan Sanmei nodded, about to speak, when suddenly, the young man in the Snow Mirror turned, eyes meeting hers.
"Eyes met," the indifferent silver pupils made Fan Sanmei shudder.

"Hmm?!" Fan Sanmei’s face changed, exclaiming in a low voice, "Did he discover us!"
"Shouldn’t have... Sanmei, your Snow Mirror Peeping is Perfect Level. In this environment, even Gold Level can’t detect it, let alone a Silver Stage.
See, he just glanced and turned away, probably just a coincidence."
"A coincidence..."
Fan Sanmei frowned, uncertain.
Wang Dongqiang laughed: "They’re almost at Gao Ge’s battlefield. Should we capture them?
Two Silver Middle Stage students. Even stars of Black Snow Country, they won’t be much trouble."
Fan Sanmei looked at the silver-eyed youth, unease growing within.
Fan Sanmei bit her lip: "Let’s... forget it?"
"Hmm?" Wang Dongqiang was stunned, "Sanmei, what’s up? Let go of such prey, it’s not like you."
Fan Sanmei shook her head: "I don’t know, just have a bad feeling."
Wang Dongqiang laughed: "What could go wrong? Boss Chen is on the hill behind us!"
Seeing Fan Sanmei frowning, Wang Dongqiang scratched his head.
"Letting them go is fine, but we need to block them. Letting them go further, they’ll reach Old Gao and Haozi."
Fan Sanmei nodded: "Alright, but remember, don’t act without my order!"
Wang Dongqiang chuckled: "Got it!"
