Actually, tepid means:
So, an opposite word could be: icy, cool, chilly, etc.
As for an opposite concept of 'middle', someone already asked this. Check the source.

The antonyms for tepid range from cool (the opposite of lukewarm) to icy. It's amazing, but when the word "tepid" is used as an adjective (as in describing someone), the antonyms are plentiful and "icy" is most used! Hope that helps a little! Have a wonderful evening! Annie

Some things are opposite, some things are not. Water drains the opposite way. Seasons are the opposite to the Northern Hemisphere. The night sky looks completely different as only the southern hemisphere star systems can be seen at night. The Moon looks the same no matter where you are on the earth. England sees the Big Dipper constellation, Aussies see the Southern Cross instead. We drive on the same side of the road as you do and follow similar rules. Our sense of humour (as seen in other answers here) and our language is often topsy turvy. Insults can become friendly greetings. Extreme politeness can be seen as elitest and subtely rude. England embraces a class system with lords and ladies and the like, Australia embraces an egalitarian culture where everyone is the same no matter what their station in life. England has a cold climate, Australia has a hot one. We are both constitutional monarchies.

Sure is ! Why--our Bears actually DROP out of the trees that's why we call em Drop Bears ! It is a lot different to England. The Sun you refer to actually shines here, unlike in England when you only see it in kids comic books. And the water you refer to is actually used by people here to shower with daily, unlike in England where a tepid bath for 2 minutes once a week is the norm. As for the clocks, we wind them forward and backwards at different times of the year so OUR Sun shines for longer every day. Now--you show me a Pom who can manage getting the Sun to shine on demand ? We are clever little Colonial buggers !!! Unlike your Queen, our Queen is called Tim and not Elizabeth and he is known as The First Bloke not HRH. Yep , it is a bit around the other way here, but apart from Tim, it's all good.

It could be something that is very hot or very cold, being the extremes of 'modertely warm' that 'tepid' means.
So we have:
Icy, frozen, frigid, etc., and
Stewing, boiling , etc.

There are two choices, its antonym can be COLD or HOT or any other variations of this, both are correct.
