Chapter 157 Martial Soul Fusion Skill Ranking, Top Ten.
Just as the entire Douluo Continent was gripped by a new frenzy and anticipation due to the appearance of the Martial Soul Fusion Skill Ranking, at Beidou Academy, Lu Xiao, who had just returned, suddenly underwent a new change.
Two golden beams of light, far more condensed and imbued with the aura of rules than any previous reward beams, seemed to appear out of thin air and instantly entered his body.
This was the double reward from the Heavenly Curtain.
Gu Yuena's challenge failed, and the reward she should have received was stripped away.
He, however, received double the reward!
"Buzz!"
Lu Xiao's body trembled slightly, and his aura fluctuated uncontrollably.
His physique had directly doubled!
Although this reward wasn't a fundamental improvement for him, it still caused subtle but positive changes in his understanding and control of power attributes, and even his life essence.
He could feel that his power, which had just been stabilized at the third-level godhood level due to the reward, had become subtly more solid and profound.
But these weren't the things that excited him the most.
What truly made his eyes light up was the next reward that took effect – "50% increase in Martial Soul Compatibility!"
Double reward!
That is, a 100% increase in Martial Soul Compatibility!
This reward acted like the most magical catalyst, instantly affecting the Ancient Tree of Life and the Radiant Annihilation Sword Martial Soul within his body!
"Boom boom boom!"
Lu Xiao clearly "heard" the resonance of the two Martial Soul origins from the depths of his soul!
They were no longer as clearly distinct as before, one representing ultimate life and protection, the other representing ultimate destruction and god-slaying.
At this moment, under the effect of a perfect 100% Martial Soul Compatibility, the two seemingly opposing forces actually produced a mysterious and harmonious connection!
Life and destruction, creation and end, protection and god-slaying… the two completely opposite Martial Soul origins formed a subtle and stable dynamic balance within his body.
And they attracted and resonated with each other!
It seemed as if they could break through the boundaries at any moment, unleashing a terrifying power far exceeding the simple sum of the two!
"This feels like a self-fusion martial soul technique!"
Lu Xiao realized, a hint of surprise flashing in his eyes.
He hadn't expected that this reward from the Heavenly Curtain would directly help him break through that barrier, pushing his two top-tier martial souls to the brink of perfect fusion!
Now he only needed a little guidance and practice.
He would then truly master a powerful, unique self-fusion skill of his own martial soul!
However, when he focused his senses on the most mysterious and higher-level Creation God Ring martial soul within his body, he found it still quietly floating, radiating an aura that encompassed all things yet transcended the mundane. It did not show any obvious interaction with the Ancient Tree of Life and the Radiant Annihilation God-Slaying Sword martial soul.
"Sure enough, the level of the Creation God Ring is too high, or its essence is different, so it cannot form a 'fusion skill' with them in the conventional sense for the time being."
Lu Xiao was not disappointed; on the contrary, he felt that this was to be expected.
The power of creation should perhaps not be easily fused with mortal power.
He calmed his mind and felt the wonderful connection between the new power surging within his body and his martial soul.
Looking up at the sky that foreshadowed the announcement of the new rankings "three days later," a playful smile appeared on his lips.
"Martial Soul Fusion Skill Ranking, I originally thought this ranking would have little to do with me."
Lu Xiao's gaze swept over Dugu Yan, Ye Lingling, and the others beside him who were excitedly discussing the new rankings. He then passed by Li Bai, Lü Bu, and others who were drinking in the distance.
"It seems that Beidou Academy is going to dominate the rankings again!"
Lu Xiao thought to himself.
After all, there were still spirit fusion skills among the students and teachers of Beidou Academy.
He suddenly felt a sense of anticipation for the rankings three days later.
He wanted to see what kind of impact these spirit fusion skills from Beidou Academy would have on the outside world when they appeared on the list.
Spirit Hall.
"Ghost, did you see that?"
"Spirit Fusion Skill Ranking! It's our area of expertise!"
Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan rarely lost his composure, grabbing Ghost Douluo Ghost's arm.
His voice was somewhat high-pitched with excitement.
Ghost's face, which was usually hidden under the black mist, seemed to show a smile as he said in a hoarse voice.
"We saw it, the Bipolar Stillness Domain... This time, we will definitely make a name for ourselves on the continent!"
On the Pope's throne.
Bibi Dong looked at the two excited elders below, and a rare smile of relief appeared on her face.
In her opinion, Yue Guan and Ghost's "Bipolar Stillness Domain" was indeed a divine skill!
Especially in terms of control, it was almost unbeatable.
With their current level 96 strength, the power of their Spirit Fusion Skill is enough to threaten even level 97 or 98 Super Douluo!
Among known Spirit Fusion Skills, it is definitely among the top.
"Your Spirit Fusion Skill is extremely powerful, especially a Title Douluo-level Spirit Fusion Skill!"
"As far as I know, currently on the continent, it seems that only the two of you have reached such a level and possess such remarkable power," Bibi Dong said slowly, her voice encouraging.
"This ranking will likely take into account factors such as spirit compatibility, spirit power level, and the power and potential of spirit fusion skills."
"The two of you certainly have a strong chance of reaching the top."
"Reach...reach the top?"
Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo trembled with excitement upon hearing this.
They could almost see themselves becoming famous throughout the continent, revered by all.
Inside the Hall of Worship, the atmosphere was somewhat subtle.
"Hmph, it seems this ranking is just for Yue Guan and Ghostly Demon to make a name for themselves," said Demon-Slaying Douluo, carrying his Dragon-Panning Staff, with a hint of sourness.
While they were powerful individuals, they lacked spirit fusion skills.
Golden Crocodile Douluo said in a deep voice, "Their Polar Stillness Domain is indeed troublesome; even I have to take it seriously."
"Using this skill to reach the top three, or even challenge for first place, is certainly possible."
The usually silent Qian Daoliu's gaze seemed to pierce through the hall, looking towards the distant Beidou Academy.
"Don't jump to conclusions too quickly. Beidou Academy... is too mysterious. Who can say they don't have a hidden, even more powerful Martial Soul Fusion Technique?"
"Don't forget, those gathered there are monsters beyond the comprehension of ordinary understanding."
"Their Martial Souls are all powerful and bizarre. If they truly possess a Martial Soul Fusion Technique... its power would likely far exceed our imagination."
Qian Daoliu's words were like a bucket of cold water, causing Jin'e, Jiangmo, and other elders to shudder.
Yes!
How could they forget Beidou Academy, that gathering place of freaks?
How many "impossibilities" had they broken before?
"Brother is absolutely right."
Jin'e Douluo nodded solemnly. "We must prepare for the worst."
"This Martial Soul Fusion Technique ranking probably won't be as simple as we expect."
Star Dou Great Forest, Lake of Life.
The heavily injured Gu Yuena, under Bi Ji's healing, had her breathing stabilize slightly. She looked at the forecast on the sky, her purple eyes icy cold.
"Soul Fusion Techniques, human tricks."
"My lord, this list is of no benefit to us soul beasts, but it can be used to identify those among humans who possess threatening soul fusion techniques with unique combinations."
Di Tian's weak voice carried disdain, but was more so solemn.
Gu Yuena nodded slightly, her voice cold: "King of Ten Thousand Demons, keep an eye on the list. For those listed, especially those with high potential and high threat levels, gather as much information as possible."
"If there is an opportunity in the future... eliminate them first."
"Yes, my lord!"
King of Ten Thousand Demons replied respectfully.
Soul beasts have fought with humans for countless years and know how threatening such soul fusion techniques are.
Three days!
Amidst the eager anticipation of countless soul masters and the secret calculations of various forces, time passed quietly like a fleeting moment.
Deep within the Beidou Academy.
Lu Xiao was in a quiet room.
He was carefully comprehending the mysterious connection between the Ancient Tree of Life and the Radiant Extinction God-Slaying Sword.
He was trying to guide the nascent fusion power.
He also wanted to know about his unexpectedly acquired "Self-Soul Fusion Technique."
Where will it rank on this list that gathers the essence of the continent?
Above the sky.
"Boom boom boom!"
The milky white light, which had been silent for three days, suddenly surged and expanded violently, like a sacred fire being ignited!
The light was no longer gentle, but carried a declarative majesty and sacredness.
Instantly, it attracted the attention of all living beings on the entire continent!
"It's about to be announced! The Martial Soul Fusion Skill Ranking is about to be announced!"
"Look at the sky!"
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the milky white light did not directly condense into a ranking.
Instead, lines of clear and ancient text composed of light flowed from the center of the sky, explaining the rules and characteristics of this ranking.
[Martial Soul Fusion Skill Ranking]
[This ranking includes and evaluates the ten strongest Martial Soul Fusion Skills currently existing and hidden on the Douluo Continent.]
[Evaluation Scope: Covers discovered Martial Soul Fusion Skills, as well as Martial Soul Fusion Skills that have not yet appeared.]
[Ranking Criteria: A comprehensive assessment considering the instantaneous burst power, sustained combat ability, growth potential, soul fusion skill compatibility (including soul power, mental power, and spiritual affinity), and the soul master's current cultivation level, etc.]
This brief explanation of the rules once again shocked all the spectators!
"Undiscovered soul fusion skills can also make the list? The Heavenly Screen can even predict this?"
"Considering so many factors... this evaluation is indeed comprehensive and fair!"
"Let's begin! Who's in tenth place?"
The crowd buzzed with discussion!
At that moment!
The brief explanation of the ranking rules on the Heavenly Screen slowly faded away.
