"This is..."
"Netherworld White Tiger!"
Looking at Wu Siduo's current state, Gu Yue's face showed a trace of astonishment. Among the renowned Martial Soul Fusion Skills in this world, the Netherworld White Tiger undoubtedly stood at the forefront.
As far back as twenty thousand years ago, the Netherworld White Tiger duo had debuted as members of the original Shrek Seven Monsters and had remained active ever since. In every era, this combination had made its presence known.
But Wu Siduo was alone!
"This is..."
"A single-person Martial Soul Fusion Skill?"
At this moment, even Gu Yue couldn't help but express her amazement, clicking her tongue in admiration.
Though Wu Siduo's cultivation level was inferior to theirs, she had to admit—this human genius was quite intriguing.
An example like this might only appear once in tens of thousands of years!
"Martial Soul Fusion!"
"Yangzi, Jin Xi, this person actually completed Martial Soul Fusion all by herself!"
While Tang Luochuan and Gu Yue remained relatively calm, Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Wei Xiaofeng were anything but. Their eyes widened in shock as they exclaimed.
Martial Soul Fusion Skills were rare, but not unheard of—they had encountered them before. Not to mention, their teammates Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi were living examples.
But...
A single-person Martial Soul Fusion Skill? That was just too absurd!
"Self-contained Martial Soul Fusion Skill..."
"Is that even possible?"
Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi exchanged glances, both inhaling sharply. As the team's Martial Soul Fusion Skill practitioners, their shock surpassed everyone else's.
A Martial Soul Fusion Skill required two Soul Masters whose Martial Souls had extremely high compatibility. When they came into contact, their Martial Souls would fuse, unleashing immense explosive power.
Generally speaking, below the Titled Douluo level, it could unleash strength surpassing the current realm.
For example, Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi's Dark Eagle Dragon could instantly defeat everyone in the team except the Tang Luochuan brothers and Gu Yue.
However, the energy consumption was equally terrifying. Even a brief activation would drain both participants significantly, making it a trump card reserved for critical moments.
But Wu Siduo had achieved Martial Soul Fusion alone...
This wasn't just unheard of—it was unimaginable! How could such a genius exist?
"Wu Siduo..."
"She's truly terrifying!"
The group couldn't help but marvel. Wu Siduo's talent was no less extraordinary than Tang Luochuan's trio—equally unbelievable.
But at the same time, it meant Wu Siduo was dead serious about defeating their leader!
"Self-contained Martial Soul Fusion Skill..."
"Quite an impressive talent."
Yet, as he faced the Netherworld White Tiger before him, Tang Luochuan merely smiled faintly, showing no intention of making a move.
"Tang Luochuan..."
"You're far too arrogant."
Seeing Tang Luochuan's indifferent demeanor, Wu Siduo burned with fury. This guy...
Had absolutely no respect!
Even if he truly possessed remarkable talent—even if he was a genius surpassing her—he shouldn't act like this! And even if his talent exceeded hers...
There was no way his strength could surpass hers!
With that thought, Wu Siduo's figure vanished in a flash, lunging toward Tang Luochuan. Though the Martial Soul Fusion Skill was powerful, it drained her even more...
She had to end this quickly.
First battle as the final battle, one victory over Luo Chuan!
"Arrogant? Not really."
Tang Luochuan shook his head, facing the Netherworld White Tiger before him without a trace of fear.
Against such a powerful attack, he didn't employ any defensive measures—he simply extended his hand.
When the massive tiger claws came crashing down, they met an enormous dragon claw instead, instantly halting their advance and even being repelled dozens of meters backward.
This was the might of his Dragon King bloodline. Even without revealing it fully, injuring him with a beast-type Martial Soul was far too difficult.
"How is this possible?"
Witnessing this scene, Wu Siduo felt a wave of confusion. Her attack had been forced back by a single claw from him?
This was a Martial Soul Fusion Skill—one that had never shown weakness even when she faced a Soul King in Star Luo City!
And...
Had he not even used a Soul Skill?
"Tang Luochuan! Stop holding back against me. Show me, let me witness your most powerful technique!"
Wu Siduo snorted coldly and shouted.
"Hmm..."
"Very well."
Tang Luochuan wore a thoughtful expression. This was the first time he had heard such a request. Since that was the case...
After all, this was a rare virtual space where battles wouldn't affect reality. If she had such a desire, he saw no reason to refuse. He would grant her wish.
"Fifth Soul Skill..."
"Golden Dragon Shatters the Heavens."
Tang Luochuan calmly walked toward her, merely extending a single finger as the energy of the world seemed to converge within it.
With a fleeting flash of red light, a tremendous impact surged toward her.
Fifth Soul Skill—Golden Dragon Shatters the Heavens.
This was a Soul Skill granted to him after his Soul Spirit advanced past 100,000 years. Even weakened to its absolute limit and condensed into a single finger, it still contained immense power.
At this moment, time seemed to stand still.
When the energy from that finger struck, the Netherworld White Tiger didn't pause for even an instant, nor was it sent flying as before.
Instead, in the eyes of the onlookers, its entire body grew translucent, as though it would vanish from existence the next moment.
"You..."
Wu Siduo's words caught in her throat as her Netherworld White Tiger form flickered into transparency. Struck by the overwhelming force, she reverted to her human form.
Weakly sitting up, her gaze fixed on Tang Luochuan, her face filled with disbelief. What kind of terrifying Soul Skill was this?!
"You..."
But before Wu Siduo could say anything more, she felt the scene before her gradually pixelating into data—and soon, her figure completely disappeared.
"The boss is still the boss after all."
Watching this unfold, the others nearby smiled faintly.
"Just now..."
"He was practically going easy on her."
Beside them, Gu Yue observed the scene with a thoughtful expression, though she let out a soft snort.
She was well aware of Luo Chuan's Fifth Soul Skill, Golden Dragon Shatters the Heavens—its true explosive potential was far beyond what had just been displayed.
Not to mention the absurdity of him only extending a single finger. Luo Chuan had really gone easy on her!
"Hmm? Not really."
"I just held back a little."
Tang Luochuan was momentarily stunned upon hearing this and quickly replied, "Of course I'll hold back. After all, the Golden Dragon King Bloodline isn't like the Silver Dragon King—it's far too domineering and powerful."
"Oh?"
"I only pulled back a little..."
Gu Yue snorted lightly. Luo Chuan was really something—that girl had gotten so close to him, yet he was still being so merciful.
Couldn't he be a bit fiercer?
This was just too much.
"She clearly wanted a one-on-one fight with you so badly, and you were being so considerate, Luo Chuan!" Gu Yue thought to herself, a hint of irritation in her heart.
"Tang Luochuan's team persists till the end."
"The competition is over."
With Wu Siduo's departure, only Tang Luochuan's team remained in the arena. Soon after, a spatial gate appeared before them.
As the victors, they could naturally leave with grace. Without hesitation, Gu Yue strode toward the gate with light steps.
"Why is Gu Yue (older female) angry?" the others wondered aloud, confusion written on their faces.
"This..."
Tang Luochuan looked innocent as he glanced in Gu Yue's direction. He truly hadn't done anything wrong.
"Brother."
"Be honest with me—what's going on between you and that Wu Siduo..."
Beside him, Tang Wulin turned toward his brother with a thoughtful expression and spoke bluntly.
"..."
"What are you thinking?!"
Tang Luochuan lightly rapped his brother's head, then sighed helplessly as he glanced in the direction Gu Yue had gone before chasing after her. The group soon left the space together.
"Everyone's out now."
"Let's all return to class."
Shen Yi's gaze settled on Tang Luochuan's group as they emerged last, a faint smile on her face, showing little surprise.
"I..."
"Lost..."
Meanwhile, Wu Siduo stepped out of the cockpit with a dejected expression.
Her eyes turned toward Tang Luochuan, recalling the earlier impact. A trace of humiliation flickered across her face, mixed with incomprehension.
One finger—just one finger.
How strong was he, exactly? Even a single finger carried such overwhelming pressure—what if he had gone all out?
And that fleeting red circle earlier, that red...
"Don't tell me..."
"That was what I think it was..."
A thoughtful glint flashed in Wu Siduo's eyes before she froze in place, murmuring to herself.
With these thoughts in mind, she strode purposefully toward Tang Luochuan's group, clearly intent on getting answers.
"Gu Yue, are you... jealous because I went easy on her?"
Tang Luochuan kept pace beside Gu Yue, his voice soft.
"Who's jealous?" Gu Yue turned her head away. If he could tell, why ask? Luo Chuan really was a detestable guy!
With that thought, she quickened her steps.
"Really not jealous?"
Tang Luochuan caught up and gently took her hand. This little Silver Dragon King—she really was his little tsundere.
"Hmph..."
"Do whatever you want. It's not like I can stop you."
Meeting Tang Luochuan's calm gaze—as if he had her completely figured out—Gu Yue lightly pulled her hand free and jogged ahead to her seat in the classroom.
"Hey, Tang Luochuan..."
"Uh, what's going on with you guys?"
Wu Siduo hurried back to the classroom and, upon reaching her seat, immediately called out to Tang Luochuan, only to...
Looking at the two people before her, whose expressions were unusually calm and gentle, a thoughtful happiness appeared on her face.
"Um..."
"Gu Yue, are you okay?"
She couldn't help but ask.
"No, no. Luo Chuan, Wu Siduo has something to ask you."
Gu Yue shook her head, then glanced at Tang Luochuan on her left and spoke lightly.
"Mmm..."
"Actually, I'm not in a hurry. If you two have something to deal with, you can handle it first."
"After all, you're boyfriend and girlfriend..."
Hearing this, Wu Siduo quickly shook her head. The closeness between these two was something she had witnessed firsthand. Perhaps...
Had they touched on some topic that caused displeasure?
"Huh?"
"Who's his girlfriend..."
At the mention of this title, a glimmer of amusement flashed in Gu Yue's eyes, but she quickly suppressed it, shaking her head expressionlessly and scoffing lightly.
Luo Chuan, why do you care what others think?
She wouldn't acknowledge this troublemaker—not unless he properly confessed to her face. Only then might she reluctantly agree~
"Oh..."
"So... you're not?"
Wu Siduo nodded thoughtfully, a hint of realization in her eyes as she silently mused to herself.
So...
They weren't? (Suddenly enlightened)
