Chapter 38 - Chapter 38: The World Sinks and Mires — He Only Watches!

However, Luo Yanglu did not think that Huo Yuhao currently possessed spiritual control rivaling that of a Title Douluo. He simply assumed it was the effect of his third spirit ability.

It hadn't been long since Huo Yuhao obtained his third spirit ring, and he didn't know its effect either. Moreover, his ice silkworm Spirit Soul was mutated, giving him the divine ability of Spiritual Detection and Sharing. Who could guarantee that it wouldn't produce other strange spirit abilities?

It might be a special spirit ability that enhances spiritual control...

After dealing with Gu Yuena's first wave of attacks, Huo Yuhao lightly tapped the ground with his toes and instantly shot forward, leaving a trail of afterimages behind him as he charged straight at Gu Yuena. His astonishing speed made Xie Xie question whether he himself was really an Agility Attack System Battle Spirit Master.

With his exceptional speed, Huo Yuhao was almost instantly before Gu Yuena. His right hand formed a fist and struck straight toward her abdomen.

But this seemingly sure-hit attack missed.

With a flash of silver light, Gu Yuena had already appeared ten meters away.

"Spatial element?"

Wei Xiaofeng's eyes widened.

Faced with Huo Yuhao, he had admitted defeat. That spirit power level alone had killed any thought of challenging him. But others hadn't yet. He had originally wanted to aim for third place and contend for second to compete with Gu Yuena. But after watching this battle, he had completely abandoned that idea.

Gu Yuena had used a full six types of elements, including the strange spatial element. There was simply no hope of defeating her!

Gu Yuena glanced in Luo Yanglu's direction, took a deep breath, and quickly formed a complex hand seal before her chest. The first and second spirit rings circled around her suddenly lit up.

A fiery red glow bloomed before her. At the same time, a cyan glow twined around it.

Wind and fire the two attributes complemented each other. The cyan wind element continuously enhances the fire's power, making it burn fiercer and fiercer. A one-meter-tall wind-fire took shape before her in an instant, emitting a raging aura that was suffocating.

And it didn't stop there. Even though Gu Yuena was not actively mobilizing her spirit power, the elemental forces in the air spontaneously converged, fueling the power of the wind-fire tornado.

The surrounding students exclaimed and quickly retreated.

Seeing this, Luo Yanglu was equally astonished. "Elemental Heart?"

Elemental attribute spirit masters were extremely rare. To become a strong one, one had to comprehend the Elemental Heart the true essence of the element.

Mastering the Elemental Heart meant that a spirit master could truly fuse with their martial soul, no longer relying solely on their own spirit power but also mobilizing elemental forces directly from the air, greatly enhancing their attack and defense capabilities.

A spirit master who could master the Elemental Heart at this age and for two elements at that he had never even heard of such a thing!

Thinking this, Luo Yanglu secretly rejoiced that he had become the teacher of Class One.

With so much elemental power being drawn upon, the power of the current wind-fire storm was already no less than the strongest spirit ability of a Four-Ring Battle Spirit Master. If Gu Yuena lost control of her spiritual power and it erupted, an ordinary Soul King wouldn't be able to save her opponent in time.

He wasn't worried about Yuhao. But if a teacher who didn't know Gu Yuena's strength rashly arranged her to fight someone else, and her opponent angered her, the consequences would be unpredictable.

Huo Yuhao looked at the attack before him, knowing that Gu Yuena didn't want to drag this out and intended to end the discussion quickly. His eyes flickered. A cold, dark light appeared on his palm. His vast spiritual power and Extreme Ice spirit power began to blend. His entire person was filled with an otherworldly temperament.

He would use... a little of his own power.

Just as the firestorm approached him, Huo Yuhao swung his palm, part of his essence, energy, and spirit.

Boom!

An intense elemental storm erupted. Under Huo Yuhao's deliberate control, the chill of the Extreme Ice did not spread but completely offset the fire elemental storm. The wind-fire twin tornadoes followed annihilated.

With a flash of silver light, Gu Yuena appeared before Huo Yuhao. Dozens of ice cones, radiating cold air, around her.

But before she could throw the ice cones, she was affected by the residual spiritual artistic conception in the area. Her thoughts solidified for a moment. A scroll seemed to unfold before her eyes.

Among the world of men stood a figure veiled in cool hues. He watched the crowds pass by, as if he existed in a different time, a different world—witnessing the years drift past, the rise and fall of countless lives…

The world was falling apart—and he simply watched!

"You're too modest." Huo Yuhao looked at Gu Yuena, who had stopped moving, and did not continuee fighting.

Neither of them had brought out their true strength, nor could they possibly fight with their true strength. He knew what Luo Yanglu wanted to know, and he had just tried it out for him during their close encounter. It was best to stop here.

Gu Yuena snapped back to reality, took a deep breath, and the ice cones around her dissipated into cold air.

Just now, she had truly been affected by that artistic conception. If she had been attacked, it would have been difficult for her to react in time.

But winning or losing didn't matter to her. What mattered more was the artistic conception of that spirit ability was this how this God King viewed the world?

It felt quite far from what she had imagined. She had thought he was more involved in the world...

"Are you two alright?"

Seeing them stop, Luo Yanglu walked over, examined them, and found no injuries, completely relaxed.

It was only then that he had time to think carefully about the battle just now.

That Huo Yuhao would directly withstand the firestorm had surprised him. What surprised him even more was the palm strike Huo Yuhao had delivered at the end.

The other students couldn't understand it, but Luo Yanglu knew exactly what that attack was.

It was a self-created unique skill!

Integrating one's own comprehension of their martial soul, spirit power, vitality, spiritual power, and even their will and emotions into a single entity, transforming them into a combat most suited to oneself this was a path that Title Douluo-level powerhouses would gradually explore.

The Eternal Clan's Unyielding Staff Technique in their Spirit Transmission Tower, Shrek's Crimson Dragon Douluo's Crimson Dragon Nine Forms, and so on — all of these fell into this category. The difference lay in what was integrated.

But regardless, those unique skills and unique skills were the ones most suited to the spirit masters themselves and could grow stronger along with them.

No wonder Yichen said he couldn't teach you. His self-created spirit abilities aren't suitable for you either. So this is the reason. Creating your own combat techniques at this age... You're really something, Yuhao. But to incorporate that kind of otherworldly artistic conception you really need to interact better with others.

Luo Yanglu sighed emotionally.

And Gu Yuena, who had comprehended the Elemental Heart for two elements — both of them were freaks through and through!

But they were the future of the Spirit Transmission Tower. The more freaks, the better!

After sighing for a moment, Luo Yanglu did not forget the purpose of having the two of them fight. He looked at Gu Yuena and said with a smile:

"Your understanding of your martial soul is very thorough, and you know how to use your advantages well. But it seems you haven't received enough basic training. Your combat experience is insufficient."

"When Yuhao closed in just now, he actually had ways to limit you and end the battle immediately. But he knew what I meant and didn't use Imitation or interference interference spirit abilities, allowing you to use the spatial element to evade."

"Your movements at that time showed no intention of dodging at all. You were only relying on your martial soul's inherent abilities, weren't you? Have you considered what would happen if that method went wrong?"

Gu Yuena: "..."

So that was it. Was this the point?

Strictly speaking, she really didn't have much combat experience, nor did she have much experience.

After all, she had lain in the Lake of Life and never come out. Where would she get combat experience?

But for god-level battles, what mattered more were laws. It was all about overwhelming force. So-called experience, while not useless, was not as useful as one might imagine.

However, Gu Yuena did not show her own thoughts. She listened humbly to the advice.
