First Encounter with a Martial Soul Fusion Skill

Yu Die covered her mouth and chuckled softly, her voice gentle with a trace of seduction. "Little brother, you never told us about your martial soul or Soul Power Level. It's only understandable that us sisters got the wrong idea, isn't it?"

Agility Attack System Spirit Masters and Power Attack System Spirit Masters were different. The former relied on their speed advantage to weave through enemies and launch piercing attacks, while the latter were more inclined toward direct confrontations.

Fortunately, Ning Tianchen had reacted in time. Otherwise, he truly would have fallen for their trick.

"Hehe, little brother, it seems you realized it a little too late."

Yu Die snapped her fingers, and the Scale Powder that had been dispersed through the air swiftly exploded.

The powder enveloped Ning Tianchen and Oscar.

Dragon Sword Guardian could not isolate the air. The Scale Powder was inherently fine dust and passed through the Sword Qi Barrier without obstruction.

Oscar reacted immediately. Inwardly marveling at Ning Tianchen's skill, he promptly tossed an Antidote Little Sausage into the latter's hand.

Even if butterfly-type martial souls possessed poison, their toxins could not possibly be as vicious as the poison of a Man Faced Demon Spider.

Though the effects of Oscar's Antidote Little Sausage were not especially strong, they were enough to handle it.

After eating the little sausage, the poison on the Scale Powder no longer affected either of them. Ning Tianchen held the Seven Kill Sword and watched his opponents warily.

He could not believe a single word Yu Die said. Otherwise, he would very likely fall into their trap.

"You two are more capable than I thought." Yu Die snorted softly.

She had never expected Oscar's sausages to have such an effect.

The poison in the Scale Powder was inherent to their martial souls, yet they had not developed in the direction of Poison Spirit Masters. They knew full well just how potent the Scale Powder's poison was.

First Spirit Ability, Azure Dragon Break.

Ning Tianchen raised his sword in an upward slash. Sword qi burst forth as the phantom of an azure dragon soared out, tearing through everything in its path.

The reason he had not chosen to attack first was to probe the depths of his opponents.

Now, it seemed that his decision had been entirely correct.

The two women were exceptionally experienced in combat. The blades formed from their butterfly wings naturally could not compare to actual swords and sabers.

Facing the Seven Kill Sword's spirit ability, the two of them unleashed Chopping Knife at the same time. Only after some effort did they manage to neutralize the attack.

"You didn't just enter the Soul Elder realm." Yu Die's brows gradually furrowed, and the seduction in her tone had long since vanished.

She could clearly sense from the earlier fluctuation of soul power that Ning Tianchen's Soul Power Level was only slightly lower than that of the two sisters. Moreover, he was not far from level thirty-four.

How could someone so young possess such strength?

Without giving the two women time to think, Ning Tianchen advanced with his sword.

He had long mastered the principles of swordsmanship: Walk-Transform-Spin-Flip, Light-Steady-Swift-Fast.

His footwork was swift and fierce as he ran, moving like a gentle breeze yet standing as steady as a mountain. As the Seven Kill Sword swung, it was like a breeze passing by—no sword could be seen.

The sisters found it difficult to withstand such a fierce and rapid assault and were forced to retreat again and again.

Though Ning Tianchen had not used a single spirit ability, every move and stance was no weaker than his First Spirit Ability.

The two women were horrified.

Amid the endless variations, they could see only sword light and not the man. How were they supposed to fight back?

Yu Die understood that Ning Tianchen had a complete inheritance of swordsmanship behind him. Otherwise, how could he achieve such mastery before even reaching fourteen years of age?

"His surname is Ning. Could he be a disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?" Cai Die began to speculate.

At that thought, she felt that the sword-type martial soul in Ning Tianchen's hand would indeed resemble the Seven Kill Sword if not for the dragon patterns on its surface.

Whether her guess was true or not, the battle continued.

With Oscar's soul power recovery sausages, Ning Tianchen did not fear exhausting his soul power at all. If this dragged on, their defeat would be inevitable.

Yu Die was not flustered. While fending off the attacks, she quickly came up with a plan.

She gave Cai Die a look. Without needing a word, the latter immediately understood what she meant.

After exchanging several dozen moves, Ning Tianchen could not help thinking, The coordination between these sisters is far too seamless.

His sword moves were already exceedingly sharp. Even a two-person team that had fought in the Great Soul Arena for years might not be able to hold out for this long.

These sisters seemed to share a single mind, their movements coordinated to perfection.

Unable to suppress them, and after several dozen more exchanges, they would surely devise a way to respond.

Ning Tianchen raised his brows slightly. He knew that he had to stop attacking now.

Otherwise, he would fall into a disadvantageous position.

Just as the thought of retreat arose in his mind, the twin sisters changed their tactics.

Instead of both resisting Ning Tianchen's assault, Yu Die alone held him off. Cai Die flew into the air, and her second yellow soul ring suddenly lit up.

Second Spirit Ability, Butterfly Wing Slash.

The Colorful Butterfly's wings transformed into chopping knives and slashed down simultaneously. A cold glint flashed across the wing blades before they unleashed nearly tangible blade light.

Sensing the situation above him, Ning Tianchen's sword movement paused for an instant.

Yu Die seized the opportunity and likewise used the Butterfly Wing Slash spirit ability.

Ning Tianchen had already intended to retreat, so he took the chance to pull away.

The two streaks of blade light missed their mark, and Yu Die's expression could not help turning grave.

Not greedily pressing an advantage in battle, advancing and retreating freely—was that really the awareness a young man should possess?

Even they could not possibly take the initiative to give up their attacking rhythm while holding such an advantage.

The fact that Ning Tianchen had evaded Butterfly Wing Slash clearly showed that he had already planned his retreat route before they used their spirit abilities.

In terms of strength, he was no weaker than them. In terms of tactics, he was eighteen streets ahead of them. How were they supposed to continue this spirit battle?

"Big sister, we can only use that move." Cai Die leaned close to her ear and spoke softly.

Without hesitation, Yu Die agreed.

As geniuses, they had no reason to admit defeat. Before they had exhausted every means, there was still a chance to turn things around.

Seeing Ning Tianchen "retire after achieving success," Oscar could not help giving him a thumbs-up. "Brother Tianchen, Niu Bi Ge La Si."

Ning Tianchen was not smiling. He said in a deep voice, "Oscar, prepare some sausages for me. Next, be ready to leave the arena at any moment."

He always felt that his opponents had an even more powerful move. The coming battle would only grow fiercer, and Oscar's presence on the field would only distract him.

Moreover, the spirit battle rules of the Great Soul Arena were nowhere near as strict as those of the Spirit Master Competition.

Even if Oscar's sausages were placed in a Soul Tool before the match and consumed during the battle, it would not count as a violation.

Oscar nodded heavily in response, continuously chanting incantations under his breath.

At the same time, the Cai Die sisters showed no intention of attacking.

The two women clasped their hands together, and multicolored light emerged from their bodies.

Their martial souls flew together in the air for a while, unexpectedly showing signs of fusion.

Their three soul rings each left their bodies and merged above their heads into six soul rings.

"This is... a Martial Soul Fusion Skill!" Ning Tianchen was inwardly shocked, and his right hand tightened around the sword hilt.

When Spirit Masters reached an extremely high level of mutual understanding, they had a chance of forming a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

Ning Tianchen estimated that the synchronization between Cai Die and Yu Die was at least eighty-five percent.

With such perfect coordination, the Martial Soul Fusion Skill they formed was bound to be extraordinarily powerful.
