Kong Deming gave the trial's requirements: defeat the Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen siblings!

Su Yu was rather helpless about this.

He had clearly rejected the siblings' challenge before, yet now he still had to fight them.

Was this fate?

In truth, Su Yu was not afraid of the siblings at all. If he were allowed to kill them, he even had the ability to defeat them instantly.

The Grafting Technique was quite powerful in low-level battles.

Below the Soul Ancestor realm, as long as Su Yu found an opportunity to spread Blue Silver Grass seeds into their vital areas, they would already have lost their chance.

Starting from the Soul Ancestor realm, one could already use Soul Power to form preliminary protection outside the body.

It could be regarded as something similar to protective aura. Of course, the strength of that protection naturally varied depending on the Soul Master's individual circumstances.

Once one reached the Soul Ancestor realm, it was already very difficult to spread Blue Silver Grass into an opponent's body.

But there was still hope. After all, not every Soul Ancestor would constantly expend Soul Power to protect their entire body.

The further one advanced, the stronger a Soul Master's defensive methods became.

Even if they were not a defensive-type Soul Master, once they reached the Titled Douluo realm, merely circulating Soul Power to protect their body would be enough that even Soul Emperors and Soul Saints might not be able to break through.

Methods that entered an opponent's body through the mouth or nose to unleash damage would naturally no longer work either.

But that was merely one technique for using the Grafting Technique. This Soul Skill was not limited to that use alone.

When combined with other powerful offensive Soul Skills, it could still wound enemies and inflict secondary damage.

Back to the point.

If the Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen siblings did not understand Su Yu, there was a possibility that Su Yu could defeat them instantly.

Even if he could not, Su Yu still had the ability to deal with the two of them.

All three of his soul rings had primarily enhanced his vitality. As a result, neither the amount of his Soul Power nor his recovery ability was inferior to theirs.

That was the advantage brought by life-attribute soul rings added to the limit.

Besides that, through his cultivation during this period, Su Yu's Mental Power had already surpassed that of Spirit System Soul Masters at the same level. It was even stronger than Xiao Hongchen's.

The purple radiance of the two condensed runes was incomparably dense. With Purple Qi constantly empowering him, both the quality and quantity of his Mental Power had become several times stronger than they had been three months ago.

His greatest weakness could only be that the life-attribute soul rings added to the limit had not granted him any offensive Soul Skills.

But Su Yu had made up for that by developing a large number of Self-Created Soul Skills.

The advantage was mine!

After analyzing everything, Su Yu was fully capable of defeating the siblings.

Su Yu's confidence made Kong Deming look at him in a new light.

Hopefully, this disciple could bring this old man even more surprises.

Kong Deming began to look forward to Su Yu's performance.

"Hmph! Do you think I, Xiao Hongchen, can be challenged whenever you feel like it?"

When Xiao Hongchen heard that Su Yu had come to challenge him, he immediately turned his head toward the sky, looking exceedingly proud.

"So, are you fighting or not?"

"I am!"

"Senior Sister Meng, will you join him?"

"Can I?"

Su Yu had assumed that his teacher's trial was to defeat both of them at once.

In his understanding, that truly counted as a trial for him.

After all, he was absolutely confident he could defeat either one individually. Only fighting one against two might be somewhat difficult.

The two possessed the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Red Dust Affection, which was what Su Yu feared the most.

"Before, I had no backing, so it wasn't convenient to reveal too much.

"But now, my teacher is the Sun Moon Empire's strongest backing. There's no need for me to hide anymore.

"Showing my talent will also be more beneficial to my development."

Su Yu decided to go all out this time.

"This brat wants to fight two against one?" Kong Deming said in surprise as he watched the three of them step onto the stage together and take positions on opposite sides.

On the temporarily constructed arena at the royal Back Mountain, Su Yu stood at one end while Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen stood at the other.

Jing Hongchen stood respectfully to the side, equally surprised by Su Yu's confidence.

He actually wanted to challenge Xiao and Meng, the siblings, at the same time.

Perhaps he did not know that the two siblings possessed a Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

"Hmph, Su Yu, you're too arrogant. You actually want to challenge both Meng and me at once," Xiao Hongchen said haughtily.

He turned back and reminded his sister, "Meng, don't make a move later. I alone can teach him a lesson!"

Su Yu had rejected him before, and now he had come back to challenge him.

No matter Su Yu's reasons, Xiao Hongchen felt that he had been looked down upon.

Xiao Hongchen decided to properly teach this newly arrived junior a lesson.

"The battle begins!"

Jing Hongchen was presiding over this match. He stepped beside the arena and announced the start.

The three immediately summoned their respective Martial Souls.

"Meng!"

Xiao Hongchen was still afraid that his sister would intervene, so he reminded her again.

He released his Three-Legged Golden Toad Martial Soul, four soul rings—two yellow and two purple—hovering at his side.

Of the four soul rings, the first three lit up simultaneously. In almost the blink of an eye, countless cannon barrels grew across Xiao Hongchen's body.

First Soul Skill, Metal Control!

It increased his control over metal and his affinity with the Metal Element.

Second Soul Skill, Gold's Boiling!

It placed his Soul Power in a boiling state, increasing the power of Soul Power used in that state, accelerating the use of other Soul Skills, greatly increasing his control over metal for a short period, allowing him to absorb, control, and use Metal Elements in the air, while reducing Soul Power consumption when using Soul Tools.

Third Soul Skill, Gold's Solidification!

It temporarily condensed the controlled metal and Metal Elements into metal. He could even use Mental Power to carve Soul Guidance cores, turning the controlled metal and Metal Elements into temporary Soul Tools.

It had to be said that Xiao Hongchen's Martial Soul and Soul Skills provided an almost perfect enhancement to his use of Soul Tools in battle.

Whether it was strengthening, consumption, recovery, or armament.

They had all been taken to the extreme.

Oh, right. His Fourth Soul Skill should also be a burst-type Soul Skill.

The instant the battle began, Xiao Hongchen had completed his armament.

Meng Hongchen released her Martial Soul. Her red hair turned white, and her blue eyes instantly became blood-red.

But she had only released her Martial Soul.

In her eyes, Su Yu had indeed been showing off just now.

Xiao Hongchen was already a high-level Soul Ancestor, with Soul Power as high as Level 48. Not long ago, he had successfully advanced to become a Level Four Soul Engineer!

Although he had not yet had time to replace all his equipment with Level Four Soul Guidance Cannons, with the skill of a Level Four Soul Engineer, even Level Three Soul Guidance Cannons could unleash greater power.

On the other side, Su Yu also entered his battle state.

Blue Silver Grass instantly spread from him to cover the entire arena!

The surging vitality brought joy to both body and mind.

Yet Xiao Hongchen, as his opponent, had his entire body tensed, sensing malice everywhere.

Blue Silver Domain!

After several years of exploration, Su Yu had preliminarily developed this Soul Skill.

The Blue Silver Grass scattered throughout the arena desperately rooted itself, drawing in energy to feed Su Yu in return.

At the same time, Xiao Hongchen finally erupted.

Boom boom boom boom boom!

A sky full of shells came hurtling toward him.
