Come On, Show Us

Xie Yue's volunteering immediately drew everyone's attention.

At the end of the day, the main reason they had gathered here was to witness the Three Elements Fusion Skill.

Though they did not know what it was, Master Ratio had personally introduced it as an era-defining theoretical achievement to be unveiled to the world. They were all full of anticipation.

After the recent upheaval, they were even more eager to see the Three Elements Fusion Skill!

They had been utterly amazed by the Seven-in-One Soul Power Fusion Skill, yet in Master Ratio's hands, it had seemed like nothing more than children playing house.

Then what kind of miracle would the Three Elements Fusion Skill, personally introduced by Master Ratio, be?

Countless burning gazes turned toward Xie Yue as he stepped onto the stage.

A trace of coldness flashed through Shi Nian's eyes. The efforts of his entire life had been deemed so crude in Master Ratio's eyes. What made the Three Elements Fusion Skill worthy of shining even brighter?

He was unwilling to accept it. He wanted to see just what kind of damned thing it was!

Xie Yue bowed deeply to Ratio.

...He did not dare kneel, because he knew Dr. Ratio did not like being worshipped on one's knees.

"Dr. Ratio, I'm ready. It should be more convincing for me to demonstrate it directly than to say anything, right? Please allow me to do so."

Xie Yue respectfully sought permission.

"Don't waste time." Ratio folded his arms. The Plaster Head Sculpture gave a slight nod and yielded the center of the stage to Xie Yue.

Xie Yue took a deep breath and walked to the front of the stage.

He could feel the gazes of over a million people fixed upon him below.

Being the center of everyone's attention made the blood in his entire body boil.

But what made it even harder for him to calm down was the honor of standing here beside Dr. Ratio and unveiling the fruit of their theory to the world!

"Three Elements Fusion Skill!!!"

Xie Yue let out a low roar. In the next instant, four spirit rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple—rose from beneath his feet!

At the same time, a Moon Blade appeared in his hand!

"Now, I'll begin the fusion! Please do not look away!" As Xie Yue spoke, he let out a muffled grunt. The four spirit rings rapidly fused into one, then entered his body like a clay ox sinking into the sea.

At the same time, the soul power outside his body withdrew into him as well.

He transformed from a soul master radiating "light pollution" into an ordinary person holding only a weapon!

His aura began to recede. Though he had just displayed the strength of a Soul Ancestor, no one could sense it now.

He swung the Moon Blade in his hand, sending out a light wave slash over thirty feet long.

He then used his other three Soul Skills in succession. None of them required his spirit rings to light up before they could be activated!

"After using the Three Elements Fusion Skill, my martial soul, spirit rings, and soul power have all fused into one, breaking down their barriers. I can use Soul Skills whenever I want and interrupt them whenever I want!"

"Even if I were to face a Spirit King now, I would not fear them in the slightest!"

Xie Yue's expression was excited as he demonstrated again and again, allowing everyone to see clearly.

They saw it clearly. The million people present all saw it clearly.

Shock appeared in every pair of eyes.

Because this violated the laws of soul masters.

Whenever a soul master released their martial soul or used a Soul Skill, they had to release their spirit rings. Only when the spirit rings lit up could the Soul Skill be activated!

A principle passed down for tens of thousands of years had now been utterly shattered by Xie Yue!

A soul master who could unleash Soul Skills without releasing spirit rings was a born killer!

"My control over my martial soul has become far more refined, as though it were an extension of my limbs. My soul power no longer leaks away either, allowing me to unleash greater strength and faster speed!"

Xie Yue said excitedly.

He explained to everyone what he was feeling and the state he was in.

At that moment, the million people across the entire plaza gave no applause and made no sound. They merely stared at Xie Yue with incomparably fervent gazes.

They all had only one thought now.

Seven-in-One Fusion Skill? It was nothing but crap! It was not even worthy of carrying the Three Elements Fusion Skill's shoes!

The former was, in the end, merely derived from a Martial Soul Fusion Skill—a countless-times weakened imitation.

As for the Three Elements Fusion Skill, it was an era-defining theory that shattered the laws governing soul masters!

Not only the soul masters present—even ordinary people who knew anything about soul masters could understand just how earth-shattering Xie Yue's display was!

Shi Nian sucked in a breath of cold air. Watching Xie Yue's explanation, he suddenly felt empty inside.

Though he was clearly standing atop a high platform, he felt as if he had returned to the time when, as a child, he had first looked up at the night sky.

The stars above were dazzling and unreachable. As a person, an ordinary person, he was simply too small!

So small that he was not worth mentioning, destined to remain buried for a lifetime.

Shi Nian lowered his head. Just moments ago, he had still harbored complaints toward Ratio.

He had thought Ratio was putting on an act, becoming famous by stepping on him while refusing to cooperate and create a fine story together. After all, he had never truly intended to become his disciple and study under him.

Only now did he suddenly realize that Master Ratio had no need to put on an act at all.

His pitiful "pride" did not even warrant Master Ratio's instruction.

Just as he would never teach a child how to awaken a martial soul.

Spirit Kite Douluo's beautiful eyes widened as she looked at Ratio's figure and murmured, "This guy really does have some skills?"

Ning Fengzhi abruptly rose to his feet, and Sword Douluo beside him did the same. Their movements were perfectly synchronized.

Sword Douluo's eyes were as sharp as an eagle's as he stared at the stage and said solemnly, "His combat strength has definitely reached the level of a Spirit King! In actual combat, he may even be stronger."

"Ordinary soul masters must use spirit rings to release Soul Skills, and there is also loss when soul power is used."

"But he has almost none! This kind of fluidity is something ordinary soul masters cannot imitate! Fengzhi, this theory is far too important. Without Master Ratio, we likely would not have developed it even in ten thousand years."

Sword Douluo did not hold back his praise. To him, this was not praise at all, but simply a statement of fact!

Ning Fengzhi nodded slightly, his eyes burning with fervor.

"A true master..."

More and more people stood up, seemingly wanting to get closer and observe Xie Yue's changes more carefully.

The Hall Knights standing before the crowd had no choice but to raise their shields and form a wall of bodies to prevent the spectators from rushing forward!

Qian Renxue watched this scene, delight appearing on her face as well.

The smile at the corners of her lips was completely sincere.

Let's see who still dares talk about Brother Ratio now. Once the lecture is over, I'll go see that woman Bibi Dong and see what else she has to say! Qian Renxue thought happily.

At that moment, a voice rang out.

"Words alone prove nothing. Master Ratio, could you let us personally experience the enhancement brought by the Three Elements Fusion Skill? I, Yu Luomian of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, am willing to serve as this witness!"

Yu Luomian's voice echoed through the sky.
