Red Lotus Myriad Eyes, Scorching Flame Sky Light

The two separated briefly, and Ji Siyuan began to refine the Millennium Pine-Fir Ganoderma.

Huo Yuhao was busy understanding what had happened with Sky Dream Ice Silkworm.

Sky Dream Ice Silkworm was weeping in the Sea of Consciousness: "How could such power exist? Why was it able to sever my origin?"

It wailed to Huo Yutong: "This Ji Siyuan is problematic, he has a massive problem. There is an incredibly powerful force inside his body that directly slashed through my entire origin. I had originally saved that for Bingbing."

"Brother Sky Dream, can you tell me what exactly is going on? Siyuan just told me that we could dual cultivate."

Hearing how Huo Yutong addressed him, Sky Dream Ice Silkworm cried even harder. It repeated everything that had just occurred.

Huo Yutong was also speechless: "Brother Sky Dream, it's fine. Letting Siyuan take the lead is actually quite good. I can accept it."

Having lost its masculine spiritual origin, it was considering whether to go find Ice Emperor. This was a plan it could afford to abandon.

But the way Huo Yutong looked at Ji Siyuan made it unable to bear the thought: "To ensure you can be worthy of this brat, I'll gamble on it this one time!"

The powerful force prevented their Martial Soul Fusion Skill from achieving a one-hundred-percent effect.

Unless three strands of God King divine power descended from the God Realm here, no one could achieve a perfect fusion with Ji Siyuan's second martial soul.

However, this power also granted them the ability to cultivate rapidly.

Ji Siyuan had also learned the full story from Tang San and felt a bit of schadenfreude; Sky Dream Ice Silkworm had simply been asking for trouble.

He opened his eyes: "My soul power has reached level 17."

"So fast?"

Huo Yuhao was very surprised, after all, Ji Siyuan had only just reached level 16 two days ago.

With a spiritual treasure, it was within the realm of understanding.

At this moment, the two stared at each other, neither saying a word.

Huo Yuhao didn't know how to bring it up, and neither did Ji Siyuan.

Although dual cultivation was faster, they were a man and a woman, and both were well aware of the implications.

Ji Siyuan thought for a moment; it was better not to make Huo Yuhao be the one to speak.

Nine lotus seeds floated around his body: "Shall we dual cultivate? I just felt that our dual cultivation speed is much faster."

Did that even need asking?

Huo Yuhao had been waiting for exactly those words.

He went to Ji Siyuan's bed, sat cross-legged, and the two pressed their palms together to begin dual cultivation.

Under the enhancement of the lotus seeds and the Martial Soul Fusion, their cultivation speed was more than twice as fast as before.

For Huo Yuhao, it was impossible to even calculate the multiplier.

He had never experienced such a cultivation speed.

"Siyuan, why don't we give it a name? We can't just keep calling it a Martial Soul Fusion."

"Yuanhao?"

"No, no, that won't work." The 'Hao' character wasn't his real name, so how could he use it?

Ji Siyuan: "Forget it then, it's a bit awkward either way."

"But I want to commemorate it."

After thinking for a while, they decided to call it the Power of Yu-Yuan.

Usually, they still used the term dual cultivation to describe it.

Because for Ji Siyuan, it really was a bit awkward.

Possessing such powerful cultivation effects, they also wanted to try a true Martial Soul Fusion Skill, but they decided against it in the dormitory.

They decided to go to an open space outside tomorrow to unleash it.

After obtaining the Martial Soul Fusion Skill, Huo Yuhao also became more confident.

Apart from them, the person most affected was Xu Sanshi, who was preparing to stir up a soul duel.

Because he was about to suffer for it soon.

After parting ways with Ma Xiaotao, Xu Sanshi immediately sought out Bei Bei to discuss the matter.

"You want to challenge Siyuan and Yuhao? I'm telling you, absolutely not!" Bei Bei sternly rejected Xu Sanshi's idea.

Bei Bei: "A fifth-year student versus a first-year student? Xu Sanshi, how could you even suggest that?"

Xu Sanshi simply gave up: "If you say no, Bei Bei, go tell Senior Sister Ma Xiaotao yourself. I'm just the one executing the plan."

"Senior Sister Xiaotao? Why?"

"How would I know? I guess she wants to see if those two juniors are handsome." After being poked by Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi returned to his normal demeanor: "Senior Sister Xiaotao said Ji Siyuan has high talent and she wants to see it for herself. You know how it is, Inner Court disciples aren't supposed to make moves against the Outer Court."

Ji Siyuan and Huo Yuhao, who had almost been run over: ???

Constrained by Ma Xiaotao's tyrannical influence, Bei Bei could only choose to yield: "Fine, but I don't guarantee the mission will be completed."

"Good enough, let's just say the profits are split fifty-fifty."

"Two, three, five!"

"What two, three, five?"

Bei Bei: "Sister Ma Xiaotao is coming for Junior Ji Siyuan, so he naturally gets half. Yuhao is going up there to take a beating, so he deserves three parts. You can just earn a bit of hard-earned money."

"Hey, Bei Bei, that's not very loyal of you. Two parties involved, how does that become a two-eight split? Absolutely not, four-six!"

Bei Bei: "Three-seven, or there's nothing to talk about."

Xu Sanshi: "Fine, three-seven it is, but don't you dare try to take your share out of my cut!"

As experts in profiteering, the two immediately began to discuss the specific logistics.

In any case, Ma Xiaotao just wanted to see Ji Siyuan's flames.

The rest was just waiting for Bei Bei to make the arrangements.

At this moment, Ji Siyuan and Huo Yuhao had finished eating at the cafeteria and found a very suitable open space.

Huo Yuhao: "The lake water is mild; it's a perfect time for cultivation."

Ji Siyuan: "Don't forget, we're here to test our Martial Soul Fusion Skill."

When it came to diligence and hard work, he didn't lose to Huo Yuhao. However, every week or whenever he made a breakthrough, he would allow himself to relax to prevent his mental strings from snapping. Overall, he wasn't as grueling as Huo Yuhao.

"How do we do this?"

Although they didn't understand it, both of them had spiritual entities behind them.

Tang San and Sky Dream Ice Silkworm spoke in unison within their respective Sea of Consciousness: "Hug each other!"

Following the instructions, they embraced.

Their soul power was immediately drained.

A blazing fire emerged from Ji Siyuan's body, and a red lotus formed amidst the rolling flames.

A giant eye appeared on Huo Yuhao's body, then slowly etched itself onto the petals of the red lotus.

Then, the entire red lotus began to burn, and the image of an eye appeared on every single petal.

The lotus bloomed, scattering countless petals.

Those were not petals torn from a red lotus, but petals generated by flames. Every petal bore the pattern of an eye.

The fire burned, the eyes shone bright, and they pointed toward the lake.

Tens of thousands of petals, each marked with an eye, aimed at the vast Sea God Lake.

Within the pupils of the eyes, crimson flames burned, firing off a beam of fiery red light.

One petal with an eye did this, then ten, a hundred, until tens of thousands were doing the same.

The beams struck the surface of the lake, releasing a massive amount of heat in an extremely short time, evaporating that small area of the lake and creating a huge drop in water level, like a basin in a high plateau.

Then, the two of them collapsed on the open ground until they were found by a passing Wang Dong'er.

"Why are two grown men sleeping while hugging each other? Don't tell me you slept here yesterday, too."

She tried to pull them apart but found she couldn't: "I don't believe this."

After a few attempts, she decided to go find Wang Yan.

Helpless, Wang Yan could only take them to his office to rest.

It even became a piece of gossip (a joke) at the academy.

The two woke up under Wang Yan's watch.

"Speak, what exactly is going on with you two?"

Ji Siyuan: "Teacher Wang, we have a Martial Soul Fusion Skill! That's why we ended up like this, but we can't demonstrate it right now."

A Martial Soul Fusion Skill required a cooldown.

After listening to their explanation, Wang Yan chose to believe them. Such rare occurrences could come true, and mostly, he hoped they would.

"Then what is the name of your Martial Soul Fusion Skill?"

Ji Siyuan thought for a moment: "Red Lotus Myriad Eyes, Scorching Flame Sky Light."
