Assimilation Fusion

Huo Yuhao slowly opened his eyes and saw Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao glaring at each other.

They looked ready to start fighting at any moment.

"If you're going to fight, hurry up and do it!"

Huo Yuhao pulled out a bag of popcorn, turning into a spectator who loved nothing more than watching chaos unfold.

Hearing Huo Yuhao's voice, Xiao Xiao instantly changed expressions and said with a sweet smile:

"Brother Yuhao! You've wronged me! I'm so cute, how could I possibly fight?"

"Unlike that pathetic man Wang Dong, who was just trying to bully me!"

"Green tea bitch!!"

Wang Dong gritted her teeth.

"What nonsense are you talking about? Clearly, just now you—"

"Just now what? You're a boy, so why are you arguing with a girl like me?"

"But the facts—"

"Setting the facts aside, don't you have any fault at all?"

"..."

Wang Dong was left speechless.

Xiao Xiao's fist-fighting rhetoric had reached the pinnacle of mastery. She was no match for her at all!

Huo Yuhao was stunned as well.

The legacy of the online female boxing warriors from his past life had somehow been inherited by Xiao Xiao.

Just two sentences, yet it was like Garen buying Last Whisper.

Silent and utterly shattered!

Seeing the two glare at each other again, looking as though they were about to fight once more,

Huo Yuhao stepped in to mediate. "All right, all right."

"Stop arguing. Xiao Xiao, what did Old Zhou say?"

"Okay, Brother Yuhao." Xiao Xiao smiled sweetly and said:

"Teacher analyzed our opponents for us. It'll still be quite difficult if we want to win the championship."

"There really are a lot of geniuses at Shrek!"

Wang Dong clasped her hands behind her head and laughed dryly. "What's wrong? Are the great geniuses with Twin Martial Souls already losing confidence just because the opponents are strong?"

Xiao Xiao let out an annoyed huff. "Of course I'm confident! But teacher Zhou said that three of the undefeated teams have Three-Ring Realm Soul Elders. How confident are you against a Soul Elder?"

Wang Dong exclaimed, "There are actually Three-Ring Realm Soul Elders among the Newcomers?"

Xiao Xiao nodded. "That's right. One undefeated team even has three Soul Elders in a single squad."

"Even teacher Zhou doesn't think very highly of us."

A team of three Soul Elders.

That hadn't existed in the original story either.

Was it the butterfly effect, or someone's scheme?

Huo Yuhao stroked his chin, his heart filled with doubt.

"So what if they're Soul Elders? We have our own advantages! It's not like we'll definitely lose!"

"You think I don't want first place?!"

"But our overall strength really is inferior to theirs!"

"..."

The two started arguing again, and Huo Yuhao held his head.

This pair of bickering enemies never went a single day without fighting.

"All right, all right."

"With me here, you won't lose. At worst, we can give up those two Soul-Raising Pills."

"Besides, I'm not lacking Soul-Raising Pills anymore."

Huo Yuhao chuckled.

Wang Dong nodded. "If Yuhao joins the fight, our chances of winning will be even greater."

Xiao Xiao clenched her fists excitedly. "If Brother Yuhao makes a move, the championship will definitely be ours!"

"We're the champions!"

Mimicry Forest

Blushing, Xiao Xiao said shyly, "Brother Yuhao, don't be so impatient... Of course, if you want it, I'll give it to you."

As she spoke, she eagerly closed her eyes and puckered her little lips.

Thump!

Huo Yuhao gave Xiao Xiao a rap on the head. "What are you thinking? I came to see you for something important."

Xiao Xiao covered her head, looking pitiful. "I was just joking."

"By the way, Brother Yuhao, what exactly did you want to see me about?"

Huo Yuhao crossed his arms and smiled. "I want to see whether the two of us can undergo Martial Soul Fusion."

"Martial Soul Fusion?"

Xiao Xiao was startled, then smiled. "Actually, I noticed it a long time ago. Every time I see you, my heart beats faster and my thoughts run wild. That must be because we can undergo Martial Soul Fusion!"

Hmm...

You were obviously just lovestruck.

Huo Yuhao smiled. "Then let's give it a try."

For the first trial, he had to find someone else to undergo Martial Soul Fusion with.

He would start with Xiao Xiao.

"Mm!"

Xiao Xiao nodded firmly, then summoned her Three-Lives Soul-Calming Cauldron Martial Soul. "Let's try the Three-Lives Soul-Calming Cauldron first."

"Okay."

The two embraced, and Xiao Xiao instantly became a little steam girl, white vapor billowing from above her head.

"I... I... I'm hugging Brother Yuhao!!!"

As time passed, their auras slowly emerged from within their bodies.

Two auras from Xiao Xiao, three from Huo Yuhao.

Of Huo Yuhao's auras, those representing Sky Dream Ice Silkworm and Elder Yi rejected Xiao Xiao's two auras representing her Twin Martial Souls.

The azure aura of Six Eyes completely ignored Xiao Xiao's aura.

Under such circumstances, Martial Soul Fusion was impossible.

The strange state suddenly vanished, and Xiao Xiao asked, "Did it work?"

Huo Yuhao shook his head. "It failed."

"How could that be possible!"

"We're a perfect match, made for each other. How could it fail!"

Xiao Xiao looked heartbroken as she kept rubbing her head against Huo Yuhao's chest.

Huo Yuhao: Your flat chest is digging into me!

Huo Yuhao pondered. "If Xiao Xiao doesn't work, then someone else. Ma Xiaotao, Tang Ya..."

"Their Martial Souls probably won't work either."

"No, no, my starting point was wrong. Does Martial Soul Fusion necessarily require compatible Martial Souls?"

"Perhaps I can do this..."

Thinking of something, Huo Yuhao suddenly said, "Xiao Xiao, let's try one more time!"

"Okay!"

Xiao Xiao nodded. She was unwilling to accept the fact that she could not undergo Martial Soul Fusion with Huo Yuhao.

The two were still embracing, and with their previous experience,

they quickly summoned their auras once more.

It was still the same as before. The two auras rejected each other, while Six Eyes' aura ignored them.

With a thought from Huo Yuhao, the aura of Six Eyes surged toward Xiao Xiao's aura.

Soon, Xiao Xiao's aura merged with the aura of Six Eyes.

No, more accurately, it was assimilation. The Six Eyes aura assimilated Xiao Xiao's aura into something similar to itself.

Xiao Xiao's breathing quickened as a comfortable sensation surged through her heart.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao confirmed that the prerequisite for Martial Soul Fusion had been fulfilled.

Unlike with Wang Dong, where the former was fusion, this was assimilation.

He released the aura assimilation state.

Xiao Xiao's aura returned to its original color.

"This time, it worked, right?"

Xiao Xiao asked excitedly.

Huo Yuhao nodded slightly. "More or less. Now let's try Soul Power fusion."

"Okay!"

The two sat cross-legged facing each other, their hands clasped together.

Their Soul Power continuously poured forth, flowing toward the space between their hands.

Huo Yuhao's Soul Power assimilated Xiao Xiao's Soul Power.

Azure Soul Power, as brilliant as a galaxy, appeared within both their senses.

"What?! The cultivation speed..."

"It doubled!!"

In Xiao Xiao's perception, her cultivation speed had doubled.

During their subsequent Soul Skill attempts, Xiao Xiao discovered in amazement that because of this mixed—assimilated—Soul Power,

the power of her Soul Skills increased by more than seven times, while the Soul Power consumption was reduced by half.

It had completely transformed into another extremely high-level, brand-new type of Soul Power.
