Battle Through the Heavens II: Three Phases of Peerless Power, One Soul and Four Bodies

With faces full of doubt and anxiety, even the Shrek Academy members and the leader of the Sun Moon Academy team had their eyes fixed on the arena, eager to find out what was going on.

No one knew that all the changes had been secretly concealed by Luo Ranyu within the fire sword in her hand.

At this moment, the fire sword had already gathered its power. Beneath the sword, the power of the void and the fire element quietly intertwined. With just a thought from Luo Ranyu, she could drive the air in the space in front of her to suddenly condense, then use the power of the void to decompose the air molecules into the finest particles, and finally use the power of the fire element to drive the particles to collide violently.

A devastating explosion was imminent. This was the move he had created by fusing his three-phase martial soul and three-element martial soul, called Void Explosion!

Inside the arena, when Luo Ranyu saw Meng Hongchen attacking with the Ice and Fire Poison Dragon Drill, Luo Ranyu's eyes flickered slightly, her sword pointed to the sky, her thoughts focused on the direction Meng Hongchen was charging towards.

No one could see that right in front of Meng Hongchen, the air there suddenly seemed to vanish.

But Meng Hongchen's speed at this moment far exceeded Luo Ranyu's expectations. Just as the void explosion was about to be triggered, she had already broken through the void barrier and reached the front of the explosion point.

The next second, "Bang—!!"

A deafening explosion echoed through the sky, and a wave of dizziness overwhelmed Meng Hongchen's consciousness as she hurtled towards him from the air, causing her to lose consciousness. Even then, Meng Hongchen's forward momentum remained undiminished; her body transformed into a wine-red human cannonball, hurtling towards Luo Ranyu.

In that instant, Luo Ranyu felt only, "It's over!"

The reason for this thought is that Luo Ranyu just released 60% of the energy of the Martial Soul Fusion Technique from the Fire Sword, and the power seemed a bit too great.

Because he could sense that the Void Explosion, a martial soul fusion skill formed by the combination of fire element and void phase, although it had damage, was not a soul skill that was mainly used to deal damage. It was mainly used to cause stun, knockback and other control effects to the enemy, and could also interrupt the opponent's soul skill and dissipate their soul power.

But... no buts, right now Luo Ranyu just wants to dodge this human cannonball.

"The Path of Space!"

The moment Meng Hongchen collided with Luo Ranyu, Luo Ranyu's spatial path also took effect. At the other end of the spatial path, Luo Ranyu set up a position in mid-air, because his line of sight was facing the sky at that time.

Since it's all about dodging damage, it doesn't matter where you dodge to.

The next second, Luo Ranyu appeared in mid-air, but strangely, Meng Hongchen was also teleported over, but her potential energy was not reduced as a result.

So even in her dizzy state, she still lunged at Luo Ranyu, "Damn it!"

Luo Ranyu hadn't expected her to teleport over as well, and was immediately pinned down by her rapidly falling body. Her soft, wine-red hair brushed against Luo Ranyu's cheek as the two continued to hurtle towards the ground.

Fortunately, Luo Ranyu reacted quickly. Her three spirit rings lit up instantly, and her phase changed to shadow phase. Then, her first spirit ring lit up, and a huge shadow emerged from the ground. A massive shadow rose from the ground, opened its blood-red maw, and roared! It swallowed the two of them whole.

"Sister!" Upon seeing this, Xiao Hongchen slammed his hand on the table and stood up.

"Ah!" Hua Xi'er was so startled that she covered her mouth, and the little butterfly on her head flew away because of her sudden movement.

That shadow monster was the Shadow Fang that Luo Ranyu had used before, but now it was more than six or seven times larger than before, and its appearance was even more ferocious and terrifying.

It slowly landed on the ground and remained motionless. The entire audience fell silent instantly, everyone staring intently at it, their hearts filled with doubt and trepidation.

What happened to the two people inside?

One second, two seconds, three seconds... After several more arduous seconds of waiting, the shadow monster finally slowly writhed, transforming into wisps of shadow that disappeared into the ground.

Everyone looked over and saw Meng Hongchen sitting on the ground, holding her forehead with both hands, shaking her head repeatedly, trying to relieve the dizziness all over her body;

Luo Ranyu, who was standing next to her, looked nonchalant, but her ears were slightly red, clearly still recovering from the embarrassment.

Luo Ranyu's lips twitched slightly, thinking to himself that he had to break the awkward silence. He stretched out his right hand, and with a slight thought, summoned the fire sword he had just put away into his hand. With a light twist of his wrist, the fire sword drew a smooth arc in the air. Then he loosened his grip on the hilt and instantly reversed his grip, changing the way he held the sword from a normal grip to a reverse grip.

Then, he smiled and half-squatted down, his gaze falling on Meng Hongchen.

Meng Hongchen gradually regained her senses. Looking at Luo Ranyu before her, her eyes were filled with resentment and helplessness. She had lost clearly and unequivocally. She pouted and said in a resentful tone, "Give me back my sword!"

Luo Ranyu smiled and handed over the fire sword. Meng Hongchen reached out and gripped the hilt, trying to pull it back forcefully, but Luo Ranyu wouldn't let go. Meng Hongchen frowned, puzzled, and said, "Hmph, you've already won, and you still don't want to return my sword, huh?"

Luo Ranyu did not immediately let go, but stared into Meng Hongchen's eyes, then looked down at the fire sword in her hand. A strange thought suddenly flashed through her mind, instantly throwing the embarrassment in the Shadow Fang to the back of her mind.

He suddenly realized something: he could not release the Martial Soul Fusion Skill on his own, but any weapon, whether it was a melee soul tool or a sword formed from his Martial Soul, could become the medium and carrier for him to release the Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

For Luo Ranyu, this match was far more meaningful than victory. Meng Hongchen's unexpected pressure had awakened the full potential of his three elemental martial souls, allowing him to successfully unleash his second soul skill. Moreover, her sword was a level six soul tool that Luo Ranyu believed he could never afford in his lifetime. How wonderful it would be if he could have such a wealthy and powerful family.

The reality is that he doesn't even know who his parents are; he's an orphan picked up by Sister Mengdi from the Star Dou Great Forest, helpless and powerless...

However, Luo Ranyu quickly composed himself, thankfully he was not alone.

Kim Jong-eul is upright and reliable, and will always stand up for him when he needs it;

Luo Jiuxiao is passionate and brave. Although he is impulsive at times, he always treats him as a brother.

Hua Xi'er is so cute and clings to him all day long. He doesn't know what she's after, but Luo Ranyu has gradually let down his guard against her. Even if she really has some purpose, he doesn't care anymore.

What bad intentions could such a kind and innocent little girl possibly have?

And then there was Xue Qianluo. Just thinking of her made Luo Ranyu's heart race slightly, and his ears turned even redder. He always silently thought to himself: Sister Xue Qianluo is so cool, so beautiful and dashing. Those golden hairs, those purple eyes, and that exquisitely beautiful and pure face—he was captivated at first sight. Of course, it was just a little bit of affection, he always comforted himself with that thought.

He also particularly liked Xue Qianluo's Aurora Sword, which was dazzling and sharp, radiating a faint holy light.

For a long time, Luo Ranyu suspected that Xue Qianluo had some ulterior motive for approaching him. But as it turned out, his guess was wrong.

Xue Qianluo always silently stayed by his side. Knowing that he liked the Aurora Sword, she patiently taught him swordsmanship. As the person with the highest soul power level among them, she was like a gentle older sister, protecting her companions and classmates, and also like a strict teacher, determined to pass on her swordsmanship and soul skills to him.

At first, Luo Ranyu reluctantly tried to learn under Xue Qianluo's coercion and enticement, but unexpectedly, he actually mastered it. Aurora Slash, Holy Light Protection, Rising Dragon Slash, Azure Break Slash—he could execute each move and style with fluidity and ease. Xue Qianluo would always praise him with a smile, her eyes full of recognition and satisfaction.

Returning to the Soul Fighting Tournament arena, facing Meng Hongchen's questioning, Luo Ranyu asked:
