A strong light enveloped the vertical eye and the two people below it.
"Go!"
Huo Yuhao stretched out two fingers forward and shouted, and all the light that had been gathered around the vertical eye burst out and turned into a straight ray.
The ground, the trees...everything that stood in the way was instantly penetrated by the mixed blue, white and gold light and turned into nothingness.
When the light was emitted, Wang Dong felt his brain go blank and his soul power seemed to be drained away. If Huo Yuhao had not been carrying him on his back, he would have collapsed to the ground.
Huo Yuhao still had a lot of strength left, so he helped Wang Dong lie down and looked forward.
The light not only penetrated all obstacles, but also left a gully on the ground that was about three meters wide, one meter deep, and a hundred meters long. The gully was completely covered with rich golden color.
It was already dusk, and the golden ravines looked particularly charming in the setting sun.
Huo Yuhao quietly admired his masterpiece and controlled some of the limited soul power to flow back into Wang Dong's body.
Wang Dong seemed to have recovered a little. He stood up from the ground and looked at the scene in front of him, shocked.
"This...this is..."
Huo Yuhao snapped his fingers with a smile on his face.
"This is our martial soul fusion technique."
Chapter 64 Who taught you to name it like this?
Wang Dong stared blankly at the golden ravine in front of him, the shock in his heart was beyond words.
"This...did you do this?" Wang Dong's eyes were blurred, and he couldn't believe the horrible destructive power of this attack.
“No, it’s not me.” Huo Yuhao chuckled, “It’s us.”
Wang Dong had a strange expression on his face. He felt like he had done nothing except for his soul power being drained away. Although it was a martial soul fusion skill, it didn't seem to have much to do with him.
However, he still couldn't suppress the excitement in his heart and wanted to reach out and touch the gold.
Just when he was about to touch the golden light, Huo Yuhao pulled him back.
Huo Yuhao warned: “Don’t touch it randomly, there is still some power left.”
But he still pulled it a little too slowly, and Wang Dong's fingertips had already touched it. His eyes were blurred for a moment, and his brain seemed to be whipped by an invisible whip, knocking him to the ground.
It took a long time for Wang Dong to come back to his senses from the shock, his voice trembling.
"Too... too strong! This is just the residue. If it was hit directly from the front, how terrifying it would be!"
"It has such power now. When our cultivation level is improved, what will it evolve into?"
Wang Dong was lost in his thoughts when Huo Yuhao asked, "Do you still have strength?"
Wang Dong said: "Just now I lost all my soul power. If you hadn't sent me some soul power, I might not even be able to stand up now."
“That’s good.” Huo Yuhao felt the soul power in his body was also about to run out, and said, “It seems that this martial soul fusion technique consumes a lot of energy. I won’t use it unless it is absolutely necessary.”
“You don’t know how to use it…” Wang Dong was stunned for a moment, and suddenly said depressedly, “Wow—it’s clearly a martial arts fusion technique between the two of us, why are you the one who’s in charge? It’s over without me having any sense of participation at all!”
Huo Yuhao snorted: "Oh, isn't it because you don't work hard enough?"
Wang Dong: "..."
He curled his lips, then said excitedly: "No, such a powerful skill, I must give it a cool name!"
Huo Yuhao raised his eyebrows and asked, "Oh? What name do you want to choose?"
"Hmph, I can't control it. The name must be related to me! Let me think..." Wang Dong thought for a moment and said, "How about calling it the Gaze of the Goddess of Light? Cool, right?"
He looked excited, but Huo Yuhao had no expression on his face.
"Hmm... it still doesn't sound good enough... I got it!" Wang Dong clapped his hands and said happily, "Such a gorgeous golden color and terrifying power, as well as the brilliance when the martial soul fusion technique is activated, why not call this move: Withering in the Brilliance - Golden Road, how about it?"
After saying this, Wang Dong looked at Huo Yuhao triumphantly.
"Screw you!"
Wang Dong was still immersed in his brilliant idea when Huo Yuhao kicked him on the butt rudely.
The kick was not heavy, but Wang Dong still fell flat on his face. After he stood up, he covered his butt and looked at Huo Yuhao in shame and anger: "What are you doing?"
Huo Yuhao looked unhappy: "Who taught you to name yourself like that?"
Wang Dong asked unconvincedly: "Isn't it that my achievement is not good?"
"You were a coder in your previous life, right? You added such a long prefix to a move. You really got the hang of the word count."
Huo Yuhao rolled his eyes at him and said, "Let Brother Hao teach you how to name your moves!"
He cleared his throat and began to explain: "Naming a move is a big deal. Although there is no requirement for the format, it can be either a noun or a verb, but it must not only perfectly show the effect of the move, but also reflect the user's style. If the name of the move is not well chosen, no matter how powerful it is, it will not be cool."
Wang Dong stammered, "Well...then I think the name I chose is pretty cool..."
“If it’s too long, it’s a failure!” Huo Yuhao waited for him to look, then said seriously, “Two to five words are best for a move name. The more words, the more domineering it appears, and the fewer words, the more impressive it appears. The key is to shout it out in one breath to shock the opponent.”
"Look at that long list you picked. The opponent ran away before you even finished reciting the moves. What's the point? Don't you feel awkward just reciting it yourself?"
"If you really want to say so much, don't add those messy prefixes, and change it into a setting poem, such as: Holding the sun and the moon in my hands and picking the stars, there is no one like me in the world!"
Wang Dong: "..."
After being taught a lesson by Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong didn't know what to name this move. He asked, "Then what do you want to call this move?"
Huo Yuhao said calmly: “Devil’s Light Killing Cannon.”
Wang Dong: "..."
Why does it sound worse than mine?
It always feels like a knock-off name that was stolen from somewhere...
"However, I think this move is so golden, and the name of the move should emphasize its class, so I'm going to call it..."
Huo Yuhao raised his head slightly and looked down at Wang Dong.
Wang Dong was stunned. At this moment, Huo Yuhao was like a messenger of God, conveying the Emperor of Heaven's oracle to him in a holy tone.
"Afterglow."
He opened his mouth softly, uttering two short syllables, simple yet powerful.
"Afterglow..." Wang Dong murmured these two words. This term is very common, but the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it was an extremely suitable name for this move.
The doomsday judgement comes, the merciless light annihilates everything, the living perish in the light, and the dead are buried in the light.
God never cared about anything in the world, the living, the dead, the evil, the good... everything no longer existed, and there was only the golden afterglow in the world.
Seeing Wang Dong's thoughtful look, Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "The shorter the words, the more room there is for imagination. Doesn't it make the name more impressive? Isn't this better than your long and boring move names?"
Wang Dong wanted to argue a little, but Huo Yuhao gave him another light kick on the butt, then turned and walked towards the academy: “Let’s go back. It’s time to set up the stall.”
“Ah, wait for me! Stop kicking my butt!” Wang Dong came to his senses and dragged his exhausted body to catch up with Huo Yuhao. “I’m so tired today. I want to eat ten skewers of grilled fish!”
Huo Yuhao walked on the road, deep in thought.
"Tianmeng?"
"What's wrong, Yuhao?"
"Soul fusion skills are performed between two souls that have a high degree of compatibility, right?"
"Yes."
"You said... since I have two martial souls, can my two martial souls merge with each other?"
"you mean……?"
"Would you like to know if you try it?"
……
On the second day, the top 64 players advanced to the knockout round of 32.
The knockout rounds are divided into three days, with one match in the morning and one in the afternoon each day.
Snapped--
The last student of the opposing team was knocked out of the arena, and Huo Yuhao's team easily won the game.
"Freshman Class 1, Huo Yuhao's team wins!"
Wang Dong swaggered out of the arena and said, "It's boring, Yuhao, is this what you call a high-end game? It seems that it won't work."
Xiao Xiao smiled and said, "Wang Dong, don't be too complacent. The squad leader hasn't said anything yet."
Huo Yuhao nodded: "If you really want to challenge yourself, I can consider giving you assistance three minutes after the game starts this afternoon..."
Wang Dong: "...Brother Hao, you are joking. I was just kidding."
The three of them walked out of the assessment area chatting and laughing, only to see Zhou Yi had been waiting for them at the entrance of the assessment area for a long time.
Zhou Yi seemed to be in a good mood, and waved to them with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, my two squad leaders, and Xiao Xiao."
"Let's go. Teacher Zhou will treat you to a good meal at noon."
Chapter 65 Commitment
"Teacher Zhou, could this be... the meat of a scaly-armored demon crocodile?"
Zhou Yi brought the three of them to the cafeteria and bought three top-notch dishes at the top window, each with a bowl of stew and a bowl of thick soup.
Wang Dong said uncertainly when he saw the stew.
Zhou Yi nodded and said, "Not bad, you are worthy of being a child of an aristocratic family. You have good taste. This meat is the meat of the amphibian soul beast scaly-armored demon crocodile. The scaly-armored demon crocodiles are extremely powerful, and eating their meat can enhance your physical fitness."
"However, the meat of this scaly devil crocodile is very hard, and it requires extremely advanced cooking skills to make it into a delicacy. The soup also uses ingredients of similar quality. Because of this, these two dishes will cost a full thirty gold soul coins."
Zhou Yi looked at the three people eating and sighed, "Our Shrek Academy is not only the best in the continent in terms of faculty, but also the best in chefs."
After she finished speaking, she looked at Huo Yuhao and the other two with some pride. Wang Dong and Xiao Xiao were eating with anticipation and yearning, but Huo Yuhao had a calm expression.
He gently picked up a piece of stewed meat with his clapper and put it into his mouth, chewing it: "It's average."
Zhou Yi: “…”
Why does Huo Yuhao always have to challenge her on everything?
