This guy had such strong defense!
Yan Kailun’s strong defense was not only because of his Martial Soul, but also because of his strong control over his muscles. That seemed to be some kind of muscle memory training.
In the process of falling back, Yan Kailun returned to normal. Lan Xuanyu tapped his toes on the ground and chased after him in an instant. He obviously couldn’t give up on the first move that he had taken.
However, Yan Kailun did something that Lan Xuanyu didn’t expect. Before he could stabilize himself, he actually squatted down and rolled on the ground. He found his balance and pulled away from Lan Xuanyu.
The third soul ring on Yan Kailun’s body lit up as both his palms struck the ground.
Lan Xuanyu’s gaze was firm. Although his soul power cultivation was far inferior to Yan Kailun’s, his spiritual power was stronger. He leaped up without hesitation and the fourth soul ring on his body flickered. With a green light, he floated weightlessly like a breeze.
“Boom!” The ground shook. With Yan Kailun’s body as the center, there seemed to be a turbulent wave within a radius of 30 meters as a huge shockwave spread outwards.
Third soul skill, Ground Stomp!
Lan Xuanyu’s body rose into the air along with the shockwave and rose almost 20 meters. His expression turned grave. Although he wasn’t injured, he had lost the initiative.
Yan Kailun leaped up, no longer belittling Lan Xuanyu just because he had four rings.
The gigantic shadow behind Yan Kailun was faintly discernible as it stared at Lan Xuanyu with a burning gaze, waiting for him to land.
Lin Mohua floated in the air and observed their performance, praising them in his heart.
A four-ring soul power cultivation was undoubtedly Lan Xuanyu’s weakest point. His soul power was three levels lower than Yan Kailun’s. Theoretically speaking, a seven-ring Soul Sage’s soul power was at least ten times that of a four-ring Soul Ancestor.
Lan Xuanyu had Twin Martial Souls and had slightly more soul power than a soul master with a single Martial Soul. But in this battle, he even used his weakest point to his advantage.
When Yan Kailun was focused and at his strongest fighting spirit, Lan Xuanyu displayed his four-ring cultivation only when he was near. Lin Mohua was sure that this was not a coincidence, but Lan Xuanyu deliberately used the fact that he only had four soul rings to attract Yan Kailun’s attention and influence him.
He had even calculated the opponent’s mentality, so Yan Kailun suffered a small loss.
Lan Xuanyu couldn’t tell, but Lin Mohua could feel that although Lan Xuanyu’s punch was neutralized by Yan Kailun and he wasn’t injured, after Lan Xuanyu’s bloodline aura entered Yan Kailun’s body, Yan Kailun’s bloodline was still affected. Although it wasn’t severely suppressed, it was still suppressed.
Lan Xuanyu still didn’t know what spirit Yan Kailun had, but Lin Mohua knew very well. Yan Kailun’s Martial Soul was the Mammoth Gigantic Elephant, a top-notch strength-type Martial Soul. Yan Kailun was a Martial Soul master that walked the path of extreme strength. His Mammoth Gigantic Elephant Martial Soul’s greatest use was to increase the power of his bloodline, but at this moment, he was being suppressed in this aspect, which showed how strong Lan Xuanyu’s bloodline aura was.
Lin Mohua wasn’t sure why Lan Xuanyu only had four rings. Judging by his bloodline, his Martial Soul should be far stronger than Yan Kailun’s, and this was only taking into account one of his Martial Souls.
That day, Lan Xuanyu’s Dragon God Transformation left an extremely deep impression on Lin Mohua. In front of a god-rank powerhouse like him, Lan Xuanyu was actually able to break through the blockade and throw the Heavenly Sacred Abyss Splitting Halberd. How strong was he?
The referee today wasn’t supposed to be Lin Mohua, but someone else. It was Lin Mohua who decided to replace him. He didn’t do this to prevent the Federation’s Central Academy students from hurting Shrek Academy’s students, but to prevent Lan Xuanyu from hurting others.
Lan Xuanyu’s Heavenly Sacred Abyss Splitting Halberd was too overbearing. Even Lin Mohua, who was a god-rank powerhouse, had his life force devoured when he tried to grab it. If it landed on an ordinary soul master, the consequences were obvious.
Hence, when the match schedule was out and Lin Mohua saw that Lan Xuanyu’s opponent was Yan Kailun, he was actually a little disappointed.
On the Federation’s Central Academy side, any other person would be better off facing Lan Xuanyu than Yan Kailun. Yan Kailun was most proficient in offense and met his opponents head on. His combat skills were all in close combat and he wasn’t good at long-range combat. Lan Xuanyu’s Heavenly Sacred Abyss Halberd’s abilities were simply too much of a suppression for Yan Kailun. Once Lan Xuanyu used it, Yan Kailun would probably have a hard time resisting.
Although Lan Xuanyu was Lin Mohua’s junior, he had watched Yan Kailun grow up and represent the Federation’s Central Academy. He obviously didn’t want Yan Kailun to lose.
Now, they could only see how Yan Kailun would react and whether Lan Xuanyu would use the halberd. Lan Xuanyu probably didn’t have to pay any price to use it.
At this moment, Yan Kailun furrowed his brows because he realized that Lan Xuanyu, who was blasted into the sky by him, didn’t fall from the sky. Instead, Lan Xuanyu was suspended in midair, his entire body surrounded by green light as he stared at him.
He could float in the air?
Yes, Lan Xuanyu could, of course, because he knew how to control the wind elements. His control over the wind elements allowed him to have the ability to fly for short distances.
He naturally couldn’t let himself fall so easily. Otherwise, he would become a target.
The silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass on Lan Xuanyu’s left hand had curled up and transformed into silver scales that covered his entire body.
This ability was similar to his golden-patterned Blue Silver Grass’ first soul skill, the Golden Dragon Body, but it was currently displaying the Silver Dragon Body. This was something he gradually figured out after gaining the Dragon God Transformation.
When he was in the Silver Dragon Body state, his control over the elements would increase greatly, just like how the silver-patterned Blue Silver Grass covered his palm and also improved his ability to control the elements.
Then, Lan Xuanyu’s hands started moving.
Lan Kailun could see blue, red, yellow, and green lights flickering in Lan Xuanyu’s hands. Most importantly, the four black soul rings on his body were actually all emitting light.
‘What’s going on? Is he releasing his soul skills?’
Yan Kailun’s expression changed as soon as he saw it. He was a pure strength-type soul master, but he was a seven-ring Soul Sage after all. He could clearly feel the elemental undulations in the air becoming stronger, and all sorts of elements became frantic.
A smart person like Lan Xuanyu obviously knew how to use his strength to attack the enemy’s weakness. Although he had yet to figure out what Yan Kailun’s Martial Soul was, he could sense that Yan Kailun’s ability was mostly in terms of strength.
Lan Xuanyu was also very strong, but he didn’t think that he could fight against a strength-type Soul Sage in this aspect. In what aspect was he stronger than his opponent? Spiritual power!
Under the enhancement of the Silver Dragon Body, coupled with his four 10,000-year soul skills and Spirit Abyss realm spiritual power, his control over the elements was extremely strong. Even a seven-ring Soul Sage proficient in controlling the elements might not be stronger than him.
Hence, when he was blasted into the air and suspended by the wind, he already had a plan in his mind.
Yan Kailun’s combat experience was extremely rich, and the moment he realized that something was wrong, he immediately reacted. A brown Battle Armor instantly emerged from his body and covered his entire body. A pair of wings spread out on his back, and the armor on his fists was especially thick.
With his Battle Armor on, Yan Kailun’s aura increased exponentially as his blood and qi surged.
Nice loving that Xuanyu is able to adapt the Golden Dragon King’s abilities, but replace them with the Silver Dragon King Bloodline. It makes so much sense since the Silver Dragon King is more about spiritual and elemental power his rings boost those aspects, while the Golden Dragon King lacks the same gimmicks since it is strength base. However both bloodlines were once the Dragon God bloodline so their fusion would also share the same abilities of both. Previously I always thought they would fuse in that his rings would hold the soul skills from both of his martial souls in one, I never consider that it would fuse together. Also makes wonder if he can do the reverse like use his elementals with the Golden Dragon King’s power losing control, but powering them several levels like how we see other characters with Ultimate elements in previous books.
I hope he shows more of the rings from his Golden Pattern Blue Silver Grass, but use the Silver Dragon Bloodline. Like all of them would have no issue being adapted Golden Dragon Tyrant Body would basically just absorb elemental attacks making immune to them. Golden Dragon Roar would become weaker physically, but stronger spiritual attack and elemental suppressing. Golden Dragon Fury Domain would boost his allies Elemental abilities more. Like damn if Xunayu properly adapts all of his soul skills his whole fighting style would take versatility to a new level.
Honestly after thinking about this I doubt the author will do it as it will make Xunayu too OP, but if he did would make full sense why the novel is titled Ultimate Fighter. I at least hope Xuanyu will make a Silver Dragon Shocks the Heavens.

He doenst know the Scarlet dragon move series, wulin never taught him and the art was lost with its predecessor death, about the soul skills, he doenst need to bind himself with the grass to use then its just a amp in power
And the rings, he has 8 since his body treated the bloodlines as martial souls, so the 4 rings from SDK gives him elemental control while the GDK gives wulin’s abilities

Incorrect teacher Nana taught him Golden Dragon Shocks the Heavens and Golden Dragon Flight. The only ones he is missing are Golden Dragon Shakes the Earth, Annihilation Claws, Annihilation Claws, Nullification. As for the last three they are meant to be self created anyway.
The Nine Dragon Series differ from person to person based on the bloodline used for them, so in theory Xuanyu can replace Golden Dragon King Bloodline with the Silver Dragon King for the ones he knows. I do hope Wulin will reach him all of them at one point.
I don’t get what you mean about him not needing to bind his grass. like he has always been able to increase his elemental control by warping it around his arm, but he took it a step further here. Xuanyu is using the soul skill from his right side Blue Silver Grass which gives Golden Dragon’s body, but instead using Silver Dragon Body which amps his elemental control further. He literally just switched out the bloodline he used for his soul skills around so in theory he should be able to do it with all his soul skills.
As for the rings, cause they come from his bloodline and they merge the further he cultivates the soul rings themselves merge. If you noticed even though Xuanyu is capable of using both his martial souls at the same time it only shows four rings not eight, when previously it showed two rings on each arm. His soul rings are gradually fusing hence why it doesn’t show his actual number rings, eventually they will be completely merged and all his soul skills upgraded to Dragon God.

Actually no, he inst using golden dragon body, he’s simply wrapping the grass all over his body, its stated to be similar so its more akin to a manual imitation than a default soul skill since the SDK is all about elemental control
About ring fusion nothing has even remotely stated that he will fuse the two set of rings not even hinted, and dragon god transformation doenst do that either

Of course he isn’t using Golden Dragon Body cause he is using Silver Dragon Body. It isn’t an imitation though cause it does state it is Silver Dragon Body effectively making it another soul skill. He figured out how to do it through Dragon God transformation which is when his bloodlines are merged and has the abilities of both. Xuanyu is literally adapting his first soul skill on one of his marital souls to work with the bloodline of the other.
No the rings do merge, why do you think it only shows half of the total amount of soul rings he does have even when he is using both martial souls at the same time. In fact normally people can’t use two martial souls at the same time cause they clash and have to switch between. That isn’t the cause for Xuanyu though cause his bloodlines are merging. His soul rings come from his bloodlines and as stated previously he needs to gradually fuse them together as he cultivates. The end result of his cultivation is both his bloodlines merging completely into the Dragon God bloodline when that happens he won’t have either the Golden or Silver Dragon Bloodlines anymore and only the Dragon God bloodline like wise all his soul skills will evolve and merge together as well.

The rings arent show when he’s using dragon god mode, in this chapter he was using only the SDK powers so the other rings werent invoked, nothing says they are merged

No Xuanyu uses both his marital souls in battle at the same time, but only shows half of the total rings. Originally it showed all soul rings for both martial souls together hence why previously it showed him with four rings when he was only at rank 20. After he reached three rings and got Dragon God transformation it started only showing three instead of the total six like it would have before. Xuanyu has always been able to use both his martial soul and skills side by side, but it was only after he got Dragon God transformation and his bloodlines harmonized it stopped showing all his rings despite using both marital souls and soul skills at the same time.
