Peerless: Tang San, this time Huo Yuhao is the attacker.

Chapter 101 Wang Dong: It was over before I even realized it.

If [Ice Emperor] and [Frost Blessing] are effective, then this level of power is to be expected.

If Martial Soul Fusion Skills are also within the scope of the attribute bonus, wouldn't Martial Soul Fusion Skills related to the Spirit Eye also receive a three-fold increase from the [Spirit Master]?

Huo Yuhao suddenly remembered that since he returned from the far north, he had only used the Golden Road once.

That was when he and Wang Dong used the Golden Road to fight back against the assassins sent by Dai Huabin.

Those assassins defeated by the Golden Road were all Soul Kings, capable of doing so with their original power alone, so he had never realized this.

The method to verify this problem is very simple: just release a Martial Soul Fusion Skill involving the Spirit Eye.

"The attack of your Martial Soul Fusion Skill is purely power-based, and in addition, the attack is also imbued with the characteristics of extreme ice."

It has a remarkable effect when facing Soul Masters with Ice and Fire attributes.

There's not much else to say. You all recover your soul power and prepare for the next Martial Soul Fusion Skill.

With her spiritual power, Xian Lin'er could sense the depleted soul power of the two with just a slight scan.

Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong immediately sat down cross-legged and replenished their soul power in less than half an hour.

The martial souls they fused this time were the Spirit Eye and the Clear Sky Hammer.

When the phantom of the Spirit Eye behind Huo Yuhao and the phantom of the Goddess of Light Butterfly behind Wang Dong merged together, the light flashed, and suddenly only Huo Yuhao's figure remained.

A vertical eye slowly opened on his forehead, and a phantom image was projected from it—a normal-sized, brilliant golden hammer.

The next second, the hammer shattered, turning into countless smaller hammers that flew in all directions at such a speed that one could only feel a golden light flashing by.

When the halo of light composed of tiny golden hammers swept across Xian Lin'er's body, she let out a heavy groan.

"Hmm!"

Xian Lin'er frowned. In the instant she was covered by the golden light, her spiritual sea suffered an indescribable impact.

That was a pure mental shock, but not a pure mental attack.

Xianlin felt dizzy and her mind went blank for a moment.

She stood there blankly, as scenes flashed before her eyes—her experiences from childhood to adulthood.

The first time I awakened my martial soul, the first time I absorbed a soul ring, the first time I won a major championship—all sorts of images flashed through my mind, along with a mix of complex emotions welling up inside me.

Happy, sad, excited, grief-stricken, nervous, heartbroken.

Xian Lin'er's breathing became rapid involuntarily, and she became somewhat dazed.

(In the original novel, chapters 125 and 126, the Heavenly Fiend Douluo Huang Jinxu was restricted by the attack of the Mind Storm.)

Huang Jinxu did not actively resist at the time, and by the time he realized something was wrong, it was too late to resist.

Xian Lin'er is definitely stronger than Huang Jinxu, but not by much in terms of mental strength alone. Moreover, the [Master of Spirit] provides a three-fold boost.

Xianlin'er didn't resist either, because she wanted to experience the effects, which is why she had such a strong reaction. There's evidence to back it up!

It took three to five seconds for Xian Lin'er to belatedly realize what was happening, her face filled with horror and disbelief.

A Martial Soul Fusion Technique performed by a Great Soul Master and a Soul Venerable stunned her, a Title Douluo of level 94?

Does this even make sense?

"Yuhao, what's wrong!"

Wang Dong released Huo Yuhao and immediately noticed the latter's dejected expression, so he asked anxiously.

"It's nothing, just that our mental energy was overused. Didn't you notice that our soul energy consumption has decreased a lot?"

This spirit fusion skill is ultimately led by me, so it consumes a lot of mental energy.

Huo Yuhao waved his hand, indicating that Wang Dong didn't need to be nervous. The Heavenly Emperor's Hammer only required soul power, which he and Wang Dong could share.

However, the Mind Storm mainly relies on mental power to activate, which consumes much less soul power. With Wang Dong's limited mental power, it can only play a decorative role, and the majority of the power has to be provided by Huo Yuhao.

"Is that so?" Wang Dong carefully examined his body and found that the consumption of soul power was indeed far less than before, and his expression couldn't help but show a hint of surprise.

"It's true, it was over before I even realized it. Yuhao, you're not good at this either."

Huo Yuhao's eyes narrowed. What kind of lewd words were these? However, he didn't pay any attention to them and instead shone his light on Xian Lin'er.

"Dean, how powerful was it this time?"

Upon hearing this, Xian Lin'er, who had just calmed herself down, was filled with astonishment and admiration that almost materialized.

"Your Martial Soul Fusion Skill is extremely powerful. Even a Title Douluo would be controlled and suffer considerable damage if they did not defend against it beforehand."

Your Martial Soul Fusion Skill is purely composed of mental energy. It not only possesses mental attack capabilities but also has a very special effect: strong control abilities.

Xianlin'er paused, organizing her thoughts, "It's similar to bewitching, causing the target to experience a brief period of mental stagnation."

Your Martial Soul Fusion Skill has both mental attack and mental control capabilities. In particular, in terms of mental control, it can even subdue a Title Douluo.

In comparison, mental attacks are much weaker, only able to stun a Title Douluo for a moment without causing any damage.

However, if facing a Soul Saint, this attack would severely damage their spiritual sea. As for Soul Kings and Soul Emperors below that level, they would surely die, with no chance of survival.

At this point, Xian Lin'er's tone became extremely serious, "You must remember, this Martial Soul Fusion Skill cannot be released lightly."

In a life-or-death duel, you need not worry. But if it's just for friendly sparring, remember to think carefully before using it, and even if you must use it, control its power.

"Don't worry, Dean, we won't use it recklessly," Huo Yuhao assured him. Sure enough, the entry also applied to Martial Soul Fusion Techniques.

Given their cultivation level, the normal power of their Soul Fusion Technique should be too much for a Soul King to withstand, and while a Soul Emperor could withstand it, they would suffer considerable damage.

As a result, judging solely from the attack power, the Heavenly Emperor's Hammer severely injured the Soul Emperor, and the Mind Storm severely injured the Soul Saint. This is absolutely unreasonable and can only be attributed to the power of the stats.

"Dean, I know the principle behind charm—it uses appearance to induce mental lethargy in the opponent. So what is the principle behind our mind control?"

Wang Dong asked curiously. Upon hearing this, Xian Lin'er fell silent, as if recalling everything she had just felt. After a while, she said in a deep voice, "I can't be completely sure about that either. Personally, I feel like I'm caught up in past memories, my mind is entangled by various emotions."

As for whether other people behave the same way as me, you'll probably need to test it with several other people a few more times.

However, one thing I'm certain of is that it's virtually impossible for anyone below the Title Douluo level to break free from such mental control.

Huo Yuhao looked at Xian Lin'er with some admiration. She was basically right about everything except for the last step: mental control.

The mental storm has two layers: the first layer is a mental attack, and the second layer is a mental shock.

Xianlin'er's concept of mind control is essentially a form of psychological impact, and its manifestations include:

By impacting the recipient's mental sea, the memories of the target are constantly assaulted, causing damage and affecting the opponent's sanity.

This is why it can influence titled Douluo.

The mental impact technique doesn't rely on strength, but on experience; it uses the recipient's past memories to assault their mind.

To put it simply, it's about letting you relive your journey, like a revolving lantern. The more bumpy and complicated your journey, the greater the impact and the stronger the effect.

Frankly speaking, this form of feedback is already showing signs of becoming a rule-based technique, no longer limited to strength.

This was the only mistake Xian Lin'er made. It's not that those below the Title Douluo level are unable to escape mental attacks; it mainly depends on the opponent's past and current state.

For example, a person who had a warm and happy family in the past but is now all alone and has lost all the people they loved will experience the strongest emotional impact.

For example, once a person has reached a level where they are neither elated by external gains nor saddened by personal losses, any emotional impact becomes ineffective and has no effect whatsoever.

"You guys take a break, this is the last one."

Huo Yuhao nodded, closed his eyes, and this time it only took him less than fifteen minutes.

This time, when the phantom of the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion and the phantom of the Goddess of Light Butterfly intertwined, what remained was no longer the grown-up version of Huo Yuhao, but a woman of stunning beauty.

Her long, light blue hair fell down, revealing a pair of bright golden eyes and a faint golden trident rune on her forehead.

This is the only one of the four martial soul fusion skills between the two that is led by Wang Dong: the Light and Rainbow.

"Dean, this Martial Soul Fusion Skill is not an attack type, but an enhancement type. I can feel that the total amount of soul power in my body has reached an astonishing level."

A clear and melodious voice rang out. Looking at the stunningly beautiful girl in front of her, Xian Lin'er's eyes flashed with amazement, but she was not surprised.

She knew that Wang Dong was a girl, or rather, the higher-ups at the academy knew.

After all, her martial soul had already revealed everything; the Goddess of Light Butterfly could only ever appear on female soul masters.

"Then go all out and let me see where your enhanced limits are."

Wang Dong'er nodded, and a pair of gorgeous butterfly wings instantly unfolded behind her. Her butterfly wings were still pinkish-blue, but they were covered with a layer of lustrous green light.

As the butterfly's wings fluttered gently, the surrounding temperature dropped rapidly, and in an instant, frost formed and icy mist filled the air.

Wang Dong'er soared into the air, without any spirit rings appearing around her. She spread her arms to the sides, and a dazzling golden light appeared out of thin air, condensing into a crescent-shaped light blade running from the upper left to the lower right in front of her.

As the five-meter-long light blade condensed into shape, the golden light did not stop, and then another identical light blade condensed from the upper right to the lower left.

Two beams of light crossed, dazzlingly bright. The next moment, Wang Dong'er brought her arms together in front of her at the same time, and her red lips parted slightly: "Butterfly God - Cross Slash".

The light blade fell from the sky, crashing towards Xianlin'er with terrifying speed and power, like a meteor.

"As expected, it is a Soul Emperor-level combat power. In addition to the rich power of light, it also has the soul power of extreme ice."

Faced with the incoming light blade, Xian Lin'er casually waved her hand, and blue flames burst forth from her body, forming a barrier that blocked the light blade.

Qingyan's feedback further confirmed Xianlin'er's judgment: this attack had reached the level of a Soul Emperor, and was not even an ordinary Soul Emperor.

In fact, Xian Lin'er could judge Wang Dong'er's strength based on basic perception alone.

Whether it's a Soul Master or a Soul Skill, the fluctuations of Soul Power they emit don't lie. In front of Xian Lin'er's spiritual power, even the most restrained Soul Power fluctuations have nowhere to hide.

"Is this a full-force attack?" Xian Lin'er's voice, mixed with soul power, clearly reached Wang Dong'er's ears high in the sky.

"No, Dean, what follows is my full-force attack."

Wang Dong'er touched her cheek, her eyebrows curving upwards, as if she were touching someone else's face, not her own.

The hazy emerald light on the butterfly wings suddenly burst forth, and the edges of the pinkish-blue wings rapidly spread outward, extending into emerald green wings about two meters long.

Wang Dong'er adjusted her posture, slowly lowered her body, and then swooped down, her target Xian Lin'er.

During the fall, Wang Dong'er's body shone with golden light, as if electric snakes were coiling around her extended emerald green wings.

For an ordinary person, all they would see at that moment is a cluster of golden meteors streaking across the sky, leaving behind a noticeable shockwave.

This time, Xian Lin'er did not choose to release the Azure Flame, but instead used her soul power to condense a tangible barrier.

The decomposition of Qingyan is no joke; it's something Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong in front of them can't withstand.

When Wang Dong'er's wings collided with Xian Lin'er's soul power barrier, a piercing friction sound rang out, and a large number of sparks splashed down from the point where the wings collided with the barrier.

Wang Dong'er's confident smile froze. Unconvinced, she increased her soul power output, and the previously dimmed emerald green wings lit up again.

However, apart from having more Mars, the soul power barrier remained unchanged.

Wang Dong'er's soul power rapidly depleted, her emerald green wings gradually dimmed and disappeared, and her body gradually became illusory and transparent.

A flash of light appeared, and two figures sat on the ground, drenched in sweat and panting heavily. They were Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong.

Wang Dong glanced at the undamaged barrier in front of Xian Lin'er, his face showing visible frustration and his tone full of disappointment.

"What? It doesn't feel strong at all."

Clearly, he was very dissatisfied that his all-out attack had not caused any damage to Xianlin'er.

Xian Lin'er could tell what Wang Dong was thinking, and she shook her head helplessly. "Wang Dong, if you can hurt me, then my title of Title Douluo is too weak."

"But those two spirit fusion skills led by Yuhao just now, one can make a Soul Saint wary, and the other can even suppress a Title Douluo."

Why is it so weak when I'm in charge? Is my Goddess of Light Butterfly Martial Soul really that bad?

Wang Dong looked annoyed, and Xian Lin'er chuckled upon hearing this, "Who said your full-force attack was weak?"

The reason why my soul power barrier does not appear to change is because my soul power is solid enough.

This is the soul power of a Title Douluo; just because you can't break through it doesn't mean you're not strong enough.

"Dean, what do you mean?"
