The Martial Soul Skeleton, in Douluo Continent's Bone-Changing Susanoo

Chapter 61 Training in Ring Fusion

"Xia Liang, will you teach me?" Dugu Yan asked earnestly.

Xia Liang smiled and said, "You should wait for your grandfather to come back and have him teach you."

"But my grandfather doesn't know how to fuse rings," Dugu Yan explained. "He can only ask others to demonstrate it to me, and then I can learn something from it. It's said that some talented soul masters can learn it after seeing someone else use it just once."

"If that's the case, and you still can't get it after watching so many times, it means you don't have the talent. So, no matter how I teach you, it's useless, right?"

After hearing Xia Liang's words, Dugu Yan clenched her fist. She had finally found a way to improve her poison skills without worrying about backlash, so how could she be willing to give it up?

Xia Liang thought for a moment before speaking, "How about this, you agree to three conditions, and I can find a way to teach you."

"What are the conditions?" Dugu Yan asked anxiously.

"The first condition is that if you run into your grandfather in the future and he does anything excessive to me, you must stop him in advance. Being bullied twice by the same Title Douluo is definitely not a pleasant experience."

"Okay. I promise you." Dugu Yan nodded readily.

"The second condition is that once you learn the Ring Fusion Technique, if we have the opportunity to join forces in the future, I hope that the Ring Fusion Technique will be performed with me at the center. In other words, I will have complete control over the Ring Fusion Technique, and you will have no choice but to follow my instructions."

"Okay. What's the third condition?"

"The third condition doesn't really count as a condition," Xia Liangxian stated. "I only have time to teach you on my days off. I have other things to do the rest of the time."

"Didn't you already resign from the college kitchen?" Dugu Yan asked curiously. "What else do you have to do?"

"I can't spend all my time on you, can I? I also need to pursue other training. So, are all three conditions acceptable?"

As soon as Xia Liang finished speaking, Dugu Yan nodded firmly, "No problem, as long as you're willing to teach me. By the way, I'm always at home on my days off. Why don't you come to my house to teach me sometime? My grandfather isn't here anyway. I don't have any servants. It's just the two of us. Practicing at my house will save us from being watched by others."

After a moment's thought, Xia Liangcai replied, "Okay, just give me a copy of your house key. I'll head over beforehand."

Ten days later.

Heavenly Dou Royal Academy

As soon as the bell rang to signal the end of class, Dugu Yan ran out of the poisonous mimicry field.

As she rushed out of the school gate, she brushed past Yu Tianheng, Oslo, and others.

"Yan Yan!"

Before Yu Tianheng could even shout, Dugu Yan had already run far away.

Oslo and Yufeng looked puzzled. "Boss, where is Yanzi going? Why does she seem to be in such a hurry?"

"Tomorrow is a day off, and Yan Yan usually stays at home with her grandfather," Yu Tianheng said. "She's rushing home so quickly, so her grandfather must be back from a long trip."

"I didn't realize Yanzi was such a filial son."

At this point, Oslo couldn't help but feel puzzled. "Hiss, that's strange. Don't people usually go on long trips for a month or two or more? How could she be back so soon? Could it be that Yanzi's grandfather flew all the way? Is she in such a hurry to go home really just to see her grandfather?"

"Leopard, when did you become so suspicious? Besides her grandfather, is there someone else waiting for her at home? Let's go. Don't waste time on the Soul Battle."

After saying that, Yu Tianheng walked towards Tiandou City.

Oslo and Yufeng didn't think much of it and followed closely behind.

The three of them made a pact to go to the city's Great Arena for a battle every day off, and also to experience the life of a noble young master for a day.

night.

Tian Dou City, Dugu Mansion.

hall.

Having obtained the key from Dugu Yan, Xia Liang can freely enter and exit Dugu's mansion.

At this moment, he was lying in a rocking chair with his eyes closed, concentrating.

The ice and fire energy within his body has been completely absorbed, so even if Dugu Bo suddenly returns, there's no need to worry about him noticing anything.

It would be even better if Dugu Bo returned and caught them, so that through Dugu Yan's introduction, they could put aside their past grievances and avoid future hostility.

Much later.

Seeing Dugu Yan cautiously push open the door and walk in, Xia Liang stood up from the rocking chair and scolded, "Why are you being so careful? Don't be so reserved. Make yourself at home."

"This is my home. I thought you were asleep, that's why I closed the door so carefully. If it were someone else, I wouldn't care so much."

As she spoke, Dugu Yan walked to the dining table, which had two dishes and a soup, all of which she had never eaten in the college cafeteria.

"Besides the dishes served at the academy, I didn't know you could cook other dishes too?"

Dugu Yan looked at Xia Liang with increasing curiosity. "I don't understand. You spend all your time researching dishes. Where do you find so much time to cultivate? And you're also proficient in soul beasts and various theoretical knowledge. How do you do it?"

Xia Liang did not answer the question directly. He sat down at the table, picked up his chopsticks, and started eating.

"Eat quickly, then we'll train. I've noticed you've already grasped some of the essentials of ring fusion. I'll let you experience it again after dinner, and you'll definitely improve. Ring fusion talent is innate, but hard work isn't always in vain."

Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan nodded excitedly and then sat down to eat.

For the past ten days, the two of them have been cultivating in the cave simulation field of the academy every afternoon.

The environment of the cave is not actually very conducive to the cultivation of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul.

Xia Liang had no choice but to let Dugu Yan come over, since it was a public resource and he couldn't just drive her away.

However, thanks to this, the two got to know each other better and their relationship got better and better.

In addition, seven days ago, Xia Liang visited Dugu Yan's home for the first time and shared his experience of activating the Fusion Ring with her, so the two of them became more relaxed in their conversations.

On Earth, Xia Liang was originally a very outgoing person, but when he arrived in Douluo Continent, he faced numerous dangers and had to restrain his temper and be cautious in everything he did.

Now that he's on good terms with Dugu Yan, Xia Liang's vigilance tends to relax a little when he trusts someone.

Therefore, he was very easygoing when we got along with him, and he didn't give people the feeling of being cold or taciturn.

It's 8 PM.

After dinner, Dugu Yan and Xia Liang went to the lawn in the backyard to begin their ring-fusion training.

To learn the skill of ring fusion, one needs not hard work, but talent.

Not only Dugu Yan, but even Dugu Bo did not have such talent.

However, Xia Liang felt that the talent of ring fusion and dragon transformation were different.

Dragon transformation is unique to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Martial Soul, just like the Sharingan, which outsiders simply cannot learn.

The Fusion Ring originates from the Soul Ring, and every Soul Master has a Soul Ring.

Just like everyone has a voice.

Therefore, the talent of ring fusion is more similar to the talent of singing; for Soul Masters, it is simply a difference in the level of talent.

Soul Masters with special Martial Souls have a high talent for ring fusion and can perform it without training.

Mainland Soul Masters have not yet developed a training method for the Fusion Ring talent, which may be why the conclusion that Fusion Ring is a talent has emerged.

These days, Xia Liang still can't figure it out. He doesn't know if the Fusion Ring is something that can't be learned, or if it can actually be acquired through proper training methods.

Without proper theoretical guidance, it would be impossible to teach Dugu Yan the skill of ring fusion.

However, Xia Liang can transfer the power he gained from fusing with the ring into Dugu Yan's body.

By repeating this process, Dugu Yan might be able to glean some secrets to improve her talent in using the Fusion Ring technique.

After her first attempt seven days ago, Dugu Yan already knew what to do.

As soon as she arrived in the backyard, she ran to the middle of the lawn, turned her back to Xia Liang, and said, "Come on, this time put in a little more effort. I want to feel the energy you're putting into my body more clearly."

"Hmm." Xia Liang responded and walked behind Dugu Yan, less than half a meter away from her.

To allow the fusion energy entering her body to spread more easily throughout her entire body, Dugu Yan opened her arms to the sides, took a deep breath, and slowly relaxed her body.

Perhaps it was because of her great figure, but when Dugu Yan opened her arms, the cheongsam made her look exceptionally mature with her curves, especially the way she turned her head and looked expectantly as if something was entering her from behind, which always gave people a feeling of wanting to have fun.

Letting out a long breath, Dugu Yan was completely relaxed, but her mind remained highly focused. She glanced at Xia Liang behind her and said, "I'm ready!"

"Hmm. Just like the first time, it might still hurt a little when it first goes inside you, just bear with it."

As a reminder, Xia Liang raised his hands, and the first and second spirit rings appeared on his palms respectively.

Driven by his Soul Ring Fusion talent, the two Soul Rings merged with his Soul Power, condensing into a dark purple sphere of light in front of him.
