Chapter 80: Solar Angel
The astonishment of onlookers was something Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen were already accustomed to.
Every time they made an appearance, they became the center of attention.
This was nothing new.
The real highlight would be when Liuxing and Liuying took the stage.
For the two of them, compared to the admiration of their peers, the test of martial soul compatibility was far more intriguing.
They stood in the testing area as usual.
With Teacher Li activating the soul guidance switch, soul power fluctuations emerged, and two beams of magical light shone upon them.
Their martial souls, the Holy Angel and the Sun, underwent a transformation, both emitting a faint white light, seemingly on the verge of merging.
Unlike the previous tests with other students, Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen felt that under the guidance of the soul guidance device's light, their soul powers began to subtly merge.
"What's this?"
Teacher Li's eyes lit up with anticipation.
"Hey! Look, their martial souls, are they getting closer?"
The other students outside the testing area also noticed the anomaly and began to chatter.
"This situation feels familiar, like I've seen it before."
An older student murmured.
"Idiot, this is just like what happened with Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen two years ago!"
Some of the older students had already recalled the incident involving Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen.
Although it wasn't in this exact testing area, the situation was strikingly similar to what was happening now with Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen.
As the light grew brighter, the figures of Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen began to blur. Seeing this, both Teacher Li and the students outside the testing area could tell that Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen were likely about to succeed.
With a burst of powerful soul power, a golden light screen suddenly appeared, spreading out like a hemisphere and eventually covering half of the testing area.
The light did not continue to expand but slowly contracted, revealing the figures within.
The original Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen had disappeared, replaced by a stunningly beautiful angel with golden hair and wings.
This angel bore an eighty percent resemblance to Ye Guyi.
Her golden hair was ablaze with golden flames, and her once-white wings had transformed into fiery golden ones.
In her hand, she held a golden sword wreathed in holy flames.
A sacred and noble aura emanated from her, accompanied by a powerful soul power fluctuation.
Both new and old students instinctively took a step back, intimidated by this overwhelming presence.
Only a handful of people remained unaffected.
Liuxing looked at the beautiful angel clad in golden armor and asked curiously, "Are you Guyi or Tianzhen now?"
The angel's golden eyes turned to Liuxing, and she nodded slightly, a hint of a smile in her eyes.
Liuxing understood, this was primarily Ye Guyi.
"Such a strong aura!"
Ji Juechen gripped his iron sword tightly, his feet instinctively taking a step forward, his eyes burning with fighting spirit.
"Hey, hey, Old Ji, you're not thinking of picking a fight with them, are you? Look at the situation!"
Jing Ziyan grabbed Ji Juechen's hand, rolling her eyes. This sword fanatic, couldn't he see that this wasn't the time for a fight?
Ji Juechen retracted his raised foot and pondered for a moment. "You're right, it's not the time. I'll challenge them when they become stronger."
Although the martial soul fusion skill of Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen gave him a slight sense of pressure, the two were still not strong enough.
Their cultivation levels were too low. He needed greater pressure to advance his swordsmanship further.
Ye Guyi quickly dispelled the martial soul fusion.
Maintaining the fusion state consumed soul power, and since there was no need for combat now, there was no point in wasting it.
Teacher Li, having regained his composure, looked at the testing pillar.
The red line on the pillar had unknowingly climbed to a height of seventy percent.
"The martial soul compatibility between Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen is seventy percent, and they have successfully fused."
Teacher Li announced with excitement. Having a martial soul fusion skill appear in his class would undoubtedly bring him rewards from the academy.
"So, Liuying, how impressive are we?"
Xu Tianzhen looked at Liuying with a proud expression, her face unable to hide her delight.
"Yes, very impressive. What's the name of your martial soul fusion skill?"
Liuying nodded in praise. Having exchanged memories with Liuxing, Liuying knew just how powerful martial soul fusion skills could be.
Whether it was the Golden Holy Dragon of the Golden Iron Triangle, the Dragon-Snake Combo of the Dragon-Snake Duo, or the Two Pole Static Field of the Chrysanthemum and Ghost Douluo from the Spirit Hall, all were trump cards that allowed one to fight above their level.
She was genuinely happy for Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen to possess such a skill.
"Well, let's call it Solar Angel."
Ignoring Xu Tianzhen, who was still pondering what to name their martial soul fusion skill, Ye Guyi decisively declared.
"Good name."
Liuxing smiled. Ye Guyi's angel martial soul combined with Xu Tianzhen's sun martial soul, what else could it be but a Solar Angel?
He remembered that Ye Guyi's ancestor, Qian Renxue, had a divine skill called Solar Angel, which was incredibly powerful. Compared to Qian Renxue, Ye Guyi's Sacred Angel lacked the fire attribute, but after fusing with Xu Tianzhen, that attribute was now complete.
"Still, seventy percent compatibility is quite impressive."
Liuxing was also somewhat surprised by how compatible Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen's martial souls were.
This was likely related to the Six-Winged Angel, a divine martial soul with the three attributes of holy, light, and fire.
The compatibility between Meng Hongchen and Xiao Hongchen's martial souls was only sixty percent, and most of the White Tiger Duke's lineage's Netherworld White Tiger fusions were also around sixty percent.
In the history of Douluo Continent, the highest recorded martial soul compatibility was that of the Golden Iron Triangle, reaching ninety-nine percent.
The powerful aura emanating from Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen's martial soul fusion piqued Xue Nu's interest.
She pulled the ever-obedient Nana into the testing area.
As for why she didn't choose Liuxing or Liuying, it was obvious, those two would never team up with anyone else.
Although Xue Nu was also at the Soul Elder level, the precedent set by Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen meant her appearance didn't cause as much of a stir, though it still drew some admiration.
Unfortunately, the compatibility between Xue Nu and Nana's martial souls was extremely low, only ten percent.
Finally, it was Liuxing and Liuying's turn. The two exchanged a glance, confidence in their eyes.
If Ye Guyi and Xu Tianzhen could achieve such high compatibility and instantly awaken a martial soul fusion skill, there was no reason they couldn't do the same.
Their martial souls were the same, their soul rings were the same, their soul skills were the same, and even Liuxing's body was shaped by Liuying.
With the life-sharing ritual between them, if their martial soul compatibility wasn't high, it would defy all logic.
So, the two were brimming with confidence. All that remained was to see just how high their martial soul compatibility would be.
