Lin Ran stood motionless, and Luo Qingyan found herself lost in a daze for a moment.
Then, she suddenly remembered that Lin Ran possessed an SS-rank talent, the Natural Spiritual Body, hailed as the pinnacle of pure defensive talents.
This level of offensive power was indeed somewhat lacking against the Natural Spiritual Body.
At this moment, the audience in the stands also reacted.
"Damn it! This SS-rank talent, the Natural Spiritual Body, is so unfair! Such powerful impact, and he doesn't even flinch!"
"What? That guy is a Natural Spiritual Body? But shouldn't Natural Spiritual Bodies have no offensive power at all?"
"Are you an idiot??? He has bloodline abilities!!! How many times do I have to say it???"
"Uh... but, does a bloodline ability really exist that can control space, manipulate lightning, and wield black flames?"
"Who knows... Anyway, his abilities must have a source, right? If it's not talent, it must be bloodline."
"If you put it that way, then it's indeed true..."
"..."
Seeing Luo Qingyan's serious expression, Lin Ran smiled.
"Qingyan, be careful, I'm about to get serious..."
As Luo Qingyan bit her lip, about to say something, a sapphire blue energy skeleton suddenly emerged from Lin Ran's side.
This energy skeleton was arm-shaped, appearing massive and sturdy, and it also wielded a sapphire blue energy sword in its hand.
Susanoo!
Lin Ran had activated another ultimate ocular technique of the Sharingan.
He had originally intended to defeat Luo Qingyan using only the abilities of the Op-Op Fruit.
But later, he found that Luo Qingyan's Holy Light was far more concentrated than expected.
It would be very difficult to break free from control relying solely on an SSS-rank talent, the Holy Angel.
This young girl likely possessed a bloodline ability that enhanced her Holy Light.
Furthermore, the magic barrier created by her Divine Sanctuary was quite restrictive to his Room domain.
If he only used the Op-Op Fruit, to win, he would probably have to slowly deplete Luo Qingyan's magic power before claiming victory.
With the Soul Ring's endurance, using Susanoo alone would be enough to last for a long time.
So, it would be better to be more direct and just use Susanoo.
"My heavens! This! This! This!"
"What is this thing? Such a huge energy arm, can a freshman really manifest this?"
"So spectacular... I'm stunned..."
"And haven't you noticed? At the end of this energy arm, there's a faint ring of ribs that also encloses his body."
"It's actually an all-around offense and defense skill?! This is too monstrous!"
"But judging by its appearance, this move should consume an exorbitant amount of magic power."
"This is probably its only flaw..."
"..."
As for Lü Qiufeng and the other four, they exchanged glances, not knowing what to say.
Finally, Lin Miao spoke up first:
"Qiufeng, do you still feel that your judgment of Lin Ran's bloodline ability was correct?"
Lü Qiufeng took a deep breath and said:
"If it's not the Eternal Night Monarch, then what exactly is Lin Ran's bloodline ability..."
No one answered him.
The group could only gaze at Lin Ran's Susanoo in contemplation.
On the stage.
Facing the exaggerated Susanoo arm, Luo Qingyan gritted her teeth and let out a low cry:
"Angel Form!"
Following Luo Qingyan's call, a Holy Light arm similar to Susanoo materialized beside her. It wielded a light sword no smaller than Susanoo's energy sword, and behind her, the radiance of angel wings faintly flickered.
Seeing Luo Qingyan also summon a strange large construct, the onlookers didn't know what kind of stunned expressions to wear anymore.
"What is this now!"
"Why are we still playing one-on-one fights, while they've already started piloting mechs to brawl?"
"Heavens, due to their insufficient strength, they can only manifest an arm at the moment."
"If they reach a higher level in the future, won't they be able to manifest complete mechs?"
"Then once they get inside the mechs, they'll be proper mincemeat grinders!"
"Such a skill would be a top-tier weapon against large-scale fierce beasts and alien races!"
"Indeed... it feels like these two will definitely receive full cultivation from the school..."
"..."
Among the five department heads, the other four who didn't understand the intricacies were merely somewhat surprised.
But Lin Miao, who was knowledgeable, let out a cry of disbelief:
"Angel Form?!"
"She can actually use this move as a first-order awakened being?!"
Lü Qiufeng glanced at Lin Miao strangely:
"What's so strange about that?"
Lin Miao rolled her eyes at him, annoyed:
"You don't understand anything!"
"Even with her SSS-rank talent, the Holy Angel, to use the Angel Form manifestation skill, one would need at least the strength of a sixth-order awakened being."
"Otherwise, the quality of the Holy Light within would not be enough to support the construction of the Angel Form's body!"
"Now that Qingyan can use it as a first-order awakened being, it only proves that she possesses a bloodline ability that enhances Holy Light!"
Ling Shangqing looked at Lin Miao with surprise:
"Then, if her bloodline ability is related to enhancing Holy Light, what could be the dark power hidden within Qingyan?"
Lin Miao sighed:
"That, I don't know..."
"There are too many secrets hidden within Lin Ran and Luo Qingyan."
"Perhaps what we are seeing now is just the tip of the iceberg..."
Unlike the worried Lin Miao, Gao Xian smiled with relief.
"It doesn't matter. They are students of our Yan University anyway, so the more secrets they have, the better."
"The stronger they are, the stronger Yan University becomes. It's all good!"
Xu Lei laughed at him, exasperated:
"You're quite optimistic..."
Gao Xian chuckled:
"Otherwise? Are we going to cry just because we've gained these two peerless geniuses?"
...
On the stage.
Lin Ran was now manipulating Susanoo and had engaged Luo Qingyan's Angel Form in battle.
One swung an energy sword, the other a light sword, clashing with resounding clangs, scattering energy fragments everywhere.
However, regarding the two controllers, Lin Ran's expression was considerably more relaxed.
This was mainly because, firstly, his physical condition, enhanced by the Natural Spiritual Body, far surpassed Luo Qingyan's.
Secondly, the completeness of his Susanoo's manifestation was also superior to Luo Qingyan's Angel Form.
After all, in addition to the arms, the ribs of Susanoo could already be faintly seen.
Angel Form, however, only had a single, solitary arm, and its color was much fainter than Lin Ran's Susanoo.
In terms of energy quality, it was clearly at a disadvantage.
