Supreme Star Card Master

The Soul Card originated from the soul, and the Power of Soul originated from the Soul Card.

The awakening of the Power of Soul had a close relationship with the Soul Card.

Human Star Card Masters most commonly awakened the Soul Cards from the Ten Constant Elements Series. Yet, even among Star Card Masters of the same series, the Power of Soul could vary wildly, with a plethora of unusual powers.

Irina's "Photon Explosion," for instance, was a power awakened from a Light Element Soul Card.

As for Ryan, a Water Element Star Card Master, the power he possessed was "Stacked Waves."

As for how this power worked...

At its core, the power of any skill was determined by the strength of Star Power.

When Star Power strength was limited, boosting Star Power could also enhance a skill's power.

However, boosting Star Power did not lead to a 100% increase in power.

For instance, Hellfire could not increase its power eighteenfold by combining eighteen Hellfire flames. Each additional Hellfire flame only brought about a 30-40% increase in power.

The trait of Gray Flame Strike, "Twin," was powerful because it allowed for the perfect stacking of two Gray Flame Strikes, directly doubling the power.

Ryan's "Stacked Waves" allowed him to perfectly stack the same skill multiple times, thereby exponentially increasing its power!

Whether in offense or defense, continuous stacking could cause the power to soar dramatically.

Although there were limits, this ability was already considered quite monstrous at the Gold Level. With this ability, he even had a chance to defeat a Shining Star!

Thus, Ryan's battle strategy was simple: stack "defense" to ensure his safety while continuously stacking "attack" to overpower his opponents with sheer frontal force.

Now, with five layers of the Reflow Barrier around him, it was nearly impossible for any Gold Level opponent to break through. He was virtually invincible!

"So next, I need to defeat him as quickly as possible!"

Ryan took a deep breath, "Stacked Waves" was powerful, but its downside was the massive energy consumption!

Now, Ryan needed to quickly unleash his skills to crush Su Yuan!

With his hands rapidly performing seals, a large amount of water-colored Star Power gathered and compressed. One by one, basketball-sized Water Balls appeared.

This skill was called Sea Shark Rampage. Each Water Ball could transform into a bloodthirsty Sea Shark capable of killing a Gold Level opponent!

By relying on the Stacked Waves technique, Ryan could summon up to seven Sea Sharks, which combined to form the Sea Shark King. Even a Shining Star may not be able to withstand it!

As Ryan was unleashing his full power, a subtle yet intense heat emanated from the air in front of him.

Ryan looked up to see Su Yuan shaking his sleeve. A ball of black flames flew straight over from afar.

Ryan was indifferent. The five-layer Reflow Barrier could not be broken easily by Gerard's power, let alone by a mere Great Flame Student who had only enhanced his Star Power through strong enhancement techniques.

However, the moment the black flames touched the Reflow Barrier, the five layers of the barrier reacted violently as if they had met their nemesis!

The black flames ruthlessly corroded the Reflow Barrier. Under the extreme heat, large volumes of water rapidly evaporated, and white mist filled the arena in an instant!

"How is this possible!"

Ryan was shocked. How could his five-layer Reflow Barrier be so easily destroyed by a single ball of black flames!

In that brief moment, the black flames had already burned a large hole in the Reflow Barrier and had penetrated inside.

The domineering power no longer needed to be restrained. The fiery force that burned everything instantly filled the entire space!

"This... this is Divine Fire?!"

Realizing this, every hair on Ryan's body stood on end.

In panic, Ryan dared not hesitate. With a swift seal technique, the five just-formed Water Balls exploded simultaneously, each transforming into a blue Sea Shark and converging in front of him.

The five sharks merged, and with a tremendous surge of energy, a ferocious and ghastly Sea Shark King covered in black spikes charged out.

"Quick, bite it to pieces!" At this moment, Ryan's tone had an edge of panic.

The ferocious Sea Shark lunged at the Undead Evil Fire, biting furiously. Each bite came with energy nearing the power of a Shining Star, and intense energy fluctuations spread out, truly spectacular.

Had it been any ordinary Divine Fire, it might actually have been gradually chewed up by this Sea Shark King!

But what it was biting on was the Undead Evil Fire!

Chewing away bit by bit at an endlessly regenerating Undead Evil Fire?

Impossible!

The black flames surged, and the blue Sea Shark suddenly trembled violently. The black flames it had swallowed reignited within its body, burning through, and in a moment, it was incinerated completely!

"Damn it, damn it! How could it be Divine Fire!"

Ryan retreated while continuously blasting spells at the black flames. However, such hasty attacks couldn't even hinder the Undead Evil Fire!

"A cornered beast's struggle."

Su Yuan's expression was calm. With a thought, the Undead Evil Fire shot toward Ryan again, catching up in a moment.

"No! ...Ah!"

In just a blink, the Undead Evil Fire had turned Ryan's left arm to ashes and continued spreading towards his shoulder!

Ryan no longer had any semblance of his previous composure. Faced with the threat of the Divine Fire, with life hanging by a thread, he could no longer maintain his refined image or fear of Moss's punishment. Terrified, he shouted out!

"Stop! I surrender, I surrender!"
