"Please.... show us all what you have learnt".
Cloudy Moon just nodded, before taking a deep breath, the flush from his face fading away as he gathered his focus.
A few of the more open minded geniuses unconsciously nodded, although Purple Mist, Arthur and Vladimir all remained unmoved.
Being able to gather their focus and remove all emotions from their heart during a battle was an important factor of any Fae Master. If one couldn't even do something as simple as sever their unnecessary emotions during battle, then they would inevitably get distracted.
Such a simple thing could possibly lead to their loss, or if it was a life and death battle, the destruction of their Mind, Body and Soul.
Cloudy Moon let out a deep breath of qi, releasing a stream of white air several metres away.
Activating numerous different Fae within his origin essence seas, Cloudy Moon flicked out his arm, summoning two different Coffins from one of his Storage Fae.
The Coffins burst open, revealing two Corpses....
"Wait a second.... that's a spirit beast", someone muttered.
The left Corpse was easy to identify. A relatively common Corpse within the White Dominion Sect, one that was given to every single inner sect disciple upon their ascension from the outer sect to the inner sect.
A unique product, whose method of creation can only be found within the White Dominion Sect; the Thoughtful White Corpse.
A dual Thought-Corpse Attributed Corpse, one with a pseudo-spiritual sea within it, allowing it to store Thoughts, and unique Fae associated with Thoughts and the spiritual sea.
The other Coffin however was-.
"Hmm. I don't recognize it".
"Neither do I. Is it something from our Corpse Shore or something?".
"Perhaps Cloudy Moon received it from one of the Elders in the inner sect?".
An unfamiliar voice cut through the crowd.
"It's a Spiritless Frog. A type of Corpse Attributed spirit beast without any intelligence. It only possesses desires, leading to an imbalance between its Emotions and Thoughts. It can only seed water, food and other Spiritless Frogs in order to mate and reproduce with....".
A few of the slightly more knowledgeable young Fae Masters nodded, turning towards the young woman who spoke up. The all glanced at Milena, who was observing the Corpse and the spirit beast on stage, with eager eyes and a wide smile on her face.
They didn't recognize her, and she wasn't a member of the White Dominion Sect either.
She must've been some sort of wandering Fae Master who Violet Sunglass invited.
A few of them smirked and glanced at each other, not bothering to respond to her words. She was definitely right, but ever since the Variation Era several hundred thousand years ago, there existed more Fae and spirit beasts than one could imagine.
Such an obscure piece of knowledge was useless, especially after hearing that the spirit beast wasn't very valuable.
Their opinion of this Cloudy Moon fell even further.
Arthur raised an eyebrow, humming slightly.
"He's got the right idea, but he mixes too many paths together. Still, his knowledge and perception must be pretty high for him to try something like this".
Vladimir nodded slightly as well.
He could at least see what this Cloudy Moon was trying to accomplish.
Cloudy Moon narrowed his eyes, extending both his arms, and placing his palms flat on the backs of both the Thoughtless White Corpse and the Spiritless Frog.
Activating a series of Connection Fae, Linking Fae, Corpse Absorption Fae, Flesh Absorption Fae, Bone Absorption Fae, Resonance Fae, Harmony Fae, Blood Flowing Fae, Purification Fae, Severing Fae and numerous other Rank 1 and Rank 2 Fae, Cloudy Moon activated his pseudo Attribute Control Skill.
"Pseudo Corpse Attribute Control Skill: Three Corpses One King".
The spirit beast and the corpse suddenly both entered Cloudy Moon's body. They were suddenly absorbed into his palms, the flesh, blood and essence of both spirit beast and corpse flowed into Cloudy Moon, as the young man's eyes suddenly grew bloodshot, as the flesh beneath his clothes started rippling.
As if a rock being dropped into a still lake, ripples and waves flowed out from Cloudy Moon's palms, extending all the way up his arms, towards his shoulder, chest, abdomen and lower body.
The veins on his arms and neck grew more pronounced, and his figure suddenly increased in size, growing from almost six feet in height, to more than nine feet in a matter of moments.
His figure became more hunched, and his arms became elongated, under the effects of the Thoughtless White Corpse.
Despite his increased size, his muscle density didn't decrease in the slightest, and his bloodshot eyes still gleamed with intelligence and spirituality.
Some of his hair turned gray, while the nails on both his hands and feet turned blackened, as if affected by Hatred Fae.
Numerous Fae Masters in the crowd unconsciously widened their eyes as they gazed at the sudden transformation of Cloudy Moon. Cloudy Moon was only a solid quartz origin essence Fae Master, so they all thought that his cultivation would be extremely lacking, and by extension his strength.
Cloudy Moon's voice became much deeper and the nine foot tall young man clenched his fists tightly.
"This pseudo Attribute Control Skill was created by my Ancestor. He possessed Corpse Laws, which he infused into the Attribute Control Skill. If I had even just reached the first level of Corpse Laws, this Attribute Control Skill would allow me to fight a Rank 2 Fae Master in close combat".
Cloudy Moon shot out a few punches.
The sound of air being cut echoed throughout the martial stage, and a few gusts of wind managed to reach the audience in the stands.
Violet Sunglass just smiled, clapping her hands.
"What an impressive Attribute Control Skill Junior Apprentice Brother Moon! Is there anything else you would like to show us?".
The solid quartz origin essence Fae Master just shook his head, slowly reversing the transformation.
"My cultivation is lacking and I cannot keep the Attribute Control Skill up for more than an a quarter of an hour. If I fight, that time would decrease even further".
Cloudy Moon appeared more humble in the eyes of many other geniuses present. A few like-minded individuals nodded, making a mental note to perhaps get closer to Cloudy Moon.
Being one of the youngest people present, he was obviously a talented young man, who earnestly walked the path of Corpses. His attainments in the School of Mummification wasn't that high, but his level in the School of Transfiguration was considerable for his age.
Being able to take in two Corpses into his body, after only being a Fae Master for a single year.
That was the mark of a genius.
Despite the fact that the Thoughtless White Corpse and the Spiritless Frog were extremely easy things to transfigure onto oneself, it was still quite a promising thing to see.
The Spiritless Frog which only had Desires.
And the Thoughtless White Corpse which could only store Thoughts.
With himself as the "Emotions", Cloudy Moon was able to balance out the suddenly influx of Desires and Thoughts, although the Spiritless Frog and the Thoughtless White Corpse were of an extremely low quality.
Both were only Rank 1, and in terms of fighting capabilities, alone they weren't anything special. Only when Cloudy Moon joined together with them, did he have the capacity to fight.
That was undoubtably his greatest weakness.
Violet Sunglass just smiled before turning back towards the crowd.
"Would anyone like to go next?".
