Dragon Emperor Douluo, Tang Lingluo
————————————————————————————————————————
Therefore, he suddenly let go of the hammer in his left hand and let it fly out of his hand. It flew straight for Wu Zhangkong.
Wu Zhangkong casually flicked the wooden sword in his hand and struck the hammer in his left hand horizontally.
Tang Lingluo returned to Wu Zhangkong's side. His golden pupils had been tainted with a faint golden hue.
A burst of blood!
"Spirit of Words, Immortal!"
[Effect: Strengthens one's physical body. It can even strengthen one's body to the level of titanium alloy. One punch can pierce through bulletproof steel plates.]
"Spirit of Words·Ghost Victory·Three times restriction removed!”
"Spirit of Words, Bronze Throne!"
Dragon scales emerged from Tang Lingluo's skin. Fortunately, he was covered by his clothes, and the change in his blood was not obvious. Therefore, from the perspective of others, Tang Lingluo did not seem to have changed much.
As Tang Lingluo chanted the incantation, his skin turned green.
"Boom!"
Wu Zhangkong's martial soul was a sword. He pursued the realm of breaking all techniques with a single sword. Thus, no matter what the enemy's attack was or who the enemy was, he could only rely on his sword.
However, he was at a disadvantage this time.
Wu Zhangkong felt a powerful force from the wooden sword in his hand. Although it couldn't compare to his own strength, it wasn't too far off. He hadn't released his martial soul yet, so he had only used a small portion of his soul power. He immediately realized that his wooden sword was somewhat unable to withstand it.
Before he could pour even more soul power into it, the wooden sword transmitted three layers of power in succession.
Wu Zhangkong saw a hammer.
"Kacha!" The wooden sword broke, and the Thousand Refined Heavy Silver Hammer flew toward his head.
Wu Zhangkong's figure flashed as he dodged the Thousand Refined Heavy Silver Hammers.
The seemingly small forging hammer landed with a loud boom, startling Xie Xie and Gu Yue who were about to rush over to support him.
Tang Lingluo actually forced Teacher Wu back and broke his wooden sword?
Tang Lingluo quickly took a few steps back and held the Heavy Silver Hammer in his right hand to protect his chest. In front.
Wu Zhangkong stopped in his tracks, a little stunned. He had already realized that there was something strange about Tang Lingluo's hammer.
"Stop!" He raised his hand to stop Gu Yue and Xie Xie, who were about to continue attacking.
Xie Xie looked at Tang Lingluo with a strange expression. Then, he looked at the gray hammer on the ground that he had never seen before. For a moment, he felt a lingering fear in his heart.
Back then, when they first fought, he was entangled. If he used this hammer to hit himself after he had circled around him…
Tang Lingluo quickly ran over and picked up his Thousand Refined Heavy Silver Hammer, putting it into his dragon soul ring.
"Your hammer is strange." Wu Zhangkong looked at him doubtfully.
" This is a Heavy Silver hammer," Tang Lingluo said." It's slightly heavier than a normal forging hammer.”
"How heavy! Let me see." Xie Xie was very interested in the hammer that could break Teacher Wu's wooden sword. He quickly ran over and grabbed the Thousand Refined Heavy Silver Hammer in Tang Lingluo's hand.
However, no one saw the smirk on Tang Lingluo's face.
"Clang!" The Heavy Silver Hammer fell to the ground the moment it left Tang Ling's hand. Xie Xie fell flat on the ground due to the inertia.
"Aiyo!" Xie Xie cried out in pain. Why is it so heavy?"
Wu Zhangkong walked over and picked up the Thousand Refined Heavy Silver Hammer. He couldn't help but be moved. No wonder his wooden sword was broken. The weight of this hammer…
" It's about 150 kilograms each," Tang Lingluo said.”
"There were three waves of energy that came from it just now. Were they under your control or something else?" Wu Zhangkong asked.”
" It's the hammer's own ability." Tang Lingluo hesitated for a moment." After the metal is thousand refined, it will produce some unknown special effects. I also have this Heavy Silver Hammer, it's called Stacked Hammer.”
Although Wu Zhangkong didn't know much about forging, he could tell how valuable the hammers were. "You're very talented in forging?" I've done some research. Mu Xi, who challenged you to a forging competition with Tang Wulin today, is the daughter of the president of Eastsea City's Blacksmith's Association.”
"Yes, my brother and I are blacksmiths.”Tang Wulin felt much better when he recalled the courteous treatment he received at the Blacksmith's Association.
Wu Zhangkong's eyes revealed a pensive look. He raised his hand and said to Tang Wulin,"Come, hold my hand."
Tang Wulin held Wu Zhangkong's hand. Wu Zhangkong's hand was large, and his fingers were slender and powerful. They were cold but not rough at all.
"Pull me with all your strength. Let me feel how strong you are.”Wu Zhangkong said.
"Oh." Tang Wulin responded. He took a deep breath and exerted strength in his arms.
Wu Zhangkong was prepared this time. He stood rooted to the ground like a nail.
Tang Wulin's face gradually turned red as he went all out. Although Wu Zhangkong did not move, the faint soul power fluctuations on his body showed that he was not having it easy. He needed to use his soul power to support himself from being pulled by Tang Lingluo.
"Alright." A moment later, Wu Zhangkong called for a halt.
Only then did Tang Wulin retract his strength.
Wu Zhangkong's cold face flashed with a strange expression. He patted Tang Wulin's shoulder. If your strength can reach such a level, then our strategy will be interesting.”
By the time Tang Lingluo, Tang Wulin, and Xie Xie returned to their dormitory, they were already exhausted. It was already difficult for them to sit cross-legged and meditate, let alone continue forging.
From the second day onwards, Tang Lingluo and Tang Wulin were exempted from physical training. The reason was simple. In Wu Zhangkong's opinion, his physical fitness was inferior to Tang Lingluo and Tang Wulin. Normal training was useless against the two prodigies. He might as well spend his time on other cultivation.
Tang Wulin's task wasn't easy either. It was to control the Bluesilver Grass.
As for Tang Lingluo…He was currently being abused by Wu Zhangkong.
" Ahhhhh!!!"
Hearing Tang Lingluo's scream, everyone in class five, including Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Gu Yue, shivered in fear.
Tang Wulin and the other two still remembered Wu Zhangkong's words from that night.
"Tang Lingluo, your stamina and strength are almost stronger than mine. Normal training won't be able to help you anymore.”
"Teacher Wu, how should I train then?”
"Combat! The only thing you lack now is combat experience.”
'Why do I have a bad feeling?' Tang Lingluo thought.
"Then my opponent is…"
"It's me!"
Wu Zhangkong's cold voice had completely extinguished Tang Lingluo's last hope.
On the third day of the physical education class, the other students of the first grade's class five finally couldn't hold on any longer and collapsed. From that day onwards, they resumed physical fitness classes in the morning and theory classes in the afternoon.
With only half a day of physical training, the students actually felt much more relaxed, and no one complained.
Tang Lingluo, Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Gu Yue were tested for their spiritual power. The results were shocking. Xie Xie's spiritual power was twenty-nine. This was already a pretty good result among his peers. He was close to the middle level of the Spirit Origin Stage. On the other hand, Tang Wulin's spiritual power was forty-four, which was equivalent to the middle level of the Spirit Origin Stage. However, he did not mention that his spiritual power was only thirty-eight during the last test. His spiritual power had improved a lot in such a short period of time.
Their spiritual power had already given Wu Zhangkong some surprises, but compared to Tang Lingluo and Gu Yue, they were truly inconspicuous.
Gu Yue's spiritual power was as high as 119. It was no longer in the Spirit Origin Stage.
The first level of spiritual power was the Spirit Origin realm. When one's spiritual power exceeded 100, they would immediately enter another level, which was called the Spirit Connection realm.
The Spirit Connection realm meant that one's mind was connected to one's will. Once one reached the Spirit Connection realm, one would begin to gain basic control over one's spiritual power. One would be able to control one's spiritual power for their own use, allowing one to carry two yellow spirit souls or one purple spirit soul.
Only then did Wu Zhangkong confirm that Gu Yue's martial soul, the Elementalist, was very likely a rare spirit-type martial soul. It communicated with the elements through powerful spiritual power and was used by her.
Spirit-type soul masters were the rarest and most popular in the current world because they were the most compatible with mechas. This made Wu Zhangkong pay more attention to Gu Yue.
As for Tang Lingluo? Wu Zhangkong expressed that this kid wasn't human at all. His spiritual power was as high as 589. It was directly in the range of the Spiritual Ocean Tier.
Of course, there was no difference in the difficulty of the training. The more attention she received from the cold and arrogant Prince Charming, the greater the amount of training.
After a week, Tang Wulin did not have the time to visit Mang Tian's workshop. Naturally, he was unable to complete his forging mission. On the other hand, Tang Lingluo had been " trained " by Wu Zhangkong for an entire week. She did not even have time to rest.
Tang Lingluo had almost forgotten about the communicator. As a soul master, he did not need to purchase a soul battery to charge it. He could use it normally with his own soul power.
The communicator displayed a special number.
"Hello." Tang Lingluo answered the call weakly.
"What are you doing with Tang Wulin?" A familiar voice came from the other end of the communicator. Tang Lingluo's heart warmed when he heard the voice and he quickly sat up.
"Teacher." Mang Tian's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"What's wrong with you two? A Level 2 mission, and he still hadn't completed it in a week?”Mang Tian's voice was extremely stern.
"No, teacher," Tang Lingluo quickly replied. Wulin and I have been training and studying every day recently, so we really don't have time to visit your workshop. Tomorrow is our weekly break. Wulin and I were planning to go over.”
"You're only in the first year of the Intermediate Academy, and you're already very busy?" Mang Tian asked after a moment of silence.”
Tang Lingluo briefly explained his cultivation since he arrived at the academy. Zhou Zhangxi, who was sitting on the upper bunk, poked his head over in a gossipy manner. Xie Xie also flipped over and looked at Tang Lingluo with dissatisfaction.
"Okay, then come over tomorrow. I'll be here too.”Mang Tian hung up.
"Hello, Tang Lingluo. Didn't you say you didn't have money? How could he use a soul communicator without money?”Xie Xie questioned in a bad mood.
"This is a blessing from the association," said Tang Wulin from the side. We didn't buy the profits. My brother and I can't afford it!"
"Association? What association?" Zhou Zhangxi asked curiously. On the other side, Yun Xiao, who was on the upper bunk, also poked his head out.
Needless to say, after a week of physical training, everyone's body had some obvious changes. They were all soul masters, so their recovery speed was much faster than ordinary people. For training that was difficult for ordinary people to withstand, they only needed to meditate for a night to recover most of it.
"Blacksmith's Association. My martial soul was innately lacking, so I started learning forging early on.”
"You're learning forging from Ling Luo and your strength has something to do with it, right?" Yun Xiao said thoughtfully.”
Tang Wulin nodded.
"Blacksmiths, are you the kind that purify metals?"”
Tang Wulin nodded again.
"Mm. If you can do well in this area, you'll have a bright future." I remember that my father once bought a mecha core component that was Thousand Refined by a blacksmith. It seemed quite expensive. When you guys reach the Master level in the future, how about purifying metals for me?”
"Are you going to become a mecha master?" Tang Lingluo asked curiously.”
"Of course," Xie Xie replied proudly,"My family is a famous clan of mecha masters. Naturally, I want to become a mecha master.”
Tang Wulin, Zhou Zhangxi, and Yun Xiao immediately got down from their bunks with great interest. For young people like them, mechas had always been their dream.
"Tell me, what's a real mecha master like? What are the conditions?" Zhou Zhangxi asked curiously.
Xie Xie had become familiar with them over the past few days. He had long lost his initial arrogance. The atmosphere in the dormitory was much more harmonious than before.
"After so many years of development, soul mechas have gone from being miniaturized at the beginning to being enlarged later on, and now, they have returned to being miniaturized again. After going through the entire cycle, the individual's combat strength had become stronger and stronger. A truly powerful mecha master's mecha was actually only about the size of a full suit of armor, but the amplification it gave them was huge. Coupled with the fusion of martial souls, they could become super soldiers. It was said that the mechas of god-ranked mecha masters were all made by themselves.”
"Doesn't that mean that all divine mecha masters are blacksmiths?”
Xie Xie rolled his eyes." Of course not. The forging I'm talking about is when a divine mecha master personally inscribes arrays on his mecha to make it more compatible with his body. Of course, if he knew how to forge, the compatibility would naturally be even higher. By the way, what level have you reached in your forging?”
Tang Lingluo hesitated for a moment, but he felt that he should not lie to his friend. When Xie Xie threatened Mu Xi for him and Wulin that day, he had already treated Xie Xie as a friend.
"I can barely thousand refine it," Tang Lingluo said.”。
Yun Xiao and Zhou Zhangxi didn't know much about forging, but Xie Xie, who came from an aristocratic family, knew a little about it. He asked in surprise,"Doesn't that mean that your forging standards have already reached the Master level?”
"Not yet. We're second rank blacksmiths." Tang Lingluo shook his head.”
"Wow!" Yun Xiao exclaimed. Although he didn't know much about blacksmithing, he was very clear about the professional level." You're only nine years old, but you're already a second-grade professional?”It should be known that a Level 2 professional could easily support himself and had the ability to survive in society. They were still children. Putting aside Tang Lingluo's monstrous talent, even though Tang Wulin's martial soul was Bluesilver Grass, it would be a different story if he was a second-rank professional.
III. A level-1 professional was a qualitative leap. At that level, one would have already stepped into the threshold of high society. At Level 5, no matter what profession they were in, they were the true elites of society and were known as master craftsmen.
Xie Xie's eyes darted around as if he suddenly thought of something. He wrapped his arms around Tang Lingluo's neck and said,"Ling Luo, are we brothers?”
Tang Lingluo glared at him." You're either a traitor or a thief. Just tell me what you want."”
Xie Xie chuckled." Nothing much. You can help me forge mecha parts in the future, right? How was it? Don't worry, I'll pay you according to the market price.”
"Do you still need me for this?" Tang Lingluo asked in confusion. Why don't you just go to our Blacksmith's Guild and issue a mission? It's the market price anyway."
Xie Xie looked at him in surprise." It seems like you don't really understand the blacksmithing industry! Do you think that someone will definitely accept the mission? There were very few blacksmiths above the Master rank. Even fewer people were willing to accept the Thousand Refinements. Not just anyone could get in. It took my father four years to Thousand Refine all the parts of his mecha, and that was under the circumstance that he had a good relationship with the Blacksmith's Association. If you can Thousand Refine now, you should be able to reach the Master rank in a few years. As my exclusive blacksmith, won't I be able to Thousand Refine a mecha faster? That is the symbol of true nobility."
Yun Xiao and Zhou Zhangxi's eyes lit up.
" Alright." Tang Lingluo nodded helplessly." I'll help you when I'm at that level."”At the same time, he thought to himself, Master a skill and create a happy life.”
"Good brother!" Xie Xie hugged him tightly and announced loudly,"From today onwards, Tang Lingluo and Tang Wulin are under my protection. Whoever dares to offend him will have to ask my Light Dragon Dagger for permission first.”
"Cough cough!" Yun Xiao coughed." You should wait until you defeat Gu Yue before saying that."”
