When everyone else was paying attention to how high you flew, only your parents were concerned about whether you were tired from flying.
Dragon Emperor Douluo, Tang Lingluo
—————————————————————————————————————————
Yes, that was exactly what Tang Wulin was doing now. In his eyes, Xie Xie was no longer a person, but a piece of metal that he was forging. His heart gradually entered the ethereal state of forging. Xie Xie's actions, which had been too much for his eyes to take in, seemed to have slowed down. Everything seemed to have a trajectory to follow.
He swung his Thousand Refined tungsten hammer in this situation and blocked Xie Xie's attacks twice in a row.
Xie Xie had not even launched his third attack when he felt a gust of evil wind blowing against his face. Tang Wulin swung his hammer down again. From the ear-piercing sound, one could tell how heavy the hammer was.
Xie Xie dodged in a panic, but Tang Wulin had already unleashed his twin hammers and was smashing toward him like a storm. For a moment, the whimper of the hammer wind stirred up the dust on the ground, forcing Xie Xie to retreat step by step.
Light Dragon Dagger didn't dare to take it head-on. He was an agility-type soul master. Even if the opponent relied on pure strength, the might of his martial soul was somewhat unable to be unleashed. In terms of strength, the difference was indeed huge.
Xie Xie's figure flashed as he retreated explosively in an instant, pulling the distance between him and Tang Wulin. Tang Wulin did not give chase. In fact, he could not catch up to Xie Xie at all. He subconsciously stopped his hammers, but his eyes were still narrowed as he stared at Xie Xie.
This bastard! Xie Xie cursed in his heart. His eyes also began to turn sharp.
Xie Xie took a deep breath and his expression turned solemn. His right hand that was holding the Light Dragon Dagger moved slightly to the side while his left hand was raised at the same time. His aura suddenly changed and instantly became even stronger.
He tapped his toes lightly on the ground, and when he flew up again, he actually left a faint afterimage in the air. His speed was at least 30% faster than before.
Tang Wulin swung his twin hammers at the same time under the guidance of his aura!
Xie Xie was in the air. He lightly tapped the Light Dragon Dagger in his right hand on Tang Wulin's Thousand Refined tungsten steel hammer. He used the momentum to flip into the air and swung his left hand toward Tang Wulin.
There was a soft "puff" sound as a bloody scar appeared on Tang Wulin's back.
The intense pain immediately jolted Tang Wulin out of his ethereal state. He staggered and felt a burning pain on his back. At the same time, a warm current gushed out from his spine.
Under such circumstances, Tang Wulin was not alarmed. Instead, he was delighted. Golden scales were about to appear?
So the golden scales would only appear when they were attacked?
However, just as he stood firm, the warm current surging in his body quietly dissipated. It was not as scorching as the last time. Golden scales and powerful strength appeared directly.
"Stop!" Wu Zhangkong had appeared in the middle of them and called a halt to the competition.
"Xie Xie wins!"
Xie Xie heaved a sigh of relief. A hint of pride flashed in his eyes. He had finally won! He finally won once. Tears streamed down his face!
"You'll be responsible for compensating Tang Wulin with a school uniform.”
" Uh…" Didn't I win? Shouldn't there be a reward? Xie Xie felt his vision darken. Why did Tang Lingluo and Tang Wulin always make him lose money?
Why?
Wu Zhangkong looked around the class and coldly said,"The competition is over. Do you know what kind of feeling you give me?”
"Rotten wood cannot be carved!" This cold and arrogant Prince Charming directly answered his own question.
"No wonder you were assigned to class five. You're all trash. However, even if you are a piece of scrap metal, I will refine you into steel. All of you have witnessed the competition just now. What is Tang Wulin's martial soul? The publicly acknowledged trash martial soul Bluesilver Grass, but, he fought to the finals, and even almost won.”
"I won!" Xie Xie's heart was filled with grief and indignation. Why did he sound as if he had lost?
Wu Zhangkong didn't care what he thought. He continued,"He doesn't just rely on Blue Silver Grass, he also relies on his body's ability. Perhaps some people would say that physical strength was useful at this stage, but it would be useless once everyone's soul power increased and they had more soul skills. But let me tell you. You basically don't have the qualifications to think about this kind of thing like having many spirit abilities. Ask yourselves, how many people can reach the level of possessing a second spirit ring? How many people could possess more soul skills? And the body is your own, what can a strong physique do?”
"Soul power is no longer the entry requirement for mecha masters. Powerful energy storage soul devices allow ordinary people to become mecha masters. However, a strong body is the foundation of a mecha master. Without a strong body, you will not be able to withstand the impact of the mecha and high-intensity battles. Therefore, in view of the fact that your spirits are too weak, starting tomorrow, our class will undergo special physical training. Physical fitness in the morning and theoretical knowledge in the afternoon. That's all for today's class. As for today's competition, think about it carefully when you go back. In the afternoon, he taught meditation in theory class. Dismissed!"
These words were the longest that the cold and arrogant Prince Charming had said since he became the form teacher. There was no preaching in them, but he was telling the truth. Whether it was calling them trash or announcing that they were going to undergo special training, it was the most certain tone.
"Xie Xie, Tang Wulin, Tang Lingluo, the three of you follow me.”With that, Wu Zhangkong turned around and walked toward the teaching block.
Are you going to give out the rewards? Xie Xie's eyes lit up with joy. Before he came to the academy, he had heard that there were usually rewards for competitions held in the academy. Moreover, the rewards were pretty good. He was the champion, the champion of class five. Teacher Wu was so powerful, what would the reward be? He had already begun to fantasize in his heart.
Wu Zhangkong led the three of them to his office. His office was pitifully small, only ten square meters. Other than a desk, a bookcase, and a chair, there was nothing else.
"When I said trash just now, I included the three of you!”Xie Xie's good mood was completely wiped out by the cold and arrogant Prince Charming's first sentence.
Shouldn't there be a reward? At the very least, it was a little encouraging.
Wu Zhangkong looked at Tang Lingluo and Tang Wulin." Your performance today wasn't bad, but you didn't unleash your full potential. Tang Wulin, your Bluesilver Grass must have mutated, right? But your spirit power is too weak, you can't hold on for too long. Under such circumstances, as long as the opponent's spirit power was higher than yours, you wouldn't have much of a chance. What's with your pair of hammers?”
"I learned forging from my brother," Tang Wulin said helplessly.”
Wu Zhangkong's eyebrows twitched." Forging? Why are you two soul masters learning forging? A stupid bird flies first and enters the forest early. You're already a stupid bird, but you're still wasting time on meaningless things.”
"But everyone says that my martial soul is trash, and my spirit soul isn't good either…" Tang Wulin lowered his head.
Wu Zhangkong interrupted him." So you're planning to become a blacksmith? Nonsense! Remember, you are my student. Before I judge you as trash, you must work hard to develop in the direction of soul masters.”
The corner of Xie Xie's mouth twitched.'Didn't you just say that the three of us are trash? At this moment, he was already feeling a little sympathetic towards Tang Wulin. Of course, this was also because he had just won.
"Oh." Tang Lingluo and Tang Wulin agreed, but they would not give up forging. The sense of accomplishment they had gained from forging made it impossible for them to give up. Tang Wulin had always felt defeated by his martial soul!
Wu Zhangkong turned to Xie Xie." What are you laughing at? Do you think you're better than Tang Wulin? It must be fun to hide twin martial souls. Soul power at rank-18 was mostly due to the innate advantage of twin martial souls. Innate full spirit power. Are you proud of this?”
Xie Xie raised his head and looked at Wu Zhangkong in astonishment. How did he know everything?
"You're still far from it." Wu Zhangkong replied coldly. There were also trash with twin martial souls. As an agility-type soul master, being forced to use twin spirits by a Bluesilver Grass soul master, was it very glorious?”
" I…" Xie Xie's face was flushed red. He was momentarily speechless.
"Teacher, what is twin martial souls?”Tang Wulin asked curiously.
Tang Lingluo sighed helplessly when he heard Tang Wulin's words."Wulin, aren't you asking for a scolding? He didn't even know about Twin Martial Souls. Twin Martial Souls meant that a person had two Martial Souls!”
Wu Zhangkong furrowed his brows." Is your elementary academy teacher a good-for-nothing? You don't even know about twin martial souls? Twin martial souls meant having two martial souls. The benefits of having two martial souls were obvious. Generally, the possessor of twin martial souls had innate full soul power. Cultivation was much easier, and both spirits could be attached with spirit rings. However, after entering the spirit soul era, one's spiritual power would be restricted, and the advantage of twin martial souls would not be as great. No one's spiritual power would be able to support a spirit soul with eighteen soul rings. Unless one possessed a spiritual attribute martial soul like the first Spirit Pagoda's Pagoda Master, and each spirit soul was extremely powerful and could be bestowed with multiple soul rings.”
Tang Wulin looked at Xie Xie. They were both humans, so why was it so unfair? He had a useless martial soul, but the other party had twin martial souls. The difference was too great.
Wu Zhangkong suddenly asked Tang Wulin,"Do you think his martial soul is good?"
Tang Wulin looked at him.
Wu Zhangkong pursed his lips. His martial soul was a dagger, so his second martial soul should be the same. It was just that it was invisible. A dagger's attack range was short. What could it do in a modern mecha battle? Agility-type soul masters were the most restricted after becoming mecha masters. And the control-type soul master martial soul was the greatest help to mecha battles.”
Was Xie Xie staring at Wu Zhangkong with widened eyes? Could it be that Tang Wulin was his son? Why did you have to belittle me to give him confidence? This is too unfair!
Wu Zhangkong ignored him." Alright, let's get down to business."”
Xie Xie's spirits were lifted.
"Every new school year, the academy will have a competition, both in the intermediate and advanced divisions. There are a total of six grades in our intermediate division, and all of them will participate. The competition is called the Class Promotion Competition."
"Class Promotion Tournament?" Tang Lingluo and Tang Wulin were confused.
"The Class Promotion Tournament will start with the weakest class. They'll send students to challenge each other. Class Five will challenge Class Four, and so on." The winner of the challenge would be exchanged for the class name. In other words, if we defeat class four, then we will no longer be the bottom class of first grade class five, but first grade class four. The class ranked lower would confirm the number of challengers. After winning, they could continue to challenge the sixth grade until they lost the competition. The highest one could obtain the title of grade class one. If one continued to challenge the higher grade class and won, there would be a reward for every victory.”
"So you're saying that our class is the first to issue a challenge?"”There were six grades in total, and the first grade had five classes. Class five was ranked last, which meant that their class was at the bottom of the entire intermediate division.
"Yes!" Wu Zhangkong nodded." This is a battle of honor for the class. At the same time, if one could challenge someone of a higher level, the rewards would be very generous.”
"No problem, Teacher Wu. Leave it to me." Xie Xie said proudly. If I go all the way up, I might be able to directly challenge the sixth grade.”
Wu Zhangkong snorted disdainfully." The minimum number of participants is two. Moreover, do you really think that twin martial souls are invincible? Do you know what kind of people can be selected into class one? In this world, there was never a lack of geniuses, although there were many geniuses who died. However, in the intermediate division, your talent can only be considered average.”
Xie Xie didn't pay much attention to the rest of Wu Zhangkong's words. He only paid attention to Wu Zhangkong's first sentence. He turned his head to look at Tang Wulin in shock." Teacher, you're not saying that you want me to participate in the competition with the two of them, are you?”
Wu Zhangkong leaned back in his chair and suddenly appeared very generous." It's fine if you have a better choice.”
" I…" Xie Xie really wanted to say that he wasn't going with him. However, after thinking about it and recalling the students who had terrible abilities in the class competition just now, he really couldn't say anything.
No matter what, Tang Lingluo had defeated him twice before. Moreover, he had that mysterious power.
"The competition will be held in a month's time," Wu Zhangkong said."Therefore, from tomorrow onwards, I'll be conducting special training for the three of you every night. The task I have set for you is very simple. Change the name of our class to first grade class one.”
"What if we fail?" Tang Wulin asked subconsciously.”
"Haha!" Wu Zhangkong smiled. He was extremely handsome to begin with, but his smile immediately stunned Tang Lingluo, Tang Wulin, and Xie Xie. However, while they were in a daze, the three of them also felt a bone-chilling aura suddenly rise from their tailbones.
Tang Wulin's brows gradually relaxed as he walked out of Wu Zhangkong's office. A smile appeared on his face. Although it was because the other students were not good enough, at least he was chosen to represent the class in the competition. This was the glory of a soul master. Had he finally taken a step forward in the soul master's world? Besides Teacher Mang Tian, Teacher Wu also said that he had hope.
"Hey!" Xie Xie called out to Tang Lingluo coldly.
Tang Lingluo turned to look at him." What are you doing? I'll fight you again. I won't eat your first meal for free.”
Xie Xie was stunned for a moment. Didn't this guy love money? He actually…
"That's not what I wanted to say. I want to tell you not to drag me down in the competition in a month.”Xie Xie said proudly.
Tang Lingluo sighed." Does your face still hurt?”
