Chapter 21 Untitled
Hongshan Academy has a special Martial Soul Class for students who have awakened their Soul Power. Among the sixty-odd students in this Martial Soul Class, ten have already reached level ten in Soul Power, which allows them to advance from the lowest level of Soul Master, Soul Warrior, to Soul Master.
After three years, they are about to complete their studies at the primary academy. When they reach the intermediate academy, soul masters will be specially separated and study in a special academy. Small cities like Aolai City do not have intermediate soul master academies, while intermediate soul master academies in medium-sized cities require that one must have a soul spirit in order to enroll.
Reaching Level 10 before graduating from junior college will earn you a college recommendation letter, making it much easier to enter intermediate college. This is because it proves you have good talent. If you reach Level 10 after the age of ten, you will need to take more tests to enter intermediate college.
Tang Wulin walked out of Hongshan Academy happily. This was his last day of school here. He had gained the favor of the Spirit Pagoda and obtained his own soul. He was now separated from his classmates by a sad, thick barrier.
It's not that he's changed; he doesn't want his relationship with his classmates to deteriorate. But people are just naturally drawn to those who are strong.
Tang Wulin was initially saddened, but the joy of receiving the recommendation letter to Donghai Academy quickly overwhelmed him.
According to Chen Yuan's account, he knew that he could obtain more resources by going to the Spirit Pagoda in Donghai City. If he performed well, he might even be able to obtain a thousand-year-old soul!
And a thousand-year-old spirit can generally provide three spirit rings!
In that case, he could cultivate all the way to the fifth ring!
Of course, this is the best-case scenario.
"Hey, Wu Lin!"
A sudden call reached his ears, which dampened Tang Wulin's good mood. He looked up and saw that the person was indeed an old acquaintance, Wan Yunchao.
The chubby classmate he met on his first day of school made him feel down again at the thought that he might never see him again.
Wan Yunchao was one of the ten students whose soul power reached level ten. His innate soul power was two levels higher than Tang Wulin's. His martial soul was a short sword. With his talent, he should have broken through to level ten earlier than Tang Wulin.
But Tang Wulin put in twice the effort, and with the patient guidance of a Soul Master, he was no ordinary person. So he broke through a few days faster than Wan Yunchao?
"Yun Chao, what's wrong?"
"I heard you also obtained a soul spirit? Come on, we're about to head to the advanced academy, how about we have a competition now?"
"Oh? No thanks."
Upon hearing that Wan Yunchao wanted to have a breakup fight with him, Tang Wulin hesitated. He was afraid of hurting the little fat boy's pride, as he was far more powerful with his top-tier hundred-year-old soul spirit.
Wan Yunchao curled his lip, "Coward, you're just afraid of losing to me."
He was trying to provoke Tang Wulin, who knew this but was still a little angry. "Fine, then I'll fight you. Let's go to the grove."
Behind Hongshan College is a large grove of trees, where students usually have their nature classes.
This place is usually very quiet after school, and few people come here. Upon hearing this, Wan Yunchao excitedly dragged Tang Wulin to the grove.
As soon as he arrived at the grove, Wan Yunchao couldn't wait to unleash his martial spirit.
With a flash of light, his short sword appeared in his hand. Compared to when he didn't have a spirit ring, the short sword looked wider and had more patterns on it, with a faint glow emanating from it.
A white ten-year spirit ring rose from beneath his feet. Wan Yunchao silently activated the spirit ring, and instantly, half a foot of blade light shot out from the short sword.
"See that? My first soul skill is Blade Aura. I spent an extra 10,000 Federal Coins to have the Spirit Master choose a soul spirit for me. The soul spirit is also a blade, directly attached to my martial soul. My Blade Aura is indestructible!"
Tang Wulin frowned slightly. "Why are you talking so much nonsense?"
Wan Yunchao glared at him. "You still dare to talk nonsense at a time like this? I'm afraid of hurting you. Hurry up and admit defeat. I'll let you go. Otherwise, my blade doesn't have eyes." As he spoke, he swung his hand back, and a small tree the size of a bowl was instantly cut in half by the blade.
Tang Wulin was speechless. "Didn't you want to fight me? If I admit defeat, wouldn't we have made a point of coming all this way for nothing?"
"Pah! Are you saying I'm stupid? I was just being polite, just being polite, just saying what people say!" Wan Yunchao was about to speak when he saw a yellow halo rise up beneath Tang Wulin's feet, and strands of Blue Silver Grass swarmed out from his palm.
Wan Yunchao was stunned on the spot.
Yellow? Is it a hundred-year-old spirit ring?
At this moment, he felt extremely ashamed that he had actually made Tang Wulin, who possessed a hundred-year-old soul ring, admit defeat to him.
Sigh, is it possible to reconcile?
Wan Yunchao was about to speak
The Blue Silver Grass in Tang Wulin's palm rose into the air, and then a piercing whistling sound rang out in the grove.
When the two emerged from the grove, Wan Yunchao was covered in bruises and welts, with whip marks all over his body.
"You actually have a hundred-year-old soul spirit, Wu Lin, you're absolutely monstrous. I'm only at the fifth level of the Innate Realm! How come I feel inferior to you in every way?"
Wan Yunchao rubbed his face and said resentfully.
Tang Wulin was born with superhuman strength. For the past three years, he had fought with Wan Yunchao and Wan Yunchao had lost every time. He finally became a Soul Master, but you have a hundred-year-old Soul Spirit. Damn it, is it so hard for me to win even once?
Of course, he absolutely did not blame Tang Wulin.
In the world of Soul Masters, strength is paramount. Tang Wulin is stronger than him and has a hundred-year-old Soul Spirit, so Tang Wulin is right no matter what.
"You have the nerve to say that? You only reached level ten with innate level five soul power a few days before me. You're being far too complacent!"
Tang Wulin rolled his eyes. A level five innate soul power—if it weren't for Chen Yuan's speculation about his special bloodline, and the fact that he gained a hundred-year-old plant soul spirit after joining the Spirit Pagoda, his future achievements would probably be inferior to Wan Yunchao's.
The premise is that Wan Yunchao works hard enough.
"Do you think everyone is like you?" Wan Yunchao scoffed. At their age, it's hardest to settle down. Who would devote themselves entirely to cultivation? After all, they weren't from a large family or powerful organization, so how could they understand the importance of early-stage cultivation?
"By the way, Wu Lin, how did you obtain a hundred-year-old soul spirit?"
He pressed for details out of curiosity, not believing that Tang Wulin's family was that rich, nor that it was pure luck.
"Ahem, well..."
…………
After parting ways with Wan Yunchao, Tang Wulin went to the Aolai branch tower to obtain the credentials that would recommend him to the East Sea branch. He then successfully completed the Thousand Refinements at the Mangtian Studio.
All of this seemed to be telling him that a bright future was about to begin.
"Wu Lin, Wu Lin..."
night.
The excited Tang Wulin had already fallen asleep.
He was still holding his Spirit Transmission Tower disciple certificate in his hand.
From the depths of the darkness, a soft female voice sounded, as if she wanted to say something to Tang Wulin.
This caused Tang Wulin to furrow his brow slightly, but he quickly relaxed and drifted off to sleep.
"Hmm? What was that just now... divine sense?"
Deep within Tang Wulin's body, sealed away, Tang San's divine sense scanned the surroundings blankly. In the still of the night, there was nothing unusual.
"It seems that some of the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline has been activated in Wu Lin's body. Although it's not much, it's quite helpful to him. Is it his mother? Sigh. For Wu Lin's sake, she must have exhausted all her strength to spare this divine thought."
In this era, there should be no one who has reached the Divine Origin Realm, and the only ones who would make a special trip here to observe Tang Wulin with their divine sense are his parents.
At most, there are still the Great Ming and the Second Ming.
However, he did not explain the plan in detail to the two beasts.
Since she's a mother, how could she possibly harm her own grandson?
I'll take this opportunity to guide Wu Lin.
Therefore, Tang San used a portion of his power to infuse this divine thought into Tang Wulin, and then Tang San fell asleep again with peace of mind.
After all, my mother is the core of my life. With her around, it's best for my divine consciousness to accumulate strength.
In his dream, Tang Wulin entered a strange state, as if he were inside the body of someone from a certain era, watching the stories in the storybooks come to life.
