Douluo: When Tang Wulin Met Little Huo Niang

Chapter 71 Upgrade Exam
Tang Wulin was sitting in the classroom and could clearly feel the students around him whispering about something and pointing at the empty seat next to him.

He also knew what they were talking about. The seat next to him had belonged to Huo Yutong for the past year. Now that Huo Yutong was not there, the seat was naturally empty, and it stood out extremely.

Soon, Wang Yan walked into the classroom, and the students suddenly became quiet, and the voices of discussion disappeared.

Wang Yan looked around the classroom, his eyes lingering on the empty seat next to Tang Wulin for a moment, then he smiled and said:

"I'm glad to see that all the students have returned to the academy on time. The academy is also stepping up its investigation into Huo Yutong's case. Students, please be patient. We will inform you of the results soon. Let's talk about the upgrade assessment first."

As he spoke, he walked up to the podium and began to write on the blackboard.

The expressions of the students in the class suddenly became very nervous.

Although Huo Yutong's matter is curious, it is ultimately just someone else's business. However, the upgrade assessment is closely related to everyone present. If you don't perform well, you will be expelled from the academy.

To get to where they are today, the students in Class 1 have put in a lot of effort. No one wants to be expelled from Shrek Academy before they can even enter the second grade.

Wang Yan said:

"The method of this upgrade assessment has been decided. First, there will be an individual exam. Our academy will use the method of fighting soul beasts for the assessment. Students will need to go to the Colosseum to fight soul beasts. Each student can choose the age of a soul beast at will and then fight with it. We will have a special teacher to score according to your performance. The full score is 150. Those with less than 30 points will be eliminated."

"As for the class exam, since our class has the strongest overall combat power, our test difficulty is naturally the highest. Our test method this time is to select three students to jointly fight against three thousand-year-old soul beasts. There will be a special teacher to grade them. Oh, by the way, the monitor of our class's strong attack department is not allowed to participate in this class assessment."

When they heard Wang Yan's last sentence, all the students in the class immediately focused their attention on Tang Wulin.

Tang Wulin himself also had a strange look on his face, not knowing what to say.

Obviously, since he was too strong, participating in the assessment would definitely affect the balance, so the academy simply banned him.

What he didn't know was that the person who made this decision was Gong Changlong, who had gone to the Star Dou Great Forest with him some time ago.

He saw with his own eyes that Tang Wulin easily defeated a 7,000-year-old soul beast. Even though that soul beast was of the plant type and its combat power was slightly weaker than that of the animal type of the same level, this performance had already exceeded the scope of a first-year student, or even a student from an external college.

The soul beasts in the Colosseum could not possibly pose any threat to this kid. Compared to Tang Wulin's safety, Gong Changlong was more worried that this kid might kill his precious soul beast without any restraint. By then, given Tang Wulin's status as Moon's disciple, Gong Changlong would not be able to ask him for compensation.

Wang Yan looked at the shocked expressions of his classmates and smiled:
"We will begin the individual upgrade assessment for students this afternoon. As for the class assessment, it will be held in three days. At that time, I will specially select three students besides Tang Wulin to go to the Colosseum for the assessment. Students with higher cultivation levels in the class please be ready at any time."

Hearing what he said, Wang Dong and Zhou Sichen both looked bitter.

These two are the ones with the highest levels in the class. Originally, after hearing the first half of the test, they felt that they had a easy time passing it. However, they did not expect that the academy would directly ban Tang Wulin. Now all the pressure fell on the two of them.

Seeing that the atmosphere among the students was somewhat tense, Wang Yan quickly comforted them:
"Don't worry, I will tell you what you need to pay attention to in the exam. Based on my understanding of your abilities, as long as you listen carefully to what I say and perform well, it won't be difficult to pass the exam."

Then he picked up the chalk and began to write the things to pay attention to in this exam on the blackboard.

Tang Wulin looked ahead indifferently. What Wang Yan said went in through his left ear and out through his right ear, without staying in his mind for much longer.

Cramming at the last minute is the way of the weak. With his strength, the personal assessment is not difficult at all for him, so he naturally doesn't need to listen to Wang Yan's little tricks. Rather than how to pass the exam more easily, he still wants to know where Huo Yutong went.

Time often passes fastest when people are daydreaming. In the blink of an eye, the class was over and it was already afternoon.

Teachers from each class gathered with their students in the Colosseum to prepare for the next assessment.

Wang Yan said to Tang Wulin:

"Wulin, in the upcoming exam, each class will send out its class monitor first. Naturally, you will be the first one to go to the front. You must be careful. I know you are in a bad mood now, but don't go too hard and kill the soul beast."

That’s right, unlike other teachers who reminded students to pay attention to safety, Wang Yan paid more attention to the safety of the soul beast than Tang Wulin’s safety.

There was really no need to worry about Tang Wulin's safety. If this kid used all his strength, the battle would most likely be over in an instant.

Every thousand-year-old soul beast in the academy was captured with great difficulty, and the death of one is a huge loss. Wang Yan does not want to be held accountable by Gong Changlong, the current dean of the Martial Soul Department, afterwards.

Tang Wulin nodded slightly to indicate that he had heard it.

It was already afternoon, and Huo Yutong still had no news. He was in a very bad mood.

Wang Yan wanted to say something, but unfortunately the stage was already urging Team One to send someone up on stage. Wang Yan had no choice but to pat Tang Wulin on the shoulder and let him go onto the field.

Seeing Tang Wulin coming on stage, the referee asked:
"What level of soul beast are you going to challenge?"

Tang Wulin replied calmly:
"millennium."

He answered without hesitation, which made the referee look at him twice in surprise.

The referee didn't know Tang Wulin's identity. He only knew that those who came were second-year students. Judging from the general cultivation level of second-year students in previous years, fighting against a thousand-year soul beast would not be an easy task.

However, considering Tang Wulin's status as the monitor of Class 1, he did not stop him and just said:

"Okay, be a little more careful later."

The worst that can happen is that he just needs to pay more attention and protect the child's safety. It's no big deal.

The referee didn't know at this time that what he needed to protect more than Tang Wulin was the safety of the soul beast.
