Douluo: Legend of the Dragon King - The Voice of the Purple Emperor

Chapter 80 Riot at the Ascension Platform

Holidays always seem to fly by for everyone who was a child. Recalling the experiences of the past few days, Gu You's eyes were somewhat dazed.

Strangely enough, Gu Yue was willing to go with them. Although Gu You had lived in the coastal city for a long time when he was a child, he had never actually traveled to the ocean because he was poor back then. However, he had spent a long time at sea with Xie Xie and the others and had a lot of fun. In particular, when they ate a seafood feast, Xie Xie was so moved that he cried.

"Remember what Xie Xie said about upgrading all our spirit rings to a thousand years? It seems the academy really intends to do that?" Zhang Yangzi swallowed hard. Having a great time, he recalled the time before the final exams and felt a surge of passion. He desperately wanted to become stronger. His personality was actually the kind that liked to show off in front of others. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so arrogant and didn't make the first move when he first encountered Tang Wulin and the others in the promotion competition.

Xie Xie laughed heartily, "That's very possible! If that's the case, then that's great!"

"The school has paved such a good path for us, have you thought about what you want to study as a second career?" Gu You suddenly asked.

"A second job?" Zhang Yangzi pondered. "I haven't decided yet."

"I'm not very bright and I only have a little strength, but I plan to learn forging like Tang Wulin." Wang Jinxi scratched his head.

Xie Xie said, "That makes sense. I've basically decided that my second career will be mecha manufacturing! Because it's relatively the least technically demanding but requires very skilled techniques, I think it suits me better. What about you guys?" He looked at Gu You curiously.

"Forging," Gu You said casually.

"Forging! I didn't expect you to have learned the same thing as Tang Wulin. No wonder you're so strong. With your talent, you must be very powerful. Could you help me forge metal in the future?" Xie Xie said somewhat aggressively as he approached Gu You. Wang Jinxi also glanced at Gu You.

"Of course." Gu You then looked at Gu Yue.

Gu Yue said, "I might study mecha repair."

"Huh? You want to study mecha repair? You're a girl! I thought you'd choose mecha design," Xie Xie said curiously.

Gu Yue said calmly, "Only a brainless person would think that way."

"you……"

The journey was filled with laughter and joy, except for Gu Yue, who remained silent beside Gu You.

By the time Gu You arrived at Donghai Academy, it was nearly evening. He returned to his dormitory to meditate and cultivate. His soul power had reached the peak of level 32, just one step away from breaking through to level 33. The limitations of the ultimate martial soul were too great, especially since he had discovered that the world in his mind was constantly draining his soul power during cultivation, causing his cultivation to slow down even further. However, it was still quite astonishing. A level 33 soul master at the age of ten was unprecedented and unlikely to be repeated.

An explosive aura erupted from Gu You's dormitory, marking Gu You's level 33!

At dawn, Donghai City was shrouded in a thick fog, obscuring the view and making everything appear blurry.

The usually quiet East Sea Spirit Pagoda is unusually lively today. As one of the eighteen pillars of the Spirit Pagoda organization, it is one of the entrances to the Spirit Ascension Platform during the riot.

A single entry card for the Spirit Ascension Platform during the Riot Period has already fetched hundreds of thousands of gold coins at auction, with no market available. Converted to Federal Currency, that's equivalent to a billion! This shows that Donghai Academy spent a considerable amount of money and connections to obtain six entry cards for the Spirit Ascension Platform during the Riot Period. Every year, these cards from the Spirit Tower Organization are highly sought after. Although very few people can actually complete their Spirit Ascension there, there is still a chance.

Early in the morning, Wu Changkong led his Class Zero students to the East Sea Spirit Pagoda. The sooner they entered, the fewer opportunities they would have to encounter opponents.

"Remember, the Spirit Ascension Platform during the riot period has the largest number of people entering at the same time. Inside, everyone except you is an enemy. You only have one thing to do, and that is to survive. Those who fail the final exam will be punished." Wu Changkong instructed, then turned his gaze to Gu You, "Your strength is special and you don't belong to their team. After you go in, you can decide whether to fight or not. It's all up to you." Gu You's strength is terrifying. Just take the 100,000-year soul ring as an example. In the initial stage of the riot period, Gu You already has no natural enemies in the Spirit Ascension Platform.

Listening to Wu Changkong's words, Xie Xie asked curiously, "Teacher Wu, what is the punishment?"

Wu Changkong glanced at him and said, "Cancel the vacation." There is a one-month vacation after each semester ends. Hearing the words "cancel the vacation," Xie Xie's eyes widened immediately. He had been looking forward to the vacation for a long time.

The others exchanged bewildered glances. Only Tang Wulin remained composed. Even Gu Yue frowned upon hearing the punishment, while Gu You was furious. "Cancel your vacation? You're going to go all out this time!"

"Let's go."

Six entry cards were handed over, and led by the staff, they arrived at a familiar room. This was the capability of Donghai Academy. As the only intermediate soul master academy in Donghai City, Donghai Academy had a great influence and a good relationship with the Spirit Pagoda. This was why Donghai Academy was able to obtain six cards.

The fact that the East Sea Spirit Pagoda specially set up access rooms for them and allowed teachers to monitor them from there was not normal, but rather a special privilege given to them.

"The interior of the Ascension Platform is extremely dangerous during the riots. You've all been inside many times and are basically used to the situation, so I won't go into more detail. If you feel unwell, leave the battlefield immediately," the staff member briefly advised.

The more times you enter the Ascension Platform, the less likely you are to encounter the same danger as Wang Jinxi the first time.

Six people lay down in metal cabinets. Under the control of the staff, the metal cabinets closed, the light gradually disappeared, the instrument scanning began, and they were ready to enter.

Staff inserted five cards into designated slots and then pressed a red button. This was a riot control device; only those with these cards could enter, and the entry point was controlled.

Their consciousness was briefly hazy. When they regained consciousness, they were surrounded by a vast forest. The biggest difference from before was that this time, the six of them appeared together on the Ascension Platform.

The air was fresh, the vegetation was green, everything was familiar, and it didn't seem much different from when I usually entered.

Tang Wulin said in a deep voice, "Formation!"

He stepped forward and stood at the front of the group. Wang Jinxi stayed behind, with his back to Tang Wulin. Zhang Yangzi and Xie Xie were on the left and right, respectively. All four of them were facing outwards. Gu Yue was in the center. This was what they had rehearsed last night. Tang Wulin had also carefully prepared steel vests for them, which doubled their defense. As for Gu You, he was standing on the top of a tree, looking up into the distance.

A soft blue light flashed, covering all five people at the same time. It was Gu Yue's control over the wind element. Although it was not strong, it was enough to reduce everyone's weight and make everyone more agile.

Tang Wulin raised his right hand, and two strands of blue silver grass emerged. A yellow soul ring rose from his feet, and the two blue silver grasses, which resembled spirit snakes, extended forward and then swept to both sides, parting the bushes and revealing a path.
