Douluo Dragon King: Embarking on the Path to Godhood from the Start

"Teacher Wu, a top student from the senior class, is indeed different. Even her queuing is taught so well."

"However, I don't have your abilities. Those kids in Class 4 are a complete mess. Please be lenient in today's promotion match! We don't expect to make it into Class 3, but we'll need your help to preserve Class 4's reputation!"

Kong Hanwen, the homeroom teacher of Class 4, Grade 1, a short and stout middle-aged man, walked towards Wu Changkong, his voice dripping with sarcasm.

Hearing his words, Wu Changkong didn't even glance at him, staring straight ahead and completely ignoring him. Kong Hanwen was left feeling awkward and his nose was practically crooked with anger.

"Heh, Ms. Wu seems quite confident, huh? Let's see who's the best then." Kong Hanwen sneered and strolled back to Class 4's group.

Five minutes later, Dean of Students Long Hengxu arrived just as the bell rang and announced on stage: "The promotion competition is now beginning—Class 5 of Grade 1 is challenging Class 4. Participants, take your positions."

"Yes, Yu Chen, Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, step forward."

Nodding slightly, Wu Changkong gave the order in a calm tone. He then added:

"Don't hold back, crush them."

"yes!"

The group answered in unison, secretly thinking to themselves, "Teacher Wu is really petty."

As teachers, students are their face. Teacher Wu is trying to trample the face of the homeroom teacher of Class 4, Grade 1 underfoot.

However, Yu Chen and the others were quite happy to agree, because what Kong Hanwen had just said was really infuriating.

At the same time, Tang Wulin glanced at the group with a hint of eagerness in his eyes.

Previously, the group had already discussed the participants. In order to take care of Tang Wulin, he would participate in the first few matches. In the final battle, Wu Changkong would send out the strongest trio of Yu Chen, Gu Yue, and Xie Xie.

"Oh, Tang Wulin? Wu Changkong, you truly live up to your reputation of being unpredictable!"

Long Hengxu glanced at Tang Wulin.

He naturally remembered that Tang Wulin's soul power didn't seem to be high, and his martial soul seemed to be... Blue Silver Grass.

Sending out a Soul Master with the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul is truly something Wu Changkong would do.

Soon, the participants from Class 4 were also ready.

"Alright, both teams' participants, please enter the arena."

Seeing that both sides had chosen their candidates, Long Hengxu waved his hand and said.

Following Long Hengxu's words, six students from both sides took to the stage. The three students from Class Four were named Galon, Lin Zunyuan, and Moss, one a strong attacker, one a fast attacker, and one a support.

On the arena, the two teams each occupied one side. Yu Chen and his two companions stood in a triangular formation. Although their opponents were weak, they still used all their strength, like a lion hunting a rabbit. Moreover, Wu Changkong had given the order to crush them.

Looking at the students of Class 5, Grade 1, the three students of Class 4, Grade 1, all had an eager look in their eyes. Clearly, in their hearts, this was their only victory in the promotion competition, and their only moment of glory.

"In the promotion competition, harmony is paramount. We must stop short of serious injury to other trainees. Now, prepare, three, two, one, begin!"

At this moment, Long Hengxu loudly announced the start of the competition.

With Long Hengxu's command, the promotion match officially began, and immediately, students from both sides released their martial spirits and spirit rings.

Tang Wulin excitedly took out his Heavy Silver Hammer and looked at the three people opposite him as if he had started a game of whack-a-mole.

The students of Class Four activated their martial spirits and charged directly at Yu Chen and his two companions, aiming to win the match with overwhelming force.

In their minds, the students of Class 5 were all weak and incompetent, and this had been the case for several years.

Ha, they were all terrified, haha.

Looking at Yu Chen and the other two, Galon, the leader of Class 4, laughed heartily and immediately opened a bottle of champagne at halftime.

Just then, Yu Chen moved. He didn't activate Time Zero, but his speed was as fast as a ghost. The leader of Class Four only felt a blur before his eyes, and then he lost consciousness.

Just as Yu Chen finished off his opponent, Tang Wulin approached one of them, while Xie Xie charged toward another.

Although Tang Wulin's strength was only level fourteen and not very powerful, Lin Zunyuan's soul power was only level fifteen in front of him.

In an instant, Tang Wulin released his martial soul "Blue Silver Grass". Immediately afterward, a white soul ring flashed behind him, activating "Entanglement".

The next moment, streaks of Blue Silver Grass attacked Lin Zunyuan. He didn't take it seriously at first. Crickets were just Blue Silver Grass, and even if he was a support Soul Master, he could easily break free. Moreover, his Soul Power was level 15, while Tang Wulin's was level 14. In comparison, the advantage was in his hands.

When Tang Wulin's Blue Silver Grass entangled Lin Zunyuan, he was completely dumbfounded. He felt that the Blue Silver Grass was as hard as diamond, and no matter how much force he used, he could not break it.

Next, Tang Wulin, wielding a hammer in one hand, knocked Lin Zunyuan off the stage.

On the other side, Xie Xie, although he had not yet become a Great Soul Master, showed an overwhelming advantage when facing Moss, who was only level 15.

Several figures flashed, and the cold tip of the Light Dragon Dagger was placed against Moss's neck, scaring Moss so much that his legs went weak and he immediately surrendered.

Instant sell-out! Everything was sold out in seconds!

Yes, Yu Chen, Xie Xie, and Tang Wulin all defeated their opponents with just one move, which is simply unbelievable.

The fact that the students in Class 5 have such strength makes one wonder if the Dean of Students, Long Hengxu, made some kind of shady deal with Wu Changkong, deliberately placing several outstanding talents in Class 5 to set up other classes!

Watching this clean and decisive, overwhelming match, the students of Class 3, Grade 1 lost their sparkle and completely lost their confidence in victory.

Is this really Class 5 of Grade 1? Even Class 1 of Grade 1 in previous years wasn't this bad! It must be that old bastard Long Hengxu's scheme. For a moment, some resentful gazes fell on Long Hengxu.

"The winner is Class 5 of Grade 1. Tomorrow you will continue to challenge Class 3 of Grade 1."

After the battle ended, Long Hengxu stepped onto the battle platform again and announced his arrival. However, he felt a chill down his spine, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He then glanced at Wu Changkong with approval.

"Yes! We won!"

Immediately, the students of Class 5 erupted in cheers, welcoming the return of Yu Chen and his two fellow contestants.

Beside her, Gu Yue stood quietly at the edge of the crowd, wearing a long, moon-white gauze shirt with the collar slightly open and the cuffs casually rolled up, exuding a sense of nonchalance and aloofness.

She paired it with black slim-fit trousers that accentuated her slender figure, and simple black ankle boots.

Her original innocent charm was diluted by this cool-toned outfit, replaced by a cold and indifferent aura that kept people at a distance. She brushed a strand of hair behind her ear, her dark eyes not showing much of a smile, but only when she looked at Yu Chen did a bright smile appear.

Looking at Gu Yue's figure, Yu Chen paused for a moment, nodded slightly, smiled back, and then came to her side.

"Well done, Chen."

"They're too weak; they didn't even warm up. For us, only students in fourth year or higher would pose a challenge!"

Yu Chen's blunt answer made the students from Class 4 who were passing by want to vomit blood, but they had no reason to refute it.
