Legend of the Dragon King: I really didn't mean to provoke them!

While Tang Wulin and Wu Changkong were talking, Xie Xie quickly got up and swiftly stuffed all the empty plates into the drawer.

"...Come in and talk."

Wu Changkong glanced at Tang Wulin and stepped aside to clear the doorway.

Tang Wulin nodded, stepped into the dormitory, his eyes subconsciously scanning the room, the faint aroma of food still lingering in the air.

Turning her head again, she caught a glimpse of Xie Xie hurriedly sitting back in his chair, looking guilty.

Seeing the food crumbs still on his lips, Tang Wulin immediately understood, and a smile involuntarily appeared in his eyes, but he did not point it out.

"What went wrong?" Wu Changkong asked directly.

Tang Wulin withdrew his gaze and began to recount the abnormality of his Blue Silver Grass martial soul, the inexplicable appearance of the golden scales during his first duel with Xie Xie, and his own speculations and judgments.

"Golden Scales?" Wu Changkong frowned.

Xie Xie, who was listening nearby, found it rather strange.

They clearly didn't encounter the Light Dragon incident this time, and their Light Dragon Dagger didn't further stimulate the Golden Dragon King's bloodline.

He had thought that this would delay Tang Wulin's awakening of the Golden Dragon King bloodline.

But as it turns out, some things don't deviate from their original trajectory just because they deliberately avoid them.

The Golden Dragon King bloodline within Tang Wulin's body continues to awaken and stir uncontrollably, and his Blue Silver Grass martial soul is also showing abnormalities. Everything is developing towards the inevitable outcome.

Xie Xie seemed to understand the meaning of the Dragon of Time and Space's words—

Even something as powerful as it cannot change the predetermined past and future.

"Xie Xie, try stabbing him. See if that happens again," Wu Changkong said, turning to Xie Xie.

"Row!"

Xie Xie quickly tapped Tang Wulin's outstretched left thumb lightly.

Tang Wulin felt as if his fingertips had been bitten by ants, and the burning sensation he had experienced before returned.

It was still as if he had been set ablaze; the heat surged from his tailbone and spread throughout his entire body. Golden scales slowly emerged from his arms.

As Wu Changkong raised his hand, a sharp gust of air swept past, and Tang Wulin's sleeve instantly turned into fragments and fell away, revealing his entire arm.

Under the watchful eyes of Wu Changkong and Xie Xie, Tang Wulin's left hand gradually transformed into a golden dragon claw.

After frowning and pondering for a moment, Wu Changkong extended his hand.

Try pulling my hand harder.

Tang Wulin immediately gripped Wu Changkong's outstretched hand tightly, and then the veins on his arm bulged as he suddenly exerted force and pulled backward.

Wu Changkong remained motionless, simply closing his eyes and quietly sensing the scene.

A dozen seconds later, she murmured, "Hmm... my strength has increased at least three times."

"Alright, you don't need to exert any more force."

However, Tang Wulin continued to pull back with all his might, shouting, "No! Teacher Wu, I won't give up!!"

Wu Changkong: "..."

boom--!

Wu Changkong punched Tang Wulin directly on the forehead.

Tang Wulin, who had been knocked to the ground, had a large bump bulging on his head at a visible speed.

"Just let go when I tell you to."

Wu Changkong withdrew his hand indifferently.

Seeing Tang Wulin gradually recover, Wu Changkong crossed his arms and said, "It doesn't resemble twin martial souls, nor does it seem like martial soul evolution, and martial soul fusion won't work either, because Xie Xie hasn't changed. So..."

"so?"

Tang Wulin quickly got up and asked with expectant eyes.

Wu Changkong opened his eyes and said seriously, "I don't know."

Tang Wulin: "..."

Xie Xie: "Pfft..."

Although Wu Changkong didn't know what was going on, she was able to assure Tang Wulin that this change was not a bad thing, but rather concealed extremely strong power.

After dealing with Tang Wulin's matter, she glanced at the drawer where the empty plate was still hidden, and then looked at Xie Xie, whose mouth still had crumbs on it.

Wu Changkong said calmly, "Xie Xie, you'll come with me to the training ground for extra practice later."

Xie Xie's face fell instantly, and he wailed, "Huh? Teacher Wu, what kind of nonsense is this?!"

Wu Changkong remained unmoved and turned to Tang Wulin, saying, "You come along too, it'll be a good opportunity to test your current physical limits."

Tang Wulin paused for a moment, then nodded emphatically.

For the next fifteen minutes, Xie Xie was whipped around like a top by Wu Changkong until he was completely exhausted, and only then was he half-dead and pulled back by Tang Wulin.

Just like yesterday, the promotion match took place on the playground of the intermediate section after school in the afternoon.

Although there were still few spectators watching the match between Class 5 and Class 3, after yesterday's performance, many teachers have started to pay attention to Class 5 of the first grade, which is led by Wu Changkong.

Ye Yingrong, the homeroom teacher of Class 3, Grade 1, arrived early, and the students of Class 3 were lined up in a very neat row.

Standing at the front of the class line were three boys who looked exactly alike.

The only difference is the tuft of hair sticking up in the middle of their heads.

Every time Xie Xie looked at these three people, he would have the illusion that he was seeing Di Renjie.

Ye Yingrong walked over with a smile on her face.

"Hello, Teacher Wu." She nodded gently to Wu Changkong.

Ye Yingrong is a pretty young woman with delicate features. Her bodycon dress accentuates her slender figure, and her long, wavy hair sways gracefully as she walks, exuding a natural charm.

Even so, she was still completely crushed in front of Wu Changkong.

Just because Wu Changkong was standing there quietly, he exuded a white moonlight-like aura that made it impossible for people to look away.

"I am Ye Yingrong, the homeroom teacher of Class 3," Ye Yingrong said, suppressing her excitement.

Not only her, but almost all the female teachers and students in the entire academy are loyal fans of Wu Changkong.

"Hello." Wu Changkong simply nodded, his tone calm and even.

Ye Yingrong's gaze remained fixed on Wu Changkong, her cheeks slightly flushed, and her tone unconsciously softened. "Teacher Wu is truly young and promising. It's admirable that she can lead Class 5 so well."

Wu Changkong merely glanced at Ye Yingrong indifferently, offering no further response.

Her aloof gaze fell directly on the triplets behind Ye Yingrong, as if in her eyes, the triplets were more charming than Ye Yingrong.

Chapter 27: Battle Against Class 3, Taking it All in~

Dean of Students Long Hengxu has arrived on the competition stage.

"The second match of the promotion tournament is between Class 5 of Grade 1 and Class 3 of Grade 1! Are you still sending three players to the match?"

Wu Changkong nodded, and Xie Xie and the other two walked towards the center of the field.

Ye Yingrong didn't care about Wu Changkong's indifference at all, and instead smiled slightly at the triplets behind her, "Okay, you guys go too."

The three Gu brothers, who look exactly alike, also went up to the competition stage.

Class 5 was in a triangular formation led by Tang Wulin, while the three Gu brothers stood side by side in a row.

"Is everything ready?"

As usual, Long Hengxu asked a question.

After receiving affirmative answers from both sides, he waved his hand and announced the start of the second match of the promotion tournament.

As soon as Long Hengxu finished speaking, the three Gu brothers leaped into the air at the same time, their three pairs of wings unfolding in mid-air as they continued to climb upwards.

"It can fly..."

Xie Xie rubbed his chin.

Just as he was about to throw the Shadow Dragon Dagger and teleport up, his collar was suddenly grabbed from behind.

Xie Xie suddenly felt as if fate had grabbed him by the scruff of his neck, and blinked.

"……Why?"

The next second, Tang Wulin threw him directly into the air.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!!"

In a dizzying moment, Xie Xie was thrown straight into the air, and the instant the momentum dissipated, his body fell uncontrollably downwards.

Gu Yue was also stunned by Tang Wulin's actions. After she came to her senses, a blue light flashed in her hand.

An ice spike shot out, hovering directly below Xie Xie, gleaming with a chilling light, and steadily supported his falling body.

Xie Xie reacted extremely quickly, lightly touching the smooth ice cone surface with his toes, using the momentum to leap into the air.

"Tang Wulin! You just wait!"

Xie Xie shouted at the ground, and then his figure suddenly accelerated like a ghost.

The Shadow Dragon Dagger drew a cold arc in his hand, rushing straight towards the three Gu brothers in mid-air, so fast that it left only a blur.

Gu Yue withdrew the soul power in her hand and looked coldly at the sky.

The three Gu brothers had just separated in mid-air.

A sharp glint flashed in Xie Xie's eyes. With a flick of his wrist, the Shadow Dragon Dagger shot straight toward Gu Tianming.

The Shadow Dragon Dagger shot away with a sharp whistling sound, and Gu Tianming hurriedly flapped his wings to dodge.

Just when Gu Tianri and Gu Tianyue thought Xie Xie was about to attack Gu Tianming, Xie Xie's speed suddenly increased dramatically. Driven by his soul power, he left a golden flash in the air and instantly appeared behind Gu Tianri.

Before Gu Tianri could react, two golden blades precisely struck his wings.

Gu Tianri froze, then plummeted from mid-air, eliminated on the spot.

After dealing with Gu Tianri, Xie Xie didn't pause at all. The black mist around him surged slightly, and the next moment he flashed directly to the side of the Shadow Dragon Dagger that had been shot out.

He gripped the dagger hilt with his backhand and used the momentum of his charge to directly approach Gu Tianming.

Xie Xie's speed was so fast that Gu Tianming had no chance to resist.

Fortunately, at the crucial moment, Xie Xie twirled the Shadow Dragon Dagger in his hand, using the hilt instead of the blade, and aimed the blow at Gu Tianming's spine.

Gu Tianming's face turned pale, his wings went limp, and he fell heavily off the competition platform.

In the blink of an eye, only Gu Tianyue remained of the three Gu brothers.

Gu Tianyue was both shocked and frightened, and desperately flapped her wings to try to escape, but Xie Xie had already caught up with her like a shadow.

Xie Xie didn't draw his knife; instead, he reached out with his right hand and grabbed Xie Xie's ankle.

He forcefully grabbed Gu Tianyue, who was trying to fly away, swung him around in the air, and slammed him hard into the ground.

The entire set of movements was fluid, crisp, and clean.

After defeating his opponent, Xie Xie performed a light spin in the air.

He gently released his soul power and slammed one hand onto the ground.

"Boom-"

With a soft thud, Xie Xie landed steadily with one hand supporting him on the ground and one knee on the ground. His short brown hair was slightly blown by the wind. He casually twirled the Shadow Dragon Dagger in his hand and put it away at his side.

In just a few breaths, Xie Xie had dealt with all three Gu brothers.

The entire venue fell silent instantly.

Long Hengxu was stunned for a moment before loudly announcing, "Class 5 of Grade 1 wins!"

"Thank you, Xie!"

Tang Wulin was about to happily go up and give them a high five to celebrate.
