. 。Tang Wulin closed his eyes to meditate. 。Not long after, Li Zhilong came back. 。"Do you need to adjust your state" he asked as soon as he walked in. 。Tang Wulin stood up and said, “Senior brother,...The eerie boy laughed, "Alright! Let's see what you can do to turn us into Class Two." As he said this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and immediately his body shot up several inches, seeming to become incredibly flexible. Two rings of yellow light rose around his feet. Furthermore, some blue scales sprouted on his neck, and his eyes changed into vertical pupils.

"Two rings A Soul Master" Tang Wulin and his companions were all taken aback. If the other party was a student from Class One, Grade One, they should be the same age as them, only nine years old! At the age of nine, to already be a Soul Master was absolutely unheard of.

Tang Wulin took a step forward, standing between Gu Yue and Xie Xie. Despite the powerful aura emanating from the opponent, he remained unfazed.

A white spirit ring ignited from beneath his feet, and the Blue Silver Grass in his palm was already surging with a blue aura.

“Haha, just a piece of trash with only a ten-year soul ring, dare to be arrogant It's really hilarious. Rest assured, I won't deal with you now. When we get on the competition stage, I will let you know the difference between talent and garbage. Remember my name, Class One, Year One, Wei Feng!”

Having finished his sentence, Wei Feng suddenly retracted his soul power, restoring himself to normal. He then turned and walked away proudly.

"Damn it!" Xie Xie was about to charge forward, but he was pulled back by Tang Wulin's Blue Silver Grass wrapped around his waist.

"Don't fall for it." Tang Wulin said in a low voice, "He wants to provoke us into making the first move, that way we'll be punished by the academy, and then when we get on stage..."

Xie Xie's eyes flashed with cold light, "Are the Two Rings very impressive Humph! Wait and see."

Tang Wulin said, “I’m going to the studio first. Teacher Wu won’t help us analyze our opponents; she always lets us adapt ourselves. You guys try to investigate Class One’s situation first. I’ll be back this evening and we can discuss it then.”

Although Xie Xian was very unwilling, Wei Feng's display of two-ring strength still put pressure on the three of them. Facing such an opponent, how could they possibly be sure of victory

Nine years old with two soul rings, this is definitely a prodigy! You have to know that under normal circumstances, even in other grades, it's at least the third grade before you see a soul master with two soul rings.

Xie Xie asked himself if he was born different, but the distance between him and the two rings was still quite a bit.

"Good! Let them be a lesson to others." Xie Xian's face was grim as he walked away first.

Gu Yue came to Tang Wulin's side, chuckled softly, "Don't mind them, we will definitely win."

Tang Wulin turned his head to look at her. Gu Yue's eyes held no arrogance, only confidence. In the previous few matches, they hadn't truly unleashed their full strength, especially Gu Yue. Among the three, Rao felt that Xie Xie was the strongest, but in reality, the truly powerful one was the girl beside him. Her talent even impressed Teacher Wu!

Gu Yue patted his shoulder and left by herself. Her graceful figure soon disappeared into the crowd of other students.

Tang Wulin clenched his fists. His teammates were all so powerful, and as the captain, his strength was far inferior. Whether it was to survive or to become stronger, he had to obtain the Bingjing Fruit and Chiyan Fruit as soon as possible.

When he arrived at the workshop, Meng was still there. Tang Wulin first completed the forging task he had taken last week. With his proficiency in using the Thousand Forging Silver Hammer, completing tasks for a Level 2 blacksmith was now quite easy. He didn't produce any scrap, and he could take on two tasks each time, earning more Federation coins.

Tang Wulin left all his savings here. He counted them, and there were already over three hundred and twenty thousand Federal Coins. Although there was still a gap between the purchase of Ice Crystal Fruit and Crimson Flame Fruit, if he could take on level three missions, it shouldn't be too difficult.

Looking at the metal that had been refined by his own hands, Tang Wulin sat there in a daze. Since arriving in East Sea City, many changes had occurred in his life. He had seen many things he had never encountered in Ao Lai City before.

After several months, the confusion in his heart gradually disappeared. He saw a world that was even more wonderful. As his power increased and he received more attention from the Blacksmith Association, his confidence also grew. He still clearly remembered what his father had said to him before he left home: "Keep your eyes on the future."

Yes! Only by looking forward can we see more wonderful worlds.

At that moment, the sound of the door opening came from outside. Tang Wulin hurried out to greet them.

Mang was wearing a plain gray outfit, looking rather windswept and travel-worn.

"Teacher," Tang Wulin hurriedly called out respectfully.

"Mmm." Mang replied, taking off his coat and handing it to him, then walked inside.

Tang Wulin was already used to his teacher doing this. Every time he came, Meng Hao would inspect the finished products he made to assess if his forging had improved.

After hanging up his teacher's clothes, Tang Wulin also stepped into the studio. In Mu En's hand, he was fiddling with a rare metal he had just forged.

As Tang Wulin became more familiar with the Blacksmith Association's missions, the Level 2 missions he took on became increasingly difficult. Tasks like refining a hundred pieces of rare metal, for example, were already considered top-tier among Level 2 blacksmiths. Each successful completion could yield over 30,000 Federation coins in profit.

"Well, not bad. The refining is very good." Mang nodded. With his strictness, being able to make such praise was already the utmost.

"It's all thanks to the teachers." Tang Wulin hurriedly said.

Meng put down the metal in his hand and turned to face him, "Have you learned to be slick with your words"

Tang Wulin stuck out his tongue. “No! I’m telling the truth.”

"Don't you have something to say to me" he asked.

Although Tang Wulin had made up his mind, he hesitated for a moment when facing his teacher. But it was only a brief pause before the imminent life-or-death crisis he faced dispelled all doubt.

"Teacher, I want to apply for the Level Three Forging Master assessment." Tang Wulin mustered his courage and said this.

He was stunned for a moment, then asked, "Reason"

Tang Wulin said, “I need more money to improve myself.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Māng looked at him, silent.

Tang Wulin's heart was filled with some anxiety. After finishing his sentence, he lowered his head and waited for the teacher's criticism. He understood that Master Meng not letting him take the third-level blacksmithing assessment must have his intentions. He had never doubted his master before, but now he really needed money.

"How to improve" Mang fell silent for a long time before asking again.ice. 。 。The Dragon Slayer's blade, complete today! Let us offer heaven and earth as tribute, and cleave open the heavens and earth!"A colossal nine-colored dragon suddenly shrank, transforming into a...
