Chapter 15: Promotion Tournament Hits the Heavenly Substitute, First Meeting Tang Wulin and Gu Yue (4

The vast and boundless primeval forest, the air is fresh and pleasant, the ancient trees are intertwined, the Haicheng Spirit Ascension Platform is no different from the headquarters environment, all imitating the outer area of the Star Dou Great Forest.

The ink-black and silver-white pupils opened suddenly. The other party was right beside him. The riot period Spirit Ascension Platform allows soul master teams to enter, and they will be teleported together, so there is no need to waste time finding each other.

"Xiang Xiang Naer, how many more years can your two soul rings increase in total." Zhao Xuanzhen asked.

"About two hundred years."

The two had lived together for four years and had long become the most tacit partners. As soon as Zhao Xuanzhen spoke, Xiang Xiang Naer instantly understood what he meant.

Backed by the Spirit Tower vice tower master, the Spirit Ascension Platform quota that outside soul masters scramble for is easily available. As long as the body/spirit can bear it, Zhao Xuanzhen and Xiang Xiang Naer can enter the Spirit Ascension Platform to promote soul rings anytime, anywhere.

This means that the two people's soul rings have almost reached the limit. Today's slaughter of soul beasts in the Spirit Ascension Platform should be slightly restrained.

Zhao Xuanzhen is the True Self of the body martial soul, and his physical fitness far exceeds Xiang Xiang Naer's, but the two ten-thousand-year soul rings have a huge burden, at most absorbing three hundred years of spirit power feedback, and still need to reserve a part of the blank to kill the guardian.

Small problem, most of the primary Spirit Ascension Platform are ten-year and hundred-year soul beasts. Calculated at a 10% conversion rate, the two together have a full five-thousand-year quota, and the Spirit Ascension soul ring itself is not the ultimate goal of this trip.

The two walked side by side, heading towards the depths of the Spirit Ascension Platform.

"Zhao Xuanzhen."

"Hmm?"

"Why did Aunt Leng suddenly let us test that Gu Yue." Xiang Xiang Naer's eyes revealed a look of doubt.

"Gu Yue is a genius soul master recommended by the Haicheng Tower master, and she is willing to join the Spirit Tower. Teacher plans to recruit her directly into the Huangjiazu Sect faction.

Me, you, Gu Yue, the three of us are the trident in Teacher's mind.

The so-called test is just a formality. One is to facilitate Teacher to observe in person whether Gu Yue's ability is true, and the other is for the three trident blades to get to know each other. As the old saying goes, don't fight, don't know each other."

Zhao Xuanzhen explained patiently. Xiang Xiang Naer is indeed talented, but Leng Yaoju will not tell her all her thoughts without reservation.

In Leng Yaoju's heart, the most important status is always her direct disciple Zhao Xuanzhen, whom she brought up by hand. Xiang Xiang Naer is a solid and powerful left arm, and Gu Yue is the right arm of the future.

"Is there a possibility that the two of us beat Gu Yue up, and then Aunt Leng abandons her." Xiang Xiang Naer said eagerly.

"Gu Yue joining the Spirit Tower is a board-on-nail thing, and there is a powerful hidden family behind her. Teacher plans to meet Gu Yue's mother, Purple Dragon Douluo.

Talent, strength, background, all three are available. If such a genius soul master young master is willing to join, the Spirit Tower will never miss it. Even if Teacher disagrees, the four Spirit Tower envoys, Vice Tower Master Zhang Geyang, and even the Tower Master Qian Gu line will do their best to win over Gu Yue.

Xiang Xiang Naer, the Spirit Tower is not of one mind, and there are many factions inside. Instead of letting Gu Yue stand in another team, it is better to recruit her for my own use. We know everything she does."

"Alright."

Hearing this, Xiang Xiang Naer let out a long sigh, full of annoyance in the sigh, and then bypassed to the front of Zhao Xuanzhen, looked up at the pitch-black eyes, and emphasized seriously:

"We have lived together for four years, going out in the wind and rain every day. That Gu Yue is coming, you absolutely cannot help her bully me, it's best... it's best not to be too close to her!"

"Got it, you want me to pretend to play with her?"

"Hit the nail on the head!"

Xiang Xiang Naer was ecstatic, feeling for the first time that Zhao Xuanzhen was speaking human words!

"Alright, there are three hundred-year soul beasts approaching, prepare for battle." Zhao Xuanzhen said helplessly.

"Just mere hundred-year soul beasts, you do it!"

Xiang Xiang Naer applied to be lazy. They were players who broke into the intermediate Spirit Ascension Platform. Coming to the primary Spirit Ascension Platform was purely opening a small account to abuse vegetables. She decided to be a lying-win dog once.

Hundreds of meters away, three hundred-year soul beasts arrived in an instant, grabbing ancient tree branches with both hands, and rushing over like swinging on a swing.

Ape-type soul beast, hundred-year Iron Arm Ape.

"Strange, why do I deal with gorillas, baboons, and monkeys every day..."

Zhao Xuanzhen fell into deep thought. He beat wind baboons in the headquarters Spirit Ascension Platform, beat powerful gorillas in the True Illusionary Realm, and fought Iron Arm Apes in Haicheng!

During the riot period, soul beasts were more manic than normal times. The three Iron Arm Apes approached Zhao Xuanzhen quickly, fierce light flashed in their beast eyes, and they pounced from three directions.

"Boom, boom, boom!"

The Iron Arm Ape team missed, stirring up a burst of dust. In their perspective, the prey disappeared at a speed close to teleportation, and then the arm of an Iron Arm Ape was locked by a white palm. Incredible power pulled and tore, driving the entire beast body, and the whole body twisted in the air!

"Rip—"

The Iron Arm Ape is known as copper skin and iron bones, but under Zhao Xuanzhen's dark energy, the steel-like body was twisted into a twist. The big mouth didn't have time to scream and died on the spot.

The ending of the remaining two Iron Arm Apes was the same. The throat and the back of the heart were severely damaged, the neck was broken, and the heart was ruptured, following their partners to the yellow spring. The killing process did not exceed ten seconds. Zhao Xuanzhen didn't even use his martial soul, purely relying on his sturdy physical fitness and Tai Chi.

The three hundred-year soul beasts died, and thick yellow spirit power dissipated. The riot period fusion duration is 100 times that of normal times. Zhao Xuanzhen absorbed it slowly, which was better than nothing to improve the soul ring years.

"Boom——"

In the distance, a crimson light cut through the sky, the scorching high temperature made the surrounding air distort, and it went straight to Zhao Xuanzhen and Xiang Xiang Naer.

The two didn't even hide, because the attack was just a show-off intimidation. The light fell to the ground with a bang, igniting a large area of flames.

Two men and one woman walked out from within the firelight, appearing to be fifteen or sixteen years old. The two boys were ordinary and unremarkable, while the young girl was extremely beautiful, her golden long hair combed into a ponytail, her combat outfit making her look heroic and spirited.

The one who just warned the two was the blonde girl. A scorching fireball like a sun floated above her head, and the three soul rings of two yellow and one purple were shining brightly, saying coldly:

"Leave the spirit power, leave the Spirit Ascension Platform, otherwise Blazing Sun will fall on you next time."

The tacit understanding formed over a long time, Zhao Xuanzhen and Xiang Xiang Naer synchronized their movements, turned their heads to look at each other, and saw the appreciation for the girl's courage from each other's eyes. Haicheng has many capable people!

"I'll be back soon."

Zhao Xuanzhen didn't deliberately restrain his voice. This sentence clearly rang in the girl's ears, and she immediately raised her willow eyebrows.

The riot period Spirit Ascension Platform is essentially a battle of grinding. Those who enter face soul beasts and soul masters at the same time. Seeing Zhao Xuanzhen and Xiang Xiang Naer were young, she thought she had shown mercy, but the other party didn't seem to take her seriously at all!

"Sister Mu Xi?" The two boys probed.

"Clear them!"

Mu Xi snorted coldly, the first soul ring of the Blazing Sun martial soul bloomed, and bundles of high-heat fireballs condensed, mixed with the girl's anger at being ignored!

The next second, a scene that shocked Mu Xi's worldview happened. Zhao Xuanzhen's toes touched the ground, his body was like willow catkins, his steps were agile and elegant, and he almost brushed past the Blazing Sun fireball without suffering any harm!

"Sister Mu Xi, I'll help you!"

A boy roared, three yellow soul rings rose, purple-black dragon scales attached to the side of his face, and a suppressed spiritual fluctuation expanded, Fear Demon Dragon!

In the dragon race where the strong are respected, the Fear Demon Dragon has always been inconspicuous, with mediocre bloodline and weak physical fitness, but as a rare spiritual soul beast, the spiritual attack of the Fear Demon Dragon is hard to guard against, and it is a tool for sneaking up on people!

"Third soul skill, Spiritual Fear!"

The Fear Demon Dragon Soul Venerable directly used the third soul skill at the bottom of the box. The strange spiritual fear pressed towards Zhao Xuanzhen. He was very confident that as long as the spiritual fear took effect for one second, Zhao Xuanzhen would definitely be swallowed by Blazing Sun's flames!

"Puff——"

A mouthful of blood suddenly sprayed out, the Fear Demon Dragon Soul Venerable's spiritual sea kept trembling, blood sprayed from the seven orifices, the spiritual power gap between the two sides was too large, spiritual backlash!

"Spirit, Spirit Abyss Realm!"

Years of hard cultivation plus martial soul talent, the Fear Demon Dragon gave him Spirit Penetration Realm spiritual power. Ignoring spiritual fear and backlashing himself meant that the enemy was at least Spirit Abyss Realm spiritual power!

Immediately after, Zhao Xuanzhen's True Self martial soul possessed him, a strand of black hair on his forehead turned pale, and his momentum soared crazily!

Pitch black, pitch black!

Two ten-thousand-year soul rings like black suns came out, as if swallowing all light. Mu Xi and the three were stunned, ten-thousand-year soul rings!

"Run!"

All of Mu Xi's thoughts immediately vanished, and Blazing Sun threw out a wall of fire.

The last boy received the signal and hurriedly released his martial soul. A pair of giant wings grew behind his back, and countless iron-black feathers closed, taking the two partners and soaring into the air!

Martial soul Giant Wing Griffin, first soul skill Charge, second soul skill Wind Protection!

The moment Zhao Xuanzhen's martial soul possessed him, the three understood that they had hit an iron plate today. Two ten-thousand-year soul rings plus Spirit Abyss Realm spiritual power, a monster they had never heard of!

"Fortunately we can fly..." The Fear Demon Dragon Soul Venerable said with lingering fear, "Sister Mu Xi, let's honestly hunt soul beasts, not sure if we will hit another pervert..."

"You're right, but..." Mu Xi's face was ugly, "The pervert below doesn't seem to mean to let us go!"

The Fear Demon Dragon Soul Venerable looked down and saw two figures galloping at high speed in the forest. The speed was almost not slower than the flight speed of the Giant Wing Griffin. The black and white Tai Chi diagram had already crossed the dense trees at some point and rushed towards the Giant Wing Griffin!

Qi moves mountains and rivers!

"Ah——"

The Giant Wing Griffin Soul Venerable screamed, his wings were severely damaged by the Yin and Yang Qi, and he lost his flight ability and fell down!

Dizziness surged into his mind, Mu Xi and the three shook their heads, their whole bodies were in pain, fortunately there was a buffer of trees, so they were not teleported out of the Spirit Ascension Platform.

"Mu Xi?"

Mu Xi slowed down for two and a half seconds, looking back at the source of the sound. There were many people around, all students of various grades of Haicheng Academy.

Haicheng Academy is the first soul master academy in Haicheng, and many descendants of Haicheng high-level officials are enrolled to cultivate. The riot period Spirit Ascension Platform is twice a year, and the forces behind those students have taken action to strive for the Spirit Ascension quota. They happened to walk together in the Spirit Ascension Platform, and there was at least basic trust between classmates, so they decided to team up to improve the success rate of hunting.

The leader was a seventeen or eighteen-year-old youth, soul power cultivation level 35, soul rings two yellow and one purple, holding a long-handled staff that was completely white, with a blue crystal embedded at the top.

Behind the youth was a little girl, holding the same ice staff, a yellow soul ring lonely, light blue long hair combed into cute double ponytails, and a smart and exquisite little face curiously looking at the three people who fell from the sky.

"Senior Xu Xiaoyu!"

Mu Xi recognized the youth and couldn't help but be a little surprised.

"What's going on?" Xu Xiaoyu frowned.

Mu Xi smiled bitterly: "It can be considered self-inflicted trouble. We found two young soul masters who killed three hundred-year Iron Arm Apes and thought about picking up a bargain.

As a result, one of them had two ten-thousand-year soul rings and Spirit Abyss Realm spiritual power. We turned around and ran away, and then we were beaten down by that guy's soul skill. They should be catching up soon."

Ten-thousand-year soul ring, Spirit Abyss Realm spiritual power!

Like two thunderbolts splitting the heavenly spirits of the Haicheng students, Xu Xiaoyu and the little girl with double ponytails were also extremely shocked. Mu Xi didn't pick a soft persimmon, but picked a ninth-rank fixed-load soul guidance artillery shell!

"Sister Mu Xi, putting aside the facts, aren't they wrong!" Someone shouted loudly.

"Yes, taking a step back, everyone has something wrong, why bother to force it!"

"Brothers help you fight back!"

The crowd was excited, but in fact, it was all human feelings. Mu Xi is a genius forging master, and her father is the eighth-rank Saint Craftsman Mu Chen. At this moment, pleasing Mu Xi is no different from sending charcoal in the snow, and both oneself and the family's future can benefit!

"So what if there are two ten-thousand-year soul rings, the soul power is at most level 29, I don't believe he can beat us all!"

A strong man hammered his chest heavily: "Brother Xiaoyu, I am a defense-type soul master, I will be the first to go up in a while!"

Xu Xiaoyu nodded silently. The Xu family is one of the best big families in Haicheng, and his father is the chief financial officer. He had long told him to try to maintain a good relationship with Mu Xi. He was about to graduate, and hooking up with Saint Craftsman Mu Chen had no disadvantages.

The Haicheng Academy crowd quickly lined up, waiting for the BOSS to descend.

A moment later, Zhao Xuanzhen and Xiang Xiang Naer walked through the forest. Seeing the appearance of the two, everyone's eye sockets jumped subconsciously. The first impression was two people who were as clean as the morning sun, unlike the monsters in Mu Xi's mouth.

"Is this a team?" Zhao Xuanzhen said faintly.

"Since that's the case, then clear the field."

"Jie jie jie, just what I want!"

Xiang Xiang Naer showed the temperament of a villain demon king.

"Avenge Sister Mu Xi!"

The strong man rushed out of the team first, holding an earth-yellow giant shield in each hand, and the two yellow and one purple soul rings lit up one after another!

Advanced defense-type martial soul, Rock Giant Shield!

First soul skill Hardening, second soul skill Expansion, third soul skill Rock Power!

As solid as gold, indestructible!

"Brothers, come on, I'll hold it!"

"Wulin, there are many soul masters fighting in front."

The five-person group groped forward, a black eagle circled in the air, and one person suddenly spoke.

"Go over and see, be vigilant."

Captain Tang Wulin made a decision, and the five moved towards the source of the battle. There was one thing that was very strange. The rear and middle of the team always maintained an excessively long distance, and the black-haired girl responsible for breaking the rear had a cold expression.

They carefully rushed to the battlefield and saw the whole battle completely.

A group of people besieged two, and the strong man holding two giant shields rushed towards the boy with black and white mixed hair. The latter's response was simple and straightforward. Black and white air currents attached to his elbows, and he turned and slammed!

"Brothers, run, I was knocked away by an elbow!"

The Rock Giant Shield collapsed, the strong man flew out, shouting to retreat, a huge deep pit was sunken in his chest, and he exited the Spirit Ascension Platform on the spot!

The boy took back his elbow, and the other two assault-type soul masters rushed to the front from left to right. He didn't even light up the terrifying ten-thousand-year soul ring and fought head-on.

Fists, palms, elbows, leans, every strike threw out a sound that shook the air, every move was aimed at the vital parts of the human body, and those who were hit were like being hit by a truck, their bodies tilted back violently, nailed to the ground and unable to move.

Tang Wulin looked at the people below who went from group siege to fleeing everywhere, and then saw his familiar senior sister Mu Xi. She and the ice staff man joined forces to release fireballs and frost, attempting to block the boy's advance, but before touching him, they were rolled into the black and white vortex, and the doubled power chased them to scurry away.

Zhao Xuanzhen played Yin and Yang reversal to bounce back the fire of Blazing Sun and the ring of the ice staff. The human sea tactic was a clumsy stunt for him. Every shot inevitably knocked down one person, and the sound of the body falling to the ground was as dull as a heavy hammer.

Suddenly, he seemed to perceive something and looked in a certain direction. Those were faces that were a bit stunned.

"He found us."

The black-haired girl who was away from the team said faintly.

The remaining four looked at each other, and the handsome boy holding a golden dagger said bitterly:

"Wulin, our final exam is probably in trouble..."

Tang Wulin nodded deeply, Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi covered their faces in pain.

Promotion tournament hits the heavenly substitute, we are finished!
