Donghai Academy.
The typhoon that hit Donghai City came suddenly, causing a significant impact on the entire city. Stores were unable to operate, and schools were unable to teach. It even caused a traffic paralysis in a short time. The various departments of the Administrative Headquarters were extremely busy.
The typhoon lasted for a whole week, and at its strongest, it could even uproot large trees. Many buildings were also damaged.
Fortunately, everything has passed.
After the typhoon, the air in Donghai City seemed particularly fresh, with a light mist. The sun shone on the earth, and occasionally, a rainbow could be seen at the horizon. The sky was clear and cloudless.
"What's wrong with this guy? He still hasn't responded to my calls. His communicator seems to have run out of power, and I can't get through." Xie Xie was in no mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery outside the window. He sat in the classroom, anxious like an ant on a hot pan.
The reason was simple: Tang Wulin had gone missing.
During the typhoon, he had been diligently practicing under the guidance of Teacher Wu Changkong, finally making some breakthroughs. After breaking through, the first thing he thought of was to share this good news with his good friends. But who would have thought that Tang Wulin's soul conductor communicator was unreachable.
More importantly, classes had already resumed today, but Tang Wulin didn't show up at all, and no one knew where he had gone.
The start of classes also meant that the class promotion matches after school today would resume. They would face their formidable opponents, the first-year Class 1, known as the strongest new class in history!
Tang Wulin, what's going on with you?
"Do you know where his workshop is? Should we go look for him at noon?" Gu Yue's brows were tightly furrowed, and her eyes showed concern.
Xie Xie smiled bitterly. "I have no interest in forging, so how would I know where his workshop is! That day, he even called me specifically to tell me that he would be in the workshop all the time. If he's there, he shouldn't have any problems! Why hasn't he given any news yet? Did he forget the time?"
Gu Yue's face was grim. "Do you know anything? Let's go to the Forging Association at noon. They might have registered the location of his workshop."
Xie Xie, who rarely contradicted Gu Yue, nodded. "That's a good idea. Let's go after class."
By noon, Tang Wulin still hadn't appeared. Xie Xie and Gu Yue asked for leave from Wu Changkong and rushed out of the campus, heading straight for the Forging Association.
However, half an hour later, when they came out of the Forging Association, their faces were filled with frustration.
The Forging Association's response was simple: any information about registered workshops is confidential and cannot be disclosed. Unless they had special official permission. Moreover, the information about Tang Wulin was classified at a higher level than that of ordinary forgers.
"What should we do now? Should we ask Teacher Wu to apply for official permission to find out where he lives?" Gu Yue asked Xie Xie.
Xie Xie smiled bitterly. "That won't be in time! Official permission isn't easy to obtain and always takes time. It definitely won't be done today. We'll probably have to go into the match tonight with just the two of us. Tang Wulin isn't an unreliable person! He must have encountered something, otherwise, he wouldn't have skipped school."
Gu Yue's face lifted, her brows still furrowed. "Let's go back first. No matter what, we should ask Teacher Wu to apply for official permission. The match is not as important as Tang Wulin's safety."
"Okay."
"Official permission?" Wu Changkong looked at the two disciples in front of him, his already cold face becoming even more somber.
Tang Wulin still hadn't come to class, and they hadn't found him after searching.
"Alright, go back to class. I know." Wu Changkong said coldly.
"Teacher, so it's just the two of us for the match tonight?" Xie Xie asked.
Wu Changkong glanced at him. "Just the two of you."
"Yes."
Xie Xie and Gu Yue returned to the classroom with heavy hearts. Both of them were in low spirits. Although they thought there wasn't much difference between a 2v2 and a 3v3, and Tang Wulin was even the weakest link among the three, they had grown accustomed to their team. Without Tang Wulin, they always felt something was missing.
The afternoon classes passed quickly. Perhaps because the typhoon had kept the junior students suppressed for a week, as soon as school was out, a large number of students gathered on the playground, and even some teachers were waiting to watch the last class promotion match of the first year.
"Have you heard? This year's class promotion matches are so strange! First-year Class 5, which is usually at the bottom, has been on a winning streak, winning three consecutive matches. Maybe this dark horse can go all the way."
"Don't dream. Do you know how terrifying this year's first-year Class 1 is? They are called the strongest new class in history for a reason. Three of their students are already at the level of Great Soul Masters, and more importantly, their soul beasts are very powerful. The three participants from first-year Class 5 are only at the level of one ring, which is a qualitative difference. They lack a soul skill and soul power, so they have no chance at all. I'm curious to see how far this year's first-year Class 1 can go in the subsequent class promotion matches. I hear that the second-year classes are feeling the pressure. Hehe."
The students were discussing, and the teachers gathered around the competition venue.
Kong Hanwen, the homeroom teacher of first-year Class 4, was looking around the crowd, a cold smile on his face.
"Kong teacher, what are you looking for?" Ye Yingrong, the homeroom teacher of first-year Class 3, asked curiously.
Kong Hanwen said, "I'm looking for Wu Changkong. Isn't he very proud? I want to see how his students can defeat Class 1 today." Kong Hanwen had been harboring a grudge. After all, the class he led was defeated by Tang Wulin and the others, which meant it would be the bottom class of the first year! This was undoubtedly a huge disgrace, and it would be a significant blemish on his evaluation in the academy.
Ye Yingrong sighed. "Yes, this year's Class 1 is really too strong. I think the second-year classes will have a hard time competing with them. The first-year Class 1 now only has two students who have just broken through to the second ring. I estimate they will definitely reach the third year in the class promotion matches."
Kong Hanwen sneered in silence. His purpose today was to see what kind of face this so-called cold and proud man would have after his students lost.
"They're here." Ye Yingrong called out softly.
Kong Hanwen looked in the direction of her gaze and saw that Wu Changkong was walking at the front, surrounded by the students of first-year Class 5, heading toward the competition stage. Behind him were his two top disciples, Xie Xie and Gu Yue.
However, what surprised Kong Hanwen was that he didn't see the particularly handsome male student, Tang Wulin.
Just as Wu Changkong led the students of first-year Class 5 to the venue, there was a commotion on the other side.
The students spontaneously made way, forming a path.
At the front was a female teacher who looked to be about 27 or 28 years old. Her appearance was at least 60% similar to Ye Yingrong, but she was even more beautiful, with a proud air that Ye Yingrong lacked.
Following her were the students of first-year Class 1, known as the strongest new class in years. At the front were three male students. On the left was Wei Xiaofeng, who had previously had a conflict with Tang Wulin and Xie Xie.
In the center was a tall and robust young man. Compared to Wei Xiaofeng's arrogance, he appeared very steady and had a maturity that was rare for his age. On his other side was a very thin, almost skeletal male student. His eyes were somewhat cold, and he seemed to emit a dark aura, so no students followed him, as if no one wanted to get close to him.
Both sides gathered on either side of the competition stage, waiting for the class promotion match to begin.
Ye Yingrong quickly walked to the female teacher's side and whispered, "Sister."
