Let's go to Sanjiang! Everyone, vote for our Dragon King in the Sanjiang election! Thank you, thank you.
-----------------------------------------
This was a match that couldn't even be called a rout, because there was no process of crushing. Everything was so easy and casual; Tang Wulin and Gu Yue didn't even use much of their soul power to defeat their opponents.
Just as Wu Changkong once said to Tang Wulin, at their age, Tang Wulin's sheer strength could defeat many soul masters.
Wu Changkong didn't even look at the Class 4 teacher, Kong Hanwen, and raised his head coldly, "School's out."
Xie Xie stood shoulder to shoulder with Tang Wulin, "I suddenly feel that the class promotion competition days are so happy. We don't have to do special training in the evenings anymore."
To maintain their physical fitness and condition, they didn't need to do special training during the competition period, which was why Xie Xie made this comment.
Long Hengxu also walked down from the competition platform, looking at the three of them with some surprise. Xie Xie was placed in Class 5 by him, taking advantage of the fight incident. With Xie Xie's talent, entering Class 1 should have been a given. But his family found Long Hengxu and said they hoped to give him better training, so he was assigned to Class 5.
At that time, Long Hengxu had many thoughts. Class 5, being the worst class, faced much more pressure from the academy than other classes. And Wu Changkong was just transferred to Class 5. Although almost no one in the upper echelons of the academy liked this cold and proud man, they had to admit his teaching and personal abilities were strong.
A further thought was that with a genius like Xie Xie in Class 5, the class promotion competition would inevitably put considerable pressure on other first-year classes, thus promoting the entire first-year teaching and learning motivation.
This was a win-win situation, the reason why the genius Xie Xie entered Class 5.
But now, it seemed that Class 5's competitive strength had already exceeded his original estimate. He was curious why Wu Changkong would send Tang Wulin to participate in the class promotion competition. He remembered clearly that this child's soul power was Blue Silver Grass!
As for that girl, she must be the one Wu Changkong was willing to admit his mistake to get into the class. Although he didn't see her display her true strength today, having a half-year soul ring was very telling.
This kind of combination for Class 5's competition team was probably heaven-defying! Even Class 1 might find it hard to win against them.
In the class promotion competition, if the underdog class kept winning, it wouldn't be good for him, who was responsible for admitting students. This would prove that the allocation was unfair. He was already a bit regretful for agreeing to let Gu Yue join Class 5.
"How about we go out and play?" Xie Xie whispered in Tang Wulin's ear.
Tang Wulin shook his head, "No, let's not. The cafeteria is about to open."
Xie Xie looked speechless, "You only think about eating."
Tang Wulin said irritably, "If I don't eat, I'll be hungry!"
Xie Xie said, "Alright, come with me, I'll treat you to a meal. How about it? I've been almost suffocated in the academy these days."
Donghai Academy's management wasn't particularly strict, and Donghai City was a wealthy city with excellent public security.
"Alright." The moment he heard about the free meal, Tang Wulin immediately agreed. In fact, he wanted to complete the forging task he had taken during his last week off.
Each Level 2 forging task could bring him 10,000 to 30,000 federal coins, and over these few months, he had saved 100,000 federal coins. This was a huge sum for him. At this rate, he was confident he could save enough for a century soul spirit by the time he reached his second ring.
A century soul spirit could provide two soul skills, meaning it could add two soul rings. This was very important for him.
"Me too!" Gu Yue had already come to their side.
Xie Xie said disdainfully, "No girls allowed!"
Gu Yue snorted coldly and looked at Tang Wulin, "Are you going with him or with me?"
Xie Xie said proudly, "Do I even need to say? We're roommates and good friends. What's it got to do with you?"
Gu Yue nodded and suddenly turned to shout in the direction Wu Changkong had left, "Teacher Wu, I think our cooperation isn't smooth enough. We should continue special training."
"Hey!" Xie Xie flashed in front of her, raising his hand to cover her mouth. Gu Yue's body flashed with silver light, moving two meters to Tang Wulin's side, and she sneered, "Want to fight?"
Xie Xie said in defeat, "Alright, alright, if you want to come, then come."
He really had no temper with Gu Yue. She was stronger than him, and that was enough for her to have him under her thumb.
They had been training together for so long, and in one-on-one situations, he had never won against Gu Yue. Only when he and Tang Wulin teamed up could they occasionally win.
It was strange, but Gu Yue always targeted him, while she was very nice to Tang Wulin. This created a very peculiar relationship among the three. Xie Xie and Gu Yue both got along well with Tang Wulin, but they didn't like each other. This was why Tang Wulin ultimately became the main contestant for Class 5. Only he could mediate, allowing the three's combat power to be maximized.
The three changed back into their own clothes and walked out of the academy.
"Where are we going?" Tang Wulin asked Xie Xie, who had suggested going out.
Xie Xie said, "Let's eat first. Isn't that your favorite? I know a street of snack shops. Let's go there."
Tang Wulin said, "Are you sure you're treating us?"
Xie Xie said irritably, "It's just snacks. Can't this young master afford it?"
Gu Yue said, "You reek of money." As she spoke, she deliberately walked to the other side of Tang Wulin.
Xie Xie was furious, "If you have the guts, don't eat."
Gu Yue said proudly, "I didn't plan to eat your food anyway. Tang Wulin, shouldn't a man have gentlemanly manners? You treat me."
Tang Wulin patted his forehead, "Can you two stop being so confrontational? We're here to relax, right?"
Gu Yue looked up at him seriously, "So, are you treating me or not?"
"I'll treat you." What else could Tang Wulin say?
Gu Yue looked at Xie Xie triumphantly, "Don't worry, miser, I won't eat your food. Your food is all..." She waved her hand in front of her nose, looking disdainful.
Xie Xie took several deep breaths. Whether in verbal sparring or fighting, he was no match for her. This was why he didn't want to bring Gu Yue out.
The snack street wasn't close to Donghai Academy. It took the three of them half an hour to get there.
On both sides of the not-too-wide street, shops lined up. As soon as they reached the street entrance, the three of them smelled various aromas wafting from the snack street, making their mouths water.
"Let's go eat that first, the canned beef. It's especially tender. With some white rice, it's the most delicious." As the local of Donghai City, Xie Xie suggested.
