Douluo Dragon King: I, the wielder of the Holy Sword, will vanquish all evil.

Who is Su Qiu in Chapter 39?
Within Donghai City, only Su Qiu could feel the terrifying pressure that came and went quickly.

In the blink of an eye, the pillar of light that stretched across the sky in the distance disappeared.

Su Qiu lowered his head in deep thought.

The only possibility he could think of was that Gu Yue and Tang San were going up against each other.

This was to be expected.

The increasingly obvious abnormalities in Tang Wulin's body were noticeable to anyone.

Most outsiders, like Wu Changkong, would think it was a mutation of the martial soul.

While others might not know, how could Gu Yue not know? She was absolutely certain she could detect the Golden Dragon King's aura within Tang Wulin.

So whether it's a test or not, it's only a matter of time before the Silver Dragon King clashes with Tang San.

The outcome of their fight is easy to predict. We'll find out by observing Tang Wulin and Gu Yue's condition when they return to school.

Silently putting down the forging hammer, Su Qiu said, "Teacher, let's stop practicing here for today. I'm going back to meditate now."

"Okay." After spending so many years together, Mu Chen noticed something was off about Su Qiu, but he didn't say anything. He knew that if Su Qiu really encountered something, she would tell him.

Su Qiu is not the type to put pressure on herself and is never ashamed to seek help from her elders.

Goodbye, teacher.

Waving goodbye, Su Qiu turned and quickened her pace as she left the Forging Masters Association.

The colliding divine forces made him realize his own insignificance.

Like a lone boat in a storm, it could capsize at any moment.

A sense of urgency rose within me.

It wasn't that she was afraid of Gu Yue or Tang San, but rather that she wanted to be less powerless in the face of such power next time.

Overall, he lacked a sense of security.

Su Qiu was easygoing with Gu Yue and just went along with her.

After all, there was no way to resist, there was really nothing they could do.

As for Tang San...

Su Qiu's opinion of him was simple: he was stupid.

In Su Qiu's opinion, Tang San wasn't bad. He was just arrogantly stupid.

He split his daughter's soul in two and then reassembled it. He treated his son-in-law like a dog.

There wasn't some conspiracy involved. It's just that Tang San, this extraordinary person, genuinely believed it was for the good of his daughter and son-in-law!
Ten thousand years ago, they used children to force the oranges away, and there was also that grand plan that lasted for ten thousand years.

Tang San really thought he was very clever.

It's even more astonishing than the wisdom of the Silver Dragon King!

Su Qiu feared this kind of genius the most. Not only were they stupid, but they also insisted they were right. More importantly, they possessed an unyielding power that no one could stop! No amount of persuasion could sway them.

Ultimately defying the heavens.

This is the true meaning of how a clever person's ingenuity can outsmart a fool's brilliant idea.

The results of the Holy Spirit Cult's various terrorist attacks and killings over the years.

He was like a greenhorn in the face of a long-term plan.

At this moment, Su Qiu hoped that Gu Yue would win this match.

After all, Gu Yue's actions were at least traceable. But Tang San had no idea when Gu Yue would suddenly come up with a new, ingenious idea.

The final match of the promotion tournament. Class 5 versus Class 1.

Class 5 will field Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Gu Yue as their representatives.

The three from Class One were Wang Jinxi, Zhang Yangzi, and Wei Xiaofeng. They visibly relaxed after noticing Su Qiu wasn't participating. The battle began quickly.

Su Qiu looked at the people on the stage, lost in thought. Tang Wulin looked somewhat dejected, but his strength had visibly improved compared to before.

Gu Yue strolled leisurely across the exciting competition stage as usual.

Xie Xie has also made a lot of progress.

So Tang San won? But Gu Yue seemed to be in a good mood.

Sensing Su Qiu's gaze, Gu Yue on the competition stage even had the leisure to turn around and wink at him.

Su Qiu: "Hmm?"

Su Qiu hadn't noticed before, but upon closer inspection, she suddenly realized that Gu Yue seemed to have become much prettier than she had three months ago.
The battle ended, and as expected, Class 5 emerged victorious. They should now be called the new Class 1.

The college then convened an emergency meeting.

After a series of rambling remarks, Long Hengxu announced: "In view of the outstanding performance of the new Class 1 of Grade 1 in the promotion competition, the whole class will be rewarded with a Class A meal every day for the rest of the semester."

These words immediately turned the commotion into cheers.

"Quiet."

Long Hengxu stopped them, and after the cheers subsided, he continued, "Due to the outstanding performance of this year's first-year students, the academy has decided to pilot the establishment of a 'First-Year Class Zero,' selecting the most outstanding students to join, with Wu Changkong taking over as the class teacher. The students currently selected are: Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, Gu Yue, and Su Qiu from Class One; and Zhang Yangzi, Wang Jinxi, and Wei Xiaofeng from Class Two. Those who perform exceptionally well in the future will still have the opportunity to join."

"Zero Class?"

The students were all stunned. Donghai Academy had never had such a setup before, and the fact that Wu Changkong was the class teacher made it even more unexpected.

Of course, most importantly, who is Su Qiu?!
The crowd on the playground gradually became restless.

Wang Jinxi and his two classmates from Class 1 and the students from Class 5 didn't react much. They naturally knew that Su Qiu was the real genius among the first-year students.

But other people don't know!

Many students inquired around and found that the other six students selected for Class Zero were fine, as their strength was evident after just finishing a competition. But who was Su Qiu? They had no idea.

Some students have already started to say, with a sour tone, that there's something fishy going on.

Normally, Su Qiu should step forward and show off his skills at this point, proving everyone wrong.

Unfortunately, Su Qiu has never been one to prove herself to those who doubt her.

He is very measured in matters of principle, but he likes to make little jokes in trivial matters.

He took the lead and charged forward, leading the doubting students, their shouts filled with resentment: "Teacher! We've all seen the strength of the others; they're the ones everyone wants. But who is this Su Qiu? Could there be something fishy going on?"

Seeing that someone was rushing in, some of the uninformed people who hadn't been selected for Class Zero and were unwilling to accept it instantly joined the group.

"Yeah, yeah, it couldn't be through back channels, could it?"

"I've never heard of this person before. There must be something going on."

Long Hengxu on the stage had expected this, after all, Su Qiu was usually too low-key, not even participating in the promotion competition. He was about to answer when he suddenly stopped. He looked at Su Qiu, who was at the forefront, in disbelief.

What is this little rascal doing? Why would someone deliberately start a conversation with him?
However, the dean was a man of the world. He took the microphone from the stunned Long Hengxu and calmly replied, "Su Qiu is the only three-ring Soul Master in this year's first-year class. He is naturally qualified to enter Class Zero."

Soul Master?!
The crowd gasped. That's not surprising, not surprising at all.

"Hmph." Su Qiu, still enjoying himself, snorted, "Could it be fake? Why isn't the Soul Master participating in the promotion competition?" He stirred up everyone's emotions.

At that moment, he became the bully he disliked the most, but the one bullying him was himself.

However, Su Qiu, who still had a long speech in his mind, stopped and looked at Gu Yue, who had unconsciously touched his side, with a puzzled expression: "What's wrong?"

"Do you like this?" Gu Yue's eyes were full of curiosity.

"What do you mean?" Su Qiu scratched his head.

“That’s right.” Gu Yue looked slightly troubled, unsure how to express herself, since she had given all her life experience to Na’er and was now just learning it all over again.
