Douluo Amon: I am the Heavenly Venerable of the Dragon King

What's wrong with this kid? Could it be that he also has a mutated bloodline like Tang Wulin? Wu Changkong felt his understanding was being challenged. Great strength—could that really be a characteristic of children from Aolai City?

Tang Wulin's changes were minimal; his strength increased slightly, but not dramatically, not as much as Nan Fusheng's. Of course, their stats still left Xu Xiaoyan speechless.

They even couldn't help but ask Xie Xie: Are they really human, or are they transformed soul beasts?

Xu Xiaoyan's strength was very weak, to an appalling degree. To everyone else, her body was no different from that of an ordinary person.

What surprised Wu Changkong even more was the mental strength test that followed.

The first person to be tested was Xie Xie.

Xie Xie's spiritual power actually broke through sixty, reaching sixty-nine directly. He had reached the advanced stage of the Spirit Origin Realm.

The second person to be tested was the newcomer Xu Xiaoyan. The reason for this arrangement was that Wu Changkong believed that since the academy allowed her to enter Class Zero, she must have some special skills. Given her weak physical condition, her mental strength, combined with her ability to control ice elements, should not be weak.

Xu Xiaoyan's spiritual strength is 81, which is at the advanced stage of the Spirit Origin Realm, but she can't be called a genius. After all, she's only 12 points higher than Xie Xie, and that's where her strengths lie.

Chapter 85 Test

"Could Tang Wulin have broken the second seal?"

Nan Fusheng secretly guessed that he could no longer remember many details in the original work clearly, and could only roughly remember some key points. Asking him to remember everything clearly would be asking too much of Nan Fusheng.

"Two hundred and twelve?" Xie Xie's voice changed when he read out these numbers.

"Teacher Wu, are you sure there's nothing wrong with our equipment?" Xie Xie stared blankly at Tang Wulin. Two hundred and twelve, that's a mid-stage Spirit Realm level.

Tang Wulin's mental strength had been decent before, but it was just decent, not particularly outstanding. However, this new score of 212...

This has already surpassed the previous Gu Yue test! This is truly astonishingly brilliant data.

"Nan Fusheng, test."

Wu Changkong's surprise lasted only a short time, and he didn't show much emotional change on the surface. He seemed to have thought of something, so he quickly regained his composure.

"Two hundred and ninety-seven?" Nan Fusheng's data once again shocked the entire audience.

"Teacher Wu, this machine is probably broken," Xie Xie said, looking dazed.

“It’s not broken,” Wu Changkong said. He was also very shocked. Tang Wulin had actually been by his side for the past month, and he had a certain understanding of Tang Wulin’s improvement.

Even Tang Wulin's significant increase in mental strength was due to an accident. It was precisely because of that accident that he so firmly insisted that everyone in Class Zero undergo physical testing.

He had predicted that Nan Fusheng's mental strength would also improve significantly when Nan Fusheng's power surged earlier, but he did not expect it to improve by so much.

"Teacher Wu, am I dreaming? Why don't you slap me?" Xie Xie still couldn't believe reality; it seemed he was the only one who was really clueless here.

"Are you sure?" Wu Changkong raised an eyebrow and asked.

"Just kidding, just kidding." Xie Xie smiled sheepishly. He was just having trouble accepting the blow of being surpassed by his companions by so much, and he didn't really want to be slapped by Wu Changkong.

Exceeding 150 points of mental energy qualifies one as a mid-level Spiritual Connection Realm expert, exceeding 350 points is high-level, and 500 points marks entry into the Spiritual Sea Realm. Reaching the Spiritual Sea Realm represents a significant leap forward, a qualitative transformation. The mental energy of the vast majority of top-tier experts falls to that level.

"What kind of magic pills did you two take this past month? How did your spiritual power increase by more than a hundred all of a sudden?" Xie Xie looked at Nan Fusheng and Tang Wulin, his face full of shock.

Upon hearing Xie Xie's words, Tang Wulin didn't know how to respond. Could he say that his spiritual power had increased so much because of Teacher Wu's negligence, which led to his life being in danger?

Nan Fusheng wore a complex expression, his face contorted with pain, and he cried out in his heart, "Money, my money!"

Xie Xie's words reminded Nan Fusheng of the money that had left him; the pain was unbearable.

"Um... well, Fusheng, you don't have to force yourself to say it. I was just asking casually."

Seeing Nan Fusheng's 'painful' expression, Xie Xie realized that he might have said something wrong; it seemed that the other person had really gone through something painful in the past month.

Xie Xie recalled Nan Fusheng's words from yesterday: "You don't understand my pain!"

A chill ran down my spine. Nan Fusheng must have gone through some painful trials in the past month, otherwise why would he now show a pained expression just by thinking about it?

Clearly, others thought the same way, especially Wu Changkong and Tang Wulin, who felt the deepest emotions.

"It seems I need to keep an eye on this child. To be able to increase his mental strength so much in such a short time, he must have experienced a great deal of stimulation," Wu Changkong thought to himself.

"Three, three hundred and five?" Gu Yue's data stunned everyone present, and the slightly somber atmosphere brought about by Nan Fusheng's words was immediately broken.

A smile also appeared in Wu Changkong's eyes. These little guys are finally starting to look like monsters.

Xu Xiaoyan was originally very confident that she would stay in the competition after a month, but after seeing the data, she realized that there was still a big gap between her and the competition.

"Teacher Wu, I would like to request another mental strength test tonight," Xu Xiaoyan said, raising her hand.

"Hmm?" Wu Changkong looked at her, a thought flashing through his mind. "Does your mental strength change at night?"

"Mm." Xu Xiaoyan nodded.

This was originally her biggest secret, but her competitive spirit led her to choose to tell it.

"it is good."

"In the upcoming practical test, Nan Fusheng, Tang Wulin, and Xu Xiaoyan will be in one group, and Xie Xie and Gu Yue will be in another," Wu Changkong said calmly.

Xie Xie was taken aback by what he heard, but Gu Yue frowned and said, "Teacher Wu, this isn't fair. We're two rings, and they have one two-ring member and two one-ring members."

Nan Fusheng and Xu Xiaoyan are both control-type Soul Masters with low base combat strength. They'll be doomed if Xie Xie gets close. We should allocate our forces reasonably. How about this, Wu Lin and I will be in one group.

Xie Xie's speed, combined with Fu Sheng's powerful control and Xiao Yan's Star Wheel Ice Staff, makes more sense. Besides, Xie Xie's soul power is the highest among us.

Upon hearing her words, Xie Xie felt as if he were about to burst into tears. How much do you hate me? Now you remember that I have the highest soul power.

Gu Yue's words were pure nonsense. Nan Fusheng's control skills were too disgusting; even knowing his abilities, it would be difficult to defend against them. Moreover,

Xie Xie recalled that Nan Fusheng's punch had a force of over 3,000 jin. If they had gotten close, it was hard to say who would have won or lost.

Xie Xie thought the distribution of Wu Changkong was quite reasonable. He wasn't confident he could defeat either Nan Fusheng or Tang Wulin one-on-one, let alone the two of them together.

If Nan Fusheng and his group get close, they'll be the ones to lose. Adding a burden (Xu Xiaoyan) to their side at this point will force them to focus on their teammates, making them more attentive. Meanwhile, our side has an elemental turret like Gu Yue.

With this shift in power, the advantage lies with me (Xie Xie).

“Do as I say. When did I ever say that actual combat must be evenly matched?” Wu Changkong said coldly.

Nan Fusheng and Xu Xiaoyan stood behind Tang Wulin, while Xie Xie and Gu Yue were in the distance.

For some reason, Xu Xiaoyan found that the boy next to her gave people a sense of security, and standing next to him made her feel safe.

"Is it because he saved me?" the girl wondered to herself.

Chapter 86 Help Him Get Rid of It

"Are you good at the same things as your brother?" Nan Fusheng asked Xu Xiaoyan.

Xu Xiaoyan nodded slightly. "Same. Ranged attack, elemental control. My first soul skill is Ice Wheel, just like my brother's. I control it a little better than him. Actually, I'm stronger at night."

Nan Fusheng smiled slightly. "It's a pity it's not nighttime. It's alright. Just stay behind me for a while, I'll protect you. We'll do our best."

"Mmm, mmm." Seeing Nan Fusheng's smile, Xu Xiaoyan blushed and nodded repeatedly.

"Let's begin. Go all out." Wu Changkong's voice came from afar.

"Wu Lin. Well then, I'll have to apologize. Wahahaha!" Xie Xie chuckled, his figure flashing as he charged towards Tang Wu Lin at incredible speed. His speed was clearly even greater than before the holiday. Although he said he was going to have fun, he obviously hadn't let his guard down.

Gu Yue raised her hand, and a fireball flew out into the distance. At the same time, a beam of azure light landed on Xie Xie, and she herself slowly walked towards the three of them.

Releasing a fireball from that far? Is it even possible to reach it?

The two were fifty meters apart. Based on Nan Fusheng's understanding of Gu Yue, the fireball shouldn't have been able to travel that far. However, he didn't let his guard down, after all, Gu Yue wasn't the type to do useless work.

Sure enough, Gu Yue quickly demonstrated to him the powerful control ability brought about by her 305 points of mental strength.

The fireball flew ten meters before suddenly splitting into five smaller fireballs, which lined up in a straight line. Then, the last fireball suddenly accelerated and collided with the one in front of it.

The fire element within itself seemed to instantly stack up and compress to the front, not only accelerating the small fireballs in front but also boosting its attributes.

The five fireballs collided one after another. They quickly merged back into one. But compared to the original, it was five times smaller, and its color had turned orange-red.

With a sudden acceleration, it hurtled towards Tang Wulin's chest like a cannonball.

Amidst the ear-piercing whistling sound, a dazzling orange-red trail of flame and a distorted halo of light were even left in the air.

Tang Wulin chose to withstand Gu Yue's fireball head-on. A purple glint flashed in his eyes, and he suddenly took a step forward with his left foot, unleashing a powerful punch with his right fist. A layer of golden scales then covered his right fist.

Meanwhile, behind him, several blue silver grasses spread out like a peacock's tail.

"Boom!" The fireball shattered, exploding into a burst of light that illuminated the golden scales on Tang Wulin's fist. However, the powerful force of this punch prevented even a single spark from landing on him, and the scattered flames were blocked by the Blue Silver Grass.

At the same time, as the Blue Silver Grass appeared beneath Tang Wulin's feet, a circle of purple spirit rings also bloomed.

Purple? A thousand-year-old soul ring!

"He broke another seal? No, I remember that Tang Wulin gets a Qi and Blood Soul Ring every two seals he breaks, and his power hasn't increased much. He must have had some kind of fortuitous encounter this past month."

Nan Fusheng narrowed his eyes as he looked at the thousand-year soul ring on Tang Wulin's body, thinking that he had also had quite a few fortuitous encounters in the past month! At the same time, he also glanced at Wu Changkong, who stood to the side without any surprise.

While Nan Fusheng was pondering, Xie Xie did not stop. When he was still ten meters away from the three of them, he suddenly shouted, "Gu Yue!"

The next moment, dazzling light elements burst forth, so bright that Nan Fusheng and the other two could not open their eyes. Xie Xie bypassed Tang Wulin, who was in front of him, and went straight to Xu Xiaoyan behind him.

This was his and Gu Yue's tactic: first, use the light element to blind Nan Fusheng and the other two, sealing Nan Fusheng's first soul skill; at the same time, he, as an agility-type soul master, would launch a surprise attack on Xu Xiaoyan, striking where the enemy would have to defend.

If Nan Fusheng and Tang Wulin ignore Xu Xiaoyan, then they should eliminate her first, reducing their competition. If they want to save her, given Nan Fusheng's current condition of being unable to open his eyes...

If he's fast enough, he might have a chance to kill two people in a row. If that doesn't work, he can turn back and attack Tang Wulin from both sides with Gu Yue.

Once Gu Yue is dealt with, Xie Xie will no longer be a problem. As for Xu Xiaoyan, he didn't consider her. They had never cooperated before, and he didn't know the extent of Xu Xiaoyan's strength.
