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

Chapter 27 Promotion Tournament Begins

When Nan Fusheng returned to his dormitory, he was exhausted, but he still managed to sit cross-legged and enter a meditative state.

"The current cultivation speed has reached its limit. If you want to improve it further, you can only try to improve your physical fitness or strengthen your meridians."

Previously, when the students of Class 5 were fighting against Wu Changkong, Nan Fusheng had already taken down his three roommates.

The "Time Worm" on his body (hereinafter referred to as the Time Worm) was recovered, and then during the battle with Wu Changkong, he used the Steal technique while secretly parasitizing Wu Changkong.

"Wu Changkong truly lives up to his reputation as a Soul Emperor. His cultivation speed alone is equivalent to that of the eight people I previously possessed. And this speed of soul power circulation... is it the Mysterious Heaven Technique?"

After successfully possessing Wu Changkong, Nan Fusheng couldn't wait to test how fast a Soul Emperor's cultivation speed could be. To prevent Wu Changkong from discovering this,

Nan Fusheng parasitized three "Time Worms" at once (which affected Wu Changkong's senses while he was cultivating, causing him to ignore the slowdown in his soul power cultivation).

"It seems that even a sixth-ring Soul Emperor can't detect my parasitism. Wu Changkong probably isn't pretending not to notice it, but is trying to set a trap."

Why would they say that? Because the people of the Tang Clan valued the Tang Clan's martial arts techniques and unique skills more than their own lives.

When Nan Fusheng was parasitizing Wu Changkong's body, he could clearly sense the operating route of the Tang Sect's martial arts techniques.

Given Wu Changkong's personality, he wouldn't use the purpose of entrapment to expose the Tang Clan's precious techniques to Nan Fusheng, at least not before Nan Fusheng became a Tang Clan disciple.

After thinking it over, Nan Fusheng retrieved two Time Worms from the senior students, otherwise keeping them would be a waste of time.

Nan Fusheng can absorb the soul power of others for cultivation, and he can also absorb the soul power generated by others during their cultivation process.

However, while he could absorb energy, it wasn't some kind of "star-absorbing technique." Furthermore, due to limitations such as the strength of Nan Fusheng's meridians, he could only maintain a certain level of soul power cultivation at its limit.

Unless he chooses to directly absorb the life force and soul power of others, instead of absorbing the soul power generated during their cultivation as he is doing now.

Currently, Nan Fusheng has three Time Worms parasitizing Wu Changkong: three for senior students and three for himself, waiting to find a suitable target.

Starting the next day, Tang Wulin was granted special permission to skip physical training. The reason was simple.

In Wu Changkong's view, his physical abilities were inferior to Tang Wulin's, and ordinary training was of little use to a prodigy like Tang Wulin with extraordinary talent. It would be better to spend his time on other cultivation methods, such as how to better control the Blue Silver Grass.

Nan Fusheng, who also possesses exceptional physical abilities, was granted special permission by Wu Changkong to focus on cultivating his soul power and researching his martial soul.

On the third day of physical education class, many of the other students in Class 5 of Grade 1 finally collapsed from exhaustion. From that day on, the schedule returned to physical education in the morning and theory class in the afternoon.

With only half a day of physical training classes, the trainees found it much easier and no one complained.

Nan Fusheng, Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Gu Yue underwent a mental strength test, and the results were astonishing. Xie Xie's mental strength was 29, which was a very good result among his peers, approaching the mid-stage of the Spirit Origin Realm.

Tang Wulin's mental strength was 44, which put him directly at the mid-stage of the Spirit Origin Realm. However, he didn't mention that his mental strength was only 38 during his last test. His mental strength had improved considerably in such a short time.

Their combined spiritual power had already brought Wu Changkong some surprises, but compared to Nan Fusheng and Gu Yue, they were really inconspicuous.

Although Nan Fusheng intentionally concealed his spiritual power, it still reached a high of ninety-two, directly reaching the peak of the Spirit Origin Realm.

Gu Yue's spiritual power was as high as 119, which was far beyond the Spirit Origin Realm.

In the realm of spiritual power, the initial level is the Spiritual Origin Realm. Once the spiritual power test value exceeds one hundred, one directly enters another level, known as the Spiritual Connection Realm.

The Spiritual Connection Realm signifies spiritual enlightenment and the ability to communicate one's thoughts and intentions. Reaching the Spiritual Connection Realm marks the beginning of mastering one's spiritual power, allowing one to truly control one's own spiritual power for one's own use, and enabling one to carry two yellow spirits or one purple spirit.

Wu Changkong then confirmed that Gu Yue's Martial Soul Elementalist was likely actually a rare spiritual Martial Soul, which communicated with and was used by her through powerful spiritual energy and elements.

Mental-type Soul Masters are the rarest and most sought-after in the world today because they are the most compatible with mecha. This also makes Wu Changkong value Nan Fusheng and Gu Yue even more.

Of course, the training intensity will be the same; the more valued you are by the aloof male god, the greater the training volume will be.

The following days were very fulfilling. I practiced and meditated diligently six days a week, and spent the remaining day practicing in my dormitory or visiting other dormitories to hone my "dream thief" skills and steal dreams.

Basically, whichever student Nan Fusheng took a liking to, he would directly parasitize them with the Time Worm, and then at night, he would steal their dreams through the Time Worm on their bodies. However, the targets of his theft were mostly students from the intermediate level.

Fulfilling days always pass quickly, and two months have gone by in the blink of an eye. Nan Fusheng's soul power has reached level sixteen, basically level one per month. Until this day, Wu Changkong called him, Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Gu Yue to his office and told them that the first match of the promotion competition would begin next week.

In just over two months, everyone has changed quite a bit. Most importantly, under Wu Changkong's inhuman "special training," they've developed a very strong teamwork, and the four of them get along very well. Well, except for Xie Xie, who is occasionally stared at by Gu Yue with a look as if he were a "burden."

Undoubtedly, Gu Yue is the strongest among the four. Even when facing Nan Fusheng, she only needs to first use light element to obscure his vision, then use spatial element to teleport, followed by a barrage of fireballs, ice spikes, and wind blades. Nan Fusheng would be helpless against her. Only Gu Yue, who has mastered multiple elements, could pull off such a feat.

Despite Xie Xie exerting all his strength during the special training, he still couldn't catch up with Gu Yue.

However, after more than two months, Xie Xie's soul power had already reached level nineteen. With one more level up, he could absorb the second soul ring from his hundred-year-old soul spirit and advance to the rank of Great Soul Master.

Gu Yue's soul power reached level seventeen, advancing two levels. Although Tang Wulin possessed the Blue Silver Grass martial soul, he diligently practiced martial soul control every day. Coupled with advanced meditation techniques and Wu Changkong's guidance, his soul power also increased by one level, reaching level twelve.

"Teacher, who will Class 4 send to compete against us? Do you know any information?" Xie Xie asked Wu Changkong eagerly.

Wu Changkong coldly said, "If you need information to defeat a mere Class Four, do you even deserve to be my disciples? Next week's competition has only one task: crush them! Do you understand?"

"Yes!" the four answered in unison.
