The practice field, Mu Ye took a deep breath, seriously saying, "Kid, are you ready? I won't be holding back now!"
The nine soul rings at his feet burst forth intensely, an overwhelming oppression rushing toward him...
Tang Wulin took a deep breath, his gaze fixed intensely on the former, "Come on, Senior Mu Ye!"
Visible to the naked eye, his pupils gradually took on a deep purple hue...
Tang Sect techniques, Purple Demon Eyes!
If he didn't use this move, he might fail to catch Mu Ye's movements, just like before!
As soon as he finished speaking, Mu Ye moved...
His legs pushed off, and it was as if his whole body had been fitted with a thruster, charging straight ahead...
Cold sweat beaded Tang Wulin's forehead, "So fast, but still within the range my eyes can track. Second Soul Skill, Bluesilver Impaling Array!"
As the second soul ring beneath his feet lit up...
In front of Mu Ye's path, suddenly hundreds of sharp Blue Silver Grass blades shot up from the ground...
Seeing this, Mu Ye's expression remained unchanged, he said dismissively, "Insignificant Skill!"
Then, without any hint of fear, he clenched his fists and smashed them down towards the soaring Blue Silver Grass...
With a "boom", the immense force created a huge crater in the ground...
Tang Wulin's eyes narrowed, "As expected, control-class Martial Souls have no effect on Senior Mu Ye."
To think that his Second Soul Skill actually had a paralyzing effect!
But the opponent showed no discomfort upon contact!
Mu Ye glanced at the crater, slightly annoyed, "Kid, stop with all these fanciful tricks, use that bloodline power within you!"
He preferred the sensation of direct combat over that of soul skill rivalry...
Tang Wulin did not refuse, "Yes, Senior Mu Ye!"
"First Vitality Soul Skill, Golden Dragon Body!"
As he activated the golden dragon bloodline within him, the first Vitality Soul Ring lit up...
In just a few seconds, every part of his body was enveloped in tough Dragon Scales...
But it wasn't over yet, he extended his hand and shouted, "Golden Dragon Spear! Come!"
A spear capable of piercing all things in the world solidified in his hands, he looked incredibly imposing!
Mu Ye, who had witnessed everything, exclaimed in surprise, "Good lad, you were hiding so much ability!"
Tang Wulin didn't disagree, a slight smile on his lips, "Senior Mu Ye, please forgive my offense!!"
Gripping the Golden Dragon Spear, he felt the fighting spirit within him being released without limit, and he confronted his opponent head-on...
Mu Ye bellowed, "Good coming!"
A fist collided with the Golden Dragon Spear, creating a fierce spray of sparks...
However, as another fist hammered out, Tang Wulin suddenly felt a pressure coming at him, and he was sent flying backward...
But this did not instill fear in him; on the contrary, his fighting spirit intensified...
"Fourth Spirit Blood Soul Skill, Golden Dragon Rage Domain!"
At this moment, all of his attributes were multiplied, pushing him close to the level of a Titled Douluo!!
Feeling his opponent's growing strength, Mu Ye's tone was fiery, "This kind of fight is what I'm talking about!!"
...
On the other side, things were not as intense!
Gu Yue sat down, hesitatingly saying, "Um, Teacher, aren't we going to wait for Wulin and Senior Mu Ye?"
Zhen Hua waved his hand dismissively, "Why wait for them? Mu Ye will definitely drag that kid Tang Wulin to the practice field for a sparring session!"
Gu Yue still seemed worried, "But, with Mu Ye being a Titled Douluo and the Sect Master of the Body Sect, I'm afraid that Wulin..."
After all, just one palm strike from Mu Ye had caused Tang Wulin to vomit blood...
Zhen Hua patiently reassured her, "My good disciple, you can rest assured, Mu Ye treats that little guy as if he were his own disciple; he won't go overboard with his strength!"
It was only upon hearing this that Gu Yue felt as if a weight had been lifted from her heart...
She stood up and poured a cup of tea for Zhen Hua, "I understand now, Teacher!"
Zhen Hua took the cup and sipped lightly, "Alright, it's been such a long time since we've seen each other, disciple. Can you tell me where you have been recently?"
However, deep down he couldn't be more pleased — after all, this was the first time Gu Yue had ever poured him tea!
Gu Yue sat back down and answered, "Teacher, actually I went with Wulin to the Blood God Army!"
Zhen Hua immediately set down the teacup, looking concerned, "What?? With the abyssal seal being broken last time, were you injured?"
Gu Yue shook her head, "I was with the logistics troops at the time and did not get injured."
Besides the Pagoda Master, it was this adoptive "teacher" who could make her feel the warmth of family...
Only then did Zhen Hua breathe a sigh of relief, "That's good. I really don't understand why that boy Wulin would take you to such a dangerous place..."
The next second, he suddenly stood up, his eyes flickering with a sharp light, "That's right, I almost forgot, I've prepared a surprise for you in advance!"
Seeing this, Gu Yue was about to stand up...
But Zhen Hua pressed her shoulders back down before she could, "Child, just sit and wait here, I will go and fetch it right away!"
Gazing into his kind eyes, Gu Yue found she was unable to refuse, "Okay... alright."
After leaving for several minutes, Zhen Hua returned!
However, this time, in his hands, he held a specially made storage soul tool, which was faintly discernible.
After sitting down again, Zhen Hua placed the storage soul tool on the table, "Child, this is the surprise I've prepared for you!"
Gu Yue couldn't help but ask curiously, "Teacher, what is this?"
Zhen Hua didn't answer, but instead revealed a mysterious smile...
His expression seemed to say, "Just take a look and you'll know."
Driven by curiosity, Gu Yue took the storage soul tool and used her Soul Power to probe inside...
But whatever she sensed made her face change dramatically...
She looked back at Zhen Hua in disbelief, "Teacher, could this be..."
Zhen Hua's somewhat aged cheeks flushed with pride, "That's right, taking advantage of your absence, I personally forged a Four-Word Battle Armor for you. You might not need it yet, but I believe it won't be long before you break through to become a Titled Douluo!"
A Four-Word Battle Armor forged by the sole Saint Craftsman of the Continent, its value was something far beyond any currency could measure!
Upon hearing this, Gu Yue's delicate body trembled and tears involuntarily spilled from the corners of her eyes...
She choked up, "Teacher, why are you so good to me? All these years, I have not fulfilled my duties as a disciple!"
Mu Ye had treated her with such sincerity, yet she could only deceive him with a human facade!
Zhen Hua hadn't expected such a reaction, and gently stroked her hair, speaking softly, "Silly child, why are you crying? Isn't it only right for a teacher to give a little gift to their disciple?"
"Besides, the fact that you became my disciple is already my great fortune!"
No longer able to hold back, Gu Yue lovingly embraced Zhen Hua...
"Teacher, I will make good use of this Four-Word Battle Armor!"
