Chapter 39 Encountering Three People, Plotting Against the Golden Dragon King's Origin
"Are they the two geniuses Teacher Wu was talking about? Gu Yue, how did you know?"
Xie Xie was slightly taken aback upon hearing this, then looked at the two people walking towards them, finally fixing his gaze on Jiang Xiu. His eyes narrowed and he slowly uttered four words.
"Overwhelmingly domineering!"
"Oh? You could tell that?"
Tang Wulin raised an eyebrow and asked in confusion.
"No, it's because I simply can't see through their cultivation levels. If I can't see through them, they must be strong."
"Since they're both here to ascend their spiritual power, we might run into them inside. Then we'll know whether they're truly the strongest among their peers, as Teacher Wu claims, or whether their strength justifies their status as the strongest among their age."
Xie Xie put his hands behind his back and gave his judgment in a serious tone.
"I see. But we should just focus on doing our best. True strength doesn't lie in what's ahead."
Tang Wulin said softly, but he didn't care too much, because he hadn't even broken through to the Great Soul Master level yet, so thinking too much was useless.
Moreover, Old Tang, who was in his spiritual sea, once told him that a fallen genius is not a genius, but a dead person.
"Gu Yue, you're here too."
Just as the two were discussing, Jiang Xiu and Na'er arrived in front of them. Looking at the familiar yet unfamiliar group of people, Jiang Xiu's eyes flickered slightly.
He never expected to run into these students from Class Zero of Donghai Academy today, and the boy with a resolute expression and surging blood and qi in his body was Tang Wulin.
"Yeah, long time no see."
Gu Yue stood up and smiled back at Jiang Xiu.
"We just saw each other yesterday."
Na'er pouted and positioned herself slightly in front of Jiang Xiu, her bright purple eyes fixed on Gu Yue.
Queen Na'er absolutely cannot allow Gu Yue any opportunity to take advantage of her!
Stealing someone's base? Absolutely not.
Tang Wulin and Xie Xie were both dumbfounded when they saw this. How come they didn't know when Gu Yue had met the genius that Teacher Wu had mentioned? Moreover, it seemed that Gu Yue and the silver-haired girl were filled with a strong sense of tension.
The two then exchanged a glance, ready to watch the drama unfold online.
"Xie Xie, didn't you just say you wanted to take on a challenge? Well, here you are."
Gu Yue smiled upon hearing this, shifting her gaze away from Na'er without lingering, and then spoke softly to Xie Xie, who was standing to the side with great interest.
She understood when she went back last time that she hadn't seen Na'er for several years, which was why Na'er, who was well-prepared, caught her off guard. But she wouldn't do that now.
She wanted to show Na'er through her actions that she couldn't protect anything.
"Oh? No, no! A friend of mine asked me to ask for him, yes, my friend..."
Seeing that the gossip had somehow landed on him, and noticing Jiang Xiu's gaze, Xie Xie quickly waved his hand to explain.
Jiang Xiu didn't pay any attention, his gaze only casually sweeping over Tang Wulin.
"The first layer of the seal on the Golden Dragon King's essence has indeed been broken. It seems the plan must be accelerated."
With his mind racing, Jiang Xiu thought to himself that Tang Wulin would break through the second seal before the Shrek Academy assessment. In the meantime, he had to extract the Golden Dragon King's essence from Tang Wulin's body as soon as possible.
He had already figured out a way to retrieve it, but before that, he had to completely destroy the divine consciousness left behind by Tang Shenwang within Tang Wulin's spiritual sea.
Only in this way can he go ahead and do it.
"It's time to make use of the Soul Beast Group, and also the future Soul Guidance Train Evil Soul Master incident; we must make good use of both."
Jiang Xiu went through the plan in his mind again, carefully considering every detail.
"However, Tang God King, you seem hesitant to make a move. But that makes sense, considering that Gu Yue, the Silver Dragon King, has always been by Tang Wulin's side, you must cherish your chance to act."
Seeing that Tang Wulin showed no signs of distress, Jiang Xiu's lips curled slightly, and he slowly unleashed his first and second soul skills, which were ready to be used.
This was also within his expectations. Moreover, Tang San had to save one last chance to trap the future Abyss Saint King and create an opportunity for Tang Hao to destroy him. Otherwise, not only would the grand plan of ten thousand years fail, but the entire Douluo plane would also disappear and be swallowed by the Abyss plane.
At this moment, Gu Yue, who was standing to the side, had a hint of sternness flash in his dark eyes, but after a moment of deliberation, he slowly and carefully put away a piece of seven-colored dragon scale in his hand.
Just now, she had once again sensed the fluctuations of Tang Wulin's divine sense, but this time he did not make a move.
"Although Xiong Jun is seriously injured, you must be feeling bad too, having been struck by the Emperor Tianlong's claws."
Gu Yue snorted coldly in her heart. Last time they made a move, although Xiong Jun almost died, Di Tian also retaliated.
The Dragon God Claw was an unparalleled weapon bestowed upon the Black Dragon Clan by the Dragon God, capable of injuring even the divine consciousness of gods.
"But what caused this reaction? Was it Jiang Xiu...? This is getting more and more interesting. It seems you're hiding some secret as well."
Gu Yue smiled and was about to look at Jiang Xiu when she found that Na'er had already shielded Jiang Xiu behind her like a model soldier.
"Gu Yue, I never imagined that you would be the one to teach me the second lesson of my life."
After noticing Jiang Xiu's gaze shift away, Xie Xie went to Gu Yue's side and said with a mixture of grief and indignation.
"What is the second lesson in life?"
Gu Yue raised an eyebrow, puzzled.
"Backstabbing!"
Xie Xie said with a bitter face.
"Little ones, come here. The riot period at the Spirit Ascension Platform has begun, so we need to hurry."
At this moment, the silver-white metal gate opened, and Liu, the deputy tower master whom Jiang Xiu had met yesterday, walked out with a kind smile and said.
Normally, he wouldn't need to show up for a regular ascension to the Spirit Ascension Platform, but since Jiang Xiu and Na'er were there this time, he took the initiative to come.
There's no other reason than that he desperately wanted to take it a step further!
Soon, the group entered the soul guidance chamber as instructed. Since none of them were first-timers in the spirit ascension process, they were all quite familiar with the procedure.
With a blink of an eye, Jiang Xiu entered the semi-virtual world of the Spirit Ascension Platform.
"The energy level at the Ascension Platform during the riots did indeed double."
Looking at the lush and verdant world before him, Jiang Xiu carefully sensed it, while in the forest ahead, the roars and sounds of fighting of soul beasts could be heard from time to time.
Because it's during the riot period at the Spirit Ascension Platform, many Soul Masters choose to enter during this time to try their luck in order to increase the age of their Soul Rings.
Jiang Xiu did not rush into the forest. Instead, he released the Dark Night Raven and let it circle above the forest to find out which area had the most soul beasts so that he could catch them all in one fell swoop.
Furthermore, he had to wait for Na'er. The Spirit Ascension Platform in the East Sea was slightly different from the Spirit Ascension Platform at the Spirit Pagoda headquarters. After entering here, Soul Masters would be assigned to different places.
But Na'er said she had a way to find him, so he wasn't in a hurry.
"Jiang Xiu, I'm coming!"
Before long, a voice as clear as a silver bell rang out, and Na'er's petite figure appeared, standing on a giant silver-white dragon.
