"Boss."

"Did I hear that right?"

"You want me to slash Wulin?"

Xie Xie asked, looking somewhat bewildered.

Tang Wulin was equally full of question marks. Reason told him his brother would never do anything to harm him, but...

Was this really right?

"Luochuan, why are you doing this?"

Wu Changkong was equally baffled. Telling a teammate to strike his own little brother hard—were you really his biological older brother?!

"Just do it, Xie Xie."

"Nothing will happen."

Tang Luochuan shook his head with a faint smile.

In the Original Work, Wulin had been fine even when his first soul ring was white and his Dragon bloodline had not been activated. Now that he had grown stronger, there was even less chance of him being hurt.

There was also a reason he had asked Xie Xie to attack Wulin. It had been Xie Xie in the Original Work, so there naturally would not be a problem doing the same thing now.

On the other hand, if he wanted to activate the bloodline within Wulin's body, he guessed that a Martial Soul containing Dragon aura or bloodline was needed to trigger his bloodline's protective response.

Only Xie Xie's dagger was truly suitable. In other words, it was not powerful enough to injure him, yet it could activate that protective mechanism.

"..."

Beside them, Gu Yue's eyes held a thoughtful look, though she was also somewhat confused. She could naturally tell that Xie Xie's Martial Soul contained a trace of Dragon aura, but stabbing Tang Wulin...

What was the point?

Could it trigger the awakening of the Second Martial Soul in his body and make it protect him on its own?

It was not impossible, but it still felt absurd.

"Xie Xie, go ahead."

"Big Brother definitely won't hurt me."

Tang Wulin quickly calmed down. He might not trust anyone else, but he would never fail to trust his own brother.

"Alright."

Xie Xie realized that as well. He immediately stopped hesitating, summoned his Light Dragon Dagger Martial Soul, and thrust sharply toward Tang Wulin.

"Wulin."

"I'll go easy on you..."

"Holy crap."

Xie Xie had barely started to speak when his Martial Soul pierced Tang Wulin's arm. The next moment, golden light erupted, and his Martial Soul was instantly knocked away.

It was simply sent flying.

As the golden light faded from Tang Wulin's slender arm, layers of golden scales appeared, eventually covering his entire arm.

Behind him, accompanied by a dragon's roar, a Golden Dragon phantom emerged.

"Holy crap..."

"That worked too..."

Xie Xie stared blankly at the scene before him, his gaze fixed on the dragon shadow behind Tang Wulin as he could not help saying.

The boss had never told him...

That his Martial Soul could serve such a purpose!

Was this the unawakened Second Martial Soul Teacher Wu had mentioned inside Wulin's body? It looked ridiculously domineering!

"This..."

"Is this the Giant Dragon inside my body?"

Tang Wulin looked equally astonished. Then excitement filled his eyes as he spoke. The Golden Giant Dragon within him had actually awakened under such circumstances?

His brother's idea had worked far too well!

"This is my..."

"Second Martial Soul?"

After waving the arm that now possessed vastly greater strength, Tang Wulin could not help muttering.

His strength was now at least three times what it had been before. With that kind of improvement, his forging efficiency would rise immensely.

And this powerful strength would finally allow him to cast off the label of a useless Blue Silver Grass Soul Master and become an Assault Type Soul Master.

"..."

Watching this scene and sensing the True Dragon aura emerging from his younger brother's body, Tang Luochuan fell silent for a moment.

This was undoubtedly the Golden Dragon bloodline.

Although the gap between it and the Golden Dragon King was practically impossible to bridge, aside from the Golden Dragon King, it would be hard to find an opponent for it anywhere on the continent.

The only thing he found hard to process was... Wulin's bloodline really needed to be unlocked through a specific method, huh?

If the protective mechanism was not triggered, it would not unlock, huh?

"I never expected it."

"The Golden Dragon Martial Soul could be activated like this?"

Gu Yue fell into thought. Luochuan's strange little idea was truly far ahead of its time.

"A Second Martial Soul."

"It awakened just like that..."

Beside them, Wu Changkong's pupils widened. He nearly thought he had seen wrong. He had thought about it for a long time, yet never imagined that a postnatal Martial Soul awakening—something that had never appeared on the continent...

Would awaken just like that.

"What Martial Soul is this..."

Even their teacher reacted that way, let alone Zhang Yangzi, Wang Jinxi, and Wei Xiaofeng. No matter how vast the world was, they had never seen anything like this.

"This is the Golden Dragon."

"It is hailed as one of the strongest among True Dragons, though it cannot compare to Luochuan's Golden Dragon King."

Gu Yue slowly explained.

"The Golden Dragon? The legendary Golden Dragon?"

Hearing the answer, everyone could not help feeling deeply moved. This was a Martial Soul that existed only in legend. It was said that Ice Soul Douluo's wife possessed part of the Golden Dragon bloodline.

"Wulin, how do you feel?"

"Can this Second Martial Soul operate normally?"

At that moment, Wu Changkong could not suppress his curiosity any longer. This situation had truly overturned everything he knew.

"Hm?"

"It can."

Tang Wulin gave it a try. He could freely switch between his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul and the Golden Dragon, and he immediately answered with a smile.

Golden Dragon—was that the name of his Martial Soul...

A Second Martial Soul!

Though his Martial Soul was only Blue Silver Grass, he now had a Second Martial Soul. From now on, Blue Silver Grass would no longer prevent him from displaying much of his talent.

He could also make full use of his powerful vitality through his Dragon martial soul, grow stronger and greater in forging, and create new glories.

Golden Dragon...

Was that truly the name of his Martial Soul?

"Then that couldn't be better. Congratulations, Wulin."

Only then did Wu Changkong nod. Though he did not know the exact principle behind it, a good result was all that mattered.

After all, there would always be things in this world that could not be explained, just like Tang Wulin's extraordinary talent.

"With a Second Martial Soul, your advantages in battle will greatly increase. You will become a true Assault Type Soul Master. Once we return, train properly."

"Yes, Teacher Wu."

"..."

"Big Brother, it's all thanks to you."

"You even awakened the Martial Soul inside me."

After leaving the office, Tang Wulin looked toward his brother and said sincerely.

Without him, Tang Wulin could never have imagined, even in his dreams, that the dragon had truly become his Martial Soul. What he had imagined even less was that his Second Martial Soul would appear in such a way.

"It was just a sudden idea..."

"But the result was clearly good."

Tang Luochuan shook his head and spoke slowly. The person who had truly made all this happen was not him, but Xie Xie.

"Of course it's good. It's unbelievably good."

"Brother, shall we go eat together later? Xie Xie, everyone else, and I were planning to go out today..."

"Luochuan, we're going out to eat today."

"Right?"

Before Tang Wulin could finish, Gu Yue suddenly poked her head out and stood in front of him, her expression serious.

This time, it was not that she did not want Luochuan to go. Rather, she had already made plans with him back when class had just begun.

This time, she had gotten there first.

"Mm..."

"How could that not count?"

After considering it for a moment, Tang Luochuan nodded.

There was nothing to say this time. The Little Silver Dragon King had indeed become more polite, at least making arrangements in advance now.

"Wulin, as you can see, I already made plans with Gu Yue this time, so I can't go with you all..."

"It's fine, it's fine. Brother, just go out with Sister Gu Yue."

"Don't let me affect you two."

Tang Wulin hurriedly shook his head.

He absolutely could not let something as trivial as eating with him interfere with his brother's date with Sister Gu Yue!

"Then we won't disturb you and Sister Gu Yue."

"Yeah, yeah."

"Boss, we're leaving."

After Tang Wulin spoke, Xie Xie, Zhang Yangzi, and the others nodded in agreement, vanishing one after another.

Disturbing the boss during something like this...

They would never do that in their lives.
