Tianhai Alliance Competition Approaches (Third Update)

"A normal appetite is no problem, of course. That kid Long Yuan could eat the academy's Class A Meal into poverty by himself!"

Long Yuan's appetite is well-known; Long Hengxu once witnessed it firsthand.

The amount of food they eat is absolutely terrifying.

"You've seen his strength stats and the Thousand-Year Soul Ring on his body, which is undoubtedly related to his appetite!"

"That makes sense!"

Long Hengxu continued, "I'll submit a report, but you must not disappoint the school leaders and you must nurture them well."

Next, the academy will likely send them to participate in the Tianhai Alliance Competition. Get ready and strive to bring some glory to the school.

Our current goal for you is either the Excellent Newcomer Award or the Excellent Newcomer Team Award!

"Good!"

Wu Zhangkong agreed without hesitation, thinking that this competition would be a good opportunity for Long Yuan and the others to go out and broaden their horizons and get some experience.

After a brief exchange, Long Hengxu quickly left.

"Come here, all of you!"

After watching Dean of Students Long Hengxu leave, Wu Changkong clapped his hands and called out to the group.

The five people quickly came to him.

Wu Zhangkong said to Tang Wulin, "Don't be discouraged. It's not because you're not strong, but because Long Yuan is just too strong."

Furthermore, you're not actually very familiar with your Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul yet; you need to practice more thoroughly. At the same time, don't leave any openings!

"Yes, Teacher Wu!"

Tang Wulin nodded; he could clearly feel his own progress.

After Blue Silver Emperor reached the level of a thousand years, he unleashed extraordinary control and combat power, which was his greatest improvement.

The teacher said that you should first compare yourself with yourself, and then compare yourself with others.

Compared to his previous self, Tang Wulin's progress has been tremendous.

Wu Zhangkong turned to Gu Yue and said, "You seem a little distracted, but you're improving rapidly. Keep up the good work!"

Then, he turned to Xie Xie and said:

"You'll have to work even harder to keep up with them."

Xie Xie's lips twitched. He wondered when Tang Wulin, the weakest among them, was about to surpass him. Clearly, from Wu Zhangkong's words, it was evident that the other party considered his progress to be the worst.

"You're eligible to stay for now. Remember, one month!"

Wu Zhangkong glanced at Xu Xiaoyan and said.

Finally, he looked at Long Yuan and said, "Although the opponent is not strong enough, you should not be careless. If you are confident, it is best to finish the battle quickly!"

Long Yuan fought Tang Wulin with such ease, as if he were strolling in a garden.

This underestimation of the enemy is not a good move.

They are easily taken advantage of.

"Alright, that's all for today. You're free to do whatever you want with the rest of the time!"

"We'll start joint training tomorrow, and I'll be your opponent. Three matches a day!"

"Yes!"

The five responded in unison, their faces showing excitement.

Today's classes are over, and I can have plenty of free time again.

"Tomorrow, I will use my Soul Skill!"

Then Wu Zhangkong said something else, and the group, who had been in high spirits, immediately became dejected again.

"Ugh, can you just say it all at once?"

"Exactly, isn't this a downer?"

The group was somewhat dissatisfied, and although Long Yuan knew this, he didn't like it much either.

My teacher from my past life was always such a disappointment.

However, it doesn't matter if I use my Soul Skill.

Wu Zhangkong's First Soul Skill is Frost Mark, and his Second Soul Skill is Frost Mist.

He and Gu Yue work well together and are capable of holding their own.

Is frost as strong as ice? Can it withstand fire?

Obviously not.

Because Tang Wulin had witnessed Wu Zhangkong using his Soul Skill during his vacation, he then explained the specific Soul Skill and precautions to everyone.

Afterwards, the two received Soul Guidance Communicator from Mu Chen and went to the Forging Masters Association.

"Teacher!"

Upon entering the Forging Masters Association and arriving at Mu Chen's office, the two bowed to Mu Chen.

"The main reason I called you here today is for the upcoming Tianhai Alliance Competition, a major event held every three years. I want you to broaden your horizons!"

After Mu Chen had the two sit down, he went straight to the point:

"The competition features contests among Mecha Master, Battle Armor Master, and Soul Master, as well as a series of competition categories including blacksmiths, Mecha Manufacturer, Mecha Designer, and Repair Master."

The different projects are divided according to age groups; you'll find out the specific groupings later.

I plan to have the two of you, along with Mu Xi, represent our Eastsea Forging Association in the forging competition for Youth Group under fifteen.

Upon hearing this news, Long Yuan didn't react much; this was a normal part of the plot.

Tang Wulin, on the other hand, was full of excitement. "Teacher, will I be competing in forging with young blacksmiths from other cities in this competition?"

Mu Chen nodded:

"Yes, Long Yuan has already reached the Fourth-Level Forging Master. My task for you is to bring the championship back to me!"

Wu Lin and Mu Xi must also achieve a good ranking.

The champion receives a prize of three million Federal Coins, and other places will also receive generous rewards.

"Leaving aside Long Yuan, if any of you wins the championship, the association will also reward you with ten different types of standard Rare Metal. This will save you some money when you try to become Fifth-Level Forging Master Spiritual Forging!"

The term "standard Rare Metal" refers to a metal that is one foot square.

"Okay, we'll do our best!"

Tang Wulin was filled with excitement and was already eager to try.

The champion has won a lot of money.

He glanced at Long Yuan and realized he was no match for him; the championship was out of his reach.

However, winning second or third place also comes with a monetary reward.

"Long Yuan, you don't seem very excited. Is it because of too much pressure, or because you're not interested in this competition?"

Mu Chen glanced at Long Yuan and noticed that Long Yuan's calmness was somewhat abnormal.

They also did not express any opinion.

"I understand the pressure. After all, this competition involves elite talents from at least five cities in the eastern coastal region. But you must have confidence. A ten-year-old Fourth-Level Forging Master is unprecedented."

"What? Fourth-Level Forging Master? Long Yuan, you..."

Upon hearing Mu Chen's words, Mu Xi was almost speechless with shock. When did Long Yuan pass the Fourth-Level Forging Master assessment? Her head was buzzing, and she couldn't believe it was all true.

"That's right, Long Yuan passed the Fourth-Level Forging Master assessment some time ago, so Mu Xi, and Tang Wulin, you all need to work even harder!"

At this point, Mu Chen's face showed approval.

Long Yuan's future achievements in forging are expected to surpass his, and may even reach the level of a ninth-level Heavenly Forging Master, which is also the level of Divine Craftsman.

"So, Long Yuan, it's not impossible for you to win the championship, don't feel pressured!"

"Teacher, I'm not under pressure. I was just thinking about how to completely dominate!"

Mu Chen originally wanted to comfort Long Yuan, but Long Yuan said something unexpected.

He swallowed the rest of his words.

This kid hasn't said a word; he's been thinking about how to crush his opponent.

This isn't fear, it's overconfidence.

"Don't let your guard down, and don't underestimate your enemy!"

Seeking stability, Mu Chen quickly reminded Long Yuan.

The subject matter is novel, give it a try!
