Sweep

Ye Yingluo clapped her hands, her gaze sweeping over the whole class. "This lesson has two goals. First, to show your own strength. Everyone, go all out. I'll protect you. Second, to choose Class 1's class monitor based on strength. The strongest takes the seat."

Ye Yingluo saw that Lin Xingyu and Wei Xiaofeng were both ready, then swung down her right hand. "Begin!"

Wei Xiaofeng instantly charged at Lin Xingyu, two yellow Soul Rings appearing around him.

Two yellow Soul Rings also appeared around Lin Xingyu, and his First Soul Ring lit up.

Lin Xingyu's Electromagnetic Field characteristics clearly scanned out Wei Xiaofeng's figure.

When an Agility Attack System Soul Master lost his speed and concealment and faced an Assault System Soul Master head-on, did the result even need to be said?

To put it plainly, Wei Xiaofeng charged in, and Wei Xiaofeng was one-shot by a punch.

Ye Yingluo understood Lin Xingyu's fighting style. It was a rare Force Field Soul Skill, combining control, assault, and scouting in one, and it had directly one-shot Wei Xiaofeng.

Ye Yingluo was worthy of being a five-ring Soul King. In a single battle, she had figured out the Soul Skills and fighting style Lin Xingyu had revealed. But she never could have imagined that Lin Xingyu, this "sneaky bastard," was still hiding quite a few trump cards.

With Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi's Martial Soul Fusion Skill added in, they would definitely be invincible in the Promotion Tournament three months later!

Maybe in the future, I can train Lin Xingyu to be even more outstanding. When the time comes, I'll make him far surpass Wu Changkong and trample that guy hard underfoot!

Thinking this, Ye Yingluo could not help a faint smile from appearing at the corners of her mouth. Her body leaned forward slightly as she stared straight at Lin Xingyu, her gaze burning and filled with expectation.

Very quickly, Ye Yingluo withdrew her gaze and said loudly, "First match, Lin Xingyu versus Wei Xiaofeng. Lin Xingyu wins."

"Lin Xingyu advances. Next match, Wu Lang versus Zhang Yangzi." After saying this, Ye Yingluo looked toward the others.

Wu Lang walked out with a bitter smile. For him, a Soul Master, to fight a Soul Grandmaster, there really was not much hope.

Very soon, the second round began.

"Second round, Lin Xingyu versus Zhang Yangzi. The two of you, come onto the stage and get ready. Only start when I say start. Understood?"

"Understood, Teacher Ye," Lin Xingyu replied with a smile.

"Understood," Zhang Yangzi replied as well.

"Begin!"

The battle erupted in an instant. Strange light shimmered around Lin Xingyu as he completed Martial Soul Possession in a flash. Zhang Yangzi refused to show weakness, Soul Power surging around him, followed immediately by a high-pitched eagle cry bursting from his mouth. In the blink of an eye, a nimble little eagle landed steadily on his shoulder, while his hands also transformed into sharp eagle talons, gleaming with a cold, piercing light. A pair of eagle wings slowly spread behind him, black halos flowing over them, giving him an imposing presence.

Zhang Yangzi's eyes sharpened. Soul Power churned around him, and his First Soul Ring instantly lit up. Deep, dark energy surged like a raging tide, enveloping both him and Lin Xingyu completely in the blink of an eye. Even the light around them was swallowed by that darkness.

Lin Xingyu's expression beneath his visor turned strange. Zhang Yangzi's Soul Skill was equivalent to a weakened domain and could make people lose their perception, but he had Magnetic Field Control. Whether he could see or not made no difference. This skill had no effect on him at all.

Lin Xingyu thought for a moment, then still decided to show his opponent some respect. His Second Soul Ring lit up, and one Glazed Fire after another rose, aiming at Zhang Yangzi in the sky before smashing straight toward him.

Zhang Yangzi sensed Lin Xingyu's attack on him and was startled. The other side had a scouting-type ability! Darkness Curtain had limited effect on him!

Zhang Yangzi immediately released his Second Soul Skill as well, Shadow Clone!

A black shadow instantly flew out from his body, pouncing straight toward Lin Xingyu! At the same time, Lin Xingyu's fireballs smashed over one after another, instantly igniting the Shadow Clone!

Then the remaining fireballs chased Zhang Yangzi all over the place, until he ultimately had no choice but to concede.

There was nothing much to say about the third round. Lin Xingyu's opponent was a Soul Master, and he simply went up and one-shot him with a punch and a Force Field Impact.

In the end, only three people remained: Lin Xingyu, Wang Jinxi, and one Soul Master. Lin Xingyu drew a bye, and Wang Jinxi won as expected.

After resting for more than half an hour, both sides had mostly recovered their Soul Power, and so the final duel between Lin Xingyu and Wang Jinxi arrived.

"Final match, Lin Xingyu versus Wang Jinxi. Both of you, come onto the stage!" Ye Yingluo said.

The two sides went onto the stage and stood facing each other. The usually silent Wang Jinxi suddenly said, "You're very strong. Both of us should be Assault System. I hope to have a head-on duel with you!"

"Sure! I won't let you down," Lin Xingyu replied with a natural smile.

"Begin!"

At Ye Yingluo's order, Wang Jinxi instantly entered Martial Soul Possession, and the First Soul Ring beneath his feet lit up as well, dazzling and brilliant.

Just now, Lin Xingyu had shown his strength by easily eliminating Wei Xiaofeng and Zhang Yangzi. He was definitely no ordinary person. Wang Jinxi did not dare be careless in the slightest, Soul Power surging violently around him as he prepared for battle with full seriousness.

Soul Power surged around Wang Jinxi, and his body suddenly grew larger. His bones stretched, making him look exactly like a giant skeleton.

Black aura spilled from his body in streams, while his right hand transformed into a huge four-fingered Bone Dragon Claw!

He charged straight at Lin Xingyu!

The two Soul Rings around Lin Xingyu lit up at the same time. Since he had said they would fight with full strength, he naturally had to give Wang Jinxi a satisfying one. The Fire Element in the air rapidly gathered toward Lin Xingyu. This time, the Fire Element did not condense into various fireballs around him, but instead directly covered his body.

Lin Xingyu swung out his right fist to meet Wang Jinxi's huge Bone Dragon Claw.

Wang Jinxi's First Soul Skill was called Bone Dragon Claw. It possessed darkness and poison attributes, as well as a boost to strength. Lin Xingyu's right fist was augmented with Glazed True Fire, which had the effect of burning life by clinging to strength and feeding on momentum.

Bang!

When the attacks from both sides collided, the result was not a deadlock. Instead, Wang Jinxi was sent flying by Lin Xingyu's punch!

Several thousand kilograms of strength stacked with Soul Power after Martial Soul Possession—did he look like he was joking?

Whether it was the other students watching from the side or Ye Yingluo, all of them stared blankly.

Previously, when they saw Lin Xingyu eliminate Wei Xiaofeng with one punch, they knew his strength was astonishing, but directly smashing Wang Jinxi flying was far too exaggerated.

Wang Jinxi was an Assault System Battle Soul Master! And one who specialized in strength at that!

Lin Xingyu looked at Wang Jinxi, who had been sent flying, and directly used the momentum to charge up!

Lin Xingyu rushed straight to Wang Jinxi's side and smashed his right leg down at Wang Jinxi, who was just preparing to get up. At that moment, Wang Jinxi's figure seemed to become illusory. His Second Soul Skill—Bone Soul Conversion. It could let Wang Jinxi transform into a Spirit Body and become immune to all physical damage. It was somewhat similar to the famous Phasing Soul Skill, but Phasing could not only grant immunity to physical damage, it could also grant a certain degree of immunity to energy damage.

In that instant, flames directly ignited on Lin Xingyu's right leg. Weren't you immune to physical damage? Then I'd use magic damage.

He directly ignored the Spirit Body state and smashed Wang Jinxi into the ground, then pressed forward and pinned Wang Jinxi firmly to the floor.

Wang Jinxi struggled twice and found that he truly could not break free from Lin Xingyu on top of him, so he helplessly chose to concede.

Ye Yingluo announced Lin Xingyu's victory and naturally made him the class monitor of Class 1 Grade 1. This time, no one objected. The only one who had objected before, Wei Xiaofeng, had had his genius dream shattered by Lin Xingyu's punch and was currently full of gloom.

Ye Yingluo glanced at the time, clapped her hands, and announced, "That's all for today. Same as usual tomorrow: theory in the morning, practical combat in the afternoon. Lin Xingyu, remember to collect the homework for me. Class dismissed!"

After the crowd dispersed, Lin Xingyu found a secluded corner, closed his eyes, stood still, and circulated his breathing method. His qi and blood instantly boiled. When he inhaled, it was like a whale swallowing a hundred rivers, drawing in Heaven and Earth Origin Energy. When he exhaled, it was like a silkworm spitting fine threads, expelling turbid qi. With every cycle, his body grew warmer, and his strength also quietly increased, accumulating confidence for the road ahead.

When Lin Xingyu ended his Martial Path Cultivation and headed to the cafeteria, there were not many people in the cafeteria anymore. He familiarly made his way to the Grade A Meal window, bought six portions, and began wolfing them down. The food was chewed to pieces and swallowed the instant it entered his mouth. Grade A Meal tasted good and was rich in nutrition. After entering his stomach, it turned into a warm current that quickly replenished his body's expenditure.

After eating, Lin Xingyu returned to the dormitory, took out a theory book from his Storage Soul Device and read for two hours, then went to bed to meditate.

In class the next day, Lin Xingyu collected the homework amid the students' sighs and groans.

As for his own cultivation path, Lin Xingyu naturally chose the Assault System. Turning all tactics into assault was not just something said for fun.

Of Tang San, known as a Control System master, and Huo Yuhao, which one of them did not focus mainly on assault in the later stages?

All that could be said was that this was the meta answer.
