Zero Class's First Spirit Ascension Platform Journey (Seeking Investment! Seeking Monthly Ticket! Seeking Recommendation Ticket!)

The next day, in the Zero Class classroom, Wu Zhangkong walked in and said, "Come with me."

The seven cadets immediately stood up and followed Wu Zhangkong out of the classroom toward the East Sea Spirit Transfer Pagoda.

At the East Sea Spirit Transfer Pagoda, Long Hengxu, the Intermediate Department's director of academic affairs, had been waiting for quite some time. When he saw Wu Zhangkong and the Zero Class cadets, he immediately stepped forward. "Teacher Wu."

"Director Long." Wu Zhangkong replied expressionlessly.

Jing Shaoyu and Xu Xiaoyan were already quite familiar with the East Sea Spirit Transfer Pagoda, so nothing particularly surprised them. The others, however, curiously looked around at the East Sea Pillar, one of the Spirit Transfer Pagoda's Eighteen Pillars.

Following Long Hengxu and Wu Zhangkong, they arrived at a Primary Spirit Ascension Platform control room underground. This control room was not the same one Jing Shaoyu had often used before, and it was somewhat larger by comparison.

As was customary, the staff first explained the precautions for the Spirit Ascension Platform before allowing everyone to enter their Landing Pods.

Jing Shaoyu calmly lay down inside his Landing Pod. He had gone through this process far too many times, so he did not feel the slightest discomfort or anything unusual.

A moment later, Jing Shaoyu appeared in a forest. Without hesitation, he released his Martial Soul and summoned Red Jade. At the same time, a flash of green glimmered in his eyes. He immediately picked a direction and began moving forward.

On the other side, after steadying herself, Xu Xiaoyan skillfully summoned her Martial Soul and Soul Spirit as well. She had her Soul Spirit scout ahead while she hugged her Star Wheel Ice Staff and carefully followed behind. Her face was full of vigilance and worry. Although she had entered the Spirit Ascension Platform many times, she still did not dare act alone. All she could do now was pray that she would find Jing Shaoyu soon.

After entering the Spirit Ascension Platform, Gu Yue looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar forest around her. A trace of resentment flashed deep in her eyes, then she began strolling through the forest expressionlessly. Her actions left both Long Hengxu and Wu Zhangkong, who were watching the surveillance feed outside, somewhat baffled.

"Is she taking a walk?" Long Hengxu asked uncertainly.

"Mm." Wu Zhangkong silently nodded, gaining a little more understanding of Gu Yue's personality.

The moment Zhang Yangzi appeared, he was stunned by his surroundings. His expression was full of surprise. This was a forest? What dense life energy! No wonder the Class Monitor could raise his Soul Ring to a thousand years. An environment like this was practically heaven-sent for him.

With that thought in mind, he immediately released his Martial Soul, summoned his Soul Spirit, and prepared himself to fight at any moment.

After thinking for a moment, Zhang Yangzi made a decision he would later regret deeply. He decided to fly into the air and use the height to scout the area. The black wings behind him flapped, carrying him to the top of a large tree. He landed on a branch near the top and stretched his neck out to survey his surroundings.

"Screech—"

Suddenly, a sharp, clear eagle cry rang out from afar. Immediately afterward, a large azure bird flew toward him from the distance. Its wings were drawn in as it assumed a hunting posture, diving straight at him.

Naturally, Zhang Yangzi refused to back down. The Second Soul Ring behind him immediately lit up, and his Second Soul Skill activated at once. He met the azure bird head-on, neither side willing to yield.

Unfortunately, that azure bird had a flock, while Zhang Yangzi was all alone. Before he could even react, his vision went black. Then, an irritated voice echoed by his ear.

"Get up!"

Zhang Yangzi sat up blankly, only to discover that he had already left the Spirit Ascension Platform and returned to reality. Once Long Hengxu told him what had happened, he was immediately filled with regret.

Wang Jinxi, Xie Xie, and Tang Wulin were fortunate enough to land in the same area, less than a hundred meters apart. When Tang Wulin sat cross-legged to cultivate the moment he landed, Wang Jinxi and Xie Xie had already met up. The two then traveled together toward Tang Wulin's location.

Before long, they saw Tang Wulin sitting cross-legged on the grass, cultivating. The two exchanged glances, unsure whether to say Tang Wulin was too carefree or simply courting death. He actually dared cultivate alone in a forest where Spirit Beasts roamed. Even inside the Spirit Ascension Platform, that was like carrying a lantern into a latrine—looking for death!

The two of them promptly called Tang Wulin awake.

"I'm telling you, Wulin, aren't you being way too careless?" Xie Xie said speechlessly. "Everyone else enters the Spirit Ascension Platform and immediately starts looking for Spirit Beasts. But you? You start cultivating first! What, were you planning to use yourself as bait?"

"No." Tang Wulin shook his head and explained, "I just suddenly gained some insight. Don't you think the environment in this Spirit Ascension Platform is exceptionally good?"

"Of course it is!" Wang Jinxi said. "I heard the forest in this Spirit Ascension Platform is exactly the same as the legendary Star Dou Great Forest!"

"Really?" Tang Wulin asked curiously.

"Hehe, I don't know either." Wang Jinxi scratched his head and laughed awkwardly.

"Enough, let's get moving first." Xie Xie rolled his eyes. "It wasn't easy getting in here. We can't leave empty-handed!"

"Mm-hm!" Tang Wulin and Wang Jinxi nodded in agreement. "Exactly!"

Thus, the three of them set off together.

"Chirp chirp chirp!"

Back on Jing Shaoyu's side, after he killed a Hundred-Year Purple Spirit Wolf, Red Jade flew back from the distance. As it devoured the Purple Spirit Wolf's Spirit Power, it chirped away to Jing Shaoyu about what it had discovered while scouting.

"You said you saw Bai Xue? Where?" Jing Shaoyu asked. Bai Xue was Xu Xiaoyan's Soul Spirit. If it was nearby, then Xu Xiaoyan should be nearby as well. They could not be too far apart.

"Chirp chirp~" Red Jade called out, then flew in a certain direction. Jing Shaoyu immediately followed.

Very soon, he found Xu Xiaoyan beneath a large tree, hugging her Star Wheel Ice Staff as she crouched on the ground and trembled. Not far away was a black snake more than ten meters long, flicking its scarlet tongue as it slowly slithered along.

"A Hundred-Year Black Snake?!" Jing Shaoyu froze, then revealed an expression caught between laughter and tears. This little girl was a bit too timid, wasn't she? A mere Hundred-Year Black Snake had scared her like this? He quickly stepped forward. With a thought, dozens of straight vine branches descended from above and tightly trapped the black snake inside a circular cage less than a meter in diameter. Then he shouted, "Xiao Yan, stop spacing out! Hurry up and control that black snake!"

"Ah~" Xu Xiaoyan let out a delighted cry and immediately stood up, about to run toward Jing Shaoyu. But then she remembered what he had said. Gathering her courage, she turned toward the black snake, raised her hand, and sent an Ice Wheel flying at it.

The Hundred-Year Black Snake had just instinctively crawled onto a branch when it ran headlong into Xu Xiaoyan's Ice Wheel. In an instant, both snake and branch were frozen solid. Then what greeted it was a scorching Fireball.

"Little Yu Brother, this is great!" Xu Xiaoyan ran to Jing Shaoyu's side and immediately hugged his arm. Her face was full of fear as she said weakly, "I hate those long, slippery things the most. If you hadn't come, I was ready to leave directly."

"You..." Jing Shaoyu helplessly poked Xu Xiaoyan's little head. "You're a Soul Grandmaster, yet you're still afraid of snakes?"

"I'm a girl. Isn't it perfectly normal for girls to be afraid of snakes?" she replied as if it were only natural.

What else could Jing Shaoyu say? He could only smile helplessly before taking Xu Xiaoyan with him as they continued onward.

Meanwhile, Gu Yue was still leisurely strolling through the forest.

After Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, and Wang Jinxi easily defeated three or four Spirit Beasts, they encountered a truly terrifying one—a Thousand-Year Man Faced Demon Spider! Almost the instant they met, Xie Xie was sent out of the Spirit Ascension Platform by the Thousand-Year Man Faced Demon Spider, leaving him with a deep psychological shadow.

Tang Wulin and Wang Jinxi, who remained, did not dare let down their guard in the slightest. Their gazes were fixed tightly on the Thousand-Year Man Faced Demon Spider.

Tang Wulin had already activated his Gold Dragon King Bloodline, transforming his right arm into a Gold Dragon Claw. Wang Jinxi had likewise undergone Martial Soul Possession, turning one arm into a thick, powerful Bone Dragon Claw.

Fighting alongside Tang Wulin for the first time, Wang Jinxi experienced for the first time the bloodline enhancement brought by the Gold Dragon King's aura. He felt his Martial Soul cheering and leaping with joy, while his own strength received a tremendous boost. Black dragon scales even appeared on his Bone Dragon Claw, leaving Wang Jinxi deeply intrigued and confused.

Why? Why could Tang Wulin's aura cause such enormous changes in his Martial Soul?

"Jinxi, watch out!"

While Wang Jinxi was lost in thought, he suddenly heard Tang Wulin's anxious shout. He instinctively looked up, only to see a bewitchingly pale woman's face right before him. Then an incomparably foul stench rushed into his nose. Immediately afterward, his entire body went numb. His eyes closed, and he lost consciousness.

"Aaaah!" Tang Wulin was furious beyond measure. Watching his two companions "die" before his eyes had already driven him to lose his reason. He charged at the Thousand-Year Man Faced Demon Spider, poured all his strength into his attack, and slammed his Gold Dragon Claw viciously into its back.

The Man Faced Demon Spider let out a miserable shriek. Its body then trembled violently as a mass of sticky white spider silk erupted forth, instantly sending Tang Wulin flying. He smashed hard into a large tree, and the spider then lunged fiercely toward him.

At that critical moment, Tang Wulin suddenly vanished.

The staff outside had forcibly removed him in time.
