"Thank you, Brother Tao. I will work hard."

Hearing Zhao Tao's words, Tang Wulin nodded vigorously.

He silently vowed in his heart that he must cultivate well and absolutely could not drag Brother Tao down or let down Brother Tao's hopes.

"Hmph!"

Hearing the conversation between Zhao Tao and Tang Wulin, Xie Xie, who was standing nearby, let out a cold snort, his tone filled with disdain.

"What, why the hmph? Xie Xie, do you look down on people's ambitions like this, or are you gloating?"

"I advise you not to celebrate too early..."

"Just now, I forgot to mention, you, along with those few others, go report to Class Five!"

Hearing Xie Xie's cold snort, Long Hengxu turned his head and glanced at Xie Xie before speaking.

"Director Long, this... this is unfair! I didn't participate in the fight! This is not fair!"

Hearing Long Hengxu's words, Xie Xie, who had been aloof and silent, finally argued with some urgency.

"You were in the same dormitory as them. You saw Zhou Changxi bullying new classmates, and not only did you not actively stop it or notify a teacher, but you stood by and watched, thinking you'd see a good show."

"So young, yet so calculating. How will you turn out when you grow up?"

"I'm sending you to Class Five to temper yourself. I hope you can understand my good intentions!"

Hearing Xie Xie's complaint, Long Hengxu slightly raised his voice, a hint of anger in his tone.

"Director Long, this is malicious punishment! I'm not convinced!"

Upon hearing this, Xie Xie raised his head defiantly, looking directly into Long Hengxu's eyes!

"Not convinced? Fine, then withdraw from East Sea Academy yourself!"

"This is not your Xie family!"

"If you want to study here, you must abide by the rules of East Sea Academy!"

Looking at Xie Xie's unconvinced expression, Long Hengxu showed no signs of backing down, continuing sternly.

"Alright, if it's Class Five, then it's Class Five."

"I don't believe that a mere Shallow Beach can trap a true dragon!"

Seeing this, Xie Xie said in a petulant tone.

"Very well, I'll be watching. You can go now. Remember, this is the last time!"

After arranging for Zhao Tao and the other three, Long Hengxu also sent them away.

"Xie Xie, this genius with Innate Full Soul Power, and Zhao Tao, this freak who possesses Spirit Connection Realm Spiritual Power at such a young age..."

"When they meet Wu Changkong, I really don't know what kind of sparks they will ignite?"

"I hope my arrangements today are correct, that they can fully stimulate their potential and help them grow into pillars of East Sea Academy!"

Gazing at the backs of the four, Long Hengxu's eyes were deep as he pondered inwardly.

It was clear that his "punishment" for Zhao Tao and Xie Xie was also intentional.

On the other side.

"Zhao Tao, it's all your fault! I have to go to the worst class, Class Five."

"If you have the guts, come with me to the academy's Soul Fighting Arena. I want to duel you!"

After leaving the Academic Affairs Office, Xie Xie glared at Zhao Tao.

It was obvious.

The anger in his heart had made Xie Xie overlook the fact that Zhao Tao possessed a Thousand-Year Soul Skill.

"Duel me? You're not worthy!"

"However, my little brother Tang Wulin is interested in soul fighting with you."

"If you want to challenge me, you have to beat my little brother first!"

Looking at the furious Xie Xie, Zhao Tao returned all the words he had previously said to Tang Wulin.

"That's right, if you want to challenge Brother Tao, you have to get past me, Tang Wulin, first."

"If you're not a coward, then have a good spar with me!"

Upon hearing Zhao Tao's words, Tang Wulin stepped forward, blocking Zhao Tao. His big eyes were filled with determination and stubbornness.

"Okay, a spar it is. Am I afraid of you?"

Seemingly provoked by Tang Wulin's words, Xie Xie stared at Tang Wulin and accepted his challenge.

"Then follow me!"

With that, Tang Wulin pulled Xie Xie along and headed towards the Soul Fighting Arena within East Sea Academy.

Soon.

East Sea Academy, on the Soul Fighting Arena.

"Tang Wulin, Level Eleven Soul Master, Martial Soul: Blue Silver Grass!"

Looking at Xie Xie in the distance, Tang Wulin summoned his Blue Silver Grass martial soul, the white Soul Ring behind him flashing.

"Xie Xie, Level Seventeen Soul Master, Martial Soul: Light Dragon Dagger!"

Looking at Tang Wulin in the distance, a hint of disdain flashed in Xie Xie's eyes. He raised his head and began his self-introduction.

As Xie Xie's voice fell, a golden radiance flashed in his hand, transforming into a Golden Dagger.

At the same time, a yellow Hundred-Year Soul Ring rose around Xie Xie, forming a stark contrast with the white Ten-Year Soul Ring on Tang Wulin.

After all, Xie Xie was the Young Master of the Xie Family in East Sea. His family's financial resources were far beyond those of commoners like Tang Wulin.

A Hundred-Year Spirit Soul costing one million Federal Coins was just a drop in the bucket for the Xie family.

Because of this, Xie Xie's face was filled with contempt for Tang Wulin, whose martial soul was Blue Silver Grass and whose first Soul Ring had only a ten-year cultivation.

"Tang Wulin, with your Level Eleven Soul Master cultivation and the weakest martial soul, Blue Silver Grass, don't humiliate yourself here."

"Just obediently let Zhao Tao come out to fight me. It'll save me time and save you from humiliation!"

Looking at Tang Wulin in the distance, Xie Xie's voice was filled with impatience. Clearly, he felt Tang Wulin was not worthy of being his opponent.

"You city folk, don't bully people too much!"

Hearing Xie Xie's words, Tang Wulin, who already harbored resentment towards Xie Xie's arrogance, could no longer suppress the anger in his heart.

As Tang Wulin roared, the Soul Power within him surged, the white Soul Ring behind him flashed, and strands of Blue Silver Grass vines shot through the air, sweeping towards Xie Xie.

"Hmph, a mere trick!"

Looking at Tang Wulin's attack, Xie Xie waved his Light Dragon Dagger, slashing at the Blue Silver Grass that was coiling around him from all directions.

However, the next moment, the confident smile on Xie Xie's face froze!

Although Xie Xie's reaction was fast and his attacks were precise, and his Light Dragon Dagger hit every strand of Blue Silver Grass around him, those Blue Silver Grass vines were surprisingly tough. They weren't cut, only partially deflected. More Blue Silver Grass vines continued to surge forward, binding Xie Xie tightly.

"Not good!"

Facing this predicament, Xie Xie inwardly cursed, quickly channeling his Soul Power and activating his Soul Skill to cut the Blue Silver Grass.

However, at this moment, Tang Wulin had already lunged forward and punched Xie Xie hard in the stomach.

In an instant, under the immense strength of Tang Wulin—which surpassed his peers and even rivaled that of a Battle Soul MasterXie Xie's body was sent flying backward, sliding nearly ten meters across the ground before finally coming to a stop.

With this blow, Xie Xie, an Agility Attack System Soul Master whose defense was inherently a weakness, was completely overwhelmed. Not only could he not counterattack, but he even had difficulty standing up.

Just then, Tang Wulin also lunged forward, reaching Xie Xie and pinning him down!
