"Really? Thanks, boss!" Tang Wulin's eyes lit up.
His biggest fear before was not being in the same class as Chen Ye. Then he'd have to see Xie Xie acting like a sycophant.
His status as the number one underling could be snatched away.
Hearing his boss's words, Tang Wulin felt relieved.
After all, his soul power had reached Two Rings, he just hadn't attached a soul ring yet.
Thinking of soul rings, he became worried again.
"Boss, do you know anyone at the Spirit Transmission Tower? I want to go to the Spirit Transmission Tower, can you get me a discount?"
Tang Wulin's cheeks flushed as he spoke.
He was a proud person, but in his current state, he needed suitable soul rings to become stronger.
Chen Ye looked at him and nodded calmly, "First, attach a hundred-year soul spirit to your Clear Sky Hammer. When we have time, I'll take you to the Rising Spirit Platform."
"To raise the age of your two spirit souls to a thousand years."
"Boss, I..."
"Consider it a debt of 100,000. You can repay me when you have the money. Keep the money you have now for yourself."
"Don't argue, go to sleep. I'm exhausted!"
Chen Ye closed his eyes and stopped paying attention to Tang Wulin.
The next morning, after running 20 laps with a 500-jin weighted backpack.
Chen Ye reluctantly walked over and sat in front of Wu Changkong.
Wu Changkong glanced at the young man, his eyes serious, "Rest for 10 minutes, then we'll continue training."
"Teacher Wu, Tang Wulin awakened his Clear Sky Hammer. Can you let him join the Youth Class too? His soul power is already level 20."
"When did he awaken the Clear Sky Hammer?"
"He awakened it accidentally last night during dinner."
Chen Ye said casually, and Wu Changkong frowned.
He had never heard of such a situation. He never knew someone could awaken their martial soul again after a normal awakening.
However, he didn't say anything, just nodded, "Yes, I'll mention it to the dean later."
"As long as he can prove he has twin martial souls, he can definitely join our Zero Class."
The purpose of Zero Class was to cultivate geniuses for East Sea Academy. With the strength Tang Wulin had shown, joining Zero Class was more than enough.
After less than 10 minutes of rest, Chen Ye stood up and looked at Wu Changkong, a smile spreading across his face.
Seeing the young man's somewhat strange smile, Wu Changkong frowned. Without hesitation, his six soul rings appeared.
Immediately, his first soul ring lit up, and his long sword slashed down, spreading the power of ice.
Chen Ye suddenly reached out, and three black soul rings appeared on his body, exuding terrifying power.
Wu Changkong's eyes flashed, but before he could react, the scroll unfurled and flickered, condensing dozens of sword lights, and a bone-chilling frost spread.
Wu Changkong was stunned by the obvious frost, but his reaction was still quick.
Before dozens of frost sword intents could pierce him, he abruptly raised the Skyfrost Sword in his hand, and the same frost sword intent confronted it.
Wu Changkong's frost sword intent shattered, and he retreated, looking at Chen Ye with surprise.
"Frost sword intent, Skyfrost Sword, and how is your sword intent even higher than mine?!"
Wu Changkong's face was filled with disbelief, but his hands were not slow.
He slightly raised his hand, and several sword marks fell. At the same time, his fourth soul ring lit up: "Frost Language!"
The Skyfrost Sword suddenly transformed into a giant longsword and slashed down from mid-air. The commotion attracted the surrounding students.
Several pairs of eyes held curiosity, but only Zhang Ziyang's eyes flashed with disgust.
But before their expressions could change, a shocking scene appeared.
The scroll beside the young man rippled slightly. Chen Ye dodged to the side and casually flung the scroll outwards.
In the sky, an equally giant ice sword appeared, directly colliding with Wu Changkong's ice longsword.
This time, Wu Changkong's ice longsword directly shattered Chen Ye's ice longsword.
However, Chen Ye didn't seem to care as his ice longsword was shattered.
His current martial soul was in a very strange state.
After being contained within the Myriad Swords Diagram, the Skyfrost Sword hadn't learned any techniques, yet it directly simulated Wu Changkong's first three soul skills.
It was a very peculiar feeling, one that Chen Ye couldn't quite understand, but it was a good thing for him.
After all, this was a top student from Shrek, a future Extreme Douluo. His soul ring configuration, apart from the years, was absolutely top-notch in terms of effects.
Chen Ye reached into the scroll, drew out the Skyfrost Sword within, and then slashed forward fiercely.
Seeing the sword skill directly attacking him, Wu Changkong was completely stunned this time:
"This is my third soul skill, Skyfrost Slash. How did you do it? I didn't even get to unleash it."
The chill of the ice casually erased the Skyfrost Slash. Wu Changkong stopped his hand as well, looking at Chen Ye with surprise and uncertainty.
"This is the effect of my first martial soul. My first martial soul can simulate a longsword for each soul skill, and simulate a part of its effect."
"And after our previous encounters, I've managed to simulate most of your first three soul skills, Teacher Wu."
Chen Ye spoke very sincerely, though it was all a lie. But paired with the young man's serious face and earnest eyes, it seemed to silently proclaim that all of this was true.
Wu Changkong looked at the young man before him. Although he didn't believe a word of it, he still nodded. "How long can this simulation last?"
"Forever."
"Alright, then summon the Skyfrost Sword. I'll teach you swordsmanship techniques," Wu Changkong said decisively.
Chen Ye blinked and touched his head. "Teacher Wu, aren't you angry? This is equivalent to me plagiarizing your martial soul and soul skills."
"What's there to be angry about? You're my student. If you can truly simulate the Skyfrost Sword forever, it would be like you're helping me pass down the Skyfrost Sword."
Wu Changkong spoke calmly, but a hint of loneliness flashed in his eyes. After he accomplished his goal, he would kill himself to accompany his Bing'er.
Since Wu Changkong had said as much, Chen Ye didn't hesitate and directly produced the Skyfrost Sword.
Seeing that the other party could summon the Skyfrost Sword independently, Wu Changkong didn't say anything.
The main teaching content that followed became about the Skyfrost Sword.
This new martial soul Chen Ye had acquired was stronger than Wu Changkong's Skyfrost Sword in terms of effects and other aspects.
Perhaps it was because the Skyfrost Sword extracted by the Chronospace Diary was taken from Wu Changkong at the Extreme Douluo level.
The sword intent contained within the Skyfrost Sword was far stronger than Wu Changkong's own sword intent, which also benefited Wu Changkong greatly.
Especially when sensing the sword intent of the Skyfrost Sword, Wu Changkong looked at Chen Ye with complex emotions, but ultimately said nothing.
The afternoon passed quickly. Chen Ye took Tang Wulin and headed directly to the Forging Master Association, preparing to pay a visit to Mu Chen.
