Tang Wulin's Burst of Potential

On the academy's training grounds, the dozen or so students in the Soul Master class stood in a line.

Standing above them was Lin Ximeng, who had changed into sportswear and was wearing a baseball cap.

At only twenty-five years old, she was already naturally beautiful, and after changing into her sportswear, she looked even more youthful and vibrant; other teachers passing by couldn't help but steal a few glances in her direction.

"The rules for the physical fitness test are simple. Just run around this track until you are exhausted. This includes, but is not limited to, using your martial souls or anything else."

After all, this was only a primary academy, so the training would certainly not be too harsh, which was why the chosen method was so simple.

Upon hearing this, the students present began to rub their hands together, eager to start.

Qiangu Wuji, however, found it somewhat boring. To put it bluntly, this kind of physical test was just a competition of Soul Power.

In a primary class where the average age was under seven, everyone was just a child with similar physical fitness; in such a situation, the level of one's Soul Power often determined the final result.

Therefore, there was no doubt that the final result would be either him or Gu Yue taking first place. Both of them possessed Innate Full Soul Power, so there was no reason they would lose to a bunch of kids who didn't even have soul rings yet.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but look at Tang Wulin in the crowd.

If there was anyone present who could threaten him, it would only be the one who inherited the Golden Dragon King bloodline.

However, on second thought, the Golden Dragon King bloodline within Tang Wulin had not yet been awakened, so he had no qualifications to threaten him.

With that thought in mind, he felt no pressure at all.

Soon, the long-distance run began. The dozen or so students in the class displayed a wide variety of martial souls: sickles, daggers, hammers, and the like, along with rabbits, and even musical instruments appeared.

In any case, none of them were suited for athletics.

Qiangu Wuji's martial soul was quite special; even if he displayed it, others couldn't see it, only the eye-catching yellow soul ring on his body.

This immediately made him stand out from the crowd. In the current Soul Master class, he was the only one with a soul ring. Although Gu Yue also had Innate Full Soul Power, she hadn't attached a soul ring to herself yet.

Thus, once they started running, Qiangu Wuji naturally took the lead, leaving everyone far behind.

As the long-distance run approached the fifteen-minute mark, students began to drop out one after another.

When half an hour had passed, seventy percent of the participants had essentially been eliminated.

Out of the eighteen students in the Soul Master class, only seven remained.

Among those left, besides Qiangu Wuji and Gu Yue, the rest were basically those with higher Soul Power levels in the class, averaging above level six.

What surprised Qiangu Wuji was that Tang Wulin, who only had level three Soul Power, was actually among them.

Soon, the students outside the track noticed Tang Wulin still persisting, and discussions broke out.

"Is that Tang Wulin? Why is he still going? I remember his Soul Power is only level three, right?"

"Yeah, I've seen his martial soul before. It's a trash martial soul, Blue Silver Grass. How is his physical fitness so good?"

Lin Ximeng also noticed the situation, a hint of surprise appearing on her pretty face.

Conversely, Tang Wulin at this moment acted as if he hadn't heard the discussions outside, still gritting his teeth and keeping pace in the middle of the pack.

Qiangu Wuji frowned as he looked at him, feeling very puzzled.

This shouldn't be happening. At this stage, Tang Wulin shouldn't have such good physical stamina.

Could it be that the Golden Dragon King cheat had arrived early?

Another half hour passed, and by now, those students who were still holding on earlier had completely reached their limits.

Only he, Gu Yue, and Tang Wulin remained on the field.

Gu Yue was already panting heavily by this point, but looking at Tang Wulin, he still appeared to have energy to spare.

At this moment, he even picked up his speed to catch up to the two of them. As he passed by Gu Yue, he said something dejectedly, though his motive was unclear.

"Gu Yue, although my Soul Power can't compare to yours, if we're talking about physical fitness, I'm not that bad."

Gu Yue didn't speak, only gritting her teeth tightly; clearly, she knew that Tang Wulin's words were in response to what she had said yesterday.

"With your strength, you can't help him with anything."

Qiangu Wuji didn't know what had happened between the two, but looking at Tang Wulin's demeanor, he couldn't help but ask tentatively.

"Wulin, your stamina is really good. Did you start training in this area when you were a child?"

"I didn't really train," Tang Wulin shook his head. With a flicker in his eyes, he continued to shake his head and said, "Maybe it's just that I'm naturally better at this."

Qiangu Wuji had the passive mental perception of the Heavenly Six Eyes and immediately sensed a clear fluctuation in his spirit when he said this.

He was definitely lying.

It seemed that when he went back yesterday, something must have happened to him.

This made his mood turn heavy, and he felt the pressure.

This guy's Golden Dragon King cheat had clearly arrived early. Once he officially awakened, it meant the plot would accelerate.

It also meant that the day the Qiangu family would face a reckoning was not far off.

There wasn't much time left for him; he had to become stronger than him by that time.

"Qiangu, I've always wanted to become a Soul Master, but my talent isn't good enough," Tang Wulin spoke again while Qiangu Wuji was lost in these thoughts, his tone filled with melancholy.

Speaking of this, his gaze became somewhat fervent.

"Classmate Qiangu, can you spar with me? I want to see the gap between us."

Qiangu Wuji looked at him calmly, then suddenly smiled indifferently.

"Sure."

Tang Wulin was the type who wouldn't easily admit defeat, but wasn't he the same?

For a moment, their gazes collided, sparking intense friction.

Gu Yue watched from the side, her brows furrowed tightly, her gaze shifting imperceptibly toward Tang Wulin with a hint of annoyance in her eyes.

After running for a while longer, she took the initiative to stop, leaving the stage to the two of them.

Thus, the final showdown became one between Qiangu Wuji and Tang Wulin.

The students watching from outside the field were in an uproar, with discussions rising one after another.

"I never expected it to end up being Tang Wulin and Qiangu Wuji. Was he actually this strong all along?"

"Do you think Classmate Qiangu will lose to him too?"

"How is that possible? Classmate Qiangu has Innate Full Soul Power! Plus, he's the only one in our class who already has a soul ring."

"Right, Classmate Qiangu definitely won't lose to him!"

Outside the field, voices rose and fell; the students were stirred up by the unexpected result, each of them watching with rapt attention.
