Upon learning the upcoming curriculum, the students in the class grew excited.
It had been two months since they last saw The Twins display their might! After the initial unpleasantness, as peers, they naturally felt a growing admiration for The Twins; talent and strength had always been the most valuable currency in the world of soul masters.
The Twins were beautiful, powerful, exceptionally gifted, and were the disciples of Sky-Piercing Douluo Yun Ming. Any one of these traits alone would be enough to earn them a legion of supporters.
Now that The Twins had finally emerged from seclusion and were going to teach them, the students were naturally thrilled.
Tang Wulin's gaze remained fixed on Yun Qianyue, so much so that even Gu Yue noticed it. She frowned and asked, "You seem to be staring at Yun Qianyue the whole time. Is there a problem?"
Tang Wulin shook his head, pondered for a moment, and said to Gu Yue, "I feel like she's different from how she was two months ago."
"In what way? Her appearance, or her strength?" Gu Yue's brows furrowed slightly as she pressed for an answer.
Tang Wulin couldn't quite put his finger on the feeling, so he could only attribute it to being overly sensitive after hearing so much about The Twins yesterday.
Listening to Tang Wulin, Gu Yue fell silent. Her focus was not on The Twins, but on Jiaojiao and Bajiao standing behind them! As the Master of Soul Beasts, she could identify the two as beast kings!
She just couldn't understand why beast kings would appear at Shrek Academy, let alone follow behind The Twins.
Bajiao frowned slightly. He sensed a gaze observing him and scanned the students in front, but the sensation vanished as quickly as it had appeared, leaving him unable to pinpoint the source.
After he mentioned this to Jiaojiao, she also carefully observed the people in the class.
With their strength, everyone's cultivation level was clearly visible, yet they could not find the person who had been watching them.
Gu Yue was still maintaining the appearance of a three-ring Soul Elder, a level of concealment that even Yun Ming could not see through, let alone these soul beasts. Seeing the two scanning their surroundings, Gu Yue kept her expression neutral, already planning to contact Di Tian to investigate.
Inside the training room, all the students stood in a circle around The Twins, arranged by their respective strength.
The Twins stood in the center and released their martial souls. As the powers of Taiyang and Taiyin permeated the room, everyone's expression turned solemn.
Even those at the front, such as four-ring Soul Ancestors Wu Sidu and Xu Yucheng, could not help but frown and feel a sense of suffocation when facing power that far exceeded the limits of extreme attributes.
What a terrifying aura!
Under the baptism of the dual forces of ice and fire, some students soon could not hold on.
Those who could no longer endure were pulled aside by Cai Yue'er, and their performance scores naturally suffered.
In the end, the only ones left standing were the four-ring Soul Ancestors like Wu Sidu and Tang Wulin's group!
Seeing the performance of these few, Cai Yue'er was slightly satisfied.
Watching them persist, The Twins gradually increased the output of their Taiyang and Taiyin powers, making the Golden Sun and Silver Moon even more brilliant! Bathed in this radiance, the students released their own martial souls to resist the terrifying pressure!
Wu Sidu and the others eventually reached their limit and withdrew from the assessment.
Only Tang Wulin and Gu Yue remained on the field! Xu Xiaoyan and Xie Xie had long since surrendered and withdrawn; the suppression of their martial soul attributes by The Twins was simply too powerful to resist.
The Bloodline Power of the Golden Dragon King surged within Tang Wulin, and the golden light he emitted resisted the Taiyang power of Yun Qianzhao.
There seemed to be a resonance between his soul power and Gu Yue's.
After a while, Cai Yue'er finally announced the end!
Tang Wulin let out a sigh of relief. Even with the help of the Golden Dragon King's Bloodline Power, resisting the strength of The Twins was still a struggle! After two months of seclusion, The Twins had become even more powerful!
However, Tang Wulin was not discouraged. He firmly believed that he could still catch up to, and perhaps even surpass, The Twins!
What drove him forward was an unyielding conviction!
"You two are very good; you haven't brought shame to your teachers!" Cai Yue'er said, nodding with satisfaction as she looked at Tang Wulin and Gu Yue.
Although Cai Yue'er had initially held some prejudices against Tang Wulin's group due to their delayed assessment, they had convinced her with their strength and talent over the past two months!
Especially Tang Wulin; after he truly demonstrated his level as a fifth-rank blacksmith, his image in Cai Yue'er's mind had completely changed!
"Thank you, Dean!" The two straightened their backs and thanked Cai Yue'er.
Cai Yue'er waved her hand and said, "Don't thank me; thank your homeroom teachers! They only just came out of seclusion and immediately came to teach you! Most teachers in the academy aren't this dedicated!"
Yun Qianyue quipped, "Elder Cai, please don't let the other teachers hear you say that, or there's no telling what they might say about us behind our backs."
Cai Yue'er smiled, "I'm not wrong, am I!"
Everyone thanked The Twins.
Although those who were eliminated early didn't get high scores, they had experienced such powerful martial soul attribute suppression, which was of great benefit to their understanding of their own martial souls. Regardless, The Twins had helped them.
After class, Tang Wulin found The Twins.
"Uncle Yun!"
The Twins turned their gaze toward Tang Wulin. Yun Qianzhao asked, "Is something the matter?"
"I am a blacksmith, and I have heard that you two have profound insights into forging. I was wondering if you could take a look at my work?" Tang Wulin explained his purpose.
The Twins found Tang Wulin's sudden invitation quite strange.
They weren't exactly close, were they?
Just as Tang Wulin approached them, Xu Xiaoyan and the others also gathered around, using the convenience of their relationship—being not just students and teachers, but also juniors to the "Uncle" generation—to strike up a conversation with The Twins.
Cai Yue'er was happy to see this.
The better the relationship between the new generation of Shrek Academy leaders, The Twins, and young geniuses like Tang Wulin, the more stable the future of the academy would be.
"Uncle, I have some questions regarding my cultivation that I would like to ask you—"
"Hey, hey, Uncle-Master Yun, could I ask for your contact information?"
Xu Xiaoyan and Xie Xie looked at The Twins with anticipation. The Twins instinctively turned their heads to look in the direction of Cai Yue'er, but upon seeing their gaze, Cai Yue'er immediately turned and left the classroom.
"I'm not used to adding contact information for people I'm not familiar with, sorry."
After thinking it over, Yun Qianyue refused Xie Xie first.
After being rejected by her, Xie Xie scratched his head. He wasn't embarrassed or discouraged, but instead said, "But we aren't outsiders! Look, you are the disciples of Heavenly Pillar Crown, and we are the grand-disciples of Crimson Dragon Crown! We're all one family."
