"The final round of the Class Promotion Tournament has ended. The final results will be announced at the school assembly the day after tomorrow. Please look forward to it."

After the competition ended, Director of Studies Long Hengxu said the same thing.

As he spoke, he quickly left. The people he cared about were none other than Xie Xie, Wang Jinxi, and Zhang Yangzi, who had been sent away after losing consciousness.

"Wu Lin, Gu Yue, let's go together."

As the homeroom teacher, Wu Zhangkong naturally had no reason to be absent. He immediately called for his other two students and followed in the direction Long Hengxu had gone.

"I have a feeling."

"Their injuries aren't ordinary."

Wu Zhangkong's sixth sense sent him that message, making him frown slightly as a bad feeling rose within him.

Thinking of this, he quickened his pace and instantly shot far ahead of Tang Wulin and Gu Yue. Even Long Hengxu, who had been in front, was left far behind.

Long Hengxu: "..."

Did he, the Director of Studies, not deserve any dignity?

"Teacher Wu clearly cares a lot about us."

Looking at the situation before him, how could Tang Wulin fail to see Wu Zhangkong's urgency? He could not help but smile to himself. Although the man was a cold and aloof male god, he still could not remain completely rational when his outstanding students were injured.

"Wu Lin, Teacher Wu is moving so fast. Let's speed up and catch up to him."

At that moment, Gu Yue looked at him and pointed toward Wu Zhangkong, whose back could barely be seen in the distance, before speaking softly.

As she spoke, a comfortable and light wind element instantly emerged from her palm, silently enveloping both of them.

"You're the professional, after all."

Faced with this situation, Tang Wulin chuckled to himself.

"Of course."

Gu Yue smiled in satisfaction and agreed. Though she was unwilling to admit it, his praise seemed to work exceptionally well on her.

Just as she was feeling happy over Tang Wulin's words, in the next moment, Tang Wulin's speed increased severalfold almost instantly before her eyes, and he shot far ahead of her.

"Gu Yue, thanks for the wind-element speed boost. I'll go on ahead."

Tang Wulin smiled and waved at her as he spoke.

After saying that, he sped away again, widening the distance between them even further and leaving her deep in thought.

"If I remember correctly."

"I'm supposed to be the one favored by the wind element, right?"

Gu Yue silently gritted her teeth. Her mood was clearly far from pleasant as she spoke, and she hurried after him as quickly as she could.

Not only did she use the wind element, but she also activated the spatial element. She clearly wanted to catch up to him, but how could he possibly fail to think of what she had thought of...

In the end, she could only follow behind him in great frustration. Her earlier happiness had vanished completely, and she occasionally pursed her lips to express her displeasure.

However, someone nearby was in an even worse mood than she was. That person was Long Hengxu, who had been thoroughly left behind by Wu Zhangkong. At that moment, Tang Wulin's acceleration had once again made him fall even farther behind.

"Director Long."

"It seemed like someone just zoomed past again. Shouldn't you go a little faster?"

A teacher following beside Long Hengxu could not help but ask.

Long Hengxu: "..." *2

Did he, the dignified Director of Studies, not deserve any dignity?!

"Teacher, how is Xie Xie?"

Not long afterward, in Donghai Academy's infirmary, Tang Wulin saw Wu Zhangkong, whose expression was slightly strange, and asked slowly.

"Hm? Wu Lin, you don't need to worry about that. Xie Xie is fine. He only broke an arm."

Hearing his question, Wu Zhangkong immediately shook his head. He looked toward Xie Xie, who was lying quietly on the bed and appeared incredibly peaceful, as he spoke.

"..."

Tang Wulin fell silent for a moment after hearing Wu Zhangkong's words.

A broken arm? That was about what he had expected. After all, the original story's Xie Xie had broken an arm too. It seemed he still could not escape it.

However, Wu Zhangkong's earlier words truly left him speechless.

From that tone, anyone who did not know better might have thought it was something completely ordinary. But... you called that fine?

Who said someone was fine after they broke an arm?!

"Teacher Wu."

"How are those two students from earlier?"

At that moment, Long Hengxu, who had arrived late, looked at Wu Zhangkong and asked slowly.

"Hm, about that..."

"One has a fractured torso, and the other broke both legs."

Upon hearing this, Wu Zhangkong answered truthfully. However, even he could not quite keep himself composed at that moment.

It was obvious from Xie Xie's fractures that Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yangzi's Martial Soul Fusion Technique was incredibly powerful. Yet even the two of them had been fractured by a single claw strike from Tang Wulin.

"Never mind having their Martial Soul Fusion Technique broken apart. You even directly inflicted such severe fractures on them while they were in Martial Soul Possession..."

"Wu Lin, your strength is truly unbelievable."

Wu Zhangkong looked in Tang Wulin's direction and could not help but say so.

"It was just Martial Soul suppression."

"It's nothing."

Tang Wulin merely smiled lightly, a faint smile on his face as he spoke.

"Just Martial Soul suppression..."

"You really make it sound easy."

Hearing Tang Wulin's words, Wu Zhangkong did not know whether to laugh or cry. Martial Soul suppression would have been one thing if it were some ordinary suppression, but he had suppressed the Bone Dragon King!

That alone was already an astonishing matter, all right?!

"..."

"Fuck????"

Unlike the teacher and student, who were conversing with remarkable calmness, Long Hengxu could no longer keep himself together.

A fractured torso, and both legs broken...

He truly had not expected a small Class Promotion Tournament to result in such a huge incident. This was extremely serious!

If their families came looking for answers, how was he supposed to explain this?!

"Teacher Wu."

"What should we do?"

For a moment, he could no longer care about his identity as the dignified Director of Studies. He looked toward Wu Zhangkong and asked.

Under such circumstances, he clearly hoped that Wu Zhangkong, whose strength far surpassed his own, could offer some good advice.

"It's nothing serious."

"They aren't very strong, so they're not difficult to heal. Finding a Healing-type Soul Master at the level of an Upper Soul Ancestor should be enough."

Wu Zhangkong's expression remained calm as he spoke.

Just as he had said, although their injuries were severe, none of them were fatal. Furthermore, their strength was still low, so treating them would not be too difficult.

"It can only be like this..."

Long Hengxu sighed upon hearing that and could only agree.

"Teacher, I want to give it a try."

Just then, Tang Wulin stepped forward and spoke.

"You want to try?"

Hearing this, both Long Hengxu and Wu Zhangkong could not help but freeze for a moment.

They admitted that Tang Wulin was very strong, but what use would trying himself be now? Was he planning to... fight poison with poison?

"Wu Lin's first Martial Soul is the Blue Silver Emperor."

"Could he..."

Only Gu Yue seemed to have vaguely thought of something. Looking at him, she could not help but murmur.

"Martial Soul Possession—"

"Second Soul Skill, Spring Breeze Brings New Life."

Tang Wulin smiled faintly. In the next moment, a Blue Silver Emperor instantly appeared in his palm.

As his second Soul Ring shone brilliantly, strands of Blue Silver Emperor filled with ultimate life silently connected to the injured patients led by Xie Xie.

[Spring Breeze Brings New Life, the Blue Silver Emperor's second Soul Skill. It provides massive recovery to anyone weaker than its user. As long as they still have a breath left, they can be easily healed.]

In just an instant, Xie Xie, who had been unconscious with his brows tightly furrowed, relaxed completely. His broken arm fused back together at once.

"What's going on?"

"Brother Lin, Teacher Wu, I feel so warm all over..."

Xie Xie groggily opened his eyes and looked toward Tang Wulin and Wu Zhangkong as he spoke slowly. At that moment, there was not the slightest sign of discomfort anywhere on his body.

"This..."

Seeing this scene, Wu Zhangkong was stunned. It was as though he had forgotten Tang Wulin's former claim of being a "Support-type Soul Master." It seemed that he really was one!

"Fuck."

Meanwhile, Long Hengxu, the Director of Studies, was completely bewildered. He knew that Tang Wulin's first Martial Soul was the Blue Silver Emperor, but he had never expected him to be a Support-type Soul Master!

Earlier, he had inflicted such tremendous damage that he had fractured the people using a Martial Soul Fusion Technique, and now he was saying he was a Support-type Soul Master?

"What's wrong..."

"Why are you looking at me?"

Faced with the gazes of Wu Zhangkong and Long Hengxu, Tang Wulin merely smiled lightly and shrugged, looking completely calm.

He was merely a passing Support-type Soul Master.

Tang Wulin: "I'm just a passing Life Goddess Soul Master. Listen up!"
