Tang San's gaze was no longer unfamiliar to Yu Xiaogang!

Though he said nothing, Yu Xiaogang could already guess what Tang San wanted to say.

"Didn't you say it was absolutely impossible for him to create a Soul Skill himself?"

"Didn't you say that after smashing his head bloody against the wall, he had finally faced reality and given up?"

"And now? Luo Fan's Self-Created Soul Skill really succeeded. What do you have to say?"

What could he say? How the hell was he supposed to know?

Yu Xiaogang himself was completely dumbfounded!

Everything else aside, but creating a Soul Skill required exceptional theoretical knowledge and a thorough understanding of one's own martial soul, didn't it?

But Luo Fan... what gave him the right?

This was far too absurd!

Something that should have been impossible from every conceivable angle had happened anyway!

"Next, Tang San..." At that moment, the examiner called out loudly.

Hearing that, Tang San took a deep breath and temporarily suppressed the frustration in his heart.

His opponent was a fifth-year senior, a level 12 Soul Master.

Perhaps unwilling to be outdone by Luo Fan, Tang San immediately used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track's high-speed movement technique, swiftly evading his opponent's attacks. At the same time, he darted behind his opponent and launched Blue Silver Entanglement from his blind spot.

After restraining his target, he kicked him flying and won the match just as cleanly.

Watching Tang San's fighting methods, quite a few people around them secretly marveled.

He had both the troublesome control of a control-type Soul Master and the speed of an agility attack-type Soul Master. Both of their strengths were gathered in one person. He was a genius too!

Listening to the surrounding discussions, Yu Xiaogang's lips curved slightly. He still found it quite satisfying!

Luo Fan was indeed outstanding, but Tang San, under his devoted instruction, was no weaker either.

But unfortunately, the one flaw was that Luo Fan stubbornly refused to take him as his master!

Otherwise, if both of them were his disciples, that would have been truly perfect.

The following matches proceeded one after another.

Xiao Wu likewise displayed the traits of an agility attack-type Soul Master. Even against higher-year seniors, she won cleanly and decisively!

After all, she was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form. With the experience accumulated over countless years, her grasp of timing in battle was naturally exquisite!

After several rounds of matches, Luo Fan, Tang San, and Xiao Wu had all thoroughly made names for themselves in the academy.

All the teachers and students acknowledged that this first-year class had produced three top-tier geniuses.

By the afternoon, after several rounds of matches, the top ten had more or less been decided.

The remaining matches were merely battles to determine rankings!

For example, Tang San had just defeated a sixth-year senior with Soul Power at level 17 using his own level 13 Soul Power, raising Tang San's reputation once again!

His nimble speed combined with control-type Soul Skills was like encountering an assassin with powerful crowd-control abilities in a game. He was simply too difficult to deal with.

And on Luo Fan's side? He had actually encountered Xiao Wu.

Although she knew she was no match for Luo Fan, Xiao Wu still fought him!

Along the way, Xiao Wu's exceptional agility and combat cleverness made her the first person to force Luo Fan to use Wood Clone in combination with his other abilities!

Against the opponents he had faced before, Luo Fan had not needed to use any Soul Skills at all. His own strength paired with Rasengan had been enough to handle them.

"All teachers and students, the exciting moment has arrived!"

"The next match will be the most thrilling one of this entire event!"

"Tang San versus Luo Fan!"

"I believe none of you expected that the final first place in this midterm assessment would be decided between two first-year freshmen!"

As dusk deepened and the setting sun glowed blood-red, the teacher presiding over the event spoke.

As he spoke, the teachers and students watching around them began discussing the matter animatedly.

Indeed, who could have imagined that all the higher-year seniors would be defeated, leaving first place to be decided between two first-year freshmen?

Hearing this, the fifth-year students—and especially the sixth-year seniors who had signed up—looked more or less embarrassed!

This was simply too humiliating!

However, comparatively speaking, most of the students were extremely excited!

Tang San and Luo Fan were both among the ranks of top geniuses. Who would prove superior in this match?

Stay composed. Don't laugh. Don't let a smug expression show. I need to look unfathomable!

Listening to the discussions around him, Yu Xiaogang tightly suppressed the corners of his mouth, which desperately wanted to curl upward. At the same time, he forced himself to think through every sad thing he could remember from his life!

His disciple, Xiao San, had now reached the final match of the midterm assessment. So what if he successfully took first place?

This was ultimately just a midterm examination at Nuoding Junior Soul Master Academy.

He needed to set his sights farther ahead. In the future, they had to strive for the championship of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Tournament. That was what truly carried weight!

And when Xiao San became a Titled Douluo in the future, only then would his life's ambitions be completely fulfilled!

So first place in some minor junior Soul Master Academy was nothing special!

When Xiao San won later, he could not appear too pleased. He had to maintain his expression.

He wanted everyone to know that, as the disciple of the continent's greatest theoretical master, getting first place was effortless for Xiao San. Easy~

Leaving aside how Yu Xiaogang was already fantasizing about how he would show off after Tang San won.

Over here, Luo Fan and Tang San stood facing each other.

As expected of the protagonist from the original story, the future God King. Even with Yu Xiaogang dragging him down, he still made it this far! Luo Fan silently remarked as he looked at Tang San.

"Luo Fan, although you successfully created a Soul Skill, in my opinion, you are destined to lose today!"

Tang San declared confidently to Luo Fan.

In his battle plan, Luo Fan's greatest weakness was his lack of long-range attacks.

That Soul Power sphere skill was indeed powerful, but it was useless if Luo Fan could not get close to him.

So the advantage was still mine!

"Mm, as expected of the master's disciple." Seeing Tang San's utterly confident appearance, Luo Fan pushed aside his thoughts and nodded slightly.

"Oh? So you acknowledge Teacher now?" Tang San's brows lifted slightly upon hearing that.

"No. What I mean is that the master's most outstanding trait is his utterly baseless, inexplicable confidence. The way you are now really is becoming more and more like him!" Luo Fan shook his head and corrected him.

Pfft!

Yu Xiaogang, who had originally been standing by the viewing platform, was extremely excited upon hearing Luo Fan's words, as though he had already seen Luo Fan becoming his disciple.

But when those words came out, they pierced straight through Yu Xiaogang's heart like an arrow.

It even seemed to twist viciously inside his chest!
