Soul Fighting Exam
Several months have passed quietly, Heaven Dou Academy is about to usher in its annual holiday. However, before the holiday, they will have to take an assessment to verify their learning progress during the year at the academy.
The Soul Master assessment naturally doesn't test theory. After all, in this era, while theoretical knowledge has some value, it's not something every Soul Master needs. This is one of the reasons why the vast majority of Soul Master don't know that Yu Xiaogang's theories are plagiarized and still regard him as a clown.
After all, no matter how eloquent you are, able to turn black into white, you can't withstand the reality that your opponent can knock you into a bloody mist and send you to be reincarnated with a single punch.
The Soul Master assessment naturally takes place in the Soul Fighting Arena. As a student of the elite class, the Heaven Dou Class, at the Heaven Dou Academy, Lu Yang is also required to participate in this assessment.
He didn't care much about the assessment results. At this point, his Soul Power had reached level thirty-eight, far surpassing the other students in the class. Coupled with the powerful combat strength granted by the Sun God Martial Soul, he wasn't worried about failing the assessment at all.
However, while he didn't care about this assessment, some people in the class did. For example, Yu Tianheng valued this assessment very much.
He came to study at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy not only because of some exchanges of interests between the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Heaven Dou Empire, but also because of Dugu Yan. However, after Lu Yang enrolled, Dugu Yan was almost always with Lu Yang. Moreover, neither of them joined the Heaven Dou Team One led by Qin Ming, but instead joined the Heaven Dou Second Team, which made it impossible for Yu Tianheng to find an opportunity to get close to Dugu Yan.
This assessment presented Yu Tianheng with an opportunity. He planned to clash with Lu Yang during the assessment, teach Lu Yang a lesson, and make him stay away from Dugu Yan.
As for Lu Yang's higher Soul Power, Yu Tianheng didn't think much of it. He was a direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the number one Beast Martial Soul soul on the continent. With the domineering power of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, how could he not deal with a mere Soul Elder?
The day of the assessment arrived as scheduled, and Lu Yang, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling sat in the stands waiting.
The Heaven Dou Academy places great importance on the assessment of its elite classes. The three teaching committee members and all the Heaven Dou Grade teachers are in place, sitting on the podium and looking down at the Soul Fighting Arena.
The teachers in charge of the assessment registered the trainees one by one according to the list, and then let the trainees take turns to participate in the assessment.
Watching the battle on the Soul Fighting, Lu Yang yawned out of boredom, shook his head, and prepared to lean on Ye Lingling's shoulder for a nap.
"You brat, it seems like you don't take the assessment seriously at all!" Dugu Yan, who couldn't stand Lu Yang's attitude, immediately spoke up to tease him.
"Sister Yanzi, with Soul Fighting of this level, do you think they can beat me?" Lu Yang curled his lip.
"Hey, kid, don't let yourself get caught out, or Lingling and I will laugh at you for the rest of our lives!" Dugu Yan said.
"No, I won't laugh at Xiao Yang." Unexpectedly, Ye Lingling Lu Yang's other side blushed, but said something against Dugu Yan.
"No, Lingling, you're from that side!?" Dugu Yan stared wide-eyed at Ye Lingling in disbelief.
"Xiao Yang is my junior brother..." Ye Lingling said softly.
Hearing her say that, Lu Yang immediately laughed, "Sister Yanzi, my senior sister and I are from the same sect, you're the outsider!"
"So, you two, teaming up to bully me? Just you wait, once we're on the Soul Fighting Stage, I'll show you what I'm made of!" Dugu Yan said angrily.
"Lu Yang from Heaven Dou Class One vs. Yu Tianheng from Heaven Dou Class One!"
Just then, the teacher in charge of the assessment announced the names of Lu Yang and Yu Tianheng.
"Hmm? Yu Tianheng?" Lu Yang blinked, sat up straight, and looked around the stands before finally spotting Yu Tianheng sitting on the other side.
When their eyes met, Lu Yang clearly saw the hostility in Yu Tianheng's eyes. He scratched his head in confusion, not understanding where this kid's hostility came from.
But that doesn't matter. Yu Tianheng is a huge fan of Yu Xiaogang, and he'll get beaten up sooner or later anyway. Since that's the case, let's just give him a beating first.
A moment later, Lu Yang and Yu Tianheng stepped onto the Soul Fighting Platform. Standing facing each other, Yu Tianheng spoke first, "Yu Tianheng, Martial Soul Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, Level 36 Power Attack System Battle Soul Master!"
As soon as Yu Tianheng finished speaking, a murmur of discussion immediately arose in the stands. The reason was naturally because of Yu Tianheng's Soul Power Level. At his current age, he had cultivated to level thirty-eight, so his talent was beyond question.
"Lu Yang, Martial Soul: Winged Dragon of the Sun, Level 38 Power Attack System Battle Soul Master."
However, as soon as Lu Yang finished speaking, the discussions in the stands abruptly ceased. The students stared at Lu Yang in disbelief.
Even Qin Ming, sitting on the platform, looked at Lu Yang differently. He had always thought Lu Yang was just a rebellious troublemaker who thought himself exceptionally talented but refused to be disciplined, and he didn't think there was anything wrong with the other party not joining the Heaven Dou Team One. But when he heard Lu Yang announce his Soul Power Level, his face was full of disbelief.
"Kid, you and Yanzi are pretty close?"
Just as discussions were erupting in the stands, Yu Tianheng, who was in the Soul Fighting Arena, spoke first.
"Yeah, what's wrong?" Lu Yang asked in return.
"Dare to make a bet with me? The loser is not allowed to go near Yanzi again!" Yu Tianheng said in a deep voice, proposing the bet.
"Tsk, are all the people from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan out of their minds? What business is it of yours what I have with Sister Yanzi? You even dared to bet with me? Do you even deserve it?" Lu Yang said irritably.
He originally thought that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan producing Yu Xiaogang was already the greatest "luck" the sect had ever had in thousands of years. Now it seems that there might be some problems with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan from top to bottom, otherwise why would Yu Tianheng come up with such a brainless betting scheme?
Yu Tianheng, his face flushed red from Lu Yang's retort, was clearly speechless. Just then, the teacher announced loudly, "The assessment begins!"
"You bastard, how dare you insult the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan! I'll make you pay!" Upon hearing his teacher's words, Yu Tianheng immediately roared.
"Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Possession!"
"First Soul Skill, Thunder Dragon Claw!"
Yu Tianheng followed the usual style of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, unleashing his Soul Skill with wide, sweeping movements that appeared incredibly powerful. However, his actions were so exaggerated that he even exposed his center to Lu Yang when he attacked, causing Lu Yang to secretly shake his head in disbelief.
He used to lack practical combat skills, and his hand-to-hand combat was worse than that of a novice. But after arriving in Heaven Dou City, he was taught practical combat skills by Titled Douluo, which greatly made up for his shortcomings. Now, when facing Yu Tianheng, he will not only not be at a disadvantage, but will also have a considerable advantage.
