Chapter 2092: The Choice to Become a God (Please Subscribe)_1

Tang Wulin drew in a sharp breath, "Hiss... This level of forging, as well as the use of precious metals, certainly cannot be produced by ordinary forces. Most likely, it's a federation product!"

Apart from the red mechas of the Body Sect's Mu Ye, these were the most top-notch mechas he had ever seen!

Yue Zhengyu curiously asked, "Federation-produced black-grade mechas, huh... Those can't be bought with money, Teacher Xu. How on earth did you manage to get them?"

Gu Yue said with a complex expression, "Hmm, even the most top-tier mechas from the Spirit Pagoda are not comparable to these few black-grade mechas."

The gift couldn't be considered anything but significant!

Although Ye Xinglan was somewhat tempted, he still shook his head and said, "Teacher Xu, this is too precious. We can't accept it!"

After so many years of receiving such great favors from Teacher Xu, how could they have the audacity to accept mechas as well!

Xu Sheng said casually, "They're just a few mechas sent by the federation, nothing valuable. I can't use them anyway, so it's better to give them to you!"

It seemed that the federation did not try to fob him off with any defective goods!

Yue Zhengyu threw Ye Xinglan a look, "Teacher Xu has finally given us a gift, Xinglan. It would be disrespectful not to accept it!"

Ye Xinglan opened his mouth and finally nodded, "This... Then, thank you, Teacher Xu!"

His respect for Xu Sheng grew even more in his heart!

Xu Sheng looked at everyone eager to try and said, "Alright, you all go to the combat arena first to familiarize yourselves with the mechas' control methods. Wulin, stay behind, I have something to say to you!"

"Yes, Teacher Xu!"

Thus, the others left happily, leaving only Tang Wulin behind.

Xu Sheng's gaze rested calmly on him, "Elder Ya'li mentioned to me that you have something important to ask me?"

Tang Wulin's expression became serious, "Yes, Teacher Xu."

Xu Sheng crossed his arms, signaling for him to continue.

The former took a deep breath and uttered word by word, "Teacher Xu, if my goal is to ascend to godhood, what do you think are my chances?"

A hint of surprise crossed Xu Sheng's cheeks, "Ascension to godhood? You're only at the Soul Douluo level and you're already thinking so far ahead?"

Even if Tang Wulin were Tang San's son, aiming for godhood would not be simple!

Tang Wulin bowed his head and clenched his fists, "Because I have a compelling reason to ascend, doing so may allow me to see my mother again!"

Xu Sheng propped up his chin, pondering, "I see... Based on the current relationship between the Divine Realm and the Lower Realm, the chances are not great."

"However... there is another way you could ascend to godhood."

Tang Wulin immediately bowed deeply, pleading, "Teacher Xu, please tell me!"

Xu Sheng slightly smiled, "It's simple, by absorbing the power of the Silver Dragon King."

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin's eyes widened in disbelief, "Teacher Xu... you mean, you want me to kill... kill Gu Yue?"

Xu Sheng remained noncommittal, "Hmm, theoretically, if you absorb the Silver Dragon King's power inside Gu Yue, you could break through directly to God Rank."

Tang Wulin shook his head, his tone resolute, "No... No, although I have unavoidable reasons to ascend to godhood, Gu Yue is my closest companion. I could never lay a hand on him!"

He paused, then said through gritted teeth, "Teacher Xu, is there any other way?"

Xu Sheng blinked, "There is, but it's much more difficult. That would be to cultivate your own strength to the pinnacle of Soul Master cultivation and create your own Self-Created Divine Position."

Tang Wulin stared, "Create... my own godhood..."

Laying a hand on his shoulder, "Think it over carefully. With the blood of the Golden Dragon King in you, both methods are possible!"

...

Operating the black-grade mecha, Xie Xie, with flushed face and ears, exclaimed, "Holy crap, this is just too cool. With this mecha and our battle armor, our strength will improve by at least a whopping fifty percent!"

Ye Xinglan released her Martial Soul and then launched an attack on the former using her first soul skill...

Despite only the sound of a collision being heard, not even a single mark appeared, showcasing just how terrifying the black-grade mecha's defense was!

He couldn't help but sigh, "Such terrifying defense. If the Pavilion Master had one of these mechas back then, maybe he would have been only seriously injured and not have lost his life!"

Yue Zhengyu excitedly said, "Teacher Xu, you really gave us a priceless treasure!"

Xu Xiaoyan agreed, "Right, with this black-grade mecha, Lizhi and I won't be clueless when facing close-combat enemies!"

Yuanen Yehui looked down at his Two-Word Battle Armor, feeling regretful, "It's just that I don't know when we will be able to switch to a Three-Word Battle Armor. This Two-Word Battle Armor has almost no defensive capabilities against Soul Masters above the Soul Douluo level!"

Xie Xie laughed with ill intentions, "Ye Hui, what's so difficult about that? Once Wulin successfully gets the Eighth Grade Forging Master Badge, he will be able to forge Three-Word Battle Armors for us!"

"Although, relying on just him alone will be somewhat tough!"

Gu Yue looked down on him, "Xie Xie, are you treating Wulin as a tool?"

Xie Xie, caught out, coughed and replied, "Wha... What? It's just that since the Shrek Seven Monsters have such an amazing Forging Master, why bother finding someone else, right?"

Tang Wulin, who happened to overhear this conversation as he walked over, said with resignation, "Actually, I can already forge Three-Word Battle Armors now, but I don't have the suitable precious metals!"

Yue Zhengyu frowned, "Precious metals? Indeed, that's a bit problematic. Even our Angel Family can't take out that much these days!"

Yuanen Yehui sighed, "It's the same with our Yuanen Clan!"

Xu Xiaoyan muttered, "As for my family... there's even less need to speak of it..."

In the current tense situation, precious metals had massively surged in price and were not something ordinary Soul Masters could afford!

Xie Xie, with a face full of disappointment, said, "Then it seems, the Shrek team's replacement with Three-Word Battle Armors will have to be postponed..."

Gu Yue seemed to remember something and interrupted, "If it's just precious metals, Wulin, see if these are enough?"

After speaking, she handed them to Tang Wulin.

Tang Wulin, skeptical at first, examined them and was surprised, "There's so much precious metal! Gu Yue, you couldn't possibly have secretly taken them from the Spirit Pagoda..."

Gu Yue glared at him, unamused, "What are you thinking? These were given to us on behalf of the Douling Empire after we helped them eliminate evil Soul Masters!"

"I bet they're trying to broker ties with the academy through this."

Yue Zhengyu waved his hand dismissively, "Who cares about that, we helped the Douling Empire with such a troublesome matter, it's only fair to take some compensation!"

Xie Xie was thrilled, "The Douling Empire is quite sensible. With this, our Three-Word Battle Armor is back on track!"

Yuanen Yehui followed up, "Wulin, how long will it take for you to forge eight sets of Three-Word Battle Armors with your current forging capabilities?"

Tang Wulin pondered for a while and gave a fair answer, "It will take at least a year or even longer!"

Gu Yue shrugged, "I'll pass on that, my teacher has already prepared a Four-Word Battle Armor for me!"

As soon as she said this, she was met with envious and jealous stares from everyone...
