The other students' eyes widened in shock, murmuring, "No way, am I hallucinating? This Tang Wulin's Bluesilver Grass Martial Soul actually has two thousand-year soul rings. How can he withstand such power?"
"Shh... this guy named Tang Wulin is really something! No wonder he could enter Shrek Academy at only Level Twenty-Four!"
"Pfft, what of two thousand-year soul rings? You should know that the gap between Martial Souls cannot be simply bridged by soul rings!"
"I bet this guy used some unseemly methods to forcibly absorb a Thousand-Year Spirit Soul!"
Despite the mockery, the envy in their words could hardly be concealed...
Wei Xiaofeng pumped himself up and said, "Tang Wulin, beat him up quick, make that guy pay for being so full of himself just now!"
Wang Jinxi smacked his lips and commented, "Tsk tsk tsk, every time I see this guy's soul rings, it makes me think his luck is just heaven-defying!"
Gu Yue, unusually, nodded in agreement, "Mhm, Soul Masters who could absorb thousand-year soul rings as a 2nd Ring Grand Soul Master are truly few and far between!"
Lin Dan's eyes chilled as he said coldly, "So what if you have two thousand-year soul rings? Bluesilver Grass is still Bluesilver Grass, trash will always be trash!"
Even though his opponent's Soul Ring Configuration was stronger than his own, he didn't believe he would lose in the slightest!
Tang Wulin's light blue eyes shimmered, "Let's just see the truth in battle then."
As he finished speaking, his first soul ring lit up instantly...
First Soul Skill, Coiling!
In an instant, countless strands of Bluesilver Grass shot up from the ground, sweeping towards Lin Dan...
Seeing this, Lin Dan concentrated Soul Power in his right hand and threw a punch towards it...
With a "Boom!!!" the impact forced him back two steps, and the Bluesilver Grass that was struck only showed a few signs of cracking...
Again, it came sweeping towards him with an overwhelming force...
Lin Dan's expression became much graver, the Bluesilver Grass in front of him was tougher than he had imagined!
But that's all it was!
"First Soul Skill, Ice Emperor's Protection!!"
The Ice Emperor Scorpion behind him emitted a piercing hiss, "Sss~~"
Immediately after, his body abruptly erupted with a burst of deep blue biting cold, which rapidly enveloped his surroundings, and in an instant, formed a solid ice crystal armor...
When the Bluesilver Grass touched the ice crystal armor, they were instantly corroded by the cold, forcefully solidifying...
Seeing this, Lin Dan threw another punch and shouted angrily, "Break apart!!!"
With a "Crack!", the Bluesilver Grass shattered into ice fragments and disappeared...
Having dealt with the obstruction, he set his sights on Tang Wulin and charged without hesitation...
Watching Lin Dan charge straight at him, Tang Wulin narrowed his eyes and said, "Humph! A contest of brute strength? I'm certainly not afraid of you!"
The next second, he also threw a punch without any mercy, colliding with Lin Dan's ice crystal-covered fist...
Teacher Xu inwardly thought upon seeing this scene, "Tang Wulin's brute strength should be stronger than the other party, and that chill, if it were to seep into his body, would be instantly dissolved by the Golden Dragon King's bloodline!"
So you see, this duel is completely one-sided domination...
As Lin Dan saw Tang Wulin intent on clashing head-on, a cruel smile crept onto his face, "You're seeking death! You actually dare to directly touch my ice crystal armor!!"
But when their fists really hit each other, his expression abruptly changed...
The ice crystal armor covering his fists shattered under this terrifying attack, followed by a surge of even more ferocious tremendous force...
Unable to resist, he was blasted dozens of meters away and smashed into the wall...
The bone-chilling pain made him involuntarily look towards Tang Wulin, his heart filled with confusion, "How could this be... how could this be, clearly it's the Bluesilver Grass Martial Soul, yet his close-combat abilities are even stronger than mine!"
And, did his fist really not sustain any injuries?
Meanwhile, Tang Wulin felt a stinging pain in his fist and couldn't help frowning...
The next second, the warm flow from the Golden Dragon King's bloodline within him instantly released, directly dispelling the chill that had invaded his body...
Only then did he look towards Lin Dan, saying coldly, "Do you still want to fight? You're no match for me!"
Feeling insulted, Lin Dan clenched his fists and said with a huff, "Hmph! It was just luck that you won one move, don't get cocky over there!"
This scene made Gu Yue and the others burst into laughter...
Wei Xiaofeng teased, saying, "Pfft! I guess Wulin was holding back, otherwise that punch just now would have been enough to shatter his arm!"
Zhang Yangzi chimed in, "Losing the duel is one thing, but losing character as well, I don't think this guy deserves to stay in our class!"
Xie Xie said coldly, "Didn't he say that if he lost, we could do as we pleased with him? Just right, let him roll out of our class! I want to see if he has the face to go back on his word!"
As for the other students, the scene before them left quite an impression on their minds!
Even Lin Dan, with his top-tier Beast Soul, was defeated by Tang Wulin with his Bluesilver Grass Martial Soul. If it were them, wouldn't the results be even worse?
Xu Sheng saw that the atmosphere was off and stopped it with a smile, "The duel ends here. Lin Dan, you certainly know in your heart whether or not you can defeat Tang Wulin. If you are not convinced, then work hard and defeat him in the next duel!"
"At that time, even if you declare in front of the whole class that Bluesilver Grass is a garbage Martial Soul, no one will object, understand?"
Upon hearing this, Lin Dan froze, then gratitude appeared in his eyes...
He was arrogant but not foolish, he naturally knew that Xu Sheng was giving him a way out...
He nodded slightly, "Yes, Teacher Xu! I understand!"
Then, he approached Tang Wulin with open candor, "I lost this time, I can't leave the class as that was the condition, but for the rest, I agree to your terms!"
Xu Sheng then turned his gaze towards Tang Wulin, asking, "Tang Wulin, have you decided what you'd like Lin Dan to do?"
Tang Wulin paused, to be honest, he really hadn't thought about this question...
He simply wanted to prove his strength was worthy of entering Shrek Academy!
After careful consideration, an idea that was neither too simple nor too excessive came to mind...
He immediately spoke up, "Alright, then from now on you have to call me Boss!"
Lin Dan was taken aback upon hearing this...
"What? Call you Boss???"
Seeing his reaction, Tang Wulin shrugged indifferently, "Lin Dan, you're not thinking of going back on your word, are you? If that's the case, then forget I said anything!"
Lin Dan's face grew a few shades uglier, but he steeled himself, "Call... call it is! Next time I defeat you, I'll make you call me Boss!"
Tang Wulin blinked his pale blue eyes, expectantly saying, "Well... say it once to let me hear?"
It seemed like Lin Dan had to muster all his strength to say through gritted teeth, "Boss... Boss... Boss!"
Tang Wulin nodded, "Not bad, keep working hard!"
