Xu Yucheng was completely unaware that the emotions he displayed today had made Tang Wulin worry about him . He had no clue about the "cultivation" he would have to face in a spar with Tang Wulin…
"Wulin, let's spar for a bit . " Wu Zhangkong suddenly made a suggestion .
"Huh?" Tang Wulin looked at him with surprise .
"Follow me . " Wu Zhangkong did not even give him a chance to talk . He brought him out of his room .
They quickly arrived at a wide hall under Wu Zhangkong's lead . There were already a dozen students sparring with each other inside, simulating actual combat .
Among what Tang Wulin had seen, this was the largest area of the refugee shelter . It had a diameter of about two hundred meters and the ceiling was around thirty meters above their heads . The ceiling was curved in a perfect dome and it was clear that it was manmade . To be able to build such a space hundreds of meters under the ground, the price and time they had to pour into this were imaginable .
Yet, Shrek Academy did it . Tang Wulin was secretly awed . At the same time, he thought about the saying where the wily hare had three holes to his burrow . Even if they rebuilt Shrek in the future, they would have to make preparations in many aspects . They could not gather everything in Shrek City just as they had done before this .
Tang Sect also had their headquarters destroyed . They had experienced a great disaster and suffered a heavy blow . However, the destruction they faced was not as utter as Shrek Academy . They still had their branches in the Star Luo Empire . At the very least, it was enough to ensure the normal operations of Tang Sect . Even Tang Wulin was unsure how great a force Tang Sect possessed, let alone the outside forces .
With twenty thousand years of accumulation, Tang Sect's inner secrets were deep and profound . Although those forces had wanted to uproot Tang Sect at the same time, nobody dared to make the first move . This was an intimidating effect that could only have been the result of sufficient strength .
Shrek Academy was in much worse shape . In the end, it all came down to the academy being too simplistic . Everything was gathered in Shrek City . Once Shrek City was destroyed, they had no back-up or emergency plan . That was the reason why the perpetrators behind the scenes could act without care .
Wu Zhangkong clapped his hands as he drew the attention of all simulating students to himself .
When they saw Wu Zhangkong, the students all wore respectful expressions . However, many of them appeared puzzled when they saw Tang Wulin beside Wu Zhangkong .
The youngsters before them were younger than Tang Wulin and most of them had never met him before . He was a stranger to them! This was their first time meeting a stranger in the past year .
"All of you can watch us spar from afar . " Wu Zhangkong had no intention of introducing Tang Wulin to them . Since everyone would be training outside after this, the less they knew about Tang Wulin's situation, the better .
Wu Zhangkong walked to one side while Tang Wulin walked to the other . He understood that this was Teacher Wu's way of assessing the extent to which his strength had grown .
Ever since Tang Wulin entered the inner court, this teacher and student had not fought each other .
Tang Wulin could sense the abyss-like aura coming from Wu Zhangkong . Teacher Wu's cultivation base must have improved by leaps and bounds . He should at least be an eight-ringed Soul Douluo by now . Moreover, Wu Zhangkong had graduated from Shrek Academy and was not the same as ordinary Soul Douluo-ranked soul masters .
"I won't hold back," said Wu Zhangkong coldly . His white robes flapped even though there was no wind .
Tang Wulin focused his gaze on Wu Zhangkong opposite him . He seemed to have seen the teacher whom he had faced for the first time back then .
White robes and blue sword, sky ice, and snow cold .
Even though Tang Wulin had grown to the stage where he could fight with Wu Zhangkong, he could never forget the heroic appearance of Wu Zhangkong from back then .
It could be said that throughout Tang Wulin's teenage, Sky Dragon Ice Wu Zhangkong had been his idol and role model .
After he progressed to a three-word battle armor, Wu Zhangkong added the word "dragon" to his battle armor making it Long Bing's dragon . The name of his battle armor was now Sky Dragon Ice .
In Tang Wulin's heart, Teacher Wu would surely become a four-word battle armor in the future .
The atmosphere instantly changed as both of them stood still . The students who had been sparring up until now had already moved to the sides . They looked with shock and anticipation as the sparring session was about to start .
Most of them had their eyes fixed on Tang Wulin . They were already very familiar with the strength of Wu Zhangkong . However, they were filled with curiosity when they saw this young man who did not look much older than themselves . Who was he? Could he really fight Teacher Wu?
Wu Zhangkong's eyes suddenly changed to an icy blue color . A sword of the same color appeared in his grasp . He had unleashed his martial soul right at the start while he faced Tang Wulin .
Tang Wulin saw circles of soul rings rise from under Wu Zhangkong's feet . One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight .
Nine…
Nine rings? When Tang Wulin saw the final black-colored soul ring that rose from Wu Zhangkong's body, his eyes immediately went dull…
Although it had been a long time since he fought with Wu Zhangkong, he was sure that only a couple of years had passed since then . From the time he went to Star Luo Empire, they had at most been apart for five years .
Five years ago, Teacher Wu should have been at seven rings and not eight . Had he progressed to the Title Douluo-ranked cultivation base in mere five years?
Although Tang Wulin was very confident in himself, he would still be pressured when he had to fight against an eight-ringed Soul Douluo-ranked Sky Dragon Ice Wu Zhangkong, let alone the current Teacher Wu who had a nine-ringed cultivation base .
Once a person had nine rings, the person would already be a Title Douluo . It was the symbol of the highest soul master rank . In other words, Teacher Wu could already be addressed as 'Your Excellency' .
Other than shock, Tang Wulin's heart was filled with joy . The existence of a Title Douluo was welcome news to any great force . It was the same for Tang Wulin . If Teacher Wu was now a Title Douluo, it meant that Shrek Academy would have another Title Douluo in its ranks . Moreover, with Teacher Wu's individual combat strength, his existence was like a strengthening tower for Shrek Academy .
Tang Wulin became excited when he thought about this . His fighting spirit was aroused as well .
Few more people walked into the gymnasium from the outside . The one who walked in front was impressively Wu Siduo and Tang Wulin was familiar with the faces behind her too .
Immortal Xu Yucheng, Shackler Luo Guixing, Dark Bear Yang Nianxia, and Jade Snake Zheng Yiran .
What surprised Tang Wulin was that Yang Nianxia and Zheng Yiran walked in together with joined hands . He did not know when these two nemeses had gotten together .
Zheng Yiran looked as proud as ever, it seemed that some things would never change . Tang Wulin was even suspicious of whether she was born with that expression . Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting .
Yang Nianxia looked even more good-natured than he used to . It seemed impossible for him to harm any life . There was a time when his scheming tactics had left a deep impression on Tang Wulin .
When he saw them, Tang Wulin had wanted to shout out at them . He wanted to say, "I'm so happy that everyone's alive!"
However, Wu Zhangkong made his move at this very moment .
There was no way that he would miss Tang Wulin's momentary state of distraction . He had no intention to let this opportunity slip out of his hands . On a true battlefield, the enemy would never show mercy because you had been distracted . That was just the way things were .
That was why Wu Zhangkong had attacked at the very first moment . He moved as quick as lightning . A surge of extreme coldness spread out instantly . In that instant, Tang Wulin only felt as if he was among a frozen tundra . Even with his body's strength, he felt as if he was about to be frozen .
