After some thought, Tang Wulin did not come up with a satisfactory answer. He first responded to his father's question.
"I've saved enough money. Don't worry, Dad."
"Is that so?"
Tang Ziran frowned slightly. "If it's not enough, you must tell your mother and me. Don't push yourself."
"Yes." Tang Wulin obediently nodded and walked toward the dining table.
He didn't plan to tell his parents about the Golden Dragon King's seal for now. If they knew he might die, it would worry them.
After eating, Tang Wulin said goodbye to his parents. Instead of returning to the academy, he went to the Spirit Transmission Tower to purchase the spiritual items and dragon's blood.
He looked around on the soul tool light screen and found that for internal Spirit Transmission Tower personnel, obtaining spiritual items and dragon's blood from the Tower was the cheapest.
Tang Wulin took the elevator to the floor where spiritual items were sold. He had originally thought that the senior from the Spirit Transmission Tower there would ask for a reason, but the other simply smiled and handed him the three items.
"Here you go. These are the items, right?"
"Thank you, Uncle!"
Tang Wulin thanked him loudly, happily took the auxiliary items and dragon's blood, and turned to leave.
Then, without hesitating, he applied for a meditation room at the Spirit Transmission Tower, closed his eyes in meditation inside, and called out to "Old Tang."
"Old Tang" had said that once he gathered the items, he should tell him.
Tang San's divine consciousness woke up again. This time, he could finally be happy.
Finally, finally — one good thing had happened!
Wulin had obtained the materials to break the seal. He could also use Wulin's seal-breaking to absorb some energy to maintain his divine consciousness.
Although the Golden Dragon King's power from the first few seals was not much, even a mosquito's leg was still meat. This was not the time to be picky.
Thinking this, Tang San looked at Tang Wulin's location. Then... a long silence.
Wait — Wulin, you're breaking the seal directly inside the Spirit Transmission Tower?
Had you already subconsciously started to think of this place as safe?
Would you expose me in the future?
Tang San's divine consciousness lost its smile.
No — the education plan had to be moved up as soon as possible!
The final match of the Class Promotion Matches took place at noon one day.
As the challengers, Class Two could decide the number of participants. The participants were Tang Wulin, Xu Xiaoyan, and a black-haired boy.
Xie Xie, Huo Yuhao, and Gu Yuena also followed Luo Yanglu to the scene to observe.
The moment she arrived, Gu Yuena frowned. She glanced thoughtfully at Tang Wulin.
The aura of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline was now on him — very obvious.
But... this bloodline was still very weak.
Gu Yuena looked away, having thoroughly understood the situation of the Golden Dragon King's divine core.
If her guess was correct, the Golden Dragon King's divine core existed within this human's body in the form of multiple layers of seals. It needed to be liberated layer by layer; otherwise, this situation would not occur.
Gu Yuena thought for a moment and used sound transmission to ask Huo Yuhao beside her: "Yuhao, how do you plan to extract a trace of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline?"
Huo Yuhao's gaze lingered on Xu Xiaoyan for a moment before he looked away and transmitted back: "Through the Spirit Soul."
Gu Yuena was stunned. "The Spirit Soul?"
"Yes." Huo Yuhao glanced at Tang Wulin's summoned Spirit Soul — the Gray Sea Snake, which had turned golden and had a bump on its head — and nodded.
He wasn't planning to take the bloodline from Tang Wulin himself. Instead, he intended to extract the bloodline power from his Spirit Soul.
After all... Huo Yuhao didn't mean any offense, but little friend Wulin's bloodline was really a bit Zaza.
Soft Bone Rabbit, Blue Silver Emperor, deity, Golden Dragon King... too many.
What he needed was the purest Golden Dragon King bloodline power. Taking it from Tang Wulin himself would be somewhat troublesome.
But the Spirit Soul was different. Its own bloodline power was too fragile, while the Golden Dragon King's bloodline power was extremely overbearing. With the bonus of the Spirit Soul contract, when Tang Wulin lifted the Golden Dragon King's seal, his Spirit Soul would receive considerable feedback. Its original bloodline power would be directly replaced by the Golden Dragon King's bloodline!
So, starting with the Spirit Soul was the simplest approach.
Not to mention, he had also left a contingency in the Spirit Soul contract...
Thinking of this, Huo Yuhao glanced at Gu Yuena.
The surprise I left for this one ten thousand years ago — it seems it won't be needed after all... That's probably a good thing.
To make the Spirit Soul contract thoroughly something difficult to crack, he and Elder Electrolux had added light-based necromancy as one of its twenty-eight protective layers.
That was a magic Elder Electrolux had created himself, fundamentally different from ordinary necromancy. If anyone could crack it without the support of the Holy Demon Continent's system, Huo Yuhao would tip his hat to them!
At the same time, that was also the contingency he had left behind, originally intended to guard against Gu Yuena's Ten Thousand Beast Platform plan. It seemed it wouldn't be needed now. He would just use it to extract a bit of bloodline power.
Gu Yuena inexplicably felt a chill down her back. She glanced around strangely, and finally looking in Tang Wulin's direction. Suddenly thinking of something, she silently moved a few steps behind Huo Yuhao.
I almost forgot — that Tang Wulin has a God King's contingency inside him. I need to be careful.
Yes — stay by Yuhao's side, shield herself with Yuhao, and there would be nothing to worry about. She hoped he wouldn't be angry.
Seeing Gu Yuena's action, Huo Yuhao's train of thought was interrupted. "..."
Was there something wrong here? Weren't their roles reversed?
In the Sea of Spirit, Skydream Iceworm laughed heartily. "Yuhao, she's starting to become a bit like you."
"..."
Huo Yuhao pressed his lips together, not wanting to respond. He continued watching the competition.
The two sides had already begun a violent collision.
Tang Wulin's strength after breaking the seal was quite good. His bloodline suppressed Wang Jinxi's Bone Dragon King martial soul seriously.
But this was three against three.
Xu Xiaoyan hadn't yet reached Great Spirit Master, and it was daytime, not night. She couldn't exert the abilities of her Star Track Ice Staff and couldn't use absolute control. She was somewhat suspected of slacking off, being suppressed by Class One's main control spirit master, Zhang Yangzi.
Class Two's other teammate was an Agility Attack System Battle Spirit Master. His martial soul had good potential, but his strength couldn't compare to Xie Xie's. In His battle with Wei Xiaofeng, he quickly lost.
At this point, the initiative in the match gradually fell into the hands of the three from Class One.
This was a friendly match. Class One's mentality was relaxed. Class Two's teacher — Ye Yingluo — had lost the opportunity to "get revenge" on Wu Changkong after the original Class Five's defeat. Her mood was disappointed, and she didn't push her students to defeat Class One.
Neither side had any pressure. They played a good friendly match. No one was seriously injured.
But the result was somewhat beyond Luo Yanglu's expectations. Although Class One won, it felt somewhat like a narrow victory.
Wang Jinxi, the possessor of the Bone Dragon King martial soul, seemed to be suppressed when facing Tang Wulin. He was almost knocked out of the arena by Tang Wulin with his forging hammer, causing a chain reaction.
"That special special bloodline in his body — is it a dragon bloodline? Is that why he's born with supernatural strength?"
Luo Yanglu glanced thoughtfully at Tang Wulin, then quickly looked away.
He had some understanding of Tang Wulin's situation. The other was already a member of the Spirit Transmission Tower. He would investigate further later. It was also time to establish Class Zero.
Thinking of this, Luo Yanglu looked at Xu Xiaoyan again, then turned his gaze to Wu Changkong, who had also come to observe the match.
Well then — it was time to have a good exchange with this one.
