The Legend of the Dragon King - Chapter 513

Chapter 513

Yuanen Yehui stopped for a moment . This was truly her soft spot . Quite a few students from the second grade were naturally and extraordinarily gifted but still, there was a gap in their combined abilities when they were compared to the students in first grade class one .

She was initially assured that she would certainly triumph over Tang Wulin . However, after witnessing the battle between Tang Wulin and Wu Siduo, she was no longer as certain as she was in the past . The speed of Tang Wulin's development was truly too fast .

Tang Wulin spoke up when he saw her being silent, "Let me explain my way of doing this . If we were to consider the circumstance under which we'd have the highest possibility of winning, you, Ye Xinglan, and Wu Siduo should represent us in the three one-against-one matches . Gu Yue and I will take the two-against-two match . We have the best chemistry between ourselves as a team along with our martial soul fusion . I think this point is quite hard to disagree with, even for you . In the seven-against-seven match, we should send out five people from my side including myself, Gu Yue, Ye Xinlan, Xie Xie, and Xu Xiaoyan . From your side, you and Yue Zhengyu should be the ones to participate . T to send out these five persons from our side, including me, Gu Yue, Ye Xinglan, Xie Xie and Xu Xiaoyan . On your side, send you and Yue Zhengyu . Only this will ensure that the highest combat effectiveness from our side . "

"In other words, people from your side should occupy two matches in the one-against-one competition while we fully occupy the two-against-two match . In the final seven-against-seven, we'll send five people from our side along with two from your side . "

"Nope . " Yuanen Yehui rejected almost immediately without even the slightest hint of hesitation . "What kind of joke is this? We're from the second grade! If that is the case how am I supposed to justify this to my classmates?"

Tang Wulin explained, "Frankly speaking Yuanen, the abilities of your classmates can only go so far . " His scorching hot gaze was staring down on Yuanen Yehui causing her breathing to abruptly intensify .

Yuanen Yehui's breathing sounded slightly rapid, and she was silent for a long while before she spoke again, "Alright, I'll admit that you're right . With your combined abilities, you and your classmates are truly more powerful . However, dare you say that your way of distribution contains no selfish motives at all? I can acknowledge it if other people possess superior abilities . However, why is Xie Xie in the group match instead of Wu Siduo? Wu Siduo's as an individual definitely has abilities superior to Xie Xie's . He's only a three-ringed Agility System soul master! Can his abilities exceed Wu Siduo in the group match?

Tang Wulin was stunned for a moment . He did not expect her to direct the situation at Xie Xie . He frowned slightly . "Why can't he? Xie Xie has twin martial soul as well . Are you intentionally ignoring this point? Moreover, Xie Xie is my partner . We can definitely cooperate better when it comes to teamwork . "

Yuanen Yehui frowned . "Let me consider this for a while . "

The door suddenly swung open at this moment and a person walked in .

"I'll renounce my participation . " A voice that sounded slightly cold echoed from the door . Tang Wulin and Yuanen Yehui looked to the door simultaneously . Was that not Xie Xie who was green with rage standing at the door?

Xie Xie turned around and left upon uttering those words .

"Xie Xie!" Tang Wulin hastily chased after him .

As Yuanen Yehui gazed after their departing silhouettes, she was suddenly dumbfounded .

'Did he hear me? Did he hear all the words I said earlier?

'He must be hurt right? Why did I have to say that? I…'

Immediately, she realized that she was feeling quite restless in her heart .

Xie Xie did not return to his room but instead, he walked straight out of the dormitory section . Tang Wulin chased after him from behind and grabbed his shoulder .

"Xie Xie . "

Xie Xie stopped walking . His entire body gave off an aura that felt a little cold, "I'm fine, Wulin . I just need to be alone . "

Tang Wulin embraced his shoulder, "Don't let the perception of others influence you . Everyone can see your hard work . You're my partner and I believe in your abilities . When others doubt us, we have to strike back even harder . We're going to do that with our abilities and you, my friend, are the strongest Agility System soul master . "

Xie Xie turned around and looked toward Tang Wulin . His expression slightly relaxed upon seeing the sincerity in Tang Wulin's eyes, but he suddenly threw a punch at the tree bark next to him . "I don't understand why she's still treating me like this . I've been painstakingly cultivating every day, and yet I still find time to sweep the floor in front of her room, help her fetch the water, and wipe her windows early every morning . I've tried my hardest to work for everything she might need . I might not care how any other person sees me, but she's different . I'm not furious because she said my abilities aren't good enough . I'm only furious because I'm nothing in her heart . If that's the case, just forget it . "

His chest was heaving ever so slightly, and his gaze was just like that of a hurt wild beast .

Tang Wulin replied, "You're the only one who can make the decision in this matter, but I've something to tell you . Persistence is victory . If you're so easily defeated, then you might not necessarily succeed even when you've taken a fancy to someone else in the future . Although I'm not that experienced in relationships, I think I'll definitely not change my target so easily if I fancied a girl . I'd never wish to look for a girl who likes me . Instead, I'd much prefer if I would be able to find someone that doesn't like me, then I'd have a chance of making her like me . "

Xie Xie darted him a look . "Big brother, you're talking like this because you're in a good place . On one side, you have Gu Yue and on the other side, you have a good sister . How will you have any problems in your relationships?"

Tang Wulin raised his hand and knocked Xie Xie's head once . "Your head is full of all these things . If you have so much time, why don't you cultivate more often? We're going to be fifteen soon . Time waits for no man . I'll never ponder on these matters before entering the inner court . We should seize the opportunity to work hard while we're still young . "

Xie Xie laughed after hearing him say that . "Learn well and improve every day, am I right?"

Tang Wulin smiled . "In many occasions, simpler words are more meaningful . Why do you ask? Have you come around?"

Xie Xie shrugged . "I'm a person whose courage mounts as the battle progresses . You're right . I should prove myself with my abilities when the others doubt them . I should and will never surrender so easily . "

"Hmm . That's the spirit . " Tang Wulin nodded in all seriousness .

Xie Xie spoke in surprise, "You think so too?"

Tang Wulin laughed . "Yes! There are two simple words that can best describe you — Thick . Skinned . "

"You…"

"Alright, I'm going to the special cultivation venue to cultivate . Are you joining me?" Tang Wulin asked him .

Xie Xie shook his head . "I'm not joining you . The speed of my soul power cultivation is not that slow . This is an exceptional advantage to those of us with twin martial souls . Oh, by the way, have I told you that I'm am already rank-40 now?"

Tang Wulin's expression stiffened . "You're at rank-40 too!?"

Tang Wulin was only aware of Gu Yue being the only one close to rank-40 amongst his partners . Xu Lizhi should not be that far off as well . However, he did not expect Xie Xie to already be at rank-40 as well . At that moment, only he and Xu Xiaoyan were slightly below the margin to achieve rank-40 . This was truly a little troubling for him since he had been utilizing the special cultivation venue every day and yet, he still had a ways to go from rank-40 .

"Heh . I thought we're going to be fighting the third grade, right? We'll have a greater assurance of victory with four soul rings . " He already had twin martial souls so that was why he no longer needed to look for additional spirit souls once he achieved four rings . Gu Yue was similar to him in this sense since she did not need to look for additional spirit souls . That was why they would be able to possess their fourth soul skills once they broke through to rank-40 .

Tang Wulin gave him a big thumbs up . "Work hard . I'll continue to work with a greater amount of effort then . "

In the end, second grade class one did not approve of Tang Wulin's suggestion . Yuanen Yehui gathered the opinions from their class and their teacher before she discussed it with Tang Wulin the next day .

"Let's have an audition trial then . This way, everyone will have a fair go at it . We'll let our abilities speak for themselves . " Yuanen Yehui announced to Tang Wulin .

"Alright . " Tang Wulin agreed without the slightest hesitation . He had full confidence in his companions .

Yuanen Yehui replied, "We should discuss how we should carry the trial out before we begin . "

Tang Wulin asked, "The candidates for the three one-against-one matches . Do any of you have objections?"

Yuanen Yehui shook her head . "Our opinion regarding individual power is almost similar to your proposal . However, do you think Ye Xinglan is stronger than you?"

Tang Wulin nodded without the slightest hesitation . "The success rate of me going against her in a one-against-one match is about thirty percent . "

A surprised look flashed past Yuanen Yehui's eyes . She was truly unaware that Tang Wulin's evaluation of Ye Xinglan's abilities in his heart was so high . However, Ye Xinglan did manage to hold her own against a few powerhouses from the second grade . To top it off, she did that just by depending on her own power during that earlier match between the first and second grade . Her abilities were truly extraordinary .
