Chapter 283: Chapter 282: Stirring

Tang San approached Zhang Haoxuan and said, "Teacher, about our visit to the Beast Fight Arena...""I have agreed on behalf of the academy. However, you must be careful, extremely careful. And remember, the Beast Fight Arena is not a merciful place. You cannot afford to be merciful there either, understand? Being merciful to the enemy is cruelty to yourself."

Tang San nodded vigorously, "I understand. Rest assured."

"Good, then take them and prepare. You may not have worked together for a long time. Now, as everyone's strength has increased, you need to lead them to become more familiar with each other and practice teamwork. In team battles, coordination is of utmost importance."

"Yes," Tang San nodded again in agreement.

Zhang Haoxuan had no intention of giving them pointers on teamwork. In fact, he completely trusted that Tang San would do no worse than himself in this aspect, and might even do better.

He decided to let them handle it on their own. Tang San had never disappointed him. With their current strength and line-up, plus Tang San's own hidden abilities, they should be able to handle any opponent they face in the Grand Animal Fighting Arena. After all, there were no god-ranked individuals there.

This battle was a significant event for Redemption Academy, affecting both teachers and students profoundly.

Guan Longjiang returned to his room, his emotions gradually calming down. Although losing in front of a large audience was somewhat embarrassing, he had to admit the excellence of these children. Even his own direct disciples, he was starting to lose clarity on them.

And Tang San, once again, entered his field of vision.

Throughout the past year, Zhang Haoxuan used individual coaching as a reason to keep Tang San almost entirely out of Redemption Academy. As a result, as the dean of teaching, he was unaware of what Tang San had been doing during this time.

However, judging from today's situation, Tang San's strength must have made a qualitative leap. His Demon God Transformation Level was still at the seventh stage, but it must have reached the peak of the seventh stage, and he was not far from the eighth stage. Such a rate of advancement was astonishingly fast.

He might look very different now, but he's only twelve years old, not even thirteen, and he already possesses such strength?

What's even more terrifying is his spiritual power, which is definitely at the Ninth Stage level, along with a unique way of releasing it.

Guan Longjiang knew that Wu Bingji and the others had been practicing a method to enhance their spiritual power all along. It was said to be taught by Tang San, but in his view, it must have come from Zhang Haoxuan, possibly originating from headquarters. Zhang Haoxuan hadn't told him about this, and it was inconvenient for him to ask. Now it seemed that in terms of spiritual power level, these youths were even stronger than he had imagined. In time, wouldn't they all have the potential to break through to the divine rank?

"How do you feel?" The door was pushed open, and Zhang Haoxuan walked in from outside.

"Are you here to gloat?" Guan Longjiang said discontentedly.

Zhang Haoxuan laughed, "You and I are brothers, why would I gloat? If I were in your place today, I wouldn't have been certain to win either."

"Such modesty?" Guan Longjiang glanced at him; he was aware of Zhang Haoxuan's cultivation base reaching the peak of the ninth stage. Over the last year, Zhang Haoxuan's progression had been notably fast. It seemed that he was close to making a breakthrough to the god level.

Guan Longjiang himself was also striving hard, determined, but with his talent being what it was, he knew that the chances of him breaking through to the god level in his lifetime were slim.

"You should feel proud, after all, these are disciples we have taught. 'The student surpasses the master,' isn't that what we as teachers would wish to see the most?"

"The Grand Beast Fight Arena is still too risky," Guan Longjiang frowned and said.

"But, just like Tang San suggested going out for real combat, actual combat does indeed allow our students to grow rapidly. Let them go and create. Without taking any risks, when will we be able to rescue our clansmen from peril?"

Guan Longjiang sighed softly, saying, "Maybe you're right, I have indeed been too conservative. Today, these kids did indeed give me a huge surprise. What I'm curious about is, how did you teach Tang San? He's so young!"

Zhang Haoxuan smiled faintly and said, "I didn't teach him that, it's just his extraordinary talent, I suppose. Perhaps, this is the providence the heavens have granted humankind." S~eaʀᴄh the Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Guan Longjiang looked at him with some surprise, "Do you really rate him that highly?"

Zhang Haoxuan said, "Anyway, his future achievements will definitely surpass ours. I have this confidence. Give him some more time, and he will surely bloom with an even more dazzling brilliance."

Guan Longjiang said, "I hope so. Why has your bloodline fluctuation often been overflowing lately? Are you losing control? Have you spoken to headquarters about this?"

Zhang Haoxuan said, "I have. I just wrote a letter to headquarters, waiting for a reply."

Guan Longjiang said with admiration, "I'm really envious of you! You're about to touch that world. I originally thought that, like me, we wouldn't be able to reach that world."

Zhang Haoxuan cracked a small smile and said, "It's possible, believe me. In the near future, it will definitely be possible."

Guan Longjiang said, "Lately, you've seemed to be in a good mood all the time. Is it because you're about to make a breakthrough?"

Zhang Haoxuan shook his head and said, "Not exactly. It's mainly because we might have a way out. Even if any danger arises in the future, we will be able to keep these seeds safe."

"Oh?"

"Don't ask too much, I can't tell you now. I'll tell you after I've made the breakthrough. Ah, by the way, let me ask you again."

"What's that?"

"What does it taste like to be beaten down by society? Hahaha!" Amidst the laughter, Zhang Haoxuan quickly made his exit, leaving Guan Longjiang's face turning blue with anger.

That damn kid Wu Bingji dares to suppress me, watch how I'll deal with him!

Unaware that he was about to become an outlet for someone's frustration, Wu Bingji was currently with Tang San and the others.

Cheng Zicheng said with stars in her eyes, "Eldest senior brother, the way you controlled those ice needles just now was incredible. Even Teacher Guan was suppressed by you."

Wu Bingji smiled and said, "Finally, a year's effort has not been in vain. After practicing Tang San's 'Purple Demon Eyes,' there really has been progress in the precise control of the ice element. This has allowed me to manipulate the ice needles more smoothly."

Tang San said, "This is the result of your own efforts, eldest senior brother. Since we've decided to go to the Grand Animal Fighting Arena, as Teacher said, we need to practice some cooperation. If we win ten consecutive fights, we can obtain a noble slot. Then, we can visit the Ancestral Court with Teacher."

The eyes of everyone lit up, and Wu Bingji said, "You make the arrangements, we'll all follow your lead."

They were all genuinely convinced by Tang San; without his help, they couldn't have improved so much in just over a year.

Tang San said, "For the next week, let's gather together and practice coordination."

"Wait, do you mean Brother Du Bai should participate too? His 'Heavenly Fox Transformation' can't be used in combat," Gu Li reminded.

Tang San smiled and said, "It's okay; Luck's blessing can be applied before battle, and during the battle, there are other methods. I will help Brother Du Bai adopt another identity. His Spiritual Power is now sufficient. I'll give you a few things to use in coordination with us."

"Hidden weapons?" Du Bai asked curiously.

Tang San shook his head and said, "Hidden weapons must not be revealed in the Grand Animal Fighting Arena." He had used hidden weapons to help Pretty Girl assassinate several strong individuals a year ago, but they couldn't be exposed to avoid unnecessary trouble.

While speaking, he took out three metal discs from his Storage Pouch and handed them to Du Bai.
