Chapter 1285: Absorbing the Thousand-Year Spirit Soul (Subscription Request)_1

The next day, Long Hengxu arrived early to find Xu Sheng, and said with a light laugh, "Congratulations, Teacher Xu, your Class Zero has once again obtained third place in the contest!"

Although they only got third place, they were competing against students with three rings and even close to four rings, which was enough to show the strength of Class Zero!

Xu Sheng just glanced at him and replied indifferently, "Hmm."

Seeing that he didn't seem to have much of a reaction, Long Hengxu asked in confusion, "Teacher Xu, aren't you a bit surprised at all?"

Xu Sheng said with a calm face, "I am very clear about their strength, I had anticipated this!"

Hearing this, Long Hengxu could only feel a strong air of Versailles...

"Uh..."

Xu Sheng raised an eyebrow and asked in confusion, "Director Long, do you have anything else?"

Awakened by this question, Long Hengxu suddenly realized, "Ah, yes, I do have another matter for which I came to see you, Teacher Xu!"

"It's about the reward promised by the academy for securing a top-three finish in the contest. I am a bit tied up, so I would have to trouble you, Teacher Xu, to take the Class Zero students to the Spirit Pagoda on your own!"

He was responsible for almost all the affairs, big and small, of the East Sea Academy and simply didn't have the time to accompany each class there!

Upon hearing this, Xu Sheng said, "Hmm, I understand!"

Long Hengxu sighed in relief, "Okay then, I won't disturb you from teaching anymore, Teacher Xu!"

After saying this brief sentence, he turned around and left...

By this time, the students of Class Zero were also arriving in the classroom one after another...

Xie Xie curiously asked, "Teacher Xu, what did Director Long want with you just now? He looked really rushed!"

Zhang Yangzi speculated suspiciously, "I guess it's mostly about the rewards for the top three finishers in the contest!"

Wei Xiaofeng smacked his lips and said, "I say, it couldn't be that the academy has decided to cancel the reward because it was too expensive, could it?"

Xu Xiaoyan blinked her beautiful eyes and said, "That should be impossible. If that were really the case, who would trust the academy in the future?"

Xu Sheng reassured, "Rest assured, the academy has already prepared these rewards in advance! After class, I'll take you to the Spirit Pagoda!"

Since both the Spirit Ascension Platform and the purchase of Spirit Souls were in the Spirit Pagoda, it was much more convenient!

...

Soon, the morning's classes had ended, and Xu Sheng led the students of Class Zero to the interior of the Spirit Pagoda!

Zhang Yangzi stretched and said contentedly, "Finally, we're back here again, so nice!"

Wei Xiaofeng pouted and said, "Nice what! We don't get anything, just have to watch with our eyes wide open!"

Wang Jinxi rarely sighed and said, "Don't think like that. Tang Wulin and the others being able to win the top three is also because their own strength is solid!"

At this moment, a somewhat attractive female staff member of the Spirit Pagoda saw Xu Sheng and his group and immediately walked over...

As she observed Xu Sheng, she asked warmly, "Hello, may I know what you need?"

In her heart, she exclaimed, "What a handsome man! If I could hook up with him, others would probably die of envy, right?"

She had never seen such a handsome man before!

Xu Sheng gently raised a curve of his lips and said softly, "I am a teacher from East Sea Academy, here to select Spirit Souls for the students and use the Intermediate Spirit Ascension Platform."

As soon as he said this, the female staff member's eyes lit up...

Being so young and already a teacher at East Sea Academy, his strength must also be quite impressive, right?

Thinking this, she blurted out without thinking, "Do you have a partner?"

But as soon as she finished speaking, her cheeks immediately turned red, and her ears grew hotter...

How... how embarrassing! How did I manage to say what I was thinking!!

Xu Sheng was momentarily taken aback, "Sorry, I already have a partner!"

The students from class zero behind him burst into laughter...

Although they had seen many people trying to hit on Xu Sheng, they never expected that his charm would even extend to the female staff of the Spirit Pagoda!

Wei Xiaofeng stifled a laugh, "Pfft! Our Teacher Xu's charm is too terrifying; he's beloved by everyone!"

Gu Yue asked curiously, "Speaking of which, does Teacher Xu really have a partner? How come we've never seen them?"

Xie Xie propped up his chin in thought, "The woman that could catch Teacher Xu's eye must be extraordinary, at least... um... as beautiful as Tang Wutong from the mural, the Dragon-fly Douluo!"

Wang Jinxi cautioned, "Don't talk nonsense. The status of Dragon-fly Douluo Tang Wutong in the Spirit Pagoda is far higher than you can imagine. If someone hears you, you're as good as dead!"

Sure enough, as if they had heard what Xie Xie had said earlier, many people inside the Spirit Pagoda turned their puzzled gazes towards them...

Xu Sheng looked at the woman before him, her face beet red, but still smiling gently, "Would you mind taking us, please?"

The said female staff member immediately snapped back to reality, hurriedly saying, "Okay... okay, please follow me to this side to register!"

Afterward, the female staff member quickly registered Tang Wulin's information...

She asked, "Young man, what level of Spirit Soul do you want to absorb?"

Upon hearing this, Tang Wulin's light blue eyes turned towards Xu Sheng...

Xu Sheng chuckled lightly, "Hmm? Why look at me?"

Hints of light twinkled in Tang Wulin's eyes, "Teacher Xu, do you think I could absorb a Thousand-Year Spirit Soul?"

Before Xu Sheng could answer, the students from class zero behind him exclaimed in shock, "Tang Wulin, have you lost your mind? If you forcibly absorb it, you might explode and die!"

"Don't do anything foolish! Do you think a Thousand-Year Spirit Soul is so easy to absorb?"

"Have you gone completely mad, wanting a Thousand-Year Soul for your second soul ring!"

Xu Sheng said out of curiosity, "Why say that? Absorbing a Centennial Soul Ring would be the most appropriate choice!"

After hearing that, Tang Wulin drew a deep breath, speaking with utter seriousness, "Because although Teacher Xu is a Soul Sage, didn't you also absorb three hundred-thousand-year soul rings?!"

His physique was stronger than that of an ordinary Soul Master, and because of the Golden Dragon King's bloodline, his spiritual power was also extraordinary!

So, perhaps he could try to absorb a Thousand-Year Spirit Soul!

The female staff member was dumbstruck, thinking incredulously, "What?? This handsome man actually absorbed three hundred-thousand-year soul rings??"

This kid named "Tang Wulin" must be joking, right?

Definitely!

How could someone with such a soul ring configuration appear in East Sea City?

Xu Sheng nodded thoughtfully, "I see. However, absorbing a Thousand-Year Soul Ring will be a tremendous strain on your body. Can you withstand it?"

Teacher Xu hadn't stopped him, which meant that he also thought Wulin had a chance of succeeding!

Determination sparkled in Tang Wulin's eyes, "I'm confident I can withstand it!!"

Seeing this, Xu Sheng looked at the woman beside him and said softly, "Please give him a Thousand-Year Spirit Soul!"

Hearing this, her expression grew serious, "Are you sure about this, teacher? If something goes wrong, the Spirit Pagoda will not be responsible!"

"Hmm! If something happens, I'll take responsibility!"
