Chapter 376 - Reunion With Ye Xinglan (2/2)
Within the second grade, Tang Wulin knew of Yuanen Yehui and Yue Zhengyu. Just thinking about those two was enough to make him sweat. The strength Yue Zhengyu revealed during the tower attack sent him into a state of awe, and he didn't even want to think about Yuanen Yehui with her new Diamond Baboon spirit soul. Coupled with four soul rings, her power undoubtedly reached a frightening new level. Holding back against such opponents meant certain defeat!
If they didn't fill the first grade's team with the cream of the crop, then even with a one-man advantage, they'd have to fight tooth and nail for victory.
Tang Wulin glanced at his cla.s.smates. Wu Siduo, Luo Guixing, and Yang Nianxia stood beside each other, huddling together as they exchanged some hushed words.
“It doesn't look like they plan on grouping with us.” Gu Yue sneered.
Lately, Tang Wulin and Gu Yue felt ostracized by their cla.s.smates under the lead of the five rankers. This change started after Tang Wulin and Gu Yue chose to make their battle armor from alloys. Since then, they became estranged with Wu SIduo and Luo Guixing.
“We'll just make our own group,” Tang Wulin said.
Turning to face him, Gu Yue was astonished to see the confidence burning within his eyes.
She liked this look on him best. That determined expression that appeared in the face of challenge. He never backed down, always sweating tears and blood to strive for victory, never cowering from tribulations, even when all hope seemed lost. He always advanced with sheer willpower, guiding his teammates like a s.h.i.+ning beacon. Being shunned by the five rankers was but a trifling matter to him.
Tang Wulin cast his attention to his other friends. “Xie Xie, Xiaoyan, let's form a group.”
Their individual power wasn't particularly remarkable. However, a team's strength didn't necessarily stem from the sum of its members. Teamwork was just as important. Tang Wulin's team made up for its lack of power with its extraordinary teamwork. As comrades for so many years, they held a deep understanding of each other's strengths and weaknesses. Together they had been through thick and thin. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say they had forged unbreakable bonds. In comparison, the team of rankers were practically strangers with one another. A team in name only. Since that was the case, Tang Wulin was bent on showing everyone their might. He only had eyes for the goal: to become the cla.s.s representative team!
While Tang Wulin's heart burned with resolution, Shen Yi returned to the cla.s.sroom with two people in tow.
As soon as he recognized them, Tang Wulin was shocked. A moment later, a smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
“Everyone, quiet down,” Shen Yi said.
The entire cla.s.s went silent, everyone's attention focusing on Shen Yi.
“Two new students will be joining our cla.s.s today. This here is Ye Xinglan, an a.s.sault-type soul master. The other one is Xu Lizhi, a food-type soul master. Give them a warm round of welcome.”
Amidst the scattered applause, some whispers could be heard between the students. “When did Shrek get so relaxed? Why are they only joining us now? Isn't this strange?”
Tang Wulin still remembered the beating Ye Xinglan had served him on a silver platter, and he had reunited with Xu Lizhi a few days ago. His smile grew bigger as he recalled Xu Lizhi's tremendous help during the tower attack.
If we have him, then...
