Chapter 16: The Graceful Ye Lingling
Zhilin understood what Ye Tianming meant, and a hint of approval flashed in his eyes.
He slowly raised his hand, and a strong soul power wave rippled in the air and fell on Long Chen.
Although this power did not show aggressiveness, it brought a sense of oppression that should not be underestimated, like an invisible mountain, weighing heavily on Long Chen's heart.
Long Chen suddenly felt unable to move.
"Xiaochen, I will test you with soul power next. You don't have to be nervous, just show your true strength."
Zhilin's voice was gentle and firm, with a hint of testing in his words.
Long Chen did not speak, but just nodded, his eyes became more determined.
He also wanted to know how strong his ability to withstand pressure was now.
Under that pressure, Long Chen urged the soul power in his body.
A warm and powerful energy flowed through his body, as if it had put on an invisible armor for him to resist the pressure from the outside world.
Zhilin immediately felt that Long Chen's soul power had indeed reached level 32.
As Zhilin gradually increased the output of soul power, the sense of oppression also increased.
Gradually, the pressure he exerted on Long Chen had reached the level of soul power at level 40.
Soul power at level 40 was already unbearable for a soul master at the level of Soul Venerable.
However, Long Chen's face did not show any pain.
His body trembled slightly, but not because of pain.
Instead, under this pressure, the soul power in his body was stimulated to be more active, as if it was silently competing with the pressure from the outside world.
Seeing this, Zhilin couldn't help but marvel in his heart.
He knew that Long Chen's martial soul was the Dark Night Magic Harp, and he was a control-type soul master.
He didn't expect that this young control-type soul master in front of him would have such a strong ability to withstand pressure.
Zhilin continued to increase his strength, and his soul power had reached the intensity that only a level 50 soul master could withstand.
Under such pressure, even a gifted young soul master would feel exhausted.
However, Long Chen still gritted his teeth and persisted. There was no retreat in his eyes, only the desire for challenge and the unyielding will.
Taking whale glue made his body extremely tough.
Having lived two lives, how can his will be compared to that of ordinary people?
Finally, Zhilin withdrew his soul power and showed a satisfied smile on his face.
"What a tenacious little guy! The purity of your soul power and the firmness of your will are rare. I withdraw my previous doubts. You do have the qualifications to become a Tiandou-level student, and even have the potential to surpass this level."
Long Chen breathed a sigh of relief and looked indifferent.
"Thank you for the test, teacher."
Meng Shenji and Bai Baoshan witnessed the whole process and nodded one after another, expressing their appreciation for Long Chen.
Meng Shenji patted Long Chen on the shoulder and said earnestly:
"Xiaochen, you have extraordinary potential and tenacious will. I believe that in the near future, you will be able to shine in the soul master world and bring glory to the Royal Academy."
Before Long Chen came to see the three teaching committee members, Liu Zhicheng had already told them that Long Chen's martial soul was a mutant martial soul, the Dark Night Magic Harp.
Meng Shenji's martial soul is the Black Demon, which has the dark attribute, but it has not evolved into the evil attribute.
He didn't care that Long Chen had a powerful evil-attributed Dark Night Demon Harp martial spirit.
He believed that after proper guidance, a soul master who was born with an evil-attributed martial spirit could also walk on the right path.
Seeing the attitude of the three teaching committee members towards Long Chen, Ye Tianming was filled with relief.
He knew that sending Long Chen to the Tiandou Royal Academy was the right choice.
Here, Long Chen will have the opportunity to be better trained and developed.
Later, under the leadership of Liu Zhicheng, Long Chen and Ye Tianming bid farewell to the three teaching committee members and went to the boys' dormitory.
Long Chen is now a Tiandou-level student.
There are fewer Tiandou-level students in the academy, and they enjoy the treatment of single dormitories.
Under the arrangement of the school staff, Long Chen has his own luxurious single room.
After a simple packing, he and Ye Tianming went to the training ground to find Ye Lingling.
Seeing the two, Ye Lingling was very happy and greeted them with joy.
"Dad, Brother Chen, why are you here?"
Ye Tianming smiled.
"Lingling, you have grown a lot taller. Dad has brought you good news."
"What good news? Did Brother Chen come to our college?"
Ye Tianming nodded.
"From today on, Xiaochen is also a member of the Royal College."
"Really?"
Ye Lingling stared straight at Long Chen.
Long Chen was stunned for a moment.
Unconsciously, Ye Lingling had changed her appearance and was no longer the little girl she used to be.
She had transformed into a beautiful girl.
Those big watery eyes flashed with surprise and disbelief, like the bright stars in the night sky, reflecting the joy surging in her heart.
A faint blush appeared on her cheeks, adding a bit of girlish shyness and innocence.
As the corners of her mouth unconsciously lifted, two shallow dimples appeared on her face, making her look even sweeter.
She stepped forward lightly, with the lightness and liveliness unique to a young girl in her movements. Her long, smooth hair swayed gently with her movements, exuding a faint fragrance.
Her voice was also slightly crisp and pleasant due to excitement.
"Brother Chen, you are really here! We can go to school together in the future!"
Long Chen smiled and nodded.
"Great! So you have broken through level 30?"
"Well, I just got the third soul ring with Uncle Ye in the Star Dou Forest, and my soul power is now level 32."
"Level 32?"
Ye Lingling's eyes widened.
"Brother Chen, you are really amazing. You are already a Tiandou-level student just after entering the academy."
The three chatted as they walked.
Ye Lingling told Ye Tianming about her recent situation.
After dinner, Long Chen and Ye Lingling sent Ye Tianming to the entrance of the academy together.
"Okay, you two should go back too. Study hard in the academy and take good care of yourselves. I'll come to see you later."
"Okay, got it. Don't worry, Uncle Ye, I'll take good care of Lingling."
The two watched Ye Tianming leave before turning around and stepping into the academy.
Stepping onto the stone steps leading to the main campus, the two chatted as they walked.
Ye Lingling was in a good mood. She had been looking forward to this day for a long time.
"Brother Chen, every time you and dad came to see me, I secretly watched you leave on this road. This time with you by my side, I'm no longer alone."
"Lingling, I will always be with you in the future."
"Brother Chen, you are already a Tiandou-level student, and I'm still a Tianhui-level student. We are at different levels and cannot practice together."
Long Chen smiled.
"Lingling, we can practice together. Isn't the academy going to form a new school team soon? As long as we join the school team together, it will be fine."
