Chapter 1512

Rainbow Law was the name that Tang Wulin had given to this rainbow light.

It appeared that his method of cultivation was correct. In the past, his main issue was that he didn't know how to absorb this energy of laws, but through his control and usage of his Restrict All Laws, Dragon Emperor Break, he could attempt to absorb this energy when his soul core, dragon core, and mind were all combined as one.

As his mind had been elevated, the small soul core that had appeared within his mind had also attained a substantial form. Even though it was still only around the size of a pea, this was still an improvement compared to the insubstantial state it had been in before. Tang Wulin could clearly sense that the overall quantity of his soul power hadn't changed, but it had become purer than in the past.

As expected, pressure was still the best catalyst for improvement.

His consciousness returned as he awakened from his meditation, and all of his injuries had already healed.

He was feeling extremely comfortable aside from a sense of intense hunger, and due to the improvements that he had just made, his belief had been heightened, and his resolve to continue working hard in his cultivation was further bolstered.

Wait for me, Gu Yue. One day, you're going to be stunned by my power, and when that time comes, I'm staying by your side no matter what.

......

Gu Yuena slowly opened her eyes in her silent chamber, and a hint of bitterness appeared on her face.

"I really don't want you to become any more powerful, Wulin. If you continue to become more powerful, your final opponent will be...

"

The round-robin stage continued, and just like Tang Wulin, Qiangu Zhangting and Lan Fuozi easily defeated their opponents as well.

During the round-robin stage, upsets became very rare, and after five days, the first round was completed. A clear divide had appeared in each group where those who had won a match were ranked at the top, while those who had lost were ranked below the winners.

Tang Wulin and Li Weisi's match had been analyzed thoroughly, and many people were of the opinion that Tang Wulin had been very lucky to win. There were also people sent to interview Li Weisi about the match, but Li Weisi refused to tell anyone what had happened during the match; all he was willing to reveal was that he had lost in crushing fashion.

However, despite his victory, Tang Wulin's projected final ranking in the event had gone down a few places. After all, he had thrown up blood, and his condition was very poor; who knew if he would be able to recover in just five days?

Tang Wulin had meditated for three full days, and upon making a full recovery, he had immediately resumed his heavenly refinement training. Currently, heavenly refinement was the best method of cultivation for him as it allowed him to interact with the laws of elements in order to better understand his Dragon Emperor Restriction Techniques. Dragon Emperor Break was the first technique, but it definitely wasn't the last one. However, even Tang Wulin himself didn't know when he would be able to invent the second technique.

The next competition date for the third group arrived, and Tang Wulin arrived at the Bright City Sports Stadium right on time.

His match was scheduled to be the second one of the day, so there was no rush for him.

In the waiting area, the 10 competitors in the third group had all arrived. The matches for the third group were going to take place in the morning, while those for the fourth group would be held during the afternoon.

Qiangu Zhangting was seated in a separate corner from everyone else, resting with his eyes closed. However, instead of just the 10 people from the third group, Lan Fuozi was also in the waiting area.

Tang Wulin was the last to arrive in the third group, and his arrival instantly drew everyone's attention; even Qiangu Zhangting had opened his eyes.

At this point, Tang Wulin had already made a full recovery, and he was still putting on an arrogant facade with his chin raised high as he found a quiet place to sit.

He had naturally seen Lan Fuozi as well, but after recalling what Yali had told him, he pretended not to have seen her, choosing instead to also rest with his eyes closed like Qiangu Zhangting.

Lan Fuozi couldn't help but grit her teeth at the sight of his cocky display, but didn't take the initiative to approach him.

Unbeknownst to her, Tang Wulin was intentionally refraining from approaching her.

Aside from Gu Yuena, Tang Wulin had come into contact with some other women in his life, such as Wu Siduo and Dai Yun'er. In particular, Dai Yun'er had sacrificed a lot for him. However, his heart was solely occupied by Gu Yue, so he couldn't give any other woman anything.

As such, he was putting on a distant and aloof facade, and he had even repressed his own curiosity about Lan Fuozi's background.

"The competitors for the first match can enter the stadium now,

" a worker announced.

Two competitors from the third group rose to their feet in unison and took a glance at one another before walking out of the waiting area. They were competing with one another, so there was no need to exchange any pleasantries.

To Tang Wulin's surprise, Qiangu Zhangting suddenly stood up and took a seat on the sofa across from him.

"You're Yu Longyue, right? My name is Qiangu Zhangting; it's a pleasure to meet you.

"

Tang Wulin opened his eyes, and he had to admit that Qiangu Zhangting was an exceptionally handsome man.

On this day, Qiangu Zhangting was wearing a set of white activewear with the sleeves rolled up to his elbows, looking like a sharp and dashing young man in his twenties, rather than someone who was in his thirties.

Qiangu Zhangting continued,

"It's quite the coincidence that we were assigned to the same group; what do you think of our group?

"

Tang Wulin replied in an indifferent manner,

"I think my progression is guaranteed.

"

Qiangu Zhangting faltered slightly upon hearing this. What was that supposed to mean? Was he saying that no one in this group could beat him?

A cold smile appeared on Qiangu Zhangting's face.

"Is that so? I look forward to our match. I hope you're not going to turn up looking like a sick puppy again; I want to beat you when you're fully fit so you don't have any excuses.

"

"Ok.

" Tang Wulin gave a clipped response.

Qiangu Zhangting's smile became more pronounced at the sight of Tang Wulin's arrogant display, and he stood up before leaning down next to Tang Wulin, then said in a voice that was only audible to the two of them,

"Nana is already my woman; no one can take her away from me.

"

"Your breath stinks!

" Tang Wulin leaned back with a disdainful expression, and he intentionally made his voice very loud so that everyone else could hear him.

Lan Fuozi couldn't help but burst into laughter upon hearing this. Both of these guys were very annoying, and watching two annoying guys being pitted against one another was quite entertaining.

Qiangu Zhangting's smile immediately faded as a look of burning fury appeared in his eyes. He immediately stood up straight and glowered at Tang Wulin with a furious expression, then pointed a threatening finger at him before storming out of the resting area.

Even as he departed, Tang Wulin made sure to throw another parting jab.

"Did your parents not teach you that it's rude to point at someone? What an uncultured little brat.

"

The other competitors of the third group all exchanged a few glances, but no one said anything.

All young and powerful Soul Masters were proud individuals, but just because they were proud didn't mean that they were stupid!

Everyone knew who Qiangu Zhangting was; calling him an uncultured brat was an indirect insult to the chairman of the Spirit Pagoda himself! This Yu Longyue was either extremely brave or pitifully stupid!

In reality, Tang Wulin hadn't intended to do this; it was just that the mere sight of Qiangu Zhangting pissed him off for some reason. In particular, whenever he thought about how both Qiangu Zhangting and Gu Yuena were at the Spirit Pagoda, his heart would burn with fury.

Even he wasn't aware that what he was experiencing was jealousy.

Lan Fuozi also departed as the match had already begun, and Tang Wulin was scheduled to fight in the second match.

Tang Wulin had clearly already recovered from his injuries, and with her sharp spiritual power, Lan Fuozi was able to sense that there was something different about him. His entire body seemed to be glowing with some type of peculiar light that was extremely faint and could just barely be detected by her Spirit Domain realm spiritual power.

The first match lasted longer than expected, and only after half an hour was Tang Wulin called up for his match.

"Please enlighten me,

" a tall and broad young man said with a serious expression as he approached Tang Wulin.
