G.o.d, I hope this chapter goes live with the auto release . . .

There will be no chapter tomorrow as I"m currently at a friends house for New Year"s Eve and hadn"t had the time to write it up "til now .
I"ll make a double release the day after that!
Anyways, I wish all of you a happy New Year!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tang Wulin was caught off guard by Sheng Feilong and didn"t say anything . Instead, Xu Lizhi put his arm around Sheng Feilong"s shoulders with a big smile as he spoke to Tang Wulin .
"Wulin, we really need to take this guy with us! Even among our old cla.s.s, he was strong enough to defeat a few of the older students . "
Tang Wulin"s eyes widened . He had faced Sheng Feilong in the entrance examination before and had felt that suppressive power of the latter Spirit Soul, but to think he"d be able to beat older students from the Inner Court was incredible news for him . He stealthily glanced at Ye Xinglan, who just slightly nodded her head, obviously backing Xu Lizhi"s claim, before his eyes went over to Luo Guixing who, although standing on hiw feet again, was still panting heavily from the earlier encounter with Sheng Feilong .
Tang Wulin"s thoughts went wild for a few seconds before he stretched out his hand with a bright smile, ultimately agreeing to have Sheng Feilong join their team . The other members also didn"t have anything against the decision . They also knew Sheng Feilong as well as the secret of him being the descendant of a Soul Beast and saw how easily he dealt with Luo Guixing and happily accepted him .
On the other side of the cla.s.sroom, Jian w.a.n.g was put in an embarra.s.sing position . Just now, he had asked Luo Guixing and the others to let Sheng Feilong join before the latter marched off to join their "enemies" . Before he could say anything, Luo Guixing had regained his composure and spoke to the whole team with a serious expression .
"This guy is dangerous . . . I didn"t mind Tang Wulin"s team before, but now that they have Gu Yue and this Sheng Feilong, it"s become a bit troublesome . There"s also Ye Xinglan . I don"t quite get it, but this girl also isn"t normal . Jian w.a.n.g, what do you know of Sheng Feilong? Tell us everything . "
Jian w.a.n.g smiled wryly before giving them some basic information about Sheng Feilong"s "Spirit Eyes", his illusion-based control abilities and combat experience . Luo Guixing"s expression became more grave with every new piece of information as he had to admit that Sheng Feilong was superior to him in every regard – apart from looks and demeanor, of course .
Everyone in cla.s.s continued to make their groups and talk amongst themselves before Tang Wulin made his way to the front of the cla.s.s . He asked everyone to hand in the lists consisting of their team"s information so that he could give it to the teachers . Luo Guixing was the first to swagger to the front with the list in hand . He gave Sheng Feilong a death stare, which the latter indifferently ignored, before handing Tang Wulin the list with a fake smile .
"Cla.s.s President, here"s the list with my group of 6 . "
As both of them had their hands of the list, their eyes met and a explosive aura surged out from them; not Soul Power, but fighting spirit! Sheng Feilong decided to ask his new team members what happened between those two later while he wore an amused expression . Still, a bit of fighting spirit came off of him, too, when he looked at Jian w.a.n.g who sat among Luo Guixing"s group . Their eyes met as well and both faintly smiled .
Bit by bit, everyone handed in their team compositions, leading to over 20 teams in total . Unlike the Inner Court"s Prodigy Cla.s.s, The Outer Court"s cla.s.s 1 had over 100 students; 102 to be precise, though most notably were the Cla.s.s President, Tang Wulin and Gu Yue as well as Luo Guixing and the other rankers of the Genius Youth Ranking . Still, everyone else also pa.s.sed Shrek Academy"s entrance exam and naturally couldn"t be looked down upon .
After all teams were made, Tang Wulin allowed everyone to leave, while asking Sheng Feilong and the rest to wait for him while he handed the doc.u.ments over to the teacher"s office . When he came back, everyone made their way to the Blacksmith"s a.s.sociation . Tang Wulin actually had a private workshop there, surprising Sheng Feilong and the other former Inner Court students . He shut the door, isolating them from the outside before slightly bowing to everyone .
"I"m sorry . I"ve dragged you into this mess because I"ve been neglecting my responsibilities as the Cla.s.s President . "
Gu Yue frowned as she chirped in .
"How can you be blamed for that? They"re clearly targeting all of us and are working together to get our positions . Don"t tell me you"re afraid now that they teamed up?"
Tang Wulin smiled wryly before looking at the rest of the group again .
"Of course not . Actually, I"ve brought you all here to discuss something . Before this happened, Luo Guixing and Wu Sidou were part of our group and, together with them, Gu Yue and I diceded to form a Mecha Making group . However, we didn"t want to build Mechas – We were going for Battle Armours!"
After that, he explained his plan to use Spirit Alloys to forge Battle Armour for everyone . A few didn"t know about Spirit Alloy, so Tang Wulin explained it, while Xu Lizhi, Ye Xinglan and Sheng Feilong, who came from the Inner Court, were listening with furrowed brows . Spirit Alloy was the work of rank 5 Blacksmiths . They would fuse various pre-treated metals and forge them together to create special alloys that were then further refined to become Spirit Alloys .
Usually, Spirit Alloys weren"t used for 1-star Battle Armours, but only 2-star and above because of their expensive prices . Their advantages, however, were more than clear . Spirit Alloys could be fused with a Soul Master"s body directly, causing the need to don a Battle Armour to be erased . Instead, they would just have to will the armour to appear on their bodies and they would be in top condition immediately!
Everyone, including Sheng Feilong, quickly jumped on the train . It"s been a while since Sheng Feilong had been that excited about something! Not only would they build Battle Armours of their own, they would even use Spirit Alloys provided by Tang Wulin! After that, Tang Wulin asked for everyone"s Second Professions . He himself was obviously a Blacksmith, and even of rank 5 at that, while Gu Yue is a Mecha Designer of rank 4 .
Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan introduced themselves first, causing Tang Wulin to jump in joy; They were a Mecha mechanic and Mecha Maker of rank 4, respectively, and exactly what their team needed to create a full team to make Battle Armour . Everyone then looked Sheng Feilong, who just wryly smiled before dropping a bomb .
"I"m a rank 5 Mecha Maker, though, I"m close to rank 6 . I also have experience with building Mecha"s from scratch . "
Aside from Xu Lizhi and Ye Xinglan, the others stared at him with wide eyes . Tang Wulin had just praised Ye Xinglan highly and told Xie Xie to learn from her, as he was a Mecha Maker as well, and now Sheng Feilong is even more proficient in it than she is! Trying to dispell the awkward situation, Sheng Feilong smiled at Tang Wulin with a calm expression .
"So, you can really forge Spirit Alloys yourself?"
Tang Wulin smiled lightly before rea.s.suring them . He went over to a shelf and took out a few pieces of metal before telling them, that he was currently able to create three different alloys; Jade Silver, Spirit Gold and Star Silver . And his success rate was about 30 percent . He wanted to show them what he could do by forging a piece of Jade Silver alloy for Ye Xinglan, but was stopped by Sheng Feilong .
"You said your success rate was about 30 percent? I"ve heard that the main issue while forging alloys are concentration and speed as one needs to be incredibly precise during the process, right?"
He paused a moment, waiting for Tang Wulin"s response, that quickly came in the form of a nod, before he continued and activated his Radiant Emperor"s Phantasmagoric eyes and his second Soul Skill . Tang Wulin was surprised when he noticed the changes and looked at Sheng Feilong in astonishment . The latter looked at him with a smile before answering the unasked question .
"If it"s just one person, I can keep it up for about 2 hours before I"m out of Spirit Power . This should help with your forging, right?"
Tang Wulin was clearly excited and could wait any longer as he bagan forging the next second . Gu Yue frowned . She had noticed that Sheng Feilong used his Spirit Soul and Soul Skill on Tang Wulin, but no one could make out what changed . She questioned Sheng Feilong in a low voice to not disturb Tang Wulin .
"What Soul Skill did you use to help him with his forging?"
Sheng Feilong calmly looked at her with a light smile .
"Have you heard about the stories of the Spirit Ice Douluo"s powers?" Gu Yue frowned again, forcefully nodding her head, though not knowing what the question was all about . Sheng Feilong kept his calm expression before casually telling her about his Soul Skill .
"Mental Detection . I"m sharing it with Tang Wulin at the moment . "
Gu Yue was shocked once again, but didn"t question him an further . One because she didn"t want to disturb him as using his Soul Skill on others was not that easy, though, it didn"t seem as if Sheng Feilong had any problem with that, and two because his eyes made her uncomfortable . The golden coloured eyes seemed so arrogant, yet able to see through everything . Moreover, that strage symbol on Sheng Feilong"s forehead just made it all the more weird .
About 20 minutes later, Tang Wulin stopped his forging and turned to face the rest of the group with a smile . He seemed to be especially excited when his eyes fell on Sheng Feilong and quickly jumped over to hug the latter intimately, causing Sheng Feilong to flinch from shock . Tang Wulin let go of him after just two seconds, but cold sweat still run down Sheng Feilong"s back .
"This guy . . . not only is he lecherous to the extreme, but he"s also not bothered by gender?! Was joining them really a good idea . . . ?"
