Dragon King of Apocalypse

'Stupid dog!'

'Dumb snake!'

'Fatty!'

'Ugly!'

Tang Wulin ignores the lively banter as he continues traversing the ancient forest. He wonders if anybody else had their soul spirit arguing with each other. Zeref believes it them merely playing with each other but he thought otherwise.

"Ahh, they're so cute."

Tang Wulin lips twitch at that comment as he kept on moving. He surprised he hasn't detected any sound of battle or cries for help. He was certain there would be a lot by now.

'Did… I underestimate them?'

"Maybe? That or they withdraw before they could scream."

Tang Wulin hummed, while his Bluesilver grass was being joyful from feeling all of the lush grass and trees. He guesses this is the first time it experienced so much nature, considering the continent itself barely have any forest.

He then smelled the familiar scent of a dragon. He then sped towards the scent in eager anticipation of a terrific fight.

When he reached the scene, he was surprised to see Xie Xie was being chased by a spirit beast. Not wasting any time, he kicks off the ground and before the spirit beast could snatch a bite off Xie Xie.

Bang!

Xie Xie saw the beast trying to snatch a bite of him and then was surprised as a mighty fist appeared on its head. Next, he had to shield his eyes as a fierce gust of wind was formed and he then saw the Horned Dragon body imprinted in the ground.

"Tang Wulin!"

Tang Wulin waved at him, as they both got down from the tree. Xie Xie trembles as it saw with just his sheer strength Tang Wulin was able to knock down a hundred-year-old soul beast. Tang Wulin isn't thinking much of it since he already knocks down a thousand-year-old one.

'It was a cheap shot!'

'Papa defeat you fair and square!'

A yellow halo emerged from its body and fused into Leviathan, who cheered as it felt itself become stronger.

A silver light flashed and a delicate figure appeared not too far from Tang Wulin and Xie Xie. With a green light beneath her feet, Gu Yue reached them with lightning speed.

Behind was a massive figure chasing after her. Xie Xie was genuinely shocked while Tang Wulin gave her a thumb up.

"Good Job!"

"Good Job my ass!"

Tang Wulin suddenly grabs Gu Yue and shifted her close into his embrace, as the bear came closer.

"Alright Xie Xie, it just you and me vs that bear."

"Goddammit! Fine, let's do it!"

Tang Wulin saw the bear claw coming down on him and his free arm shined with golden light, as it turns into the golden dragon claw. He didn't punch back but grab hold of the claw that came down on him.

Bang!

There were vicious cracks formed under him and Gu Yue, as Tang Wulin held on to the terrible claw.

Ice started to form on his arm but he shattered it with his Dragon Slayer Powers. The crystal bear was terribly shocked but before it could make another violent attack, Tang Wulin twisted its arm.

ROAR!

Crystal bear cried out in terrible pain as it saw its arm being twisted and then Xie Xie appeared behind it.

*I will hold it in place, while you aim for its weak spot.*

Xie Xie didn't waste any time as he sends a pair of light blades at the monster back.

Slash!

Roar!

The crystal bear screamed out in rage, as it tried to swing at Xie Xie but Tang Wulin jerk its body towards him. This inadvertently caused it to arm to go off its intended path, allowing Xie Xie to back off for another strike.

The crystal bear was pissed at Tang Wulin, so it swings its arm at him. Tang Wulin smirk as he saw the arm coming towards him, he jerks the arm still in his grasp toward the swinging arm.

The crystal bears witnessing its other arm being swung in the corresponding direction as it another one. It desperately tried changing the directions of it attack but Tang Wulin kept shifting the hand in his grasps toward the swinging arm.

Bang!

Roar!

The crystal bear cried out as it damages its own arm. Then Xie Xie appeared again and slash down hard on its vulnerable spot. This inevitably caused the bear to flinch again and Tang Wulin forcibly pulled it towards him.

With the Bluesilver grass appearing around his hand to the capture hand and chains coming out of the ground to bind its body.

He then jumps over the bear head with Gu Yue still in his embrace and slams down on the bear weak spot with his foot.

Bang!

The crystal bear head was slammed down hard on the ground. Gu Yue was surprised at the amazing chemistry between him and Xie Xie. She already recovered enough soul power but didn't move out of Tang Wulin embrace.

She found his embrace warm and doubt he would do it again, so she stayed while staying alert. Just in case they needed her to come in to save one of them or finish the beast off.

"Yes! It actually dead!"

Xie Xie cheered but then a brilliant yellow light suddenly erupted from the Crystal Bear's body. Tang Wulin instantly jumps off the bear, as the light envelops the area around the bear.

"Few that was a close one."

Xie Xie came running towards them with a smile but then.

PSST!

Xie Xie eyes widen, as he follows a black leg protruding his body and then seven more nimble legs went flawlessly through his body. He slowly turns his head with visible blood leaking out of his mouth and came face to face with a Man Faced Demon Spiders.

Bang!

The Man Faced Demon Spider was pushed back by the hammer whacking it and subsequently dropping Xie Xie. Tang Wulin hastily pushes the exit button for Xie Xie.

He then turned to look at the Man Faced Demon Spider staring at him. He felt a strange kind of emotion, one part rage but the other something else.

"Gu Yue, provide me support."

"Ok!"

'It time to work.'

'Screw off!'

'Yes, Papa!'

Tang Wulin walk towards the Man Faced Demon Spider, as two rings started to rise behind him. Gu Yue was surprised to see Tang Wulin with two rings and one of them was a purple one.

'When did he?'

The Man Faced Demon Spider charge at Tang Wulin with terrifying speed but he remained calm. Gu Yue sent out Icicle to delay it but gasp when the spider just smashes right through it.

'Ok, so it hides is very strong.'

Tang Wulin dodged as the spider legs kept on trying to pierce him. He promptly utilizes his Golden Dragon Body skill, while hiding his Golden Dragon King ring. With his hand coated with scales, he was able to deflect the spider legs and had Leviathan dispelling the poison with 'Aqua Breath'.

Gu Yue quickly soften the earth, promptly capturing one of the spider's legs. Tang Wulin exploited this opportunity, as he had his Bluesilver grass to capture another of its legs and his magic chains to capture the others.

But then the Man Face Eating Spider instantly open up its mouth and spat out a toxic web. Tang Wulin kick off before he was captured by the spider web. He watches as the spider corrodes the bluesliver grass and chain bind.

'So it poison is that potent huh.'

The Spider charged at Gu Yue instead of him, causing her to back off and delay it with fireballs. Tang Wulin sped towards it, exercising his devour skill to gain the attention of the spider. The spider voluntarily stops going after Gu Yue when it felt its life and soul power being drained.

It charged back at Tang Wulin who turned the intangible suction field to that of a cone and dodge the spider web. He instantly summoned a pair of continuous chain that wraps of Gu Yue leg and swings her gracefully over to him.

Gu Yue then started aiming down rains of fireballs and Icicle down on the spider. Tang Wulin dodges the spider leg strikes and then sled under its body. He twists his body around to face the spider as Gu Yue landed next to him.

The Man Faced Eating Spider shriek and charge at them again, with Tang Wulin running toward the forest. The spider ignored Gu Yue in favor of killing Tang Wulin, allowing her to assault it back to slow it down.

The Man Faced Eating Spider kept on chasing him as he moves through the forest, then it rapidly overtook him and aim it legs at his chest. Its nimble legs all coming down together, causing him Tang Wulin smirk.

'Time Magic: Slow Time.'

'Magic Dragon Tornado.'

Instantly the Man Faced Eating Spider slowed down and Tang Wulin formed a tornado in his hands.

The spider felt itself being pulled towards the center of the tornado but then the tornado was gone.

Multiple chains poured out the ground circling around the nimble legs. Then Bluesilver grass also wraps itself around the leg with the power of devour added fiercely to it.

The Spider hastily tried to struggle out of the bind, understanding how dangerous the suction was. It realizes keenly it corrosion was working too slow and it was becoming hard to find the strength to break the bind.

It failed to notice Tang Wulin gently sliding close to its bound leg. He then brought them all together with his hand and then hammered down on the legs.

CRUSH!

The Man Faced Demon Spider shriek as its eight limbs were instantly broken from the terrifying force. Tang Wulin then formed even more chains and grass to bind its body. Gu Yue Also applied ice to its body, freezing it and then he grabs on to it face with one hand.

'Magic Dragon Deadly Fury.'

BOOM!

Both the Golden Dragon Claw and Dragon Slayer Magic combine created a devastating attack. The top half of the Man Faced Demon Spider was smashed to pieces with its blood leaking out.

Tang Wulin was calming himself down, after that. Most of his soul power was drained from operating all of his skills at the same time.

It was only with devour giving him back soul power, that he could keep this up. He then heard his stomach rumble and knew he was hungry from the Golden Dragon Body.

Gu Yue ran up to him to see if he was alright, he waved her off and said they should go. She nodded her head, understanding that his soul power must be all most done now. They both press the exit button and left the place.

CRASH!

Lucky for them, if they stayed a bit longer they would have encounter another dangerous predator.

Tang Wulin saw darkness and then he saw the light. He got out of the metal box and look for Xie Xie. Seeing Xie Xie, he walks towards him and smack him in the head.

Smack!

"Ouch!"

Tang Wulin then proceeds to ignores Xie Xie, not giving him the reason on why he smacked him. Ignoring Zeref knowing smirk, as if he was trying to hint to something.

'What up with them?'

10 minutes before they press the exit button. The staff was already shocked by seeing Tang Wulin kill and absorb a four-thousand-year-old soul beast. Then they saw him one shot a horned dragon and then with the fight with a crystal bear.

The shocked continued with how well Tang Wulin and Xie Xie work together to kill the crystal bear.

Some become more shock at Tang Wulin being able to hold back the crystal bear attack and drag around its body.

Then when the Man-Eating Faced Spider showed up, most of them went pale and Long Henxu grew even paler seeing Xie Xie body being pierced by it. Then they become dumbstruck by Tang Wulin and Gu Yue not pressing the exit button but getting ready to fight it.

The amazing chemistry between them and their abilities to know what the other required. They became to numb to Tang Wulin feats, not being surprised when he smashes the spider leg. They also weren't surprised at how he was able to deflect the spider attacks and not get poison.

But all the staff members and Long Henxu felt their leg tremble from the last attack of Tang Wulin. With Long Henxu questing if he could survive that attack. Nobody saw Wu Zhangkong let out a rare smirk, and he was glad to see his students working together.

The adults seeing all this felt like these nine-year-old kids are truly too much of a monster. They were also shocked by how much they cared for each other.

Tang Wulin willing to guard Gu Yue as she recovers and stays back to take revenge for Xie Xie. Xie Xie having complete trust in Tang Wulin to make sure the monster attacks don't harm. Gu Yue trusting Tang Wulin to protect her as she recovers her soul power.

Wu Zhangkong slowly walked over to the five students, his dull voice filling their ears. "From now on, you five are a mini battle squadron. The captain is Tang Wulin, and the vice-captain is Xie Xie. Let's go."

Properly finished speaking, he began leading them toward the elevator. The group blinks their eyes before following Wu Zhangkong.

'Wait a minute, how did you follow me in spirit ascension platform, Zeref?'

Tang Wulin just remembered Zeref was able to follow him inside the Spirit Pagoda platform.

"Hehe. I just hid inside your consciousness and follow you inside."

Tang Wulin felt like there was more but he let it go. He turned his head to see Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yanzi looking down on the ground with shame but also determination.

They all started heading back to the academy with Wu Zhangkong saying class will resume tomorrow and dismiss everyone.

#

The next day, Wu Zhangkong had everyone discuss their experience in the spirit ascension platform. That was easier said than done, with most of them being traumatized by it. Xie Xie and Wang Jinxi had nightmares about the Man-Eating Faced Spider.

Zhang Yanzi was depressed because of is lackluster performance. Only Tang Wulin and Gu Yue seem fine from yesterday.

Everyone gave their thoughts on the performance and then Wu Zhangkong gave them their score on their performance.

He then proceeds to talk about the fundamental importance of understanding and knowing a soul beast. Being able to know a soul beast, also give one the advantage of knowing a soul master soul skill.

After the review, the students initiate their study. Tang Wulin was more sufficiently interested in the types of soul beast out there and which one would be great to fight.

In a blink of an eye three months as passed, with the students going to the spirit platform every week. Tang Wulin has killed seven thousand years beasts during those time and most of the time because he was transported in their location.

It got to the point where the staff member was scared to let him in because of how bad his luck was.

Today Wu Zhangkong wanted them to take a final exam. He told them it was a two-part exam, first being is surviving in the rebellion spirit ascension platform for an hour.

Wu Zhangkong explains to them the background of the rebellion and how important this opportunity was for them. He didn't tell them the second part because he wanted them to focus on the first one.

Then he gave the students three days to rest before they took the test. Most of the kids were happy to finally get a break, with Wang Jinxi and Zhang Yhanzi cheering. Everyone was feeling the pressure to upgrade their soul spirit, espioully after seeing Tang Wulin with a purple ring out of all them.

Tang Wulin was walking home with two cards in his hands after Mu Chen gave him them to enter the rebelling platform. He figures when he goes with everyone he could take his time and go again to try to evolve Leviathan.

"You're going to give those vests to the other kids?"

"Well, Mu Xi did make them. It would be a waste for them to not utilize them."

"It would be like an extra life for them and I am surprised she went all out for them."

Tang Wulin nodded, the vest was able to withstand half of the strength. Pretty impressive since he could hit over 5,000 kg of force.

In the next two days, Tang Wulin delivered the item to everyone and got ready to enter the rebellion spirit platform. Wu Zhangkong gave everyone a very good motivation for them to survive with, if anyone failed the exam then their vacation is canceled.

Considering this was their first vacation, he got his point across easily. They were led to the room and then after a while was sent into the spirit ascension platform.
