Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, Fang Yang had spent three years at Hongshan Academy.
The current Fang Yang had long shed the immaturity of his past.
His figure was tall and slender, his appearance even more handsome and outstanding, with a sharp, heroic aura between his brows.
With such a distinguished demeanor, he would surely become the object of admiration for many young women in a few years.
In his spirit power Cultivation, Fang Yang had not been negligent in the slightest.
Relying on the time acceleration effect of the supreme treasure fire pearl, at only nine years old, his spirit power had already reached the Realm of a Level 29 attack system Spirit Grandmaster.
He was merely one step away from becoming a Spirit Elder!
At the same time, he possessed a fire-attribute Spirit, giving him powerful offensive capabilities. Such talent was unmatched within the entire Hongshan Academy.
As the most dazzling Genius in the Elementary Soul Master Class, his studies were about to conclude, and he would soon step through the doors of the Intermediate Soul Master Academy.
Small cities like Aolai City did not have Intermediate Soul Master Academies.
According to custom, exceptionally talented students would be recommended to academies in medium-sized cities, where the admission requirements were extremely strict: not only did their spirit power need to reach Level 10, but they also had to successfully achieve Fusion with a Soul Spirit.
Only then would they be eligible to apply.
Generally speaking, those who could Breakthrough to Level 10 before graduating from an Elementary Soul Master Academy would receive a recommendation letter from the academy, making their entry into an Intermediate Academy much smoother.
A recommendation letter represented talent and potential, a true seed of hope.
As for those students who reached Level 10 only after the age of ten, they would have to undergo even more rigorous assessments to secure admission.
These conditions were, of course, no problem for Fang Yang.
However, in this graduating class of twenty in the Soul Master Class, besides the Genius Fang Yang, several others had also reached Level 10 in spirit power.
Aside from Tang Wulin, the other few were beyond Fang Yang's expectations.
Of course, in Hongshan Academy, not only was there the Genius Fang Yang, but there was also a "waste," referring to Tang Wulin.
Tang Wulin's Cultivation speed surprised all his classmates. With an Innate spirit power of only Level 3, he managed to Cultivate to Level 10 within three years, using the Blue Silver Grass, a supposedly useless Spirit. This was not considered fast among Spirit Masters; at most, it was average.
However, for the Blue Silver Grass, a useless Spirit, to Cultivate to Level 10 in three years, that speed was not slow at all.
One must know that in the class, there were not only those with higher Innate spirit power than Tang Wulin but also those with better Spirits.
Without exception, only a few were faster than Tang Wulin.
Although Tang Wulin could not be compared to those Geniuses, he was still above average in the class.
At this point, a certain Grandmaster would say, "There are no useless Spirits, only useless Spirit Masters."
Of course, if you truly believed the Grandmaster, then you would be useless for life.
If Tang Wulin weren't the protagonist, if his Bloodline weren't extraordinary, how could any other passerby with Blue Silver Grass Cultivate so quickly?
Now, Tang Wulin only needed a Soul Spirit to Breakthrough to a Spirit Master.
Only after achieving Fusion with a Soul Spirit could one enter the true Spirit Master Realm.
It was just like ten thousand years ago, where one could not Breakthrough and become a Spirit Master without hunting Spirit Beasts and achieving Fusion with a spirit ring.
A Spirit Scholar without a Soul Spirit was not much stronger than an ordinary person, but upon becoming a Spirit Master, possessing one's own Soul Spirit and Spirit Ability, that was an entirely different World.
As Fang Yang stepped out of the classroom, he heard Tang Wulin's voice from behind him.
He turned around to see Tang Wulin catching up.
"Fang Yang, you're going to see the Dean for a recommendation letter, right? Take me with you," Tang Wulin scratched his head, a hint of honest simplicity in his smile.
"Let's go," Fang Yang nodded slightly.
Soon, the two arrived at the Dean's office door, and Fang Yang raised his hand to knock gently.
"Come in," the Dean's gentle voice came from within.
Fang Yang pushed the door open, with Tang Wulin following closely behind.
Inside the Dean's office, the Dean put down the files in his hand and looked up to see Fang Yang. He greeted them warmly: "Ah, it's student Fang Yang, and student Tang Wulin. Please have a seat."
"Thank you, Dean," the two said in unison, then sat down on the sofa.
Then, Fang Yang got straight to the point: "Dean, we are here for the recommendation letters."
"Three years have passed in a flash. I still remember when Teacher Lin Ximeng brought you and your sister to the academy for registration; it feels like it was just yesterday."
The Dean was filled with emotion, his gaze lingering on Fang Yang's face.
Fang Yang smiled and said, "Dean, I'm just going to study outside; it's not like I'm not coming back. Besides, my mother still teaches at the academy."
"Haha, that's true."
The Dean laughed heartily, then took out two recommendation letters from a drawer and said seriously, "Fang Yang, take this recommendation letter. You are the most outstanding student Hongshan Academy has ever had. I look forward to you shining brightly in the Intermediate Academy."
"I will certainly live up to the Dean's expectations," Fang Yang took the letter with both hands and bowed respectfully.
The Dean turned to Tang Wulin, his eyes filled with encouragement: "Student Tang Wulin, although your Spirit is Blue Silver Grass, your efforts are evident to all. I hope you never forget your original aspiration, continue to work hard, and press forward bravely."
Saying this, he handed out the other recommendation letter.
Tang Wulin took it with both hands and bowed deeply: "Thank you, Dean."
"Student Tang Wulin, could I please ask you to wait outside for a moment? I have a few things I need to discuss privately with student Fang Yang," the Dean said gently.
Hearing this, Tang Wulin nodded and quietly closed the door as he left.
After Tang Wulin left, the Dean took a card from his drawer and pushed it across to Fang Yang: "This contains one million federal currency, password six sixes. Consider it your graduation gift."
Fang Yang was stunned for a moment: "Dean, this is..."
He had accepted the goodwill of Tower Master Liu Yang of the Spirit Transfer Pagoda, but that was an internal matter of the organization after all.
However, this generous gift from the Dean left him momentarily unsure how to respond.
"This is also a small token of my regard; please accept it. And you are the pride of our Aolai City. I believe that after you leave, you will surely forge your own World!" the Dean said kindly.
Fang Yang's throat tightened, the words of refusal stuck in his mouth. In the end, they transformed into a deep bow: "Student Fang Yang will certainly not fail the Dean's trust."
"Good child."
The Dean nodded with satisfaction, stood up, and patted his shoulder: "Go, witness all the wonders of this World! Remember, if you get homesick, come back and visit. Aolai City will always be your home."
"Dean, I will," Fang Yang solemnly promised, then turned and left.
The Dean watched Fang Yang's departing figure, murmuring softly: "The fledgling eagle must eventually spread its wings and fly high..."
After Fang Yang came out, he saw Tang Wulin leaning against the corridor railing, waiting.
"Wu Lin, you haven't left yet?" Fang Yang asked, a little surprised.
Tang Wulin turned his head at the sound, revealing a sincere smile: "Of course I was waiting for you."
"Wu Lin, we've got the recommendation letters, let's go," Fang Yang said to Tang Wulin.
Tang Wulin nodded, a flicker of anticipation in his eyes: "Mm, tomorrow we should prepare to buy a Soul Spirit."
