The conductor smiled sweetly and said, “In order to welcome you to Glory City, the West Peak Continent’s soul pet research base plans to hold a competition for the graduates from your respective cities who are coming to participate in the competition.”

“I believe you’ve all awakened your martial souls. From here, it’s about a hundred miles from the border city defense line of Glory Capital. This competition requires you to use your soul pets and martial souls to reach the border city defense line of Glory Capital as quickly as possible.”

“If you can arrive in half an hour, the West Peak Continent’s soul pet base and our Glory Capital will give you a generous gift. It will increase the basic points of your Aviation Cup by ten points.”

“The top three with the fastest speed will also receive additional rewards!”

“Please and your soul pets run freely through the vast wilderness!”

Upon hearing this, everyone exclaimed.

Half an hour, a hundred miles.

This was difficult and challenging for them, but not impossible!

To some soul pets, it was even very simple…

Teacher Zheng frowned and immediately walked over with a few teachers. He discussed something with the conductor.

After a while, they turned around and smiled.

“It’s time to test you! Get off the carriage and prepare to set off!”

Many students got out excitedly.

It had been a week since their martial soul awakened.

At this moment, their martial soul senses were gradually raised.

Although their cultivation had not begun, they had already learned a little about the use of martial souls from various channels.

Many students came down one after another.

They all summoned their martial souls.

“Haha, my martial soul is a pair of Mountainous Running Shoes! After I change into it for my soul pet, its speed will increase by several times! I want to be in the top three!”

“Trash, my martial soul is the Phoenix Bicycle. I’ll f*cking carry my soul pet and fly!”

“Bicycle? Haha, my martial soul is Elemental Tornado. I’ll cooperate with my soul pet and ride the clouds! I’ll fly at a low altitude!”

“None of you can. Your martial souls are far inferior! An equipment martial soul is not as good as a spirit martial soul in the early stages. I’ll use my cheetah possession! With my soul pet hanging on my waist, I can travel a hundred kilometers straight.”

“F*ck, my martial soul is the Diamond Hammer. It’s so heavy. If I materialize it, how can I run?”

…

Among the students, some were happy, while others were upset.

Some people’s martial souls were simple and not high grade.

But at this moment, it was extremely useful.

The form determined its use.

For example, the Water Spirit Kettle, the Legacy grade martial soul of Xu Haifeng’s, could not be of much use now.

However, it was a spirit martial soul.

Compared to an equipment martial soul, the greatest benefit was that it could undergo possession in the early stages.

After possessing the body, it could bring about a powerful physical improvement and many effects for the Contract Soul Master.

However, their martial souls had not cultivated much at the moment. The soul power they absorbed was also absorbed independently by their martial souls.

There was no soul power of a certain level.

It could not be used for a long time, at most two to three minutes.

However, as long as it rested for a while, it could continue using it. Half an hour was not very difficult.

Many students breathed in the fresh air. There were more than thirty city guards around them, their wings flashing as they followed.

“The soul wings on these professional Contract Soul Masters are truly handsome. It’s good that I can have them myself.”

Xu Haifeng planned to move. He looked at the soul wings on the professional Contract Soul Masters with envy.

Flying was not difficult for Contract Soul Masters.

If the first soul pet was a flying-type soul pet, as long as he condensed a soul ring and attached it to his martial soul, while having a sufficiently deep life contract, there was a high chance that the Contract Soul Master would obtain a pair of energy soul wings in the early stages.

That was the power within a soul pet. It was a powerful effect that was added to the Contract Soul Master.

In the ancient era, people called the source of this power the soul bone.

It was obtained through the probability of killing soul beasts.

The modern world was different.

There were naturally many benefits.

Many students wanted a flying-type soul pet as their first soul pet because they wanted to obtain a pair of soul wings as soon as possible.

Then, they would soar in the sky.

A professional Contract Soul Master would have a pair of soul wings regardless of their martial soul.

Wang Che remembered that the first pair of soul wings he saw was on Li Yanming.

It was indeed cool.

Of course, there were many ways to fly. Soul wings were the most direct, cool, and practical.

It was highly praised by many Contract Soul Masters.

“Old Wang, I’ll go first.”

Xu Haifeng charged forward with his Flower Fairy.

The students left quickly.

Before long, only a few students remained.

After a while, only Wang Che and… Lin Xi did not leave.

“Student, this is a competition. Work hard and complete the competition. There will be rewards.”

The conductor hurriedly said, “Don’t be afraid of the danger on the way. There are dozens of professional Contract Soul Masters accompanying us. They’re all the city guards of Glory Capital.”

Wang Che nodded and said, “Something must have happened, right?”

The lady was stunned. She waved her hand and said, “How could that be…”

Before she could finish, she was interrupted by a voice.

“Firstly, this competition was too sudden, and the rules were not detailed and fair enough. It was obviously held at the last minute. It was more like it was to dismiss the students.”

“Secondly, the train stopped a few minutes ago. It encountered an urgent accident and now you suddenly announced this competition. This shows that there’s an even bigger problem.”

“Thirdly, there are a total of 50 Contract Soul Masters on your floating train this time, but only 35 of them flew out to protect us. Where did the other 15 go?”

Wang Che did not say that.

It was Lin Xi.

“The two of you…” Teacher Zheng walked over and looked at the two of them with an ugly expression, “I told you to participate in the competition obediently. What are you showing off here? Do you think you’re very powerful?”

“Teacher, I just want to know the truth. Once I know, I’ll leave immediately,” Lin Xi said seriously, “I think Wang Che should think that way too.”

Wang Che coughed and thought to himself, ‘That’s not entirely true.’

Teacher Zheng glanced at the conductor.

“Hey… you students, it’s not good to be too smart.”

She sighed, “Alright, we encountered a wild soul pet attack. The maglev path, before passing normally, cleanses the surrounding soul beast groups. There’s only one possibility of encountering an attack.”

“Were you attacked by terrorists?” Wang Che asked.

“You…” The conductor looked at Wang Che in surprise.

A student could think of this?

“Will the soldiers guarding the border of Glory Capital arrive in half an hour?” Wang Che asked.

“How do you know?” The conductor frowned.

“Your competition will last for half an hour. Clearly, you want to arrive at the border of Glory Capital quickly in half an hour.”

Wang Che asked, “Did the other tracks encounter similar situations?”

“???” The conductor couldn’t remain calm.

“The soldiers at the border can arrive in a few minutes at a hundred kilometers. Now, it will take half an hour. This means that they have fewer people and need to transfer troops from other places to support them. At this time, the sudden decrease in numbers can only be due to problems in the other tracks and need to be rescued.” Wang Che muttered.

It seemed that those Ghost Disciples did not give up.

When he was in Skyheart City, they were afraid of the power of the Eastern War Zone and did not dare to make a move.

As soon as they left the city, they started moving.

The timing was impeccable.

The floating rail lines of Glory Capital were densely packed, covering the West Peak Continent.

There were dozens of them.

Some were still transcontinental tracks that were running at all times, sending people to and fro.

If they wanted to target certain routes, it was easy to cause problems.

“How did those soul pets suddenly attack you?” Wang Che asked, “How was the situation at the back end?”

“It’s not very optimistic.”

The conductor subconsciously said, “The wild soul beasts that attacked us are an extremely terrifying Thousand-legged Soldier Ant. They are extremely fast and have astonishing biting abilities. Even if the tracks are made of black steel, three to five of them can corrode it easily… The most troublesome thing is that they have contracted an illness. They are stronger and not to be trifled with.”

“Illness?”

“Have you heard of Black Blood Cancer?”

Wang Che was slightly stunned. He had heard of this illness before.

His mother had been wondering why the green caterpillar grew so quickly and had checked online.

Then, a doctor replied that it might be Black Blood Cancer…

This was a very special soul pet disease.

When one fell ill, the life force in their blood would be rapidly consumed, and their soul power cultivation would increase abnormally!

It was difficult to see any symptoms in the short term. When its entire body turned black, it would be a sign of late stage. At that time, it would explode and die.

Simply put, when the illness acted up, its cultivation level increased abnormally.

Moreover, the time was extremely short. There was not even time to save them.

“Not long after the train restarted, we discovered that a few Thousand-legged Soldier Ants had already climbed up. When we discovered them, they had already gnawed at the train’s power system. The speed will greatly decrease, and in a few minutes, it will completely stop running. We’re worried that the Thousand-legged Soldier Ants will catch up…”

The conductor sighed, “We can only discuss this with the headquarters in Glory City. We can use this method to quickly dismiss the students without causing panic. We can temporarily resist the Thousand-legged Soldier Ants and wait for reinforcements.”

“When the first train was attacked, we had already requested support. However, the border army said that they had already gone to provide support elsewhere and are currently transferring manpower… No matter how fast it is, it will take more than half an hour to provide support.”

After the conductor finished speaking, Wang Che immediately asked, “So, none of those terrorists have appeared yet?”

The conductor said, “They have already appeared among those Thousand-legged Soldier Ants. But those ants did not attack them. It is very likely that they caused the chaos.”

“Thousand-legged Soldier Ant… Black Blood Cancer…”

Wang Che closed his eyes.

Before coming to Glory Capital, Li Yanming found him and asked if Wang Che wanted a private car to pick him up.

They would also be accompanied by a powerful army Contract Soul Master.

This was to prevent any accidents from happening on the way out of the city.

Those Ghost Disciples might attack him.

Wang Che refused.

The reason was simple.

That would be too obvious.

With the cunningness of those Ghost Disciples, when they saw that situation, they would definitely not target him.

One had to know that the goal of the Ghost Disciples was to create chaos in society and kill human geniuses to cause huge panic.

If he, their big target, was so well protected, those Ghost Disciples would know that there was no chance.

They would definitely transfer the hatred directly and target the other students who left the city.

It was also the end of the comprehensive test. It was impossible to hide which city had a genius.

Moreover, he had to leave the city to participate in the Aviation Cup competition in Glory City.

‘If I can’t kill you, Wang Che, then I’ll go and kill other students. You can’t stop me, right?’

Previously at the Floating Forest, they had suffered such a huge loss in the West Peak Continent. Since Wang Che could not be killed, they could only target other students.

It would be even more troublesome when the time came.

Wang Che was the only one protected by a car.

What was the use?

In that case, Wang Che directly came out. This way, if anything happened, the Ghost Disciples would naturally focus on him.

They would spare no effort to target him.

He was the young hero, Wang Batian, after all.

Since he enjoyed this fame, he should bear the corresponding responsibility.

“You can’t stop them.” Wang Che said, “Let the city guards return first. Don’t lose your life in vain.”

“No!” The conductor refused decisively, “They can at least delay for a while. If the Thousand-legged Soldier Ants catch up, the students won’t be able to escape!”

“Moreover, you’re only a student. Hurry up and leave! Don’t waste time here.”

Wang Che said without thinking, “What if I can lure them away?”

The moment he said that, they were stunned.

“You?” The conductor was stunned. “How can a student like you lure them away?”

When Wang Che saw this, he could only cough and say, “To be honest, I’m Wang Batian.”

After just a few words, their expressions changed drastically…
