Chapter 48 - Chapter 48: Performance Critique.

"Damn, he's done it!" Xie Xie stared at everything on the screen in amazement, his mouth wide open in surprise.

Wang Jinxi and Tang Wulin also looked extremely shocked. They had fought with the human-faced demon spider before, so they naturally knew how powerful and tricky it was. However, such a ferocious soul beast was killed so easily by Jing Shaoyu and the other two. It seemed that the gap between them and him, and between them and Gu Yue, was still too big.

Yes, it was easy. The process of Jing Shaoyu and the other two killing the Millennium Human-faced Demon Spider seemed so easy in the eyes of everyone in the control room. Facing the repeated attacks of the three people, the Human-faced Demon Spider had almost no ability to resist or run.

Long Hengxu showed a bright smile on his face. Fortunately, fortunately, there was no setback. These three little guys made their school proud!

Wu Zhangkong still had no expression on his face, but the corners of his mouth slightly raised an arc. He was very satisfied with the performance of Jing Shaoyu and the other two.

At this time, a beautiful lady who was also paying attention to Jing Shaoyu also showed a charming smile on her pretty face. She whispered: "Interesting little guy! And that little girl, multi-element control? Interesting."

In the Shengling Platform, Jing Shaoyu and the other two gathered together and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Woo woo~ I was so scared just now," Xu Xiaoyan hugged Jing Shaoyu's arm with a frightened expression and said, "I thought I was going to be eaten by the giant spider."

"It's okay, it's okay." Jing Shaoyu patted Xu Xiaoyan's back and comforted her. "Didn't we kill that big spider? Hahaha, don't be afraid."

"What should we do now?" Gu Yue said. She looked at Xu Xiaoyan holding Jing Shaoyu's arm with an indifferent expression, and an ambiguous emotion rose in her heart.

"Brother Xiaoyu, let's stop here today." Xu Xiaoyan suggested weakly.

"Is it over?" Jing Shaoyu was stunned and then looked at Gu Yue.

"I have no objection." Gu Yue said calmly, "I don't have the energy to continue."

"Okay then." Jing Shaoyu said helplessly. He still wanted to continue, but considering the situation of the two women, he had no choice but to agree.

Xu Xiaoyan and Gu Yue pressed the distress signal one after another and left the Spirit Ascension Platform. After absorbing the spiritual power of the human-faced demon spider, Jing Shaoyu also left the Spirit Ascension Platform.

Standing up from the cold metal cabin, Jing Shaoyu attracted the attention of other people in the room. He left the metal cabin without any psychological fluctuations.

After resting for a while, Wu Changkong led everyone in Class Zero to leave the Spirit Pagoda and return to East China Academy.

In the Class Zero classroom, Wu Zhangkong stood on the podium with an expressionless face while seven students sat below with different reactions.

Wu Zhangkong asked, "What do you think of your first experience on the Spirit Ascension Platform?"

Zhang Yangzi took the initiative to stand up and said, "Teacher Wu, I apologize. I was too reckless and shouldn't have flown so blatantly in the forest."

Wu Zhangkong said calmly, "You should be thankful that this is in the Spirit Ascension Platform. If it were in the real world, you would probably die inexplicably! Remember, you can never take it lightly at any time. You must take this as a warning!"

"Yes." Zhang Yangzi nodded with a serious expression.

"Xie Xie, Tang Wulin, Wang Jinxi, what do you want to say?" Wu Zhangkong then called out the names of the three people, his voice still cold.

"Teacher Wu, we…" Tang Wulin and the other two stood up immediately, their faces filled with expressions of shame, self-blame and regret.

"Xie Xie, as a spirit master of the Agility Attack system, not only did you fail to fulfill your reconnaissance duties, but you were also the first to be killed. It seems that my training of you was too lenient." Wu Zhangkong said coldly.

"Teacher Wu, I…" Upon hearing this, Xie Xie's expression suddenly became distressed, as if he wanted to cry but had no tears.

Wu Zhangkong ignored Xie Xie's reaction, then looked at Tang Wulin and Wang Jinxi and said, "Tang Wulin, tell me, what type of spirit master are you?"

"I am a control-type soul master." Tang Wulin was stunned at first, and then his voice suddenly became hesitant, and he lacked confidence.

"Oh, really?" Wu Zhangkong said softly, "So you are a control-type spirit master? I thought you were an attack-type spirit master like Wang Jinxi? You can't keep your sanity in battle. It seems that your golden dragon bloodline has made you a little blind. Starting tomorrow, you are not allowed to use the golden dragon bloodline in daily training without my permission!"

"I understand, Teacher Wu." Tang Wulin nodded, somewhat frustratedly.

"Wang Jinxi, why did you lose focus during the battle?" Wu Zhangkong asked, "Facing such a dangerous enemy, you were unable to concentrate. What did you want to do?"

"Teacher Wu, I..." Wang Jinxi felt a little aggrieved. He said, "There is a reason why I lost consciousness. It's all Wulin's fault!"

"Me?" Tang Wulin pointed at himself, feeling a little puzzled.

"What's wrong with Tang Wulin?" There was a hint of anger in Wu Zhangkong's eyes. He felt that Wang Jinxi was shirking his responsibility. If Wang Jinxi could not give a reasonable explanation, then he would have to consider whether Wang Jinxi was suitable to stay in Class Zero.

"When Wu Lin and I were fighting side by side, my martial soul was affected by his aura and underwent some changes. I was getting familiar with this change, and that's when I lost consciousness," Wang Jinxi explained.

"The spirit was affected by Tang Wulin's aura?" Wu Zhangkong was a little surprised. The anger in his eyes disappeared, replaced by doubt and thought. He said, "I'll believe you for now. You can go to my office later. Tang Wulin, you can go too."

"Yes!" Wang Jinxi nodded and glanced at Tang Wulin subconsciously.

"Okay." Tang Wulin nodded in agreement, his eyes unconsciously falling on Wang Jinxi.

Finally, Wu Changkong shifted his attention to Jing Shaoyu, Gu Yue and Xu Xiaoyan. The performance of these three people satisfied him the most, especially Jing Shaoyu and Gu Yue, so he decided to comment on Xu Xiaoyan first.

"Xu Xiaoyan, if you want to become a powerful spirit master and not drag others down, you must learn to be strong and independent." Wu Changkong said, "Only when your heart is strong, your people will become strong as well."

"Teacher Wu, I understand." Xu Xiaoyan stood up with his head lowered, his expression seeming a little indifferent.

"Okay, sit down." Wu Zhangkong had no idea whether Xu Xiaoyan had listened to him or not. For such personal character issues, he could only give advice but could not intervene. Everything depended on her own thoughts and efforts.

Wu Zhangkong looked at Jing Shaoyu and Gu Yue and said, "Jing Shaoyu, Gu Yue, you two performed quite well."

Wu Changkong did not give too many comments on Jing Shaoyu and Gu Yue, mainly because their performances were indeed very good. Even Gu Yue, who was cold and lacked a spirit of cooperation at the beginning, had remarkable cooperation with Jing Shaoyu and Xu Xiaoyan when facing the Millennium Human-Faced Demon Spider this time.

Wu Zhangkong finally said to everyone: "From today on, you are a team. Captain Jing Shaoyu, vice captain Gu Yue. Okay, disband."

Squad?

The expressions of the several people were different. Faced with this somewhat sudden but expected news, they did not put up any resistance. After all, there were only seven students in their Class Zero, which was just enough to form a standard seven-person team, including strong attack, agile attack, control and healing departments.

As for the appointment of the captain and vice-captain, no one else had any idea. The abilities of Jing Shaoyu and Gu Yue were obvious to everyone. If they wanted to make a breakthrough, they would have to consider their abilities first.

Wu Changkong left the classroom, and Tang Wulin and Wang Jinxi followed immediately.

"Alas!" Xie Xie sighed and wailed, "Why am I so unlucky!"

"Come on, I'm the unlucky one." Zhang Yangzi echoed, with a sad and angry expression on his face.

"You were just besieged by a group of blue eagles, but I was killed by just one human-faced demon spider!" Xie Xie said, with a trace of fear on his face, "Do you know how terrifying a human-faced demon spider is?"

"What do you mean by 'just one'?" Zhang Yangzi retorted unhappily, "Although the human-faced demon spider is very scary, didn't the squad leader and his men avenge you by killing the human-faced demon spider?"

"Hehe," Xie Xie smiled when he heard this. He asked Xu Xiaoyan, "Xiaoyan, how did you feel when you faced that human-faced demon spider?"

"What feeling? I don't feel anything." Xu Xiaoyan squinted his eyes and said with a smile.

"Is this true?" Xie Xie obviously didn't believe it, but seeing Xu Xiaoyan's expression, he obviously didn't want to tell him, so he could only shake his head helplessly and said, "Forget it, the human-faced demon spider is dead anyway, there's no point in saying this anymore."
