Soul Land 5: The Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 75: She Flew Away?

Tianpeng was the summit of a great mountain nearly two thousand meters high, and it was their destination for this “hiking trip.”

The reason it was named Tianpeng became clear to Tang San upon his arrival. A large tree with a canopy nearly a hundred meters in diameter covered most of the peak.[1]

Seeing Tang San climbing the mountain, Cheng Zicheng couldn't help but be surprised, and she laughed. “Pretty good endurance! I thought I'd see you again on the way back."

Mu Enqing was also there with her. Seeing Tang San approach, he nodded at him. Without a word, he patted Tang San on the shoulder.

Immediately, the power left inside him by Mu Yunyu vanished, and Tang San could feel that the Mysterious Heaven Technique was no longer suppressed.

Tang San had wondered how people could return before noon with the weights and their abilities sealed. Now, it seemed that the restriction would be lifted upon reaching Tianpeng.

"Let's go. Hurry back and see if we can still get food," Cheng Zicheng said, pulling Tang San and showing him the way down the mountain.

As she leaped down from the mountaintop, an extraordinary scene unfolded. A layer of orange-yellow light shone around Cheng Zicheng. In the next instant, she spread her arms, and beautiful orange feathers sprouted from them. Her hair also turned orange, and it was decorated with three feathers

Flapping her arms, which had now transformed into wings, she glanced back at Tang San and smiled sweetly. "I'll go ahead~"

With these words, she glided down the mountain, quickly becoming a tiny dot in the distance.

Fly? Did she fly away? Isn't that cheating? Tang San opened his mouth, unsure of what to say.

What kind of Demonic God Transformation was that? Orange feathers and the ability to fly? Tang San had never seen such a demon. But from the change in aura after her transformation, Tang San could feel it was a powerful Demonic God Transformation. Moreover, the ability to fly was extremely rare.

Senior sister, I'll choose you if my fifth bloodline imprint doesn't work out. Flight was actually one of the abilities Tang San desired the most.

Tang San took a deep breath.

A swirling green light surrounded him, and he also suddenly leaped from the mountaintop. His eyes sparkled with Discerning Eye as the abundant wind element of the mountain converged around him. Feeling lighter, Tang San rapidly descended the mountain. Under the enhancement of the wind element, his speed was akin to a swift breeze. Although not as fast as Cheng Zicheng's actual flight, it was still considerably quick.

As he watched Tang San leave, Mu Enqing's eyes showed a hint of surprise.

Upon reaching this point by sheer physical effort, any student would be exhausted. Unsealing them at this moment to regain control of their power helped them appreciate the preciousness of the Demonic God Transformation and better understand their bloodline power on the way back. This was a crucial reason for the grueling program they were enduring.

With that said, when he spotted Tang San running toward them, Mu Enqing felt that although the child was somewhat tired, it wasn't severe, especially considering he was only nine years old! And now, when he left, it was clear that his body didn't undergo any changes due to activating the Demonic God Transformation, and yet his control over the wind element was powerful, seemingly surpassing the fourth order.

Initially, when the teachers learned that Tang San's ability was the Wind Wolf Transformation, they weren't too impressed with him. If not for the fact that Tang San was only nine, they might not have allowed a child with such an average Demonic God Transformation to join the Redemption Academy.

Although Redemption Academy was small, with only a dozen students, it held a very high status within the Redemption Society. It existed specifically to train elite upper-echelon talent for the society. Across the entire Daemon Continent, there were only nine Redemption Academies, all managed by the core members of the Redemption Society.

At this moment, when Mu Enqing saw Tang San using the Wind Wolf Transformation, controlling the wind element to enhance his speed, his perception changed somewhat.

Based on his information, Tang San's control over Wind Blade was exceptionally skillful. His spiritual energy had to be far above the ordinary, which was also evident from his ability to cause Du Bai's Celestial Fox Vision to backfire.

Celestial Fox Vision made Du Bai's spiritual energy much more substantial than that of others at the same order, and for Tang San to cause it to backfire, his spiritual energy had to be at least double Du Bai's. This was indeed intriguing.

The aspect that made the teachers most interested in Tang San was the fact that the mayor had taken him as a disciple. They were pretty familiar with the mayor and his quirks.

For lunch! Tang San sprinted all the way.

He now had a deeper understanding of the physical training class. The journey there was a physical fitness test, while the return was more about one's special abilities. This wasn't exactly fair, but it was an interesting form of training.

Now, his bloodline power felt intensely hot, and the soreness in his muscles was very noticeable. Once the Mysterious Heaven Technique was unsealed, its perpetual cycling nature within the body facilitated a rapid recovery from the previous exertion, benefiting his physical training significantly. Especially since he had just broken through to the fifth order, his body needed to adapt to the fifth level of the Mysterious Heaven Technique as well. Today's physical training accelerated this process and even the speed at which he absorbed the remaining bloodline energy he had from the Wind Wolf Town Lord.

While they all moved along the same path all the way to Tianpeng, the return was bound to be different. Cheng Zicheng, who could fly, would certainly take a different route from Tang San, who ran on the ground like a wolf. Thus, Tang San didn't encounter anyone else on his way back. Well, that was also because...everyone except Du Bai had already arrived by the time he returned to the academy.

Soaked with sweat and breathing heavily, Tang San pulled the weighted blocks from his vest, feeling helpless, realizing he might not get to eat today.

He might have had a chance if he hadn't stayed behind with Du Bai earlier. But this made it clear that none of his fellow disciples at the academy could be taken lightly. On his way back, leveraging his fifth-order cultivation and the speed boost from the wind element, he was pretty fast, nearly reaching eighty percent of his peak speed. Yet, he still couldn't compensate for the distance he'd fallen behind, much less surpass the others.

The other students at Redemption Academy were also somewhat surprised to see Tang San return so quickly. After all, he was only nine years old!

Mu Yunyu hadn't returned, and just as Tang San was about to silently return to his room to wash up and endure hunger, Guan Longjiang approached him.

"It's your first training day, so you won't be punished today. Go wash up, and then join everyone for a meal."

1. The name of the peak is written as 天蓬, with the first character meaning “heaven” and the second referring to luxuriant vegetation. ☜
