Chapter 92: Let me participate?
"Good! Good! Good! It's good that Xiaogang is willing to come back. Even if we have to wait two years, it's fine."
Upon hearing the good news brought back by Yu Tianyun, Yu Yuanzhen was overjoyed and cheered repeatedly, his face beaming with undisguised happiness.
Seeing his grandfather so happy, Yu Tianyun explained to him why Yu Xiaogang had decided to return two years later:
"The next All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament will begin in two years. The reason why Second Uncle chose to come back in two years is because he hopes that his disciple can also participate in this tournament. As soon as the tournament ends, he will come back."
"Time flies so fast! The Soul Master Tournament, jointly organized by the two great empires and the Spirit Hall, is about to begin again!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Yuanzhen narrowed his eyes, stroked his beard, and sighed deeply:
"Sigh, every tournament produces many talented individuals, but the championships are almost always swept by the Spirit Hall. Our Thunder Academy has never won a single championship!"
Yu Tianyun also felt helpless about this.
After all, the Spirit Hall is an organization that has recruited almost 90% of the geniuses from the common people on the Douluo Continent, so the young spirit masters who participate in the competition are naturally very powerful.
There's nothing we can do about it; they're not prejudiced against sectarianism, while the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect, though called a sect, is really just a family.
Suddenly, a strange smile appeared on Yu Yuanzhen's face again, and he said:
"Tianyun! Why don't you participate in this competition too? It would enhance our sect's reputation!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Tianyun was somewhat surprised, and thought to himself:
"Is Grandpa getting cocky again?"
He then gave a wry smile and said:
"Grandpa, if I participate in the Soul Master Competition, aren't you afraid that I'll expose my Soul Ring configuration? And that it might attract constant assassination attempts from the Spirit Hall!"
Yu Yuanzhen, still smiling, stroked his long beard and said:
"Don't worry, Grandpa will be there to watch the Soul Master Competition. I'll invite your father-in-law, Old Swordsman, and Old Poison Master along."
"With your father-in-law's assistance, even if the Spirit Hall dares to send assassins, they will surely be killed."
"With your father-in-law's help, even if Qian Daoliu himself came, Grandpa could hold his own for a couple of moves!"
"Besides, they won't openly break ties with us, and their underhanded tactics aren't enough to threaten you."
"For them to successfully assassinate you, they'll have to send a Title Douluo! If they dare to send one, we'll take the opportunity to eliminate them! Let them taste the pain!"
After careful consideration, Yu Tianyun finally understood. They were using him as bait to set up a sting operation!
But after careful consideration, this move could actually succeed.
With Bibi Dong's current strength, she can contend with Yu Yuanzhen even without Ning Fengzhi's assistance. Qian Daoliu doesn't really care about anything, and he only wants Qian Renxue to inherit the divine position.
If the Spirit Hall were to attempt another assassination attempt this time, just like they did with Tang San, and send out Ghost and Chrysanthemum again, then this time they would probably not return alive.
Even if the Spirit Hall is enraged and launches a full-scale war, they will still have a certain degree of self-defense capability.
With Dugu Bo around, they can send as many soul masters below the Title Douluo level as they want, and they have nothing to fear from soul masters at the Title Douluo level.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School definitely has more than just Ning Fengzhi as a Soul Saint with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul. With each of their Title Douluos paired with one, even if they can't defeat the opponent, the difference won't be too significant!
Having understood all this, Yu Tianyun was no longer troubled and nodded, saying:
"Alright, Grandpa, I'll participate in this year's competition, but which academy should I join?"
"Our sect has two academies: Thunder Academy and Blue Tyrant Academy, founded by your second grandfather's illegitimate daughter, Liu Erlong."
When Liu Erlong was mentioned, Yu Yuanzhen's face showed a slight change, but he quickly recovered, clearly recalling the things about his youngest son. He paused and continued:
"Ever since your eldest brother broke through level 50, I had him leave the Heaven Dou Royal Academy and join the Thunder Academy, teaming up with Tianxin to prepare for this competition. Do you want to join too?"
"What?! Big Brother actually withdrew from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"
Yu Tianyun had some doubts in his heart and pondered to himself:
"I didn't expect my elder brother to withdraw from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy so readily. Didn't he object?"
"Could it be that he wasn't as close to the other members of the Royal Fighting Team in this life?"
"That's true. My brother is already a Soul King, and the gap between him and others is too big. It's natural that it's hard for them to hang out together anymore, and it's possible that their relationship isn't as good."
"And Yan Yan is already my woman, so my brother doesn't have any ties with her over there."
"Forget it, I don't want to think about it anymore. It's good that my older brother joined Thunder Academy. With my older brother's addition, plus Yu Tianxin who has eaten top-grade medicinal herbs, the strength of Thunder Academy's participating teams will definitely increase significantly. Apart from not having a spirit fusion skill, their strength on paper is not inferior to the participating teams of Spirit Hall."
"But should I join them? Maybe not. I'm too strong; I don't need teammates at all. I'd better not steal their thunder!"
Yu Tianyun looked at Yu Yuanzhen and said:
"Grandpa, I want to join Blue Tyrant Academy."
Upon hearing Yu Tianyun's answer, Yu Yuanzhen understood. With Yu Tianyun's strength, it wouldn't make much difference which team he joined. He then smiled and said:
"Okay, then you can report for duty in a few days! If there's nothing else, you can go back!"
Yu Tianyun, of course, had something to do, and said somewhat awkwardly:
"Grandpa, I've brought two more granddaughters-in-law back for you this time, but their identities are a bit troublesome."
Yu Yuanzhen said irritably:
"You brat, you always go out and flirt with women, just like your great-uncle! Don't worry, the Star Luo Empire wouldn't dare to act recklessly here. Go back now."
Yu Tianyun remained, and continued to ask:
"Grandpa, where did my dad and mom go?"
Speaking of this, Yu Yuanzhen perked up and laughed:
"Since consuming the immortal herb, Xiao Feng and his wife have made rapid progress in their cultivation. They have been diligently cultivating at the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, and it's estimated that they could become Title Douluos within ten years!"
"What?"
Yu Tianyun was very surprised to hear the news, but he was also happy for his parents. The immortal herb had indeed not disappointed him.
Yu Yuanzhen was overjoyed. The thought of his son and daughter-in-law soon becoming Title Douluos filled him with anticipation of the future prosperity of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan.
"Five Title Douluos from one family? No, Tianyun, Tianheng, and even Tianxin will all become Title Douluos in the future! That will make it an eight-title family!"
Thinking of this, Yu Yuanzhen couldn't stop smiling.
Yu Tianyun didn't intend to stay here any longer and keep entertaining this old geezer, saying:
"Grandpa, I'm going back now!"
Yu Yuanzhen casually waved his hand and said:
"Okay, let's go!"
Immediately, Yu Tianyun turned and left. The thought of the warm and beautiful woman waiting for him at home made him quicken his pace.
