Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: Hundred Thousand Year Soul Beast, Titled Douluo

"Third Brother agreeing is also not a problem."

While Yu Xiaogang was still looking at Xiao Wu beside him,

Xiao Wu had already spoken with a grin.

She wasn't scared at all.

Blue Silver Academy or not, they'd know after a fight.

"Flander, you can also ask the children."

Yu Xiaogang acted as if he wasn't forcing them.

In reality, Tang San and Xiao Wu had already expressed their stance.

With his strong demeanor, what else could the other students say?

Dai Mubai was the first to nod; with his level 37 spirit power, he had some confidence.

Although, that was also partly due to his older age.

Ning Rongrong didn't think much about it either; what if she offended Blue Silver Academy? Would they really beat her up?

If it came to that, she'd just let the people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan handle it.

As they agreed, the remaining people seemed to become unimportant.

Flander was also helpless.

"Alright, after we find a place to stay, we'll go talk to Blue Silver Academy."

"But don't mess around, okay? We're going for a sparring match, not to offend people."

He regretted it immensely now; he shouldn't have been so arrogant and boastful about how only mediocre people were afraid to offend others.

In this continent, truly offending people recklessly could genuinely get you killed.

And the master of Blue Silver City, the Blue Silver King, who was honored by both great empires, had slain a Spirit Douluo when he was only a level 70-something Spirit Saint.

Now, decades later, he was already at the Spirit Douluo level; who knew what his actual strength was?

If they truly offended him, none of them would be able to leave Blue Silver City.

The group searched for lodging, then gathered some information, and headed towards Blue Silver Academy.

Meanwhile, in a teahouse in the city center, Lan Tian, who was sitting by the window observing the outside and sipping tea, looked at the figure beside him.

"Did something happen?"

Although the other party's movements were subtle, having been together for over a century, they were more than just familiar with each other.

"A transformed 100,000-year spirit beast has arrived in the city, and also, a Super Douluo above level 95 has infiltrated the city."

Xiao Lan didn't dare to hide anything and reported what she had just investigated.

The entire Blue Silver City was practically under her surveillance.

Not only because blue silver grass was everywhere, but also because her main body, which almost covered the entire mountain within the city, allowed her to monitor all parts of the city with her strength.

City gates, for example, were naturally a key focus. When the 100,000-year transformed spirit beast appeared, she noticed it, and thus, even the subsequent argument was detected by her.

She even sensed the Super Douluo who followed them into the city, even though he was hidden.

"I suspect he's here for that 100,000-year spirit beast."

Listening to Xiao Lan's words, Lan Tian initially thought it was some conspiracy by the three upper clans or the Spirit Hall, secretly infiltrating.

Later, realizing the situation, he recalled the corresponding existence from his blurry past life memories.

'Could it be Xiao Wu, Tang San, and Tang Hao?'

To be honest, his presence as a great butterfly had brought many changes since he came to this continent.

He hadn't expected them to come here.

After all, the eras were different. Even the oldest, Tang Hao, was just a junior in his eyes, a top genius of an era.

Counting it, he had lived through the era of Qian Daoliu and Tang Chen, and was an even older 'senior' than them.

Of course, they weren't the only famous ones.

He had grown accustomed to watching generations rise to fame and then slowly disappear.

Even he, when chased by the two great empires to be crowned king a few years ago, had become a somewhat famous figure on the continent.

"Where are they going now?"

Regardless of who they were, a 100,000-year transformed spirit beast and a Super Douluo, Lan Tian couldn't pretend not to see them.

"Currently, they have found lodging near Orchid Street, and their destination is Blue Silver Academy."

"Before, I overheard their conversation; they plan to go and spar with Blue Silver Academy."

"Oh, and they also had a conflict with the little girl Xi'er, but no fighting occurred."

Xiao Lan had already gathered clear information, even explaining their conflict and dialogue.

This made Lan Tian think of his great-granddaughter.

In reality, his descendants probably numbered in the thousands by now.

He didn't know all of them individually.

And Lan Xi'er was considered quite talented among the fourth generation, with innate level nine spirit power. Her elder brother also had innate full spirit power, and another had innate level eight spirit power.

So, he still had a strong impression of her.

"Are they back at the academy now? Are Lan Hai and the others at school?"

Lan Tian slowly stood up, a staff made of condensed blue silver grass tapping the ground as he slowly walked out of the teahouse.

If they were there, even if Tang San and his group were somewhat strong, they wouldn't be a match.

"No."

Xiao Lan gave the answer after a quick check.

"Then who is the strongest in the school right now?"

Lan Tian hadn't paid attention to Blue Silver Academy for a long time.

Or rather, he had only visited once when he first established it.

Later, even when sending things, he always sent Xiao Lan.

"Currently, it should be Dugu Yan."

"Dugu Douluo's granddaughter."

As if worried Lan Tian might forget, Xiao Lan added a supplementary remark.

"Dugu Yan, huh? Her spirit seems to have evolved too, right?"

Lan Tian still remembered Dugu Yan.

As the greatest opportunity on the Douluo Continent, after gaining strength, he naturally took action.

The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, along with Dugu Bo, had been brought under his control in a fortunate coincidence.

He had even helped Dugu Bo hunt for his eighth and ninth spirit rings.

The current Dugu Bo was no longer the weakest Titled Douluo from before.

His spirit power level had also reached level 95, belonging to the Super Douluo class.

He was also the only Titled Douluo in Blue Silver City, at least on the surface.

"That's right, her contribution was significant in reaching the top two in the Young Spirit Master Grand Competition a few years ago."

"In this Young Spirit Master Grand Competition, we might even be able to surpass Spirit Hall and take first place."

Xiao Lan clearly admired Dugu Yan.

She just hadn't realized that, under normal circumstances, their biggest enemy in the next competition might not be Spirit Hall.

However, now, it seemed that nothing was normal anymore.

With the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well gone, given Tang San's situation, if he didn't absorb spirit rings for his second spirit, the people from other academies would probably beat him into depression.

At least those elemental academies would be enough to make them depressed, let alone Spirit Hall...

Walking on the road, Lan Tian also recalled many dusty memories...

He had no ill will towards Tang San and the others, but no particular fondness either.

It was a matter of: as long as they didn't provoke him and there were no intertwined interests, he would treat them as non-existent.

But now, they had delivered themselves to his doorstep, and there was a 100,000-year spirit beast, so he had to take a look.

Having been in this world for a century, he didn't have the naive idea that spirit beasts were cute and shouldn't be killed.

Even with Xiao Lan beside him, when he first started raising her, it was for absorbing spirit rings, and he had made that clear from the very beginning.

It was just that by now, their feelings for each other had indeed grown deeper.

Not just Xiao Lan, but on the peaks of Blue Silver City, there were also many spirit beasts he had been feeding.

These creatures were all his strategic resources.

When his cultivation speed couldn't keep up in the past, he would study and dabble in these miscellaneous things.

"Is that little poisoner busy right now?"

Thinking that a battle might break out in the city soon, Lan Tian thought of Dugu Bo.

With his spirit, he might be able to strike first and render people powerless before a fight even began.

"Dugu Douluo is currently entertaining people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan..."

"That Ning Fengzhi is really annoying; he keeps trying to win over Dugu Douluo."

Xiao Lan reported while speaking.

Clearly, the presence of those Titled Douluo couldn't be hidden from her.

"That's normal."

"I trust that little poisoner."

Lan Tian's trust wasn't solely due to his past life memories.

It also came from decades of interaction, knowing what kind of person he was.

His kindness to Dugu Bo wasn't just about helping him acquire spirit rings and resolve his spirit's flaws.

He had even saved his son and daughter-in-law, who were originally destined to die.

No need to mention anything else; just these acts alone were enough for Dugu Bo to pledge loyalty, and for Dugu Bo alone, he was not allowed to betray him.

He hadn't even made demands on other members of Dugu Bo's family.

It was all voluntary; they could join Blue Silver City if they wanted, or leave as they pleased.

If something still went wrong, it would only mean he had been blind, and then he would have to clean house.

But for now, there were other things to do first.

"Contact him and keep the people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan stable."

"No matter what happens, don't let them get involved."
