Titan's eyes were full of excitement: "It is... it is..."
Titan was so excited that he was incoherent.
A deep and powerful voice echoed again: "Do you want me to come out and spar with you?"
Upon hearing this, Titan was startled and quickly shook his head: "No... no need, how could this old servant be your opponent? I admit my guilt!"
Bang!
Saying this, except for Ye Yu, to the astonishment of everyone, Titan directly knelt on one knee.
"Dad, is that you?"
Tang San found the voice very familiar, much like his father's. Although his father's voice used to be lazy, this voice was extremely domineering and powerful, yet he felt it couldn't be wrong.
Tang San was excited, but there was no response.
"Master, are you still here?" Titan respectfully looked around and asked, but still, there was no response.
Titan knew that the other party had left.
Titan stood up, faced Tang San, and knelt on one knee again: "This old servant Titan greets the Young Master!"
Tang San was stunned, what was going on?
Ye Yu teased from the side: "Still want to fight?"
"No... no more fighting." Titan shook his head repeatedly.
Looking at the bewildered Tang San, Titan was surprised: Does he not know his own identity?
Titan went to a room with Tang San privately, where Tang San learned that his father was the Vast Heaven Douluo. When asked in detail, Titan said nothing more, since Tang Hao hadn't told him himself.
After coming out, Titan kicked Tino to kneel down and said to Ye Yu: "I'm very sorry, it was our fault. We were too impulsive, and I understand that it was my grandson who provoked you first."
Tino was covered in cold sweat, thankful that the opponent was strong. Otherwise, if he had hurt Tang San, wouldn't he have faced...
Thinking of this, Tino shivered.
"Since you know Xiao San, let's forget it." Ye Yu didn't mind.
Although it was Talon who provoked them first, Talon was honest enough. His father and grandfather stepping in wasn't his idea either.
Afterwards, Ye Yu and others continued their daily cultivation. Tang San went to the medicine garden, which was no longer useful to Ye Yu. The evil Qi of the Infinite Nether Grass was completely gone, and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye no longer served as a training ground for Ye Yu.
And so, cultivation began again. Ye Yu trained in the virtual environment of Lanba Academy, with good results.
Unknowingly, half a year passed, with only six days left until the Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament.
On that day, Tang San returned, and six people gathered outside the evil virtual environment, waiting for Ye Yu to come out.
Ning Rongrong wasn't there; she had returned to the Sect. When Ning Fengzhi learned that Ning Rongrong's Seven Treasures Glaze Tower had been upgraded to a Nine Treasures Glaze Tower, he was very excited and thrilled.
The Seven Treasures Glaze Tower foretold that no matter how one cultivated, one would only reach Soul Saint. The Nine Treasures Glaze Tower was something the Seven Treasure Glaze Sect's Soul Masters dreamed of, as it allowed one to cultivate to Titled Douluo.
Upon learning the reason, Ning Fengzhi knew it was thanks to Ye Yu and Tang San. He was very grateful.
Sword Douluo was also very happy when he found out and doted on Rongrong extremely, as if she were his own granddaughter. Rongrong having the Nine Treasures Glaze Tower naturally made him very happy.
Sword Douluo said, "Helping hunt the 60,000-year-old Nine-Sectioned Jade earlier seems to have returned this favor. No... and more, I've decided, I will also help him hunt for his Fifth Soul Ring."
Hearing this, Ning Rongrong was delighted: "Really? That would be wonderful."
Ning Fengzhi, having heard Sword Douluo talk about Ye Yu, found it hard to believe. Could there really be such a terrifying demon?
Ning Fengzhi said, "Indeed, we should help, and we must also express our gratitude to Tang San with Gold Soul Coins."
Ning Rongrong said, "Then, Dad, Grandpa Jian, come with me to meet them."
"Okay."
Ning Rongrong, Ning Fengzhi, and Sword Douluo soon arrived at Lanba Academy.
At this time, Ye Yu had not yet come out of seclusion.
After Ning Fengzhi got to know Tang San, he gifted him with ten thousand Gold Soul Coins. Tang San didn't refuse, as crafting hidden weapons required a lot of money, especially since he planned to craft many of them.
Ning Fengzhi knew that Tang San could craft something called hidden weapons, as Rongrong had demonstrated it for him before, and its power was astonishing. He wanted to procure some.
The two sides quickly reached a cooperation agreement, and Tang San made a lot of money again.
Ning Fengzhi then inquired if there were any more Immortal Grasses like the Brocade Tulip, which could help his Seven Treasures Glaze Tower upgrade to a Nine Treasures Glaze Tower, greatly increasing the Sect's power.
Tang San said, "The Brocade Tulip is a once-in-a-million-years encounter; it's likely hard to come across again."
Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi was disappointed but, since it was unavailable, didn't yearn for it too much. His daughter Rongrong having the Nine Treasures Glaze Tower was already a great blessing for the Seven Treasure Glaze Sect.
At this moment, Master, Flande, and Er'long also arrived. With six days left until the Soul Master Tournament, Tang San and others had cultivated for a year, and it was time to temporarily end their training. Nearly everyone had reached the fortieth level, and once Ye Yu emerged, they planned to help the youngsters hunt soul beasts for their Soul Rings.
Noticing Sword Douluo was present, as well as Sect Leader Ning of the Seven Treasures Glaze Tower, they greeted each other politely. Knowing that Sword Douluo would help Ye Yu acquire his Fifth Soul Ring, Flande and Master were naturally very happy.
Ye Yu's Fourth Soul Ring was sixty thousand years old; for the Fifth Soul Ring, it should be at least seventy or eighty thousand years, right? However, with their Golden Triangle alone, an eighty-thousand-year soul beast was beyond their capabilities. Nevertheless, with Sword Douluo's assistance, plus Ning Fengzhi's support, it was achievable.
Sword Douluo's level 95 strength and Ning Fengzhi's level 79 Seven Treasures Glaze Tower Soul Saint status made them the strongest support combo on the continent. With Sword Douluo being supported, hunting an eighty-thousand-year top soul beast was feasible.
In the evil virtual environment, Ye Yu sat cross-legged, maintaining a state of Complete Voidification, with the black Power of Extreme Evil on his left arm becoming denser and expanding.
Additionally, Ye Yu's left arm had undergone a change. Though it hadn't shown dragon characteristics yet, it had puffed up once more. Alas, the black Qi was too dense to see through.
In the past six months, Ye Yu had become more adept at mastering the darkening, allowing him to control the Power of Extreme Evil a bit more, though not enough for dragon characteristics to appear on his left arm. However, it had expanded, suggesting it wasn't far off.
Disabling the voidification and darkening, Ye Yu emerged from seclusion.
Pushing open the door, Ye Yu hadn't expected so many people to be waiting for him.
Rongrong happily ran over, linking her arm with his, and introduced him.
"Brother Yu, this is my dad; Grandpa Jian needs no introduction."
Looking at Ye Yu, Ning Fengzhi was quite pleased: "What a fine young man."
Observing Ye Yu and Rongrong's interaction, Ning Fengzhi seemed quite satisfied.
Ye Yu couldn't shake the feeling: was this like meeting the parents as a couple?
"Hello, Sect Leader Ning," Ye Yu greeted politely.
Sword Douluo asked, "Ye Yu, what level is your Soul Power at now?"
Ye Yu replied, "Level fifty."
"Haha, perfect. You and Tang San helped Rongrong obtain that Immortal Grass that upgraded her Seven Treasures Glaze Tower to a Nine Treasures Glaze Tower, for which we thank you. Given your extraordinary talent, your Fifth Soul Ring would require a seventy-thousand or even eighty-thousand-year top soul beast, right? I'll take charge of your Fifth Soul Ring, with Rongrong's father's support to assist me. Capturing an eighty-thousand-year top soul beast should be no issue."
Hearing this, Ye Yu scratched his nose and earnestly said, "But... for the Fifth Soul Ring, I want a one hundred thousand year one..."
Sword Douluo: "..."
Ning Fengzhi: "??!!"
