Looking at his younger cousin, Yu Tianxin said, "Little Lin, let's go together. It happens to be on the way."
In Yu Tianxin's view, even if Yu Tianlin had broken through to the realm of a two-ring Soul Grandmaster, he was still an eight-year-old child. Going out alone was still a little dangerous. Since the two of them were headed the same way, they might as well travel together, and he could look after him a bit.
Thunderbolt Academy was northwest of Heaven Dou City, while Heaven Dou Royal Academy was east of Heaven Dou City. If Yu Tianlin wanted to go there, he still had to pass through Heaven Dou City, and Blue Tyrant Academy just happened to be inside Heaven Dou City, so the two of them really could be considered to be going the same way.
Yu Tianlin had no objections either. If they were going together, then they were going together.
The two of them headed toward Heaven Dou City just like that. Along the way, Yu Tianlin asked about some matters related to Thunderbolt Academy, while Yu Tianxin did not speak much, only occasionally answering Yu Tianlin's questions.
At first glance, it seemed as though Yu Tianxin did not want to pay Yu Tianlin any attention. If one thought more maliciously, one could even guess that because Yu Tianxin was competing with Yu Tianheng, he also disliked Yu Tianheng's younger brother. But Yu Tianlin did not mind. He knew that his cousin Yu Tianxin simply did not like talking much because he had been under the pressure of competition for a long time.
Although Yu Tianxin and Yu Tianheng had always been competing, the two of them were still very friendly toward each other's younger brothers.
Because both of them were Soul Grand Masters, they traveled very quickly, and at around eight or nine in the morning, they arrived at Heaven Dou City.
As the capital of the Heaven Dou Empire, Heaven Dou City's walls alone were a hundred meters tall. Flags fluttered atop the walls, and the patrolling soldiers were all dressed in full heavy armor. As they moved, their steps were perfectly uniform, as if they were one person, displaying their powerful discipline.
The main city gate in the middle was ten meters tall, the same height as Thunderbolt Academy's gate, but it was wider, wide enough to allow six people on horseback to pass through side by side.
However, the main gate was closed, and passersby could only enter through the side gates on the left and right, each five meters high and wide.
After entering Heaven Dou City, Yu Tianlin observed the surrounding environment. All he could say was that the capital truly was worthy of being the capital. The streets inside Heaven Dou City were all paved with blue bricks, broad and very clean. Shops lined both sides of the streets, and pedestrians flowed endlessly along the road.
Under Yu Tianxin's lead, the two of them turned this way and that, and only stopped after arriving at an intersection.
"Little Lin, we'll have to split up from here." After stopping, Yu Tianxin pointed at one road and said, "Follow this road straight ahead, and you'll reach Heaven Dou City's eastern gate. After leaving through the eastern gate, walk a little farther, and you'll be able to see Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
"All right. Goodbye, Brother Tianxin."
Although he was a little interested in the aunt he had never met, the urgent matter was still to go find his eldest brother and get to know his future sister-in-law.
After parting from Yu Tianxin, Yu Tianlin followed the road he had pointed out. Before long, he left through the eastern gate, and after walking a little farther, he immediately saw a large mountain standing tall. At the foot of the mountain on the left, there was also a lake glittering brilliantly under the sunlight.
"Could this be Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"
Looking at the mountain before him, Yu Tianlin was a little uncertain, because there was no academy gate at the foot of the mountain, so he could not make a judgment.
However, the stone steps on the mountain path were all paved with white marble, and various soul beast patterns were carved on them. With such an exaggerated setup, it could not possibly be just an ordinary mountain. Heaven Dou Royal Academy should be within the mountain.
Thinking this, Yu Tianlin followed the mountain path upward.
He had only taken a few steps when he saw a few scattered figures coming down from the mountain.
Seeing the goose-yellow uniforms on them, Yu Tianlin finally confirmed it. This place was Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Those few Heaven Dou Royal Academy students looked utterly full of themselves, swaggering down the middle of the road. Yu Tianlin did not want to bother with them, so he continued upward along the side.
However, just because you did not want to bother others did not mean others would not stick to you like dog shit.
One student beside them, whose face was pale and who looked kidney-deficient at a glance, brightened when he saw Yu Tianlin and said to the youth in the middle, who was clearly the leader, "Boss, look! That's someone from Thunderbolt Academy!"
The leading youth also turned his gaze toward Yu Tianlin. After seeing the Thunderbolt Academy uniform he was wearing, his mouth split into a grin. "It really is. What's someone from Thunderbolt Academy doing running over to our place? Come on, let's go have some fun with him."
As he said this, the leading youth brought a few lackeys over and blocked Yu Tianlin's path forward, saying arrogantly, "Kid, you're from Thunderbolt Academy? This isn't a place you can come to!"
Yu Tianlin looked at the punks blocking him and frowned slightly. He had not wanted to pay them any attention, yet they had still come over. He could not help but bark in a low voice, "Scram!"
"Oh-ho, you're pretty arrogant, kid! Big Brother here will teach you how to behave today!"
The leading youth had originally wanted to come over and provoke Yu Tianlin a little, to find some amusement. He had not expected Yu Tianlin to tell him to scram right away, and his mood instantly soured. He directly kicked down at Yu Tianlin from above.
Unsteady footwork, weak kick.
Facing the youth's incoming kick, Yu Tianlin's mind subconsciously made an analysis. With a simple sidestep, he dodged the kick.
But that was not the end of it. Yu Tianlin's left hand quickly landed on the ankle of the youth's missed kick, and then he yanked down hard...
"Ah!"
The youth was suddenly pulled into a split by Yu Tianlin and immediately cried out in pain. His body leaned forward uncontrollably, and the moment Yu Tianlin let go, he rolled straight down the white marble steps.
"Boss!"
The lackeys were shocked. They could no longer bother with Yu Tianlin and hurriedly went around him, running down to support their boss.
"So this is the quality of the students in Heaven Dou Royal Academy? It's really hard to describe..."
Yu Tianlin also felt a little speechless. He had not expected this guy to look so arrogant, yet be so weak once they actually fought.
Yu Tianlin could not help feeling a little worried about his eldest brother. People always said that one took on the color of one's company. He studied in the same academy as these rotten fish and shrimps every day. In the end, he had better not really turn into the same kind of swaggering idiot as them.
Those who could enroll in an advanced Soul Master Academy were at least two-ring Soul Grand Masters. After rolling down more than a dozen steps, the leading youth finally managed to steady himself and climbed up in a sorry state.
"Boss, are you all right?"
The lackeys who had run down also hurriedly helped their boss up, helping him pat the dust off his body.
"A bunch of trash, all of you get lost!" The leading youth impatiently shoved aside the lackeys beside him and glared viciously at Yu Tianlin. "Kid, you're courting death!"
After throwing down those harsh words, a burst of green light immediately flashed over the leading youth's body. Then, all the muscles in his body bulged, and gray fur grew from him. At the same time, two yellow soul rings rose up, circling around his body.
