Xue Qinghe's Scheme
The All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament.
It is held every five years.
There are still three years until the start of the next competition.
"Tianheng, three years from now, you will be seventeen years old. Your Soul Power will be at least level thirty-five, and you will also possess a top-tier Beast Martial Soul: Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. You will indeed be qualified to participate in the Continental Elite Tournament."
Qin Ming analyzed the minimum Soul Power Level that Yu Tianheng could reach in three years, "However, you should know that the current members of the Imperial Fighting Team are all between eighteen and twenty years old. The Continental Elite Tournament in three years will be their last chance in this life. Unless something unexpected happens, no one will give up their position."
Although Yu Tianheng and others are substitutes for the current Imperial Fighting Team, the Imperial Fighting Team has the qualification to be guaranteed Finals, so they basically do not need to be substitutes.
For the Imperial Fighting Team, the so-called substitutes are members of the previous team who are over 25 years old and can no longer participate in major competitions, and the next batch of members fills in, so that the Imperial Fighting Team can continue to exist.
"I'll have my grandfather handle it." Although Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng haven't officially become a couple, their relationship is quite ambiguous.
"If Senior Poison Douluo were to step in, one member of the Imperial Fighting Team would indeed have to give up their place."
Qin Ming understood the weight of Titled Douluo; others had to give him face. However, this could be seen as bullying the weak. Moreover, "Tianheng, you come from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. If you rashly occupy a position that originally belonged to a formal member of the Imperial Fighting Team, they might talk about you behind your back."
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is one of the Upper Three Sects, and its large size and influence are undeniable facts.
The students who can join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy are all from impressive backgrounds, with families and nobles whose networks of interests are intricate and complex. Offending one could implicate a whole host of others.
If this were to come to light, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan would indeed be formidable, but its reputation would likely suffer some damage.
"No, Teacher Qin, what I mean is, can our team participate in the Preliminary Competition as a second team?"
Yu Tianheng's idea was simple: he wanted to try and see if he and his partners could make it to the Finals on their own!
"Hiss~"
Qin Ming gasped. "You should know better than me what kind of people are in the Imperial Fighting Team Two, right? The members of the Imperial Fighting Team One, at least on the surface, don't have any noble status, but those guys in Team Two are complete spoiled brats. They can directly inherit noble titles and ranks."
"Is there really no other way?" Yu Tianheng was unwilling to give up.
"Tianheng, don't worry, I can ask Grandpa to establish a Advanced Academy." Dugu Yan had already begun to think about how to persuade Dugu Bo.
No! Please don't!
A bead of cold sweat appeared on Yu Tianheng's forehead. He quickly pressed down on Dugu Yan's shoulder and said seriously, "Don't bother Senior Dugu with such a trivial matter."
To establish a Advanced Academy just to participate in the Continental Elite Tournament three years later is making a mountain out of a molehill.
Moreover, Poison Douluo has an eccentric temper, and even his own grandfather Yu Yuanzhen, is unwilling to have much contact with him, let alone himself.
"Tianheng, I'll help you with this little matter, how about it?"
Not far away, a handsome young man with rich clothes, short blond hair, and a face walked slowly towards them.
"Your His Royal Highness the First Prince!"
Qin Ming, Yu Tianheng, and the others all Bowing Body greeting.
"No need for formalities." The young man smiled gently and personally helped Qin Ming, Yu Tianheng and the others up. "Teacher Qin Ming, as I said before, at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, I am a student and you are a teacher. We have no other relationship. And Tianheng, I am only two years older than you. Just call me Brother Qinghe."
"I wouldn't dare."
When Yu Tianheng joined the Royal Academy, he warned Yu Yuanzhen that he must never have an overly close relationship with any of the royal relatives within the academy.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan supports the Heaven Dou Empire, not a particular prince or royal of the Heaven Dou Royal Family. Otherwise, the family members would also be forced to participate in the royal family's struggles and would no longer be able to remain uninvolved.
"Sigh, Tianheng, you're just too rigid on this point." Xue Qinghe sighed: ε=(ο`*))) Sigh!
"Ritual must not be abandoned."
Yu Tianheng looked serious.
"Alright, Tianheng, I'll help you solve your team's competition problem three years from now, how about that?" Xue Qinghe brought up the serious matter and asked with a smile.
"This···"
Yu Tianheng wanted to refuse, after all, he owed the First Prince a favor, but the crushing defeats over the past seven days made him eager to regain his confidence at the Continental Elite Tournament three years later.
He wanted to win it back from the Star Luo Royal Academy Team and tell Dai Weisi and the others who had been directly admitted to the Finals three years later:
Even without being directly admitted to the national team, Yu Tianheng could still lead his team to the Finals.
"Tianheng, you don't need to be so polite. We're classmates at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. It's just that my talent for cultivation is not good. In two years, I will have to graduate and go to help my Father Emperor." Seeing Yu Tianheng hesitate, the joy in Xue Qinghe's eyes vanished in an instant. He pretended to be worried and said, "This is the only thing I, the First Prince, can do for you right now. I only hope that you can make it to the Finals in three years."
"I will not disappoint the First Prince."
Yu Tianheng realized that even if he didn't agree, the First Prince would still make preparations to have him and others replace the original second team in the Continental Elite Tournament.
Since the deed was done, he had no choice but to accept the favor.
At least Yu Tianheng believed he could afford to repay it, and as long as the First Prince didn't get into trouble, he was destined to be the Crown Prince, or even the emperor, of the Heaven Dou Empire in the future...
"I trust Tianheng's abilities." Xue Qinghe smiled slightly, chatted with Qin Ming for a few words, and then took his leave.
But the moment he turned around, Xue Qinghe could no longer suppress the joy in his eyes—
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has finally revealed a weakness! Yu Tianheng, you owe me this favor, but repaying it won't be easy...
However, the Star Luo Royal Academy Team's tactics were indeed unexpected and unpredictable. Perhaps the champion of the Continental Elite Tournament will change hands from the Spirit Hall in three years.
Let that woman suffer a loss, that's not bad!
And then there's Dai Mubai, the Third Prince of the Star Luo Empire. He seems to have gotten along quite well with Xue Beng during these seven days... Zhu Zhuqing, Zhu Zhuyun's younger sister, surprisingly doesn't have Hell Stab or Netherworld Hundred Claws as her First Soul Skill, but rather a pure acceleration skill...
Could the intelligence be wrong, and the competition between the First Prince of the Star Luo Empire has been cancelled?
Back in the palace, Xue Qinghe went to his study and began practicing calligraphy. He then said to the shadows behind him, "Snake Lance, go and investigate what changes have occurred in the power struggle within the Star Luo Empire's royal family. Once you find out, send the news back to the Papal Palace. I don't want to have any more attention diverted to the Star Luo Empire."
"Yes, young master!"
