Su Wen: Too Tactful, Not Direct Enough! (Please Collect!!!)

Qian Renxue had no need to explain anything to Salas deliberately, and Salas had no idea what had happened during Su Wen's meeting with the 'Crown Prince.'

He could only speculate based on the result.

Su Wen had definitely achieved research results in the area of Soul Power Circulation Routes, and their value might even surpass that of the Higher-Level Soul Ring Absorption Theory!

That was the only way to explain why the Crown Prince had directly used his connections with the Worship Hall to transfer Su Wen into the relevant research project.

"However, I can't let Su Wen know the truth. I have to say that I secured this opportunity for him. As for why I secured it for him, I'll also use his joining the Research Institute of Heaven Dou Royal Academy as an excuse."

Salas quickly arranged every detail of the aftermath in his mind.

As for the fact that Su Wen's achievements in Soul Power Circulation Routes had not been reported to Spirit Hall but had instead been revealed to the Heaven Dou Crown Prince, Salas had naturally felt uncomfortable at first.

However, after calming down and thinking it over, he also understood the crucial details.

"Since the Young Master still values him, not only using the Crown Prince's full influence to secure resources for him but also using Spirit Hall's side to transfer him into the Soul Power Circulation Route research project, then Su Wen's performance must not have disappointed the Young Master."

He was secretly joining the Crown Prince's faction while relying on Spirit Hall?

If that were the case, the Young Master definitely would not value him.

The Crown Prince's arrival was merely a signal.

After the Crown Prince arrived, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan also extended an offer to Su Wen.

The one responsible for contacting Su Wen was the clan's Young Clan Leader, Yu Tianheng.

"Xiao Wen."

"Captain, you're here representing your clan, right?"

Yu Tianheng nodded and said, "Xiao Wen, your talent is extremely high, and with Teacher Xiao Zhan protecting you, your future achievements won't be low. I represent the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan in wanting to recruit you."

"Sorry, Captain, but I can't join your clan." Su Wen shook his head and refused outright.

"I also thought you wouldn't agree." Yu Tianheng found it perfectly reasonable and had already anticipated this result.

"So, Captain, you only asked Xiao Wen just to ask?" Yu Feng said.

Yu Tianheng replied, "Not exactly. Actually, our clan intended to teach Xiao Wen some cultivation techniques. It's just that our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul possesses the Lightning Attribute, which doesn't suit Xiao Wen."

The other six, who had been watching the show, nodded at once.

It was understandable.

Investment in talented Soul Masters by a major clan was extremely common. The Great Soul Arena had been established specifically for this purpose.

It was just that, because of Yu Tianheng, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan had learned that Su Wen was the person who had made a name for himself in the Great Soul Arena, and contacting him was convenient as well.

With such a connection, they naturally wouldn't give up on investing in him outright.

By fighting alongside him and making a certain amount of investment, the clan could gain an ally who would at least reach the Soul Saint level in the future. Why wouldn't they do it?

Even if it was only a possibility, they still wouldn't lose out.

Yu Tianheng had spoken to Su Wen in front of all the team members, clearly not treating Yu Feng and the others as outsiders.

"Actually, our clan thinks highly of you as well, Yu Feng. We just intended to wait until graduation before offering you recruitment."

"Captain, and then?" Su Wen looked at Yu Tianheng, feeling that he still had something to tell him.

"Although our clan's inherited Martial Soul is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, I have an Aunt whose Martial Soul mutated into a Fire Dragon Martial Soul. It's also a top-tier Dragon Martial Soul, and she's now a Soul Saint."

"Hiss~~~"

Yu Feng sucked in a cold breath, his eyes full of envy.

Just look at that. This was what it meant to have connections.

The concept of a powerful clan was too broad, so it didn't make much of an impact. But when someone's grandfather was a Titled Douluo and they had a Soul Saint Aunt, the impact was much more pronounced.

"Oh?" Su Wen naturally knew who Yu Tianheng was talking about.

"My Second Grandfather is currently trying to contact my Aunt and have her take you under her wing for a period of cultivation."

Su Wen looked at Yu Tianheng in surprise.

This kid really had poor emotional intelligence.

How could he say something like that before it was settled?

What if Liu Erlong refused later? The resulting disappointment might have the opposite effect.

Yu Tianheng hadn't realized this either. He thought Su Wen meant something else and hurriedly explained, "That's not what I meant. Senior Xiao Zhan's Fire Demon Style Self-Created Soul Skill is unrivaled across the continent, and even our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan admits that we're inferior. However, my Aunt's Martial Soul is a Fire Dragon Martial Soul. When it comes to the attacks of Fire Attribute Soul Skills, she has her own strengths as well."

Even without a Self-Created Soul Skill, she still possessed many Fire Attribute Soul Ring Skills. With a sufficient understanding of her own Soul Ring Skills, she could guide Su Wen in developing the Fire Demon Style.

Su Wen nodded to show his thanks.

Cultivate under Liu Erlong?

Could it be that he would have to join Blue Tyrant Academy?

"Yanzi, doesn't your family have anything to offer?" Yu Feng had become addicted to watching the drama. After Yu Tianheng finished speaking, he even asked Dugu Yan whether she had anything to say.

Dugu Yan rolled her eyes and said helplessly, "Although my grandfather is a Titled Douluo, my family doesn't have any power. There are only one or two people. As for taking disciples, forget it. My grandfather has the Poison Attribute, so he and Xiao Wen aren't on the same path."

Yu Feng scratched his head, not feeling embarrassed at all.

He looked at the Shi Mo Shi Mo brothers. They had a clan as well, but after thinking about it, he realized that they weren't a good match either, so he didn't ask.

Seeing Yu Feng's attitude, Su Wen felt somewhat speechless as well.

"All right, everyone. Cultivation is still the most important thing." He spoke up.

Blue Tyrant Academy.

Back Mountain.

Inside a small wooden house, Liu Erlong looked at her father. She wasn't very interested in the request he had just made.

"Erlong, Su Wen's talent is extremely high. There's a strong possibility that he'll become a Soul Douluo in the future. With Xiao Zhan as an example, Su Wen is suited to Xiao Zhan's Fire Demon Style, and he may very well become an extremely powerful Soul Douluo.

"With Xiao Zhan as well, recruiting him would obviously benefit the clan."

Yu Luomian tried to persuade her.

Liu Erlong, however, remained unmoved.

"Sigh, Erlong, I know you're still angry about what happened back then, but Xiaogang is your biological cousin!"

Back then, Yu Luomian truly hadn't done anything wrong.

"Su Wen's potential is extraordinary. Yesterday, Tianheng also sent word that Su Wen had already joined the Research Institute of Heaven Dou Royal Academy. It was a direct order from the Crown Prince." Yu Luomian continued, "Regardless of how Su Wen gained the Crown Prince's favor, there's no doubt that Su Wen isn't merely a cultivation genius. He also has talent in theory, and he made the Crown Prince believe that his theoretical development wouldn't diminish his value."

Theory?

Liu Erlong picked up on a crucial point.

Yu Luomian caught the fleeting abnormality in Liu Erlong's gaze, and his heart sank even further.

What a mess.

"The Crown Prince from the Royal Family has already come, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has also shown its intentions, but the benefits they offered weren't direct enough."

It couldn't be said that their conditions were poor, but none of them were direct enough.

At that moment, Su Wen was somewhat looking forward to the scene of the wealthy Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect contacting him.

"It should happen at the Great Soul Arena, right?"
