Lin Hai smiled and nodded to everyone, then turned his gaze to the mischievous Dugu Yan and asked with some surprise:

"Yanyan, why did you come here too?"

"Aren't those members of the teaching committee at your Heaven Dou Royal Academy eager to compete for the championship lately?"

"With the Promotion Tournament almost over, they actually let you, their key player, relax?"

Dugu Yan snorted irritably and spread her hands, "Don't even mention it! I don't know what they're thinking."

"We've practiced tactical coordination countless times, how else can we coordinate?!"

In the end, it's all about dealing with each move as it comes!

She paused, her tone tinged with helplessness:

"If they really encountered a team like Shrek, I really can't imagine how they would have been able to hold on."

Then, her gaze swept over Meng Yiran beside Lin Hai, and for some reason, a slight displeasure welled up in her heart.

She was already used to Lin Hai's philandering.

She wasn't as aloof and self-possessed as Zhu Zhuqing, nor as lively and agile as Xiao Wu, nor as gentle and submissive as Ye Lingling.

But this Meng Yiran in front of her... for some reason, Dugu Yan felt that her temperament and style were similar to her own—

Fiery, bold, and untamed!

This made her feel a little comparative: Was she not "wild" enough? Was she less attractive than this newcomer?

Lin Hai, unaware of Dugu Yan's subtle thoughts, smiled and said:

"So, are you planning to give Lying Flat early and prepare to play two against seven with Ling Ling in the finals?"

Dugu Yan paused for a moment, then a meaningful smile appeared on her face, and she said, "That's not it."

"Ling Ling ultimately lacks the ability to protect herself and will need her teammates to protect her in team battles."

"However, Yu Tianheng's grandfather was seriously injured by some expert a few days ago, causing considerable losses to the family. He took leave to go home and visit him."

She paused deliberately, observing Lin Hai's expression, and continued:

"I heard that many of his clansmen were also affected. Aunt Ye was also invited and went with Ling Ling and some members of the Ye Family to help with the treatment."

"So these past few days, our team's training schedule has been much more flexible."

Dugu Yan was speechless at Lin Hai's words.

She had heard from Dugu Bo that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan incident was most likely the work of Lin Hai.

And now he's still pretending to be stupid and acting like nothing's wrong!

"Yu Tianheng's grandfather?"

Upon hearing this, Ma Hongjun exclaimed in surprise, his chubby face filled with shock, "Isn't that the patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan? Titled Douluo- level powerhouse!"

"Who's so powerful that they could seriously injure him?"

Dai Mubai then showed a look of sudden realization:

"No wonder the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has been coming to the academy in a hurry lately, and Grandmaster and Teacher Erlong have been nowhere to be seen these past two days."

Because several elders of the Yu Family frequently came to see Liu Erlong, her relationship with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is no longer a secret among the senior members and core students of the Shrek Academy.

However, they were unaware that Liu Erlong was about to take over as the patriarch of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

In fact, it was at Lin Hai's behest that Ye Yunyao Erlong invited Liu Erlong, who was leading the elites of the Nine Heart Begonia Clan to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

He knew very well that for an illegitimate daughter who had been extremely ostracized by her family, simply suppressing her with force was far from enough to secure her position as clan leader.

This could easily sow the seeds of future problems and trigger subsequent unrest.

With many wounded and people in their family now in a state of panic, they need reassurance.

At this crucial moment, Liu Erlong's return to the Ye Family family with the Treatment Spirit Master might quickly earn her the gratitude and support of many clansmen.

"I had overlooked the aftermath of this," Lin Hai nodded.

His revenge against Yu Yuanzhen and the Yu Family was just a momentary outburst of anger. He really didn't expect that Yu Tianheng, Yu Yuanzhen's eldest grandson, might miss the finals because of it.

"Brother Hai! Judging from your tone, you know about this too?" Oscar leaned closer with a gossipy look on his face.

"Yeah, you always have the best connections! Tell us, do you know who did this? That's incredibly audacious!"

Apart from Dugu Yan, who already knew the answer, everyone else on the training field looked at Lin Hai with curiosity, waiting for his answer.

Under everyone's gaze, Lin Hai awkwardly touched his nose, a hint of helplessness on his face, and frankly said, "I did it."

He then recounted how Yu Yunting, an elder of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, had infiltrated the academy that night in an attempt to kidnap the two women.

Of course, he wouldn't mention his ability to read memories.

He only said that he received the news in advance through special channels, which is why he was so angry that he killed Yu Yunting and went to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to demand an explanation and punish them.

As for the source of the information, it was simply glossed over.

I believe that it won't be long before they connect the dots to the Spirit Hall once their identities are fully exposed.

"This... the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is too shameless! They actually sent an elder to kidnap someone?!" Ma Hongjun was the first to shout indignantly.

Dai Mubai frowned as well. "No wonder there was thunder that night, it turns out it was you, Brother Hai, who made the move..."

Zhu Zhuqing looked at Lin Hai, a hint of lingering fear and gratitude flashing in her eyes, and said softly, "Thank you, Lin Hai."

Xiao Wu jumped to Lin Hai's side, took his arm, and said angrily, "That bad old man even tried to kidnap me and Zhu Qing. He'd better die soon!"

"Yu Yuanzhen is no good either, brother, you did a good job teaching him a lesson!"

Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

Lin Hai reached out and gently pinched Xiao Wu's soft cheek, his tone tinged with apology as he spoke softly:

"Yu Yunting is dead, and Yu Yuanzhen is crippled. These two people who are most responsible have received their due punishment."

"Let's just let this matter go. Let's not harbor too much hostility towards them anymore."

These words were ostensibly addressed to Xiao Wu, but in reality, they were also a warning to Ah Rou, who was hiding in the shadows.

As a mother, no matter how gentle she is, she can hardly tolerate others harming her daughter.

If she were to cause another scene at the Yu Family...

Regardless of the outcome, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has been attacked twice in a short period of time, which will likely cause its reputation to be severely damaged, and its status as the third largest sect in the world will become undeserved.

Once the prestige of the Upper Three Sects is lost, their leadership in surrendering will lose its meaning.

"Brother, I understand." Xiao Wu nodded obediently.

Standing to the side, Dugu Yan gave a wry smile and said, "If Yu Tianheng knew about these things, he might not dare to come back."

"It seems that the task of protecting Ling Ling can only be entrusted to the two brothers Shi Mo and Shi Mo."
