(Holy crap! I finished writing ages ago, was waiting to post at midnight, and got too engrossed in watching TV! I forgot! Sorry, sorry!)
"Qian Renxue, don't forget my first condition. Find a way to give me the Vast Sea Cosmic Shroud."
This thing was a rare divine artifact with four accompanying skills. It would be a great asset if used properly.
It was also a crucial item for inheriting the Sea God's power. Seizing it would prevent Tang San from inheriting the Sea God's God Position.
This would stop the shameless Sea God from repeatedly aiding Tang San in the future.
After finishing his last sentence.
Tang Yu smashed through the wall and walked out. "Father, let's go."
Qian Renxue also emerged shortly after, looking disheveled. She glanced at the equally messy Pufferfish and Snake Lance and roared, "Tang Yu! How dare you kiss me, Qian Renxue! This matter is absolutely not over!"
"Young Miss! Are you alright!"
The Snake Lance and Pufferfish rushed over, their faces filled with indignation. "Young Miss, the Clear Sky Sect actually has another expert at the Titled Douluo level. We couldn't do anything..."
"Send a message back immediately and have the Great Enshrined Elder send several Titled Elders to wipe them out!"
Qian Renxue clenched her fists unwillingly. "Today's incident will be dropped."
"What! But! But they already know your identity, Young Miss! If..."
"I said it will be dropped!" Qian Renxue's eyes sharpened.
The Snake Lance and Pufferfish showed fear and lowered their heads. "Yes, Young Miss."
Recalling the kiss just now, a blush once again flashed across Qian Renxue's face. She clenched her fists. "Tang Yu, once I seize control of Heaven Dou's imperial power, I'll make you pay for stealing my first kiss, Qian Renxue!"
"Heh, you're so eager to participate in the Soul Master Competition and win the championship because of the three Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones our Martial Soul Hall is offering as rewards this year, aren't you?"
"Fine! I can let you participate smoothly in the Soul Master Competition and leave Martial Soul City safely, but don't even think about winning the championship!"
"Snake Lance! Send a message back to Martial Soul City immediately! I want to participate in the next Soul Master Competition!" Qian Renxue resolved.
"What? Young Miss... This! This isn't appropriate, is it? You were declared dead when you were nine years old! And what if it affects the undercover plan..." the Snake Lance hesitated.
"So what if I was declared dead? Then let the world know that I, Qian Renxue, am still alive!"
"I will represent the Heaven Dou Empire's team in this competition, bringing five hundred Royal Knights with me to Martial Soul City. At that time, I'll switch back to my true identity and only need to fight the final match. Then I can switch back to the Crown Prince's identity and lead the team away without anyone suspecting," Qian Renxue said.
With the Martial Soul Hall's strength, they were bound to reach the finals. She wouldn't need to make a move against other teams; she only needed to fight against Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
"Al... alright, I understand, Young Miss. I'll send the message back immediately."
"Let's go!"
Qian Renxue reverted to her Xue Qinghe persona and left Dou Spirit Mountain.
Tang Tian and Blazing Sun Douluo, who had left earlier, couldn't help but ask. Elder Seven said, "Xiao Yu, when did the Heaven Dou Empire get a Titled Douluo expert? And that Crown Prince..."
Tang Yu stated directly, "He is the Young Miss of the Martial Soul Hall, Qian Renxue."
"What!"
Tang Yu said with utmost seriousness, "Father, Elder Seven, I hope this matter does not get back to the sect. It's enough for the three of us to know."
"Old Seven!"
Tang Tian immediately put pressure on Elder Seven.
Upon seeing this, Elder Seven replied, "I understand. Don't worry, I won't spread it."
After returning to the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace, Qian Renxue grew more and more furious the more she thought about it, unable to sleep. "That guy! How dare he steal my first kiss!"
"If it weren't for my undercover mission in the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace wasting so much of my cultivation time, I would be at least a high-level Soul Sage by now. How could I have been manipulated by you, Tang Yu, today!"
She decided that for the next period, she would spend more time cultivating.
Then, during the finals, she would lead the Martial Soul Hall team to crush Tang Yu!
Back in the academy dormitory.
Tang Yu flipped through the book he had obtained from Qian Renxue.
After careful examination, he understood the effects and medicinal properties of each Immortal Herb.
He then took out four Immortal Herbs and handed them to Blazing Sun Douluo. "Elder Seven, the effects of these four Immortal Herbs are not much inferior to the Mad Strength Purple Gold Ginseng. You absorb this fire-attribute Immortal Herb, and take the other three back to be absorbed by Elder Two, Elder Three, and Elder Five respectively."
"Your Soul Power should also break through by one level."
Tang Yu thought for a moment, then took out another Immortal Herb. "This Thunderous Hellflower, give it to Brother Tang Hu!"
Tang Hu was part of the Elder faction.
He was also a top genius among the younger generation, second only to Tang Yu.
He was worthy of an Immortal Herb, and with it, he had the potential to become a Titled Douluo in the future.
As for Tang Long, they would see his performance later.
"Xiao Yu! With you, the Clear Sky Sect will surely regain its former glory!" Elder Seven held the Immortal Herb, his heart filled with excitement.
He absorbed the Immortal Herb first, and his Soul Power broke through from level 92 to 93.
"Hahaha! I broke through! I broke through! Hahaha!" Elder Seven laughed uncontrollably with joy. He stood up and said, "I'll go back immediately to bring the Immortal Herbs to them!"
"Go ahead, Seventh Elder."
The Seventh Elder left first.
A few days later.
Blazing Sun Douluo returned to the sect and immediately gave the Immortal Herb to the Second Elder, Third Elder, Fifth Elder, and Tang Long.
After everyone absorbed it.
The Second Elder directly broke through from level 95 peak to the high-level Titled Douluo rank of level 96, his strength greatly increasing.
Level 95 and level 96 were a watershed. Crossing this ridge brought about a qualitative leap in power.
The Third Elder broke through from level 94 peak to level 95.
The Fifth Elder broke through from level 93 peak to level 94.
Tang Hu broke through from level 51 to level 55, his Soul Power directly surpassing Tang Long.
More importantly, the Immortal Herb had the effect of strengthening the foundation and improving innate talent. From now on, Tang Hu would only be stronger than Tang Long in the future.
Tang Hu should be sufficient to break through to Soul Emperor before the age of 26!
The Second Elder excitedly exclaimed like a child, "Third Brother, Fifth Brother! I broke through! I broke through to level 96! If it weren't for this Immortal Herb that Little Yu gave us, I would never have reached this realm in my life!"
"We all broke through by one level too!"
"Ahahaha!"
The three elders excitedly embraced each other, laughing heartily.
"Cough, cough."
But they quickly and awkwardly pushed each other away.
As the elders broke through one after another, the Clear Sky Sect became stronger.
Since Tang Yu was a member of the Clear Sky Sect, he naturally wanted his background and backing to become stronger and more solid.
But the Clear Sky Sect was still far from being able to contend with the Martial Soul Hall. Therefore, after the competition ended, Tang Yu would have to consider how to expand the Clear Sky Sect and make it stronger.
For the next period, Qian Renxue made no further moves, and Tang Yu calmly cultivated with the reserve team members in the academy, honing their teamwork.
One month later.
Within the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Eye.
Dugu Bo, who was meditating beside the spring, had his Soul Power surge to level 92.
He opened his eyes with a smile, "I've finally broken through! Hahaha! Not only has my Soul Power broken through to level 92, but my poison attacks have also greatly increased, and my toxins have almost all been forced into my Soul Bones."
"I've never felt so light and agile before, it feels great!!"
