Do You Want to Fall into the Hands of the Bu Le Brothers?

Just then, Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan walked in. Seeing that both his uncle and aunt were here, they were somewhat surprised as well.

"Uncle, Aunt, why are you together?"

Yu Tianheng asked with a startled expression.

"Tianheng?" Master hurriedly rose to his feet and strode over. Looking at his nephew, his face was full of confusion. "Why are you here?"

Yu Tianheng glanced at Aunt Liu Erlong before telling his uncle about what had happened at Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Upon learning that Lin Yuan had become the Heaven Dou Battle Team's teacher, Master could not help but furrow his brow. He had never expected someone with Lin Yuan's temperament to actually teach and nurture students.

Dean Flander pushed up his glasses and said calmly, "Xiao Gang, then it's quite possible that fellow is training candidates for the upcoming Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament. Given our situation, we might not even be their match in the qualifiers."

But Master shook his head. "Probably not. Both great empires have a seeded team that can advance directly. With Xue Ye's temperament, he naturally would not let the Heaven Dou Battle Team compete."

"What worries me most is just how terrifying those children's future achievements will be under the guidance of a Title Douluo."

Master had his reasons for such concern. With Lin Yuan's strength, there was hardly anyone like him in all of Douluo Continent. He had already become a Title Douluo in his teens—something that had never appeared even throughout the river of history.

For that very reason, the disciples he taught would undoubtedly be outstanding among their peers.

"Tianheng, does this mean you've left Heaven Dou Royal Academy?"

Master asked with a frown.

Yu Tianheng nodded and answered firmly, "That's right, Uncle. Although Heaven Dou Royal Academy's teaching standards aren't low, I believe that by staying at your side, I'll have better opportunities to improve."

Seeing Yu Tianheng's confidence, Master could not help but twitch his lips. If he had known about this, he would never have let Yu Tianheng leave Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

His own instruction might surpass that of many advanced Soul Master Academies, but one must not forget that a Title Douluo's guidance could smooth out the hardships on their path of cultivation.

It was like a highly skilled engineer teaching an apprentice who knew nothing. So long as the engineer was willing, he could impart everything he knew within just a few months.

But without anyone to guide them, relying solely on their own exploration, they might achieve nothing even after three years. They might not even get the chance to enter through the door.

That was also why Master somewhat regretted not having the Shrek Academy students join Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang sighed and asked again, "Tianheng, do you truly not intend to go back?"

"I'm not going back."

Yu Tianheng shook his head and said flatly, "Heaven Dou Royal Academy treated Uncle like this. As a direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, how could I possibly become my enemy's disciple?"

Seeing how resolute Yu Tianheng was, Liu Erlong said nothing. She gently grabbed his wrist and rubbed the little fellow's head, as though she had recalled the days when Yu Tianheng was still young.

"Auntie~"

"Since Tianheng likes it here, then let him stay. I refuse to believe that without the guidance of a Title Douluo, Tianheng cannot become a top-tier powerhouse!"

Liu Erlong declared indignantly.

Since everyone had already said as much, Yu Xiaogang, as Master, no longer voiced any objection. Yet he had a strange feeling in his heart, as though Yu Tianheng would regret this one day.

But after all, Yu Tianheng was his biological nephew. As his uncle, even if he did not consider the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, he had to consider his own younger brother.

At dawn the next day, the rooster announced the morning.

Lin Yuan, having finished his cultivation, slowly opened his eyes. The firefly-like Soul Power surrounding him vanished along with them, as if it had never existed.

"It won't be long before I break through to Level 94 Title Douluo. The Asura Demon Sword Martial Soul truly deserves to be called a top-tier God-level Martial Soul."

Lin Yuan clenched his fist, sensing the energy within his body. A faint smile appeared on his face. So long as he cultivated naturally each day, breaking through to Absolute Douluo was within reach.

After getting dressed, Lin Yuan did not linger. Instead, he came to the courtyard and enjoyed the comfortable feeling of the breeze brushing against his face.

He then turned around and looked at Xiao Wu, who was squatting on the ground pulling weeds.

Xiao Wu thought of leaving this place at every moment, yet under the lock-on of a Title Douluo, escape was practically impossible.

The moment she stepped even half a pace outside, what awaited her would be the agony of countless arrows piercing her heart, leaving her unable to live or die.

Xiao Wu wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and reluctantly pulled the Blue Silver Grass in the courtyard.

"What, you're unwilling?"

Lin Yuan's voice suddenly rang out, startling Xiao Wu so badly that she nearly collapsed onto the ground. She hurriedly stood and explained, "N-No, that's not it. I just miss everyone at Shrek Academy."

"Let me give you a warning. Shrek Academy is no longer your home. You are merely a bird in a cage now. Whether you may leave depends on my mood."

Lin Yuan instantly appeared before Xiao Wu. His right hand ruthlessly seized her by the throat and lifted her into the air. "You think falling into my hands is torment, but let me tell you: only here can your life be guaranteed."

"As long as you take even half a step outside Heaven Dou Royal Academy, I guarantee that every Soul Master in the Heaven Dou Empire will attack you. If you are captured then, you should know what those Soul Masters will do to you."

"Especially the Bu Le Brothers. When that time comes, losing your life will not be the only thing you face. There is also your chastity."

Xiao Wu was instantly frightened into collapsing onto the ground. Hearing Lin Yuan's voice beside her ear, she could no longer hold back the pain in her heart. Tears streaming down her face, she burst into loud sobs.

With one hand behind his back, Lin Yuan glanced at the still-crying Xiao Wu and said, "Since you know what will happen if you leave, stop thinking about leaving this place."

"Though I currently possess a configuration of nine soul rings, that does not mean I will let you leave. Do you understand?!"

"Mm..." Xiao Wu nodded through her sobs. "Xiao Wu understands."

"Good. I have set up an array here. Ordinary Soul Masters cannot enter it, so it will naturally protect your life. But if you leave, you will bear the consequences yourself."

With that, Lin Yuan ignored Xiao Wu. He turned and left without looking back, leaving Xiao Wu lying on the ground with tears covering her face, weeping at the unfairness of fate.
