Ye Lingling Takes Lin Yuan as Her Master—Please Read On, Please Bookmark

Ye Lingling hurriedly agreed. "I'm willing."

She was not an idiot. Of course she understood what a Title Douluo meant. If she could become his disciple, it would bring nothing but benefits to her future cultivation.

Moreover, with the guidance of a Title Douluo, there would be no limit to her achievements.

Lin Yuan nodded with a smile, then said, "Then why aren't you coming over to perform the discipleship ceremony?"

Ye Lingling came to her senses and struggled to rise from the bed. Trembling, she accepted the teacup Xiao Wu handed her, walked up to Lin Yuan, and knelt respectfully before him. "This disciple, Ye Lingling, invites Master to drink tea."

The moment Lin Yuan accepted the teacup, Ye Lingling performed Three Kneels and Nine Bows, the requisite rite before becoming a disciple.

"Good." Lin Yuan laughed heartily. "I, Lin Yuan, have never accepted a single disciple in my life. From this day onward, you will be my personal disciple."

Ye Lingling nodded heavily, but she still voiced the question in her heart. "Master, this disciple does not understand why you would take a Support System Soul Master like me as your disciple. With your strength, shouldn't those exceptionally talented assault-type Soul Masters be more suitable?"

"Do you truly think your Nine Heart Begonia is a healing-type martial soul?"

Lin Yuan rose to his feet and stood with his hands behind his back. "Ling Ling, remember this: the Nine Heart Begonia is nowhere near as inadequate as you imagine. In terms of healing alone, it can be called the strongest support-type martial soul on Douluo Continent."

"If you can break through to the realm of Title Douluo, any martial soul you release will be able to restore an army of a million to its peak state, truly making them impossible to kill or destroy."

Ye Lingling looked at her hands in surprise. With her talent, could she truly break through to the realm of Title Douluo in the future?

Lin Yuan seemed to see the anxiety in Ye Lingling's heart. He gently patted her shoulder with his right hand and said with a smile, "Don't worry. Since you have become my disciple, I, Lin Yuan, naturally will not stand by and do nothing. You'll understand in the future."

"Mm." Ye Lingling nodded happily and bowed to Lin Yuan again. "Thank you, Master."

"From today on, you will live here. Cultivate together with Xiao Wu. If there is anything you do not understand, ask me. Do not make wild guesses on your own."

Ye Lingling looked at Xiao Wu. "Is she my senior sister?"

Afraid that Lord Lin Yuan would blame her, Xiao Wu hurriedly explained, "Don't misunderstand. I am Senior's... maid. I serve Senior."

Ye Lingling was full of curiosity. With her master's strength, did he really need someone else to serve him? And judging by Xiao Wu's appearance, she seemed to be a disciple of Shrek Academy.

However, since her master had not said anything, she would not ask. Only if her master was willing to speak would Ye Lingling listen.

Lin Yuan took a sip of tea and looked at Ye Lingling. "Go back and cultivate with the others for now. Remember to return tonight."

"Yes, Master."

Ye Lingling happily left the courtyard. It was easy to tell from her expression that she was incredibly excited, to the point that she even wondered whether she was dreaming.

Becoming the disciple of a Title Douluo was what Ye Lingling had wanted most. Now that it had come true, she felt something she could not put into words.

Watching Ye Lingling's departing figure, Xiao Wu could no longer suppress her curiosity. "My lord, why did you accept a healing-type Soul Master as your disciple? Even if you like support-type Soul Masters, Rongrong's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is stronger than the Nine Heart Begonia, isn't it?"

"What do you know?"

Lin Yuan shot Xiao Wu a glance and snorted irritably. "There are only two owners of the Nine Heart Begonia in all of Douluo Continent, while there are hundreds of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial souls. In terms of rarity, the Nine Heart Begonia surpasses the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect by countless streets."

"Besides, the Nine Heart Begonia provides area-wide healing to everyone. Its ability can cover an entire battlefield. If its wielder reaches level one hundred and becomes a god, they could even revive gods."

After hearing Lord Lin Yuan's explanation, Xiao Wu was still doubtful. She still believed the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda was more powerful. After all, it could help teammates increase their strength, something that could absolutely turn the tide on the battlefield.

After returning to the academy, Ye Lingling went to her dormitory to pack her belongings, leaving her roommates rather confused.

"Ling Ling, where are you going? Are you heading to Star Dou Forest for training again?"

Ye Lingling shook her head and answered with a smile, "I won't be living here anymore. I'll be staying with my master."

"Master?"

One of the female students asked with a puzzled expression, "Ling Ling, when did you take a master? What is his strength? What is his background?"

However, Ye Lingling did not tell them. She was still unfamiliar with her master's temperament. If word spread too widely and affected her master because of it, the loss would outweigh the gain.

After leaving the dormitory, Ye Lingling trained with Osler and the others. Their Soul Power had all improved greatly, and before long, they would be able to break through to level forty and become Soul Ancestors.

They only needed enough time to cultivate. In the future, surpassing Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan would be more than possible.

"Ling Ling, where did you go just now? We looked everywhere for you and couldn't find you. Your roommate said you never went back?"

Yufeng walked over and asked.

Within the Heaven Dou Battle Team, Yufeng was undoubtedly the one who treated Ye Lingling the best. Of course, it was not that kind of affection—he simply regarded Ye Lingling as a younger sister.

"I went out."

Ye Lingling returned to her previous cold demeanor. After giving that reply, she turned around, sat in a chair, and did not continue speaking.

The students of Heaven Dou Royal Academy all knew Ye Lingling's personality, so no one found it particularly strange.

Osler smoothed his hair and said with a smile, "We have all reached level thirty-nine as Soul Elders now. I wonder whether the captain and Yan'er will envy how quickly we've improved when they see us."

Shimo said, "Osler, don't kick someone when they're down. No matter what, the captain used to be our brother. He'll be hurt if he hears you."

Osler shook his head, his face full of displeasure. "We told him long ago. He was the one who insisted on giving up the guidance of a Title Douluo. What angers me most is that the captain actually left Heaven Dou Royal Academy and chose to join Shrek Academy."

"I really don't understand what is so bad about Heaven Dou Royal Academy. He just had to join that insignificant Shrek Academy. I seriously suspect the captain and Yan'er got kicked in the head by a donkey."

Shimo could not help nodding as well. "When we have the time, let's go to Shrek Academy too and see whether we can bring the captain back."
