Yu Changge's Discovery, Something's Wrong!

The next day, inside the council hall.

Yu Tianqing stood in the center of the hall and solemnly reported the new discovery about whale glue to Yu Yuanzhen.

Yu Yuanzhen had been worrying over Yu Xiaogang's slow level progression, and when he heard this, his brows knitted tightly.

"Tianqing, this is not something to joke about." Yu Yuanzhen's voice was imposing. "Whale glue has circulated across the continent for so long, and it has always had that one effect. How is it that when it gets to you, it can temper the body?"

Yu Tianqing had long expected the clan leader to be skeptical. Without changing expression, he took a refined piece of fifty-year whale glue from his soul tool and handed it over.

"Clan Leader, seeing is believing."

"You can summon any clan disciple here and have them take it on the spot. A test will tell you the truth."

Yu Yuanzhen pondered for a moment, then nodded.

Fifty-year whale glue did have medicinal strength, but it was not enough to make someone lustful and lose their reason. At most, it would cause heat and swelling.

Soon, a direct-line clan disciple was summoned into the hall.

Under Yu Yuanzhen's watch, the disciple swallowed the refined whale glue and began absorbing it.

A short while later, that disciple's face was flushed red and his entire body was drenched in sweat. Then, after the medicinal effect passed, Yu Yuanzhen examined him. With the perception of a Titled Douluo, he naturally noticed keenly that the disciple's physique had indeed strengthened, and even the hardness of his bones had faintly improved by a trace.

Although it was only a trace, that was because the whale glue's age was too low, and this was only from taking it once.

"Hahahaha! Good! Excellent!"

Yu Yuanzhen could not help but burst into laughter, his previously gloomy mood swept clean away.

"Tianqing, you have rendered the clan a great service this time!"

"If this whale glue is used well, then in a few decades, a new Titled Douluo will surely appear in our clan!"

Though the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul was the number one beast martial soul on the continent, over all these years, aside from his father, only he, Yu Yuanzhen, had achieved the title—rank ninety-two Titled Douluo, title Thunder.

As for his younger brother, Yu Luomian, he was still only a Soul Sage. If he could take whale glue of a higher age, it would at least raise the age limit of the eighth spirit ring he could absorb.

The higher the spirit ring age, the more benefits it brought to a Soul Master's later breakthroughs.

Yu Luomian had innate spirit power of rank seven and later became the clan's second-in-command, but barring any surprises, his chances of advancing to Titled Douluo were extremely low.

After he advanced to Soul Sage, his cultivation speed had slowed considerably. Now that there was whale glue to improve his physique, perhaps it might even increase his chances of reaching the titled level.

For the other juniors in the clan, the effect would be even greater. Even if their innate spirit power was a little low, only rank seven, with the help of this whale glue, it would not be impossible for them to break through to Titled Douluo in the future!

"Tell me, what reward do you want?"

Yu Tianqing was an honest man as well and did not claim all the credit for himself.

He cupped his hands and said, "Clan Leader, in truth, this matter was entirely thanks to my son Changge discovering it by chance."

After that, Yu Tianqing vividly recounted the whole incident of "Xiao Huang accidentally eating whale glue."

After listening to this highly dramatic sequence of events, even Yu Yuanzhen's facial muscles could not help but twitch.

Immediately after, Yu Yuanzhen thought of his own Yu Xiaogang. They were both swine martial souls, so how could the gap be so huge?

Sure enough... other people's children were always better...

With this comparison, Yu Yuanzhen, as an old father, immediately felt his heart fall out of balance.

He sighed, suppressed the gloom in his heart, and looked at Yu Tianqing.

"In that case, is there any reward your family particularly wants? As long as the clan can manage it, I will not refuse."

Yu Yuanzhen's expression straightened, and his tone turned serious. "Also, the matter of the whale glue refining method is of great importance. It absolutely must not be leaked."

"Starting today, I will send secret personnel to purchase whale glue covertly across the entire continent."

"The first batch of whale glue we buy back will be supplied to your family first. Aside from that, do you have any other requests?"

Yu Tianqing thought of his son.

"Clan Leader, I hope to secure some rarer cultivation resources for Changge, ones more suitable for an external beast martial soul like his."

When Yu Yuanzhen heard this, he immediately understood Yu Tianqing's painstaking intentions.

He sighed softly and said with feeling, "I have also heard about that child of yours. He has even been training hard in both theory and physical arts at the same time."

"Very well, I approve your request!"

"From today onward, the level of resources Yu Changge enjoys in the clan will be equal to Xiaogang's!"

When Yu Tianqing heard this, he was overjoyed.

"Many thanks, Clan Leader!"

Yu Tianqing bowed deeply, his face brimming with excitement he could hardly conceal.

Yu Yuanzhen stood with his hands behind his back, quietly watching Yu Tianqing's figure gradually disappear into the distance, and could not help letting out a long sigh.

In his view, the discovery Yu Tianqing had just reported, that whale glue could improve one's physique, was undoubtedly an enormous, once-in-a-lifetime contribution.

This was something that could raise the upper limit of the clan's entire younger generation.

If used properly, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's overall strength in the future would definitely rise to a whole new level.

Yu Tianqing had used such a great contribution merely to exchange for cultivation resources for Yu Changge, whose martial soul was a crippled innate half-level?

In Yu Yuanzhen's view, that was far too little. It could even be called somewhat of a loss.

After all, even if Yu Changge's treatment were raised to be exactly the same as Yu Xiaogang's, that amount of resources would still be nowhere near enough to offset that contribution.

"Perhaps I can use this as a pretext to give Yu Tianqing and Yu Shuyao some extra cultivation resources as well."

After all, whether it was Yu Tianqing or Yu Shuyao, both of them were already Soul Saint powerhouses above rank seventy.

To reach the Soul Saint realm at their age meant their talent, foundation, and potential were absolutely not to be underestimated.

In the future, as long as the husband and wife advanced steadily and did not die halfway, their promotion to the Soul Douluo realm was practically set in stone.

And according to the rules of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, as long as one's cultivation reached the Soul Douluo level, one was qualified to be promoted to clan elder and enter the Council of Elders.

That was the clan's highest-level decision-making circle, the true backbone of its upper echelon.

Yu Changge's thoughts finally drifted slowly back to reality from his earlier memories.

He lowered his head and looked at the piece of seventy-year whale glue in his hand. No matter how he thought about it, something felt off.

After carefully thinking over his cultivation progress during the past half year, he discovered a "blind spot."

In his impression, although Yu Xiaogang was famously useless, his innate soul power was also only half a level.

However, at present, the cultivation resources the two of them openly enjoyed were basically about the same. Yu Xiaogang even spent more time meditating than he did.

Yet even if he did not count the rewards from the Hextech System, his own basic soul power growth speed was actually a little faster than Yu Xiaogang's!

That was a big problem!

They had both started at innate half-level, had the same martial soul, and their cultivation speeds should have been about the same.

So why did he still have to study theory and practice physical techniques every day, yet cultivated faster than Yu Xiaogang?

Yu Changge was a smart person. He absolutely did not believe in some talent that appeared for no reason. Then, Yu Changge slowly turned his head and set his gaze on Xiao Huang.

"Could it be that the sub-dragon meat I fed Xiao Huang before gave me some kind of feedback?"
