Do I Still Need to Join the Tang Sect When I Already Have the Technological Level of the Dragon King?

[Wu Zhangkong: If you don't understand theory, can you stop teaching it?]

[Wu Zhangkong: Everyone's martial soul, physique, and spiritual power strength are different, so naturally the Soul Ring age they can endure is different too. He has Twin Martial Souls, and both are top-tier martial souls. Isn't it perfectly normal for his Soul Ring age to be a little higher?]

Yu Xiaogang: "???"

"Why is someone else questioning my martial soul theory? Questioning my Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul?"

[Yu Xiaogang: I am a theoretical master who taught a god! What right do you have to question me? Are you qualified?]

When the others saw Yu Xiaogang's words, they all assumed he had gone mad and could not be bothered with him.

Meanwhile, the scene within the Sky Screen was extremely strange.

Above, Bibi Dong and Scarlet King were engaged in a fierce battle.

Below, Ye Chen and the Auspicious Beast pressed their foreheads together, looking rather warm and intimate.

However, Scarlet King's strength was not even comparable to Xuan Zi's. Facing the level-99 Bibi Dong, he was subdued within just a few exchanges.

"Your Holiness, please let him go," Ye Chen called out after exchanging secrets with the Auspicious Beast.

According to the memories, the Auspicious Beast had indeed come here after receiving some sort of guidance.

"Fine." The purplish-black Soul Power faded from Scarlet King's body, and only then did the Ferocious Beast stagger to his feet.

He followed the Auspicious Beast and vanished into the depths of the Star Dou Forest.

"What happened between you and that Auspicious Beast?" Bibi Dong asked.

"I don't know either, but at the very least, I have my Soul Rings now," Ye Chen said.

"Your Holiness, such a huge commotion might attract Shrek Academy's attention. Why don't you find somewhere to hide first?"

"I can live in your Sea of Spirit. Since Spirit Hall has already been destroyed, don't call me Pope anymore," Bibi Dong said.

Ye Chen: "???"

Then what should I call her? Aunt Dong?

"If you don't mind, how about calling me Teacher?" Bibi Dong suddenly said.

At twelve years old, Ye Chen already possessed level-30 Soul Power and had the potential to become a God King.

From what she knew, even the Rakshasa God was merely a first-class god.

"Alright, Teacher," Ye Chen said, changing his form of address.

Outside the Sky Screen, Hu Liena felt deeply hurt as she watched this scene.

"Teacher, don't you love me anymore? Why did you take in a new disciple?"

Within the Sky Screen, the earlier commotion had, as expected, drawn a group of people over.

Bibi Dong vanished from where she stood, and when Ye Chen saw who had arrived, he froze.

Because the newcomers were none other than Tang Ya, Bei Bei, and Huo Yuhao.

"Bei Bei, come quickly! There's another student here!" Tang Ya shouted.

There had just been two places in the Star Dou Forest that caused huge disturbances. One was where Huo Yuhao was, and the other was here.

Tang Ya had picked up Huo Yuhao over there. She wondered whether she could pick up another one here.

"Hello, little brother. My name is Tang Ya." Tang Ya eagerly introduced herself.

"My name is Ye Chen," Ye Chen said.

"Ye Chen? Did you come to the Star Dou Forest to obtain a Soul Ring? Do you want us to help you?" Tang Ya asked warmly.

Tang Ya intended to use this chance to gauge Ye Chen's strength. If he was suitable, she would recruit him into the Tang Sect.

"No need. I've already obtained my Soul Rings." As Ye Chen spoke, three Soul Rings—two purple and one black—appeared beneath his feet.

"A, a Soul Elder? And he even has a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring?" Tang Ya's eyes lit up when she saw Ye Chen's Soul Ring configuration.

She immediately began coaxing him. "Little Brother Ye Chen, do you want to join our Tang Sect? The founder of our Tang Sect was none other than Ancestor Tang San."

That tactic had worked very well on Huo Yuhao, but it had no effect whatsoever on Ye Chen.

"Sorry, I don't intend to join the Tang Sect. Goodbye." Ye Chen turned and left.

Are you kidding me? I already have the technological level of Legend of the Dragon King. Why would I join the Tang Sect? To research hidden weapons?

Shrek Academy's higher-ups might arrive soon. It was better to leave first.

After running some distance, Bibi Dong reappeared.

"That person just now was from the Tang Sect?" Bibi Dong asked.

In the world ten thousand years later, Spirit Hall no longer existed, but the Tang Sect did?

Outside the Sky Screen, Tang San, from the era of Spirit Hall, felt immensely proud upon hearing the words "Tang Sect."

It so happened that the patriarchs of the four affiliated clans were all beside him, and Tang San said excitedly.

"Did you see that? Ten thousand years later, my Tang Sect is still flourishing."

"That's right, the Tang Sect is mighty! The Sect Master is mighty!"

"The Tang Sect is mighty! The Sect Master is mighty!"

"The Tang Sect is mighty! The Sect Master is mighty!"

Tai Tan, Niu Gao, Bai He, and Yang Wudi said in unison.

Led by them, the remaining Tang Sect disciples also began shouting along.

Meanwhile, within the Sky Screen, Ye Chen casually replied to Bibi Dong's question.

"The Tang Sect is barely hanging on now. That girl you just saw is the current Sect Master of the Tang Sect."

As soon as Ye Chen said this, the Tang Sect headquarters outside the Sky Screen, which had just been shouting with impassioned enthusiasm, fell silent.

Especially the people from the four affiliated clans. They had originally planned to rely on the Tang Sect to seek a way to survive.

But judging from the Sky Screen, the Tang Sect's situation ten thousand years later did not seem optimistic.

"Don't panic. As long as the Tang Sect has its hidden weapons, it cannot decline. Besides, have you forgotten? I've already become a god! I will definitely take care of the Tang Sect."

Tang San saw that everyone was feeling somewhat dejected and immediately tried to reassure them.

Hearing this, everyone nodded and expressed their agreement. The existence of Tang Sect hidden weapons meant that the Tang Sect could not possibly decline.

"Perhaps it encountered some major crisis," the patriarchs of the four affiliated clans consoled themselves.

At this moment, Bibi Dong asked again within the Sky Screen.

"What about the people from the four affiliated clans who joined the Tang Sect?"

Bibi Dong recalled that the group who had joined the Tang Sect ten thousand years ago were precisely the four affiliated clans abandoned by the Clear Sky Sect.

Ye Chen did not even need to think before answering directly.

"The three people you just saw are the last disciples of the Tang Sect."

"As for the Tang Sect's four affiliated clans, they have probably long since ceased to exist."

Outside the Sky Screen, the patriarchs of the four affiliated clans, who had just been comforting themselves, darkened.

What did it mean that the four affiliated clans had long since ceased to exist?

Did that mean everyone in their clans was dead?

"Patriarchs, this..." Tang San was just about to explain.

The hot-tempered Niu Gao immediately waved a hand. "To hell with this Tang Sect. I'm done serving it."

Yang Wudi also took out the Aromatic Silk Beauty. "Tang San, take the Immortal Herbs back. From now on, the Breaking Clan has nothing to do with the Tang Sect."

Aside from Tai Tan and Bai He, the people of the Defense Clan and the Breaking Clan had already left the Tang Sect.

Bai He's gaze at Tang San was also extremely complicated.

At that moment, Tang San was calculating inwardly. Yang Wudi and Niu Gao knew many of the Tang Sect's secrets. If he allowed them to leave safely...

As though he had sensed Tang San's killing intent, Bai He patted Tang San on the shoulder and left with the people of the Speed Clan.

Having lost the support of three major affiliated clans, the newly established Tang Sect was instantly reduced back to square one.

Tang San was furious and immediately wrote in the chat box.

[Tang San: With the Tang Sect's hidden weapons in hand, the Tang Sect is bound to be invincible across the Douluo Continent. How could it possibly decline to such a state? This must be a rumor!]
