"Of course I'll participate. This is a grand event, and I've been eager to see just how strong the other academies really are."
Jun Yi's face was beaming with smiles. Now he would be able to see many of the named characters from the original story, and also Skywater Academy, hehehe, Skywater Academy...
Jun Yi agreed to participate, Qin Ming's face lit up with joy, and he continued, "In that case, I'll register you. We've invited many academies for this competition, and it's divided into individual and team events. Which one would you like to participate in?"
"Can I register for two at the same time?" Jun Yi asked.
"Of course you can. The individual and team competitions are separate, and everyone can register for both. However, the teams participating in the team competition are basically teams from various academies preparing for the next All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament. If you register, you'll be assigned to our team, which is a bit unfair to you, but it will also fill the gaps in our team's numbers."
Qin Ming paused for a moment, then voiced his concern, "After all, your current Soul Power is only level 33, while most students preparing for the next competition are around level 38 or 39. You'll be at a significant disadvantage."
"Oh, so that's what you were worried about, Teacher Qin. It's alright, I've already broken through."
As he spoke, he released his Soul Power fluctuations, revealing Soul Power level of 39. Last night, Jun Yi had made another breakthrough, and his Soul Power Level had reached 39.
"W-what? How did your Soul Power suddenly increase so much? Did your Martial Soul evolve as well?"
Qin Ming felt Jun Yi's level 39 Soul Power, his eyes filled with disbelief.
"What does Teacher Qin mean by that?" Jun Yi, somewhat puzzled.
Faced with Jun Yi's question, Qin Ming composed himself, confirmed again that Jun Yi's Soul Power was indeed level 39, and then told Jun Yi what had happened yesterday:
"I forgot, you weren't at the academy yesterday. Here's what happened: when Dugu Yan returned to the academy yesterday, she got into an argument with Yu Tianheng for some reason. According to some students who were watching, it seems that Dugu Yan rejected Yu Tianheng's advances in public, which angered him, and he then attacked her."
" Dugu Yan struck Yu Tianheng with a single move, leaving him severely injured and unconscious. This incident alarmed the school and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, who sent an elder to our academy to demand an explanation."
"And Dugu Yan's grandfather, the eccentric Poison Douluo, also came to the academy. In order to prevent the matter from escalating, the school mediated. It was then that we learned from the Poison Douluo that Dugu Yan's Martial Soul had evolved, and her Soul Power had directly reached level 52."
Qin Ming's tone was full of emotion as he said, "This is the first time I've known that Martial Soul Evolution could bring such a significant boost to Soul Master."
Hearing this, Jun Yi nodded, looking Da Ming, and said, "I see. No wonder you said earlier that one team was missing someone. I was a little confused. It turns out that Yu Tianheng broke down after his advances were rejected and was seriously injured by Sister Yan. He really is a clown."
Qin Ming's expression turned strange. Everyone else would be shocked to hear about the Martial Soul Evolution, but he couldn't detect even a hint of surprise in Jun Yi's expression.
" Jun Yi, do you already know that Dugu Yan Yan's Martial Soul Evolution?" Qin Ming asked tentatively.
"Of course I know, I was there at the time," Jun Yi replied without hiding anything.
"As I thought. Then your Martial Soul..."
"Teacher, I have a question. Wasn't Yu Tianheng seriously injured yesterday? Shouldn't he have recovered quickly and been able to participate in the competition?"
Jun Yi voiced his curiosity, which coincidentally interrupted Qin Ming's question.
"Originally, a simple treatment would have been enough to cure him, but when Poison Douluo learned that Yu Tianheng had struck first, he was furious and poisoned Yu Tianheng right in front of the elder, saying he would keep him paralyzed in bed for a month."
Qin Ming's expression showed lingering fear. He was naturally present during the mediation, and the way Dugu Bo poisoned the victim in front of the Soul Douluo elder and several education committee members left Qin Ming with lingering fear.
Dugu Bo merely raised his finger, and Yu Tianheng was inexplicably poisoned. At first, no one present noticed until Yu Tianheng screamed in agony, at which point everyone realized that Dugu Bo had made his move.
"The methods of Titled Douluo are indeed mysterious and unpredictable," Qin Ming remarked.
When Qin Ming wanted to see Jun Yi's reaction, he heard Jun Yi say, " Sister Yan is so fierce, and Grandpa Dugu so ruthless."
" Jun Yi, please stop laughing."
Qin Ming Jun Yi's face, and then remembered that Yu Tianheng had inexplicably provoked Jun Yi before, so Jun Yi's reaction was quite normal.
"I'm sorry, teacher, I just remembered something happy."
Jun Yi covered his mouth, trying to stop himself from laughing, but he still found it hard to hold it in.
Qin Ming shook his head helplessly and asked, " Jun Yi, has your Martial Soul evolved? Is that why your Soul Power has increased so much?"
"You could say that. I got a few herbs from Grandpa Dugu, and after taking them, my Martial Soul changed, and my Soul Power also increased," Jun Yi replied.
" Jun Yi, could the ' Grandpa Dugu ' you're talking about be the Poison Douluo?"
"Yes, after I left the academy a few days ago, I spent several days with Grandpa Dugu and Sister Yan," Jun Yi said with a smile.
"I see, I see." Qin Ming Satori that all of this was the work of Poison Douluo, which explained everything.
" Jun Yi, if you don't have anything to do today, how about you join us for training and practice?" Qin Ming asked Jun Yi.
"I don't think I have anything planned for today." Jun Yi thought for a moment and then shook his head; he didn't have any plans for the day.
"Okay, then come with me."
Qin Ming put down his teacup, stood up, and headed to the training ground, with Jun Yi following closely behind.
At the entrance of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect School, Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo were all there, preparing to see Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing off.
" Rongrong, are you sure you don't Jun Yi again?" Ning Fengzhi asked Ning Rongrong with a smile.
Ning Rongrong shook her head and replied, "No, Dad. I wrote him a letter and have already sent it to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy."
Bone Douluo then advised from the side, "It would be best to meet him. Kid Jun will return to the Spirit Hall Academy, and who knows when we'll see each other again."
