Battle Against Thunder Academy
After leaving Sword Chen Xin's room, Yu Tianshuang fell into deep thought again. She had thought she had found a clue and the mystery was about to be solved, but the more she learned, the more questions arose, and the things involved were all headaches.
If Ma Hongjun truly doesn't know he's the last descendant of the Nine Heavens Rainbow Wind Clan, that's fine. But if he has always known, then it's terrifying. He possesses a secret technique that even the former Pope Qian Xunji was willing to destroy his sect for, yet he can still be so patient. This person and his outwardly lecherous and flamboyant behavior are truly chilling to contemplate.
However, excessive forbearance will eventually lead to a subtle change. If he were in that situation, he would do everything in his power to strengthen himself. With his current ordinary genius Soul Ring configuration, even if he could eventually become Titled Douluo, what use would it be? He would just be like Chrysanthemum Ghost Douluo, easily defeated by Tang Hao.
It wasn't until the twilight shone through the window, close to dusk, that the three women's chattering voices finally broke through the hotel corridor.
This Rongrong must have spent the whole day playing with Lingling and Hairou. She's so old, yet she still has such a childlike heart. But that's alright, I hope she stays this innocent and carefree forever.
"Thunder Academy? They're also a strong team in our Tiandou Empire region. Although we haven't played against them, they're definitely a formidable force. Their captain, Yu Tianxin, and Yu Tianheng, the captain of the Heaven Dou Empire's first team, are both from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, one of the Upper Three Sects. They're incredibly powerful."
Upon hearing Shui Xinrou mention her next opponent, Yu Hairou, knowing that they were both from Five Elemental Academies, offered her explanation.
"Hairou is right. Apart from Captain Yu Tianxin, the other team members are also very strong. Moreover, Thunder Academy's fighting style has always focused on offense. Tomorrow, they will definitely end the battle quickly with Thunderous Might force. After all, we have three Auxiliary System Soul Master on our side. They can't afford to drag it out. The advantage of having three Auxiliary System Soul Master is also our disadvantage. They will definitely eliminate the three of you first, and then gang up on the remaining Tianshuang. At that time, Tianshuang will be alone and unable to fight. In my opinion, it's better to forfeit tomorrow. In a few days, Yue'er and Zhuqing will arrive. It will be safer for us to participate in the team battle then."
As the team leader of several competitions, Shui Xinrou was very familiar with the Thunder Academy, which was also located within the same empire, so she made a very prudent suggestion.
The three women remained silent and offered no opinions, instead turning their gazes to Yu Tianshuang, who stood with her arms crossed and head bowed in deep thought.
Yu Tianxin, so you're from the same sect as Yu Tianheng? I'd like to see what makes you so special, having enjoyed the resources of the Upper Three Sects since childhood.
"Teacher, I don't think we need to forfeit. As you said, under the Thunder Academy's offensive, I really can't guarantee their safety. So how about this: Rongrong and I will go on stage tomorrow. After Rongrong's buff, she can just step off the stage. During Rongrong's buff period, I will fight as hard as I can. If things don't go well, I will conserve my strength and concede."
Shui Xinrou knew what her disciple was thinking. He couldn't contain himself after hearing that Yu Tianxin was also from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. After thinking it over carefully, she decided to let him do it. Young people should be so spirited.
"Alright, then Tianshuang, your teacher supports you. Let's do as you say. But you must promise your teacher that after the amplification period ends, if you are unable to defeat your opponent, you must conserve your strength and absolutely must not get carried away."
"Dean, don't worry. With my support as the number one Auxiliary System Soul Master on the continent, Brother Tianshuang will definitely defeat Thunder Academy with Thunderous Might force, hehe."
The atmosphere, which had been somewhat tense, suddenly lightened up after Ning Rongrong's antics.
The next day, everyone arrived at the rest room at the arena early. Although Ye Lingling and Yu Hairou did not need to play, as healing-type Soul Master in the team, they could heal Yu Tianshuang immediately after the match.
"Alright, everything that needed to be said and explained was made very clear yesterday. Again, Tianshuang, don't get carried away."
Just before the competition started, Shui Xinrou gave a few more instructions and then stopped nagging. Now, the students were starting to find her long-winded, which was causing her previously aloof dean persona to gradually crumble.
After saying goodbye to the two who were not participating and Shui Xinrou, Yu Tianshuang and Ning Rongrong slowly walked towards the competition venue.
Looking at Yu Tianxin, who had blonde hair, crossed her arms, and acted arrogantly, Yu Tianxin Yu Tianshuang somewhat puzzled.
At 19 years old and with Soul Power of level 43, where did this fellow clansman, who has enjoyed the resources of the Upper Three Sects since childhood, get his arrogance? Yu Tianheng, who is also from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, is younger than him, has higher Soul Power, better talent, and is much more comfortable in dealing with people. No wonder he is the heir. The difference is immediately apparent.
Before the host could speak, Yu Tianxin raised her head arrogantly and said, "Yesterday, that guy Yu Tianheng came to see me and told me about your situation. You're practically my cousin. For Tian Heng's sake, and Aunt Erlong's sake, and of course, for the sake of your father who was expelled from the ancestral home, I won't bully you. Don't waste our time and energy, just admit defeat quickly, or I won't hold back later."
Yu Tianshuang, who had originally intended to hold back, lost all intention of doing so when she heard him speak of her father and Liu Erlong so brazenly and without any respect for his elders.
"What, do you really think you can take on seven opponents single-handedly? Our Thunder Academy team is not comparable to a ragtag team like Nightshade Academy. If you think you can defeat us just like you defeated Nightshade Academy by yourself, then you are really too naive. I'll say it again, before I change my mind, you should admit defeat, otherwise don't blame me if you get injured later."
Seeing that this ungrateful fellow dared to look at her coldly after she kindly advised him to admit defeat, she was furious. But remembering what Yu Tianheng had said yesterday, and considering Liu Erlong's feelings, she had no choice but to try to persuade him again.
"No need for further words. Now that we're on the field, we're opponents. You don't need to hold back. Fight with all your might and let me see the strength of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."
Yu Tianshuang was too lazy to waste words with this arrogant and exaggerated guy, so she just stated her position clearly to stop him from making any more noise.
"Fine, fine, since you don't know what's good for you, then you can't blame me."
Yu Tianxin thought to herself, "I tried to give you a friendly reminder, but this arrogant guy just mocked me. I really didn't get anything in return for my kindness." She laughed angrily.
