"Speaking of which, Brother Yun, what exactly happened to you these past ten days?" Xiao Xiao's tone was filled with worry.
"I just casually killed a Titled Douluo and broke through another rank in the process," Lin Yun said with a slight smile, his tone incredibly casual.
"Ti… Titled Douluo?!"
Ling Luochen and Yao Haoxuan were stunned, Ning Tian and Wu Feng were stunned, Beibei and Xu Sanshi were stunned, and Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong were also stunned.
How could he speak of 'killing a Titled Douluo' so lightly, as if it were as normal as eating a fish for dinner?
Xiao Xiao was on the verge of tears. Such a huge event had happened to Lin Yun, and she hadn't even known. If Lin Yun wasn't sitting in front of her, perfectly fine, she didn't know how guilty she would feel.
"Don't worry, it really was just casually," Lin Yun said, looking at Xiao Xiao's slightly reddened eyes, and smiling as he rubbed her little head.
After all, Lin Yun hadn't even touched Cheng Gang throughout the entire fight, except for catching his head at the very end. If Ice Empress had to exert herself to the point where Lin Yun had to fight desperately, then she would be too inept.
Ice Empress: Why are you cursing me so harshly?
"So, you're already rank fifty-seven?" Ling Luochen suddenly asked, her eyes far from calm.
Yao Haoxuan was even more exaggerated than Ling Luochen; he was starting to doubt his life at this point.
Why is it that you, an ultimate attribute Soul Master, break through even faster than us mortals?
I don't understand!
Lin Yun nodded naturally. As the big shot who never unplugged his USB drive from beginning to end, isn't it normal for breakthroughs to be as easy as eating and drinking?
Ling, Yao: Damn it!
In contrast, the members of the reserve team were already immune. Since the beginning of the semester, they had witnessed Lin Yun's myth and had long since gotten used to it. Even if Lin Yun were to immediately break through to Titled Douluo right now, they would only be momentarily shocked before quickly regaining their composure.
It's just breaking through to Titled Douluo, no big deal.
Only Beibei was an exception.
Xu Sanshi was fine, having had the experience of being blown away by Lin Yun's three punches. But Beibei was different. As a fellow Dragon-type martial soul user, he, Senior Beibei, was the one from the Shrek Outer Court who was constantly pulled out and compared to Lin Yun, then repeatedly flogged.
He had heard people compare himself and Lin Yun more than once, and he was completely outmatched by Lin Yun in every aspect.
Beibei's mentality was collapsing.
It was a pity Tang Ya wasn't here, and there wasn't even anyone to comfort him. What was even more interesting was that after Beibei returned to Shrek after participating in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament, even Tang Ya, his last girlfriend, would leave him.
In the distant Heaven Dou City.
Tang Ya, who had secretly dropped out of Shrek and kept it from Beibei, had been back here for a week.
The day she returned to Heaven Dou City, the Iron Blood Sect, the local overlord who had seized the Tang Sect's foundation, received news of Tang Ya's return to Heaven Dou City. And the first thing Tang Ya did upon returning to Heaven Dou City was to try and rebuild the Tang Sect.
The Iron Blood Sect members immediately thought, how could this be tolerated?
It hadn't even been ten years since their sect wiped out the Tang Sect, and these past few years they had almost entirely developed by feeding on the Tang Sect's former remains.
Now, Tang Ya wanted to rebuild the Tang Sect in Heaven Dou City? Wasn't that just purely writing 'I want revenge' all over her face?
So the Iron Blood Sect began to act.
Heaven Dou City was no longer the capital of the Heaven Spirit Empire. The city's existence was more like a memorial to the former Heaven Dou Empire.
Therefore, there weren't many powerful forces in Heaven Dou City, and the Iron Blood Sect was considered an upper-tier sect among them, with a Soul Emperor in charge. Their connections were not small; even within the Heaven Dou City's defense army, they had their people.
After confirming that Tang Ya was a remnant of the former Tang Sect, the Iron Blood Sect began to suppress Tang Ya in all aspects.
The first was the location where Tang Ya wanted to rebuild the Tang Sect. When she tried to find a new base for the Tang Sect, she encountered unprecedented obstacles.
More simply put: no money.
What if Tang Ya was a student of Shrek Academy? Her cultivation had only just broken through to Soul Sect, and even this Soul Sect cultivation was achieved only by actively using her martial soul's devouring talent.
Could you expect a Soul Sect to have much money?
Clearly, it was impossible.
Under the arrangement of the Iron Blood Sect, every place Tang Ya went to select a site, she would receive an exorbitant price that she simply could not accept.
The sect's site selection was completely choked by the Iron Blood Sect in collaboration with the Heaven Dou City forces, and in her daily life, Tang Ya was constantly subjected to oppression and discrimination.
In just one week, Tang Ya was already close to collapse.
No matter what, she was still just a fifteen-year-old girl. She didn't have such a resilient heart, nor did she have such a firm will.
Passing by the vermilion gate once more, looking at the plaque hanging in front of it, the three characters "Iron Blood Sect" were so dazzling in Tang Ya's eyes. All the efforts she had made to revive the Tang Sect seemed like a ridiculous joke.
"Dad, Mom…" Tang Ya closed her eyes, tears slowly rolling down her cheeks, finally splashing slightly on the ground.
"Xiaoya is so tired…"
"Reviving the Tang Sect, Xiaoya probably can't do it."
"But… I will make these bastards who seized our Tang Sect's foundation go to hell and be buried with us!"
Tang Ya suddenly opened her eyes, her sky-blue pupils shifting to a dark blue, with a deep, soul-devouring black light flickering in their depths.
She completely accepted the dark side of her martial soul, unreservedly embracing the devouring power hidden deep within her bloodline. At this moment, Tang Ya's originally ordinary Blue Silver Grass martial soul instantly evolved into the top-tier martial soul, Dark Blue Silver King.
"Die!!!"
Dark Blue Silver King, Wild Growth!
Just as in the original novel, the 'blackened' Tang Ya, who was ten times stronger, nearly annihilated the Iron Blood Sect with just her Soul Sect cultivation, and at the very end, tried to perish with the Iron Blood Sect's Soul Emperor.
Ultimately, Tang Ya survived, while the Iron Blood Sect was completely wiped out.
Because of the black-robed man standing beside her, Scorpion Tiger Douluo Zhang Peng.
His martial soul was the Scorpion Tiger, and he was a rank ninety-five Super Douluo, one of the consecrated powerhouses of the Holy Spirit Cult.
He had originally just intended to get some Fierce Beasts blood to aid his cultivation, but when he passed through Heaven Dou City, he discovered Tang Ya, such a talented evil Soul Master. Delighted by the hunt, he simply watched Tang Ya kill and devour the members of the Iron Blood Sect one by one, until the very end, when Tang Ya's life hung by a thread, he chose to act.
With a single chop to Tang Ya's back neck, he sent the somewhat crazed Tang Ya into a childlike sleep. Zhang Peng's face, hidden beneath his hood, revealed a smile.
"Hehehehehe..."
"Holy Spirit Cult, welcome the Blue Silver Saintess!"
Ignoring the Heaven Dou City powerhouses rushing towards the location, Zhang Peng vanished instantly with Tang Ya, leaving no trace.
