Chương 20: Seizing the 3-Year Foundation of the Tang Dynasty

The two were being escorted to their family by Tuoba Ming.

Since I've taken a month's leave, I should come back right on time, otherwise the leave would have been for nothing.

"Old Deng, I'm back. I've come to see if you've been training properly."

"Xiao Deng, your father has now broken through to level 96 Super Douluo. Don't forget, your father is only in his early fifties."

"And your mother has already broken through to level 85, the Contra Master rank."

"Old Deng, I didn't expect you to be so talented. Come on, Old Yan, show us your soul power and soul rings."

After Lin Yue finished speaking, the two of them simultaneously released the fifth ring of the 100, 000-year-old weapon.

"Tch! Your sister's the same, I've seen it before!"

"Old Deng, how about trying out my fifth soul skill? I specially had a 100, 000-year-old soul beast synthesize it for me to make it the strongest single-target attack soul skill."

Lin Tian then moved his index and middle fingers forward, pulling them towards himself.

Lin Yue immediately unleashed his fifth soul skill and other soul skills to assist him.

"First Soul Skill! Dark Gold Overlord Spear!"

"Fifth Soul Skill! Piercing Rainbow Spear!"

Lin Yue then flew into the air.

Suddenly, a giant, dark golden spear phantom appeared in the sky, breaking through the clouds and rushing straight toward Lin Tian.

Cold sweat dripped down Lin Tian's body as he realized that he absolutely could not dodge this attack.

"Little Deng, I didn't expect you to have grown to this level. Even an ordinary Title Douluo probably couldn't withstand such a powerful soul skill."

"Try out my 100, 000-year-old soul skill!"

"Ninth Soul Skill! A Spear Soars Through the Sky!"

The sky changed color the instant the two spears clashed.

Lin Tian also flew into the air and caught Lin Yue.

"Old Deng, you really have no sportsmanship, using your ninth soul skill to deal with me!"

Lin Tian smiled sheepishly, knowing that if he didn't use his ninth soul skill, he would be the one who got hurt.

That would be incredibly shameful.

The battle between the two took place outside the city, and was protected by a soul-guided isolation device, so it went unnoticed.

At this moment, Lin Tian led the two back to the Lin residence.

The Lin residence has been completely renovated, and the affairs of the Taiping Cult are common knowledge within the Lin family.

Upon learning that the faction was founded by the young master, everyone eagerly joined.

Today, it can be said that the Lin family mansion is the second headquarters of the Taiping Sect.

"Old Deng, I'm planning to create a clone of myself when I turn 15."

"This is what the spirit in my mind told me; it can now transform into another version of me."

"Moreover, his martial soul can transform into any weapon martial soul, so I've decided to send him to the Sun Moon Empire."

"Old Deng, you should know that Grandpa Jing also told us this."

"Xu Tianran, the Crown Prince of the Sun Moon Empire, is now colluding with the Holy Spirit Cult to harm the people."

"I've decided to let my clone showcase its talents, join the Holy Spirit Cult, and then dismantle the Holy Spirit Cult and the Sun and Moon Empire from within."

"At that time, we will not only gain the original Douluo Three Kingdoms, but also the Sun Moon Empire."

"As for Shrek Academy, the recent Shrek Academy Freshman Competition reward is three soul bones, two of which are 100, 000 years old and one is 70, 000 years old."

"Yan Feng and I absorbed those two 100, 000-year-old soul bones, and I also gave the ordinary 10, 000-year-old soul bones I had to my teammates."

"And the Tang Clan leader..."

Lin Yue paused for a moment when he said this, and then Lin Tian asked another question.

"Tang Sect? Isn't that the Tang Sect founded by Tang San, the Sea God, ten thousand years ago?"

"Don't you know that our first ancestor had a grudge against that sea god?"

Lin Yue quickly explained, "Old Deng, of course I know. You also know that I am now the deputy sect leader of the Tang Clan."

"Moreover, I once seized the true Mysterious Heaven Technique within the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, a technique that allows ordinary people without soul power to cultivate."

"I have already promoted the technique to the Taiping Sect."

"Moreover, the Tang Clan might just be my Tang Clan."

"Why not just seize the Tang Sect directly? Wouldn't that infuriate Tang San, the Sea God?"

"Furthermore, I will find a way to transform my clone's martial soul into the Trident of the Sea God and enter the Holy Spirit Cult."

"After all, I seized the Tang Sect's true martial arts techniques and passed them on to others, yet the Sea God did not punish me. This shows that our ancestors were also helping us prevent being discovered."

"Consider this soul bone my small compensation to the sect leader."

"And is Shrek necessarily the Shrek Academy of the Sea God? I plan to take it for myself and help my ancestors weaken the Sea God's faith."

After Lin Yue finished speaking, Lin Tian nodded. The next issue was the clone problem.

"What about the clone's martial spirit?"

"Don't worry, Deng, I'll definitely find a way in the next few years."

The two then sat in deep thought for a long time.

"Xiao Deng, do you know what kind of place our Lin family mansion was located ten thousand years ago?"

"Where?"

"Jialing Pass is also the final resting place of the Spirit Hall's enshrined elders from ten thousand years ago."

"This is the site chosen by our ancestors seven thousand years ago."

"It has never moved in seven thousand years."

"Moreover, when he became a god, he left behind a message instructing us to find the remnants of the Spirit Hall from back then."

"Did you find it at Shrek Academy?"

"We found Old Deng. He still has the Serpent Spear and the Porcupine Martial Soul. He has the potential to break through to the Title Douluo level in the future."

"Your grandfather recently told me that a great era of contention is just around the corner."

"He is currently in seclusion, so he asked me to pass on some things to you."

"I know, Old Deng. I'll show you what the strongest in this era of great strife is all about."

"Then I'm relieved. Your current Soul King cultivation level is already close to that of a Super Douluo."

The father and son hadn't chatted like this in a long time. Although Lin Tian had been teaching shooting techniques every day over the years, they had rarely had a chat.

"Xiao Deng, go find your mother, she misses you."

"Okay, I'll go now."

Lin Tian watched Lin Yue's departing figure with a smile on his face.

"Mom! I'm home!"

"Xiaoyue, Mom hasn't seen you for more than three months."

Lin Yue was immediately embraced by Ye Qingqing upon his return.

However, Lin Yue was still a little shy despite being so old. Ye Qingqing showed concern and asked if he was used to Shrek Academy. They chatted for a while.

Lin Yue spent more than half a month playing in the clan before rushing back to Shrek Academy with Yan Feng.

The two arrived at Shrek Academy early in the morning.

We are having our first class.

But when I got to the classroom, there was no one there.

The two then ran to the dueling arena and found that Class 1 and Class 2 were fighting.

People from both classes looked at Lin Yue and Yan Feng.

"Squad leader! Squad leader! Are you going to fight or not?! If you're going to fight, the two of you do it, don't drag us into it!"

Lin Yue and Yan Feng were puzzled. How did we become class monitors?

"It was the teacher who said that you two went to obtain your fifth spirit rings, so the strongest person will naturally become the class monitor."

The two nodded, surprised that they had returned as class monitors.

At this moment, Lin Yue and Yan Feng stood in the dueling arena and said, "You two! Come at me together!"

I thought some people would be dissatisfied and come up in groups, but to my surprise, everyone from both classes looked scared.

"Squad leader, don't scare us. We wouldn't dare go even if it were just one of them. There are only two Soul Masters in our two squads combined."

"Okay then."

Lin Yue and Yan Feng had no choice but to speak, and then walked off the dueling arena.

I chatted with Beibei and the others.

"Xu Sanshi, I didn't expect you to have broken through to level 35. What kind of soul bone did you absorb?"

"secret!"

Lin Yue nudged Xu Sanshi and laughed and scolded him.
