Douluo: One man returns, Fan Tianyin smashes Tang San to death

"Then...will we have a chance to meet again in the future?" Lu Yu couldn't help but ask.

Ye Lingling's eyes flashed with a complicated look when she heard this. She looked at Lu Yu and said, "Maybe. This world is big, but also small. If we are destined to meet, we will meet again."

Lu Yu nodded, praying silently in his heart that they could meet again.

At this moment, a burst of hurried footsteps broke the tranquility of the lake. A boy in a sky blue school uniform ran over in a hurry, his eyes swept over Lu Yu and Ye Lingling, and finally fell on Ye Lingling.

"Lingling, you are here indeed!" The young man's tone contained a hint of surprise and eagerness.

Ye Lingling frowned slightly when she heard this: "Why are you here? Didn't I tell you not to come to see me?"

Hearing this, the young man showed a bit of embarrassment on his face: "I... I am worried about you. After all, you come out alone, what if you encounter any danger?"

Ye Lingling sighed softly and said, "What kind of danger could I encounter? Besides, didn't you send someone to protect me in secret?"

Hearing this, the young man scratched his head and said, "Hehe, I'm just worried. After all, this Soul Master Competition has attracted many Soul Masters. What if we run into someone with bad intentions..."

"Okay, stop talking." Ye Lingling interrupted the young man and said, "Let's go back."

Upon hearing this, the young man nodded quickly and swept his eyes over Lu Yu with a bit of vigilance and hostility.

Lu Yu couldn't help but feel helpless. He could see that the boy had a special feeling for Ye Lingling. But what did this have to do with him?

"Have a nice trip." Lu Yu clasped his fists and said.

Ye Lingling nodded gently, and turned to leave with the boy. Her figure gradually went away, and finally disappeared from Lu Yu's sight.

Lu Yu stood in the same place, his eyes still fixed on the direction where Ye Lingling disappeared, and his heart could not calm down for a long time.

……

On the other side, Ye Lingling and the boy returned to the inn they were staying in. As soon as they entered the room, the boy couldn't wait to ask: "Lingling, who is that man? Why are you with him?"

Ye Lingling frowned slightly when she heard this: "He is just a person I met by chance by the lake. You don't have to take it too seriously."

Hearing this, the young man couldn't help but feel unhappy: "Meet by chance? How could you meet him by chance? And the way he looked at you..."

"That's enough!" Ye Lingling interrupted the young man, her tone a little unhappy, "Can you stop being so suspicious? He is just a stranger, there is nothing between him and me."

The young man's heart shuddered when he heard this. He could see that Ye Lingling was already a little angry. He quickly smiled and said, "Okay, okay, I'm wrong. I shouldn't be so suspicious. But, Lingling, you have to promise me that you won't talk to strangers anymore."

Ye Lingling sighed softly and said, "I understand. Don't worry, I won't talk to strangers casually."

Hearing this, the young man nodded in satisfaction. He took Ye Lingling's hand and said, "Lingling, I know you are not interested in this Soul Master Competition. But since we are already here, why not take a good look? Who knows, you might meet some interesting people."

Ye Lingling heard this and shook her head gently: "No, I'm not interested in these. Let's go back early."

The young man couldn't help but feel a little disappointed when he heard this. But he also knew that Ye Lingling's personality was like this. If she didn't like something, no matter how much others advised her, it would be useless.

"Well, since you don't want to see it, let's go back." said the boy.

Ye Lingling nodded slightly, packed up her things with the boy, and left the inn.

……

In the next few days, Lu Yu was immersed in cultivation. His strength was far from strong enough. If he wanted to gain a foothold in the future soul master world, he had to constantly improve his strength.

However, just when Lu Yu was practicing in full swing, a piece of news forced him to put his practice on hold temporarily.

It turned out that Ye Lingling's academy had achieved good results in the Soul Master Competition and successfully advanced to the finals. The location of the finals was exactly the city where Lu Yu was.

After hearing the news, Lu Yu couldn't help but feel excited. He didn't expect that he would have the chance to see Ye Lingling again.

On the day of the final, Lu Yu arrived at the competition site early. He searched the crowd, hoping to see that beautiful figure again.

However, when the game officially started, Lu Yu discovered something that surprised him. That was, Ye Lingling did not appear on the field.

Lu Yu couldn't help but feel confused. Could it be that Ye Lingling didn't participate in this competition? Or was she unable to play for some reason?
At this moment, a familiar figure appeared in his sight. It was the dean of Ye Lingling's college, a middle-aged man who looked quite elegant.

Lu Yu's heart moved, and he quickly took a few steps forward to block the middle-aged man's way.

"Excuse me, are you the dean of the college where Ye Lingling is studying?" Lu Yu asked.

The middle-aged man was slightly stunned when he heard this, then nodded: "Yes, I am. May I ask what can I do for you?"

Lu Yu quickly asked, "Excuse me, why didn't Ye Lingling participate in the competition? Did something happen to her?"

The middle-aged man heard this and a complicated look flashed across his eyes. He looked at Lu Yu and said, "Do you know Lingling?"

Lu Yu nodded: "I guess we know each other. We've met once before."

The middle-aged man sighed softly after hearing this: "Lingling...actually nothing happened to her. It's just that she doesn't want to participate in this competition."

Hearing this, Lu Yu couldn't help but feel a little surprised: "Why? Isn't she a contestant from your academy?"

The middle-aged man shook his head. "Although she is one of our contestants, she doesn't like this kind of competition. The reason she joined our academy is only because her family hopes that she can get in touch with more people and gain more experience."

"Strange, my mental power can't detect her?"

Lu Yu frowned slightly, his eyes swept across everyone in Shrek Academy, and finally stopped on a woman who looked very cold.

The woman was wearing an aqua green dress, her skin was whiter than snow, and her long hair was loose, like a fairy from heaven, but she exuded an aura that kept people at a distance.

"That shouldn't be the case. Although my mental power is not that strong, it should be no problem to detect a great soul master who is only at level 38."

Lu Yu muttered to himself that his mental power was outstanding among soul masters of the same level. Even some four-ring soul masters could not match his mental power.

However, he could not detect any information about the woman in front of him. He could only vaguely sense that her cultivation was only level 38.

"Is it because of her martial spirit?"

Lu Yu's gaze lingered on the martial spirit that emerged on the woman's chest for a moment, and a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

The woman's martial spirit was very strange. It looked like a crabapple flower, but had nine petals. Each petal was crystal clear and emitted a faint fluorescence, giving people a mysterious feeling.

"Nine-Hearted Begonia, it's actually a Nine-Hearted Begonia!"

Lu Yu was shocked. He finally understood why he couldn't detect any information about this woman.

The Nine-Hearted Begonia, as one of the most powerful auxiliary martial spirits on Douluo Continent, has the characteristic of healing, and it ignores any injuries. As long as the spirit master still has a breath, it can pull him back from the brink of death.

But the Nine-Hearted Begonia also has a fatal flaw, which is that only one soul master in each generation can possess it, and at the same time, can only have one soul skill.

It is also because of this that the inheritance of the Nine-Hearted Begonia is very difficult. Once a soul master who possesses the Nine-Hearted Begonia dies, this martial soul will disappear with the death of the inheritor until the next generation of soul masters with the Nine-Hearted Begonia martial soul appears.

"Lu Yu, what's wrong?"

Ning Rongrong saw Lu Yu staring at Ye Lingling and couldn't help but ask.

"Nothing, just a little curious."

"Curious? What are you curious about Ye Lingling?"

Ning Rongrong frowned when she heard this, and a hint of vigilance flashed in her eyes.

Although Ye Lingling has a cold personality, she is extremely beautiful. Ning Rongrong is worried that Lu Yu will be attracted to her.

"I have no interest in her. I'm just a little curious about her martial spirit."

Lu Yu seemed to see through Ning Rongrong's thoughts and said with a chuckle.

"Hmph, that's best."

Ning Rongrong snorted when she heard that, and put her arms around Lu Yu's arm to assert her sovereignty.

Seeing this, Lu Yu smiled helplessly in his heart. He found that since he and Ning Rongrong had established their relationship, this girl's possessiveness had become stronger and stronger. However, Lu Yu did not dislike this, but felt very enjoyable.

"Rongrong, don't worry, you are the only one in my heart."

Lu Yu said softly, his eyes full of tenderness.

Ning Rongrong smiled with satisfaction upon hearing this.

"Hmph, I'm sorry you don't dare either."

Ning Rongrong said proudly.

At this time, Dean Flanders had already announced the rules of the competition.

"Both team members enter!"

Following the order from Dean Flanders, the Shrek Seven Devils and the second team members of Tiandou Royal Academy entered the venue one after another.

Lu Yu's eyes swept over the members of the second team of Tiandou Royal Academy, and finally stopped on the young man in the lead.

The young man was tall and handsome, exuding a faint aristocratic aura, and his cultivation had reached the level of a four-ring soul master.

"Yu Tianheng?"

Lu Yu looked at the young man, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Yu Tianheng is a genius soul master of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family and the captain of the second team of Tiandou Royal Academy.

Lu Yu didn't expect to meet him here.

"Huh, Lu Yu, I didn't expect to meet you here."

Yu Tianheng looked at Lu Yu, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

At the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition, Lu Yu defeated the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family team on his own, making the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family lose face.

As a genius soul master of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, Yu Tianheng naturally hated Lu Yu to the core.

"Oh? It's you. I didn't expect you to be so capable that you can lead the second team of Tiandou Royal Academy into the finals."

Lu Yu looked at Yu Tianheng and said lightly.

"Lu Yu, don't be so arrogant, today is the day you die!"

Upon hearing this, Yu Tianheng's face darkened and a strong murderous intent emanated from his body.

"Haha, just you?"

Lu Yu chuckled and didn't take Yu Tianheng seriously at all.

"you!"

Yu Tianheng was angered by Lu Yu's attitude, his soul ring lit up instantly, and a powerful aura emanated from him.

Yu Tianheng let out a low shout and quickly formed seals with his hands. Then bolts of lightning shot out from his palms and coiled towards Lu Yu.

"Huh, what a small skill."

Lu Yu snorted coldly, and with a flash of his body, he easily avoided Yu Tianheng's attack.

"Second soul skill, lightning attack!"

Seeing that his first attack missed, Yu Tianheng launched another attack. His body turned into a flash of lightning and rushed towards Lu Yu.

"act recklessly."

Lu Yu looked at Yu Tianheng who was rushing towards him, a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes. He did not move, but just gently raised his right hand, with his palm facing Yu Tianheng.

"Certainly!"

Lu Yu shouted softly, and an invisible force shot out from his palm, instantly freezing Yu Tianding in place, unable to move at all.

"What...what's going on?"

Yu Tianheng's eyes widened, his face full of horror.

He never expected that he would be pinned down by Lu Yu so easily.

"Humph, you want to kill me with just this little ability, how ridiculous."

Lu Yu looked at Yu Tianheng and said coldly.

After saying that, Lu Yu waved his hand lightly, and the restraints on Yu Tianheng disappeared instantly. He staggered back a few steps, his face as pale as paper.

"You...who are you?"

Yu Tianheng looked at Lu Yu with fear in his eyes.

He had never expected that Lu Yu's strength was so terrifying that he couldn't even take a single move from him.

"Who am I? You don't deserve to know."

Lu Yu said lightly, and then he no longer paid attention to Yu Tianheng, but turned his gaze to the other members of the Tiandou Royal Academy Team 2.

Those team members were shocked by Lu Yu's strength. They were all silent and dared not make any unusual movements.

"Okay, let's continue the game."

Lu Yu said lightly, and then he retreated back to the Shrek Seven Devils team.

Dean Flanders secretly breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. He had not expected that Lu Yu's strength was so strong that even Yu Tianheng of the Four Ring Soul Sect was not his match in one move.

With Lu Yu here, it is a foregone conclusion that the Shrek Seven Devils will win the game.

Sure enough, the following game turned into a one-sided crushing by the Shrek Seven Devils.

Under the leadership of Lu Yu, Dai Mubai and Tang San, the Shrek Seven Devils quickly defeated the second team of Tiandou Royal Academy and won the game.

"we won!"

After the game, the Shrek Seven Devils cheered, their faces filled with joy.

They didn't expect that they could win so easily.

"Lu Yu, you are so amazing!"

Ning Rongrong ran to Lu Yu, hugged Lu Yu's arm, her face full of admiration.

"Hehe, it's nothing, they are just too weak."

Lu Yu chuckled and said lightly.

"Tsk, don't be so modest, we all know you are very capable."

Oscar said with a pout.

"Okay, everyone, stop making trouble and go back first."

Dean Flanders spoke up.

Hearing this, the Shrek Seven Devils all nodded and followed Dean Flanders back to the academy. (End of this chapter)
