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

The night was silent, but a storm seemed to be brewing in Lu Yu's heart.

Lu Yu stood under the eaves of the courtyard, looking up at the setting sun. The sunset glowed on his face, and the faint warmth seemed to dilute the slight irritability in his heart. He lowered his head and looked at the small package in his hand, frowning slightly.

The package was not big, but it was wrapped tightly. Although he already knew what was inside, he still felt a little embarrassed when he thought of its existence.

At this time, the courtyard door was gently pushed open, and Duguyan stood at the door, wearing a green dress that set off her cold temperament. She glanced at Lu Yu with a complicated look.

"Are you looking for me?" She walked into the yard, her voice a little low, as if she was deliberately suppressing some emotion.

Lu Yu nodded and handed over the package.

"This, I'll give it back to you." His tone was calm, but his heart was not at peace.

Dugu Yan stared at the package in silence for a few seconds, and her expression changed slightly. "What do you mean?" Her tone became a little colder, with a hint of anger.

"Literally." Lu Yu pushed the package forward and looked at her directly. "I can't take these things. I understand what you mean by giving them to me. But now, I'm giving them back to you. From now on, we owe each other nothing."

Duguyan frowned, bit her lip, and looked back and forth between the package and Lu Yu's face. "Lu Yu, do you think the things I gave you are just random?"

Lu Yu shook his head. "I understand your intentions, and I appreciate your concern for me these days. However, these things are not suitable for me to accept, and I don't want you to misunderstand anything."

"Misunderstanding?" Duguyan sneered, with a hint of sarcasm in her eyes. "Lu Yu, what are you afraid of that I will misunderstand? Or do you simply not want to accept my kindness?"

"It's not that I'm afraid you'll misunderstand me, but... I think some things should be made clear." Lu Yu sighed and his tone slowed down a bit. "Sister Yan, you're a good girl, and I know you treat me very well. But my mind is not on these things right now. I still have a lot of things to do and a lot of ways to go. I can't hold you back."

Dugu Yan was stunned, and then her eyes turned slightly red, but she quickly regained her composure. A sneer appeared on the corner of her mouth, but it couldn't hide the disappointment in her eyes.

"Can't you delay me?" She sneered, with a hint of bitterness in her voice. "Lu Yu, you are too self-righteous, aren't you? Do you need to worry about my Dugu Yan's affairs? I gave you something just because I wanted to, and it has nothing to do with whether you have any intentions or not!"

"I know you mean well, but I can't accept it." Lu Yu raised his head, his eyes calm, but revealing a hint of determination. "Especially this--"

He pointed to the package, his voice even deeper. "You understand."

Dugu Yan stared at the package, and the expression on her face finally cracked. "Lu Yu, what do you mean? Do you dislike my things?"

"It's not that I dislike it." Lu Yu sighed. "It's just... this thing is too private. If you accept it, it's like tacitly agreeing to something. I don't want you to have such an illusion, and I don't want to be unfair to you."

Dugu Yan's face turned pale and she bit her lips tightly, as if she was trying hard to suppress her emotions.

"Lu Yu, do you look down on me so much?" Her voice trembled, tears flickering in her eyes. "I, Dugu Yan, gave you the gift because I trust you and think you are worthy. But you think it is a burden and a nuisance?"

"It's not that I look down on you, nor is it a burden." Lu Yu looked her straight in the eye, his tone still calm. "It's because I respect you that I want to return this thing to you. Sister Yan, we are just friends, and I don't want you to delay yourself because of me."

"Friend?" Duguyan repeated the word softly, with an indescribable bitterness in her voice. "Lu Yu, I really underestimated you. I thought you would at least understand my feelings."

"I understand." Lu Yu lowered his head, his voice somewhat helpless. "But understanding doesn't mean I can accept it."

Dugu Yan's hands trembled slightly, and she slowly reached out to take the package, as if it was not a simple object, but a broken heart.

"Well, since you said so, I have nothing to say." Her voice was a little hoarse and a little cold. "Lu Yu, from now on, we really owe each other nothing."

After saying that, she turned around and left.

"Sister Yan..." Lu Yu opened his mouth, as if he wanted to say something, but Dugu Yan did not stop.

"Don't call me." Her voice was as cold as a knife. "If you're going to do it, do it to the end."

The courtyard door was slammed shut, leaving Lu Yu standing there alone. He looked at the air in his hands and suddenly felt a little stuffy in his chest.

"Ah..." He sighed softly.

The yard was completely silent, with only the evening breeze blowing the wind chimes under the corridor, making a crisp sound. The afterglow of the setting sun gradually faded, and the whole yard fell into twilight.

"Lu Yu, I have to formally inform you of the decision made at this academic affairs meeting."

Liu Ming, the director of the Academic Affairs Office, stood in front of Lu Yu, his tone was a bit serious. In his hand was a small space soul guide, and the colorful patterns made it easy to tell at a glance that this soul guide must contain a lot of wealth.

Lu Yu was stunned, looked up at Liu Ming, and asked in confusion: "Director Liu, what's so formal?"

Liu Ming's mouth curled up slightly, with a hint of smile in his tone: "Don't play dumb, kid. The academic affairs meeting held by the academy this time is to discuss this month's training subsidy and the reward for you winning the championship in this competition. Do you know? This reward is not simple."

"Reward?" Lu Yu was stunned for a moment, then scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "I heard there was a reward, but I didn't expect you to notify me personally. It's too much trouble for you."

Liu Ming chuckled and placed the space soul guide in Lu Yu's hand. "This is not an ordinary reward. Take it. The things inside must be very important to you."

Lu Yu looked down at the soul guide in his hand. Although he had some guesses in his mind, he couldn't help but ask, "Director Liu, what's in it?"

"Just open it and you'll know." Liu Ming seemed a little mysterious, but the smile on his face became more and more intense.

Lu Yu nodded and activated the power of the soul guide. A soft light flashed, and then a golden card appeared in his hand.

"This..." Lu Yu's eyes widened, looking at the number written on the card in disbelief, "One hundred thousand gold soul coins?"

Liu Ming nodded and said slowly: "Yes, this is your reward for winning the championship in this college competition. In order to encourage students to practice hard and to commend your performance this time, the college has specially allocated a generous reward. These 100,000 gold soul coins belong to you."

"One hundred thousand gold soul coins..." Lu Yu muttered to himself, and clenched the card in his hand with mixed feelings. As a soul master student, he had never seen such a large amount of wealth. This was undoubtedly a huge sum of money for him. "But, it's more than that." Liu Ming's words brought Lu Yu back to his senses instantly.

"What else?" Lu Yu looked up at Liu Ming in surprise.

Liu Ming smiled slightly, took out another card from his pocket and handed it to Lu Yu: "This is the academy's training subsidy for this month, 10,000 gold soul coins. Together with the 100,000 gold soul coins as the champion reward, you have received a total of 110,000 gold soul coins this time."

Lu Yu's breathing suddenly became rapid. He took the second card with both hands and felt it was heavy.

"Director Liu, I..." Lu Yu didn't know what to say for a moment.

Liu Ming waved his hand with a gratified smile on his face: "You don't have to say anything, this is what you deserve. The college has seen your efforts. This award is not only a recognition of you, but also an encouragement to other students."

Lu Yu took a deep breath, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and said: "Thank you, the college, thank you, Director Liu, I will continue to work hard and live up to the expectations of the college!"

Liu Ming nodded and patted Lu Yu on the shoulder: "Practice well, the academy is looking forward to you bringing more honor in the future."

After seeing Liu Ming off, Lu Yu returned to his dormitory. He placed two cards on the table and looked at the numbers on them, with mixed emotions surging in his heart.

"One hundred and ten thousand gold soul coins..." Lu Yu muttered to himself. He had never thought that he could have so much wealth. Looking back on his previous life, he lived frugally and practiced hard, and it all seemed like yesterday. But now, the wealth in his hands was enough to change many things for him.

Lu Yu took out a booklet and flipped it open to take a look. He wrote down his savings on the previous page, which totaled 10,000 gold soul coins. He had saved this money through some training missions. He picked up a pen and wrote a new line in the booklet:
"Current gold soul coins: 120,000."

Looking at this number, he felt a sense of satisfaction and accomplishment.

At this time, roommate Ye Ling pushed the door open and saw Lu Yu sitting at the table in a daze. He couldn't help but ask, "Lu Yu, what are you daydreaming about? Why do you look like you're going to heaven?"

Lu Yu looked up at Ye Ling, his mouth slightly raised: "Ye Ling, do you know what I got today?"

Ye Ling raised his eyebrows, closed the door, walked over to Lu Yu and sat down: "Looking at your expression, it must be a good thing, right? Tell me about it."

Lu Yu smiled and pushed two gold soul coin cards in front of Ye Ling.

"This is..." Ye Ling picked up the card and looked at it, his eyes widened instantly, "One hundred thousand? Another ten thousand? A total of one hundred and one hundred thousand gold soul coins? Lu Yu, did you rob a bank?"

Lu Yu rolled his eyes at him unhappily: "What bank robbery? This is a reward from the academy. The champion will be awarded 100,000 gold soul coins, plus this month's training subsidy of 10,000 gold soul coins."

Ye Ling took a deep breath and said exaggeratedly: "Oh my God, Lu Yu, you are rich now! One hundred and one hundred thousand gold soul coins, I have never seen so much money in my life!"

"It's indeed a lot." Lu Yu nodded, with a hint of emotion in his tone.

Ye Ling looked at Lu Yu and couldn't help but joked: "Why, are you still sighing? This is a good thing! With this money, you can buy some more good things for your training equipment. Maybe, you can even buy a few high-quality soul guides!"

Lu Yu pondered for a while and nodded: "Yes, with this money, I can indeed invest more in cultivation resources. However, I still have to plan it well and not spend it recklessly."

Ye Ling slapped the table and said with a smile: "Okay, Lu Yu, I like your steadiness. But seriously, with so much money, shouldn't you treat me to a big meal? After all, we are brothers who share weal and woe!"

Lu Yu also smiled: "No problem, a big meal is definitely necessary. When I figure out how to allocate the money, I will take you out for a good meal."

"Then I'll be waiting." Ye Ling said expectantly.

The two chatted for a while, but Lu Yu had already started to think about the next plan. This wealth was indeed a huge resource for him, but how to make good use of this money and maximize its effect was a question he needed to think carefully about.

"Next, I must work harder..." Lu Yu said silently in his heart.

"Hmph, my Tiandou Royal Academy is not afraid of your Shrek Academy." Yu Tianheng snorted coldly, his eyes revealing disdain.

"Then let's wait and see." Lu Yu smiled indifferently, as if he didn't take Yu Tianheng's provocation to heart.

Dugu Yan, who was standing by, looked at Lu Yu's calm expression and couldn't help but feel a little curious. The captain of Shrek Academy always seemed to be able to stay calm, and no matter what kind of opponent he faced, he seemed to have a plan in mind.

"Lu Yu, you'd better be careful. My Green Phosphorus Snake will not show mercy." Dugu Yan suddenly spoke with a hint of amusement in his voice.

Hearing this, Lu Yu turned to look at Dugu Yan and smiled slightly: "Of course, I also look forward to competing with you."

The conversation between the two made the audience around them boil again. They were all there to watch the fun, so they naturally hoped that the game would be more intense.

"Hmph, Lu Yu, don't die at the hands of Dugu Yan. I will defeat you with my own hands." Yu Tianheng snorted coldly, seeming dissatisfied with the conversation between Lu Yu and Dugu Yan.

Lu Yu ignored Yu Tianheng's provocation and turned his attention to the competition venue again. At this time, the players from both sides were already in place, waiting for the referee's order to officially start the game.

"Players from both teams, take your positions, and let the game begin!" With the referee's order, the game officially began.

On the Shrek Academy side, Dai Mubai took the lead in launching an attack, like a tiger descending from a mountain, heading straight for Yu Tianheng. On the Tiandou Royal Academy side, it was Dugu Yan who took the lead, her green phosphorus snake venom mist filled the air, instantly covering an area of ​​the competition venue.

Seeing this, Lu Yu dodged Dugu Yan's poisonous fog attack with a flash. At the same time, he also noticed the fight between Dai Mubai and Yu Tianheng. Both of them were power-type soul masters, and at this moment, they were fighting hard and it was hard to tell who was better.

"Hmph, it looks like this game will be very interesting." Lu Yu curled his lips into a smile, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

At this moment, Duguyan launched another attack. Her green phosphorus snake rushed towards Lu Yu like a green lightning. Lu Yu moved his body to the side and easily avoided the attack of the green phosphorus snake. At the same time, he also launched his own attack.

"First soul skill, soul-breaking slash!" Lu Yu shouted, and the long sword in his hand instantly burst into a dazzling light, and then slashed fiercely towards

Duguyan. (End of this chapter)
