Douluo Continent: Disciple Tang San, righteous yet evil

Chapter 138 Lin Mu: Let me participate in the Soul Master Competition?
"Mom, he insisted on taking you back to where you were. It was only through Master's intervention that you were barely allowed to stay."

Tang San said indignantly.

He has been constantly lowering his expectations of Tang Hao, his biological father, and even trying to make amends for Tang Hao.

However, that slap woke him up.

Tang Hao not only failed to fulfill his responsibilities as a father, but also refused to admit his mistakes, preferring to make the same mistake again rather than change his ways.

The fact that they left their mother in a dark and damp cave is particularly incomprehensible.

Whatever the reason, he shouldn't have left his mother there. Even knowing there was a better environment for her to grow up in, he still insisted on bringing her back. He's hopeless!
"what?"

Upon hearing that she was to return to her original place, Ah Yin, in her illusory form, trembled, her eyes filled with shock and disbelief.

But since Tang San said it himself, she had no choice but to believe it.

Now that she finally has a chance to be reborn, how could she possibly miss it? Compared to the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire, the original cave was simply hell.

Previously, when Tang Hao placed her in a cave that was like hell, she didn't complain much.

But now that she has been moved to a place that can be called a holy land for plant spirit beasts, a place where she has hope of being reborn, how could she possibly want to go back to that cave?

How could he be so heartless?

At this moment, Ah Yin was in a state of utter confusion. She had paid such a high price, only to receive this treatment in return.

Seeing his mother's distraught state, Tang San quickly comforted her, "Mom, don't worry, I will never let you go back to that place, and Master will also help protect you."

Hearing this promise, Ah Yin finally felt relieved.

This place is extremely beneficial to plant spirit beasts, so she naturally doesn't want to leave. Having died once, she longs to live even more.

Moreover, if she stays in this place, she can still see the mistress every now and then, and receive meticulous care from the mistress's master.

Next, Ah Yin and Tang San started talking about everything.

The topic mainly focused on Tang San's growth experience, which naturally involved two people: Tang Hao and Lin Mu.

With Tang San's vivid explanation, the two of them each took on a role: one was an irresponsible father, and the other was a master who wholeheartedly cared for him.

After listening to Tang San's detailed explanation, Ah Yin was still in a daze.

Tang Hao not only disregarded her feelings, but he was also so irresponsible towards his son. What was the point of her sacrifice back then?
The only thing that made her happy was that although Xiao San didn't have a competent father, she had the best master in the world who trained her into an excellent Soul Master.

However, Lin Mu's dedication to teaching the mistress was something she could never repay.

While the two were talking, Lin Mu was collecting herbs in the herb garden.

At this moment, Dugu Bo, unable to contain his curiosity any longer, asked, "Master, is this Blue Silver Emperor truly the young master's mother?"

"That's right, she was once a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form, but she lost all her cultivation due to a sacrifice."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lin Mu stopped what she was doing, looked up at Tang San, and saw the heartwarming scene between the mother and son. The corners of her mouth couldn't help but turn up slightly.

Upon seeing this, Dugu Bo, who was about to speak, immediately swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.

Upon closer reflection, Lin Mu treats Tang San as his own son, while Blue Silver Emperor Ah Yin is Tang San's mother. Perhaps sparks could fly between the two.

After some time, Lin Mu took Tang San and left Sunset Forest.

Tiandou Royal Academy.

Upon returning to the academy, Lin Mu and Tang San arrived at the training grounds only to be informed by their waiting teacher, Sun Buyu, that the three members of the Education Committee had important matters to discuss with him. Thus, Lin Mu had no choice but to travel to the Education Committee.

Seeing Lin Mu walk in slowly, Meng Shenji quickly went to greet him, bowed slightly, and said with some urgency, "Teacher Lin Mu, you've finally arrived."

"What do the three education commissioners want with me?"

Seeing the three of them looking so impatient, Lin Mu couldn't help but frown slightly. Could it be that they wanted something from him?
Noticing Lin Mu's reaction, Meng Shenji immediately explained, "Teacher Lin Mu, it's not that we need to talk to you, but His Majesty has something he wants to ask you."

Upon hearing this, Lin Mu's brows furrowed almost together.

Although he is a teacher at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, it does not mean that he is willing to serve the Heaven Dou royal family.

Immediately, he looked up at Meng Shenji and said firmly, "Meng Shenji, if it's about appointment or something like that, then there's no need to say anything more."

Upon hearing this, all three education commissioners were taken aback.

Bai Baoshan and Zhilin, in particular, could not understand Lin Mu's answer. Since he was a member of the Heaven Dou Empire, why was Lin Mu so hostile to the Heaven Dou royal family?

Only Meng Shenji sighed sadly, his heart filled with regret for the empire losing its pillar of strength.

If Emperor Xueye had fully supported Lin Mu back then, perhaps Lin Mu's attitude towards the royal family would have been much better, at least not as resistant as it is now.

Most importantly, there will be virtually no better opportunities to win them over in the future.

After a moment of silence, Meng Shenji shook his head slightly, suppressing his thoughts, and solemnly said, "Teacher Lin Mu, this matter has nothing to do with the appointment, but rather with the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition."

"Oh?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Mu raised an eyebrow, looking somewhat surprised, and said:
"Committee Member Meng Shenji, I've already taken on the role of team leader for the Royal Fighting Team. Apart from that, the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament has nothing to do with me. Do you expect me to participate as well?"

Upon hearing this, the three education commissioners were stunned; they had never actually considered this issue.

According to the rules of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition, any young soul master under the age of 25 can participate, and Lin Mu is only 24 years old, which is below the age limit of 25.

From this perspective, Lin Mu is fully capable of participating in this year's Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition.

Moreover, with Lin Mu's strength comparable to a Super Douluo, he could easily win the championship of this tournament even if he randomly picked six mediocre teammates.

"Teacher Lin Mu, there are still two days before the competition starts. If you want to register, it's not too late."

Bai Baoshan said with a serious expression.

If Lin Mu can represent the Heaven Dou Royal Academy in the competition, it will surely bring an unprecedented victory and even have an inspiring effect.

Lin Mu simply smiled dismissively at this.

In his eyes, all the contestants, including the Golden Generation, were trash, and he could crush them even without using his martial spirit.

If we really let him participate in this Continental Elite Advanced Soul Master Tournament, wouldn't he have any shame?

At this moment, Meng Shenji spoke up: "Teacher Lin Mu, His Majesty would like to invite you to the opening ceremony of the preliminary rounds."

"Opening ceremony?"

At this moment, Lin Mu suddenly realized that Emperor Xueye had asked him to lend his support, as his current fame was even greater than that of Sword Douluo.

After thinking about it for a moment, he agreed.
