Douluo Continent: I am the true master

Chapter 54 Double Earl

Ye Wen successfully withdrew from the fray without any major incident.

In Wuhun City, he gradually revealed the contents of his conversation with Yu Yuanzhen. Of course, this was Yu Yuanzhen's intention. After all, he was such a great Title Douluo, yet he had a useless son. It was hard for him to save face.

Now things are much better. With the endorsement of Master Ye Wen, who is famous throughout the continent, his son is not a waste. He just made a mistake during the awakening of his martial soul, which caused temporary damage to his foundation.

Furthermore, it must be said that the best light-type mimicry cultivation environment on the Douluo Continent is undoubtedly in the hands of the Spirit Hall, after all, the Angel Spirit is a dignified god-level dual-type spirit of light and fire.

In the end, Yu Yuanzhen could not withstand Yu Xiaogang's twisted and frantic pleas due to his own defects.

After the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan invested a great deal of resources, Yu Xiaogang finally got his wish and entered the light-mimicking cultivation environment he had always dreamed of.

This caused considerable discontent within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. After all, according to Ye Wen's theory, Yu Xiaogang could only ever reach the level of Soul Emperor, and with that amount of resources, ten such powerful individuals could be cultivated.

It's simply not worth it.

But what can you do when Yu Xiaogang has a good father?

Meanwhile, Yu Yuanzhen had already begun to mobilize his men to search for a thousand-year-old light-type dragon-like soul beast for Yu Xiaogang.

Ye Wen remarked that they truly lived up to their reputation as one of the three upper sects, being incredibly wealthy and powerful. He recalled how he had wasted a considerable amount of time searching for a light-type soul beast in the Star Dou Great Forest, while the other side could send a group of people to help him search with just a single command.

At this time, many forces also began to realize the profoundness of Ye Wen's theory.

At least the martial soul mutations that they usually overlook actually have so many twists and turns.

Many of them were tempted. If, according to Ye Wen's theory, those failed mutated martial souls were caused by malnutrition, then does that mean that as long as nutrition is sufficient, the martial soul of a child with a mutated martial soul will be very powerful? After all, few of those benign mutated martial souls are weak.

Later, even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School found Ye Wen and discussed it with him, since their martial soul was, to some extent, a result of a failed mutation.

Each generation of them hoped that their martial soul could transform into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. In history, a few people briefly appeared at the Eight Treasure level, but the next generation quickly reverted to the Seven Treasure level.

Therefore, they are constantly looking for a way to successfully transform their martial soul.

Based on the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's ability to sense precious energy, Ye Wen suggested to the current sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Fengzhi's father, that if the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda wanted to advance further, it should ensure that pregnant women were constantly surrounded by precious energy during pregnancy, or create a cultivation method that allowed them to absorb precious energy for cultivation.

Then the next generation could very well have a child with an eight-treasure glazed pagoda, or even a nine-treasure pagoda.

The old sect leader suddenly realized the truth as if struck by lightning, exclaiming, "The Great Dao is wondrous!"

It was precisely because the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda could sense the aura of treasure that they subconsciously forgot about the issue of treasure aura when they were studying the flaws in their martial souls. Ye Wen's reminder made the old sect master realize that the foundation of his martial soul was treasure aura.

It's understandable that such a uniquely gifted martial spirit would be downgraded due to a lack of precious energy.

Even so, the fact that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is still ranked among the super martial souls is enough to demonstrate the preciousness of this martial soul itself.

For this reason, the old sect leader specially granted Ye Wen the honorary elder's token of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and stated that if Ye Wen ever encountered any trouble in the future, he could seek help from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

However, as a condition, the old sect leader hoped that Ye Wen could guide their descendants in cultivation in the future. After all, in the Douluo Continent, strong individuals are easy to find, but renowned teachers are hard to come by.

Since he ran an academy, Ye Wen couldn't refuse a student, so he agreed.

Although the people on the mainland did not know what Ye Wen and the old sect master had talked about, seeing such a harmonious scene, they all knew that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had gained a great benefit from Ye Wen. Otherwise, the honorary elder token, which was comparable to a titled Douluo, would not be so easy to obtain.

In an instant, Ye Wen's status on the mainland was elevated once again.

Ye Wen finally received the academy territory he had been waiting for, thanks to Qian Xunji's notification.

He also met with representatives from the two empires who came to watch the battle: Xue Ye, the current crown prince of the Tian Dou Empire, and Prince Dai Lie, the representative of the Xing Luo Empire.

Both men tried their best to win over Ye Wen, a talent like him, but Ye Wen cleverly rejected them both.

Normally, Ye Wen wouldn't have much confidence facing such powerful nobles because it involves too many factors. But now, Ye Wen has Pope Qian Xunji as his backer, so neither of them dares to go too far.

Furthermore, based on their investigation of Ye Wen, they also learned the cause of Ye Wen's father's death, and dared not press the matter too hard, because they knew that Ye Wen was extremely disgusted with the war between the two empires, otherwise he would not have chosen to ask the Spirit Hall for a neutral advanced academy instead of joining either side of the two empires to obtain a noble status.

However, this situation is still relatively good for both sides. At least high-level talents like Ye Wen did not directly side with the Spirit Hall. Their secret rivalry with the Spirit Hall is no secret among the major forces.

However, in order to win over Ye Wen and prevent him from joining the Spirit Hall's camp, they made a final effort.

That is to make Ye Wen a double honorary earl with two imperial titles.

Such dual titles are not uncommon; they have done so in the past to win over the Spirit Hall.

However, once they realized the Spirit Hall's wolfish ambitions, this honorary title became meaningless, and no one bothered to mention it anymore.

Ye Wen readily accepted this title, which offered him benefits without any work to do.

Every year, the two great empires would reward Ye Wen with 10 gold soul coins and other preferential privileges such as tax exemption.

Taking this opportunity, Ye Wen also directly requested the construction teams from the two empires to help him select a site to build an advanced soul master academy.

Both sides of the empire naturally agreed to this minor matter, and they were even more satisfied after seeing the academy design drawings that Ye Wen presented.

The interior of the college is designed like a regular teaching building, but the outer wall of the college has three gates.

Facing the direction of Xingluo is a gate formed by the mouth of a roaring tiger, while facing the direction of Tiandou is a noble swan archway. The gate in the middle is rather ordinary, except for a school gate with a cross pattern surrounded by blue silver grass.

This shows that Ye Wen harbors at least no ill will towards the two great empires.
