Douluo Dalu: Shooting the Sun

As for old man Ye Renxin, ever since he heard about the battle at Tianxing Academy, he has been traveling with his medicine box and some servants (experts). Now he is nowhere to be found, and it is obvious that he does not want to get involved in the mess of Haotian Sect.

However, the Tiandou Empire and the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect took the case very seriously and each arranged two healing Soul Saints to treat Tang Hao and Tang Xiao. Unfortunately, the effect has not been significant. According to several healing Soul Saints, Tang Hao might not wake up without several months of continuous treatment. Tang Xiao has recovered a little, but it will probably take at least one or two years for him to fully recover.

Yu Xiaogang and Tang San mainly discussed some matters concerning the trip to the Seagod Island. According to Yu Xiaogang's plan, the Soul Master Competition was no longer being held, so it would be better for Tang San to lead all the members of the Tiandou team to the Seagod Island for training. Since the Soul Master Competition would not be held again in the future anyway, it would be better for them to work hard to improve their strength so that they could become the backbone of the fight against the Spirit Hall in the future.

However, when Yu Xiaogang told Ning Fengzhi about the plan, Ning Fengzhi and Jian Douluo looked at each other in bewilderment: Rongrong hadn't come back from Tianxing Academy yet, so how could she possibly go to Seagod Island? Moreover, Seagod Island was full of dangers, and it would be extremely difficult for Rongrong, an auxiliary spirit master, to go there, so it was better not to go.

You have to know that Ning Fengzhi's trust in Tang San is far less than that in the original. After all, in the original, Ning Rongrong has evolved into the Nine Treasures Glazed Tower that is rarely seen in ten thousand years. Both her strength and combat experience are much stronger than now.

What's more, Ning Fengzhi and Jian Douluo don't want Ning Rongrong to have anything to do with Oscar, because the current Oscar is not as outstanding as in the original.

As for the other six members of Tiandou Team, Ma Hongjun thought for a long time and refused to go to Poseidon Island. After all, Ma Hongjun's evil fire was not under control and needed to be vented regularly. There was no place to vent it on Poseidon Island, and he might even lose his life if his evil fire broke out.

The other five agreed to go to Poseidon Island. Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing were still unwilling to stay in Tiandoudi Kingdom for the rest of their lives and wanted to go out and fight. Tailong and Bai Xiaofei were purely Tang San's younger brothers and would obey Tang San no matter what he did. Oscar also decided to go to Poseidon Island after thinking for a long time. Perhaps he could change the fate of the food-type soul masters on Poseidon Island.

Yang Podi no longer paid attention to the situation outside and just continued to practice. After all, no one knew when the danger would come, especially since Yang Podi still wanted to wait for the attitude of the Spirit Hall.

Yang Podi was still somewhat afraid of Bibi Dong. Theoretically speaking, Bibi Dong was the person closest to God, because now only she and Yang Tianyue were the real candidates for God-examination. If she was allowed to risk her life to hunt for soul rings first, who knew how long it would take her to become a God?

You should know that in the original novel, among the Sea God, Angel God and Rakshasa God, only Bibi Dong did not have the sacrifice of Peerless Douluo. It can be said that she was the one who truly became a god step by step. Both Tang San and Qian Renxue received great help in passing the divine test, while Rakshasa God did not give Bibi Dong any help at all.

From this we can see that in terms of talent alone, Bibi Dong might be even better than Tang San and Qian Renxue.

After Yang Podi finished his training that day, he wanted to find Ye Lingling to discuss the issue of Ye Renxin. After all, he had now broken off relations with the Haotian Sect, and it might be dangerous for Ye Renxin to stay in Tiandou City. Especially since those people in the Haotian Sect were a group of shameless lunatics. Now that he had suffered such a great loss, who knew what they would do.

But unexpectedly, several girls were practicing together, and there was one more girl, Ning Rongrong, among them.

Yang Podi said in confusion: "Rongrong, I remember that Sect Master Ning and Jian Douluo should have left, why haven't you left yet?"

Ning Rongrong seemed to have returned to her old witch self: "My dad and Grandpa Jian have already left. I'm just staying here to play with Sister Lingling and Sister Yanyan. It won't affect their practice."

Yang Podi was full of doubts: "Don't Sect Master Ning and Jian Douluo worry about your safety?"

Ning Rongrong seemed to be full of disdain: "Is there any place in the world safer than Tianxing Academy? Now I am just an ordinary student of Tianxing Academy."

Yang Podi complained in his heart: Who allowed this little witch to stay in Tianxing College? Besides, have you ever seen an ordinary student living on the top of a mountain?

However, after looking at the expressions of Ye Lingling, Dugu Yan and Yang Tianyue beside him, Yang Podi did not say anything else.

Yang Podi hurried to find his grandfather Yang Wudi, but Yang Wudi was also conflicted: "When Haotian Sect was fighting, Qibao Liuli Sect helped us, otherwise many more people in our family would have died. Now that Sect Master Ning has spoken, it is too embarrassing to refuse."

"Besides, it's just a little girl, it shouldn't have any impact."

Yang Podi had an incredible look on his face: "Grandpa, is this an ordinary little girl? She is the young master of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. Since we have no connection with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, we should avoid suspicion. We can't fight with the Spirit Hall for her."

Yang Wudi hesitated for a long time before speaking: "Actually it's mainly because the four girls can get along well with each other. Even Tianyue and Yanyan came to see me."

Yang Podi: ...

Chapter 235: Visit from the Elemental Academy

Yang Podi returned to his room and began to think about what to do next.

Ning Rongrong is just a little girl. Now that she has demonstrated her strength, she is not worried at all about what will happen next. Even if the other five people show their strength, there will be nothing unusual. At most, Yang Tianyue will not reveal the content of the divine test.

With Yang Podi's current strength, or with the current strength of Tianxing Academy, there are nine Titled Douluo, including Yang Podi, Yang Wudi, Yang Wushuang, Yang Zhentian, Niu Gao, Niu Jinfeng, Dugu Bo, Ye Lingling, and Yang Ping'an. Together with Yang Tianyue who holds the Trident of Poseidon, it can be said that there are basically ten Titled Douluo, and in terms of strength they can even rank in the top three in the entire Douluo Continent.

The only ones who are truly stronger than Tianxing Academy are the Spirit Hall and the Star Dou Great Forest. The Spirit Hall is estimated to have fifteen Titled Douluo, including eight elders, seven priests, and Pope Bibi Dong. For the time being, this strength is one of the strongest in the entire Douluo Continent.

The core area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest is relatively more unfathomable. The number of high-level soul beasts is the highest in the world, and there are also many top masters. It is estimated that there are at least three peerless Douluo above level 99, including Di Tian, ​​Xiong Jun and Biji, not to mention the Silver Dragon King hidden in the depths. Theoretically, he is even stronger than the Spirit Hall.

Moreover, there are a lot of ten thousand year soul beasts in the Star Dou Great Forest, and there are probably quite a few hundred thousand year soul beasts hidden. If we really talk about their real combat power, I am afraid they can sweep across the two empires.

If a wave of beasts came to attack Tianxing Academy, it would be a real problem. The entire Tianxing Academy might be wiped out. Of course, according to Yang Podi's original defense plan, if they really encountered a large-scale danger, they would go directly to the Far North Forest, which was also a natural barrier.

As for Poseidon Island, Yang Podi was no longer worried. Poseidon Island was only supported by one Poseidon Douluo Poseidon, and the other seven sacred pillars were totally inadequate. Of course, it would be a different story if the Poseidon behind them was included.

Yang Podi has experienced the City of Slaughter and the Seagod Island successively. It can be said that he has experienced the baptism of divine power. Whether it is the special killing divine power in the City of Slaughter, or the Light of the Seagod and the raging waves of the Seagod Island, they all make Yang Podi extremely yearn for and admire the divine power, but also have a little fear of the divine power.

Yang Podi has become more and more obsessed with becoming a god. It seems that he has to find his own way to become a god, otherwise, everything below becoming a god is just an ant.

But becoming a god has always been elusive. In the original novel, the only ones who can become gods are Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue and Tang San, but they basically have their own inheritance of godhood.

According to Yang Podi's current estimation, Bibi Dong should have been receiving the inheritance of Rakshasa God for many years. No one probably knows her exact level of strength. You know, Qian Daoliu said that Bibi Dong is already stronger than him, but Bibi Dong's acting skills and hiding abilities are really admirable.

Qian Renxue is still lurking in the Tiandou Empire as the crown prince. It will take her at least three to five years to become a god. Yang Tianyue, the youngest sister who has the most hope among the others, is not even a Titled Douluo yet. We must find a way to help her reach level ninety-nine as soon as possible, and we must also be on guard against Poseidon's backstab at any time. It's simply full of traps of all sizes.

Recently, after sending people out to investigate, my family has gained some understanding of fire-attributed soul beasts. These soul beasts are generally concentrated in volcanoes or areas with high flame intensity, and it is generally very difficult to enter such areas. In addition to the extremely high temperatures, they also have to face attacks from various fire-attributed soul beasts.

The most important concentrations of them are in three places, namely the Flame Canyon, the Burning Mountains and the Flowing Fire Mountains. These three volcanoes are recognized as the largest gathering places for fire-attributed soul beasts. Moreover, the flames of each volcano are extremely violent, and few people can get to the deepest part.

Among them, the Flame Canyon is the territory of the Blazing Academy. The entire Blazing Academy was built on the outskirts of the Flame Canyon. It is said that all students of the Blazing Academy must enter the Flame Canyon for training, but they only train on the outskirts.

The Fire Mountain Range is located in the Xingluo Empire and is the seat of the Fire Leopard Sect, one of the lower four sects.

As for the Liuhuo Mountains, they are located in a desert northwest of the Tiandou Empire. It is said that this is an active volcano that erupts from time to time. There are few people living within hundreds of miles around it. Only some fire-attributed soul masters go there to look for soul beasts. However, many soul masters die in the Liuhuo Mountains every year, including some high-level soul masters.

Yang Podi made a careful analysis and decided that the targets were in these three places. He planned to go to the depths of these three volcanoes to see if there were any hundred thousand year old soul beasts. If that didn't work, even a ninety thousand year old soul beast would be enough.

According to Yang Podi's estimation, if he absorbs another hundred thousand year spirit ring, he should be able to barely reach level ninety-nine, and then he can proceed with the next plan.

On this day, when Yang Podi was practicing, his mother Niu Jinfeng suddenly came to inform him that she had to go to the reception hall because someone was coming to visit, and his grandfather Yang Wudi wanted him to help receive the visitor.

Yang Po Di felt a little strange. Logically speaking, the school's rules had already been formulated, and all matters needed to be carried out according to the rules. Normally, even if someone came to visit him, it would not be his turn. After all, there were a bunch of Titled Douluo at home, and he couldn't just look at them.

But when Yang Podi came to the reception room, things became even stranger.

Not only Grandpa Yang Wudi and Grandpa Niu Gao were in the reception room, but even Poison Douluo was involved. Normally, Poison Douluo would not care about such trivial matters.

The people who received them turned out to be a group of familiar faces, including Shui Bing'er from Tianshui College, Feng Xiaotian from Shenfeng College, Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang from Chihuo College, plus a passerby from Lei Ting College, whose name seemed to be Lei Dong. He was probably not from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, otherwise he would have been killed long ago.

After greeting these people, Yang Podi found a place to sit down and just relax. He simply didn't want to care about these trivial matters and didn't care too much.

At this moment, Feng Xiaotian from the Divine Wind Academy suddenly spoke up, "President Yang, our four elemental academies would like to relocate to the Arxan region. What do you think, President Yang? Or what do you need?"

Yang Wudi shook his head: "Dean Feng (Feng Xiaotian), it's not that I disagree, but you should also be aware of the current situation in the spirit master world. My Tianxing Academy is just a retreat for several of our major families. We will not interfere in any conflicts in the spirit master world in the future. I'm afraid it is not convenient for us to accept you."

Feng Xiaotian quickly said, "President Yang, you are worrying too much. We are just an ordinary spirit master academy and will not interfere in the affairs of any spirit master sects or conflicts. President Yang can rest assured about this."

……

After some communication among everyone, Yang Podi finally understood what was going on.

It turns out that the four elemental academies have been facing various threats from the Spirit Hall since the war between the three major sects, either being wooed or suppressed. In short, their lives have been very difficult.

Judging from the current posture of the Spirit Hall, it is estimated that it wants to unify the entire spirit master world. Various forces, big and small, are busy taking sides. Small and medium-sized sects either join the Spirit Hall or the two empires. Basically, there are very few forces that can stay aloof.

According to the plot of the original novel, the four elemental academies should want to move to Tiandou City, which will be relatively safer.

However, due to Yang Podi's actions, the Shrek Academy, which was in its heyday in the original novel, disappeared directly, and was replaced by the Tiandou Royal Academy. However, if the four elemental academies were allowed to join the Tiandou Royal Academy, they would probably be swallowed up by the Tiandou royal family sooner or later. Moreover, the atmosphere of the Tiandou Royal Academy is not very suitable for teaching in the elemental academies.

In fact, according to the current situation, the so-called elemental academy is composed of four family forces, among which the Blazing Fire Academy is the Huo family, the Divine Wind Academy is the Feng family, the Tianshui Academy is the Shui family, and the Thunder Academy is the Yu family. Of course, according to the actual situation, the personnel of Tianshui Academy are relatively complicated. In addition to the Shui family, there are also many civilian soul masters. The Thunder Academy is more miserable. The original direct line of the Yu family has been almost wiped out, and the rest are probably some remote side branches. Even the original captain Yu Tianxin is missing.

Yang Wudi was still a little conflicted about the joining of these sect-oriented forces, even though they were also called academies. If he really wanted to accept these four elemental academies, he was afraid that there would be endless troubles in the future.

Especially according to the current situation, both the Tiandou Royal Family and the Spirit Hall are trying to win over the four academies at the same time. If they are really allowed to join, it may cause considerable trouble.

Another point is that the operation of the entire Tianxing Academy is mainly maintained by the alchemy of the Pozhi Clan and some commercial income from Monet City. After all, the overall income is limited, and there is no extra income in such a remote place near the Far North. If these four academies are allowed to join, I am afraid I don’t know what to do in the future.

There are now more than 1,500 soul masters in Tianxing Academy, and the daily consumption is huge, especially now that the investment is basically regardless of cost. The medicinal roots alone can barely maintain such a large expenditure. If Yang Podi had not made a huge profit this time, he probably would not dare to invest so much.

Moreover, except for Tianshui College, the other three colleges only recruit nobles, or only recruit disciples from sects. This enrollment concept is completely inconsistent with Tianxing College.

Now the entire 300-kilometer area around Mount Almo is Yang Podi's fiefdom, which can even be said to be Yang Podi's private kingdom. However, neither the total population nor other aspects can support a very strong academy, and it may eventually become a huge burden.

The four elemental academies found Tianxing Academy this time, probably because they saw that the Almo Mountain area is relatively peaceful. Now in the entire continent, I am afraid that only the Almo Mountain area has no other forces that dare to get involved openly. Neither the Spirit Hall nor the Tiandou Empire will openly invade.

This also makes Tianxing Academy a rare neutral force, especially with the recent birth of the peerless strongman Yang Podi, who is simply a perfect backer.

Yang Wudi hesitated for a moment, then finally spoke to the silent Yang Podi, "Podi, what do you think? Do you agree with the four academies moving to the Almo Mountain area?"

Yang Podi glanced at Feng Xiaotian and Huo Wu, and said calmly: "My Tianxing Academy does not interfere in anything in the entire Douluo Continent. That is to say, after joining Almo Mountain, your enrollment, school rules and even management must all follow the rules of my Tianxing Academy. Can you accept this?"

"In addition, our Tianxing Academy is located in a remote area. The academy basically has no other extra income, and will not have any interactions with any other forces. Can you bear this kind of life? Can your students and teachers bear it?"

"The most important point is that if you stay near Mount Almo, you need to make a clear distinction between you and the original nobles. You must only recruit students with clean backgrounds and no disputes with the spirit master world, just like our Tianxing Academy. Can you bear this?"

When Feng Xiaotian and the others heard this, they all fell silent.

Now many big forces are recruiting their Elemental Academy, various resources and conditions are emerging one after another, and the Tiandou Empire is even willing to provide a lot of financial support.

But the current Tianxing College is just the opposite. Not only does it have no financial support, but it also has a lot of thick school rules. If the school rules are really implemented, I am afraid that there is no need for other forces to take action, and the four major colleges will disappear sooner or later.

Chapter 236 The Decision of the Elemental Academy

Yang Podi ignored the ugly expressions on everyone's faces and continued, "There are a few more points to note. Once you join Tianxing Academy, all major decisions must be voted on by the deans of the academy and cannot be made privately."

"Finally, there is one more thing. It is difficult to join our Tianxing Academy, but it is even more difficult to quit. I am afraid that you will pay a huge price by then."

When Feng Xiaotian and the others heard this, their faces started to turn green.

But Yang Podi didn't care about their expressions. After he finished speaking, he just closed his eyes and rested, not paying attention to anything else.

For other forces, the Four Elements Academies have thousands of soul masters in total, which may be a considerable force, but Yang Podi doesn't care about that at all.

Judging from the current situation, the war will start in five years at most. Both the Spirit Hall and the two empires are preparing for the future war, so they will try their best to win over various forces at all costs.

But for Yang Podi, he had no intention of joining this war. Instead of fighting to the death with several major forces, it would be better for him to watch the fun leisurely.

After all, people will die on the battlefield. Most of the people in Tianxing Academy are disciples from the four major families, and many of them are even direct disciples. As long as there is a war, casualties are always inevitable. These are their foundation. Instead of letting them fight to the death, it is better to hide. Otherwise, Yang Podi would not have chosen a remote place like Almo Mountain.

Besides, when the war is over, as long as Tianyue and I become gods, the entire Douluo Continent will be our territory. What difference will it make whether the Four Elements Academy joins or not?

At this time, Shui Bing'er on the other side suddenly spoke up: "Your Majesty Yang Podi, if we join Tianxing Academy, can you guarantee that our students and teachers will be treated equally? At least we won't be discriminated against."

Yang Podi smiled and shook his head: "In theory, this is the case. In Tianxing Academy, everything is based on the academy rules and everyone must abide by them. But you should also know that the foundation of Tianxing Academy is our original Poyi Clan, Yuyi Clan, Bilin Family and Jiuxin Family. It is normal for the academy to focus on training some core disciples."

"If you join Tianxing Academy, at least I can guarantee equal treatment. I can even guarantee that each of your four academies will have a vice-president. But I don't want anything to go wrong. After all, the four of us moved to the Almo Mountains in the far north just to find some peace and quiet."

After hearing this, Shui Bing'er hesitated and said, "I'm sorry, Your Majesty Yang Podi, I need to think about what you said when I get back."

After finishing speaking, Shui Bing'er and the others left Tianxing College. This was just an ordinary negotiation. At least they knew Yang Podi's conditions. As for the final decision, they would probably have to wait for the deans of the four colleges to make the decision.

Yang Wudi seemed a little confused after watching these people leave: "Po Di, aren't the requirements you put forward too harsh? No academy will accept such requirements."

Yang Podi shook his head: "Grandpa, we moved to this extreme north region to avoid the war between the Spirit Hall and the three upper sects, and even to avoid the conflict between the Spirit Hall and the two empires, so as not to become cannon fodder."

"The so-called Four Elements Academy is nothing more than a group of fence-sitters. Joining our Tianxing Academy may help you avoid this war. If you don't join us, you can only join the Spirit Hall or the Heaven Dou Empire. When the war breaks out, you will definitely become cannon fodder."

"We only want to live a stable life now, not to grow stronger. After all, as for the so-called Elemental Academy, there is not even a Titled Douluo, and at most there are only a few Soul Douluos, who are useless except for being cannon fodder."

Yang Wudi said with some confusion: "Although the strength of the Four Elements Academy is relatively weak, they still have potential, especially these young people, who can be regarded as Titled Douluo. It's a pity to miss them."

Yang Podi shook his head: "They are just Titled Douluo. Judging from the current situation, in five years at the shortest and ten years at the longest, the entire Douluo Continent will usher in a huge change. By then, this group of people will at most break through to the Soul Saint realm. Does our Tianxing Academy still need these few Soul Saints?"

"Besides, it's not worth it to drag ourselves into this vortex for this little soul master. It's better for us to develop on our own. After all, the Tianxing Academy was established to strengthen our four major families, not to train talents for other forces."

Yang Wudi and his companions could not help but nod their heads when they heard this. Lowering their posture to attract the four elemental academies to join would indeed strengthen Tianxing Academy in a short period of time, but this was completely putting the cart before the horse. Tianxing Academy was not trying to fight for hegemony, but only to avoid war.

Dugu Bo suddenly spoke up: "Old goat, old rhino, these little monsters said it very well. Under the current situation, it will be useless even if there are more Titled Douluo. Besides, our academy is just for our four families to survive for ten thousand years, and we don't want to care about the outside world. What do we need so many people for?"

Yang Wudi: ...

Niu Gao: ...

After the five people from the Elemental Academy left, they were all thinking about the issues raised in this conversation, and even the future development of the academy.

Lei Dong from Thunder Academy spoke first, "Tian Xing Academy's requirements are too strict. We at Thunder Academy probably can't meet them. We originally relied on the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family, and many people within the academy have various connections with the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family and Tian Xing Academy have always had some issues, so I'm afraid it will be difficult for us to treat them fairly."

"Furthermore, Tianxing Academy's stance on seclusion is completely inconsistent with the stances of our Thunder Academy and Spirit Hall. I'm afraid they are deliberately saying that, purely because they don't want to accept our Thunder Academy, nor do they want to oppose Spirit Hall."

Feng Xiaotian on the side was a little tangled: "Lei Dong, what do you plan to do?"

Lei Dongdong shook his head: "I didn't have much hope for Tianxing College. I planned to lead the college to Tiandou City. Now only Tiandou City can accommodate us. Besides, Senior Liu Erlong is the dean of Lanba College, and Senior Yu Xiaogang is the leader of Tiandou Royal College. These two are the only remaining members of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. They can also get some care in Tiandou City, so I plan to go to Lanba College."

The other four nodded when they heard this. For Thunder Academy, going to Blue Bully Academy was indeed a very good option.

Shui Bing'er from Tianshui College suddenly spoke up: "The teaching philosophy of Tianxing College is somewhat similar to our Tianshui College, and the Far North is very suitable for our Tianshui College. I plan to lead Tianshui College to join Tianxing College."

When they heard this, they all remained silent. Compared with the other major elemental academies, Tianshui Academy was indeed an outlier. Tianshui Academy was also the only academy among all elemental academies that recruited civilian students.

Huo Wu said to Feng Xiaotian beside her: "Xiaotian, what do you think?"

Feng Xiaotian shook his head. "It's hard for me to make a decision. Tiandou City is more suitable for the development of our Shenfeng Academy, but whether it's the Tiandou Royal Family, Haotian Sect, or Qibao Liuli Sect, they are all eyeing us covetously. Being caught between these three forces may be dangerous. If things go wrong, we may be swallowed up by them."

In fact, in the original novel, Shrek Academy is just a pseudonym for the three upper sects, and all actions are basically centered around Tang San. Ten thousand years later, Shrek Academy does not have the elemental families that joined at the beginning, at least no Fire Family, Water Family, and Wind Family.

Huo Wushuang on the side suddenly said: "Xiao Wu, I plan to tell my father and grandfather that I will lead Chihuo Academy to join Tianxing Academy."

In Chihuo Academy, although Huo Wu is dazzling and is deeply loved by the elders of the family, the real captain is Huo Wushuang, who is the true direct descendant of Chihuo Academy. Moreover, looking at the entire original work, Huo Wu is relatively flamboyant, and her behavior is quite extreme and childish, but Huo Wushuang is more stable.

Huo Wu looked a little puzzled: "Brother, Tianxing Academy has so many requirements. I'm afraid that our Chihuo Academy won't have any good development after joining."

Huo Wushuang shook his head: "We also fought against Tiandou Team 2 many times before, so we should understand the strength of the members of Tiandou Team 2. But according to the information I found out later, Niu Meng's strength was originally similar to Tai Long and Bai Xiaofei of Tiandou Team 1, but when they really fought, they were basically at two different levels. It can be seen that Yang Podi is very good at teaching and research."
