Chapter 47: Another Offer
🕑 Added 2024-02-22 16:19:52 +0000 UTCThere was no need for Qian Renxue to explain to Salas, and Salas was also unaware of what had happened between Su Wen and the 'Crown Prince'. He could only speculate based on the results.
Su Wen definitely had research results in the field of Soul Power circulation routes, and it might be even more valuable than the theory of absorbing Spirit Rings beyond one's level!
This could explain why the Crown Prince directly used the relationship with the Consecration Hall to involve Su Wen in relevant research projects.
"However, the truth must not be known to Su Wen. I have to say that I fought for him, and as for why I fought for him, I'll use his joining the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's research institute as an excuse."
Salas quickly figured out the aftermath of the situation. As for not reporting the results of Su Wen's Soul Power circulation route to Spirit Hall but instead revealing it to the Crown Prince of Heaven Dou, Salas was initially uncomfortable with it.
However, after calming down and pondering, he also clarified the crucial details.
"The young master clearly values him and decided to fully support him and provide him with resources and even used the Spirit Hall to involve him in the research project on Soul Power circulation routes. Therefore, Su Wen's performance should not have disappointed the young master."
The arrival of the Crown Prince is just a signal.
After the Crown Prince's arrival, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family also extended an invitation to Su Wen.
The one in charge of contacting Su Wen was the family's young patriarch, Yu Tianheng.
"Xiaowen."
"Captain, you represent your family, right?"
Yu Tianheng nodded and said, "Xiaowen, your talent is very high, and with Teacher Xiao Zhan training you, your future achievements will not be low. I represent the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family and want to recruit you."
"Sorry, Captain, I cannot join your family," Su Wen shook his head and directly refused.
"I also thought you wouldn't agree," Yu Tianheng felt it was only natural and had anticipated this outcome.
"So, Captain, you're just asking Xiaowen?" Yu Feng said.
Yu Tianheng replied, "Not exactly. In fact, our family intends to impart some cultivation techniques to Xiaowen. It's just that our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Spirit is of the thunder attribute, which doesn't match with Xiaowen."
The other six who were watching nodded in agreement.
It's understandable.
For a large family, investing in a talented Spirit Master is quite common, and the Great Spirit Arena is specifically established for this purpose.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family, due to Yu Tianheng's knowledge of Su Wen's identity emerging in the Great Spirit Arena and the convenience of contacting him, wouldn't easily give up the investment. Fighting side by side, coupled with some investment, having at least one Spirit Saint-level ally in the future for the family is a win-win situation.
Even if it's just a possibility, it's worth considering.
Yu Tianheng spoke to Su Wen in front of all the team members, not treating Yu Feng and others as outsiders.
"In fact, our family also sees great potential in Yu Feng and others, but we were planning to extend an invitation after graduation."
"Captain, and then?" Su Wen looked at Yu Tianheng, feeling that he had more to say.
"Although our family's inherited Martial Spirit is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, I have an aunt whose Martial Spirit mutated into a Fire Dragon Martial Spirit, also a top-notch dragon-type Martial Spirit. She is now a Spirit Saint."
Hiss...
Yu Feng took a sharp breath, his eyes full of envy.
Look, this is what it means to have a background.
The concept of a powerful family is too generalized and doesn't have a strong impact, but when someone's grandfather is a Titled Douluo, and they have an aunt who is a Spirit Saint, the impact is much stronger.
"Oh?" Su Wen naturally knew who Yu Tianheng was talking about.
"My second grandfather is currently trying to contact my aunt, asking her to take you for training for a while," Yu Tianheng said.
Su Wen looked at Yu Tianheng with surprise in his eyes.
This kid really lacks emotional intelligence.
Speaking out something that's not confirmed yet?
If Liu Erlong refuses later, the psychological impact might be counterproductive.
Yu Tianheng was unaware of this, thinking that Su Wen had a different interpretation, and quickly explained, "I didn't mean that. Xiao Zhan's Fire Demon Style, and self-created Spirit Skills, are unparalleled on the continent. While our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family may not compare, my aunt's Martial Spirit is a Fire Dragon Martial Spirit. In terms of fire attribute Spirit Skill attacks, she has her own strengths."
Even without a self-created Spirit Skill, there are numerous fire attribute Spirit Ring Spirit Skills. With a sufficient understanding of her own Spirit Ring Spirit Skills, Yu Tianheng's aunt could guide Su Wen in developing the Fire Demon Style.
Su Wen nodded to express his gratitude.
To train under Liu Erlong? Does that mean joining the Blue Tyrant Academy?
"Yanzi, doesn't your family have any response?" Yu Feng, engrossed in the gossip, asked Dugu Yan after Yu Tianheng finished speaking.
Dugu Yan rolled her eyes and said, "Although my grandfather is a Titled Douluo, our family doesn't have much influence. As for taking in disciples, let alone mentioning it, my grandfather has a poison attribute, not the same system as Xiaowen."
Yu Feng scratched his head, not feeling awkward. He then looked at Shi Mo and Shi Mô, the two brothers who also had strong families. After a moment's thought, he decided not to ask further.
Su Wen, observing Yu Feng's attitude, was somewhat speechless.
"Alright, everyone, training is still the most important," he said...
...
Blue Tyrant Academy.
Back mountain.
Inside a small wooden house, Liu Erlong looked at her father, not very interested in the request he had just made.
"Erlong, Su Wen has extraordinary talent, with a high likelihood of becoming a Spirit Douluo in the future. With the example of Xiao Zhan, who excels in the Fire Demon Style, Su Wen is likely to become a formidable Spirit Douluo. Adding Xiao Zhan to our ranks would be advantageous for the family," Yu Luomian persuaded.
However, Liu Erlong remained unmoved.
"Sigh, Erlong, I know you're still upset about what happened back then, but Xiaogang is your cousin!"
Back then, Yu Luomian sincerely hadn't done anything wrong.
"Su Wen has exceptional potential. Yesterday, we received news from Tianheng that Su Wen has joined the research institute of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, under direct orders from the Crown Prince," Yu Luomian continued, "Regardless of how Su Wen gained the Crown Prince's favor, it's undeniable that he is not just a genius in cultivation. He also possesses theoretical talent, and the Crown Prince believes that his theoretical development won't diminish his value."
"Theory?"
Liu Erlong caught onto a key point.
Yu Luomian looked at Liu Erlong, and a fleeting strangeness flashed in her eyes, causing discomfort in her heart.
This is really troublesome.
"On the royal side, Crown Prince has already made his move, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon family has also expressed their intentions, but the benefits offered are not as direct."
It's not that their conditions are bad, but they are not straightforward enough.
At this moment, Su Wen is somewhat looking forward to the scene when the wealthy Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, with which he has a connection, contacts him.
"It should be at the Great Spirit Arena, right?"
