Chapter 286 Returning to Heaven Dou City, Lined Streets of Welcome, Some Rejoice, Some Hate
"We only need to seize the time over these few years to improve our strength. With the help of the Immortal Herbs, I am confident I can Breakthrough to Spirit Douluo within ten years! At that time, combined with my hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ability, I'll have the confidence to face a true Titled Douluo!"
"And with the help of the Immortal Herbs, your future Cultivate path will also speed up significantly. You only need to reach a level of cultivation similar to Thousand Jun or Demon Subduing. At that time, with one Titled Douluo-level combatant and one Offering-level combatant, even Spirit Hall will be wary of taking action against us!"
"Furthermore, the responsibility of the Hall of Offerings is to deal with Evil Soul Masters, not normal Spirit Masters like us! Think about it, once you reach rank ninety-seven, even if Her Holiness the Supreme Pontiff wants to move against you, it will be no easy task!"
Listening to Sun Yu's words and recalling how he had broken through from rank ninety-one to his current rank ninety-five in just a little over a year, Dugu Bo couldn't help but feel a sense of realization in his heart.
His originally trembling heart stabilized quite a bit.
Finally, he considered that a Ten-thousand-year Soul Ring was something one could only hope for but not seek out.
For himself, for Little Yu, and for Dugu Yan.
Dugu Bo suddenly steeled his heart and spoke with a face full of resolve, as if facing death.
"Fine, then this old man will gamble with you. If we win, we get a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Bone and a Ten-thousand-year Soul Ring. If we lose, at worst, we'll just fully join Spirit Hall! Anyway, it shouldn't come to the point of perishing on the spot!!"
Sun Yu looked at Dugu Bo, who had already agreed, and felt a heavy weight lift from his heart.
Afterward, having persuaded Dugu Bo, Sun Yu took Ling Yuan back to the Supreme Pontiff Palace. To make the act look convincing, he intended to return Ling Yuan.
However, Bibi Dong did not accept; instead, she let Ling Yuan continue to follow Sun Yu.
As for the Spirit Bones, except for that fifty-thousand-year head Spirit Bone, Bibi Dong did not take back the other two.
Instead, she even exchanged a roughly thirty-thousand-year agility-attack system Spirit Bone for Sun Yu.
The matter regarding Xiao Wu had already been agreed upon, so Bibi Dong did not want to owe Sun Yu any favors.
And if that head Spirit Bone hadn't been suitable for her own disciple...
Bibi Dong wouldn't have even bothered to do him this favor.
Later, after all the transactions were completed, on the way back to the camp, Sun Yu tossed the Explosive Leg Bone to Ling Yuan.
"No one on our side is suitable for this one, so it's yours..."
Ling Yuan watched as Sun Yu casually tossed a Spirit Bone to her.
She was instantly dumbfounded.
A Spirit Bone—this was a Spirit Bone.
Since her Breakthrough to Titled Douluo, she didn't have a single Spirit Bone on her body!
Yet now, not long after following Sun Yu, she had actually obtained a Spirit Bone?!
At this moment, Ling Yuan was moved to the point of wanting to cry.
As for Ling Yuan...
Sun Yu's excuse was that she was a monitor placed by Bibi Dong's side.
Dugu Bo didn't think too much about it.
Because although he had already made his decision...
The pressure of facing Spirit Hall directly was still too great for him; perhaps he wouldn't be able to maintain a calm heart for a short while... Finally, after completely handling everything, the Royal Fight Team members successfully concluded their battle journey to Spirit City.
They prepared to return to receive the rewards and prizes from Emperor Xue Ye!
As for the Spirit Bones, besides the Explosive Spirit Bone given to Ling Yuan...
Sun Yu didn't give the remaining two agility-attack system Spirit Bones to anyone.
Because treasures can stir people's hearts.
Once given, what if they were hunted down and killed for their bones one day?!
Therefore, Sun Yu's decision was to keep the Spirit Bones himself and then pick a few Immortal Herbs for them to speed up their Cultivate speed.
Dugu Bo also agreed with this proposal.
After all, these people were the core members of their own side.
Their families were also the major nobles of Heaven Dou City.
So, having more contact with them was also excellent!
The higher their reputation in the Heaven Dou Empire in the future, the more things Spirit Hall would need to consider and be wary of if they wanted to move against them.
Soon, time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, a week had passed.
Since the main force had already escorted the other academies back to the Heaven Dou Empire in advance...
Those still remaining in Heaven Dou City, besides the Royal Fight Team itself, were only a mere thirty riders. Plus, with Dugu Bo as the final combat power, the remaining group added up to about forty-odd people, not even fifty.
Thus, the speed of Sun Yu and his group was several times faster than when they followed the main force.
The journey back to the Heaven Dou Empire, which originally would have taken more than half a month, was completed in just one week.
"Woo-woo-woo-woo!!!"
"Woo-woo-woo-woo-woo!"
"Bang!!"
"Bang!!!"
"Bang!!!"
At this moment, at the gates of Heaven Dou City, two teams of cavalry with cultivation levels at the Spirit Emperor rank were hoisting war drums in their hands.
Upon seeing the carriage traveling on the official road ahead, they immediately began to strike them one after another.
And while striking the drumheads...
Rounds of finely crafted fireworks also began to be released into the sky at this moment, then burst apart.
And they were none other than the welcoming party for the return of the champions of this All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition, the Tian Dou Royal Academy Team.
In fact, it wasn't surprising that Emperor Xue Ye would make such a big fuss.
After all, since the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Competition began...
Their Heaven Dou Empire had stubbornly failed to obtain a single victory.
If the victory had always been obtained by the Wuhundian Team, it would be one thing.
But unfortunately, the Star Luo Empire could win the championship once every ten or so years.
This truly made Emperor Xue Ye feel he had lost face many times.
But fortunately, all of that was in the past.
Now they had Sun Yu and this year's Tian Dou Royal Academy Team.
Their Heaven Dou Empire had finally, rarely, obtained a victory.
And what made Emperor Xue Ye feel most excited was...
Given Sun Yu's age, he could participate in at least two more All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Competitions.
And with Sun Yu's talent, ten years from now, Sun Yu would be at least a high-level Spirit Emperor, or perhaps even a Spirit Saint.
Therefore, Emperor Xue Ye already envisioned that the next two All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Competitions could be pocketed by their Heaven Dou Empire.
At the thought of this, Emperor Xue Ye was incredibly excited.
Afterward, amidst the lined-up welcome and celebrations of the audience and the residents of Heaven Dou City...
The members of the Royal Fight Team stood at the front of the carriage, enjoying the flowers and applause thrown from their surroundings.
Meanwhile, the carriage also slowly drove into the imperial palace.
"Clang!!!"
The situation of the personnel within Heaven Dou City was complex.
Naturally, it was impossible for everyone to be happy for the Royal Fight Team.
Some people even harbored deep hatred for the Royal Fight Team.
And the most obvious among them was none other than Tang San, who was currently recovering from his injuries in the Moon Pavilion.
Tang San looked at Sun Yu's appearance, enjoying being surrounded by thousands and encircled by flowers, and directly threw away the medicine bowl in his hand in anger.
The sound here also attracted Tang Yuehua, who hadn't gone far, to come in.
"Little San, your injuries haven't healed yet. Lie down quickly and stop paying attention to the things outside for now. Right now, recovering is the most important thing for you!"
Tang Yuehua helped Tang San lie back on the bed.
She spoke with a complex expression on her face.
