Chapter 364: Heading to Tianshui Academy, the Beautiful Dean Shui Linglong
On the other side, in the Heaven Dou Imperial City.
After the livestream ended, Lin Yu, keeping his promise, continued to spend time refining the upgraded pills in preparation for the Pill Conference three months later.
Three months later, the Pill Conference was successfully held and concluded smoothly.
After the Pill Conference, Lin Yu prepared to follow his previous plan and head to the extreme north. He intended to see if he could persuade the Snow Empress and Ice Empress and, through the Beast Taming Contract and corresponding Soul Guidance Device for converting soul beasts, turn the two empresses into soul spirits.
This would allow him to introduce a new power system to the world, one that could create harmony between human soul masters and soul beasts!
For this new power system, which was inspired by the Beast Taming system from his past life's novels, Lin Yu decided to name it the Soul Master system.
However, before heading to the extreme north, Lin Yu planned to visit Tianshui Academy.
Lin Yu did not intend to become the Soul Master of the Snow Empress and Ice Empress himself, as he had too many secrets, and it wasn't wise to let others know them.
Therefore, Lin Yu planned to visit Tianshui Academy, meet with the Dean, Shui Linglong, and see if he could convince her to take the two empresses as her soul beasts, allowing Shui Linglong to become their Soul Master.
…
"Is this Tianshui Academy?"
After leaving Dugu Mansion, Lin Yu traveled to Tianshui Advanced Soul Master Academy. He looked at the luxurious yet low-key gate in front of him, with the eight gilded characters carved above, and couldn't help but smile as he walked forward.
"Stop! Who are you? This is Tianshui Academy. Unauthorized persons, especially men, are not allowed to enter without an invitation!"
As Lin Yu reached the gates of Tianshui Academy, two women immediately stopped him.
However, since Lin Yu was dressed magnificently and had a handsome appearance, clearly someone of status, they did not reprimand him harshly. Instead, they spoke in a stern tone.
"Heh, two sisters, my name is Lin Yu, the Palace Master of the Immortal Palace. You should know who I am."
"I've already sent an invitation letter ahead. I'm here to see the Dean of your academy, and I hope you can pass on the message for me!"
Hearing this, the two women guarding the gate immediately recognized Lin Yu. They exchanged looks, clearly surprised.
A few days ago, the Immortal Palace had indeed sent an invitation, stating that the Palace Master, Lin Yu, had long admired the famous Tianshui Academy and was planning to visit.
However, as the exact time wasn't specified, the dean, Shui Linglong, couldn't arrange to have anyone welcome him. She had simply told them that if someone claiming to be Lin Yu arrived, they should be sure to treat him politely.
"Oh, it's the Palace Master Lin Yu visiting! My apologies! My apologies! The Dean is still in her office. Please wait outside for a moment while we inform her!"
Hearing Lin Yu's self-introduction, though they were polite, the two women were still cautious. They had Lin Yu wait outside while they went to notify Dean Shui Linglong.
"Then I'll trouble you," Lin Yu said with a smile and a slight bow as he waited.
One of the guards immediately turned and swiftly flew into the academy, disappearing in the distance at an unexpected speed for someone of her size.
Just a few minutes later, a middle-aged woman in a blue palace gown with long blue hair, exuding classical beauty, approached with a graceful smile. She was accompanied by the guard who had gone to notify her.
"Palace Master Lin Yu!"
Upon seeing Lin Yu, Shui Linglong, the Dean of Tianshui Academy, who had attended several Pill Conferences, instantly recognized him. She smiled and walked toward him.
"I'm not sure what brought the esteemed Palace Master to our Tianshui Academy, but we are truly humbled by the visit!"
"Heh, Dean Shui, you're too kind. Tianshui Academy is one of the famous five elemental academies in Heaven Dou Imperial City, and filled with beautiful women."
"I've always been curious about such a unique academy, so this visit is just to experience it, not due to any specific wind bringing me here."
Lin Yu replied half-jokingly, smiling.
Hearing Lin Yu's words, Shui Linglong's smile became even more radiant, though she didn't fully believe his words.
She was certain that Lin Yu hadn't come just to visit and admire Tianshui Academy's beautiful women.
But she wasn't in a hurry to figure out his true reason for visiting. Since they were still outside and there were others around, she couldn't ask him directly. Once they were inside her office, she would inquire further.
"Oh? Tianshui Academy is so attractive that it can draw Palace Master Lin Yu here. It's truly an honor for us!" Shui Linglong's mature and charming face lightened with a smile as she continued.
"Please, come in, Palace Master Lin Yu!"
With that, Shui Linglong gestured for Lin Yu to enter. Lin Yu followed her through the main gates into Tianshui Academy.
After passing down a long corridor, they reached the teaching buildings of Tianshui Academy, where Lin Yu saw many female students in blue Tianshui Academy uniforms playing and chatting along the side of the road.
Upon seeing a man walking alongside the dean, the Tianshui Academy students turned and gazed at them with curious eyes.
It was a man, and he was with the dean! But they hadn't heard of any event being held at the academy lately.
Although many high-ranking officials from the Heaven Dou Imperial City recognized Lin Yu due to the Pill Conferences, most of the regular students still didn't know him.
Lin Yu didn't pay much attention to the curious gazes of the students around him.
But as he walked past, he couldn't help but notice the many beautiful young women. The Tianshui Academy was truly a gathering of beautiful girls!
"Well, our Tianshui Academy's beauties are all seen by Palace Master Lin Yu now. So, Palace Master, can you tell us what brings you to our academy this time?"
"I heard that you've made deals with Blaze Academy and the Botanical Academy to offer discounts on pill purchases. Are you here to negotiate a similar deal with Tianshui Academy?"
As they walked along the academy's path toward the reception building, Shui Linglong smiled and half-jokingly teased Lin Yu while trying to probe for his true intentions.
Hearing Shui Linglong's question, Lin Yu couldn't help but smile.
