Chapter 365: Does Lin Yu Like Bing'er?
"Dean Linglong, you're thinking too small!"
In response to Shui Linglong's probing, Lin Yu didn't directly answer but instead smiled mysteriously.
"To be honest with you, Dean, I've come here on behalf of the Immortal Palace. What I want to discuss with your academy is far more important and has a much greater impact than the deals we made with Blaze Academy and Botanical Academy."
"As long as you agree, your academy will easily produce a Title Douluo!"
"Produce a Title Douluo easily?"
Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, Shui Linglong was momentarily stunned, full of doubt.
What exactly did Lin Yu want to discuss with Tianshui Academy? To say that producing a Title Douluo would be easy…
Was he trying to recruit one of our Tianshui Academy students to join the Immortal Palace?
Curious, Shui Linglong maintained her composure, smiling faintly, trying to subtly probe Lin Yu's true intentions.
But this time, Lin Yu intentionally kept things mysterious, flashing a cryptic smile and saying nothing more.
This made Shui Linglong feel somewhat embarrassed.
This troublesome young man, he already hinted at it and yet still keeps things secret. How infuriating!
But despite feeling embarrassed, Shui Linglong, maintaining her poised and graceful demeanor as a middle-aged beauty, pretended to be indifferent and changed the subject to talk about other matters.
Eventually, the two of them arrived at the reception building and entered a meeting room.
"Well, Palace Master Lin Yu, now can you finally tell me what exactly you want to discuss with us?"
Once they entered the meeting room and Shui Linglong had tea prepared for them, she watched as Lin Yu calmly sipped his tea and asked, holding back her inner irritation while smiling.
"Hmm, now's fine."
After sipping his tea, Lin Yu smiled and slowly put his cup down, then, looking at the poised and elegant Shui Linglong, he spoke softly.
"Actually, I came here to find someone from your Tianshui Academy. As for the purpose... I want to offer one of your female students an incredible opportunity!"
"An incredible opportunity?"
Hearing this, Shui Linglong was momentarily taken aback, feeling unsure.
Did Lin Yu set his sights on one of Tianshui Academy's students and want to take her as his disciple?
Since Lin Yu had received countless rewards from the livestream, it was widely known that anyone who could learn something from him would greatly benefit.
If someone received Lin Yu's personal guidance, they might even have a chance at breaking through to Title Douluo.
Being taken as Lin Yu's disciple, receiving his guidance, and getting unlimited medicinal pills to assist with cultivation—Shui Linglong thought that would indeed be an incredible opportunity.
Lin Yu: "..."
Lin Yu was somewhat speechless at Shui Linglong's misunderstanding.
"Sorry, Dean Shui, I'm not currently looking to take a disciple. But if the girl I'm looking for here at Tianshui Academy agrees to what I'm going to propose to her..."
"I can take her into our Immortal Palace, and many of the techniques and martial arts rewards I've received in the livestream will be passed on to Immortal Palace disciples. So whether she becomes my disciple or not, it doesn't really matter."
Not taking her as a disciple?
Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, Shui Linglong was both surprised and increasingly puzzled.
So, Lin Yu wasn't planning on taking one of their female students as a disciple?
Then what was he planning with the girl from Tianshui Academy? Could it be that he liked one of their girls and was here to confess?
But if that were the case, it would still be quite the opportunity!
Shui Linglong couldn't help but start wondering.
"Heh, I've been presumptuous. But may I ask, Palace Master Lin Yu, which girl from our Tianshui Academy are you looking for?"
"If you tell me now, I can have someone fetch her for you. Then we can discuss what you want with her, and she should be able to join us after the discussion."
Taking a deep breath, Shui Linglong smiled elegantly at Lin Yu.
"Well, then I'll say it. I'm looking for Miss Shui Bing'er from your academy."
Upon hearing Shui Linglong's words, Lin Yu didn't hide it, simply smiling and saying, "Bing'er, yes."
Bing'er?
Upon hearing this, Shui Linglong's heart skipped a beat, but she wasn't too surprised.
After all, whether Lin Yu wanted to take a disciple or confess, the most likely candidate was always their academy's outstanding Shui Bing'er.
She was the most beautiful and talented girl at Tianshui Academy!
"Heh, my apologies, Palace Master Lin Yu, please wait here for a moment."
After learning that Lin Yu was looking for Shui Bing'er, Shui Linglong smiled apologetically at Lin Yu and then left the meeting room. She sent someone to find Shui Bing'er and then returned to her seat.
"I've already asked someone to find Bing'er. Please feel free to explain to me what you want with her, and what you want her to agree to. After that, she'll be here."
After returning to her seat in the meeting room, Shui Linglong gave Lin Yu a gentle smile.
"Of course!"
Lin Yu smiled and then sat up straight, clearing his throat before speaking in a low voice.
"Actually, the main reason I'm looking for Miss Shui Bing'er from your academy is due to two random rewards I received. One is a Beast Contract, and the other is a Soul Spirit Transformation Device."
"These two things, when combined, can create a new system, more powerful and effective than the Soul Spirit system we saw in the livestream before. I call it the Soul Master system..."
"The Soul Master system?!"
Upon hearing Lin Yu's words, Shui Linglong was startled and couldn't help but exclaim.
Because the birth of the Soul Spirit system was shown in the livestream during the period of the Supreme Tangmen, and Shui Linglong knew that the Soul Spirit system was a much stronger system that evolved from the Soul Master system.
And now Lin Yu claimed he had received two rewards that could create a system even more powerful than the Soul Spirit system previously shown.
This naturally shocked Shui Linglong.
Her mind immediately recalled the birth of the Soul Spirit system in the livestream, and with the Snow Empress being the first soul spirit, Shui Linglong suddenly had an idea.
Could it be that Lin Yu wants to take Bing'er to the extreme north to subdue the Snow Empress and make her Bing'er's soul spirit, turning Bing'er into the first Soul Master of this new system?
But the Snow Empress was so powerful in the livestream... Why wouldn't Lin Yu make the Snow Empress his soul spirit, but instead want Bing'er to be her Soul Master?
With this thought, Shui Linglong furrowed her brows, deeply puzzled, and couldn't understand Lin Yu's reasoning.
Could it be that Lin Yu has feelings for Bing'er?
Suddenly, a light bulb went off in Shui Linglong's mind, and her expression changed as she pondered this new possibility.
