Chapter 89: Two-Year Promise!

"I'll go back with you."

Yu Xiao Gang's throat struggled and rolled a bit, but his words did not stop there; he continued:

"But we have to wait two years; after two years, I will go back with you."

"Two years?" Hearing Yu Xiao Gang's words, Yu Tianyun was briefly startled, then quickly recovered. Yu Xiao Gang was clearly still not giving up on Tang San, still hoping Tang San could vindicate him! Yu Tianyun couldn't help but show a playful smile and said, "Two years later will be the continent‑wide Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition; Uncle, you aren't planning to have Tang San and the others enter, are you?"

In Yu Tianyun's memory, the Shilake Seven Monsters had once eaten the Immortal Herb, all reaching the Soul Sect Realm, which only then allowed them to barely defeat the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall.

But this time is vastly different; without the Immortal Herb to boost cultivation, it is estimated that only Dai Mubai and Xiao Wu could reach level 40, and the chance of Tang San reaching level 40 is also extremely low; as for the others, there is basically no hope.

Moreover, Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong have already left with him, so they naturally will not become the so‑called Shilake Seven Monsters.

Only two or three Soul Sect members just over level 40; with that strength, how could they contend with the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation?

But Yu Tianyun had little patience left, unwilling to say more, waved a hand and said:

"Two years is two years; as long as you, Uncle, ultimately are willing to go back with me, that's enough."

Then Yu Tianyun turned his gaze to Fland and said:

"Dean Fland, I've been out for quite a while; it's time to return and devote myself to cultivation for a while. Moreover, Rong Rong is my fiancée, and she will leave with me, so I want Rong Rong to withdraw from the academy."

At this moment, Fland did not answer Yu Tianyun immediately, but stared at him with bright eyes and asked:

"Tianyun, what do you think of our academy?"

Yu Tianyun understood immediately upon hearing this; Fland wanted to keep him.

But he had already completed his mission and truly did not want to stay here another moment, so he stopped beating around the bush and said directly, "Dean Fland, I will not stay here; Rong Rong and I must return to cultivate as soon as possible!"

Fland still was unwilling to give up; he rubbed his hands, a sly smile appearing on his face, and said:

"Tianyun, where you train is not training? Our academy has so many excellent teachers who can give you some guidance, and there are peers you can spar and exchange with…"

"Dean Fland, it's not that I look down on your esteemed academy; it's simply that my strength is too great. Not to mention the students, even some teachers are not my match. Moreover, this place doesn't even have a Simulated Training Environment; staying here would only waste my time." Yu Tianyun still rejected outright, giving ample reasons.

His words left Fland speechless.

What is Shilake Xueyuan like? He knew very well himself that there could be no Simulated Training Field.

Moreover, Yu Tianyun's strength truly could not be matched by any of his students; even those Soul Emperor‑level teachers might not defeat Yu Tianyun. They have at most two ten‑thousand‑year Soul Rings, while Yu Tianyun possesses four! Though Yu Tianyun's words sounded extremely arrogant, Fland did not see them as bragging; helplessly, he cast a pleading glance at Yu Xiao Gang, hoping he could help retain him.

Yu Xiao Gang also wanted to know how his nephew managed to absorb four ten‑thousand‑year Soul Rings; he was intimately familiar with Yu Tianyun's family background.

His older brother and sister‑in‑law both wield the Blue Electric Tyrannosaur Weapon Soul, so Yu Tianyun could not have a Dual Birth Martial Soul unless he awakened two Blue Electric Tyrannosaur Weapon Souls, which is impossible. Both parents have the same martial soul, so offspring can only have a single martial soul, at most a variation, like himself; a Dual Birth Martial Soul could never arise.

Yu Xiao Gang said, "Tianyun, stay here and give it a try! Perhaps under my careful guidance, you could improve even faster!"

Yu Tianyun's impatience grew even more, and he retorted:

"Then Uncle, how do you plan to train me?"

Yu Xiao Gang naturally understood that Yu Tianyun was testing his ability, and his answer would decide Yu Tianyun's stay or departure.

However, he was confident in his Soul Master theory, believing no one could match him and convinced he could keep Yu Tianyun. A hint of arrogance flashed in his eyes as he said in a deep voice, "You are a Battle Soul Master, and your martial soul is the world's number one beast martial soul, the Blue Electric Tyrannosaur. Naturally, training should be through constant combat to improve. But combat requires a strong physique, so the first thing to train is physical fitness. I will arrange weighted running training for you without using soul power, and also prepare a medicinal bath to prevent damage to your body."

"Besides that, your soul skill should also follow the family tradition; I will meticulously devise combat methods for you, enhancing your fighting techniques, making you even stronger."

Yu Tianyun gave a light laugh, his face full of confidence, and calmly said:

"Uncle, you're joking; these are merely basic training for me. Before I was six, I already began forging my physique, and after awakening my martial soul at six, I have continuously undergone harsher training."

"Since childhood I have trained in Gravity Training, and my opponents have always been stronger than Soul King level."

"Now five‑times Gravity Training has no effect on me; Grandfather even told me that with my physique, my next Soul Ring could absorb a hundred‑thousand years! And after Grandfather's verification, my strength is comparable to a Soul Douluo!"

"That is why I have not given Tang San, who has a Dual Birth Martial Soul, any regard at all."

"I will give him time to chase, until he disappears from sight!"

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Yu Xiao Gang instantly became agitated again, his eyes wide open, his face full of disbelief.

"Believe it or not, time will prove everything; my most urgent matter now is to cultivate soul power."

Fland and Ning Rongrong, the two onlookers, were also half‑believing, half‑doubting. Yet when they thought of Yu Tianyun's shocking Soul Ring Ratio, they suddenly felt it wasn't that hard to accept.

It merely upended their cognition, making them deep down unwilling to believe.

A Soul King‑level being can absorb a hundred‑thousand‑year Soul Ring!

Who could believe that if spoken? Yet even Yu Tianyun's previous four ten‑thousand‑year Soul Rings were unbelievable, but he accomplished it.

Staring at Yu Tianyun's supremely confident face, they were reluctant to believe, yet subconsciously felt his words were true! "I truly cannot waste any more time; Shilake Xueyuan cannot help me. Rong Rong, let's go!"

Yu Tianyun said no more, grabbed Ning Rongrong's hand, and pushed the door open to leave.

"Hmm."

Ning Rongrong was still a bit stunned, instinctively answered with a nod, tightly grasping Yu Tianyun's large hand and followed out.

Fland watched their departing backs, saying no more. If Yu Tianyun truly stayed, it might indeed delay them, and he had no face left to try to retain him.

Yu Xiao Gang was extremely shaken today; his mind was in chaos, and even the joy of breaking through level 30 vanished without a trace.

His mood could not settle for a long time, and he didn't even notice when Yu Tianyun left.

As for exposing his strength to the three, Yu Tianyun wasn't too worried.

Ning Rongrong needs no mention; the two have long had deep exchanges, and she naturally would not expose his information.

Yu Xiao Gang is his own uncle; even if he were terrible, he wouldn't harm him.

And Fland is as close as a brother to Yu Xiao Gang; he even helped Yu Xiao Gang break his bottleneck, and they bear no grudges, so Fland knows the gravity of the matter and would not disclose his information.
