Yuanen Zhentian stood up and looked toward Yuanen Yehui. “Yuanen, the tragedy of the past should never repeat itself. Come back to visit your father. You’re his only hope. Had it not been because of you, I’m afraid he would have already…”

Yuanen Yehui’s body trembled. Her pearly whites bit her lower lip as she nodded slowly. “I’ll return with you.”

Yuanen Zhentian heaved a long sigh before he floated away.

When Tang Wulin returned to Lan Fozi and Xie Xie, he could see that Yuanen Yehui’s eyes were red from crying. Xie Xie hastily dashed forward to grab her hands.

“It’s fine. You’re going to be fine. I’ll be with you no matter what happens.”

Yuanen Yehui nodded softly.

Tang Wulin said, “Xie Xie is right. We’re a team. We’ll face any challenges together, no matter what happens. Don’t worry too much over this. We’ll help you overcome the matter when the Joust For A Spouse Festival has ended.”

Meanwhile, the Titan Giant Ape Clan had already sent over the contact information to them. It was delivered by Yuanen Yehui’s second uncle.

He appeared to have calmed down at present. He passed Yuanen Yehui a slip of paper with the contact details.

Yuanen Yehui raised her head and looked at him. She thought about her beautiful second aunt who had held her when she was young. She was overcome with emotions and her eyes began turning red.

“I suppose your grandfather told you about it?” asked her second uncle.

Yuanen Yehui nodded.

“I’ve changed my name to Yuanen Tianshang since that very day.” Her second uncle turned around to leave having uttered those words. His silhouette which was emaciated appeared desolate.

The Amorous Douluo spoke in a deep voice, “Alright. All of you should go back to rest. Don’t worry too much over this. Since the Atlas Douluo had said that Yuanen’s martial soul could be sealed as long as her cultivation base remained below the nine-ring rank, it shouldn’t be an issue. At most, only Yuanen’s fighting capacity would be affected. We’ll certainly figure out an appropriate way to handle this problem.”

Xie Xie accompanied the sad Yuanen Yehui as they left. It was already midnight by the time the Amorous Douluo sent Tang Wulin back to the Blacksmith’s Association.

Tang Wulin suddenly realized two things on his mind when he lay on the bed to relax.

His first thought was he was still very hungry because he had skipped dinner.

The second thought he had was how he could recover completely by tomorrow since he was injured rather severely! Tomorrow would be the first round of the round-robin match in which he was taking part in the Joust For A Spouse Festival.

Lan Fozi looked up into the night sky with an absentminded gaze. All that happened today had a huge impact on her.

At present, she was seated on the rooftop of the hotel where she was staying. The three scenes where Tang Wulin withstood Yuanen Zhentian’s three consecutive attacks appeared non-stop in her mind.

It was precisely due to her spiritual power which had achieved the Spirit Domain realm that allowed her to sense the dreadful terror of Yuanen Zhentian’s attacks. Had she be in Tang Wulin’s place, she would have turned into ashes after the third attack.

Her ashes would have been strewn all over. In any case, she would not have survived the ordeal.

At the thought of this, the corners of her lips curved into a bitter smile.

He was so much more powerful than she had imagined. She was still hoping that she would be grouped with him. If she were in the same group as him, she might not even stand a chance to win.

A soul master’s ability should not just be described as pure energy. One’s cultivation base remained the most important when one had achieved a certain rank.

Were his skills weaker than hers for sure? That crude-looking but ingenious punch of his managed to fend off the Mainstay’s pointing finger. He also dabbled in the powers of the law.

Lan Fozi did not believe that any of her peers could be more outstanding than herself. At present, she had to believe the results she had just witnessed.

‘I need to work harder too! I can’t be arrogant and contented anymore. Mother, I will work hard and I won’t disappoint you.”

The Mingdu Coliseum had been bustling since early in the morning. The third group of the round-robin match would commence today. There were two well-known powerhouses competing in today’s match. All the admission tickets for today’s match were sold out. People from all walks of life who came to watch the battle had begun to enter the coliseum through the various avenues.

The Spirit Pagoda’s Pagoda Master Qiangu Dongfeng had already arrived. He came to watch since Qiangu Zhangting would be competing in today’s match. This was his second visit to the Joust For A Spouse Festival since the festival began. His appearance today was meant to boost the popularity of the competition.

The Ten Thousand Beast Platform did well for the past two days. Since it was intentional, any soul master who entered the platform would receive good gains. Such gains could not be acquired via ordinary cultivation or other means. It was meant to enhance the success trend of the higher-ranked soul masters.

The Joust For A Spouse Festival had attracted more higher-ranked soul masters. The winners were awarded with expensive rewards. Nonetheless, the organization made enough profits from the Ten Thousand Beast Platform to cover the costs of the event many times over. Undoubtedly, the event was a tremendous success.

The media took notice of it and began coverage of the event. However, the elevating ability was far more important for the higher-ranked soul masters. Although they were naturally aware that partaking in the Ten Thousand Beast Platform would benefit the Spirit Pagoda more than themselves, they had no choice but to do so. If they did not take part while the higher-ranked soul masters did, then the disparity between them would be even greater. How could they stand at the pinnacle of the soul masters’ world then?

Currently, the crowd of higher-ranked soul masters in Mingdu City would inquire one another frequently, “Have you entered the Ten Thousand Beast Platform?”

Such inquiries and the showboating of their skills after gaining some elevation promoted the popularity of the Ten Thousand Beast Platform further.

Many soul masters were working hard to earn more money at present. Those who had yet to enter the platform were accumulating their savings so they could enter. Also, there were those who wished to enter again so they could receive even more gains.

Qiangu Dongfeng did not care much about the affairs of Shrek Academy anymore. News coverage of Shrek Academy’s reconstruction had dropped after the Joust For A Spouse Festival began. He was well aware that Shrek Academy took a long time to achieve its fame of being the number one academy on the continent after countless generations of hard work.

Nonetheless, the reconstruction of Shrek Academy at present was not as difficult as its initial construction. In any case, it would require a long process to regain its former glory. It would only be possible after the accumulation of a few generations at the very least.

On the other hand, the Spirit Pagoda’s influence was on the rise now. Qiangu Dongfeng had begun preparing for something else. He would be announcing that the Spirit Pagoda would be establishing their own advanced soul masters’ academy after the Joust For A Spouse Festival. Its construction would be next to the Spirit Pagoda’s headquarters, which made it adjacent to Shrek Academy. They would be the rivals of Shrek.

With their abundant resources, the Spirit Pagoda’s higher-ranked soul masters’ academy could organize many events similar to the Joust For A Spouse Festival. It would generate a lot of interest for the Spirit Pagoda. If the Spirit Pagoda were to establish the soul masters’ academy and offer rewards such as low-cost spirit souls, free entry passes to the Ten Thousand Beast Platform and the spirit ascension platform, it would attract a large number of outstanding young talents to join them.

Shrek Academy was no longer the number one academy on the continent as it was in the past. Without its reputation of being number one on the continent, how could Shrek Academy possibly compete against the Spirit Pagoda?

The Spirit Pagoda could not suppress Shrek Academy by the look of things. In reality, the most crucial part of an academy was its renewable sources. Without renewable sources, what could they do even if they had excellent teaching skills? The Spirit Pagoda’s advanced soul masters’ academy would be the death of Shrek Academy.

Qiangu Dongfeng came up with this coordinated strategy after Qiangu Zhangting told him about his idea of the Joust For A Spouse Festival the other day.

When the Joust For A Spouse Festival ended, the Spirit Pagoda announced the establishment of an advanced soul masters’ academy which would be carried out on a grand scale. They would begin recruiting students earlier than Shrek Academy to see how Shrek Academy would compete against them.

At the thought of this, Qiangu Dongfeng’s face cracked into a faint genial smile. At the same time, he felt even more joyous in his heart. The fear aroused earlier by the reconstruction of Shrek Academy was swept into nothingness.

“Pagoda master, you seem to be in a very good mood today!” asked Gu Yuena as she looked at the smiling Qiangu Dongfeng.

Qiangu Dongfeng burst out laughing. “It’s really going well. The festival is a success. There’s you and Zhangting as well, so how can I not feel happy? I have worthy successors now! Everything is going well with the Ten Thousand Beast Platform, right?”

It was not his first time asking Gu Yuena this question.

Gu Yuena nodded. “Everything’s fine. I’ve made the proper arrangements. Don’t worry.”

Qiangu Dongfeng said, “Although you’re young, you’ve always been good at managing. I’m at ease, of course. I heard that the Yu Longyue boy from Zhangting’s group has rather impressive abilities. What do you think of him as compared to Zhangting?”

Gu Yuena considered for a while and said, “It’s difficult to tell. I’ve yet to see Yu Longyue’s overall ability at present, so it’s difficult for me to make a judgement. However, I reminded Zhangting again and again not to be reckless in this match.”
