Two days later, Ye Liangchen had finished copying the boxing manual and the first two chapters of the Hun Yuan Art. He also obtained two Ten-Thousand Year Spirit Bones from Shui Lanxin, preparing to give them to Dugu Bo and Ye Suling.
Construction had already begun on the periphery of Tenglong Pavilion. The Tianshui City Lord hired a large number of workers, directly building a road from the south of Tianshui Academy, a grand sight to behold.
This morning, Ye Liangchen arrived at Mingyue Mountain Villa and saw Dugu Bo and Ye Suling discussing something not far from the villa.
"Xiao Chen, you're here."
When the two saw Xiao Jiahuo arrive, they immediately greeted him with smiles.
"Senior Dugu, Aunt Ye, are you living well here?" Ye Liangchen also greeted the two.
"Very well. This old man now arranges various tasks with the City Lord every day, and every day is very fulfilling."
Dugu Bo said with a smile. In the past, when he served as a Heaven Dou Enshrined, although it was easy, he was often plagued by toxins, which made him very miserable. Although he was a bit busy now, he was building his own career, which was incredibly satisfying.
"Xiao Chen, we are also very well here. We don't have to worry about anything every day. It's much more comfortable than Heaven Dou City."
Ye Suling loved her current life. In Heaven Dou City, she was very afraid of those large families. Although she was a Spirit Douluo, she was only a healing-type Spirit Douluo with no self-preservation ability. To protect her small family, she could only maneuver among various forces.
"That's good."
"Senior Dugu, Aunt Ye, this is the boxing manual I copied and a new meditation cultivation method. From now on, you and Aunt Ye will cultivate these methods together. They will be very helpful for improving your strength."
"Oh, and here are two Ten-Thousand Year Spirit Bones for you. Yan Jie and Ling Jie also received a 50,000-year Spirit Bone. This is what I promised you before."
"Aunt Ye, this 40,000-year Overlord Eagle Torso Bone should give you a flying skill. This way, you will have the ability to protect yourself."
Ye Liangchen directly gave the Spirit Bones and cultivation methods to the two. After all, his Tenglong Pavilion would rely on them to manage it in the future, and as the boss, he couldn't be too stingy.
"Xiao Chen, you kid are truly a rich man, giving away Ten-Thousand Year Spirit Bones so casually." Dugu Bo looked at the right leg Spirit Bone in his hand, which was at least 50,000 years old.
"Xiao Chen, such precious Spirit Bones, don't you need them yourself?"
Ye Suling was extremely shocked at this moment. This kid actually gave her such a big gift—a 40,000-year Overlord Eagle Torso Spirit Bone. If this were to be auctioned, it would probably fetch tens of millions of gold coins.
"Senior Dugu, Aunt Ye, hurry up and absorb them! I don't lack Spirit Bones. If there's a chance in the future, I'll get more for you."
Ye Liangchen had no use for these Ten-Thousand Year Spirit Bones now. Besides auctioning them, he would just give them away.
"Then Auntie thanks you."
Ye Suling was overjoyed. With the Spirit Bone, her strength would increase, and she would also gain self-preservation ability. It was simply too good.
"Xiao Chen, this old man won't be polite. How about you consider my Yan Yan? If you two get together, this old man can be your grandfather, hahaha..."
Dugu Bo chuckled as he put away the Spirit Bone, then tried to promote his granddaughter to Ye Liangchen.
"Senior Dugu, if Yan Jie heard you say that, she would definitely pull out your beard."
Ye Liangchen found it amusing how this old man kept trying to marry off his granddaughter.
"Senior Dugu, there's a long way to go, and children have their own blessings. Let the children handle their own affairs! Let's not worry about it."
Ye Suling smiled from the side. She knew that the Shui Lanxin Sisters had already arranged their daughter for Xiao Jiahuo. It wasn't good to let Ye Lingling and Xiao Jiahuo develop now. Anyway, there would be opportunities in the future; these things couldn't be rushed.
"Oh, right, Senior Dugu, you lived in Sunset Forest for many years. Tell me about the powerful Spirit Beasts there. I'm preparing to find an 8,000-year-old Ghost Tiger or Splitting Sky Tiger or similar Spirit Beast for Zhu Zhuqing as her fourth spirit ring."
Ye Liangchen mainly wanted to inquire about the activity areas of those powerful Spirit Beasts, so he wouldn't have to search slowly when he got there.
"Oh! It seems that Star Luo Empire girl is not simple either! Daring to go for an 8,000-year spirit ring for her fourth one. It seems you must have helped that girl's Spirit evolve."
"Senior Dugu, I think it's not just that girl; the Spirits of those several girls should have all evolved. The Shui Lanxin Sisters are preparing to build a super combat team to let those girls participate in the next Soul Master Competition."
"Dean Shui is making a grand gesture! This way, these girls are very likely to win the championship."
"Senior Dugu, with Xiao Chen here, winning the championship is a sure thing."
"Hehe...! That's right. Once this Xiao Jiahuo makes a move, there's no team that can resist."
Dugu Bo and Ye Suling, unknowingly, had already felt the power of Tianshui Academy.
"Senior Dugu, Aunt Ye, the next Soul Master Competition is still about three years away! It's too early to talk about these things now."
Ye Liangchen said modestly. However, for Tianshui Academy, the Soul Master Competition was a stage to display their strength. For him, it was just doing some things and controlling the future pattern of the continent.
"Xiao Chen, there are many powerful Spirit Beasts in Sunset Forest. I'll tell you about a few areas you should pay attention to. Centered around this old man's medicinal garden, 100 li to the east..."
Dugu Bo explained to Ye Liangchen, introducing the activity areas and types of some powerful Spirit Beasts.
"Xiao Chen, if you don't want to take the Heaven Dou City route, you can pass through Shenfeng City and Chihuo City, then travel another five or six hundred kilometers to reach the western part of Sunset Forest."
"Do you want this old man to accompany you on the trip?"
Recalling what happened in Heaven Dou City a few days ago, Dugu Bo offered Ye Liangchen another route, bypassing Heaven Dou City to avoid being targeted by the imperial family.
"Thank you, Senior Dugu. We can handle it ourselves. No need to trouble you."
"That's right. You, Xiao Jiahuo, can come and go freely in Sunset Forest by yourself. I suppose nothing can stump you."
"Senior Dugu, Aunt Ye, then I'll take my leave now."
After bidding farewell to the two, Ye Liangchen returned to Tianshui Academy.
He also knew about Shenfeng City and Chihuo City that Dugu Bo mentioned. Those were the two element cities where Shenfeng Academy and Blazing Academy were located. Huo Wu, Huo Wushuang, and Feng Xiaotian were all from these two major element cities.
Time flew by, and it was time to go out again. This morning, Ye Liangchen packed his clothes. As soon as he stepped out of his room, Blue Silver Emperor directly left the flowerpot and "whoosh" burrowed into Ye Liangchen's clothes.
"Xiao Chen, I'll go with you. With me around, you'll be safer."
Blue Silver Emperor, now Ye Liangchen's pet, naturally had to follow its master. Moreover, by staying with this guy, it could cultivate faster.
"Alright, then let's go together."
Ye Liangchen was happy for Blue Silver Emperor to accompany him into Sunset Forest. After all, with it around, it was like having an alarm system.
When he arrived downstairs, he found that Zhuqing had already arrived at the villa and was making breakfast with Shui Bing'er. This girl was very excited about this trip.
As for Shui Yue'er, she had already set off yesterday with the main force of the Tianshui Girl Group. Shui Lanxin even called upon Ye Suling, this super healer, as they needed to acquire the ninth spirit ring for two Titled Douluo, and having a super support was safer.
"Chen Ge, I'll have to trouble you again." Seeing Ye Liangchen come downstairs, Zhuqing greeted him.
"Zhuqing, we're all family, so don't say such polite words. Let's eat breakfast first, then depart. Anyway, we have plenty of time."
"Xiao Chen, eat quickly."
Shui Bing'er set out breakfast and motioned for them to eat.
"Bing'er Jie, have you been to Chihuo City and Shenfeng City?" Ye Liangchen asked Shui Bing'er.
"I haven't been. Chihuo City, Shenfeng City, and Tianshui City are the three major element cities. There are also two other element cities, Thunder City and Elephant Armor City, located in the eastern and southern parts of Heaven Dou City, respectively. All five of our major element cities have an academy, also known as the Heaven Dou Five Element Academies..."
Shui Bing'er ate while introducing some information about the Five Element Academies to the two. When she mentioned that the students of the Elephant Armored Academy were all strong men starting at around 300 catties, Zhuqing was stunned.
"Bing'er Jie, strong men weighing three to four hundred catties, how tall and big would that be?"
Zhuqing couldn't imagine it. The scene of a 400-catty strong man walking over would be truly shocking.
Shui Bing'er smiled: "Anyway, we normal people are like little children in front of those from Elephant Armor Academy."
"Bing'er Jie, I heard that the inherited Spirit of the Elephant Armored Academy is the Diamond Mammoth, and they are all tall and strong. So, are the women in their Sect also three to four hundred catties?"
Ye Liangchen recalled those two to three meter tall strong men from the Elephant Armored Academy, all of them 'meat mountains'. If a woman possessed the Diamond Mammoth Spirit, she would probably be like a super King Kong Barbie. Just thinking about it was terrifying.
"Pfft...! Hahahaha...!"
Shui Bing'er and Zhuqing burst out laughing upon hearing this, spitting rice grains all over Ye Liangchen's face, completely bewildering him.
"Sorry! Xiao Chen Didi, hahahaha...!"
"Chen Ge, I usually don't laugh, but this time I really couldn't hold it in, hahahaha...!"
The two girls wiped the rice grains from Ye Liangchen's face while laughing without regard for their image.
"I say, two beauties, you really have no image right now!"
Ye Liangchen didn't expect that just one sentence would make the two girls spray him in the face.
"Xiao Chen Didi, what image are you talking about?"
After wiping the rice grains from Ye Liangchen's face, Shui Bing'er saw that his jacket was dirty, so she directly took it off and washed it.
"Chen Ge, I'm sorry."
Zhuqing felt a little embarrassed thinking about spraying the other person's face earlier.
"Zhuqing, don't worry about it."
Ye Liangchen went into the bathroom, washed his face, and then took out another jacket from his spirit tool to put on.
"Xiao Chen, women with the Diamond Mammoth Spirit are not three or four hundred catties, nor are they two or three meters tall. However, those women are very fat, at least around 180 catties."
"But there are very few women with the Diamond Mammoth Spirit. This Spirit is mostly inherited by men in the Elephant Armored Academy."
At this moment, Blue Silver Emperor's voice sounded in Ye Liangchen's mind, introducing him to some information about the Elephant Armored Academy. She also found it amusing that Xiao Jiahuo mentioned women weighing three or four hundred catties.
"So that's how it is! I thought those women also weighed 300 catties!"
Ye Liangchen pictured the scene in his mind: a super King Kong Barbie with the Diamond Mammoth Spirit walking towards him. How shocking that scene would be! The ground would probably shake.
