Chapter 47: One Word from Each Classic
An army marched along Heaven Dou's official road. Though the soldiers' faces were plain, their murderous aura and bloodthirstiness marked them as battle-hardened veterans!
Their eyes held not only vigilance for their surroundings but also barely contained excitement!
Thinking of Emperor Xue Ye personally rewarding and promoting them upon returning to Heaven Dou City, they wished they could sprout wings and fly back!
Yet, unlike the soldiers' thrill, Prince Xue Xing, guarded at the center, was far from happy, his mood grim.
In his luxurious carriage, he picked up a message from Heaven Dou, veins throbbing on his forehead.
He couldn't fathom what possessed his brother to do something so foolish!
Setting down the letter, he lifted the carriage curtain, glancing at Dugu Bo's carriage behind, sighed, and ducked back inside.
…
"Fighter?"
Qian Renxue's mind sank inward, gazing at the condensed Dou Qi vortex, excitement flashing across her face!
Though small, she felt the Dou Qi in her body was far stronger than before—over ten times!
Such a leap amazed her!
At the Fighter Realm, she could likely rival a Soul Venerable!
Recalling the Dou Qi realms her teacher described, she marveled.
This was just the first realm!
No wonder her teacher dismissed the soul master system.
"Feeling the power of Dou Qi, aren't you?" Su Yu asked, smiling.
"Yeah!" She nodded eagerly.
The Dou Qi stage built foundations, stronger than soul masters but hard to showcase.
After breaking into the Fighter Realm, Dou Qi's power began to shine.
Excited, she asked, "Teacher, you said you'd teach me a technique after reaching Fighter level, that technique…"
"Hey! So eager!" Su Yu smiled, shaking his head.
"It's been ready, tailored for you! It boosts both Dou Qi and soul power!"
A golden scroll appeared before her.
Seeing her curiosity, he continued, "Pick it up, wrap it with mental power, and you'll master it."
She grabbed the scroll, asking, "Teacher, why not pass it directly? Why a scroll?"
He'd previously transmitted Dou Qi secrets via soul power, never using scrolls!
Su Yu snorted. "Ritual! Your main cultivation technique deserves ceremony!"
"Alright!"
She nodded, accepting his words.
Placing the scroll between her brows, a flood of knowledge surged into her mind!
With prior experience, she only frowned briefly before recovering.
"Low-level Earth-grade technique?"
Noticing the technique's level, she felt a pang of disappointment.
She'd hoped for a Heaven-grade technique, high or low.
But Earth-grade, and low at that?
Though high for most, it felt lackluster for a Dou Di's disciple.
A bit disappointing.
Su Yu, reading her expression, said calmly:
"What, expecting a Heaven-grade technique?"
"Yes!" she admitted honestly.
"Nonsense!" His mouth twitched. "Forgot what I said? Cultivation must be gradual!"
"As a mere Fighter, a Heaven-grade technique, even Earth-grade, is like a small horse pulling a big cart! Incredibly hard!"
"If I hadn't tailored this for you, you couldn't handle High Mysterious-grade, let alone Earth-grade!"
Feeling aggrieved, she said, "But, Teacher, you said this is my future technique."
"I thought, as your disciple, I'd get a Heaven-grade one…"
"…"
Seeing her expression, Su Yu fell silent.
Damn! Such confidence in him? So touching!
"Alright, no secrets. This is your future technique, but…"
His tone softened. "Its true level isn't low Earth-grade, but Heaven-grade!"
"To aid your practice, I split it into three parts. As you reach the right realms, the rest will unlock."
"Practicing too high a technique early does more harm than good!"
Creating it, Su Yu avoided gimmicks like the Burning Technique's need to consume items to advance.
Why? Simple. Douluo Continent lacked such treasures.
The Burning Technique was high Heaven-grade at best. Why not aim higher directly?
Xiao Yan's prowess wasn't just the Burning Technique but the person wielding it!
A mere Dou Di's creation, turned by Xiao Yan into Emperor Yan, slaying Heavenly Supremes effortlessly.
Now that's the Ganges!
Hearing his explanation, her grievance vanished, replaced by a bright smile.
"Teacher, you're so kind! Don't worry, Xiaoxue will unlock the rest soon!"
Su Yu sighed at her quick mood shift. "The Heaven Dou royal family sure knows how to influence people!"
"It's your teaching!" she retorted. Not Heaven Dou's credit—she was with her teacher daily!
He shook his head helplessly at her radiant smile.
"I haven't named this technique. You choose."
"Yuxue Jue?" She thought for two and a half minutes.
"Huh? Which Yu?" He sensed something off.
"Your Yu!" she answered cheerfully, hiding nothing!
"…"
Su Yu wanted to crack open her head to see her thoughts.
A technique named after them both… Damn!
"Whatever you want!"
He said, logging off instantly!
He'd told her to name it—could he take it back?
"Hehe!"
She smiled smugly.
"Yuxue Jue!"
