Chapter 100: Reunion with Everyone
To be honest, Zuo Jianping had been worried sick about Yu Tianlin.
They had finally rescued Yu Tianlin from the Breaking Clan, yet only a few days after returning to the Heaven Dou Empire, Yu Tianlin disappeared again.
He vanished together with Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan.
Although every piece of information Zuo Jianping gathered pointed to Dugu Bo taking the two of them out to cultivate, Zuo Jianping still could not stop his mind from running wild. What if Dugu Bo had killed Yu Tianlin, then fled with his granddaughter?
As the situation started to spiral, Zuo Jianping was already preparing to report everything back to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Fortunately, around that time, Dugu Yan returned to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Since Dugu Yan had returned, it meant Dugu Bo had not killed Yu Tianlin. Yu Tianlin should be safe.
Zuo Jianping finally relaxed, but even when he asked about Yu Tianlin's whereabouts, Dugu Yan refused to say anything real. She only told him that Tianlin was cultivating with her grandfather and ordered him not to worry.
Zuo Jianping could not do anything to Dugu Yan, so he could only wait.
Every day, he followed Dugu Yan around, waiting for the moment Dugu Bo would bring Yu Tianlin back.
Unexpectedly, that wait lasted half a year.
"Uncle Zuo, it's you." When Yu Tianlin saw him, he quickly spoke. "I've been cultivating with Senior Dugu for the past 6 months. I'm sorry to make you worry."
"It's good that Young Master Tianlin is fine."
Perhaps because Dugu Bo was nearby, Zuo Jianping did not say much. After that simple sentence, his figure flickered and turned into a streak of black light, disappearing in an instant.
In the past, Yu Tianlin would have been completely unable to sense Zuo Jianping's movements. But now, with his cultivation soaring and his mental strength rising dramatically, he could faintly catch Zuo Jianping's hidden aura nearby.
If Yu Tianlin could sense it, then Dugu Bo could sense it as well. He simply did not care. He led Yu Tianlin into the Great Spirit Arena and quickly arrived at the audience seats.
"Teamwork decides victory, Royal Fighting Team wins!"
The moment Yu Tianlin arrived, he heard the referee's verdict.
Good, it's already over. No need to sit here forever.
As the referee announced the result, the audience erupted.
"The Royal Fighting Team won again!"
"Haha, I knew it. I bet on them. No upset was possible!"
"Damn it, why did I bet on the underdog? The odds on the Royal Fighting Team were low, but it was guaranteed money!"
"That Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Spirit Master is too fierce. And the poison of that Serpent Spirit Master is terrifying!"
After the fight ended, the Royal Fighting Team did not do anything extreme. They simply flew arrogantly around the arena a few times, basking in the cheers, then left together through the passage at the entrance.
Qin Ming was waiting there. When everyone returned, he immediately commented on tonight's Spirit Battle.
"Just because you win most team battles doesn't mean your cooperation is perfect."
"Let's start with Tianheng. You always rely on the power of your Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul to charge forward alone and go deep into enemy territory. That's not good. If an opponent uses that to bait you into a trap, you'll be in real danger. You must be careful."
"Yes, Teacher Qin."
Yu Tianheng answered, yet from his expression, it was obvious he did not take those words seriously.
Ever since reaching level 30 and gaining dragon transformation, Yu Tianheng had become obsessed with the power of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul. His confidence in his offense had swollen to the point of arrogance.
"And Yan, you're not any better." After finishing with Tianheng, Qin Ming looked at Dugu Yan. "Your poison is extremely lethal. I've told you not to go all out in arena matches, but that's not an excuse to slack off."
"Throughout the entire battle, you were absent minded. Your attitude was unacceptable. It was like you were treating your opponents as chickens and dogs."
"You must understand something. You are the only control type Spirit Master on the Royal Fighting Team. You are the soul of the team, the one who controls the overall situation. You must concentrate at all times."
"Understood."
Dugu Yan nodded, though it was unclear whether she truly listened.
"Yu Feng as well." Qin Ming continued without pause. "You're still as frivolous as ever. It's the same old problem. I tell you every time, but you never change."
Yu Feng pressed his lips together and said nothing, letting Qin Ming criticize him.
"As for Osler, your performance has been consistent and acceptable."
"The Shi brothers stayed calm, and you did very well throughout."
"Lingling, your treatment was always timely, and your control was perfect. Very good."
After reviewing everyone, Qin Ming concluded, "Overall, your teamwork still has weaknesses. The main problems are Tianheng, Yan, and Yufeng. You must correct them."
"He's right."
A voice suddenly came from the shadows. Dugu Bo stepped forward and spoke calmly.
"That one who can fly is just a personality issue. But the kid from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and Yan Yan, are simply arrogant."
Yu Tianlin appeared beside Dugu Bo, agreeing silently.
His elder brother had become arrogant because of dragon transformation. Dugu Yan had become arrogant because of immortal herbs.
Yu Tianlin was also a little surprised. He knew Dugu Bo was usually aloof. Aside from his granddaughter and Prince Xuexing, everyone else was just air to him. Yu Tianlin did not expect Dugu Bo to bother giving advice today.
Perhaps it was because the poison problem had been resolved, and the pressure of death was gone. Dugu Bo's temperament had clearly softened. And since these people were all his granddaughter's companions, he finally felt like paying attention.
"Your Excellency, Poison Douluo."
Seeing Dugu Bo, Qin Ming placed a hand on his chest, preparing to bow, but Dugu Bo interrupted him immediately.
"You are Yan Yan's teacher. No need for formalities." He waved it away, then looked at the Royal Fighting Team. "Same for all of you. You're Yan Yan's friends. No need to stand on ceremony."
"Grandpa, you're finally back!" Dugu Yan rushed forward the moment she saw them. The instant she noticed Dugu Bo's hair had turned gray again, she understood. The poison in her grandfather's body had been cured.
She threw herself into Dugu Bo's arms, eyes bright. "I missed you so much."
Dugu Bo held her, then casually checked her cultivation. When he sensed she had reached level 37, advancing 3 levels in half a year, his heart filled with satisfaction.
Yu Tianlin was absolutely right. After eating those 2 immortal herbs, Yan Yan's aptitude had been improved to this extent.
With this cultivation speed, reaching Title Douluo in the future was all but guaranteed.
