Chapter 151 The Story of the Nine-Hearted Begonia Martial Soul
The silver moon hung high, its cool light shining on the imposing gates of the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy.
At this moment, Dugu Bo and Tang Chuan were walking side by side into the academy, the moonlight shining on them and casting long shadows on the bluestone path.
"Kid, how many people do you think will leave Tiandou this time and join our academy?" Dugu Bo suddenly asked as they walked.
A thoughtful look flashed in Tang Chuan's eyes. He slowed his pace slightly and said softly after a moment of silence, "We are still two people short of being able to successfully participate in the All-Continent Elite Soul Master Tournament. I believe that at least one of them is willing to join us this time."
"Who?" Dugu Bo turned his head in confusion and asked.
"Ye Lingling." Tang Chuan smiled slightly and explained, "Ever since I entered the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, I've had a pretty good relationship with her and your granddaughter."
At this point, he suddenly smiled at Dugu Bo, "Doesn't Yu Tianheng like your granddaughter? Since Yanzi joined our academy, I guess he'll join too, right?"
"Hmph! I don't like this guy at all."
Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's old face darkened, a hint of displeasure flashing in his eyes. He said with a touch of sarcasm, "I think that Yu Tianheng came to approach Yan Yan simply to win me over so that I would stand with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan."
"What you said isn't entirely unreasonable. Let's go in and see what they have to say." Hearing this, Tang Chuan helplessly shrugged and said.
Dugu Bo snorted irritably, even his mustache twitching slightly in anger, and said:
"What do you mean? I think if Yu Tianheng knew that we were just one or two people short of being able to participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament, he might use that to blackmail me into agreeing to his marriage with Yan Yan."
"If that's the case, then we can get rid of him. Our academy doesn't care whether he's here or not." Upon hearing this, a fierce glint flashed in Tang Chuan's eyes, and he said in an extremely forceful manner.
As he finished speaking, he suddenly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a confident smile.
"Not enough people? At worst, I'll create a few clones and bring them to the competition. I think the few of us are more than enough to win the championship."
"Hahaha! I love your confident look!" Dugu Bo laughed loudly, his laughter echoing in the quiet night sky and startling several birds that were roosting there.
"I think that with your and Xiao Ruier's strength, apart from the Spirit Hall team, no other team could possibly be a match for the two of you."
As he spoke, he patted Tang Chuan's shoulder forcefully, his eyes full of admiration.
Upon hearing this, Tang Chuan and Dugu Bo exchanged a smile, did not refute it, and stepped into the academy gate.
In his view, what Dugu Bo said was not entirely without merit.
His own soul power level had reached level 50, and Xiao Ruier's soul power level was also approaching level 50. The two also possessed a martial soul fusion skill, meaning that apart from the Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall team, other teams could really be treated like easy prey.
After entering the college.
Tang Chuan did not choose to go find Yu Tianheng first.
Instead, he came alone to the courtyard where Ye Lingling lived.
The moonlight poured down like mercury into the exquisite courtyard. Ye Lingling was sitting alone on a stone bench. Her slender fingers unconsciously twisted the hem of her clothes. Her cool profile looked exceptionally beautiful in the moonlight, yet it also carried a hint of melancholy, as if she had something on her mind.
"I wonder when the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul will be able to get rid of the defect that it can only be passed down to one lineage. I remember my father saying that a long time ago, this Martial Soul was not like this."
Resting her chin on her hand, Ye Lingling looked up at the bright moon in the sky and murmured softly.
Although the Nine-Heart Begonia Martial Soul is not like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, which has limitations on the improvement of soul power level, it has a bigger drawback.
That is why the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul can only be passed down to one lineage.
Therefore, the number of Nine-Heart Begonia Soul Masters on the Douluo Continent is extremely small.
Furthermore, each generation of Nine Heart Begonia Soul Masters can only have one successor.
In other words.
At any given time, there can only be a maximum of two Nine-Heart Begonia Soul Masters alive.
Ning Fengzhi once said that if the Nine Heart Begonia could be passed down through a single lineage, the title of the number one support soul master on the continent would definitely not have gone to his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.
Only after the death of one owner can a successor to the Martial Soul appear in the next generation.
This also means that while Nine-Heart Begonia Soul Masters obtain powerful healing-type martial souls, they often experience immense pain from losing loved ones.
Back then, Ye Lingling's grandfather resolutely chose to end his own life so that Ye Lingling could awaken the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul.
Similarly, Ye Lingling's great-grandfather did the same.
In order to enable Ye Lingling's father, Ye Renxin, to awaken the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul and pass on this already rare Martial Soul, he also chose to end his own life.
Perhaps one day in the future, when Ye Lingling also has children, her father will also choose to die in order to ensure the successful inheritance of the Nine Heart Begonia martial spirit.
It was precisely because of the flaws in the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul that Ye Lingling was usually taciturn. She had almost no friends, didn't like to talk, and was always alone.
Because of her childhood.
She witnessed her loved ones die so that she could awaken the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul.
This sense of helplessness in the face of life and death shaped Ye Lingling's personality.
"If possible, when it comes to my generation, no matter how much effort I have to put in, I will find a way to solve the defects in the Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul."
"Because only in this way will Father not..."
Just as a strange feeling was taking root in Ye Lingling's heart, a blue coat was gently draped over her from behind.
"Lingling, what are you thinking about? Is it because of your martial soul?"
"It's cold outside, put on a coat."
Tang Chuan's familiar and gentle voice stirred something within Ye Lingling, who was most sensitive at that moment.
The next second, she turned around, sniffed lightly, blinked her long eyelashes to hide the moisture in her eyes, and asked softly:
"Aren't you a very busy person? What brings you here to see me today?"
Hearing this, Tang Chuan scratched his head awkwardly and smiled sheepishly, "No matter how busy I am, I can't forget my old friend. That's why I came to see you as soon as I had a spare moment, isn't it?"
Moonlight fell on his earnest profile, and then he slowly walked to the stone bench, changing the subject.
"Lingling, I remember you told me about your martial soul's flaw before. I think you don't need to worry too much. I'm here to help you resolve this issue."
"But in return, you have to promise me one thing."
Upon hearing this, Ye Lingling abruptly stood up, her sleeve accidentally knocking over a teacup on the stone table. Her voice trembled with excitement as she said in disbelief:
"What did you say? You can solve my martial soul problem? This...this is true?"
Her hands unconsciously gripped Tang Chuan's arm, her fingertips trembling slightly.
"You should know that Yanzi's martial soul, the Azure Phosphorous Serpent, evolved into the Azure Phosphorous Serpent Emperor with my help. If I can help her evolve her martial soul, I can naturally help you as well." Looking into Ye Lingling's slightly trembling eyes, Tang Chuan remained silent for a moment before explaining.
"Perhaps, after your Nine Heart Begonia evolves, the flaws in your martial soul will disappear."
"Soul evolution?" Although she had expected it, Ye Lingling was still taken aback when she heard Tang Chuan say this. She said seriously:
"My Nine Heart Begonia Martial Soul does seem to be able to evolve."
"When I was a child, my father told me a story. Legend has it that a long, long time ago, an ancestor was lucky enough to obtain a rare and precious herb, and his martial soul evolved. A hundred years later, this ancestor cultivated his soul power to level 100 and ascended to godhood with another food-type soul master, leaving Douluo Continent for a higher plane. However, the truth of this legend is unknown."
