Chapter 96 A Difficult Decision
Long Chen immediately understood what Yue Guan meant.
He knew that Bibi Dong attached great importance to the champion of this Soul Master Competition, and he also knew Bibi Dong's ruthless methods.
"Elder Yue, do you mean that the Pope is going to attack me?"
Yue Guan's face changed after hearing this.
"Boy, it's not just the Spirit Hall, other major forces are also threats. A young soul master as outstanding as you will not live long without a strong background. Do you understand what I mean?"
Long Chen nodded.
"I understand. So, you came to me to persuade me to join the Spirit Hall?"
Yue Guan smiled.
"You are a smart person. I know that you have a special relationship with Dugu Bo. Although he is a Titled Douluo, he is like a wandering cloud and has made many enemies. You can't rely on him. If you are willing to join the Spirit Hall, or become my disciple, I can guarantee your safety. With your talent and strength, your future in the Spirit Hall will be limitless."
Long Chen understood all these principles.
But, he couldn't work for Bibi Dong.
"Elder Yue, I appreciate your kindness. But I can't join the Spirit Hall for the time being."
"Boy, have you thought it through? I'm saving you."
"I know, thank you for your kind reminder. In fact, I just want to be a free and easy spirit master and not work for any force."
Yue Guan frowned and sighed:
"You performed too brilliantly in the finals of the Spirit Master Competition. Not only did you defeat the Star Luo Royal Academy and win honor for the Tiandou Empire, you also led the team into the final three. If nothing unexpected happens, you will get the second place.
I heard that Emperor Xue Ye promised you that with such an amazing performance, you will definitely receive generous rewards and even reuse after returning to the Tiandou Empire. How will you deal with it then?"
Long Chen smiled disapprovingly.
Fame and money are irrelevant to him.
When you are strong enough, you will have everything.
"Don't worry, I will never work for the royal family. I don't care about money or titles."
"Then why did you enter Tiandou Royal Academy and represent them in the competition?"
"For the people I want to protect, I won't let her be bullied or hurt, that's all."
"Are you talking about that healer?"
Long Chen nodded slightly.
"To be honest, I was picked up by Ye Lingling's parents and grew up with her. She is just a healer and has no attack or defense capabilities, so I will do my best to protect her."
Yue Guan was stunned.
Feeling Long Chen's determination to protect Ye Lingling, he thought of his sister.
Yue Guan was born in a poor family and depended on his sister since childhood.
His martial soul awakened to Chrysanthemum. Because of his low talent, he could only rely on his own efforts to practice.
His childhood life was full of hardships and ridicule.
When he was looked down upon, only his sister truly loved him, protected him, and believed in him.
In order to support his schooling, his sister even sold flowers and was unfortunately killed by bad guys.
Later, he worked hard to cultivate the seemingly insignificantmartial spirit to the Titled Douluo realm and became an elder of the Spirit Hall.
He loved flowers all his life, which was also a way to commemorate his sister.
In Long Chen, he seemed to see a trace of his sister, who could do anything for the people he wanted to protect.
"Boy, you are a man of love and righteousness. But in this world where the weak are the prey of the strong, it is not so easy to be a scattered soul master with your talent and strength. Back then,Gui and I were also scattered soul masters, and later we both joined the Spirit Hall.
The Nine-Hearted Begonia Soul Master is protected by the Tiandou Royal Family, so you don't need to worry too much about her. You should think more about yourself."
"Okay, I get it."
Yue Guan looked at Long Chen, knowing very well that Long Chen would not join the Spirit Hall in the short term.
But fortunately, he would not work for the Tiandou Royal Family.
Because of this, Bibi Dong might be able to spare his life for the time being.
In addition, he is a member of the Tiandou Royal Academy, so it is not easy to attack him blatantly except in competitions.
"Boy, don't blame me for not reminding you. If you meet the Spirit Hall Academy in the finals, you should admit defeat. You have seen Xie Yue and Hu Liena's spirit fusion skills, but that's not all. The overall strength of the Spirit Hall Academy team is far stronger than you think."
"Elder Yue, thank you for your kind reminder. I will make a cautious decision after discussing with my teacher and teammates."
"Okay, I'm leaving. Take care of yourself."
Long Chen watched Yue Guan leave.
He knew that in the state of the spirit fusion skill, Xie Yue could still use powerful self-created spirit skills.
Yue Guan's meaning was very clear. As long as he avoided the Spirit Hall Academy team, he would not be hurt by Xie Yue.
After Yue Guan left, Dugu Bo, Liu Zhicheng, Ye Lingling and the members of Tiandou Royal Academy came to Long Chen's room.
Dugu Bo asked,
"Xiao chen, are you okay?"
"Don't worry, I'm fine."
"What did Yue Guan say to you? Is it convenient to tell?"
"It's not inconvenient. He has no ill intentions. He wants to persuade us to give up the game with the Spirit Hall Academy. That way, we won't be hurt."
After hearing this, several people looked at each other.
Dugu Yan was a little unconvinced.
"He actually wanted to persuade us to give up the game. We have finally come to this point. How can we give up the game?!"
"That's right. Although the Spirit Hall Academy team is very strong, we are not without a chance."
Yu Tianheng was also a little unconvinced.
Liu Zhicheng looked solemn, and suddenly said:
"Children, I have been hesitating today, and I don't know how to speak to you. I would like to take this opportunity to express my opinion.
You have seen the miserable state of the seven main players of Wind Academy. The martial soul fusion skill of Hu Liena and Xie Yue is a very powerful skill, and the fusion speed is extremely fast. With those powerful teammates, it is not easy to be interrupted.
What you see is just the appearance. Its power is far beyond your imagination. Even I can't see the situation in the red fog.
It is not easy for you to get to this point. You have paid a lot of hardships and efforts. This is the best opportunity to prove yourself.
Of course, I also hope that you can bring more honor to the empire, but I hope that each of you is safe and sound. Your personal safety is the most important."
After listening to Liu Zhicheng's words, several people were silent.
Liu Zhicheng is already at the Soul Saint level, but he will also be affected by the demon, not to mention them.
Long Chen suddenly said:
"Teacher Liu is right. It is indeed very dangerous to fight against the Spirit Hall Academy. What's more terrifying is that Xie Yue can use his own soul skills with great lethality within the range of the spirit fusion skills."
