Although they didn't engage in a fight, after a brief display of Ye Yu's power, they were quite astounded. Then, Tang San and the others released their Martial Souls, helping them realign with their own goals. Ye Yu is not the target they should pursue; it's impossible, so they can only set their sights on Tang San and the others.
When they arrived at the office, Flander was both excited and gratified. Ye Yu had already surpassed them. He believed that Tang San and the others would soon do the same.
When Ye Yu and the others arrived at the office, Flander immediately asked, "Xiao Yu, how strong have you become at full strength now?"
Ye Yu confidently replied, "Below a Titled Douluo, I dare claim to be the best."
Flander and Liu Erlong were stunned, and since Ye Yu dared to make such a claim, it was clear he possessed that strength.
Tang San said, "A few days ago, Brother Yu and I were at the Vast Heaven Sect, and we fought against the Fiery Sun Douluo from the Vast Heaven Sect. In the end, the Fiery Sun Douluo was defeated. Although Brother Yu's combat power hasn't reached the level of a Titled Douluo, in a battle of attrition, even a Ninety-First Level Titled Douluo wouldn't stand a chance."
Upon hearing this, Flander and the others were even more shocked. Even though he and Erlong were both over level eighty, their combined Fusion Skill wouldn't reach the level of a Titled Douluo.
Zhao Wuji felt a sense of relief, his old face reddening. "I thought I was being underestimated earlier, but it seems I underestimated Ye Yu."
Tang San laughed, "If it were a fight, Teacher Zhao would have been in a worse state than back then."
Dai Mubai and the others were both shocked and happy; Ye Yu had become so strong.
Ma Hongjun admired, "As expected of Boss Yu. At level sixty-eight, he's already arguably the best below the Titled Douluo. I believe upon becoming a Soul Saint, his power would rival Titled Douluos just above level ninety."
Flander marveled, "To achieve such a level, it's only Xiao Yu. After all, he's an inheritor of the Origin of Evil, one of the universe's three great origins."
After expressing his amazement, Flander asked, "Little monsters, what are your plans for the future?"
Flander mainly looked at Ye Yu, Tang San, and Ma Hongjun.
Ning Rongrong had already inherited the position of Seven Treasure Glaze Sect Leader, and Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing had each inherited their respective families.
Ma Hongjun said, "Dean, I've almost finished my travels over these five years. I want to work harder to improve. Now I seem to be the worst among us. I wish to stay here and train with you and the Master. If I can become a teacher at the academy, that would be fine as well."
Flander was gratified, "Not bad. Knowing how to pay back, you can train with me and Xiao Gang, or become a teacher."
Ma Hongjun giggled, somewhat self-satisfied.
After Ma Hongjun finished speaking, Dai Mubai said, "I've seen through your little thinking. I think you want to stay at the academy as it's convenient for flirting, isn't it? The students hold us in high regard, so flirting must be quite easy here."
Unveiling his thoughts, Ma Hongjun's face turned red. "Boss Dai, am I that kind of person? I am a decent person. Don't compare me to you. You had so many, like twins, lolitas, big sisters, just too many."
Dai Mubai didn't mind. No matter what Ma Hongjun said, the woman he liked wasn't here anyway.
Because Zhu Zhuqing had a crush on Ye Yu, Dai Mubai had no thoughts of her.
Flander looked at Tang San, "And you?"
Tang San said, "I've thought about it before. I will go to the Xingdou Great Forest to find Xiao Wu. I might stay in the Xingdou Great Forest for a while to cultivate, or we might travel around the continent to continuously improve and become stronger."
Flander nodded, "Yes, only by being strong can we do what we want. If you have nowhere to go by then, come back to the academy. No matter what happens, come back and we'll face it together."
"Mhm." Tang San nodded.
Master asked, "Xiao San, when are you leaving?"
"Tomorrow, I will go tomorrow morning. Although this reunion is brief, let's make another five-year pact. Although five years have passed and we've all become stronger, we're still not strong enough to stand on our own. So, in five years, we will reunite again, and by then I will bring Xiao Wu. I believe five years later, all of us, the Shrek Seven Monsters and One Demon, will be gathered."
Tang San's words were agreed upon by everyone. Indeed, more strength is needed. Even Ye Yu needs to continue cultivating. Although his power is already strong, it's not enough to contend with the Martial Soul Hall.
Flander looked at Ye Yu, "Xiao Yu, what about you?"
"Me? I intend to visit the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan first."
Upon hearing this, Flander was surprised.
Master and Liu Erlong glanced at each other, seemingly having guessed.
Master hesitated, "Xiao Yu, do you intend to...? There's no need to trouble yourself with this."
Ye Yu said, "You're my teacher. If you face difficulties, naturally, I should help and repay you. Later, the three of us will go to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan together. What must be faced always has to be faced. Teacher, you're not going to run away again, are you?"
Master shook his head, "Not anymore."
Master looked affectionately at Erlong, "This time, I will face it together with Erlong."
Afterwards, the three of them, Ye Yu, Master, and Liu Erlong, went to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan, arriving by evening.
Although Master had left the family, Patriarch Yu Yuanzhen still missed him greatly.
Entering the family, they went to the hall. Master and Liu Erlong entered first, while Ye Yu waited outside.
Sitting at the forefront was the clan leader Yu Yuanzhen, who was in his seventies, weathered yet imposing, a Ninety-Fifth Level Titled Douluo.
It's said that the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan became one of the Upper Three Sects entirely because of him alone. He's the only Titled Douluo in the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan. The other three Elders and ten Seniors are all Soul Douluos.
With the strength at level ninety-five, plus the first Beast Martial Soul Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus, his combat power was formidable. In the original Soul Hunting Operation, Yu Yuanzhen faced four Titled Douluos alone. Although he perished, he managed to take one Titled Douluo down with him, showcasing his incredible power.
Yu Yuanzhen was overwhelmed with emotions internally, though he maintained a calm facade. He asked blandly, "Why have you come back? Have you finally come to your senses? You won't still be thinking about Erlong, will you..."
Before he could finish, Master interrupted.
Master spoke with difficulty, "Father, I've returned this time to tell you all that I've decided to be with Erlong."
"What?"
Yu Yuanzhen's expression changed, and the other Elders and seniors were even more taken aback and furious.
"Yu Xiaogang, this is impossible! She's your cousin!"
Master no longer avoided the issue. He stepped forward to stand before Erlong, showing the side of him that was a man.
"I will no longer care about worldly perceptions, nor will I care how others think. I only care what Erlong thinks. I will give her what she wants and not give you the outcome you desire."
"You! How dare you!"
The Elders were enraged, saying to Yu Yuanzhen, "Sect Leader, we allowed him to enter, thinking he had come to his senses. Never did we expect such intractability. We hope you expel him from the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan forever."
Before Yu Yuanzhen could speak, Liu Erlong firmly stated, "If Xiaogang leaves, I will leave too and no longer be a part of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan."
Liu Erlong's words infuriated everyone.
Yu Yuanzhen's expression was grim as he looked at the three Elders and ten Seniors. "What are your opinions?"
"Disapprove!"
All thirteen replied in unison.
"If you disapprove, then Aunt Er Long, you should leave the clan with Master."
At this moment, Ye Yu entered.
The three Elders moved around, sneering, "Think it's that easy to come and go as you please?"
