Chapter 13: The Promise, the Battle Four Months Later
Yu Luomian said without backing down, "Ever since the battle between Clear Sky Douluo and the Pope of the Spirit Hall six years ago, the Clear Sky Clan announced its retirement. The situation on the continent seems calm on the surface, but in reality, there are turbulent undercurrents."
"After the previous Pope of the Spirit Hall, Qian Xunji, died from his injuries, the newly appointed Bibi Dong is plotting something. I have a feeling that she has been targeting our Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan intentionally or unintentionally."
"The Clear Sky Clan has disappeared into some hidden corner again, so our best option now is to unite with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan to jointly resist the pressure from the Spirit Hall. However, Ning Fengzhi, the current leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, is no simple character either. He is cunning and deep, so forming an alliance will not be easy."
Yu Luomian looked directly at his elder brother Yu Yuanzhen and said in a deep voice, "In the end, one must be strong to forge iron. That is why the six of us elders gave up our share of Dragon Origin Fruit and gave you all of them, hoping that you can take another step forward and break through to level ninety seven. Only in this way can our Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan have the confidence to deal with all difficulties."
At this point, Yu Luomian gave a self deprecating laugh. "If we elders had consumed our own Dragon Origin Fruits, we might have all broken through our current levels, and I might even have had a slight chance to break through to the Title Douluo realm. However, we chose to give them up and give the Dragon Origin Fruits to you, and now you are thinking of giving the Dragon Origin Fruits to Tianlin."
Yu Yuanzhen had been listening quietly to his younger brother's explanation. Hearing him mention Yu Tianlin, Yu Yuanzhen finally spoke up. "Luo Mian, Tianlin is a once in a century talent with full innate spirit power in our Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan. His talent is unparalleled; reaching level ninety five will not be a problem. Now his spirit rings are experiencing a minor issue. If it is not remedied, his talent will be wasted."
Yu Luomian retorted, "Brother, there are priorities. Even considering the current youngest Title Douluo, Tang Hao, it will take Tianlin forty years to break through to the Title Douluo realm. Forty years from now, who knows what the situation on the continent will be like? The most urgent task is to improve your strength, brother."
Yu Yuanzhen remained silent for a moment, then said without backing down, "I am the Clan leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, and my word is law. The Dragon Origin Fruit must be given to me."
"Brother, do you really want to do this?" Yu Luomian had not expected that all his words were useless, and Yu Yuanzhen had not listened at all. He could not help but say angrily, "Fine, if that is the case, then let us come up with a plan."
"Last night I awakened Tianqing's Martial Spirit. As expected, his Martial Spirit is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, and his innate spirit power is level eight and a half," Yu Luomian said. "In four months, Tianqing's spirit power will definitely break through level ten. At that time, I will naturally take him to find a suitable spirit ring. After reaching level eleven, let Tianqing fight Tianlin. If Tianlin wins, he can have the Dragon Origin Fruit; if Tianlin loses, then this matter should be dropped."
Yu Luomian sneered, "How about that? Is this fair? Four months from now, Tianlin will definitely have reached level twelve, or even close to level thirteen, and will have a certain advantage in terms of spirit power. Even if his spirit rings are slightly worse than Tianqing's, they will cancel each other out, and their strength will be about the same."
Upon hearing Yu Luomian's words, Yu Yuanzhen angrily retorted, "Luomian, you awakened Tianqing's Martial Spirit last night! He is not even six years old yet! How could you do this? What if something goes wrong?"
"He's my own grandson, I know what I am doing. Tianqing is less than a month away from six years old, it will not make a big difference," Yu Luomian said. "But you, elder brother, do you dare to accept this challenge?"
Yu Yuanzhen did not hesitate and immediately agreed. "Fine, let them fight. My grandson cannot possibly lose to your grandson."
"Then that is settled. I will go back and inform the other elders now. I do not think they will have any objections." Having received a definite answer, Yu Luomian turned to leave. But as he reached the entrance of the council hall, he suddenly turned to Yu Yuanzhen and said, "Brother, do not give the Dragon Origin Fruit to Tianlin before their duel."
Yu Yuanzhen said impatiently, "I know, I would not go back on my word."
Yu Luomian said no more and strode away. However, he had only taken a few steps when he saw Yu Tianlin running towards the council hall.
What is Tianlin doing running to the council hall again? Is he going to ask for the Dragon Origin Fruit?
Although he was a little confused, Yu Luomian did not care. He knew his older brother well; once Yu Yuanzhen made a promise, he would never go back on it, and Tianlin was destined to make a wasted trip.
Thinking of this, Yu Luomian shook his head, ignored it, and left.
Yu Tianlin's spirit ring had changed, and he was now overjoyed. He vaguely guessed some of the reasons, but he was not sure. That was why he rushed to the council hall, hoping that his grandfather could take a look and analyze it for him.
This time, Yu Tianlin did not ask the gatekeeper to announce his arrival and ran straight into the lobby.
"Tianlin, why are you here again?" Seeing that Yu Tianlin had just returned and was already running over again, Yu Yuanzhen understood that Yu Tianlin had come to ask him for the Dragon Origin Fruit. He said, "I just promised your second grandfather..."
However, Yu Tianlin interrupted Yu Yuanzhen directly, saying excitedly, "Grandpa, look!"
As he spoke, Yu Tianlin activated his spirit power. As lightning flashed across his body and a lightning pattern appeared between his brows, a pale yellow halo slowly rose.
Yu Tianlin's eyes shone with excitement. "Grandpa, I do not know why, but my spirit ring has turned yellow. It is different from the previous yellowish white one; this one is pure yellow now."
Yu Yuanzhen was still thinking about the Dragon Origin Fruit when he suddenly saw the pale yellow spirit ring on Yu Tianlin's body and subconsciously got up from his seat.
Yu Tianlin felt his vision blur, and his grandfather appeared beside him, closely observing the spirit ring on his body.
"It really is a yellow spirit ring!" Yu Yuanzhen exclaimed in astonishment. "Although the color is very light, it is undoubtedly at the hundred year level."
Yu Yuanzhen was also puzzled for a moment. "That is not right. If a spirit ring mutates, this kind of thing would only happen during the absorption process. But when I looked at your spirit ring just now, it was white with a hint of yellow. How did it suddenly change?"
Yu Tianlin had a guess and quickly said, "Just now my spirit ring was white with a hint of yellow, but now it has suddenly turned yellow, so this change must have been completed in that short period of time just now."
At this point, Yu Tianlin and Yu Yuanzhen exchanged a glance and said in unison, "Lightning strike."
