Chapter 1572: A Test?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Yuanen Zhentian found this very satisfactory too. Perhaps, this would prolong the wait before his eldest son could succeed him, but that was not important! He had already ascended to quasigod level, so it would not be an issue for him to live another three to four decades. At the thought of this, he could not keep the smile on his face from growing wider. His son was going to be a four-word battle armor master. A four-word battle armor master!

“Alright, let’s head back now. This is a grand event. I shall throw a banquet for us to celebrate.” Yuanen Zhentian waved his huge hand and lead the group as they walked back to the village excitedly.

The result was satisfactory for all of them. Yuanen Yehui was the happiest because she would not need to part with her father anymore. She was truly overjoyed.

Only Xie Xie appeared to wear a sad face. He wondered what it would be like having his future father-in-law supervising at his side all the time! Generally, a father-in-law would always try to make things difficult for the son-in-law, just like how a mother-in-law would treat a daughter-in-law. Anyhow, Xie Xie had always felt that Yuanen Tiandang looked at him with a strange gaze and occasionally, would even reveal his fierce manner.

He was having a tough time these days! However, he was feeling rather excited after seeing Yuanen Yehui so happy and she was smiling more than she had done over the past few years. This was what he wanted for her the most.

As Tang Wulin was walking, he noticed that someone was tugging at his sleeve. He turned his head to the side and saw a face that was filled with the expression of someone trying to launch a surprise attack.

“Cough, cough, erm, Tang Sect Master. Other than my eldest brother, do you need more help on your side?” The person pulling at Tang Wulin was Yuanen Yehui’s second uncle, Yuanen Tianshang.”

Tang Wulin felt an idea arose in his mind. He nodded without the slightest hesitation. “Yes, of course. During the great catastrophe that befell our Shrek, many of our teachers had sacrificed their lives in order to give our students an opportunity to escape. We are still lacking in our teaching strength.”

Yuanen Tianshang coughed once again. “So do you think that I can do it?” The idea of owning a set of three-word battle armor was enticing! He had yet to possess a set of three-word battle armor.

Judging by his natural talent, even though he was not as great as his eldest brother, he was certainly not to be dismissed either. Over the years, the hatred in his heart had motivated him to work hard and spare no effort in cultivating. He had elevated himself to Title Douluo in the end. Even though he was incapable of making any progress after he reached that rank, he was still a Title Douluo-ranked powerhouse after all.

More importantly, Yuanen Yehui’s return this time had allowed his eldest brother to recover and the knot in his chest had finally untied. After that, he discovered that his cultivation base, which had long since been stunted, had begun to elevate rather rapidly during the cultivation process.

Ever since his wife’s passing, the only thing that mattered to him was cultivation. He was already a Title Douluo, yet he did not even have a set of three-word battle armor and it was most unfortunate. If he could become a three-word battle armor master just by going over to Shrek Academy, would he ever encounter such a great chance like this again? He did not want to miss such a great opportunity like this either! As a result, he had already made up his mind to head to Shrek earlier.

Tang Wulin took a glance at Yuanen Zhentian walking ahead and he murmured with some hesitation, “Uh…” He had already taken the clan’s successor, so it seemed to be rather irrational for him to take the clan elder’s second son as well.

Yuanen Tianshang spoke nervously, “It’s going to be fine. I will explain it to my father. I’m not the successor after all. The eldest son is going to inherit the clan estate. Thus, I’m a free man. It won’t be an issue if I stay in Shrek for a very long time. Shrek Academy was the place that I yearned for when I was young!”

Tang Wulin nodded and said, “As long as Senior Zhentian agrees to this, we will welcome you with open arms, of course.”

He believed that Yuanen Zhentian would certainly have heard their conversation from the front. The decision was up to Yuanen Zhentian because it was their clan after all. Moreover, Tang Wulin had noticed that it was not only Yuanen Tianshang who was looking at him. The group of powerhouses in the Titan Giant Ape Clan were all staring at him with glowing eyes.

Out of the dozen people on the scene, those with the weakest cultivation bases were at Soul Douluo-rank. The Titan Giant Ape Clan was a small, remote village. Even though the people lived peacefully, they were genuinely lacking in resources. As such, their lives were rather pitiful.

Yuane Zhentian did not speak or turn around. He took the group of people back to the clan’s mansion.

A scrumptious feast began not long after. Yuanen Zhentian brought along the group of the clan’s powerhouses to formally entertain Tang Wulin. He had never given such treatment to him before.

A person’s capalibity was always the foundation when gaining other people’s respect. The battle between Xie Xie, Yuanen Yehui and Tang Wulin had received the full approval of the people. However, his abilities alone were not enough to gain Yuanen Zhentian’s respect. More importantly, there was Tang Wulin’s identity as a Divine Craftsman.

After three cups of wine, Tang Wulin’s eyes were glowing brighter and brighter. On the other hand, Xie Xie was already slumped on a table nearby.

He was drunk because of Yuanen Tiandang. His ominous presentiment was correct. A father-in-law could never bear the sight of his son-in-law. Yuanen Tiandang proposed that Xie Xie to accompany him in the tasting of wine and even proposed that Xie Xie drink three cups of wine for every cup he drank himself.

Even though Xie Xie’s cultivation base was quite powerful, how did he have the audacity to neutralize the alcohol with his soul power?! Naturally, he slumped onto the table when he was drunk.

Yuanen Yehui did not stop them either. She watched from the side smilingly. Such a small amount of wine could not possibly harm Xie Xie. As she watched him contend with Xie Xie, she could feel her father’s love. It had been many years since she had felt that. There was only happiness in her heart now. If it got any worse, she would figure out a way to compensate Xie Xie through other means later.

“Tang Sect Master, I would like to toast to you again.” Yuanen Zhentian stood up and raised his cup.

Tang Wulin hastily stood up. “The pleasure is mine. Senior, you’re being too courteous. I’m a junior, so it should be me toasting to you.”

Yuanen Zhentian burst out laughing and joined Tang Wulin as they drained their cups in one gulp. “Tang Sect Master, I have a presumptuous request. Even though it might offend you, I can’t help myself. It’s fine if you think that it is inconvenient.”

Tang Wulin was thinking to himself, ‘Now that you’ve said that, can I really still request that you keep it to yourself?’

“There’s no need to be courteous, senior. Please go on.”

Yuanen Zhentian chuckled and said, “I would like to invite the Tang Sect Master to demonstrate Heavenly Refinement for us. Frankly, I’ve never witnessed the magnificent feat of Heavenly Refinement in my entire life. I’ve always longed to see it, so I was wondering if you have the time to demonstrate a little for us?”

‘Are you asking this because you’re feeling uncertain about me?’ Tang Wulin thought to himself in his heart. However, he pondered and concluded that this was only human nature. He nodded and said, “Sure, it’s fine. Shall I do it now?”

It was Yuanen Zhentian’s turn to be shocked this time. There was no doubt that Tang Wulin was feeling very confident if he had the courage to say so.

“We’ve drank some wine. I’m afraid that it’s going to affect your condition,” said Yuanen Zhentian.

Tang Wulin smiled. “I’m fine and I can give it a try. However, the success rate of Heavenly Refinement itself is not considered too high either. Thus, I can’t guarantee that it is going to succeed for certain, but it is still worth seeing the process.”

Yuanen Zhentian felt as his chest tightened a little, but he still nodded after thinking about the plan he had on his mind. He said, “Very well. Then we shall trouble the Tang Sect Master. Please let us know if you need anything and I shall send them to make preparations. Shall we begin after the meal?”

Tang Wulin waved his hand. “No, there’s no need to prepare anything. I’m just going to do it directly in the courtyard outside so we can entertain everyone.”

Tang Wulin was not feeling particularly uneasy. How was he going to take a Limit Douluo with him if he did not make a display of his capabilities? Everything was worth it as long as he could leave with Yuanen Tiandang.

The numerous powerhouses of the Titan Giant Ape Clan among them admired Tang Wulin even more after seeing him consenting to do the demonstration without the slightest hesitation.

There was no doubt that Tang Wulin was very confident in himself since he agreed to do it so easily. Even though they agreed that the clan elder’s request was a little offensive, they also were eager to see it. They wanted to watch how a Divine Craftsman completed his forging process.

Tang Wulin walked out from the hall in long strides and arrived in the spacious main courtyard outside. The rest of the people followed and stood in a circle around him.
