Douluo Dalu: Start with a Heavenly Fire Sacred Judgement

Chapter 187: Once you sign the contract, you are mine

Xu Sanshi expressed his support for Beibei's choice, because he knew it was useless to stop him. He was also that kind of person. If he was replaced by Beibei and Jiang Nannan was replaced by Tang Ya, he would make the same choice as Beibei.

Xiaoxiao and the others looked at each other, but still expressed their support and said that it would be better for Beibei to take Tang Ya back to Shrek City. With Tang Ya's level of cultivation, it must be very hard for her to be alone outside without anyone to help her.

But Ji Lin knew that Beibei's trip was in vain. Tang Ya never thought of coming back alive this time. She went there for revenge. Although Ji Lin did not understand Tang Ya's act of giving away her life, he would not say much. He had not experienced the pain of Tang Ya's parents' tragic death and the sect's residence being forcibly occupied, so he could not understand Tang Ya's feelings. He had no right to speak without experiencing it.

Although his arrival had changed many things, he didn't know whether it would affect Tang Ya's fate. Would Tang Ya become an evil spirit master? When Tang Ya left, he was still in retreat in the Sea God Pavilion, and had no chance to remind Bei Bei. Moreover, he couldn't tell Bei Bei directly that Xiao Ya had gone back to seek revenge, to give away her life, and would become an evil spirit master. These words couldn't be said. Bei Bei, the person closest to Tang Ya, didn't know what Tang Ya really thought in her heart, so how could Ji Lin know.

Ji Lin was also helpless, he had a good relationship with Bei Bei. After all, they were teammates who participated in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition together. Bei Bei also had a good personality, and Ji Lin did not hate him.

But he couldn't help with this matter. If Tang Ya didn't say anything herself, who could help her? If she told Beibei her true thoughts, with Beibei's identity, was there really no way for him to help Tang Ya get revenge?

Ji Lin guessed that Tang Ya probably didn't know Bei Bei's identity, so she took it all on her own and didn't want to implicate Bei Bei.

After all, Beibei is just a Soul Master now and has not grown up yet, but Tang Ya doesn’t want to wait any longer.

Although the atmosphere of the meal was heavy for a while because of Tang Ya's matter, after Beibei made up his mind to find Tang Ya, he became the gentle and elegant Beibei again.

Everyone was young, so they all drank beverages. Although there is no national regulation in Douluo Continent that prohibits minors from drinking, there were many girls on the scene, so it was not suitable for them to drink.

After the dinner, Bei Bei, the other two, and Huo Yuhao left, leaving Ji Lin and the other eight in the private room.

Ji Lin looked at Zhou Sichen and the other three and said, "I should have told you before that I have established a sect called Zizai Sect. Xiaoxiao and the others have already joined. I hope you can join Zizai Sect, too."

Zhou Sichen smiled and said, "Boss, I've been waiting for you to say this."

Cao Jinxuan also smiled and said, "I discussed this with Lao Zhou before. If you don't invite us, we will come to you to join us."

Lan Susu also said, "Lolo and I have been waiting for you for a long time. Xiaoxiao told us that she wanted to join your sect, but you didn't say anything. Luoluo and I thought you disliked us."

After saying this, the twin sisters looked at Ji Lin with resentful eyes at the same time.

Ji Lin touched his nose awkwardly. He was busy with cultivation before, and then there was the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition, and he was in seclusion. He had never had the chance to invite a few people. Now that they said that, it seemed that he really didn't take them seriously.

Zhou Sichen continued, "Class monitor, there are also Huang Chutian and Long Xiangyue from our class, they also want to join your sect."

Lan Luoluo also nodded and said, "And Cui Yajie, she also wants to join the class monitor's sect."

Ji Lin was a little surprised when he heard this. Is his sect so popular? He hasn't even invited anyone yet, but so many people want to join.

In fact, Ji Lin underestimated himself and the vision of Zhou Sichen and others.

Those who can enter Shrek Academy to study have more or less some power in their families. Besides, Zhou Sichen and the others have excellent martial spirits. The martial spirits in Douluo Continent are inherited through bloodline, which means that no matter how bad Zhou Sichen and his family are, they can't be that bad. A family power that inherits high-level martial spirits is already a middle-to-high-level class in Douluo Continent.

Although he is not top-notch, that is precisely why they are better at betting. With Ji Lin's leading performance in the outer courtyard and his strong talent, plus Wang Qiuer, Wang Donger, and Xiaoxiao following him, each of them is a genius. Even Xiaoxiao and the others have joined Ji Lin's Zizai Gate. How could they not be tempted?

With Ji Lin's talent, he will at least be a Titled Douluo in the future. If they join a sect that will have a Titled Douluo in charge in the future, or if they join when the sect is first established, they will all be elders in the future. Moreover, they know Ji Lin, and given Ji Lin's character, he will definitely not treat them unfairly.

So, in fact, it was not just Zhou Sichen and a few others. Many students in the outer courtyard who knew that Ji Lin had founded a sect wanted to join Zizaimen and bet on Ji Lin.

In fact, Shrek Academy is a place where talents gather. Many people are scrambling to enter Shrek Academy just for its network of resources. Those with strong backgrounds can select outstanding disciples here and invite them to join the forces behind them. Those with shallow backgrounds can also find a satisfactory backer here to join.

Just like Ning Tian of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is unable to teach its own young master, so he has to come to Shrek to study. He comes here for the connections of Shrek Academy. Ning Tian has already won over two core disciples, Nanmen Yuner and Xie Huanyue, in the outer courtyard. After entering the inner courtyard, it is still unknown how many talents he can win over and bring back to the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.

Ji Lin was taught by Chi Yuan, and he did not come to Shrek Academy specifically to study. He came for these talented classmates.

Ji Lin took out the book of contract, and after Zhou Sichen and the other three signed the contract, he passed the Taixu sword energy to them.

As for Cui Yajie, Huang Chutian and Long Xiangyue whom they mentioned, Ji Lin will not let them go.

After returning to the academy, Ji Lin asked Lan Luoluo and Zhou Sichen to invite the people out.

In an open space next to Poseidon Lake, Cui Yajie, Huang Chutian, Long Xiangyue followed Lan Luoluo and Zhou Sichen to Ji Lin.

Huang Chutian and Long Xiangyue were excited, while Cui Yajie said to Ji Lin in a charming and seductive tone: "Class monitor, you finally remembered us. You invited Xiaoxiao and the others but didn't invite me, which made me lose confidence."

Ji Lin said: "I'm sorry, I wanted to invite you to join earlier, but I have too many things to do recently and I don't have time to worry about the affairs of the sect. But it's not too late now, come on, sign the contract and you will be members of my Zizai Sect."

"Contract?" Several people looked at the gorgeous book of contract in Ji Lin's hand with confusion in their eyes.

Ji Lin explained: "Just think of this as a soul guide. Its function is to sign a contract. Violating the contract will be punished. But don't worry, the contract is not strict. It just prohibits passing on the sect's skills to outsiders. We have all signed the contract."

After confirming that the contract was indeed not strict and was just the same rules that all sects had, the few of them signed their names and officially joined the Zizai Sect.

Ji Lin instructed Zhou Sichen and others to teach Cui Yajie and others to practice Taixu sword energy, while he took Wang Qiuer and the others back to the dormitory.

And when Ji Lin and his friends were having dinner together.

A guest came from outside Shrek City. He had white hair and blue eyes and looked very young. He was wearing a gorgeous black robe with gold embroidery. With his hands behind his back, he was suspended in the air, and his aura was not concealed. In the Poseidon Pavilion, Moon, who was lying on a recliner, had a gleam in his eyes and said, "A friend is visiting. It seems that today is a good day."

Xuan Lao beside Moon also felt the breath of the Titled Douluo coming from outside Shrek City and was about to take action.

Moon raised his hand to stop him and said, "Anyone who comes is a guest, and he has sent someone to deliver the visiting card in advance.

Moon took out a visiting card from his arms, on which was printed the logo of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy.

Xuan Lao was surprised and said: "People from the Sun and Moon Empire!"

Moon said: "The Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy has invited us to Shrek Academy for exchange and study several times. I think this time he is here for this matter as well. Please go and invite him in."

Xuan Lao was surprised and asked: "Enter the Sea God Pavilion?"

Mu Lao smiled calmly and said, "Yes, enter the Sea God Pavilion."

Although Old Xuan was surprised, he would not go against Old Mu's wishes. With a flash of light, Old Xuan disappeared from the spot. The next moment, he arrived outside Shrek City.

When Xuan Lao saw the figure in the air, he was also surprised and said, "It's you! Jing Hongchen!"

Yes, the person who came was the dean of the Sun and Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy and the head of Mingde Hall, Jing Hongchen.

Jing Hongchen smiled slightly and said, "Master Xuan, I have longed for Shrek Academy. Taking advantage of this opportunity to discuss the exchange and study between the two academies, I would like to come and visit Master Xuan and Shrek Academy."

Old Xuan said calmly: "In that case, you are a guest, please come in." As he spoke, he turned and walked towards the direction of the Sea God Pavilion.

Jing Hongchen followed behind Old Xuan, and was a little hesitant until they arrived at the Poseidon Pavilion. Shrek Academy has been famous for thousands of years, and he had also heard of the reputation of the Poseidon Pavilion.

He had never heard of outsiders entering the Poseidon Pavilion.

Elder Xuan walked to the door of the Sea God Pavilion, turned around and said jokingly: "What? The dignified Master of Mingde Hall dare not enter the door of our Sea God Pavilion? If so, then what are you doing here?"

Jing Hongchen raised his eyebrows. In terms of arrogance, he was even more arrogant than his grandson Xiao Hongchen.

In order not to weaken his reputation, he laughed and strode towards the Sea God Pavilion.

A smile appeared at the corner of Xuan Lao's mouth, and he secretly admired in his heart that Mu Lao had a good grasp of human nature! Just by simply inviting Jing Hongchen to enter the Sea God Pavilion, his momentum was greatly suppressed.

Entering the first floor of Poseidon Pavilion, Jing Hongchen kept looking around, with surprise showing in his eyes from time to time. Obviously, he has seen the extraordinary power of Poseidon Pavilion.

Mr. Xuan walked to the golden tree chair on one side of the first floor and sat down, making an inviting gesture to Jing Hongchen.

Jing Hongchen was not polite and sat down opposite Mr. Xuan with a smile.

Neither of them spoke first, they just sat there looking at each other, but the air instantly felt as if it was about to solidify.

“It seems that soul guides can indeed help soul masters to a certain extent. Your cultivation level is only around level ninety-three, yet you can sit so steadily in front of me.” Old Xuan said calmly.

Jing Hongchen smiled slightly and said, "I have always believed that the research on soul guides has just entered its initial stage. The future world will definitely belong to soul guides. One day, soul guides will no longer rely on the soul power of soul masters as a driving force. Then, the profession of soul master will eventually be eliminated. I wonder if Master Xuan believes this."

Mr. Xuan said coldly: "Whether I believe it or not, you won't see that day anyway."

Jing Hongchen said casually, "It doesn't matter whether I can see it or not. As long as it will eventually appear in my Sun Moon Empire, that's enough. It will definitely appear in my Sun Moon Empire. Xingluo, Tianhun, Douling and even your Shrek Academy are really far behind in soul guides."

Elder Xuan smiled, "Oh? Not so far? I don't think so. Let's talk about it when you can defeat our Shrek Academy with the difference in soul guides. In the just-concluded Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition, we only sent out half of our main players, but we still won the championship in the end. Facts have proved that, at least so far, your advantage in soul guides is not decisive."

What Xuan Lao didn't expect was that after hearing what he said, Jing Hongchen actually nodded in agreement, "You are right.

"I have also heard from our team leader about the process of this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition. We do have a gap with Shrek Academy in terms of training soul masters, but it is undeniable that soul guides have gradually narrowed the distance between the two sides. When I received your academy's expression of willingness to discuss exchanges and studies with our Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy, I was really happy, so I came here in person to show the sincerity of our Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy." Jing Hongchen said sincerely.

At this moment, Mu Lao's voice came out, "Bring him to the second floor."

Hearing this voice, Jing Hongchen's face changed.

Before this voice came out, he didn't feel anything. If the owner of this voice wanted to attack him, he wouldn't be able to react at all. This was something that even Master Xuan couldn't do.

Although Jing Hongchen had not yet reached the level of a Super Douluo in terms of cultivation, he still had some knowledge. He immediately realized that the outside world's perception of Shrek Academy had always been wrong. The strongest person in Shrek Academy was not Taotie Douluo Xuan Lao, but someone else.

Jing Hongchen said in a deep voice: "Master Xuan, I wonder who this senior is?"

Xuan Lao said calmly: "Just follow me up and you will know."

Under the leadership of Mr. Xuan, he quickly arrived at the second floor.

Jing Hongchen's attention was completely attracted by Old Mu. Old Mu's old face looked like he was in his twilight years, and there was no trace of powerful aura emanating from him.
