Chapter 120 Past Grudges

"sister!"

Mizuze's face changed and his expression became gloomy: "Tianshui Academy finally has a chance to turn around. If we don't perform well in the next Soul Master Competition, we will be expelled from the four major element academies!"

"Yanmiao College is now gaining momentum. Without Bing'er and Shui'er's martial soul fusion skills, we will be replaced by them!"

The Four Elemental Academies are the academies for the four ultimate attribute soul masters supported by the Tiandou Empire. Each round (three sessions) of the Soul Master Competition will be reviewed again.

Tianshui College's performance in these two sessions was very poor, with one draw and one loss. If there is another draw or loss this round, there is a real risk of being replaced by Yanmiao College.

Mizuze continued: "If the four elements of Tianshui Academy are lost in your hands and mine, how should we explain to our dead mother!"

Shuirun gritted his teeth, his expression was very difficult.

She took over the position of dean of Tianshui College from her mother, and it is her responsibility to develop the college and maintain its ranking.

But she was also a mother and an aunt.

Watching her son's team win the championship and build a better future is what she looks forward to. At the same time, she also hoped that her niece could obtain a top-quality soul bone from Meng Yuan.

She knew only too well how much a soul bone could help an individual. Even if there are enough soul bones, it can help a Soul Douluo reach the end of the road to enter the realm of Titled Douluo.

On the other hand, the guilt towards Mengyuan and the eagerness to ease the relationship with her son are also what Shuirun wants to do at the moment.

Shuirun has only missed two things in her life.

The first is to marry Meng Yuan’s father, Meng Quanhai.

Meng Shenji's only son, Meng Quanhai, is a genius with the same ninth level of innate soul power as her.

It's a pity that he met unkind people. Meng Quanhai had an extreme personality and used the characteristics of the Meng family's martial arts to frequently devour soul masters for training. In the end, the boat capsized in a ditch and was seriously injured by the enemy's self-explosion, causing him to die.

Meng Quanhai's death saved the couple's relationship, which was about to reach zero. At least he died as a husband.

Shuirun has been with her day and night for decades, and it would be a lie to say that she has no feelings. In the end, she was kind-hearted and did not choose to separate from this man in his last days, allowing him to pass away decently in the company of his wife and son.

The second wrong thing Shuirun did was to abandon Meng Yuan and return to her parents' home alone after Meng Quanhai died.

It wasn't until Mengyuan was six years old that she stepped out of her husband's shadow and wanted to teach her son the right path. It's a pity that Meng Yuan was accepted as a disciple by Ju and Ghost Douluo on the day he awakened the martial spirit and took him back to the martial spirit city.

This prevented the mother and son from finding a chance to meet.

It's not like she hasn't written letters to her son over the years. But without exception, none of these letters received a reply. The older he got, the more eager he was to ease the relationship with his son.

Right now, letting his niece join his son's team is a good opportunity to ease the relationship with Mengyuan.

"Sister, have you finally thought about it?"

Shui Ze looked at Meng Yuan with an unkind expression.

Mizusawa was even more unhappy about his dead brother-in-law.

Arrogant, extreme, and domineering, completely opposite to his father's personality. He has always been resentful about his gentle sister marrying such a man, thinking that Meng Quanhai used some special means to force his sister to marry him.

Especially after Shuirun told him about the characteristics of Mengquanhai's martial soul, he hated Mengquanhai even more.

The Shui family's upbringing made it difficult for him to accept his brother-in-law's behavior. He relied on devouring other soul masters to advance himself as an evil soul master. If it weren't for this kind of relationship, he would have betrayed him and turned against him.

Even so, the Shui family has never interacted with the Meng family.

After all, it’s the son’s fault if he doesn’t teach his father.

Meng Quanhai's behavior was obviously approved by Meng Shenji.

This old guy looks kind-hearted, and it's hard to say that he was even crazier than his son when he was young!

This is how Mizusawa sees it.

Therefore, Shuizawa's feelings towards Mengyuan, his nephew, are also particularly complicated. In terms of blood, Meng Yuan also had the blood of the Shui family on his body, which made him unable to help but get close to him, but the attribute of this martial spirit was the death attribute of the Meng family.

Shaking his head, Mizuze sighed and said no more, waiting for his sister's decision.

After Shuirun thought for a while, he looked at Meng Yuan and asked, "Yuan'er, what's the reward for this soul master competition?"

Meng Yuan smiled: "I don't need soul bones. I will give the piece that belongs to me to cousin Bing'er. After all, blood is thicker than water. Moreover, Tianshui Academy has been involved in the internal affairs of Wuhun Palace and there is no way to escape."

“Why not get more involved and express your attitude?”

Giving a piece of soul bone to Shui Bing'er was a decision that Mengyuan could still make.

Among the candidates for this team.

Ning Rongrong has definitely inherited the position of sect leader, which means that all of Ning Fengzhi's top-quality soul bones will be inherited by her.

Although the soul bones used as prizes in the Wuhun Palace are good, they are definitely not as good as the inherited soul bones from the Glazed Sect.

Tianyue has two enshrined mantles to inherit.

Golden Crocodile Douluo is older than Qian Daoliu and is about to reach the end of his lifespan. Tianyue didn't need to wait too long to find the soul bone that was most suitable for the Golden Crocodile King's martial spirit.

Among the remaining players, Meng Yiran just makes up the numbers, and is hard enough to get into the first team. In addition, among the good candidates selected, Ye Lingling also had family heirloom soul bones as a guarantee, not to mention Yu Tianheng, these soul bones were not worth mentioning at all.

Without Meng Yuan, in order to win over Shui Bing'er, these people would most likely give up a piece of their soul bone to her, especially Ning Rongrong, who would most likely do it as a favor.

After all, Shui Bing'er is one of the rare genius soul masters who is not affiliated with a major power, and is very worthy of being won over.

As for whether she will join Wuhun Palace?

This is unlikely.

Obviously Mengyuan's route is to return to the tradition of Wuhun Palace, which is to maintain very good cooperative relations with all major forces. No matter where Shui Binger goes, she will never go to Wuhun Palace.

Wuhun Palace is currently facing a battle over its routes.

The first is the route that Bibi Dong has set now, which is to establish an academy, develop and strengthen himself, and then let all the soul master families from Wuhun Palace return with such force that all forces in the mainland can feel the ambition of Wuhun Palace.

Although her disciple Hu Liena behaved more softly, after awakening her martial soul, she took important measures such as recruiting talented disciples from major sects, and Hu Liena was allowed to retain them.

With Wuhun Palace's current size, which big force is not afraid of it.

The corresponding one is Mengyuan.

He very resolutely followed the original example of uniting the majority, and while retaining his own size, he increased his connections with the major sects. Coupled with his background, he was deeply supported by all parties.

When entering the internal battle of Wuhun Palace, it is inevitable that the losing party will be liquidated. If Mengyuan fails in this soul master competition, then the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect and the Blue Lightning Overlord Sect will be ready for a direct conflict with the Wuhun Palace.

If Mengyuan succeeds in this soul master competition, then he can be ready to pop the champagne. The mainland has returned to its original state, and everyone just needs to unite to suppress Xing Luo.
