Chapter 38: Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan
After entering the main campus of Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Yu Tianlin quickly noticed that there were no students walking along the main road.
Looking around, he soon spotted a large training ground ahead, surrounded on three sides by buildings. Shadowy figures could be seen through the windows, and faint voices drifted out, clearly showing that the students were gathered there.
As he drew closer, Yu Tianlin saw that the three buildings were engraved with three characters: Tianwei, Tianzhi, and Tiandou. At the same time, he could faintly hear teachers lecturing inside.
It was class time at Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
Yu Tianlin was speechless. The group of idiots he had seen swaggering down the mountain earlier had made him think the academy was on break today. He had not expected that they were simply skipping class.
Since there were lessons going on here, this was obviously the teaching area. As for the three buildings, Tianwei Building, Tianzhi Building, and Tiandou Building, they should correspond to the three levels within Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
It was probably similar to Thunder Academy, with levels twenty one to twenty five as the lowest level, twenty six to thirty as the middle level, and anything above thirty as the highest.
My big brother is currently level twenty eight, so he should be in the middle level. But which building is the middle level?
Yu Tianlin scratched his head. It did not really matter. If he did not know, he could just ask.
He wandered around the academy for a short while and soon found a teacher. Walking straight up, he bluntly gave his elder brother's name.
As expected of Yu Tianheng, a third generation direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. His reputation was well known even in Heaven Dou Royal Academy. The teacher immediately told Yu Tianlin that his older brother was in Class 1 of the Tianzi level.
After thanking the teacher, Yu Tianlin headed for Tianzhi Building, found the nameplate for Class 1, and waited outside the door.
Judging by the position of the sun, class should end soon. I should not have to wait long.
Sure enough, after about half an hour, the loud school bell rang.
The classroom door was pushed open. The teacher came out first. When she saw Yu Tianlin, who was wearing a Thunder Academy uniform, waiting by the door, surprise flickered in her eyes, but she did not say anything and simply left.
Once the teacher had gone, Yu Tianlin moved right up to the door and peered into the classroom. He quickly spotted a familiar figure and shouted, "Big Brother!"
His shout immediately drew everyone's attention. All the students turned their heads toward the entrance, including Yu Tianheng.
"Tianlin, what are you doing here?"
Seeing Yu Tianlin, Yu Tianheng was first stunned, then a rare smile broke through his usually stiff expression. He suddenly stood up from his seat and walked quickly toward Yu Tianlin.
So he came looking for Yu Tianheng.
Realizing this had nothing to do with them, the other students quickly lost interest and turned away. Only one person, after hearing the way Yu Tianlin had addressed Yu Tianheng, continued to watch the scene with great curiosity.
Yu Tianheng was about one point eight meters tall. Although he was a year younger than Yu Tianxin, he was slightly taller, and, to put it bluntly, a bit more handsome as well.
"Father came to see me last night and told me you enrolled at Thunder Academy," Yu Tianheng said as he walked out. He pulled Yu Tianlin a few steps away from the classroom door, then lightly punched him in the chest. "I was planning to visit you in the next couple of days, but I did not expect you to come first. You really are something. You have already reached the second ring at eight years old. That is much better than I was."
"I have just been cultivating seriously," Yu Tianlin replied with a smile. "Our academy happens to be on break for two days, so I came to find you. By the way, Brother, is Dad still here?"
Yu Tianheng shook his head. "Father told me about you last night, then left. He is busy with clan affairs and his own cultivation. It is better for him to return early."
Yu Tianlin was about to say something when a bright female voice cut in. "Tianheng, are you not going to introduce me?"
He turned toward the source of the voice and saw a girl in an orange Heaven Dou Royal Academy uniform, smiling as she walked over to the two brothers.
Her short dark purple hair draped neatly to her neck, giving her a refreshing, lively look. When her gaze fell on Yu Tianheng, a gentle light seemed to flicker in her green eyes.
Green eyes and purple hair.
This girl could only be Dugu Yan, Poison Douluo Dugu Bo's only granddaughter.
Those eyes and that hair were unique on the entire Douluo Continent, the product of the long term corrosion of the Jade Scale Serpent's venom.
I remember Tang San saying in the original story that you only need to guide those toxins into a Spirit Bone, but I have no idea how to actually do that.
What a pity. If I could solve this problem myself, not only could I save my future sister in law's life, I might also use that chance to get into Dugu Bo's Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and take whatever high grade immortal herbs I want.
What do you mean I do not know what they are? It does not matter. Just grab them first. I can always find someone to identify them later.
As soon as Yu Tianlin saw Dugu Yan, his thoughts drifted straight to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Yu Tianheng, however, was completely unaffected. He calmly introduced them, "Yanzi, this is my little brother, Yu Tianlin. He is only eight years old."
Snapping out of his wandering thoughts, Yu Tianlin glanced back and forth between the two of them.
"Tianheng… Yanzi…"
He deliberately stretched out his words, his expression clearly saying, I know what is going on.
"Ahem."
Seeing that look on his little brother's face, Yu Tianheng coughed twice in embarrassment. To cover it up, he reached out and tapped Yu Tianlin on the head, then said, "Tianlin, this is Dugu Yan, my good friend. You can call her Sister Yanzi."
Do not touch my head.
Yu Tianlin rolled his eyes inwardly. What if you accidentally break my ahoge?
"Tianlin, hello. I am Dugu Yan. My martial spirit is the Jade Phosphor Serpent, and I am a level twenty nine control type battle Spirit Master." Dugu Yan smiled as she greeted him. "I did not expect you to already be a student of Thunder Academy at only eight years old. That is really impressive."
"Hello, Sister Yanzi. You are very beautiful too." Yu Tianlin praised her without hesitation, then introduced himself. "My name is Yu Tianlin. My martial soul is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon, and I am a level twenty two power attack type battle Spirit Master."
After the introductions, Yu Tianlin felt a little puzzled. He turned to his big brother and asked, "Brother, I ran into Brother Tianxin today. He is level twenty eight now, so you should be about the same, right? Also level twenty eight. Does that mean Sister Yanzi is one level higher than you?"
Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan exchanged a glance. Then Yu Tianheng explained, "Yanzi is three years older than me, so it is normal for her spirit level to be higher."
"Oh, three years older."
Hearing that subtle age difference, Yu Tianlin nodded in understanding. His tone became meaningful again. "A woman three years older is like a golden brick in the hand. That age is just right."
"Cough, cough, cough…"
Yu Tianheng almost choked on his own breath, while Dugu Yan found the words very pleasing. Her impression of this newly met little brother of Yu Tianheng instantly improved.
