Gu Yue patted Su Yi’s shoulder lightly and said with a smile, "Since the Palace Master wants you to participate and be the main force, I’m afraid no one will object. Li Shiran and Achu are just contributing their soul qualities."

Su Yi listened and immediately felt relieved. Li Shiran and Achu also seemed to relax a bit and gradually gained confidence.

Su Yi continued, "So, as long as we gather the highest possible soul qualities, with one person as the main force, we will have a great chance of success in alchemy and soul control!"

Old Man Gu Yue nodded gently, looking at the three people with a trustworthy gaze.

"The control of souls mainly relies on Sect Leader Su. As long as we can obtain comparable herbs and utensils for alchemy and crafting, the key factors are not only high soul quality, but also high soul energy, good materials, and utensils."

Afterwards, Old Man Gu Yue spoke slowly.

"All Yutian Palacedirect disciples are definitely Heavenly Grade souls, but not every team consists solely of Heavenly Grade souls. So, with four Heavenly Grade souls, plus individuals with high soul combat power, we can gain an advantage."

Su Yi nodded heavily and his face, illuminated by dim lights, became determined. After careful consideration, he was certain about winning in martial arts cultivation, and he already had candidates for alchemy and soul control. The only challenging part was crafting. It required someone with attributes of fire and metal, which was harder to find.

"Senior Gu Yue, who will participate in the crafting competition?"

"It will be Tian Chang. Over the years, I have owed him too much. He possesses both talents in alchemy and crafting, but he willingly took the responsibility of assisting me, which caused a delay in his own cultivation."

Suddenly, everyone present, including Su Yi, was shocked. Not many people in the world had a dual identity like Xi Wuqing.

Tian Chang is an alchemist and a craftsman at the same time, which means he must possess three attributes. To outsiders, he may seem like a mediocre person with mixed energy, but to those who practice cultivation, he is considered to have excellent talent.

In reality, it is an exceptional combination of energies. Plus, Tian Chang is a Heavenly Grade soul, so he should have been admired as a supreme figure. But now, he is not even comparable to Ji Feibao.

"Such an amazing physique exists in this world!" Su Yi couldn’t help but exclaim.

"When I found Tian Chang all those years ago, I was extremely surprised. The height he has reached today is also greatly related to me." Mentioning Tian Chang, Old Man Gu Yue felt a bit melancholic.

"Creak!"

As Tian Chang and Han Yurou walked in together, Tian Chang, although heavily injured, was largely unharmed under the careful treatment of Old Man Gu Yue.

Tian Chang’s face was filled with determination as he locked eyes with Gu Yue and said firmly.

"Master, please don’t say that. I have willingly assisted you with the affairs of Central Region Yutian Palace for so many years. Cultivating is not just about refining external things, but also cultivating the inner way!"

In Gu Yue’s yellowing eyes, Tian Chang’s figure gradually became clear, and a moist feeling surged up.

"Great! It is truly a lifetime blessing to have such a disciple! In this upcoming soul competition, I will definitely help you gain benefits and soar to new heights!"

Su Yi, on the side, also looked at Tian Chang with admiration. His initial indifference was no longer as disliked, and he smiled.

"Tian Chang, congratulations on having a good younger brother and a good Martial Sister!"

Tian Chang snapped back to reality, his thoughts racing. He looked at Li Shiran and Achu, both a little shy. Old Man Gu Yue stroked his beard and nodded in agreement.

Excited, Tian Chang rubbed his hands together and said, "That’s great! With this help, along with Sect Leader Su, we will definitely succeed!"

"Pfft!"

Standing beside them, Han Yurou, with fair skin like snow, hadn’t fully recovered from Wu Kun’s soul attack. Her face was pale, and her eyes were slightly cloudy. She cast a pleading look towards Su Yi.

"Are you feeling better now? You should lie down a little more." 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Han Yurou stubbornly shook her head, determination gleaming in her eyes. She said slowly, "Su Yi, I want to participate in the Yutian Soul Race too!"

"But you’re like this, do you really have to participate?" Su Yi still wasn’t completely at ease, not understanding why Han Yurou insisted on participating.

"Miss Han Yurou, aren’t you the jewel in the palm of the Wuliang School’s leader?" Gu Yue carefully observed Han Yurou, looking puzzled, and asked softly.

Han Yurou’s eyes showed a little surprise, she said softly, "Do you know me, senior?"

"Hahaha!"

An aged and deep laugh came from Old Man Gu Yue, he said, "I’ve known your father for a long time. When his precious daughter pays a visit, an old man like me must show some respect!"

Everyone knows that Wuliang School is a tremendously terrifying force, just like Sacred Mountain. But what sets them apart is that Wuliang School is an influential sect. The successors of the Sect Leader have a high chance of becoming the next pillar of the school. On the other hand, Sacred Mountain is a direct lineage force, where those below the Holy Lord are called Saint Child and Holy Maiden.

While Old Man Gu Yue was healing Han Yurou’s injuries, he could sense a familiar aura from her, which is why he said so.

"You’re actually the daughter of the head of Wuliang School!" Su Yi couldn’t help but glance at Han Yurou.

"Um… um! I didn’t mention it beforehand, I’m sorry." Immediately, Han Yurou’s bright eyes and white teeth revealed a hint of embarrassment.

"Miss Han is also a Heavenly Grade Soul Tamer from Yutian Palace. Sect Leader Su, for the final candidate, Han is the most suitable!"

"Really?"

Su Yi and Han Yurou both looked at Old Man Gu Yue, each with their own thoughts. Han Yurou’s radiant face was filled with excitement, while Su Yi’s brows were tightly furrowed.

"But Miss Han’s soul damage…" Su Yi thought it would be more appropriate to find another Heavenly Grade soul practitioner.

Immediately, Han Yurou grabbed Su Yi’s clothes, looking extremely anxious, and whispered, "No… I can do it. We still have three days, I can do it!"

"Are you sure?" Su Yi still had some worries between his brows.

Han Yurou nodded firmly and said, "That’s it! I promise we won’t hold you back! Tian Chang, you, me, Shi Ran, and Achu, the five of us will represent Lingyue Peak!"

Looking at the five people, Gu Yue was extremely satisfied with each of them. He couldn’t help but nod repeatedly and said with a smile, "It seems like Lingyue Peak will make a name for ourselves this year! Hahaha!"

"Sect Leader Su, there is something the old man wants to tell you! Come over here!"

After hearing this sentence, Su Yi’s heart suddenly skipped a beat. The two of them walked to the side under the gaze of everyone, and Su Yi respectfully said, "Senior, is there something important?"

"Palace Master has ordered that this time your performance must be outstanding enough, otherwise your and Shi Ran’s, Achu’s lives will be in imminent danger!"

"What!" Su Yi’s eyes suddenly burst into flames, and he yelled loudly, startling the four people behind him.
