Chapter 78

Those few Yutang men were already stunned, "Senior Tisen actually lost, how is that possible? Senior Tisen is one of the few Fusion Realm powerhouses in our division, yet he was defeated by a Probe Realm."

Upon hearing these words, Tisen, the Fusion Realm youth, had a fierce look in his eyes, "Again," he said, charging at Lu Yin with a raised hand, unleashing the Heavenly Beast Claw.

Lu Yin narrowed his eyes. This person's Heavenly Beast Claw was even more powerful than Mono, who had recovered to the Fusion Realm. Yutang indeed had many strong individuals, living up to its reputation as the elite concentration camp of the Great Yu Empire. However, with his current Five Star Heavenly Palm, he was not afraid of such a powerhouse. Just as he was about to make a move, a massive force swept across the crowd.

This force was also at the Fusion Realm, but it made Lu Yin's hair stand on end and his face change in an instant. He was not a match for this force. Who was this person?

Tisen's figure suddenly halted, his face pale. He slowly turned around, and in the distance, a figure was walking over.

Following Tisen's gaze, Lu Yin saw a young man, probably around Tisen's age or even younger. But the moment he saw this person, Lu Yin knew that this was the owner of the force he had just felt. A young Fusion Realm powerhouse, whose strength far exceeded Tisen. His Five Star Heavenly Palm could handle Tisen, but against this person, he would be no match.

Lu Yin's expression turned serious. This was the most terrifying Fusion Realm powerhouse he had encountered so far.

"Heaven, Hall Master Tiansheng," Tisen said with fear and trepidation.

Hall Master? Lu Yin was puzzled. He did not know much about Yutang, as the Great Yu Empire had sealed off information about it. He had asked Gules and the others before, but even they were not clear. They only knew that Yutang gathered the strongest young talents of the empire, but they did not know how it was divided or if there was a ranking.

"Tisen, you're getting smarter, even learning to ambush. Why don't you try ambushing me and see if you can defeat me? If you do, this Hall Master position is yours," the Fusion Realm youth Tiansheng said, nodding friendly at Lu Yin before turning to Tisen with a cold voice.

Tisen's face changed drastically, and he quickly said, "Hall Master, I didn't mean to, I just saw—"

Before he could finish, Tiansheng interrupted, "I saw everything clearly. Your target wasn't that girl, but the Purple Mountain King. Who gave you the nerve to ambush the Purple Mountain King?"

Tisen did not answer, beads of sweat rolling down his forehead.

Tiansheng casually waved his hand, and a gust of wind transformed into an invisible beast claw, striking Tisen's chest and sending him flying. "Get out."

The other Yutang men quickly left, not even daring to look back.

The moment Tiansheng made his move, Lu Yin's heart skipped a beat. That was the Heavenly Beast Claw, but unlike Tisen, Tiansheng had cultivated it to a profound level, able to form it with every movement without needing to extend his palm. This person was an absolute expert.

"Yutang is internally managed by students, divided into five halls, spread across the first ring. He is one of the hall masters, one of the five great experts of Yutang, Tiansheng," Bronson whispered behind Lu Yin.

Lu Yin's eyes flickered. The five great experts of Yutang. He remembered Gules mentioning that her brother was one of the top experts of Yutang. Could he also be a hall master?

"Who are the other four?" Lu Yin asked.

Bronson whispered, "Suz, Gurbach, Rockang, and Huozhong. Together with Tiansheng, they are the five hall masters of Yutang, the best of the empire's young generation."

Lu Yin nodded. At that moment, Tiansheng finished dealing with Tisen and turned to face him, apologizing, "I failed to discipline him properly. Is the Purple Mountain King hurt?"

"Hall Master Tiansheng is too polite. We were just sparring," Lu Yin said. Although Tiansheng was just a Yutang student, as a hall master, he had absolute power within Yutang and could not be underestimated.

Tiansheng sighed, "I can tell the difference between an ambush and a sparring match. In recent years, Yutang has seen a decline in talent, producing only such disgraceful individuals. I heard that during this Earth trial, Yutang's people lost all their dignity, making the Purple Mountain King laugh at us."

Lu Yin smiled, "The final battle was only won with the help of Yutang's experts. Hall Master Tiansheng is too modest."

Tiansheng smiled and exchanged a few polite words with Bronson before turning to Bai Xue, "Miss, I represent the students of Yutang to formally apologize for what happened. I saw it through the surveillance. I'm sorry."

Bai Xue, with her aloof personality, nodded without saying much.

Lu Yin was curious, "Hall Master Tiansheng, Yutang has 108 forms of the Heavenly Beast Claw. May I learn them?"

Tiansheng nodded, "Of course. From the moment the Purple Mountain King arrived on the Capital Star, you are one of us in Yutang. I can allow you to learn the first five forms."

Lu Yin frowned, "Only the first five forms?"

Tiansheng smiled, "The Purple Mountain King may not know, but the Heavenly Beast Claw is the pinnacle combat technique of Yutang and the Great Yu Empire. Ordinary people cannot learn it. Joining Yutang only gives you the qualification to learn. To truly learn it, you need the hall master's approval. One hall master's approval allows you to learn the first five forms, three hall masters' approval allows you to learn the first ten forms, and five hall masters' approval allows you to learn the first twenty forms."

Lu Yin was helpless. "There's such a rule."

"Generally, Yutang's Probe Realm students can only learn the first five forms. The Heavenly Beast Claw is not easy to master. For Probe Realm students, five forms are enough. Only those who reach the Fusion Realm can learn the first ten forms, and the stronger Fusion Realm elites can learn the first twenty forms. Tisen, for example, has learned the first twenty forms but has only comprehended thirteen. It will take a long time to fully comprehend all twenty forms," Tiansheng explained patiently.

Lu Yin remembered that Las had learned five forms, Mono probably ten, and Tisen about thirteen. He had learned seven forms from Mono, out of a total of 108. He had barely scratched the surface.

"Hall Master Tiansheng, how many forms have you learned?" Bai Xue suddenly asked.

Everyone looked at Tiansheng.

Lu Yin was also very curious. Tiansheng's casual use of the Heavenly Beast Claw far exceeded Tisen, and to be a hall master and make Tisen and others dare not resist, he must be no ordinary person.

Tiansheng smiled faintly, "Forty-three forms."

Lu Yin and the others' expressions changed. A terrifying number, nearly half. This was a hall master, no wonder he far exceeded Tisen and others.

"Actually, among the five hall masters, Rockang has comprehended the most, forty-nine forms, making him the strongest in the Heavenly Beast Claw among us," Tiansheng said.

"If I want to learn all the forms of the Heavenly Beast Claw, what should I do?" Lu Yin asked.

Tiansheng shrugged, "Defeat one of us and become a hall master. Then you can have access to all of Yutang's resources." He waved his hand, "I have some matters to attend to. I must go. Good luck to all of you. By the way, after reshaping, everyone must join Yutang. If you have no other choice, you can join my hall, and I will take good care of you."

"Have we already been reserved by the Royal Court's Thirteenth Team? Can we still join Yutang?" Bai Xue asked.

Tiansheng smiled, "The Royal Court's Thirteenth Team and Yutang do not conflict. Yutang is a place for learning, while the Royal Court's Thirteenth Team is a place for battle." With that, Tiansheng left.

At that moment, Zhang Dingtian's low roar also disappeared. Soon, Bai Xue stepped into the reshaping pool.

Soon, Bai Xue also emitted a painful "shenyin," her voice much more pleasant to the ear than Zhang Dingtian's. It made Lu Yin feel restless, "Bronson, who is reshaping them? A man or a woman?"

Bronson said calmly, "No one, they have to endure it themselves."

Lu Yin nodded. That was better. If a man was reshaping Bai Xue, he would be unhappy, even though Bai Xue was not his woman, he just didn't want her to be taken advantage of by others.

"By the way, Shiwu Zang, which team has chosen you?" Lu Yin remembered the monk and asked.

Shiwu Zang slowly raised his head, his voice hoarse, "Zhang Dingtian, chosen by Team Five. Bai Xue, chosen by Team Six. I, will join Team Eleven."

Lu Yin pondered. Bronson had introduced him to the teams. The captain of Team Five was Huo Qingshan, the head of the Huo family in the Great Yu Empire and the father of Huo Xiaoling, the middle-aged man with red hair in the imperial hall. The captain of Team Six was Tao Xiang, the lolita. The captain of Team Eleven was the bald blind monk, named Blind Monk.

It was normal for Huo Qingshan to choose Zhang Dingtian, as Zhang Dingtian had cross-realm combat power and could join the Royal Court's Thirteenth Team.

It was also normal for Shiwu Zang to be chosen by the blind monk Blind Monk. Their appearances were both intimidating, and Xikemaluo had mentioned that Shiwu Zang's perseverance had caught the interest of certain people, likely Blind Monk.

But why was Bai Xue chosen by Tao Xiang? The lolita had left a deep impression on Lu Yin.

Never mind, it had nothing to do with him. Since they had left Earth, their fates could only be controlled by themselves.

There was one thing that was a pity. The Starry Sky Academy was about to reach the Canglan territory. Zhang Dingtian and the others would need to reshape and start training again, clearly missing out on the opportunity. What a pity.
