Chapter 251 Before the Competition

"No." Zhang Peng shook his head, walked to Wang Lin and signaled Wang Lin with his eyes.

Wang Lin understood, and released his mental power to directly block Wang Songguo next to him, ensuring that Wang Songguo would not hear his conversation with Zhang Peng.

"The church has already determined that Xu Tianran will take advantage of this continent-wide youth soul master competition to capture the younger generation of the three empires and use this as an excuse to start a war." Zhang Peng said with a serious face.

"This is forcing the three empires to unite and resist Sun and Moon." Wang Lin was not surprised as he had guessed it a long time ago, but he was still confused.

After all, attacking the younger generation of the three empires at the Continental Youth Soul Master Competition is not just a matter of offending the three empires.

You should know that this competition has been restructured, and not only academies but also sects are participating in this competition.

Most academies were dependent on the empire, so if they offended the Sun-Moon Empire that was about to start a war, they would have offended it. However, sects were different from academies in that they were relatively independent.

"You are so concerned, what are your plans?" Zhang Peng asked. Wang Lin had asked him to keep an eye on the movements of the Holy Spirit Church since he came back.

"I have already discussed this with my master." Wang Lin said in a deep voice. In order to interfere with the future direction of the war, even if he is the son of the Holy Spirit Church, it is difficult for Kong Deming's apprentice to influence Xu Tianran's decision.

However, just because he can't do it doesn't mean that Long Xiaoyao can't do it. He has already discussed this matter with Long Xiaoyao.

The old black dragon also agreed and would find a way to make the Sun-Moon Empire's target choose the Star Luo Empire when the war broke out.

"It's good that you know this, but you are now Kong Deming's apprentice. How about participating in the Mingdu Soul Mentor Elite Competition held by the three major underground forces?"

Zhang Peng asked. The three major underground forces he mentioned, in addition to the Xishui League, there are also the Aodu Chamber of Commerce and the Pingfan League.

The Xishui League is involved in drug and arms trafficking, and also does human trafficking on the side. The Aodu Chamber of Commerce is involved in various shady activities such as collecting protection fees, assassinations, thefts, etc. The Pingfan League is involved in the pornography industry.

All I can say is that each one is more powerful than the other. These three forces have all grown stronger with Xu Tianran's tacit approval.

“No.” Wang Lin refused directly. He had some impression of the Mingdu Soul Instructor Elite Competition. In the original novel, Huo Yuhao seemed to have participated in this competition.

"The prize is a ninth-level soul guide!" Zhang Peng tempted. Wang Lin shook his head and said, "I have one, it's not bad."

"Zhongli Wu hopes you will participate." Seeing Wang Lin refuse again, Zhang Peng said in a deep voice.

"Zhongli Wu, is he still short of a ninth-level soul guide?" Wang Lin asked doubtfully.

"Of course not. The winning force of this competition can obtain the smuggling rights of soul guide metal from the royal family."

Zhang Peng shook his head and explained, "Because the sale of soul guide metals is strictly prohibited by the Sun-Moon Empire, the price of rare metals remains high, and the smuggling of rare metals has become an extremely profitable way to make money.

Xu Tianran is not the only one who wants this big cake. The nobles and the military also want to get involved. How do you think the Aodu Chamber of Commerce and the Pingfan League can compete with the Xishui League? "

“Really?” Wang Lin looked thoughtful. Interesting. It seemed that in this competition, Xu Tianran not only wanted to start a war, but also wanted to unify domestic forces.

"I'll think about it, Uncle Zhang. There's still a long time before the competition."

"Okay, think about it carefully." Zhang Peng didn't ask any more questions. After he finished speaking, he didn't stay for too long.

After seeing Zhang Peng off, Wang Lin removed the mental shield against Wang Songguo and lay on the recliner, rubbing his brows and falling into deep thought.

After a few days, Wang Lin finally decided to participate in the Mingdu Soul Mentor Elite Competition. It was not because he wanted to shine for Xu Tianran. Wang Lin mainly wanted to see the situation of the Aodu Chamber of Commerce and the Pingfan League.

Ever since Wang Lin agreed to participate in the Mingdu Soul Mentor Elite Competition as a contestant of the Xishui League, no other major events happened in the following few months.

Wang Lin's life trajectory was to go back and forth between the Worship Hall, the Courtyard and the Mingde Hall, during which time he attended high-level meetings of the Sun and Moon Empire.

Because Long Xiaoyao agreed to take action on the Xingluo battlefield, the original plan to attack the Tianhun Empire was changed to a surprise attack on the Xingluo Empire.

It was almost as Wang Lin expected. The battlefield of the Tianhun Empire was handed over to the Holy Spirit Church for interference to prevent support for the Xingluo Empire when a war broke out.

It was not until a month before the competition that Wang Lin's regular life was disrupted, because Xiao Hongchen was going to participate in the Continental Youth Soul Master Competition as a student of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy.

So Kong Deming gave Xiao Hongchen a month's vacation so that he could prepare for the competition. Wang Lin also benefited from Xiao Hongchen's blessing and was given a month's vacation.

For a moment, Wang Lin, who had nothing to do, had not yet had time to enjoy his hard-earned vacation, when Meng Hongchen suddenly came with two uninvited guests.

Although the two people who followed Meng Hongchen into the courtyard were covered in black robes, Wang Lin only needed to use mental detection to detect their identities.

Click!

Wang Lin closed the wooden door of the courtyard with his telekinesis, and a capable female voice came from under the black robe.

"Hey, Wang Lin, it's been almost half a year. Have you forgotten something?" the female voice asked in a questioning tone. At this time, two uninvited guests also took off their black robes. They were Ning Tian and Wu Feng.

“I didn’t forget. I didn’t say the specific time.” Wang Lin waved his hand and said that he really didn’t have time to visit the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect in the past six months.

His plan was to go to the Douling Empire during the competition, he really hadn't forgotten it.

After these words came out, Ning Tian held Wu Feng down, looked at Wang Lin and said, “But the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect can’t wait any longer.”

Without the Qiluo Tulip, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tower would never be able to break through the seventy-ninth level. It would have been better if there was no hope in the first place.

But now that the Qiluo Tulip appeared before them, hope was right before their eyes. The Jiubao Liuli Sect had endured for half a year and could no longer hold back.

“But I don’t need you to deal with the Holy Spirit Church now.” Wang Lin waved his hand and Ning Tian couldn’t help but look relieved.

The next second, Wang Lin opened his mouth and said, "But I have time to go to the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect now. How many people from the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect are here this time?"

"Besides us, there is another elder." Ning Tian's eyes lit up, "But she can't come in."

"If you can't come in, how dare you come in!?" Wang Lin was stunned and looked towards Long Xiaoyao's room.

"My grandmother told us to go in without worry, saying that the strong people in the yard would not make things difficult for us." Wu Feng added.

"Master, just let in the ones you know." After hearing Wu Feng say that, Wang Lin knew that Old Black Dragon must know Wu Feng's grandmother.

“Okay!” A dull voice came from Long Xiaoyao’s room. Wang Lin could feel the voice coming from Long Xiaoyao quietly dissipating.
