Chapter 208: Chapter 203: Gengxin City, Meeting the Titan
Gengxin City.
Located in the eastern part of the Antonio Province within the Star Luo Empire, it lies to the north of the Catastrophe Mountain Range. Beyond the mountains is the Hadrian Kingdom, which belongs to the Star Dou Empire. Further to the north is the Balak Kingdom, where Soto City is located.
Although Gengxin City does not boast outstanding Soul Master power, it holds a high status. The Star Luo Empire's formidable military strength is closely related to it, as military equipment production depends heavily on the Blacksmith Association. Furthermore, with its abundant rare metals, the city's financial power is among the top.
"Truly magnificent."
Li Yu, who possessed spatial powers, didn't need much time to reach Gengxin City. Even though he was unfamiliar with the area, it was easy to find with just a rough sense of direction.
This was a far cry from hidden sects like the Clear Sky Sect, whose location was scarcely recorded in books.
"This city wall, even compared to Heaven Dou City, is only stronger, not weaker!"
Li Yu marveled at the city walls of Gengxin City. After all, it was the headquarters of the Blacksmith Association, and such matters were done with professionalism.
However...
Such defensive structures held no significance for Li Yu.
He merely took a step forward and instantly appeared inside the city without causing a ripple.
Clang! Clang! Clang!
Not long after, the sounds of forging hammers filled his ears.
Blacksmith shops were everywhere along the streets.
"These 'small workshops' outside really don't have anything of value."
Li Yu scanned the surroundings and shook his head.
Although he wasn't very familiar with metals, based on [Yi] reactions and his spiritual observation, he could easily tell which metals he needed.
Moreover, everything he had obtained during the Soul Master competition, aside from what had been distributed, the soul bones he had kept had already been "fed" to [Yi].
Now, [Yi], if transformed into blades or swords, could easily cut through metal.
Even compared to the Dark Golden Claw, it wasn't lacking at all.
Thus, Li Yu standards were high.
"If only I had more time, I'd have to go and loot Sea God Island first," Li Yu murmured to himself.
It had been mentioned when Tang San and the others were refining their bodies in the tide at Sea God Island that there was a large amount of sunk silver present.
Li Yu had certainly not missed this information.
In theory, with his mastery over spatial power, time should never be a problem for him, even with the wedding date coming in less than half a month.
He should still have time.
However, Sea God Island, in some sense, was more like the personal domain of the Sea God.
The last time he had tried to merge the Oceanic Sky Shield, it had provoked the Sea God into acting personally.
Since then, the Sea God would surely hold a grudge against him.
Although Li Yu now possessed Semi-God level power, and the Sea God would be limited by the separation between realms, Li Yu was confident he could handle it.
But resolving this situation wouldn't be quick.
Furthermore, with Poseidon and possibly Tang Chen on Sea God Island, the matter wasn't easy to deal with.
While it wouldn't necessarily detain him, it could very well force him to retreat earlier than expected.
Escape.
That was something Li Yu couldn't accept.
So, everything would have to wait until after the wedding.
He was also curious to see if he could get something more from the Sea God.
The last event had made the Sea God hold a grudge against him, so naturally, Li Yu had also developed a grudge against the Sea God.
Additionally, Li Yu had also reflected on the Elemental Authority task in the Ascension to God schedule.
The "2" that had been completed likely came from the two soul bones of the Water Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King.
These contained the primordial powers of the two Dragon Kings, who were undoubtedly God-level beings during their lifetimes.
Thus, achieving the "2" progress was entirely possible.
Now, the issue was:
If the soul bones of the Water Dragon King and Fire Dragon King granted him the Water and Fire Elemental Authorities, then could the Sea God's Ocean Authority, included in the Water Element Authority, also count as part of the Elemental Authority?
This was a question that could only be answered through practice.
But Li Yu felt that, in all likelihood, it would be included.
After all, in the God Realm, there should be many God with conflicting Elemental Authorities, like the Sea God and Water God, or the Fire God and the Phoenix God...
"Li... Crown Princess?!"
A surprised voice suddenly interrupted Li Yu thoughts and brought his attention back.
Since he was merely visiting as a "guest," Li Yu hadn't recklessly released his spiritual power to "scan" the surroundings. He had only maintained a certain level of vigilance. If no malice was directed at him, he wouldn't indiscriminately spy on others.
Moreover, he had been thinking about other matters and hadn't noticed that he had run into a "familiar face" in Gengxin City.
"Titan Clan Leader? What's this?"
Li Yu was also surprised.
The "familiar face" was none other than the Titan Clan Leader.
Although they hadn't interacted much, Li Yu had seen him during the Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament's preliminaries and finals.
He was also the grandfather of Tyrone, who had originally represented Blue Tyrant Academy and later participated for Shrek Academy.
If it came down to it, Li Yu and this person had a bit of a small grudge, since Shrek Academy had been "sent off" by Li Yu personally.
However, Li Yu didn't harbor any hostility towards Tyrone, or even the Titan Clan Leader, because of Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the others.
If that were the case, during the Soul Master Tournament, he wouldn't have just "silenced" Dai Mubai mouth, but would have beaten them all up.
Furthermore, Tyrone had been studying at Blue Tyrant Academy before being transferred to Shrek, and he had no way of resisting.
More importantly, the Soul Master Tournament was irresistibly attractive to young soul masters. Without knowing anything about the situation, how could he have forced Tyrone, whom he didn't even know, to leave Shrek?
That would have been a thug-like action.
Therefore, when the Titan Clan Leader stepped forward to greet him, Li Yu maintained his usual calm, with only a hint of surprise at meeting a "familiar face" in a foreign place.
"Your Highness, although Tyrone studies in Heaven Dou, and the Titan Clan resides in the southern part of Heaven Dou City, I do not spend all my time there."
Seeing that Li Yu had not released any hostility, Titan Clan Leader relaxed a bit.
Because of Tyrone's previous connection to Shrek, he had been worried that Li Yu might hold a grudge.
Tyrone's Shrek Academy team had reached the fifth round, and the Titan Clan Leader had witnessed the final battle. Even now, he found it hard to believe the outcome.
After a pause, the Titan Clan Leader continued: "In addition to being the Titan Clan Leader, I am also the Vice President of the Blacksmith Association."
