After taking in quite a few disciples, Tong Yuan was the first to be satisfied with Zhao Yun.
Whether it was talent or temperament.
Among the disciples in front, Zhang Ren had the worst aptitude.
In this life, if there were no fortuitous encounters, the peak of the first-rate was about to come to an end.
Zhang Xiu's aptitude was much stronger than Zhang Ren's. Although he was far inferior to Zhao Yun, he was still a first-rate talent.
However, due to family reasons, he had to stop halfway and go back to mourn for his father.
If he could not learn all of Tong Yuan's skills, his future achievements would be hard to say.
However, Tong Yuan had promised him that he would visit him every year and test him.
Judging from the situation in the past few years, this child was still considered hardworking.
"Whoa?"
When Li Yan heard this, he was also surprised."An 18-year-old super first-class, peak of the initial success stage in spear arts, and the most rare thing is that he has already made his own path in the initial stages of spear arts. No wonder you are so satisfied and optimistic about him! This talent! Tsk tsk! He's really not inferior to Feng Xian!"
"Haha! Isn't that right?"
Tong Yuan smiled proudly and continued,"It's good to go to Wu Hou and Lu Yu's side! He had long heard that that person was extraordinary in terms of martial arts, military strategy, and personality. He just didn't know if it was true or not!”
He was actually quite curious about Lu Yu.
"If you're curious, why don't you go and see for yourself?”
Li Yan smiled and said," I went to Ye City a few days ago. I heard that the Zhen family of Wuji is going to marry Lu Yu, the Marquis of Wu, and marry their daughter to Lu Yu as a concubine.”
"In addition, the great scholar Cai Yong is going to establish Donglai Academy in Donglai in two months. It should be quite lively there. We can go and take a look!”
I'm old!
He had been searching for a higher realm of martial arts. He had never had any clues or hope of reaching the Martial Saint Realm. Li Yan liked to walk around and take a look. Perhaps, he might find a way out with a flash of inspiration.
"Whoa?"
When Tong Yuan heard this, he sized up Li Yan with a surprised and playful expression and said,"I think you're just here to watch the show. You want to see Lu Yu and take him as your disciple, right?”
"Senior Brother, don't think you can hide it from me!”
"If that Lu Yu is really as powerful as the rumors say, then his martial arts talent is definitely not inferior to Zilong and Lu Fengxian! Or even more powerful!"
After all, Lu Yu was only 16 or 17 years old, but the outside world had already spread rumors about his abilities.
Especially in Jizhou.
"Haha! I can't hide anything from you, Junior Brother!"
Li Yan was not angry that his thoughts were exposed. He smiled happily and said,"I do have such thoughts!”
Then, he looked at Tong Yuan with a smile and said,""Junior Brother, don't tell me you don't have such thoughts!”
"You and I won't complain about having too many talented disciples!”
"There's no path ahead of martial arts. All we can do is nurture a few more outstanding disciples and leave behind inheritance and hope!”
Perhaps one of his disciples could break through to the Supreme Martial Saint Realm?
At that time, even if they were not the ones who broke through, they would still be proud!
"Then let's go and take a look!"
Tong Yuan nodded.
"Are you going to meet up with your little disciple? If he went now and sped up, he should be able to catch up!”
Li Yan asked with a smile.
"Forget it!"
Tong Yuan shook his head and refused. He and I feel uncomfortable staying with me!”
"Moreover, that kid might have followed me for too long! Her personality was also a little honest and she lacked some opinions!”
"I drove him away and sent him to the army not only to break through, but also to train his will and courage in the army! Train his subjective judgment!"
"Otherwise, his future path of martial arts will not be long!”
On the path of martial arts, one's willpower and one's breath were what mattered.
He couldn't lose his heart.
Otherwise, there was no hope of breaking through to the peerless grandmaster realm.
"Sigh! Every family had their own problems! They all had such shortcomings! Feng Xian, that brat, was the same! He was fine with everything else except that he was too arrogant and impatient. Otherwise, the chances of him breaking through to the Supreme Martial Saint Stage would be much higher, right?”
Li Yan shook his head helplessly.
Lu Bu was the most talented martial artist he had ever seen.
Moreover, this kid was born with divine strength, and his physique was different from ordinary people. He was exceptionally strong.
Not to mention his martial arts aptitude.
"Isn't that so?"
Tong Yuan nodded.
On the same day, the two brothers quietly set off from Chang Mountain. They didn't meet up with Zhao Yun, but chose another route and rushed to Donglai at an unhurried pace.
.......
Luoyang, in the General's Mansion.
"Trash! That Guan Hai is trash!"
"They gave him detailed information and even provided him with such a perfect plan, but he still suffered a crushing defeat?”
"Why doesn't he just die?"
"If I had known that he was so useless, I would have sent someone to take care of him myself and take this great credit!”
General He Jin suffered a crushing defeat at the hands of Guan Hai and Lu Yu, losing tens of thousands of elites.
Then, he was frightened by Lu Yu and retreated back into Mount Tai.
Instantly, He Jin was furious!
"Great General, why are you so angry?"
Yuan Kui, who was sitting at the side, said indifferently,"No matter what, haven't we achieved part of our goal?”
"At least, from the situation in the past two months, Lu Yu has indeed been held back by the Yellow Turban Army! It was impossible to deal with the Yellow Turban Army in the short term! Naturally, it was impossible for him to return to Luoyang!”
He felt that this was enough for the time being.
It was unrealistic to kill Lu Yu so easily.
"That's true!"
When He Jin heard this, his anger lessened a little. Then, he said gloomily,"But no matter how I look at it, Lu Ziyi did it on purpose.”
"Judging from his initial battle with Guan Hai, if he's determined to take care of Guan Hai, it shouldn't be difficult to eliminate the Qingzhou Yellow Turbans, right?”
"At most, it'll just take a little more effort!”
This brat's military ability was really strong.
The more it was like this, the more He Jin was afraid of it.
"Yes!"
Yuan Kui nodded his head affirmatively. But that's not important!"
"It only shows that he is smarter than we thought. It also shows that he really doesn't want to be our enemy and doesn't want to get involved in Luoyang's disputes!”
"This is enough!"
"For the time being, we don't have to pay attention to him!”
"I believe that he will deal with the confrontation with the Yellow Turban himself!”
Yuan Kui felt that it was fine for the opponent to admit defeat.
In the future, he might still be able to use a few of them.
It would be even better if I could make it mine.
As for whether he could control it?
Yuan Shu was quite confident in himself.
"Alright!"
He Jin frowned slightly. Does Guan Hai still want to support him?"
"Of course!"
Yuan Kui nodded without hesitation."Anyway, it won't cost much money and energy. I'll just treat it as an idle move! It was not bad to bring more trouble to Lu Yu!”
"In fact, we can actually earn a lot from this!”
"That Guan Hai looted so much gold, silver, treasures, antiques, calligraphy, and paintings. We can totally exchange some inferior and obsolete armaments for them! Presumably, the Great General wouldn't mind earning a little more, right?”
Yuan Kui was the one who said that he would not rise without benefits.
He had schemed against others and turned them into a tool for him to deal with others. He even wanted to exploit the benefits from this tool.
How ruthless.
"Haha! That's true!"
When He Jin heard this, he was also happy.
As the Great General, he controlled many of the imperial court's armies, so eliminating armaments was naturally not a problem.
He liked money too.
.......
In the Imperial Palace.
When Emperor Liu Hong received the news that Lu Yu had defeated Guan Hai in the first battle of Qingzhou and wiped out more than 20,000 Yellow Turban bandits, a smile appeared on his face.""As expected, Lu Ziyi's military ability never disappoints me!”
However, he remembered that Lu Yu had been holed up in Donglai for the past two months. Other than sending troops to eliminate the bandits in Donglai, he did not do much! "But why didn't he follow up the victory and eliminate the Qingzhou Yellow Turban remnants in one go?" Did he do it on purpose again?"
Father, what do you think?"
As he spoke, Tian Zi looked at Zhang Rang.
When Zhang Rang heard this, he immediately replied with a smile,"Your Majesty! This servant feels that this is very normal!”
"After all, His Majesty appointed him as the Governor of Donglai Prefecture. Naturally, he had to take care of Donglai Prefecture first. Only then would he not let down the Emperor's grace!”
"In addition, the terrain of Mount Tai is complicated and the mountain roads are rugged. It won't be easy for the Yellow Turban bandits to hide in the deep mountains and attack!”
"Aren't the Black Mountain Bandits the same?”
"Moreover, the East Vanquishing General only has a few thousand cavalrymen under his command. As far as this servant knows, the Great General has not allocated a single soldier or grain to the Imperial Court.”
"Although, according to the intelligence, tens of thousands of infantry have been recruited and trained recently, it's not that easy to form an army and form combat strength!”
"It takes time to gather military resources! Your Majesty, why don't you give the East Vanquishing General more time?”
"Anyway, His Majesty will always be invincible, right?”
He said so much in one breath.
Tian Zi even analyzed it thoroughly.
Obviously, Zhang Rang had received a lot of benefits from Lu Yu in the past two years.
Otherwise, he would not have bothered to help Lu Yu in front of the emperor.
