Qian Renxue Furiously Confronts Yu Xiaogang!

When Qian Renxue heard Yu Xiaogang's words, she froze on the spot.

She had wanted to help Tang San out of his predicament, but she hadn't expected Yu Xiaogang to set his sights on her instead.

At the thought of Yu Xiaogang's many glorious deeds, Qian Renxue frowned.

"Impossible!"

A guy like Yu Xiaogang wanted to take her as his disciple? Not a chance!

With Qian Renxue's status, what kind of teacher couldn't she find in Spirit Hall?

How could she possibly take a good-for-nothing who could never break through level thirty as her master?

It was a tale straight out of the Arabian Nights.

If Tang San hadn't been standing right there, and Qian Renxue hadn't feared that suddenly attacking would leave a bad impression on him,

She would have beaten Yu Xiaogang up long ago.

After being rejected twice in succession by two different people, Yu Xiaogang felt he was losing face and put on a stern expression.

"You little girl!"

"I've never seen you at Nuoding Junior Soul Master Academy before. You must be new, right?"

"Since you're new, it's only natural that you don't know me."

Yu Xiaogang cleared his throat, looked at Qian Renxue, and said, "Listen carefully!"

"The man standing before you is Yu Xiaogang, the Grandmaster renowned throughout the Soul Master World!"

"My Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul are more famous than you could ever imagine in your lifetime!"

"..." Tang San and Qian Renxue fell silent as they listened to Yu Xiaogang's shameless words. Neither of them had expected him to be so brazen.

Qian Renxue in particular was meeting Yu Xiaogang for the first time, and only now did she realize how disgusting he was. The disdain on her face was plain to see.

At the same time, a hint of sympathy entered her gaze as she looked at Tang San.

Little San, so this was your teacher before?

It really wasn't easy for you to become so strong under the tutelage of a good-for-nothing like him.

With my help in this life, you'll definitely become even stronger, and you won't have to struggle as hard as you did in your previous life.

With that thought, Qian Renxue became even more determined to stop Tang San from taking Yu Xiaogang as his master.

"What Grandmaster? You're nothing but a mediocre teacher!"

Qian Renxue gave a cold laugh, showing no intention of giving Yu Xiaogang any face.

"You're a good-for-nothing whose Innate Soul Power was only half a level. What makes you worthy of calling yourself a Grandmaster?"

Those words immediately caused an uproar.

The conversation among Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, and Qian Renxue had long since attracted quite a few onlookers eager for gossip, and now they had all heard what Qian Renxue said.

Whispers broke out among the crowd.

"What? That Grandmaster's Innate Soul Power was only half a level? Is that true?"

"That's not even as high as mine! Isn't that ridiculous?"

"Exactly! My Martial Soul is only a hoe, but my Innate Soul Power was at least level one. Yu Xiaogang isn't even as good as me?"

Listening to the discussions around him, Yu Xiaogang's face went from deathly pale to ashen, then suddenly flushed red.

His eyes were bloodshot, he panted like an ox, and his chest heaved incessantly.

His Innate Soul Power being only half a level was the pain of Yu Xiaogang's life.

Because of it, no matter how hard he cultivated, he could never break through level thirty in his lifetime and could only remain stuck at level twenty-nine.

It was also because of this that he devoted himself to studying theory, attempting to prove that there were no useless Martial Souls, only useless Soul Masters.

Now a teenage girl had suddenly torn open the scar he least wanted anyone to see, right in front of so many people. How could Yu Xiaogang not be ashamed and furious?

Yu Xiaogang opened his mouth to argue, but he didn't know where to begin.

The reason was simple.

It was an ironclad fact!

His Innate Soul Power really had been only half a level!

After taking a deep breath, Yu Xiaogang forcibly suppressed the anger in his heart and glared at Qian Renxue.

"What's your name? Is this how you speak to a teacher on your very first day here? Don't you know what manners are?!"

"So what if I have no Innate Soul Power?"

"There's nothing wrong with my Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul. You don't need particularly strong Soul Power to study theory!"

Qian Renxue found his words laughable.

"Oh? Is that so?"

"If I remember correctly, you'll never be able to break through level thirty in your lifetime. If you don't believe me, you can show your Soul Rings and prove it to everyone here."

"Right now, you should only be level twenty-nine."

Qian Renxue gave a cold laugh as she spoke, looking at Yu Xiaogang as though he were a piece of trash.

"What kind of teacher can someone who can only reach level twenty-nine at most be?"

"Once your student's Soul Power surpasses yours, what will you have left to teach them?"

"As the saying goes, a teacher teaches by word and example. You haven't even experienced cultivation beyond level twenty-nine, so how can you talk about studying its theory?"

"It's all nothing but idle speculation. Someone like you will only lead students astray!"

After hearing all that, Yu Xiaogang was left speechless.

Everything Qian Renxue had said was the plain, unvarnished truth.

But the truth hurt!

Yu Xiaogang's breathing grew heavier and heavier, like a bellows with a broken cord. His face was as red as a monkey's backside with anger, and he was just short of fainting on the spot.

"You... you!"

"What do you think you are?!"

Yu Xiaogang had completely lost his composure and gone mad. No longer caring about the dignity expected of a teacher, he roared, "My reputation is known throughout the Soul Master World for all to see. Even Spirit Hall recognizes my theories!"

As he spoke, he pulled a token from his robes.

"This is an Elder Token from Spirit Hall. Do you know what that means?"

"You're just a little girl, yet you dare question me?"

After he produced the token, quite a few students around them cried out in surprise.

Although they weren't entirely sure what the Elder Token represented, they did know about Spirit Hall.

Spirit Hall was one of the continent's top powers, a place many people dreamed of going.

The students looked at one another, a hint of doubt in their eyes, and began to discuss it.

"What's an Elder Token? Have you heard of it?"

"No, but I know Spirit Hall. It gives Gold Soul Coins to Soul Masters and is the strongest Soul Master organization on the continent!"

"Then if the Grandmaster has a token from Spirit Hall, does that mean his theories really are useful?"

"Hiss, looks like I misunderstood the Grandmaster before. I thought he had no ability at all."

Seeing that the students around him finally thought a little better of him, Yu Xiaogang's expression eased slightly, and he nodded in satisfaction.

He looked at Qian Renxue and said, "Well? Now you know how much weight my title of Grandmaster carries, don't you?"

"If you take me as your master now, I can still treat what you said earlier as the careless words of a child."

"Otherwise..."

Yu Xiaogang gave a cold snort. If he hadn't seen that Qian Renxue's talent was exceptional and wouldn't be much weaker than Tang San's, how could he have been so accommodating?

At the same time, he looked at Tang San and gave him what he believed to be a charming smile.

In Yu Xiaogang's view, now that he had shocked this bunch of country bumpkins by producing the token, there would be no further resistance to taking disciples.

Contrary to his expectations, Qian Renxue looked at the token in Yu Xiaogang's hand without the slightest change in her gaze.

"That's it?"
