Strength Clan

After a month of travel, the group finally arrived at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

The process was the same as in the original novel. Although Dai Mubai was cut off, he was still arrogant and beat the Xue Beng Prince, who had spoken rudely and insulted Shrek Academy, into a pulp.

Therefore, despite the interference of Xue Beng and Prince Xue Xing, and even with Prince Xue Xing asking Dugu Bo for support, Shrek Academy still failed to join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

After much deliberation, the teachers and students of Shrek Academy finally arrived at the Blue Tyrant Academy successfully merged with it, renaming it Shrek Academy.

The dean of the Blue Tyrant Academy is named Liu Erlong. She once formed the Golden Iron Triangle with Yu Xiaogang and Flender. Liu Erlong was the "Horn of Slaughter" among them. The power of the three's Martial Soul Fusion Skill "Golden Sacred Dragon" was comparable to that of Titled Douluo.

Liu Erlong's Martial Soul is the Explosive Fire Dragon. She has a fiery personality, formidable strength, and looks to be in her thirties. She is tall and voluptuous, with delicate features and a heroic and wild air about her.

Years ago, Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang had a complicated relationship. However, upon discovering that they were cousins, Yu Xiaogang ran away from their wedding.

He escaped!!

The Golden Iron Triangle disbanded, and Liu Erlong came to Heaven Dou City alone, founding the Blue Tyrant Academy. However, Liu Erlong never let go of her feelings for Yu Xiaogang.

With the arrival of the Shrek Academy, what followed was a melodramatic and unbelievable storyline.

When Liu Erlong first saw Yu Xiaogang, she was filled with excitement.

But she gradually sensed that Yu Xiaogang had changed. Not just changed a lot, but completely changed.

Yu Xiaogang not only has a woman's voice, with a high-pitched, soft tone and a slight upward inflection at the end of his sentences, but his appearance and mannerisms are also like a woman's.

His face was painted with rouge and white powder. When he walked, his waist swayed slightly, and he took small steps. When he sat down, his legs were together, and he rested his chin on one hand. When he spoke, his fingers would gently stroke the ends of his hair.

What Liu Erlong found even more unacceptable was that Yu Xiaogang stayed by Flender constantly. Wherever Flender went, Yu Xiaogang followed.

Liu Erlong was all too familiar with the way Yu Xiaogang looked at Flender.

That was exactly the same look I had when I looked at Yu Xiaogang back then—gentle, affectionate, and adoring, with an indescribable ambiguity.

Liu Erlong had a bad feeling.

After making numerous inquiries with Shrek's former teachers and students and learning the truth, she felt as if she had been struck by lightning.

An indescribable emotion plunged Liu Erlong into a state of emotional confusion.

She didn't know what to do, how to continue facing Yu Xiaogang and Flender, and was caught in an extremely agonizing emotional struggle.

Liu Erlong handed over all the school affairs to Flender and locked herself in her private courtyard on the back mountain, never again concerning herself with anything outside.

Unfortunately, Tang San missed out on such a wonderfully dramatic soap opera.

At this moment, Tang San and Xiao Wu had just set off from Nuoding City, traveling leisurely in a carriage towards Heaven Dou City.

Nuoding City is more than a thousand miles away from Heaven Dou City. Last time, it took Tang San more than ten days to travel there on horseback.

The carriage was much slower than a horse, and this time Tang San wasn't in a hurry to travel. He stayed in high-end hotels along the way, developed feelings for Xiao Wu, and spent almost a month eating, drinking, and having fun.

A month later, Tang San and Xiao Wu finally arrived in Heaven Dou City.

Tang San entered Heaven Dou City, and the two headed straight for the residence of the Strength Clan.

The residence of the Strength Clan is located in the south of Heaven Dou City. It covers a vast area, with thick and tall walls and an extremely heavy gate.

There are two orangutan-like stone sculptures standing in front of the door. There is a plaque hanging high on the door tower, with only a vigorous and powerful word "Li" on it.

The overall architectural style perfectly matches the characteristics of the Strength Clan, exuding a powerful and imposing aura.

At this moment, the mansion of the Strength Clan was already bustling with activity.

The gathering of the four clans is still two weeks away, and the government has already begun preparations in earnest.

Many carriages stopped in front of the gate, unloading boxes of wine, meat, and all sorts of supplies. Disciples were busy going in and out.

Two burly men stood in front of the door, broad-shouldered and thick-waisted, exuding a fierce aura.

Tang San walked to the gate, politely cupped his fists to one of the guards, and said, "Please inform Chief Tai Tan that Tang San from Nuoding City has come to pay a visit."

The gatekeeper sized up the two men. Seeing that Tang San and his companion were dressed simply but possessed outstanding temperament and extraordinary bearing, the gatekeeper dared not neglect them and hurriedly went inside to report.

A moment later, the gatekeeper came out, cupped his fists to Tang San, and said, "Honored guest, the clan leader invites you. Please follow me."

Tang San nodded and followed the steward into the mansion of the Strength Clan.

The interior of the mansion was even more magnificent than the exterior. The vast training ground was filled with a dazzling array of training equipment.

The gatekeeper led Tang San and Xiao Wu to a relatively private meeting room.

There were only three people in the reception room at that time.

Seated in the main seat was an old man, burly and broad-shouldered, with white hair and beard but vigorous spirit, and a pair of piercing eyes. He was none other than Tai Tan, the patriarch of the Strength Clan.

Standing to Tai Tan's left was a middle-aged man, in his forties, and slightly smaller than Tai Tan. That was Tai Tan's son, Tai Nuo.

Standing next to Tai Nuo was a young man, around twenty years old, with a square face, thick eyebrows and big eyes, and a physique much stronger than his peers. He was clearly Tai Long, the grandson of Tai Tan.

The moment Tang San stepped into the reception room,

Tai Tan rose from his chair, took a few steps to Tang San, then knelt on one knee, bowed his head, and clasped his hands in a fist salute. "This old Tai Tan greets Young Master."

Tang San was so shocked that he took half a step back. When did Tai Tan find out that he was Tang Hao's son?

Without a second thought, Tang San rushed forward, grabbed Tai Tan's arms with both hands, and pulled him up forcefully. "Chief Tai Tan, what is the meaning of this? Get up, this junior cannot accept this."

Tai Tan raised his head, his tiger eyes filled with excitement and reverence. "Young Master, there's no need for modesty. Half-Moon, Master visited the Strength Clan and personally apologized for the matter that implicated the four clans back then. Before leaving, Master also told me that you would be coming to the Strength Clan in a while and asked me to take good care of you. After all these years, Master has finally returned. You are Master's son, so you are my young master, which is only natural."

Tang San was speechless. Had Tang Hao changed his ways or what? He actually came to apologize in person?

Shaking his head, unable to understand and unwilling to think about it further, Tang San asked, "Where is he?"

Tai Tan then stood up, a hint of emotion in his voice. "Master said he will go to the other three races to apologize, and then after some time he may return to the sect to accept its punishment."

Tang San was even more puzzled. Had he said something that provoked Tang Hao?

He took a deep breath, suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and said humbly, "Senior Tai Tan, there's no need for that. This junior has no desire to have any connection with the Clear Sky Sect. You also don't need to call me Young Master; just call me Xiao San Brother. Calling me Young Master sounds awkward to me."

Tai Tan was silent for a moment, then shook his head. "This... this is two different things. You are the master's son, so you are my young master. Whether you acknowledge the Clear Sky Sect or not, this old servant calls you young master because I acknowledge you as a person, not because of the sect behind you."

Tang San was speechless. He was at his wit's end with Tai Tan's stubbornness. Oh well, whatever, let him yell if he wants.
