Liu Erlong was in a bad mood at the moment, so he naturally seemed absent-minded when he answered.

After all, she is actually not that afraid of Dugu Bo - they are all people with backgrounds and backing, so who doesn't have some confidence? As long as she doesn't provoke this Titled Douluo head-on, he probably won't really care about her.

How can she think about trying to please anyone right now? All she can think about is one word: Annoying!

But as soon as this thought crossed her mind, she suddenly reacted, her eyes lit up, and she asked with a bit of excitement, "Senior Poison Douluo, you just said... that you were entrusted by Dean Ye? Then do you know where he is now?"

Dugu Bo The corners of his mouth twitched slightly - just now he turned a blind eye to himself, but now he even uses honorifics like "senior".

I have to say, women are really fickle!

He had no intention of arguing with a junior like Liu Erlong about his attitude. To be more precise, he had no intention of offending anyone who might be related to Ye Feiyang.

Looking at Liu Erlong's nervous and eager look, Dugu Bo sneered secretly in his heart: It seems that if there is no involvement between her and Dean Ye, no one will believe it, right?

In this case, he has nothing to hide - after all, this is not something that needs to be kept secret.

"I just separated from him not long ago. They had been staying at Falling Moon Forest."

Liu Erlong immediately chased after him and asked, "Then do you know when they will come back? Why have they been gone for so long? Even if they hunt Soul Beast, it won't take so long, right?"

Dugu Bo glanced at her, with a hint of impatience in his tone - this woman had too many questions, and he was not interested in being the microphone.

"You are not from the Supreme Academy. Why are you asking so much?" He said calmly, "Dean Ye is my granddaughter's teacher. It is not convenient for me to disclose his whereabouts to unrelated outsiders. If you really want to know, wait until he comes back and ask yourself."

Liu Erlong When he heard this, he pointed at himself angrily and raised his voice a little higher. "I? An outsider? Irrelevant?"

Damn it, the two of us have already had a relationship, okay?

But can you say this? Obviously you can't...

It's so frustrating!

Tang Yuehua looked at Liu Erlong's deflated appearance and couldn't help but cover her mouth and snicker. She felt inexplicably comfortable - finally someone could cure her bad temper.

Dugu Bo still looked calm and asked, "Huh? What, I made a mistake? Are you not an outsider?"

He thought to himself: If you dare to admit having an affair with Dean Ye, I will tell you everything I know now, but do you dare?

Liu Erlong was speechless when asked. He really didn't dare to admit it. He could only suppress his anger and try to stay calm. "Then you should know when he will come back, right? You can always tell me this, right?"

Tang Yuehua wanted to ask several times, but was overtaken by Liu Erlong. Moreover, Liu Erlong asked all questions that she also wanted to know. She couldn't help but glared at Liu Erlong in displeasure: You are the only one who stands out, so you have to say everything!

In contrast, Lan on the side was full of anxiety and her body was trembling slightly. She glanced at Dugu Bo secretly from time to time, fearing that Titled Douluo would suddenly attack her.

But she couldn't help but want to know the news about Ye Feiyang, so she could only hold on and not leave - this was simply gambling with her life!

Dugu Bo can talk so much, he is already very easy to talk to. He was in a hurry to go back to practice <Detoxification Secret Records> and had no intention of continuing to pester. His tone became even more impatient. "I don't know, don't ask me again. In addition, I will be in charge of the Supreme Academy from now on. Don't bother me with trivial matters. If you really have troubles that can't be solved, come to me again."

After saying that, he turned around to leave. After taking two steps, he turned back and looked at Tang Yuehua: "By the way, Head of Tang Clan, where is there a vacant room in the college? I need to stay."

As for becoming a teacher, let's wait until Ye Feiyang comes back. Right now, I am taking advantage of this time to concentrate on practicing the exercises and solve the problem of toxin backlash.

Tang Yuehua pointed in the direction of the dormitory area. "That's the dormitory area over there. There are staff responsible for cleaning. You can ask them and you should be able to find a suitable room."

She didn't think that Dugu Bo could lie - after all, it was Titled Douluo, so he shouldn't be able to do such things as cheating on food and housing.

Dugu Bo was about to leave when he was suddenly stopped by someone - it was Lan.

Lan finally plucked up the courage to speak: Since we know that Dugu Bo is going to live here forever, why not just break it down, ask what you want to know, and leave!

"Poison Douluo Your Majesty, can you tell me... where exactly Feiyang and the others went?"

Dugu Bo stared at her with interest - he knew that Mingdu was pretending not to see through her identity, but she actually dared to call him out?

He stopped and asked, "Oh? Who are you from Dean Ye?"

He was really curious about the relationship between Soul Beast and Ye Feiyang.

"I, I am his relative..." Lan lied bravely.

Dugu Bo looked at her thoughtfully - relatives? Only a ghost can believe it! She pretended to be blind, did she really think she was blind?

However, since she cares so much about Ye Feiyang, she must not offend this person. Maybe she can use this to sell Ye Feiyang a favor. He secretly thought in his heart: He is really smart!

"Hahaha~~ I don't know the exact location, but I heard that he is going to Star Dou Great Forest for business, so he may have already set off."

Lan After listening, I just felt a tightness in my chest - I had gone through so much trouble to find this place, but in the end he went to Star Dou Great Forest again? Is this deliberately torturing myself?

Was he looking for her? But when she thought of Ye Feiyang's appearance when he left that day, she felt bitter in her heart. Moreover, he had also recruited several new disciples. She wondered if those senior sisters could get along well...

She was completely confused: should she go find him? She was also afraid that he would already reply to Heaven Dou City as soon as she arrived at Star Dou Great Forest. If she missed it again and again, she would really be driven crazy!

But now I really can't stay here any longer - although this Titled Douluo has not shown any malicious intent for the time being, what if he is just pretending?

Lan bowed slightly to Dugu Bo: "Thank you, Your Majesty Poison Douluo, for informing me."

Dugu Bo said nothing more, waved his hand and walked towards the accommodation area.

Lan thought for a moment, then turned to Tang Yuehua and said, "Sister Tang, thank you for taking me in during this time. I have to go, goodbye!"

Tang Yuehua frowned slightly and hurriedly advised, "Do you want to go to Star Dou Great Forest? If you go to such a far place alone, will you be able to find him? It's too dangerous."

Liu Erlong was originally thinking about whether to go to Star Dou Great Forest to look for Ye Feiyang, but after hearing what Tang Yuehua said, she felt that it would be easy to miss it if she searched blindly. It would be safer to stay at Heaven Dou City and wait for the rabbit - she didn't believe that Ye Feiyang could never come back! When he comes back, she must let him "compensate" for herself!

Lan whispered, "I know the danger, but I really can't stay here anymore."

After saying that, she turned around and left without any nostalgia.

Tang Yuehua stretched out her hand to stop her, but in the end she just sighed - if she really wanted to leave, no one could stop her.

After getting along with each other for the past few days, Tang Yuehua can see that Lan is not as innocent as it seems on the surface. Instead, he is very mature and has his own opinions. Is it because she insists on coming to the Supreme Academy every day just to wait for Ye Feiyang? Now as soon as there is news about him, she will chase him without hesitation...

Tang Yuehua silently muttered in his heart: Ye Feiyang ah Ye Feiyang, are you going out to do errands or just fooling around? Why do women care about you wherever you go?

Liu Erlong saw Lan was about to leave, and immediately stood up. "Then I'll go back first."

She quickly caught up with Lan, grabbed her arm, and dragged her in the direction of the Blue Tyrant Academy.

"Hey~~Sister Liu, what are you pulling me for?" Lan was staggered and asked in confusion.

Not only did Liu Erlong not let go, but he held on tighter and asked as he walked, "You seem to be afraid of Poison Douluo? Is it because he stays in the academy that you are in a hurry to leave?"

Lan was stunned for a moment, and her heart skipped a beat: How could she tell?

"You, you, what do you know?" she asked nervously, her voice trembling.

Seeing her hesitant look, Liu Erlong became more sure of his guess and said, "That's true! Little Lan, don't worry, I will protect you! Let me guess, do you have any secrets that you are afraid of being discovered by him?"

"Sister Liu, stop guessing, you can't guess it!" Lan quickly interrupted her, for fear that she would guess further and expose her identity.

"Then tell me? We have known each other for a month, and you still don't believe me?" Liu Erlong refused to give up and continued to ask.

She stared at Lan for a long time, and saw that Lan still refused to speak, so she had to give up and persuaded, "You can live with me, there is no need to leave Heaven Dou City. Anyway, I live alone, my place is very quiet, and it is close to the Supreme Academy."

She paused and then added, "Actually, the man surnamed Tang is right. Star Dou Great Forest is too far away. You have only just cultivated Soul Ancestor now. It's too dangerous to go alone."

Liu Erlong persuaded her earnestly, her tone full of sincerity.

"But I..." Lan wanted to explain that it was actually safer for her to enter Star Dou Great Forest. After all, it was her "home field".

But Liu Erlong didn't give her a chance to speak, and interrupted directly, "Stop it! It's settled! I will go to the Supreme Academy every day to inquire about news, and I will tell you as soon as there is any news about Ye Feiyang."

After saying that, she couldn't help but pull Lan and walked towards the back mountain.

Not long after, the two arrived at Liu Erlong's hut in the back mountain.

"I usually come here alone. If you feel bored, you can also go to my Blue Tyrant Academy to hang out and chat with the students." Liu Erlong said as he opened the door.

Lan looked at the hut hidden in the woods. The quiet environment relaxed her tense nerves a little. If it weren't for the fear that Dugu Bo would kill her, she actually wouldn't want to leave Supreme Academy like this - after all, she had already waited for so long, and she didn't care to wait a little longer.

"Then thank you Sister Liu." Lan's tone was still dull, obviously still worried about Ye Feiyang.

In this way, Lan agreed to live here temporarily, and by the way, he also became Liu Erlong's "food tester" - Liu Erlong occasionally got excited and wanted to cook, so Lan would taste it first.

On the other side, inside the Supreme Academy.

Without Lan as the "audience", and without Liu Erlong bickering with him, Tang Yuehua suddenly felt a little bored.

However, this boredom did not last long, and her attention was attracted by a new message - this was the information she had just received from her subordinates: Imperial Fighting Team had an accident on the way back. Two team members dropped out midway, and then five more students joined.

These five new students originally belonged to Shrek Team, but now they have been officially merged into Imperial Fighting Team. However, the name of the team has not changed and is still called "Imperial Fighting Team".

Although she knew this information, Tang Yuehua didn't take it too seriously - after all, it had nothing to do with her, and Imperial Fighting Team's life and death had nothing to do with the Supreme Academy.

Within the Royal Academy.

Without the incident of Xue Qinghe, the follow-up was uneventful. Dugu Bo was not invited by Prince Xue Xing to evaluate the strength of the students, and Shrek Team was successfully merged into Imperial Fighting Team.

Now the Soul Power Level of all members of Imperial Fighting Team are as follows:

Yu Tianheng level 39, Dai Mubai level 39, Tang San level 36, Oscar level 34, Meng Yiran level 33, Ma Hongjun level 29, Stone Brothers are all level 38, Yu Feng Level 36, Osler Level 36.

When reorganizing the team, after some so-called "friendly negotiations", the lineup of the first echelon was finally determined to be: Yu Tianheng, Dai Mubai, Tang San, Oscar, Stone Brothers, Yu Feng. The full name of the team was designated as "Royal Fight Shrek Team".

Ma Hongjun and Meng Yiran were demoted to substitutes due to the low Soul Power Level and the team's position adjustment.

Although the two of them were unhappy, Imperial Fighting Team had already given up three main spots and was determined not to give in anymore - unwilling to accept the status of substitute, the merger was canceled and they were asked to find another way out.

In the end, Yu Xiaogang and Flender had no choice but to accept this result.

Oscar relied on the practicality of his special auxiliary Martial Soul (Sausage Spirit) to barely keep his main position.

Yu Tianheng was originally reluctant to let Shrek occupy so many main spots, but who made him Yu Xiaogang's nephew? He had no choice but to endure it.

Just after everything settled, Yu Tianheng accidentally mentioned a piece of news to Yu Xiaogang and Flender: his cousin Liu Erlong also In Heaven Dou City, there is also a Soul Master Academy called "Blue Tyrant Academy". The purpose of the college is very clear - only to recruit civilian students, not noble children.

This news was like a thunder, directly splitting Flender and Yu Xiaogang into pieces.

The two of them had the same idea right away: Was it too hasty when they decided to join Imperial Fighting Team?

In Imperial Fighting Team, they do not have any independent decision-making power and are constrained everywhere; all the achievements of Shrek Team in the past have been wasted, and now the new team needs to grind again. Together; and the position of team captain was taken by Yu Tianheng, and Tang San could only be ranked as vice-captain; what was even more frustrating was that two students from his own college were treated as substitutes...

Although they couldn't accept it in their hearts, the situation was stronger than the others, so they could only be forced to compromise.

But now that I heard the news that Liu Erlong opened a college in Heaven Dou City, Yu Xiaogang almost wanted to scold Yu Tianheng - why didn't you say it earlier? If they had known that Liu Erlong was here early in the morning, how could they have come to Imperial Fighting Team to accept this nonsense!

Flender and Yu Xiaogang looked at each other and saw the intention to retreat in each other's eyes.

Flender looked at Yu Xiaogang with fiery eyes and lowered his voice and said, "Xiao An, if you quit Imperial Fighting Team now and go back to Erlong, it might still be too late..."

"But we have reached an agreement with Imperial Fighting Team. Wouldn't it be bad to withdraw now?" Yu Xiaogang was a little hesitant and could not take that step - he still couldn't let go of his face.

Flender frowned in displeasure. "Now, you still care about this? How many years have the three of us been together? Don't you want to meet Erlong?"

He paused and then added, "Besides, staying at Imperial Fighting Team won't do us any good. If there is a better choice, Imperial Fighting Team doesn't have to wait! If this continues, I'm afraid that Shrek Team's name will be completely wiped out by them sooner or later..."

Yu Xiaogang was silent for a moment, feeling that what Flender said was reasonable. In addition, he himself couldn't resist Flender, so he simply went down the stairs.

Later, Shrek and his party avoided Imperial Fighting Team's people on the pretext of "going out to familiarize themselves with the Heaven Dou City environment" and came to the Blue Tyrant Academy.

Standing at the door of the Blue Tyrant Academy, Flender and Yu Xiaogang stared closely at the plaque of the college, with a bit of reminiscence and emotion in their expressions - the time of "Golden Triangle" seemed to be right in front of their eyes.

"Teacher, what are you looking at? What are we doing here?" Tang San couldn't help but ask when he saw the two of them standing in a daze at the door.

Flender came back to his senses and explained with a smile, "Come to meet an old friend. You must have never heard of 'Golden Triangle', right?"

Dai Mubai hesitated for a moment and asked tentatively, "Dean, you mean... the last one of 'Golden Triangle' is in this college?"

He had vaguely heard some rumors about "Golden Triangle" before, but his understanding was not comprehensive. Thinking of the current reactions of Flender and Yu Xiaogang, he quickly guessed the key.

"That's right!" A somewhat proud smile appeared on Flender's face, "If Tian Heng hadn't mentioned it, we wouldn't have known that Erlong was also in Heaven Dou City and opened such a college."

Yu Xiaogang always kept a straight face and didn't say much, but it didn't stop Flender from recalling the past.

When Flender had finished speaking, he interrupted, "Okay, don't keep bringing up the past. Find Erlong first."

"Okay, okay, let's stop talking. Why don't we stop talking?" Flender smiled and waved his hand, turned and walked towards the college's concierge, and asked politely, "Excuse me, is your dean here? Please let me know that my old friend Flender is visiting."

The concierge looked at Flender's group and saw that they were dressed in ordinary clothes and did not look like noble children. However, he did not refuse to report. He just said, "Our dean is practicing in the back mountain. I can go and report to you, but she will not see you... I can't guarantee it."

"No problem, please!" Flender was very sure that Liu Erlong would definitely meet him - after all, they have been old friends for many years.

After saying that, he also glanced at Yu Xiaogang, who turned sideways unnaturally and avoided his gaze.

When she thought that she would soon see Liu Erlong, whom she had longed for, Flender rubbed her hands in excitement, her face full of anticipation.

Several other people were full of curiosity: What kind of person could make the dean lose his temper like this? And actually make teacher Yu Xiaogang care so much?
