What Tang San? Never Seen Him! Yu Xiaogang Was Dumbfounded

Yu Xiaogang came back to his senses and scratched his head awkwardly before putting on an act and looking at Flender.

"Of course not."

"This disciple of mine is also my godson."

Flender: ???

Godson?

Before he could ask, Yu Xiaogang had already continued.

"My godson's full name is Tang San."

"His nickname is Yu Xiaosan."

What San?

Xiaosan?

Was that even a word that could be used as a name?!

Hearing the name from Yu Xiaogang's mouth, Flender was a little dumbfounded.

Who was that?

He had never even heard of him.

Could he have misheard?

After hesitating for a moment, he cautiously said,

"Say that again. I didn't hear you clearly."

Yu Xiaogang's stiff expression turned somewhat ugly.

What was wrong with Flender? They had only been apart for a few years, and his hearing was already failing?

Still, he patiently repeated himself a second time.

"My godson's name is Tang San."

"Tang San."

Flender's brows immediately furrowed.

This time, he heard clearly. Yu Xiaogang's godson was called Tang San.

But Shrek did not have a student by that name at all!

Was this some fucking joke?

Still, he secretly let out a sigh of relief.

Luckily, it wasn't Ye Xian.

If a genius like Ye Xian had acknowledged Yu Xiaogang as his godfather...

That would have been a real disaster.

With that in mind, Flender stopped beating around the bush and looked directly at Yu Xiaogang.

"What Tang San? Never seen him."

"Did you get it wrong? We didn't recruit any new student named Tang San this year."

There was not a single lie in his words.

He had never even heard the name Tang San before.

"What?"

The smile on Yu Xiaogang's face suddenly froze.

The corners of his mouth twitched twice, and he looked at Flender in disbelief.

"Flender, you're not joking with me, are you?"

"How could Tang San not be at Shrek Academy?"

"Why would I lie to you?"

Flender was speechless. He walked straight to the desk and searched through it for a while.

Then he picked up a bound roster.

"This contains the information on the four new students Shrek Academy recruited this year. See for yourself!"

As he spoke, he tossed the roster directly to Yu Xiaogang, feeling thoroughly displeased.

Had this guy come here first thing in the morning just to pick a fight?

Xiaosan, my ass.

Why not call yourself the fucking original wife while you're at it?

Yu Xiaogang opened the new student roster with a puzzled expression and began reading from the start.

"Zhu Zhuqing, female, twelve years old."

"Beast Martial Soul: Hell Spirit Cat. Entered school as a level twenty-seven Agility Attack System Soul Master."

The moment Yu Xiaogang saw the first student's information, he was dumbfounded.

This student named Zhu Zhuqing was a year younger than Tang San, yet her Soul Power was five levels higher than Tang San's.

And her Martial Soul was exceptionally good as well!

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Yu Xiaogang continued reading.

"Ning Rongrong, female, twelve years old."

"Weapon Soul: Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. Entered school as a level twenty-six Support System Tool Soul Master."

What?!

Another student who was younger than Tang San but had higher Soul Power than him.

What shocked him most was that this student's Martial Soul was actually the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!

Her potential was limitless!

At this moment, Yu Xiaogang actually began to believe Flender's words somewhat.

Judging from their abilities on paper, Tang San was no match for any of them.

There were still two people left, so he chose to continue reading.

"Xiao Wu, female, twelve years old."

"Beast Martial Soul: Rabbit. Level twenty-nine Power Attack System Soul Master."

When he saw Xiao Wu's name, a glint suddenly flashed in his eyes.

Since Xiao Wu had already enrolled, then Tang San, who had come with her, should have enrolled too!

Yu Xiaogang quickly flipped to the last page, then read the information on the paper word by word.

"Ye Xian, male, twelve years old!"

"Weapon Soul: Darkin World Bow. Entered school as a level forty-one Power Attack System Soul Master!"

"Ye... Ye Xian!"

Yu Xiaogang cried out. A familiar figure suddenly flashed through his mind.

After returning from the Soul Hunting Forest, Ye Xian had still refused to take him as his master, so Yu Xiaogang had given up.

He had focused on nurturing Tang San instead.

But Yu Xiaogang was naturally very familiar with Ye Xian's rise to fame at Notting Academy.

Ye Xian had actually come to Shrek Academy as well.

But why was Tang San nowhere to be found?

Did that make any sense?

Bang—!

With a flick of his sleeve, Yu Xiaogang threw the new student records onto the desk.

Flender frowned. Why had Yu Xiaogang become so agitated after seeing Ye Xian's information?

Alarmed, he quickly asked,

"Don't tell me Ye Xian is your disciple too?"

Flender's words struck directly at Yu Xiaogang's sore spot.

Back then, he had repeatedly tried to take Ye Xian as his disciple, only to be rejected every time.

He had looked like a fucking clown.

Now that Flender had brought it up, Yu Xiaogang could hardly save face.

"Once."

After saying those two words, Yu Xiaogang put on an act again, shaking his head and sighing.

He had thought Flender would let the matter go, but who would have expected the latter to be the type to get to the bottom of things?

"Ye Xian was once your disciple? How is that possible?"

Flender looked utterly disdainful.

They had not met for so many years. How had Yu Xiaogang become so shameless?

With Ye Xian's talent, would he ever take you as his master?

Yu Xiaogang's face darkened.

"He almost became my disciple once. Unfortunately, we weren't fated."

Flender immediately gave him an extremely contemptuous look.

So after all that, he was just bragging.

Still, he could tell that Yu Xiaogang knew Ye Xian.

"I want to know whether Tang San came to Shrek Academy to take the entrance examination."

Yu Xiaogang spoke again, breaking the stalemate.

"Did he fail the entrance examination, or did he never come at all?"

"As far as I know, Tang San should have come with Xiao Wu."

"Uh, well..."

Flender thought back. He had not personally overseen this year's entrance examination, so he did not know.

Besides, after seeing Ye Xian that day, he had left.

He had not seen Tang San, who arrived later.

The academy did not keep records of every student who took the entrance examination.

Flender was a complete hands-off boss.

If asked for a general idea, he might know a little.

But if asked for details, he knew absolutely nothing.

Flender rubbed his forehead helplessly.

"It's still early. The students are all resting, so it wouldn't be appropriate for us to go directly to the Girls' Dormitory to find Xiao Wu."

"We can ask Vice-Dean Zhao Wuji first."

"Once the students are up, we can ask Xiao Wu about the details."

At this point, all the pride on Yu Xiaogang's face had vanished.

His face was full of dark lines, and after holding it in for a long while, he only managed half a sentence.

"That's all we can do."

Tang San had not merely failed to make a name for himself at Shrek Academy.

Even where he was had become a mystery.
