Uncle and Nephew Talk

After catching up with Qin Ming for a while, Flender used the excuse that he had business to attend to and parted ways with the Heaven Dou Royal Academy Martial Soul Team.

It was not entirely an excuse either. The Shrek Seven Devils still had spirit battles to take part in!

After humiliating Yu Xiaogang, Su Xing turned more of his attention toward Zhu Zhuqing.

Although he had already given up, Su Xing still wanted to know whether Zhu Zhuqing had forgiven Dai Mubai and whether the two had gotten together.

However, from beginning to end, Su Xing did not see Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai speak to each other. Zhu Zhuqing was even deliberately avoiding Dai Mubai.

On the other hand, Dai Mubai kept trying to get close to Zhu Zhuqing, especially after noticing Su Xing looking at her.

Unfortunately, Zhu Zhuqing did not allow Dai Mubai near her.

When they parted, Zhu Zhuqing gave Su Xing a cold look.

It was as if she were telling Su Xing, I still remember what you did!

Su Xing merely smacked his lips in response, making Zhu Zhuqing turn her head away in anger.

"That bastard!"

Zhu Zhuqing cursed Su Xing inwardly.

Others might not have understood, but she knew very well what Su Xing thought of Yu Xiaogang.

So just now, Su Xing had deliberately made Yu Xiaogang lose face. It was simply that no one else had noticed.

However, Zhu Zhuqing had no intention of exposing him. Seeing that scene had even made her feel rather pleased.

Yu Xiaogang had repeatedly belittled Su Xing at Shrek Academy. She had long found him unpleasant.

"No, I don't have a problem with Grandmaster because of him!"

"I have a problem with Grandmaster because there are flaws in his theories!"

"Uncle, where have you been all this time?"

That night, Yu Xiaogang and Yu Tianheng, uncle and nephew, met in a quiet place.

"Your uncle is teaching at Shrek Academy now," Yu Xiaogang replied.

He did not explain Shrek Academy's situation, believing that Yu Tianheng had certainly already learned about it from Qin Ming.

"Uncle, are you still unwilling to return?" Yu Tianheng asked with a trace of sadness.

"There will be an opportunity in the future." Yu Xiaogang sighed. He did not want to return.

"Alright. Did you call me out today because you needed something?" Yu Tianheng sighed as well. Knowing he could not persuade him, he stopped trying.

"Um... could you tell me in detail about Su Xing?"

Yu Xiaogang did not know what Su Xing was thinking, but in any case, he no longer had the face to ask Su Xing himself.

Yet Yu Xiaogang truly wanted to know about Su Xing, so he had sought out Yu Tianheng to ask.

Su Xing's words had reminded him that Soul Power growth was indeed not restricted by Spirit Rings.

But that still did not explain why Su Xing had advanced so quickly.

"Su Xing..." At the mention of Su Xing, Yu Tianheng's expression stiffened slightly. Having lost to Su Xing before, he still had not fully accepted it.

If Yu Xiaogang had not been the one asking, he would not have wanted to speak much about Su Xing at all.

But since his uncle Yu Xiaogang had asked, Yu Tianheng could only tell him what he knew.

"Uncle, I think the reason his Soul Power Level can rise so quickly may be related to the fruit he ate!"

Yu Tianheng even revealed that Su Xing had consumed a strange fruit.

Yu Tianheng never considered that revealing Su Xing's circumstances like this was a betrayal of Su Xing.

"A strange fruit..."

"That's right. Only legendary heavenly treasures could explain Su Xing's circumstances!"

"I wonder what kind of legendary treasure he actually ate!"

"What a pity. His Spirit Rings exploded, so he can never absorb Spirit Rings again. That strange fruit was wasted on him!"

"For a strange fruit to let Su Xing, who only had Innate Soul Power of Rank 3, advance so quickly without even absorbing Spirit Rings, it must be extraordinarily precious!"

"What a waste..."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang suddenly understood. At last, he had an explanation that made sense.

After reaching that realization, Yu Xiaogang looked full of regret. He felt that letting Su Xing, whose Spirit Rings had exploded, consume that strange fruit had been a complete waste.

"Not entirely. Su Xing's Self-Created Soul Skills are still very powerful!" Yu Tianheng felt that he needed to speak up for Su Xing.

Otherwise, would that not make him, who had been defeated by Su Xing, seem even more pathetic?

"That is only true for now. Rank 70 is a watershed. Only Spirit Masters who have absorbed Spirit Rings can use a Martial Soul Avatar. That is impossible for him!"

"Without a Martial Soul Avatar, even if he can reach Rank 70, he will certainly... basically be no match for opponents with Martial Soul Avatars."

"Besides, his Self-Created Soul Skills may not be able to keep pace with his Soul Power Level. Low-level Spirit Skills are easy to create, but high-level ones definitely will not be so simple!"

Yu Xiaogang shook his head. Now that he knew Su Xing's circumstances, he could analyze them with perfect logic once more.

"Uncle thinks his progress will get slower and slower?" Yu Tianheng frowned slightly at that.

Though part of him was secretly delighted to hear it, when he thought of the upcoming Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament, Yu Tianheng did not want Su Xing to fall behind in his growth.

"I cannot guarantee anything regarding his Soul Power Level, but there is a very high chance that his Spirit Skills will fail to keep up!"

"A Spirit Master's Spirit Skills only grow stronger and stronger. He needs to create every one of his Spirit Skills himself. Do you think his Self-Created Soul Skills can keep pace?"

Yu Xiaogang replied.

For some reason, Yu Xiaogang simply wanted to deny Su Xing and did not want to see him succeed.

Perhaps it was because the more successful Su Xing became, the more it proved how blind Yu Xiaogang had been when he refused to accept Su Xing as his disciple.

"Zhu Zhuqing, what exactly will it take for you to forgive me?"

"As long as you say it, I, Dai Mubai, promise I'll do it!"

Outside Zhu Zhuqing's room, Dai Mubai looked at the aloof Zhu Zhuqing and spoke to her in a compromising tone.

He cared about Zhu Zhuqing. After Zhu Zhuqing arrived, he had reformed himself, but she had never paid much attention to him.

That made Dai Mubai very angry, but he also knew he was in the wrong. He knew that Zhu Zhuqing coming to find him was also giving him an opportunity.

But Dai Mubai found that no matter what he did, it was useless, and he could only bottle up his anger.

Today, seeing Su Xing again had not only awakened his hatred for Su Xing, but had also truly made Dai Mubai nervous.

Because he knew Su Xing liked Zhu Zhuqing too.

So, for the first time, Dai Mubai lowered his noble head and directly begged Zhu Zhuqing for forgiveness!

Looking at Dai Mubai, who was practically wagging his tail and begging, Zhu Zhuqing's beautiful eyes flickered. According to her plan, Dai Mubai's attitude was already enough for her to forgive him.

But now, she could not bring herself to say the words of forgiveness.

Instead, she wondered whether Dai Mubai, acting so submissively, could ever stand tall again.

Moreover, Zhu Zhuqing inexplicably thought of Su Xing again and began comparing him with Dai Mubai.

Damn it!

Realizing this, Zhu Zhuqing immediately became irritated.

Though she was unwilling to admit it, Zhu Zhuqing sorrowfully realized that Su Xing's domineering forced kiss last time had not only made her hate him to death, but had also imprinted his figure deep within her heart.

Zhu Zhuqing knew clearly that she should not be like this.
