Although Yu Xiaogang remained silent during the meal, his dissatisfaction grew stronger. If it weren't for the presence of a chef, he probably would have started arguing with Tang San again.

In his view, how could a fourteen-year-old child possibly balance cultivation and theoretical Senior Student at the same time?

Based on Yu Xiaogang's experience, he felt that Oscar's theoretical knowledge was copied from elsewhere and was definitely not his own research.

Furthermore, it's even possible that Oscar's Soul Power cultivation was achieved by consuming external objects that cost him his Life Force, which allowed him to approach the Soul Power Spirit King level at the age of fourteen.

Yu Xiaogang was still openly and secretly discussing these ideas with Tang San, trying to change Tang San's mind and prevent him from being misled by villains.

Although Tang San had deep feelings for his teacher who had taught him for six years, he couldn't help but feel somewhat repulsed by Yu Xiaogang Tang San he was almost certain that the other party was exactly as his Senior Student Oscar had described.

Although they had a six-year friendship, which wouldn't cause Tang San to directly turn against Yu Xiaogang, Tang San wouldn't tolerate Yu Xiaogang continuing to act like a rogue.

Because the Tang Sect has a rule. "Article X of the Tang Sect Clan's rules states that anyone who entraps another in injustice or deceives an ignorant youth shall be punished by having their limbs severed and be killed."

Tang San might not kill Yu Xiaogang, but he would definitely sever all ties with him, because after learning the truth, he fully understands how Yu Xiaogang wasted his talent.

In Yu Xiaogang's view, if Tang San hadn't possessed Twin Martial Souls and been exceptionally talented, why would he have been so lenient with Tang San?

Moreover, Yu Xiaogang only has Tang San as his disciple in his entire life. He can be said to have staked everything on Tang San. Now Tang San is actually opposing him? And because of an outsider opposing him?

At this moment, while eating the food Shao Xin had prepared, Yu Xiaogang was thinking about how to deal with Oscar. He refused to believe that he couldn't even handle a kid who was only a teenager.

A short while later, after Yu Xiaogang and Tang San finished eating, Oscar finally arrived.

Seeing Yu Xiaogang wiping his mouth, Oscar walked straight into the cafeteria. Shao Xin saw Oscar and called out with a smile, "Xiao Ao, is training over so early today?"

Oscar replied, "Not yet, Teacher Shao. I have some things to take care of here, and the training is still ongoing."

Oscar is indeed still training, but the person training Ma Hongjun and the others is a clone. Multitasking is already commonplace for Oscar.

Upon approaching, Oscar said to Yu Xiaogang, "This is the cafeteria, not a suitable place to discuss matters. Let's go to the pavilion by the stream."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang stood up and straightened his robes, then said, "No rush. Now that I'm here, I naturally want to make things clear to you. But before that, I need to go see Flender first."

Hearing this, Oscar's expression remained calm, because Oscar could roughly guess Yu Xiaogang's thoughts. However... Oscar wasn't worried. Although he hadn't told Flender about this beforehand, he believed Flender was a smart man.

Although the dean values relationships, when faced with absolute truth, and considering that Oscar's relationship with Flender is not much worse than Yu Xiaogang's, he still has a strong sense of justice.

It's just that Yu Xiaogang is his longtime friend, but Oscar and Flender have also had a very good relationship during the eight years they spent at the Shrek Academy. They are both teacher and friend, and Oscar's help to Flender far surpasses that of Yu Xiaogang.

It could even be said that Yu Xiaogang could offer Flender nothing more than the Martial Soul Fusion Skill of their Golden Iron Triangle.

Therefore, Oscar believed that Flender would not take sides, after all, Flender was a smart man.

So after hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Oscar calmly replied, "Okay, then let's go to the dean's office."

Oscar then turned and led the way, with Yu Xiaogang and Tang San following closely behind.

At this moment, Ma Hongjun and his teammates, who were taking a break, had already started discussing things privately.

Ma Hongjun asked, "Who do you think that person was just now? How did he come back with Tang San?"

Although Dugu Yan knew the inside story, she did not participate in the discussion, but instead talked to Oscar's clone.

Xiao Wu, who knew the inside story, whispered, "That middle-aged man was Third Brother's teacher, named Yu Xiaogang, known as Grandmaster."

Upon hearing Xiao Wu's introduction, everyone was slightly taken aback. Even Ning Rongrong frowned and thought for a long time, as she seemed to have never heard of such a person.

Dai Mubai shook his head and said, "Grandmaster? Never heard of him? Is he famous? How dare he call himself Grandmaster?"

Hearing this, Ning Rongrong chimed in, "I haven't heard of it before, but someone who can be called a Grandmaster and become Tang San's teacher must be a powerful Soul Master."

Hearing this, Xiao Wu didn't know whether she should laugh or not, after all, that was her third brother's teacher, but she still explained, "The Grandmaster's strength is not great, what he is strong in is only theory."

Upon hearing this, Ma Hongjun immediately became interested. "Theory? Does he want to challenge the boss? I've never seen anyone who is better at theory than the boss."

Xiao Wu smiled sheepishly upon hearing this, and didn't say much more, "Perhaps..."

Meanwhile, Tang San had already brought Yu Xiaogang and Tang San into the dean's office, where Flender was reclining on a chair, resting with his eyes closed! This was because it wasn't Flender's true form, but a clone created by consuming Oscar's Clone Sausage.

So when he's not busy, Flender usually rests on a recliner, since his main body is still searching for Zhao Wuji's Eighth Spirit Ring!

Of course, when Flender saw Yu Xiaogang, surprise and delight appeared simultaneously on his shoe-sole-like face. "Xiaogang? Why are you here so soon?"

In fact, Yu Xiaogang and Flender had exchanged letters a few months ago when Tang San was about to graduate. Of course, Yu Xiaogang told Flender that he had a good prospect to recommend to Flender. Oscar also showed Flender the letter that Tang San brought with him.

But the letter said that Yu Xiaogang be back in two months. Although a month has passed, there is still a month left before Yu Xiaogang comes. Why is he here now? Flender was hoping to come back before Yu Xiaogang arrived, but now it seems that he will not be able to make it back in time.

However, they are all the same, since the clone and the original consciousness are the same and there is almost no difference between them.

Upon seeing Flender, Yu Xiaogang did not show the same surprise as Flender; he simply stood there with a stern face.

Flender was about to hug Yu Xiaogang, also noticed this scene. His smile froze on his face, and he asked with some confusion, "What's wrong with you? Aren't you happy to see me?"

Yu Xiaogang did not answer Flender's question, but instead looked at Oscar beside him. "Flender, if you had to choose between me and you, your student, who would you choose?"

Flender was stumped by Yu Xiaogang's question.

Two choices? Is there even a choice? Of course, I'd choose Xiao Ao! Without him, where would Flender be today? Where would Shrek Academy be today?

Of course, this idea was just a prank in Flender's mind, but he wondered why his friend would be so hostile to Oscar.

The shrewd Flender could easily see that his friend had clearly run into some kind of problem with Xiao Ao.

Flender asked, puzzled, "Xiao Gang, what's wrong with you? Why are you suddenly asking this kind of question?"

Yu Xiaogang, with a sour face, said, "You should ask your student! Talking about other teachers and elders behind their backs, even fabricating stories about academic predecessors, is this the kind of student you teach, Flender?"

Faced with Yu Xiaogang's questioning, Flender's expression also turned somewhat ugly, but after all, they were friends of many years, so he didn't blame Yu Xiaogang. Instead, he asked, "What happened? You and Xiao Ao had never met before, so how could he have made up stories about you behind your back?"

There must be some misunderstanding between you two, right?

Upon hearing Flender's words, Yu Xiaogang's expression darkened even further. He had originally thought that Flender would side with him directly, given the facts, but now it seemed that Flender was clearly biased towards Oscar.

Is it just because Oscar is a genius? So what if he's a genius? In Yu Xiaogang's view, without good character, such a student won't go far! Besides, he's brought a genius to Flender as well. He believes that once Flender knows Tang San's talent, he'll know what to do.

Then Yu Xiaogang said, "There's no misunderstanding! Your student is utterly morally corrupt! My disciple Tang San has only been at your Shrek Academy for a day, and he's already been bewitched by him. He even dared to question my theories? Saying that I ruined Little San's teachings?"

As he spoke, Yu Xiaogang seemed to grow increasingly angry. "Flender, you know me. Although my talent for cultivation is somewhat lacking, I have dedicated my life to theoretical research. How dare this immature kid, barely a teenager, question my theories? He knows how much theoretical research I put into transforming Little San's Blue Silver Grass into what it is today."

Yu Xiaogang seemed to have found a way to vent, and he talked at length to Flender. Oscar didn't say anything to explain, but he just exchanged a glance with Tang San, the meaning in his eyes was very clear. "Now you know why I said that, right?"

Tang San seemed helpless as well, because seeing his teacher's expression, he completely understood who was right, but... this was, after all, his teacher who had taught him for six years...

However, Yu Xiaogang's appearance was really too ugly. Was Oscar a child, or was his teacher a child?

After a long while, Yu Xiaogang's mouth was dry from talking, and Flender finally understood what had happened. But to him, it seemed, perhaps, maybe... Oscar was the one who was right.

Although Flender knew that Yu Xiaogang was full of theoretical knowledge, he had watched Oscar grow up over the past eight years. In fact, Flender and the entire Shrek Academy owe their success to Oscar.

If a comparison had to be made, Flender felt that Oscar's theory seemed more authoritative, since it was something he had personally tested.

Even in the years after meeting Oscar, Flender often felt that some of his friend's theories were too far-fetched and had hardly been put into practice, but he regarded them as treasures and even wanted to publish them.

However, it's really not good for Oscar to say such things about his friend. Even though they have met in person, it's not right for him to talk about someone like that behind their back.

However, to be fair, Flender couldn't take sides, so after a long while, he said, "Xiao Gang, since that's the case, let's talk about one thing: your disciple's Blue Silver Grass Spirit. Since you and Xiao Ao both think your theory is correct, then ask Tang San what he thinks."

"He cultivated under your guidance, so why not just ask him what he thinks and feels?"

As if afraid that Yu Xiaogang would overthink things, Flender added a special reminder: "Xiaogang, the reason I say this is because Xiao Ao himself has a solid theoretical foundation. There are even many questions that we still need to ask him. Nowadays, he is the one who makes all the decisions regarding the teaching affairs of the academy."

"Tang San must have mentioned the current situation of the students in the academy to you. Think about it, it's not just that Xiao Ao himself is outstanding. He's also able to teach so many excellent geniuses, so how could his own strength be lacking?"

"While it's true that he fabricated stories about you, but... but..."

Flender didn't need to say anything more; Yu Xiaogang could guess what was coming next.

He never expected Flender to think that way! At this moment, a surge of anger rose within Yu Xiaogang.

However, it seems that Flender's words also make sense. If Tang San was not lying, then all the geniuses of the Shrek Academy have broken the records he knew.

But how could this be the achievement of a child in his teens? Isn't it because they are inherently gifted? I am the real Grandmaster, transforming the Blue Silver Grass, a Trash Spirit, into Control System Spirit Master with decent control abilities. That is true strength!

Just as Yu Xiaogang was about to bring this up, Tang San suddenly spoke up, "Teacher, there's really no need to argue. I've thought about a lot of things along the way, and perhaps... Senior Student is right."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang felt a wave of dizziness wash over him! His disciple was actually siding with outsiders? Oscar was right? Had all his efforts over the past six years been for nothing?

Yu Xiaogang glared angrily at Tang San: "Little San! What did you say?! He's right? Do you know that without me, your Blue Silver Grass is just a Trash Spirit? Without my theories, how could you possibly absorb beast Soul Ring to improve your Blue Silver Grass? And now you're siding with an outsider? And questioning your teacher on his behalf?"

Looking at the furious Yu Xiaogang, Tang San's expression was uncertain. He didn't know how to tactfully talk to his teacher. After all, the teacher had taught him for six years. If he completely denied it now, he would really be an ingrate.

Fortunately, Oscar spoke up, "Yu Xiaogang, in my opinion you are not worthy of the title of Grandmaster, so I will not call you that."

"Speaking of Tang San's Martial Soul, do you really think his Martial Soul is just ordinary Blue Silver Grass? I heard Tang San say that you have studied many Blue Silver Grass Spirit owners, so you should know that if Tang San's Martial Soul is just ordinary Blue Silver Grass, how could he possibly have Innate Full Soul Power?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang turned and glared at Oscar: "What do you know? Little San's Blue Silver Grass is just ordinary Blue Silver Grass; its form cannot be faked! The reason he possesses Innate Full Soul Power is because of his second Martial Soul!"

Hearing this, Oscar laughed, "It seems you didn't listen to what I told Tang San to tell you. The condition for the creation of Twin Martial Souls is that the two Martial Soul must be of equal quality. I don't need to say more about the quality of the Clear Sky Hammer, do I?"

Upon hearing this, Flender's expression changed. He didn't know that Tang San had Twin Martial Souls, let alone that Tang San's Second Martial Soul was the Clear Sky Hammer.

But listening to Oscar and Yu Xiaogang's argument, why did he still feel that Xiao Ao's argument was more convincing? What was wrong with his friend? Why... why did he seem so ignorant compared to Xiao Ao?
