Grandmaster on the Roof at Dawn—Is He a Rooster?

Flender's few brief words thoroughly berated Yu Xiaogang.

"A man let a woman bear everything just because of some worldly opinions?"

"What the hell are you?"

"You're taking Erlong's love for you for granted?"

Yu Xiaogang lowered his head deeply, too ashamed to say a word.

"Twenty years. Are you going to watch her spend her entire life alone?"

Yu Xiaogang murmured,

"Twenty years have passed. I no longer dare to hope for anything when it comes to love."

"When I came here and found that you weren't with her, I was secretly pleased."

"But I still don't dare face her."

Flender was so furious that his head felt ready to burst into flames.

"Right now, I only want to focus on training Xiao San. I don't care about anything else."

Flender shook his head and said no more.

"Come to think of it, Tang Lin and Tang San's father came here before."

A smile suddenly appeared on Yu Xiaogang's face.

"I already guessed."

Now it was Flender's turn to be surprised.

"You knew?"

Yu Xiaogang casually tossed the Pope Token onto the table.

"This is what he gave me."

"Xiao San's strength goes far beyond what you've seen."

"Tang Lin is the same. I now want to take her as my disciple as well."

"Since she was able to break through her limits with Half Level, she's qualified."

Flender's heart skipped a beat.

"Could their Martial Souls be mutated too?"

"I can sense that Tang Lin's Blue Silver Grass is clearly different from Tang San's."

"It's purer. And after absorbing the Soul Ring, the appearance of her Blue Silver Grass wasn't altered either."

Yu Xiaogang gently shook his head.

"I don't know whether they mutated or not, but I know they both have Twin Martial Souls!"

Flender's eyes widened abruptly. "Twin Martial Souls? Both of them have Twin Martial Souls!"

"How could that be possible!"

The appearance of even one person with Twin Martial Souls was enough to shock the world, yet two had appeared at once.

Flender leaned back in his chair, lost in thought.

Tang Hao had asked Yu Xiaogang to teach them, so it wasn't really his place to interfere.

Even if Yu Xiaogang ruined Tang San, it had nothing to do with him.

But Tang Lin was different.

Such a genius absolutely could not be ruined by Yu Xiaogang.

He suddenly recalled what Tang Hao had said that day.

"Help me look after them, especially Tang Lin."

That meant he wanted Tang Lin properly trained.

With that, everything made sense.

Inside the Dormitory,

Tang Lin continued cultivating in her sleep.

It was not until the early hours of the morning that she quietly used Earth Evasion Technique to leave and train somewhere deserted.

The attack techniques of the Eight Spider Lances,

the swordsmanship of the Blue Silver Overlord Sword,

the attack speed of Blue Silver Strangler,

and the accuracy and suddenness of her newly acquired Third Soul Skill, Blue Silver Spider Web Restraint.

Tang San's Spider Web Restraint could only be used three times.

But Tang Lin's Third Soul Ring had already reached twenty thousand years.

Her Spider Web Restraint could be used five times. It was stickier and more resilient, and it could also drain life force.

When the first streak of white light appeared in the east, Tang Lin swiftly used Earth Evasion Technique to return to the Dormitory.

At that moment, Yu Xiaogang was lying in wait for Tang San on the Dormitory roof.

When Tang San climbed onto the roof to cultivate Purple Demon Eye,

he looked up and met a pair of black eyes.

"Ah!"

Tang San let out a miserable cry and fell heavily from the roof.

"Ah!"

"My buttocks!"

Tang San rolled over, pushed himself up with both hands, and kept rubbing his buttocks.

"Teacher, what are you doing on the roof? It's early morning—you're not a rooster."

"Ow, that fall really hurt..."

Yu Xiaogang had not expected this either. He had meant to give Tang San a surprise, but instead gave him a scare.

After taking a short nap in the Dormitory, Tang Lin woke Xiao Wu and went with her to the cafeteria for breakfast, beginning another wonderful day.

A night had passed.

The ground already looked as though it had returned to normal.

The heavy rain had washed everything clean.

When they arrived at the cafeteria,

Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, and the others gradually arrived one after another.

Tang San and Yu Xiaogang, the master and disciple pair, followed close behind.

Breakfast was simple.

Pickles, White Porridge, and Mantou—there was as much as they wanted,

plus one egg.

Tang San swiftly carried two portions of food over to Yu Xiaogang.

"Teacher, eat while it's hot."

"Just this?"

Yu Xiaogang immediately frowned.

He had never eaten anything this poor before.

Tang San took a bite of the Da Bai Mantou.

"This is already pretty good. The mantou fills you up. It's much better than when I was little."

"Nonsense! How can there be no meat?"

Grandmaster put down the mantou in his hand, anger rising in his chest. He had to eat meat with every meal.

How could there be no meat?

He quickly found an excuse.

"You Children are at the crucial age for growing. Your bodies are the foundation of your Martial Souls. Without good bodies, how could you endure intense Cultivation?"

Flender's lazy voice drifted in from outside.

"I say, Xiao Gang, you really don't know how hard things are when you're not the one paying. You know these Children are all still growing."

"Do you know how much they eat every day?"

"Do you think none of that costs money?"

"If you're willing to sponsor it, then pretend I said nothing."

Yu Xiaogang's expression improved considerably upon hearing this, though he still sounded angry.

"I don't care what difficulties the Academy has, but I must eat well..."

"But the Children must eat well!"

At those words, Tang Lin, who was drinking porridge, nearly spat out a mouthful.

Yu Xiaogang was truly shameless.

What a line: he didn't care about the Academy's difficulties, but he had to eat well.

She had seen shameless people before, but never someone this shameless.

Wasn't this just a beggar complaining that the food he was given had no meat and tasted bad?

A freeloader was actually pointing fingers now. Anyone unaware of the situation would think he was the Dean.

Flender rolled his eyes and ignored him.

"Besides, what's wrong with eating this for breakfast? Porridge, mantou, pickles, and an egg to supplement nutrition. Is there a problem with that?"

"There's a problem with Children eating this?"

"At noon, they get two meat dishes and one vegetable dish, with all the food they can eat. At night, they get two vegetable dishes and one meat dish, with all the food they can eat, plus a cup of milk for nutrition. Every few days, the Head Chef changes up the menu."

"I truly can't think of what else I could do."

Flender considered it for a moment.

"How about this, Xiao Gang? Since you think the food is so poor, starting at noon, you and Tang San can handle your own meals."

"How does that sound?"

Yu Xiaogang's expression immediately changed upon hearing Flender's words.

But there was No Choice. In the end, he nodded.

"Fine. That works!"

"Also, there's no need to wait until noon. We'll start right now."

"Xiao San, let's go."

Yu Xiaogang turned and walked toward the cafeteria exit.

Tang San glanced at the delicious White Porridge, Preserved Mustard Greens, and Large Mantou, but could only follow Yu Xiaogang in the end.

"Eat, eat."

Flender waved his hand, signaling everyone to keep eating and ignore Yu Xiaogang's nonsense.
