"Red, bamboo, clear."

The words came out of Dai Mubai's mouth in a gloomy and venomous voice, almost word by word.

The resentment contained within made both Xiao Wu and Oscar unconsciously shrink back.

At the same time, Tang San's face darkened. He felt a dull ache in his hands again. Even though his injuries had long since healed, his Xuan Yu Hand...

He had imagined countless times what it would be like for the two of them to meet again, but he never expected that only half a year would pass before he would run into Zhu Zhuqing again.

And it seems she's doing quite well, which is something he can't accept.

Why is she, the murderer, able to get away with it? And what does she think of her former companions? Does she deserve the trust and care she received from her teachers and the dean? You know, Flender personally led her on the hunt for her third Soul Ring.

The more Tang San thought about it, the more he felt that compared to Zhu Zhuqing, they were the righteous side and the betrayed side. Moreover, as Dai Mubai's fiancée, she had actually hurt him, which was even more unforgivable.

Of course, this matter had nothing to do with him, but Dai Mubai was his good brother, so how could he remain indifferent to it?

After all, Zhu Zhuqing's departure would mean a loss of the entire team's fighting strength, and as the core of the team, his powerful methods would also be affected.

She had already chosen a path to death.

Thinking of this, he turned his head to look at Dai Mubai, only to find that Dai Mubai was also looking at him.

The two exchanged a glance and confirmed that their goals were aligned, which emboldened them even more.

"Let's go, Dai Mubai, let's go there. Today, we need an explanation."

Tang San uttered words tinged with coldness, Dai Mubai nodded in agreement, ready to go over together.

However, to their surprise, a figure appeared in front of them with incredible speed, blocking their path.

"I know you two are angry, but calm down."

Flender's tone was very serious, as if he had no intention of giving the two of them any face.

"Dean..."

Dai Mubai had just opened his mouth when Flender interrupted him again.

"If you want to embarrass yourselves, get punished by the academy, and be abandoned by the Crown Prince, then go ahead. I won't stop you."

Flender turned to the side and pointed towards the entrance. "Are you all blinded by anger? Have you lost even the most basic judgment? Tell me, what does her uniform represent?"

"Skywater Academy".

Tang San blurted it out almost without thinking. Then, his eyes widened slightly, as if he had thought of something, and a look of astonishment appeared on his face.

"That's right, it's Skywater Academy. You've memorized all the information the academy gave you, right? Do I need to remind you what this means?"

Upon hearing Flender's words, three words simultaneously arose in everyone's mind: Spirit Hall.

Hmm, perhaps we could go a bit further and mention Han Li, the Holy Son of the Spirit Hall.

After all, the Spirit Hall has never publicly acknowledged that Skywater Academy has become their affiliated academy, and Skywater Academy has never publicly acknowledged this either.

However, judging from the support that the Spirit Hall has given to the Tianshu Academy in recent years, and the message that the Skywater Academy has expressed to the outside world, there is no difference.

Most importantly, all the intelligence indicated one thing: Shui Bing'er from the Skywater Academy was forcibly taken away by the Holy Son Han Li and his Super Douluo master.

That's right, that's the consensus. Even though Skywater Academy later clarified the matter, people still don't believe it.

"So, that bitch Zhu Zhuqing has sided with that Han Li?"

A sudden remark reached their ears, and when they turned to look, they found that Dai Mubai's eyes were already bloodshot.

"Dai Mubai, you can't just say things without evidence, especially now."

Flender appeared in front of him in a flash, placing his arms on his shoulders and cautiously surveying the surroundings, afraid that he might say something shocking or do something irrational.

Seeing that everyone's attention was still focused on the Skywater Academy, Flender breathed a sigh of relief.

"I know what you're trying to say, but do you want to get us killed? Putting aside the fact that you have no connection with Han... Saint Son, Zhu Zhuqing may have gone to the Skywater Academy on her own."

Flender glanced around again, then lowered his voice:

"Even if it is him, what can you do? Don't forget, you're still working under His Crown Prince. You've heard about his relationship with that person, haven't you? Are you planning to give up this last chance?"

"Although the substitutes didn't come because the starting lineup has already been decided, don't forget, their names are all on the list we just submitted."

Clearly, after seeing Zhu Zhuqing appear in the Skywater Academy's group, Flender also tacitly acknowledged that Han Li had definitely intervened in what had happened before.

But he wouldn't dare make inappropriate remarks in public; he knows his own limitations.

A Soul Saint is no different from a Blue Silver Grass in front of the Spirit Hall; he doesn't have a titled father or an emperor father.

Moreover, even if it were possible, it wouldn't seem to make much of a difference. Tang Hao was still constantly on the run, and Xue Qinghe, who was already a powerful crown prince, was treated with the same courtesy. How much more so would Dai Mubai, the abandoned son among the Star Luo Empire princes?

Upon hearing Flender's words, Dai Mubai lowered his head helplessly, his palms already pierced by Flander's nails.

"Is there really no way to deal with that bitch?"

He let out a low growl, but Flender did not respond.

"It's not that there's no way out. Although the rules of the competition don't allow injuries, it's still a fight, and it's possible that someone might not be able to stop themselves, right?"

Unbeknownst to Flender, Tang San's somewhat sinister words came from behind him.

"Tang San, do you want everyone to die with you?"

Flender was both surprised and furious. He turned around abruptly and looked at Tang San, who was watching them.

To be honest, hearing those words sent a chill down his spine.

In his mind, Zhu Zhuqing had only made a few sarcastic remarks to Tang San and exchanged a few simple blows, causing Tang San to suffer some minor injuries. In just one week, Tang San had already recovered. Where did he get such a strong killing intent from?

It's worth noting that Zhu Zhuqing was their teammate before, and in fact, besides Xiao Wu, she was Tang San's most capable partner during training.

But why? Why would he add fuel to the fire at this moment, instigating Dai Mubai to do such a thing?

Moreover, doesn't he know that if something like this happens, everyone present, except Ning Rongrong, will be held accountable? Not only will their futures be ruined, but they might even be implicated? Or does he already know about his background and know that he, or even Xiao Wu, will be unharmed?

Just as Flender was about to say something more, he heard Tang San's voice rang out again:

"I'm sorry, Dean. I didn't think things through. I apologize. I only meant to help Dai Mubai, and that's why I spoke without thinking."

As he spoke, a look of shame appeared on his face, and he bowed to the crowd, as if he had indeed mentioned it unintentionally.

"Oh, no need for that, teacher. Third Brother didn't mean it. Please don't blame him, right, Oscar?"

Ma Hongjun was closest to Tang San, and somewhat at a loss, he helped Tang San up, and even winked at Oscar, signaling him to help.

After Tang San's breakthrough, they witnessed his strength anew. He could be regarded as an extremely powerful Battle Soul Ancestor, and their victories were still in Tang San's hands.

Oscar paused for a moment, glanced at Tang San and Flender, and softly uttered a "hmm".

He had absolutely no desire to get involved in this.

That damned fatso dragged him into this again, but in this situation, he couldn't just do nothing.

Flender glanced at his good-for-nothing disciple, then gave Tang San a deep look. He had experienced firsthand the acting skills of his former "good brother" disciple, so he wouldn't judge a book by its cover.

"Let it go this time, but don't say things like that again."

Flender waved his hand, not daring to speak harshly to Tang San, lest he suffer the same fate as Zhao Wuji.

"Alright, let's not think about anything else for now. The most important thing right now is the opening match later. We'll talk about Zhu Zhuqing later."

Flender decisively steered the conversation back to business.

As for bringing it up again later, he will talk to them about it again. He is Yu Xiaogang's grandson.

He now wants to run away immediately. He deeply regrets not pleading for Yu Xiaogang and letting him stay as the team leader.

He's under immense pressure right now, constantly fearing that the powder keg might explode at any moment and affect him.

And perhaps it was just bad luck, but their first opponent was Blue Tyrant Academy, which was another piece of bad news for him.

Not long ago, Tai Long had just joined their team from the Blue Tyrant Academy. He had finally managed to persuade Liu Erlong to stay, and now he had to hand her student her first defeat in the opening match. What kind of situation was this?

As for the secret eye contact between Tang San and Dai Mubai, he could only pretend not to see it.

He couldn't persuade these two, so he could only instruct the others to tell them the seriousness of the matter and to be careful of these two's actions when they encountered Skywater Academy, so as not to cause any trouble.

"Sigh, "Flender sighed inwardly. "What the hell is going on?"

And why are his disciples so stupid, only able to see what's in front of them? They already learned their lesson last time, why do you still believe Tang San? Do you want to die even faster?

"Alright, let's go back to the rest area first. Ning Rongrong is still waiting for us."

Flender, feeling exhausted, told the group to leave. He just wanted to avoid Skywater Academy as much as possible to prevent any accidents from happening.

As if on cue, Flender had barely finished speaking when he saw Ning Rongrong, looking impatient, walk over from the rest area and approach them.

Oh no!

Miss Ning Rongrong has arrived! Get out of the way!

Flender's heart trembled. He had been careless and hadn't considered the man's personality. He had been outside for too long, and now he was afraid he would lose control of the situation.

"Why are you guys so slow? Didn't that guy listen to me?"

Ning Rongrong's slightly dissatisfied voice rang out.

Then, her voice rang out again:

"Hey, what's going on over there? Which team entered? They're so popular. I was wondering why everyone was rushing over here and making so much noise."

Ning Rongrong took a few steps forward and casually looked towards the entrance.

Flender was too late to block her view, and there was no need to, because the Skywater Team was already approaching.

Flender closed his eyes in despair and began to pray.
