Yu Xiaogang: Yu Xiaotian Really Is a Demon!

[Great Soul Arena, Skywater City - Main Stage]

["Match Fifteen! Dragon God, challenging a level thirty-three Soul Elder across tiers!"]

[Before the announcer's voice could even fade, the situation on the stage changed dramatically!]

["It's over."]

[A faint statement fell, followed immediately by a BOOM!]

[A small figure moved like lightning, golden dragon claws tearing through the air with a piercing roar!]

[The level thirty-three Soul Elder's third Soul Ring had barely lit up when it was struck by a golden dragon claw imbued with unparalleled dominance!]

[BANG!]

[Like a kite with its strings cut, the Soul Elder was knocked unconscious with a single blow and sent flying dozens of meters off the stage!]

[Silence! After a deathly silence, an explosive roar erupted!]

["Dragon God! Dragon God! Dragon God!"]

[The entire arena cheered thunderously! All spotlights converged on the small figure standing proudly, one hand behind his back!]

[At this moment of overwhelming attention, a commotion suddenly arose from the entrance of the Soul Arena.]

["Make way! Make way!"]

[A group of Soul Masters dressed in deep purple tight-fitting uniforms parted the crowd and strode in.]

[The lightning emblem on their chests gleamed under the lights.]

[It was the Thunder Academy team, who had just arrived in Skywater City!]

[Lei Bufan, leading the group, had sharp eyes. His gaze swept across the stage, and his pupils contracted sharply.]

["That's... the Young Master!!"]

[The instant he confirmed the figure, Lei Bufan's eyes blazed with fervent light.]

[Under the gaze of everyone present, he and his teammates rushed towards the edge of the stage like a purple whirlwind!]

[The next moment, something happened that made the entire audience's jaws drop.]

[CRASH!]

[The entire Thunder team knelt on one knee at the edge of the stage, their movements perfectly synchronized as if they had rehearsed countless times.]

[Lei Bufan's voice boomed, amplified by his Soul Power:]

["I am Lei Bufan, captain of the Thunder team, and I lead all my members in welcoming the Young Master back to the team!!"]

[This shout of "Young Master," like a thunderclap, instantly spread throughout the arena via the amplification Soul Tools, drowning out all the cheers.]

[In a corner of the stands.]

[Liu Erlong was excitedly waving her hands, ready to applaud and cheer for her newfound close friend.]

["Well done! Dragon God, you're simply too..."]

[However, that single word, "Young Master."]

[Caused Liu Erlong's hands to freeze mid-air.]

[The bright smile on her face instantly solidified.]

[She stared blankly at the group clad in the purple Thunder team uniform.]

[It was the color she hated most in her life.]

[She looked back at the stage, where Yu Xiaotian, surrounded by the others, slowly removed his golden mask, revealing a handsome, youthful face.]

[The friend who had accompanied her to the night market these past few days, listened to her complaints, handed her water, and comforted her with their shared bloodline.]

["Thunder Academy... Young Master... Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan..."]

[Liu Erlong's lips trembled, her face instantly turned deathly pale, and the light in her eyes completely extinguished at that moment.]

[Even if she were foolish, she understood now.]

[The friend who had treated her like a brother these past few days was actually the eldest young master of that cold-blooded, heartless clan that had abandoned her mother?]

[The so-called "shared bloodline" wasn't a casual pickup line, but a cold, cruel mockery!]

[He was that person's nephew... her cousin?]

[Fate had played a colossal joke on her.]

The White World.

Thunder Academy.

Seeing himself on the sky screen, Lei Bufan didn't feel embarrassed at all. Instead, he slapped his thigh proudly:

"See! This is what you call foresight!"

"I recognized him as Young Master Yu Xiaotian at a glance back then."

"Ever since I was defeated by the Young Master last time, I've had an epiphany!"

Lei Bufan was imparting his life experience to his son.

"Only by holding onto a strong leg can you fly higher! This isn't just flattery, it's called picking a side! As it turns out, my choice was f***ing spot on!"

Lei Dong, standing beside him.

Looking at his father's proud expression.

His mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but sigh:

"Dad, your skin is really... completely catching up to the dean now."

Lei Bufan snorted coldly, ignoring his son's teasing.

In his opinion, what was pride worth?

Being able to follow the Young Master was an unparalleled honor!

White World.

Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

The secret area behind the mountain.

At this moment, Yu Xiaotian had just finished sparring with Bibi Dong.

The two were in a delicate post-coital state.

Bibi Dong leaned lazily in Yu Xiaotian's arms and said with a half-smile:

"Oh my, our Dragon God, looking at this scene, don't you feel awkward right now?"

Yu Xiaotian stroked Bibi Dong's smooth, long hair.

His old face blushed slightly, but he then said calmly:

"Ahem... looking back now, it was a bit chuunibyo and awkward. But then again..."

A wicked grin spread across his lips:

"The feeling at the time was actually quite satisfying."

He thought, no wonder so many people fall for this; it really gives you a sense of exhilaration!

The feeling of welcoming the Dragon King back was quite nice!

"Hmph~"

Bibi Dong lightly scoffed, but her eyes were filled with adoration.

Blue Tyrant Academy.

Liu Erlong looked at the pale-faced, despairing version of herself on the sky screen.

She didn't feel much emotion, only deep heartache and release.

"At that time, I really felt like the sky had fallen..."

She sighed softly and said to the girl in the sky screen:

"Keep going, other me."

"Even though it hurts now, and you feel betrayed by the whole world, you must get through it..."

"Because he is truly the best person you will ever meet in this life."

"As long as you get past this misunderstanding, everything after is sweet."

Thinking of all that happened later.

Thinking of her cousin who always protected her.

A supremely gentle smile involuntarily appeared on Liu Erlong's face.

Black World.

Martial Soul Hall.

Bibi Dong sat high on the Pope's throne.

She let out a joyful laugh as she watched Liu Erlong's breakdown on the sky screen.

"Hahaha, what a wonderful expression."

A malicious glint flashed in Bibi Dong's eyes:

"So the crazy woman Liu Erlong has her day too?"

"To have the person you considered your confidante be the child of your enemy, that feeling of being toyed with must be wonderful, right?"

"Serves you right, it really serves you right!"

Even though it was the Liu Erlong from a parallel world.

Just seeing this love rival suffer made Bibi Dong feel refreshed, and much of her recent frustration dissipated.

Black World.

Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

Yu Xiaogang watched this scene, his face filled with anxiety and heartache. He turned to Liu Erlong beside him and said:

"Erlong! Did you see that? That Yu Xiaotian is simply a devil!"

Yu Xiaogang tried to poison Liu Erlong's mind at this moment:

"He clearly knows your identity in the parallel world, clearly knows how much you hate the clan, yet he deliberately approached you and became your friend, just to humiliate you at this moment!"

"He's playing you! This kind of person is too calculating, too terrifying!"

However, the real-world Liu Erlong merely watched the sky screen in silence, not uttering a word.

She could imagine how devastated that younger Liu Erlong must have been.

Shrek Academy.

Ning Rongrong, the little gossip expert, was pulling on Dean Flender, constantly pestering him with questions.
