With this thought, Lan Minghua roughly guessed why the people from Martial Soul Hall and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect weren't making a move against him.
Although the relationship between the Upper Three Sects wasn't as good as stated, neither the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan nor the Clear Sky Sect had come out to deny it.
This was because they were all wary of Martial Soul Hall.
The Upper Three Sects had long seen through Martial Soul Hall's ambition.
Because of this ambition, the Upper Three Sects were destined to stand on opposite sides of Martial Soul Hall.
And in a one-on-one fight, none of the Upper Three Sects were a match for Martial Soul Hall.
Therefore, when Ning Fengzhi uttered the phrase "the Upper Three Sects are of one heart and one mind," neither the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan nor the Clear Sky Sect had come out to deny it.
Because they knew that this statement, while making them wary of Martial Soul Hall, would also make Martial Soul Hall wary of them.
Thus, that statement was all benefit and no harm to the Upper Three Sects; how could they not use it?
Martial Soul Hall not making a move against Lan Minghua was precisely to see if the Upper Three Sects were truly of one heart and one mind.
If the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Clear Sky Sect made no move to aid the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, then the claim of the Upper Three Sects being of one heart and one mind would be a joke.
If the Upper Three Sects were truly of one heart and one mind, then they would have to make a move against me.
Martial Soul Hall clearly understood my strength, wanting me to fight the Upper Three Sects to a mutual destruction so they could reap the benefits.
What a scheme!
Lan Minghua let out a cold laugh as he thought this.
He finally understood why the people from Martial Soul Hall and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect hadn't acted.
It was because they were all waiting, all scheming.
Martial Soul Hall didn't act because they weren't in a hurry.
Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect didn't act because their strength was insufficient, and they were afraid of their lie being exposed.
Their schemes caused no loss to Lan Minghua.
"You all can continue to stall. Anyway, the name of the Heavenly Dragon Gang has already been spread. The longer you drag this out, the more people will think you're afraid of the Heavenly Dragon Gang."
Lan Minghua knew very well that with the news of Ning Fengzhi's death spreading, his name and the Heavenly Dragon Gang's name would also spread.
If Martial Soul Hall and Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect didn't act, others would naturally assume they feared the Heavenly Dragon Gang's strength.
Lan Minghua wouldn't object to such free, costless publicity.
"You all can continue to stall. This is truly all benefit and no harm to me."
Lan Minghua originally had a trace of worry, after all, his comprehensive strength was equivalent to a level 98 Titled Douluo, which was not truly invincible on the continent.
Even with various martial arts, it might not be enough to make up for that level gap.
If Qian Daoliu personally made a move, the outcome of their battle would still be unknown.
However, there was no longer any need to worry.
Lan Minghua looked at the Roleplay Progress reaching forty-nine percent, and the last bit of concern in his heart disappeared.
"When soldiers come, block them; when water comes, cover it with earth. You can just slowly wear yourselves out."
With that, Lan Minghua no longer paid attention to the actions of the Martial Soul Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and continued to lie down and teach his disciples.
In Shrek Academy, Yu Xiaogang looked at Lan Minghua lying on the rooftop with great envy.
After all, his disciples were all geniuses no less than Tang San, and even surpassed Tang San.
"Damn it, if those few people had taken me as their master, all my theories could have been verified. It's a pity they took Lan Minghua, someone who doesn't understand martial souls at all, as their master."
Yu Xiaogang only dared to complain about this in his heart, not daring to say it out loud.
After all, he had personally witnessed Ning Fengzhi die before his eyes.
Lan Minghua killed the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect as easily as killing a chicken. He was merely the son of the Sect Master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and not many people even knew about that.
What kind of deterrence did such an identity have?
Moreover, Oscar and the others were not fools; they wouldn't abandon a powerful Titled Douluo to become disciples of a Soul Grand Master.
For the sake of his own life, Yu Xiaogang did not dare to poach disciples easily.
However, he had not given up. He wanted to teach Tang San and the others to be even stronger than Oscar and the others, thereby making Oscar and the others tempted.
After all, he was very confident in his theories and his ability to teach disciples, believing that all geniuses should listen to him.
Thinking of this, Yu Xiaogang was overjoyed.
He put on a stern face and lectured Tang San and the others who were carrying stones: "You guys run faster, don't let those lazy people overtake you!"
Hearing this, Lan Minghua on the rooftop glanced at Yu Xiaogang.
And spat out two words: "Idiot."
Did Yu Xiaogang not know that Oscar and Zhu Zhuqing were already level 40, and Meng Yiran was level 39?
Among Tang San and the others, the highest soul power was Dai Mubai's, who was only level 37.
Moreover, the advantages brought by the Immortal Herbs would last for a long time.
What could Tang San and the others possibly use to catch up?
With their heads, of course!
And you, Yu Xiaogang, say Oscar and the others are lazier than Tang San and his group?
That's just poverty limiting your imagination.
Since when does weighted training require relying on carrying stones in such a LOW fashion?
Lan Minghua didn't even bother to look at Yu Xiaogang, whose hair was short and whose vision was equally limited.
If Oscar or any of them were truly deceived by Yu Xiaogang, then such foolish disciples were better off without.
Oscar and the other two, training with their Gravity Sensing Bracelets not far away, couldn't help but twitch their mouths upon hearing this.
"Pah, that old thing is trying to provoke us. If he weren't the Dean's friend, I'd really want to slap him twice."
Oscar was utterly speechless. He couldn't understand why Yu Xiaogang would say such a thing.
Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran strongly agreed. They really wanted to slap Yu Xiaogang, this level 29 Soul Grand Master, twice.
However, it wasn't their fault for thinking this way.
They had activated their Gravity Sensing Bracelets much earlier, and the weight they carried was far heavier than the stones Tang San and the others were carrying.
Moreover, they couldn't relax even when sleeping, carrying the weight almost twenty-four hours a day.
Tang San and the others merely ran with stones in the afternoon and could relax in medicinal baths at night.
Comparing the two, who the hell was the lazy one?
Yu Xiaogang noticed Oscar and the others weren't moving and were staring intently at him.
This filled him with immense surprise.
"They're looking at me, they're looking at me! It seems they are also very envious of the training I've set for Xiao San and the others!"
Yu Xiaogang thought smugly, already fantasizing about Oscar and the others defecting and becoming his disciples.
If such a thing were to happen, then his name, Yu Xiaogang, would echo throughout the entire continent.
After all, snatching disciples from Titled Douluo was a unique feat.
Imagining this, Yu Xiaogang's mouth stretched into a grin that reached his ears.
Seeing his expression, Oscar and the other two looked disgusted and quickly resumed their training.
Their expressions were as if looking at him any longer would make their eyeballs explode.
Dai Mubai, following behind Tang San and running with rocks on his back, had a look of impatience.
"Tang San, can this training your teacher set up really make me stronger? Why can't I feel any effect?"
Dai Mubai watched Zhu Zhuqing grow stronger day by day, which ignited his competitive spirit.
He had only reluctantly followed the training because Tang San had bragged about Yu Xiaogang's invincible theories.
When Tang San heard Dai Mubai question Yu Xiaogang, his face immediately darkened, and he said, "Mubai, if you don't believe my teacher, then go train by yourself."
Dai Mubai, hearing Tang San's impolite words, explained helplessly, "Oscar and the others have Gravity Sensing Bracelets. Can we really improve by carrying rocks?"
They had personally witnessed Lan Minghua giving the disciple-receiving gifts, and they all knew that Oscar and the others were training with Gravity Sensing Bracelets.
That thing was far more efficient than their rock-carrying training.
Upon hearing this, Tang San fell silent.
Compared to Oscar and the others, their training had no advantages and was instead a disadvantage.
However, he still believed in Yu Xiaogang, believing in his teacher whose theories were invincible.
"Teacher must have a deep meaning for letting us do this. We just need to do our best."
After speaking, Tang San said no more and continued to run with the rocks on his back.
