Ever since Yu Xiaogang took over the financial reins of Shrek Academy, it was like a bolt from the blue for both the Seven Monsters and Yu Xiaogang himself.
Under Yu Xiaogang's devil training, the Seven Monsters lived a life that was both heavenly and hellish. Yu Xiaogang himself worked two shifts, serving as a teacher at Shrek Academy on weekdays and a tutor at a boxing gym on weekends. Calling him the hardest worker was no exaggeration.
After tasting the benefits of the tutoring class, Flender proactively went to the Great Soul Arena to scout for potential students. It was only after Yu Xiaogang's stern refusal that the number of students was limited to ten.
After all, Yu Xiaogang was running a small, high-quality tutoring class. If there were too many students, he wouldn't be able to teach them all. If the teaching quality declined and his reputation was ruined, it would be a loss that outweighed the gain.
Because of the limited spots, Flender recruited students with good talent. Besides the initial Three Scoundrels, the rest were all captains of Silver Soul teams.
After all, having been the principal of Shrek Academy for so many years, the occupational hazard was unavoidable.
Due to the special identities of the recruited students, Yu Xiaogang indirectly altered the interpersonal relationships of many characters from the original story. For example, these team captains met through the tutoring class and even secretly discussed underground boxing. Yu Xiaogang found it difficult to interfere, as the money they earned from underground boxing was used to pay tuition fees, cough!
But the most surprising thing was Bu Le, one of the Three Scoundrels.
This guy proactively approached Flender and accidentally learned about Ma Hongjun's identity. Instead of becoming sworn enemies like in the original story, the two became good buddies, which truly opened Yu Xiaogang's eyes.
Yu Xiaogang was solely focused on teaching and didn't have the mental capacity to deal with these matters.
Fortunately, the first phase of devil training only lasted three months. After three months of living in dire straits, Yu Xiaogang could finally breathe a sigh of relief and shift the Seven Monsters' training focus to the Great Soul Arena in Suotuo City.
Here, the Seven Monsters officially established their titles.
As their teacher, Yu Xiaogang personally witnessed all of this. He knew that in the near future, these seven titles would shine across the continent like stars in the sky and be forever etched in history.
A year later, inside the Suotuo Great Soul Arena.
Yu Xiaogang and several teachers from Shrek Academy stood together in an exclusive stand, looking down at the arena.
The atmosphere in the entire venue had reached its boiling point, as everyone knew that the outcome was about to be decided.
On the field, a fierce tiger's roar erupted, and a massive energy fluctuation instantly swept outwards.
A giant transparent white tiger stood in the center of the arena, eight meters long and over two meters tall, with white fur and ghost purple markings. Its pair of purple eyes stared coldly at its opponents.
This was the Martial Soul Fusion Skill of Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing, the Hell White Tiger!
The white tiger dissipated instantly after unleashing a single attack, but that one strike crippled Osler and Yu Tianheng on the opposite side.
Both teams on the field had suffered heavy losses. Heaven Dou Royal Academy had lost two people, while Shrek Academy had lost three.
Furthermore, among the remaining Soul Masters on the field, Shrek Academy's overall soul power was significantly lower than Heaven Dou Royal Academy's, putting Shrek Academy at a clear disadvantage.
However, at this very moment, our Tang San stepped forward!
Accompanied by a furious roar, Tang San's shirt instantly exploded, and his Eight Spider Lances, glowing with a ghost purple light, extended from his back.
With the exquisiteness of the Tang Sect's Secret Arts and the domineering neurotoxin of the Eight Spider Lances, Tang San single-handedly defeated the remaining members of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy one by one.
"Team Battle Soul, Shrek Academy wins!"
As the Host announced the victory, cheers like a tsunami erupted from the entire venue.
Everyone turned their gaze to Shrek Academy, looking at the Young Soul Master who led the comeback with the Blue Silver Grass spirit.
However, Yu Xiaogang, standing in the Exclusive Stand, focused his attention on the captain of the losing side, Yu Tianheng.
Outside the Suo Tuo Great Soul Arena, on a secluded street.
Yu Xiaogang had been waiting by the roadside early on. Seeing the Heaven Dou Royal Academy group approaching, he immediately stepped forward and said, "Tianheng, do you still remember your uncle?"
Yu Tianheng looked up in surprise. Although the Moonlight was hazy at the moment, he instantly recognized Yu Xiaogang.
"Uncle, why are you here?"
Yu Xiaogang nodded and said, "Let's go, we can talk nearby."
The two went to a Lake together. Yu Tianheng spoke first, "Uncle, where have you been all these years?"
Yu Xiaogang smiled calmly, "What's past is past, no need to mention it again. I'm looking for you this time because of the Soul Battle just now."
"You saw it too? I'm sorry, I've disgraced the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan." Yu Tianheng's eyes held a hint of dejection.
"No, you didn't." Yu Xiaogang replied very seriously.
Seeing this, Yu Tianheng forced a bitter smile, "No need to comfort me, Uncle. How could I not be disgraced when I was defeated by a Soul Master leading a team with the Blue Silver Grass spirit? This will be the shame of my life."
Child, you've been blinded by appearances!
Yu Xiaogang shook his head helplessly, then said, "First, I need to tell you something. The Soul Master who used the Blue Silver Grass spirit is named Tang San, and he is my disciple."
Yu Tianheng looked at him in shock, "He's your disciple, Uncle!"
"That's right, and he's only thirteen years old. What he showed today is not even his full strength."
Hearing this, Yu Tianheng felt a sense of despair. He frowned tightly, unable to speak for a moment.
Yu Xiaogang stepped forward and patted his shoulder, comforting him, "This is why I came to find you, Tianheng. You must remember that some people in this world cannot be measured by common sense, like Tang San."
"He is special. He is different from you, and from everyone else in this world."
Perhaps only I am his kind! Yu Xiaogang thought to himself.
"Why?" Yu Tianheng asked, confused.
"I can't say too much, but you just need to know that his surname is Tang, and his father's name is Tang Hao."
"Tang Hao, Clear Sky... so that's how it is. A successor of the Clear Sky Sect, yet with the Blue Silver Grass martial soul..." Yu Tianheng gained some information but was met with greater confusion.
Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang said no more. He reached out and took a booklet from the Soul Tool on his wrist, handing it to Yu Tianheng.
"This is a set of soul power cultivation methods I created after many years of research. Following this method will greatly speed up your soul power progression."
This cultivation method was the meditation method Yu Xiaogang had established, mentioned in the original work.
After transmigrating, Yu Xiaogang combined it with the Mysterious Heaven Skill gifted by the system and further improved it. Although its effects weren't as potent as the Mysterious Heaven Skill, it was still an incredibly powerful existence for others.
Yu Tianheng's eyes lit up slightly. He suddenly looked up and said to Yu Xiaogang, "Uncle, can I cultivate with you?"
Yu Xiaogang shook his head and said, "If you cultivate with me, what will those old guys in the clan think?"
Yu Tianheng had clearly overlooked this point, and the light in his eyes extinguished once more.
Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang smiled, "Don't be discouraged, there will be opportunities. Once I prove my martial soul theories, I will return to the clan."
"But those old guys in the clan, I'm afraid..." Yu Tianheng trailed off.
"Don't worry, Uncle will make thorough plans."
Yu Xiaogang turned to look at the lake. Moonlight reflected on the surface, making the entire lake view appear tranquil and serene.
However, beneath the lake's surface lay endless darkness and terror.
"There's one last thing. According to the information I've received, the Martial Soul Hall is preparing its forces and intends to make a move against the Blue Electric Tyrant Dragon Clan."
"Tianheng, when you return to the clan, personally deliver this message to your grandfather and have him make preparations."
Upon hearing this, Yu Tianheng's face immediately showed disbelief.
Yu Xiaogang didn't say anything further. He patted his nephew's shoulder and then turned to leave.
Half a month later.
On the road outside Heaven Dou City.
A convoy drove in from a side road, heading towards the city gates of Heaven Dou City.
At the city gate, several people in the convoy noticed a notice posted on the city wall. Afterward, the group entered Heaven Dou City and headed towards the Blue Tyrant Academy mentioned on the notice.
This group was none other than the teachers and students of Shrek Academy.
To provide the Seven Monsters with a better cultivation environment, Yu Xiaogang and Flender reluctantly disbanded the Tutoring Class. They brought the academy's teachers and students, along with all their belongings, and decided to cooperate with Heaven Dou Royal Academy through Qin Ming.
Upon arriving at Heaven Dou Royal Academy, everyone had a very engaging conversation with the academy's three Committee Members. The potential displayed by the Seven Monsters also greatly impressed the three Committee Members.
Especially Tang San's external soul bone, it made everyone present marvel.
Just as cooperation was about to be reached, a royal family member suddenly came out to disrupt things. Under the might of the Titled Douluo Dugu Bo, the Shrek group had no choice but to endure this humiliation and leave Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
The group walked and stopped within the city, finally arriving at the gates of Blue Tyrant Academy.
After easily passing Blue Tyrant Academy's test, the group, led by the academy teacher, headed towards the woods behind the academy.
At this moment, Yu Xiaogang's expression couldn't help but become somewhat nervous, and a lot of sweat broke out in his palms.
After hearing a period of melodious singing, the group arrived before a small lake.
Various flowers and plants were planted here, and the environment was elegant.
A beautiful woman in her thirties, wearing a green cloth skirt, stopped watering and looked towards the group.
When she saw Yu Xiaogang in the crowd, she was instantly stunned in place.
And on the other side, Yu Xiaogang was also instantly stunned the moment he saw the beautiful woman.
