A Worse Start Than Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang

White World, Spirit Hall.

"Phew, they're finally switching to a different subject. This Heavenly Screen is truly detestable, and so is that Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang. Does he even deserve to be called Yu Xiaogang?"

Bibi Dong angrily pointed at the Heavenly Screen. She had been in this state for quite some time.

In her eyes, her husband, Yu Xiaogang, was the most steadfast man in the world. No matter what danger or hardship he faced, he would never cowardly retreat. He would only choose to press forward against adversity.

Yet the Yu Xiaogang on the Heavenly Screen had actually chosen to pretend to faint during Martial Soul Awakening. That was practically dragging her husband's name through the mud.

"Hmph, the world truly is full of wonders. If not for the Heavenly Screen, I never would have imagined that the kid in a Parallel World could be such a coward."

Not far away, Golden Crocodile Douluo snorted coldly, his face filled with contempt.

Qian Daoliu beside him nodded in agreement.

His eyes had truly been opened as well. Ever since Yu Xiaogang had appeared before him, he had learned what a true heaven-blessed genius was.

Compared to Yu Xiaogang, whether it was himself or the geniuses recorded by Spirit Hall, all of them had been outclassed into the ground.

Even the Angel God, the ancestor of the Qian Family who had founded Spirit Hall, was probably only on Yu Xiaogang's level in Qian Daoliu's mind.

"Just treat the Heavenly Screen as some strange tale. The Yu Xiaogang over there is far too lacking."

Shaking his head, Qian Daoliu gave his assessment.

"It truly is... hard to put into words."

If anyone present was the calmest, it was probably Dragon God Douluo Yu Xiaogang himself.

Watching Yu Xiaogang's performance on the Heavenly Screen, he understood that if he had not transmigrated into this world and replaced Yu Xiaogang, then this was what should originally have happened.

After giving it some thought, Yu Xiaogang ultimately shook his head.

No matter how useless the Yu Xiaogang over there was, he could not affect him. He would simply treat the Heavenly Screen as a story.

And if there was anyone most dissatisfied with Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang's performance, it was undoubtedly Yu Xiaogang's father, Yu Yuanzhen.

Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

"I refuse to acknowledge it! That is absolutely not the son of me, Yu Yuanzhen! What Parallel World? I don't accept it!"

Yu Yuanzhen repeatedly slapped the table, his expression agitated as he tried to distance himself from the Yu Xiaogang on the Heavenly Screen.

He simply could not accept that his son in a Parallel World would be like that. Xiao Gang was the greatest pride of his life. He would not allow anyone to tarnish Xiao Gang's name.

Seeing their sect master so worked up, the elders all looked rather helpless.

"Sect Master, even if you refuse to acknowledge it, that is still..."

"Shut up! If I say he isn't, then he isn't! From now on, that fellow on the Heavenly Screen will be called Yu Xiaoxiao. No one is allowed to call him Yu Xiaogang anymore!"

Yu Yuanzhen's eyes widened, his face making it clear that anyone who disagreed would answer to him.

Seeing this, the elders could only keep quiet.

Still, they could understand why Yu Yuanzhen was acting this way.

Across the entire Douluo Continent, anyone who knew Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen knew that the thing he was proudest of in his life was having a son like Yu Xiaogang.

Whenever he appeared at gatherings between major factions, anyone wishing to flatter Yu Yuanzhen only needed to praise Yu Xiaogang lavishly in front of him to make him beam with joy.

And whenever he traded Mouth Cannon with other Titled Douluo, Yu Yuanzhen could barely go three sentences without mentioning Yu Xiaogang. His opponents could not even refute him, which was infuriating.

Under such circumstances, how could playing a humiliating video of Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang not enrage him?

And beyond the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, everyone across the White World who knew Yu Xiaogang also cursed Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang shown on the Heavenly Screen.

Basically, no one was willing to admit that Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang was the same person as the Yu Xiaogang they knew.

Amid such an atmosphere, the video about Dragon God Douluo Yu Xiaogang finally began to play.

[An estate within the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.]

["Waaah!"]

[With a cry, a newborn baby arrived in the Douluo Continent. His father, Yu Yuanzhen, named him Yu Xiaogang with great excitement.]

The exact same beginning as Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang's caused the speculation that Dragon God Douluo Yu Xiaogang's changes had originated from his parents to collapse instantly.

Everyone in the Dark World who knew Yu Xiaogang's circumstances frowned at that moment.

[As the son of the sect's only Titled Douluo, Yu Xiaogang had carried the expectations of everyone in the sect from the moment he was born.]

[However, not long after his birth, the servants responsible for caring for Yu Xiaogang discovered that something was wrong with him.]

["What did you say? Xiao Gang might have mental problems?"]

[In Yu Xiaogang's room, Yu Yuanzhen stared wide-eyed at the woman caring for Yu Xiaogang.]

["There really does seem to be a problem. Over the past few days, we've noticed that Young Master Xiao Gang's eyes always look blank and foolish. He is nowhere near as alert as other newborn children."]

["Besides that, we tried using things to interact with him, but he rarely responded to us."]

[The woman's expression was somewhat regretful.]

[In truth, she had already put it very mildly. Saying there might be a mental problem was only meant to comfort Yu Yuanzhen. The real situation was that this child might be an idiot.]

A thunderous blow right at the opening.

Everyone had originally thought that Yu Xiaogang, who could become a Titled Douluo, had to be a top-tier heaven-blessed genius.

Standing up in three days, walking in seven, running in ten, reading and recognizing words in half a month, speaking eloquently after one month.

Yet in the end, he might have had something wrong with his brain from the start. Could someone like that become a Titled Douluo?

Dark World, Shrek Academy.

"An idiot actually surpassed me? I don't believe it! This Heavenly Screen must have been made by one of my enemies to humiliate me!"

Yu Xiaogang pointed at the Heavenly Screen and roared.

Other than that, he could not think of any reason why he would be inferior to an idiot.

The people beside him, who had originally mocked Yu Xiaogang, also looked at one another in bewilderment. They began to wonder whether it really was as Yu Xiaogang had said—that someone had created the Heavenly Screen to humiliate him.

Otherwise, they could not understand how an idiot had become a Titled Douluo.

White World, Spirit Hall.

Qian Daoliu, Golden Crocodile Douluo, and the others looked at the Heavenly Screen, then at Yu Xiaogang beside them. For a moment, they began to question life itself.

With a start like that, it was truly incredible that you managed to turn things around!

"Xiao Gang, you..."

Bibi Dong, who loved Yu Xiaogang most dearly, already had reddened eyes at this moment. Even she had not known about this.

"Don't be sad. It was actually a good thing."

Yu Xiaogang pulled Bibi Dong into his arms and continuously comforted her.

Looking at his younger self on the Heavenly Screen, he could not help feeling a trace of nostalgia.

He had transmigrated over before Yu Xiaogang was even born.

After transmigrating, his consciousness, carrying the memories of his previous life, merged with the fetus. His mental power far surpassed that of an ordinary infant, and combined with the confusion of being in the womb, it left him in a muddled state for a long time.

He could sense everything, but he could not perfectly control his body.

Still, there were benefits. His mental power far surpassed that of children his age, laying the foundation for his later growth.
