He took out his little notebook and wrote it down, then quickly turned and left to go back and hand in his assignment.

Likewise, in Yu Xiaogang's private office at Nuoding Junior Soul Master Academy, he was researching his subject when he saw a man push the door open and walk in. He was stunned at first, then remembered who the man was.

Wasn't he the homeroom teacher of Xiao San's class?

Why had he come here?

And judging by his expression, he did not look pleased.

What exactly had happened?

Then he heard the homeroom teacher's words and, after sorting through them, learned that he had come to complain.

But how could Xiao San and Xiao Wu possibly skip class?

"Yu Xiaogang, what else do you have to say?!" the homeroom teacher asked coldly.

Yu Xiaogang frowned slightly and said slowly, "I don't know about Xiao Wu, but Xiao San is definitely not that kind of person. They must have had something urgent to do, and they didn't tell me either."

"Heh, and how do you know he isn't that kind of person?!" The homeroom teacher's face was stern, his tone carrying a hint of mockery.

After hearing that, Yu Xiaogang's expression darkened. He was displeased as well and said coldly, "I know my own disciple best. It is not your place to sow discord! If I say he wouldn't, then he wouldn't! I will find him and give you an explanation then. You may leave now. You have already interrupted my research!"

"Hmph, remember what you said!"

The homeroom teacher snorted and showed no courtesy to the man before him. A Waste Martial Soul, forever stuck at level 29.

If not for the Dean's connections, he would...

Wait, it seemed he could not really do anything either. Yu Xiaogang was level 29, while his own Soul Power was only level 25...

Lower than Yu Xiaogang's...

His face immediately felt burning hot with embarrassment. He turned and left.

He even left behind a mocking mutter. "A crooked beam produces crooked rafters. What a waste of a good seedling. Such a pity. That brat is an idiot too, he deserves this! Useless trash with no future!"

He shut the door and disappeared.

Hearing that, Yu Xiaogang's face turned livid. His expression was gloomy, his fists clenched, and he wished he could rush out and beat the other man to death. But he calmed down and did not let his reason be overwhelmed by that impulse.

Although he was level 29 and the other man was only level 25, the other man was an Assault System Soul Master with a possessed Beast Martial Soul, while he had Luo San Pao...

If they truly fought head-on, he might not be a match for him.

As someone who studied this field, he was naturally not a fool.

In the end, he loosened his fists and let out a deep sigh, his face full of helplessness and bitterness. "Fate truly is unfair, unfair... If my Martial Soul had not been born flawed and mutated in such a bad direction, I would never have suffered such humiliation today."

No matter what, he was still from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, one of the Upper Three Sects on the continent...

He could not concern himself with that now. He left the office at once to search for Tang San and Xiao Wu. Along the way, he happened to run into Wang Sheng and the others, so he invited them to split up and search together.

At the same time, a Titled Douluo's speed was incredibly fast. Tang Hao had already rushed over from the Back Mountain of Holy Spirit Village at top speed.

The two sides appeared to be separated by a long time, but in reality, it had not even been a minute.

Clear Sky's Fury

Feeling that powerful aura descend, his first reaction was stunned surprise. Then it felt somewhat familiar. Looking up, he saw that the arrival was Tang Hao.

Yu Xiaogang's expression changed slightly. Why had he come? Hadn't he left?

Could something have happened to Xiao San and Xiao Wu?

Upon arriving, Tang Hao immediately restrained his Soul Power so that no one else in the academy noticed him. He landed before Yu Xiaogang and asked in a deep voice, "Where is Xiao San?!"

His Spiritual Power swept the area, and he discovered that his son was gone. That Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast rabbit was gone too!

Something had indeed happened!

Cold sweat ran down Yu Xiaogang's forehead as he immediately reported, "Clear Sky Your Eminence, I don't know either. I was in the study..."

He quickly recounted everything that had happened.

He himself was utterly confused and truly innocent. He knew nothing at all.

From beginning to end, he had only been passively searching.

The next moment, Tang Hao rapidly arrived at the last place where Xiao San and that Soft Bone Rabbit's auras remained. He inspected the surroundings and tried to probe deeper, but he found no other lingering aura.

His brows immediately furrowed tightly.

Yu Xiaogang asked, "Clear Sky Your Eminence, have you found any clues?"

Tang Hao did not answer. Instead, he racked his brains, his heart filled with urgency.

He had actually lost Xiao San.

Spirit Hall definitely did not yet know that Tang San was his son, so this could not have been aimed at Xiao San. That meant the only certainty was that it was because of that Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit.

A transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year Soft Bone Rabbit was incredibly tempting. Even without needing a Titled Douluo, a Soul Douluo could discover it through careful observation.

Xiao San and the transformed Soft Bone Rabbit were no match for such an opponent. Moreover, since no aura had been left behind, this was definitely not something a Soul Douluo could achieve. It had to be at least a Titled Douluo or stronger!

So he continuously began eliminating possibilities in his mind.

Anyone who could come to such a remote place could only be from Spirit Hall!

At that thought, his eyes turned vicious and murderous.

"Spirit Hall!"

He flew directly toward the Spirit Hall Branch.

"Spirit Hall? Could they have done this? If so, perhaps I have a way."

Watching Tang Hao fly away in such urgency, Yu Xiaogang was briefly at a loss. Then he suddenly remembered that he was, after all, an elder of Spirit Hall. He should be able to inquire about something.

Tang Hao arrived at the Spirit Hall Branch, yet he did not sense Tang San or the Soft Bone Rabbit's aura at all.

The people inside sensed that terrifying, overwhelming Killing Intent descending.

They all became terrified.

Su Yuntao, in particular, panicked completely.

"This aura is so terrifying. Could Clear Sky Douluo, the one Your Eminence the Pope mentioned, have come?"

"What do we do? What do we do?"

"Didn't Your Eminence say he wouldn't notice so quickly?"

Su Yuntao's face immediately turned pale, and he was terrified beyond measure. In such fear, it was easiest for one's expression and eyes to betray them.

He had heard of Clear Sky Douluo's ferocious reputation. He was the terrifying existence who had hammered the Previous Pope, Qian Xunji, to death.

Before the other man's hammer, this branch was nothing but fragile tofu.

"Have the person in charge here come out, or I will destroy your branch!!"

Tang Hao's cold, gloomy, furious voice rang out.

He also realized that the cultivations of the people in this small place were too low. They could not even move under the pressure of his aura, so he restrained it considerably.

The guards below trembled in fear and dropped to their knees. That aura was too terrifying, too domineering. They had no strength to resist at all.

"M-my lord, please calm your anger. May I ask what has angered you?" Su Yuntao came running out from inside, trembling as he spoke.

"Su Yuntao, answer me. Did someone from your Spirit Hall capture Tang San?!" Tang Hao asked coldly. "You had better answer me, or I will turn you into minced meat with one blow of my hammer!"

As he spoke, the enormous Clear Sky Hammer floated above Su Yuntao's head, radiating terrifying ferocious might.

Thud!

Su Yuntao's legs went weak from fright. He completely lost his strength and knelt on the ground, trembling in terror. "Your Eminence, don't kill me, don't kill me! I'll talk, I'll talk... They returned to Spirit City..."

Faced with the threat of death, even he, who had previously been the most insistent on keeping silent, betrayed Bibi Dong and the others at this moment and admitted it.

There was no helping it. If he did not speak, he would die.

Once dead, he would have nothing.

However, before leaving, the Holy Son had secretly told him that if he truly faced the threat of Clear Sky's arrival, then under the threat of death, he should tell the other party that they had already returned to Spirit City.

That was because they would set up a heaven-shaking killing formation there and wait for Tang Hao to arrive. Once he came, he would surely never return!

Upon hearing him say that, Tang Hao knew it was indeed so!

He could not be bothered to waste time with this trash. He shot into the sky and flew straight toward Spirit City.

Seeing this, everyone let out a sigh of relief.

"I didn't expect him to discover it so quickly..."

Su Yuntao said bitterly.

"My lord, you told him. Aren't you afraid..."

Several guards beside him asked.

Su Yuntao said, "I'm not afraid. I had the Holy Son's permission. The Holy Son was the one who told me to do this. Over at Spirit City, all of Spirit Hall's Douluos have gathered and are waiting for him to arrive. When Clear Sky arrives, it will be the day of the great battle and his death!"

"No matter what, we drew the battlefield away from here. You won't have to die either. We are all just earning money. There is no need to throw away our lives."

"Treat this matter as if you know nothing."

Su Yuntao immediately stood up and walked inside.

"Yes!" The guards obediently shut their mouths as well.

If it had been them with the Clear Sky Hammer floating above their heads, they would have spoken too.

Especially since he had the Holy Son's permission.

However, just then, a burst of footsteps rapidly rushed over.

"Who goes there?!"

Su Yuntao turned around. The guards had already been frightened badly by what had just happened, and now they were even more on edge.

When they saw that the person was a middle-aged man, they were stunned.

"Wait!"

"You recognize this Token, don't you?"

Yu Xiaogang took an Elder Token belonging to a Spirit Hall elder from his Soul Tool.

"Elder Token!"

Everyone was startled and immediately saluted.

"Elder, what are your orders?"

Su Yuntao immediately asked.

Damn it, why had another wave come before the first one had even settled?

This position was truly not easy to hold.

Yu Xiaogang asked in a deep voice, "Did our people capture Tang San and Xiao Wu? Xiao Wu is the little girl beside Tang San!"

At this point, he still did not know that Xiao Wu was a transformed Hundred-Thousand-Year rabbit.

"Yes!"

Su Yuntao pondered for a moment, then nodded.

There was no helping it. The other man had an Elder Token. There was no way he had simply picked it up.

But why had he never heard of this elder? And why was he so weak, seemingly only a little stronger than himself...

Could he have gotten in through connections?

Besides, as a Spirit Hall elder, why did this man not know about the plan?

Yu Xiaogang's expression changed drastically. He looked in the direction Tang Hao had just left, which was Spirit City.

"Damn it! Something happened!"

He was extremely anxious and had no idea what to do. It was already too late to rush over now.
