Public Displays of Affection

It was already night by the time Tang Yu and Tang Xiaomi returned; the two first went to see Yu Xiaogang to report that they were safe before heading back to sleep.

The next morning.

Everyone arrived at the training grounds, where Oscar and Ma Hongjun immediately approached Tang Yu with smiles on their faces. The two each grabbed one of Tang Yu's hands and said, "Hello, hello, my name is Ma Hongjun."

"My name is Oscar."

Tang Yu smiled and replied, "Nice to meet you both."

Ma Hongjun looked at Tang Yu and said, "Brother, can you tell me how you cultivate? You're a Spirit Ancestor at twelve years old, that's freaking awesome! And your spirit rings, my god, four purple and one black!"

"Uh, that? I just spend half an hour a day cultivating, that's all," Tang Yu said modestly.

Ma Hongjun: "..."

Oscar: "..."

Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Tang Xiaomi chuckled softly. They could testify that Tang Yu wasn't bragging; he really only spent half an hour a day cultivating.

"Big boss, sorry to bother you," Ma Hongjun and Oscar said.

As the group chatted, Yu Xiaogang arrived, and everyone immediately fell silent.

Yu Xiaogang stood with his hands behind his back and said, "Tang Yu, go play by yourself on the side."

Everyone: "..."

Tang Yu said with a helpless expression, "Oh."

The others didn't have any objections either. The guy was a Spirit Ancestor at twelve and had even captured a 90,000-year-old spirit beast to use as a mount; did he even need training? He could be a teacher without any issues.

Yu Xiaogang looked at the others and said, "Dai Mubai, step forward."

Dai Mubai immediately took a step forward, and Yu Xiaogang continued, "Your task today is to defeat the other six people, excluding Tang Yu and Tang Xiaomi, one by one without causing any serious injuries."

"Huh?" Dai Mubai was stunned for a moment.

Yu Xiaogang looked at Dai Mubai and said, "Do you have a problem with that?"

"No," Dai Mubai said immediately.

Yu Xiaogang nodded and then said, "Tang San, step forward."

Tang San stepped forward and looked at Yu Xiaogang.

"Later, you are not allowed to use your third spirit ability or any of your hidden weapons," Yu Xiaogang stated.

Tang San nodded without issue.

Dai Mubai spoke up, "This isn't fair. Tang San's spirit power is already lower than mine; if he can't even use his third spirit ability, what's the point?"

"If Tang San were allowed to use his third spirit ability, you wouldn't have a single chance of winning, believe it or not?" Yu Xiaogang said, looking at Dai Mubai.

Dai Mubai clenched his fists in anger; this was just too insulting.

Tang Yu spoke up, "Don't talk so much, why don't you just fight and get it over with?"

Yu Xiaogang rolled his eyes at Tang Yu and said, "If you keep acting up, go back to the dormitory and sleep."

"That won't work, my Xiaomi is still here, I have to stay with her," Tang Yu refused without hesitation.

Tang Xiaomi immediately smiled happily, while the others jeered and teased them.

Yu Xiaogang coughed and said, "Then let's do as Tang Yu suggested. You two have a match; Tang San, you may use your third spirit ability."

Tang San nodded slightly, then stood opposite Dai Mubai. The two quickly engaged in battle, and in the end, Tang San used his third spirit ability, Spider Web Restraint, to lock Dai Mubai up completely. Dai Mubai was thoroughly convinced from the bottom of his heart.

At this moment, Tang Yu suddenly left, returning shortly after with a towel and a cup of Iced Plum Juice. He went to Tang Xiaomi's side to give her the drink and gently wiped the sweat from her forehead.

The others looked at Tang Yu through gritted teeth and shouted, "Grandmaster, we strongly request that you kick Tang Yu out!"
