Character Issues, Using Tang Hao to Force Entry into the Academy

Yu Xiaogang's body stiffened, and he took two steps back.

"Impossible!"

"My theories absolutely cannot be wrong!"

He defended himself rapidly, "It was impossible for Tang San to cultivate this quickly with a Blue Silver Grass, it was only because of me that he was able to reach level 26!"

Flender did not back down in the slightest, "Regardless, it is impossible for me to let you teach at Shrek Academy,"

"I must be responsible for my students."

Before Yu Xiaogang could speak, Zhao Wuji's voice rang out once more, His tone was equally cold, "Likewise, I will not agree to it either."

Yu Xiaogang looked at Zhao Wuji, "Is it simply because my strength is insufficient?"

"Can you not make an exception for my theoretical knowledge?"

Zhao Wuji crossed his arms over his chest, "Even if your strength were sufficient, I still wouldn't agree."

"Why!"

He said slowly, "Because your character is flawed."

"When we encountered the Titan Giant Ape in the Star Dou Forest, Tang San abandoned his teammates and fled alone."

"I was originally wondering why Tang San would do that, but now I know; it's because he has a teacher like you, a foster father like you!"

"His character stems from you!"

"If one day my students all turned out like that, it would be my own failure."

Yu Xiaogang stared at Zhao Wuji, "Why not run when facing the Titan Giant Ape?"

"Knowing you couldn't win, you'd still go up and throw your life away?"

Zhao Wuji sneered, "So you're saying I should have abandoned those kids and fled alone back then, is that it?"

"With my strength, the chances of escaping safely were high, but as for them, I doubt a single one would have survived."

In an instant, Yu Xiaogang fell silent once again.

"Do you know? Someone asked me to take good care of Tang San, and I even took a beating for it, so I must see it through."

Grandmaster suddenly laughed. He had been at a loss, but after Zhao Wuji's hint, inspiration struck him.

A smile appeared on his face, "Although I didn't know about that, I have guessed it; that person is not someone you can afford to provoke."

"You know?" Flender was surprised, his gaze toward Yu Xiaogang becoming a bit strange.

Yu Xiaogang reached into his robes and pulled out a token, slamming it onto the table. The token bore a clear pattern of six symbols—the highest-ranking token of Martial Soul Hall, the Pope Order!

"This is what he gave me,"

"My role as Tang San's foster father and my teaching of him were both permitted by him,"

"Are you two really going to stop me?"

"Are you going to defy the will of Haotian Mianxia?"

This time, it was Flender and Zhao Wuji's turn to be silent.

"Haotian Mianxia asked you two to take good care of Tang San to protect him; as for the matter of his education, leave that to me."

After a long while, Flender finally let out a breath, "Fine, I can make an exception and let you become a teacher at Shrek Academy,"

"However, you may only teach Tang San, and you will have no authority within the academy."

Yu Xiaogang wanted to push for more, But before he could speak, Flender cut him off, "This is my bottom line. If you don't agree, I don't care if it offends Haotian Mianxia."

Yu Xiaogang's face darkened, but in the end, he said, "Fine."

"You have your demands, and I have mine. If any of them wish to take me as their master, you are not to interfere, and I will be in charge of their instruction."

"Agreed," Flender accepted this without a second thought.

Letting Dai Mubai and the others take him as a master? That was simply impossible.

Yu Xiaogang finally felt he had regained a bit of ground, "Furthermore, let me tell you this: Tang San's potential goes far beyond this,"

"Although Tang San's strength appears low on the surface, his growth potential and plasticity are absolutely the highest. Otherwise, how could he possibly have become my godson?"

Flender stood up with a swish, "Could it be that his Martial Soul is a mutated Blue Silver Grass?"

"Hmph, a mere mutated Martial Soul is not worthy,"

Yu Xiaogang's face was full of pride, "Tang San has Twin Martial Souls!"

Flender plopped back down into his seat. Put that way, Tang San's talent truly belonged at the very top!

However, having top-tier talent and high plasticity is one thing, but it also depends on whether one is molded into a divine statue or a pile of dung.

On the other side, the rest of the students had returned to the dormitory to rest.

Ye Lin took off her upper garments completely inside the room, leaving only a pair of denim hot pants on her lower body.

After absorbing her second Spirit Ring, her figure had become noticeably more mature.

"Wow!"

"Sister Lin, your figure is just too good!"

Xiao Wu lay on the bed, her eyes fixed in a stare at those rounded curves and the clear muscle definition on her long legs.

"If there were more people in the academy, you would definitely be the school beauty anywhere else, and the undisputed number one at that."

"What nonsense are you spouting?"

Ye Lin rolled her eyes helplessly, "Do you believe I'll kick you, you little perverted rabbit?"

"I don't believe it,"

Xiao Wu lay on the bed, propping her chin up with both hands, not hiding her gaze in the slightest.

She looked at herself; she was lacking by more than just a little bit, though she was still much better off than Ning Rongrong.

Ning Rongrong was at the point where it was hard to tell which side was her chest and which was her back.

"By the way, Sister Lin, what are you doing this for?"

"It shouldn't just be to show off your figure in front of me, right?"

Ye Lin turned her head, trying hard to look at her own back, "I'm going to show you something I just obtained,"

"But first, don't be too shocked."

She quickly channeled her spirit power toward her eight ribs.

The Eight God Wings swished out from her back, eight wings, each over two meters long, instantly filling the entire dormitory.

"Wow!"

"Sister Lin, how did you suddenly grow wings!"

"Four pairs."

Xiao Wu jumped off the bed with a thud and quickly stepped forward to touch Ye Lin's Eight God Wings, "What beautiful wings."

"This is what I obtained after absorbing my second Spirit Ring. I call it the Eight God Wings!"

Ye Lin also stroked the Eight God Wings, "According to my estimation, this should be an External Spirit Bone. I obtained it after absorbing a bird that had eight wings."

Xiao Wu's eyes widened, "An External Spirit Bone!"

"The External Spirit Bone that is ranked second in the world of spirit masters' dreams?"

"The one second only to a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ring?"

Ye Lin nodded, "It should be. The Eight God Wings not only possess powerful combat capabilities but also provide me with the ability to fly. I haven't tested the specifics yet."

"I didn't dare to show it while we were outside; it was only after returning to the dormitory that I felt at ease."

Xiao Wu highly approved of Ye Lin's caution, "That's right, those people are all extremely covetous of treasures. If that Spirit Douluo from the other day knew you had an External Spirit Bone, it would have been a disaster."

Thinking of the Spirit Douluo Meng Shu they had encountered that day, Xiao Wu felt a lingering fear.
