Setting Off, Slay Yu Xiaogang! (Bonus Chapter)

After Liu Yuan's clone gave its reply, it departed in a hurry.

Because he had long premeditated the assassination of Yu Xiaogang, Liu Yuan had been closely monitoring Yu Xiaogang's movements for these past few years.

He knew very well that at this moment, Yu Xiaogang was staying within Shrek Academy in Suotuo City.

Furthermore, this period was actually the best opportunity for Liu Yuan to kill Yu Xiaogang.

This was because although Tang San had already returned from his training in the Capital of Slaughter, he had not yet returned to Yu Xiaogang's side.

After leaving Tang Yuehua, he still had to make a trip to the Star Dou Forest.

According to history, Tang San's original intention at that time was to pick up Xiao Wu and return together, but he did not succeed; in order to protect Tang San, Xiao Wu chose to sacrifice herself, and in the end, Tang San returned to Shrek Academy carrying the hundred-thousand-year soul ring and soul bone he had obtained from her.

The same went for Dai Mubai and the rest of the Shrek Seven Devils.

Ever since they participated in the Soul Master Tournament at Wuhun Hall that day, the Shrek Seven Devils had gone their separate ways.

Some went off to train, while others returned to the Star Luo Empire.

Although they had agreed to reunite at Shrek Academy in a few years, there was clearly still some time left before that deadline.

Therefore, for Liu Yuan, this was the best time to assassinate Yu Xiaogang.

After all, with Tang San and the rest of the Shrek Seven Devils absent, the defenses around Yu Xiaogang were unprecedentedly weak.

And since his own strength was extremely pathetic, with Liu Yuan's current power, there was a high probability that he could successfully kill Yu Xiaogang.

Of course.

This was a possibility, not a certainty.

After all, Flender and Liu Erlong were still by Yu Xiaogang's side.

The strength of those two was quite formidable.

If it were Liu Yuan's true body setting out, he could naturally slaughter them all with ease.

But since Liu Yuan was only sending a clone this time, these two still posed a significant obstacle to him.

But all in all.

This was still the best time for Liu Yuan to assassinate Yu Xiaogang.

If he missed this opportunity, it would become much more difficult for Liu Yuan to assassinate Yu Xiaogang in the future.

After all, Tang San and the rest of the Shrek Seven Devils would eventually return to Yu Xiaogang's side.

By that time, it would likely require Liu Yuan to become the new God of Death to succeed.

This was clearly not the outcome Liu Yuan wanted.

Therefore, he did not waste any time and rushed toward Shrek Academy with great urgency.

Liu Yuan's speed was immense.

Although the distance between the inheritance site of the God of Death and Shrek Academy was vast, by exerting his full power, it only took him about half a month to reach Shrek Academy.

Half a month later, he finally arrived at Shrek Academy.

At this moment, Shrek Academy remained as shabby as it had always been.

The teaching facilities were backward, the school's teachers were of poor quality, and the surrounding environment was also quite wretched.

Yet, this did not change the fact that many students would fight tooth and nail just to join Shrek Academy.

After all, at the Wuhun Hall tournament a few years ago, the Shrek Team led by Tang San had emerged victorious.

Although there had been some twists and turns after that competition, that was clearly not what others cared about.

The only thing others cared about was that the students of the Shrek Team had defeated the students of all other teams, including those from the Wuhun Hall Team.

Therefore, in their eyes, Shrek Academy was sacred! The students taught by Shrek Academy must surely be the best!

As for why the environment here was so poor.

It certainly couldn't be because Shrek Academy was poor.

Their interpretation was: Shrek Academy was indifferent to fame and wealth and didn't care about these superficial things at all! It definitely wasn't because they didn't have the money for renovations!

In any case, with the results of that Wuhun Hall tournament, Shrek Academy had been placed directly on a pedestal in the hearts of many parents.

They would involuntarily beautify the academy in their minds, thereby ignoring many simple and obvious truths.

Of course.

It was impossible for Shrek Academy to have done nothing after becoming famous.

Back when their reputation wasn't high, they already knew how to use hype and gimmicks to swindle gold coins from many parents.

For example, previously, anyone wanting to participate in the Shrek Academy entrance exam had to pay one gold soul coin. This gold soul coin was non-refundable; regardless of whether one passed the exam or not, once paid, it was never returned, and if anyone dared to resist, they would just flash their martial souls.

And their so-called exam was nothing more than a low-level, cost-free assessment of checking one's hand, age, and soul power level.

Back then, they already dared to use such methods to bully ordinary people in order to extort large amounts of gold coins.

Naturally, they have become even more unscrupulous now.

The previous registration fee of one gold soul coin has now been increased tenfold, jumping directly from one gold soul coin to ten.

Furthermore, they have also increased their tuition fees tenfold.

As for the dormitory conditions, Shrek Academy has not changed a single thing.

They euphemistically call it: training the students' willpower in harsh environments.

What else could those parents say?

Ever since the Wuhun Hall tournament, many of them have chosen to blindly trust Shrek Academy, so now, whatever Shrek Academy says is considered correct.

They are the kind of fools who would help count the money for the people who sold them, allowing Yu Xiaogang and the others at Shrek Academy to line their pockets.

Liu Yuan happened to witness this scene exactly when he arrived at the scene.

At this moment, Yu Xiaogang and Flender were standing together, while several Shrek Academy teachers in front of them were busy testing students and collecting money.

Watching those parents hand over their money like fools, Yu Xiaogang and Flender were grinning from ear to ear.

High-minded?

Don't make me laugh!

That was merely a lie they told when they lacked the ability to swindle money.

Once given the opportunity to scam people, they truly wished they could fleece these parents for every last cent!

"Hmph, even after not seeing them for so many years, seeing them again still inevitably makes me feel a wave of disgust."

After witnessing this scene, Liu Yuan let out a cold snort of dissatisfaction.

Especially when he saw some of the parents who were clearly not wealthy, yet for the sake of their children, they still scrimped and saved to pay the ten gold soul coin testing fee, only to be met with a dismissive "your son is not suited for cultivation" from Yu Xiaogang and his cohorts.

Liu Yuan was completely enraged.

He became even more determined in his resolve to kill Yu Xiaogang.

In his eyes, a piece of human trash like Yu Xiaogang should not be allowed to remain in this world any longer.
