Of course, he was indeed very anxious, but at this moment, Liu Yuan still chose not to make a move.
The reason he did not act was the same as before.
That was because Yu Xiaogang was now accompanied by Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and the others.
The strength of Dai Mubai and his companions was not to be underestimated.
Although they were all ants in front of Liu Yuan's true form, he had only sent a clone this time.
Therefore, with the capabilities of his clone, he still could not deal with Dai Mubai and the others.
He could only choose to wait for an opportunity once again.
As for Yu Xiaogang's side.
After meeting up with Dai Mubai's group.
Yu Xiaogang took them all directly to a hotel to dine together.
Although Yu Xiaogang had made something of himself now, he was very clear about the influence of Dai Mubai and the others before him.
Dai Mubai and the others would certainly achieve great things in the future, so Yu Xiaogang wanted to build a good relationship with them early on. Especially Dai Mubai and Zhuqing, as they were very likely to be the future Emperor and Empress of the Star Luo Empire. Since that was the case, he had to be even more careful in how he handled them.
As long as he befriended them now and climbed up the social ladder, there would surely be no shortage of benefits for him in the future.
Therefore, he naturally would not be the least bit stingy when treating Dai Mubai and the others.
He brought Dai Mubai and the others directly to the best restaurant in Suotuo City.
Then, he treated them to fine wine and food.
If it weren't for the fact that Ning Rongrong and Zhuqing were also present, he would have called two young ladies to keep them company.
Yu Xiaogang knew very well that Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun were fond of that sort of thing.
They soon began their meal.
However, when it came time to pay the bill, something happened that made Yu Xiaogang feel extremely smug.
He had originally intended to pay the bill after finishing the meal at the table.
He didn't expect that two nobles passing by would happen to recognize Yu Xiaogang.
"Yo! Isn't this the number one theorist on the Douluo Dalu, Grandmaster! Mr. Yu Xiaogang!"
When the noble saw Yu Xiaogang, his eyes lit up, and he greeted him very respectfully.
Yu Xiaogang naturally didn't remember this noble; he had seen too many nobles to remember them one by one.
So, his original intention was to just brush him off.
Unexpectedly, the next second, the noble took out his affiliate gold card and waved at a waiter nearby.
"Come, swipe mine!"
"Consider this meal my token of gratitude to Mr. Yu Xiaogang!"
"My child is studying at your Shrek Academy, and the results are truly excellent! In just two years, his spirit power has increased by six levels."
"I wouldn't even dare to imagine that at other academies!"
The noble laughed heartily, continuously expressing his gratitude to Yu Xiaogang.
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang felt extremely smug inside.
He used to be a nobody.
But now, he had begun to make a name for himself.
Did you see that? Even a noble like this had to be respectful when facing him, Yu Xiaogang, and even took the initiative to pay for their meal!
This was the power of Yu Xiaogang!
Thinking of this, Yu Xiaogang was overjoyed.
He no longer had any intention of brushing them off, but instead put on an inscrutable expression and smiled, "It's nothing, it's nothing."
"Although it is true that the teaching strength of our Shrek Academy is powerful, your son is also diligent and eager to learn; otherwise, he certainly wouldn't have achieved such results."
"At the end of the day, it's all thanks to good upbringing!"
The noble was delighted to hear this: "As expected of Grandmaster, your words hit the nail on the head! Hahaha!"
The waiter had originally walked up intending to settle the bill with the noble.
But having heard the content of their conversation, he looked at Yu Xiaogang with eyes full of shock: "You are Grandmaster?"
"Wait a moment!"
He quickly ran to the back, and after a short while, he brought out the restaurant owner.
The restaurant owner was also extremely respectful toward Yu Xiaogang.
"So it is Grandmaster who has arrived!"
"Oh! How could Grandmaster possibly pay for a meal?"
"This meal is on me, Grandmaster!"
"It is our honor to have Grandmaster here! You have truly brought splendor to our humble establishment!"
The restaurant owner was frantically buttering up Yu Xiaogang.
He didn't actually have any personal connection to Yu Xiaogang.
However, being a savvy marketer, he knew very well that if he seized this opportunity, his restaurant would have another selling point in the future.
"Even Yu Xiaogang comes to our restaurant to eat!"
Isn't that enough to prove the high status of this establishment?
Thinking of this, the restaurant owner took the initiative and waived the bill for Yu Xiaogang's meal.
This made Yu Xiaogang feel even more radiant.
He smiled and thanked the restaurant owner, his ego swelling to the point of bursting.
Satisfied!
Extremely satisfied!
He, Yu Xiaogang, was now a big shot!
"Hmph! Nothing but a charlatan and a fraud."
However, Liu Yuan, who was watching from the shadows, was extremely displeased by this scene.
He simply couldn't stand to see Yu Xiaogang doing well.
The more smug Yu Xiaogang became, the more annoyed he felt.
And to be honest, the growth of these students had nothing to do with Yu Xiaogang at all.
After all, the students recruited by Shrek Academy were all geniuses to begin with, all possessing innate soul power of level six or higher.
For soul masters of this caliber, only gaining six levels in two years only served to prove Yu Xiaogang's incompetence.
Yet now, it had become his capital for boasting.
This truly made Liu Yuan feel angry.
"I can't watch this anymore. I must kill him tonight."
Thinking this, Liu Yuan let out a cold snort.
Because the arrival of Dai Mubai and the others had already set off alarm bells in Liu Yuan's heart, seeing Yu Xiaogang so smug now made him even more unable to endure it.
Therefore, Liu Yuan made his decision right then and there.
He continued to tail Yu Xiaogang and his group.
After finishing their meal, Yu Xiaogang and the others soon returned to Shrek Academy.
Afterward, they each returned to their respective dormitories.
It was now late at night, and in a little while, it would be the dead of night.
That would be the best time for Liu Yuan to strike.
Liu Yuan waited outside for a long time.
During this time, he specifically observed the situation in Flender's room and found that the lights there remained dark; it seemed he hadn't returned to his dormitory yet.
However, the lights in Liu Erlong's room were very bright.
So, Liu Yuan dared not act rashly until she turned off the lights and went to sleep.
Liu Yuan waited in place for a long time.
Finally, he waited until the lights in Liu Erlong's room went out.
Yet he still didn't rush to act, instead waiting for another hour or two.
It was now one o'clock in the morning.
The entire Shrek Academy was silent.
He believed everyone must be asleep by now.
"Time to act."
Only then did Liu Yuan let out a cold sneer, summoned his martial soul, and prepared to enter the room to execute Yu Xiaogang directly.
Now that he was entering, as long as he acted quietly, he would definitely be able to kill without a trace.
Tomorrow, when everyone woke up, they wouldn't see Yu Xiaogang.
By the time they went to Yu Xiaogang's room to look for him, Yu Xiaogang would have long been dead!
At most, they would only see a corpse.
Therefore, by that time, everything would be too late, and Liu Yuan's goal would be fully achieved!
