Flender and Yu Xiaogang Sever Ties Completely

At these words, several large question marks practically floated above Xiao Wu's forehead.

Wait, what exactly was Tang Hao saying?

Now he wasn't even pretending anymore, directly trying to forcibly keep her penned up as a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Ring.

Saying he'd take her away from this dangerous place—Xiao Wu wanted to say that the most dangerous person was him.

The Heavenly Curtain had just started playing, and Shrek was in a remote area; the people from Martial Soul Hall couldn't possibly come here.

What Tang Hao said nearly made Xiao Wu laugh in anger.

"Xiao Wu, why don't you come with me and my father for now?"

At this moment, Tang San also stepped forward, pulling Xiao Wu into his arms and gently comforting her:

"My father has no ill intentions. Think about it—if he wanted to do something to you, he would have done it long ago, not waited until now."

"And although the people from Martial Soul Hall won't come here for now, what about the forces around Shrek? Even if they don't have top-tier combat power like Titled Douluo,"

"capturing a thirty-first-level Soul Elder like you is more than enough. You'll be safest with us."

Finally, Tang San looked at Xiao Wu with sincere eyes and vowed:

"If you don't trust my father, can you at least trust me?"

Hearing Tang San's words, Xiao Wu's heart gradually wavered. Finally, she took a deep breath as if making some major decision.

"Alright, Third Brother, I trust you. I'll go with you."

Seeing Xiao Wu agree, Tang Hao nodded in satisfaction.

At the same time, he was very pleased with Tang San's performance.

This kid's skill at coaxing soul beasts had the same flair as when he himself had coaxed Ah Yin back in the day.

If only Tang San were really his biological son.

Thinking this, Tang Hao let out a faint sigh.

But soon, Tang Hao pulled himself out of his low mood and grabbed Tang San and Xiao Wu by the arms.

As they were leaving, Tang Hao swept his cold gaze over Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, Ma Hongjun, Ning Rongrong, and Oscar.

Tang Hao warned them in a detached tone:

"You're all smart people, and you're also Xiao San and Xiao Wu's teammates. I don't want any of you to do anything to betray Xiao San or Xiao Wu."

Hearing Tang Hao's warning, Dai Mubai and the others were so frightened they nodded repeatedly.

After this threat, Tang Hao prepared to take Xiao Wu and Tang San and flee Shrek Academy, this place of trouble.

But just as Tang Hao was about to leave, urgent footsteps and shouts came from the distance.

"Clear Sky Crown, Clear Sky Crown!"

"Xiao San, Xiao San, wait for me!"

Tang San looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was his cheap teacher and Dean Flender running toward them.

"Father, wait a moment. My teacher is here."

Tang San stopped Tang Hao, who was about to leave, and then walked toward Yu Xiaogang.

After reaching Yu Xiaogang, Tang San made his farewell to the arriving Yu Xiaogang and Flender:

"Teacher, Father is taking me and Xiao Wu away from Shrek Academy. I'm truly sorry."

Flender looked at Tang Hao behind Tang San, a sense of reluctance in his heart.

After all, Tang San was destined to become a god in the future. With Tang San, their Shrek Academy would surely become famous.

Perhaps the reason their Shrek Academy might one day become the top academy on the Douluo Continent was precisely because of Tang San.

Flender was extremely unwilling to let go of this golden ticket.

But Flender also knew that Tang San and Xiao Wu leaving with Tang Hao now was the best choice.

One was a future god, the other a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast—their little Shrek Academy simply couldn't protect them.

"No... no, wait a moment..."

"Huff... huff... huff..."

Yu Xiaogang bent over, gasping for breath.

He had run all the way from the west side of the academy to the east, nearly running himself to death.

And he was practically furious.

Flender, a Soul Douluo, hadn't even bothered to carry him—didn't he know Yu Xiaogang wasn't good at running?

"What is it, Teacher? Is there something else?"

Hearing Yu Xiaogang tell him to wait, Tang San looked at him in confusion. At the same time, Tang Hao also looked at Yu Xiaogang with a puzzled expression.

He wondered what this twenty-ninth-level theory master was up to now.

Under everyone's gaze, Yu Xiaogang continued to explain while panting heavily:

"Xiao San, Clear Sky Crown, take me with you. Since Xiao San is leaving, as his teacher, I should go as well."

"Xiao San is now at a critical stage of growth. As the one who raised a god, I must keep a close eye on him."

Upon hearing this, Flender, standing beside Yu Xiaogang, immediately widened his eyes.

Back then, Yu Xiaogang had made Tang San study, and then he himself had tagged along without a second thought.

Now, how much time had passed before he wanted to leave?

Did he take Shrek Academy for a joke? Come and go as he pleased?

But compared to Flender's anger, Tang Hao and Tang San sank into contemplation.

Although Yu Xiaogang was a twenty-ninth-ranked waste, the Heavenly Curtain's first highlight had been him.

And it had said he was the one who taught Tang San to become a god. Now, because of the Heavenly Curtain's exposure, Tang San had no choice but to leave Shrek Academy.

This created a deviation in the timeline. It was very possible that without Yu Xiaogang's guidance, the factor that led to future godhood would be missing.

After some deliberation, Tang Hao nodded.

"Alright, Grandmaster. You'll come with us too."

Hearing Tang Hao agree to take him along, Yu Xiaogang's face instantly bloomed into a smile as bright as a chrysanthemum.

"Clear Sky Crown, this will be the most correct decision you've ever made."

"Then let's hurry. Otherwise, people will start coming to Shrek Academy soon."

"Good. Then let's leave this place immediately."

And so, Yu Xiaogang followed Tang Hao away, without even a word of farewell to his old friend Flender.

Dai Mubai silently walked over to Flender's side and said in a low voice.

"Dean Flender, Grandmaster is gone."

"Don't mention him to me. Shrek Academy has never had anyone called Grandmaster."

Flender spat out these words in anger, then left alone.

He had finally seen Yu Xiaogang's true face. The two had completely broken ties.

Watching Flender's retreating figure, the Shrek group exchanged glances, not knowing what to say.

On the other side, feeling the speed of a Titled Douluo's escape, Yu Xiaogang was beaming with joy.

This speed was something he, a twenty-ninth-ranked Soul Grand Master, had never experienced before.

Suddenly, Yu Xiaogang asked curiously:

"Clear Sky Crown, where are we going next?"

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's question, Xiao Wu, who was nearby, also pricked up her ears, wanting to know what Tang Hao planned to do next.

She really didn't trust Tang Hao's character!

At Yu Xiaogang's inquiry, Tang Hao smirked wickedly, his gaze subtly shifting toward the nervous Xiao Wu, and said calmly:

"Let's send Xiao Wu back to the Star Dou Forest first."
