Yu Xiao Gang's Defense Shattered

"Dean Flender, what kind of spell did Yu Xiao Gang cast on you? You've already figured out the method for my Martial Soul Evolution, so according to this theory, isn't Yu Xiao Gang just a liar? Why are you still asking me to help him?"

"If he were truly a Master, his Martial Soul should have evolved into the Radiant Sacred Dragon, not remained a pig like it is now."

"And isn't he a Master? He should be well-versed in the information of various Martial Souls and Soul Beasts. How could he not recognize that Dean Liu's Martial Soul should be a mutation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon?"

"In my opinion, when he met the two of you back then and discovered that your three Martial Souls could perform a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, coupled with your Golden Iron Triangle, the Golden Sacred Dragon Fusion Skill was led by him."

"He must have recognized Dean Liu's Fire Dragon Martial Soul as a mutation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon at that time."

"Furthermore, their two Martial Souls naturally have a close affinity as they come from the same family. That's why this situation has come about."

"If it weren't for Yu Xiao Gang's interference, you and Dean Liu Erlong would probably have had children who had already awakened their Martial Souls by now."

After speaking, Su Ming looked at Flender with a look of disappointment.

After hearing Su Ming's words, Flender fell silent for a moment.

Just as Su Ming thought Flender would give up on helping Yu Xiao Gang, Flender spoke:

"Su Ming, please help Xiao Gang."

"Dean Flender, it's not that I won't help, but I feel it's not worth it for you and Dean Liu to be delayed so long by Yu Xiao Gang."

Su Ming took a deep breath after speaking.

"Let's go."

Su Ming then summoned his Martial Soul and flew towards the reception room on the fourth floor of the teaching building. Flender followed closely behind, quickly surpassing Su Ming and flying ahead.

The two soon arrived at the door of the reception room.

As soon as they entered, Yu Xiao Gang, who had been chatting with Liu Erlong, stood up and hurried over to greet them.

Yu Xiao Gang greeted Flender and then looked at Su Ming behind Flender.

"This must be Su Ming, he certainly looks like a talented individual."

Su Ming ignored Yu Xiao Gang and walked directly to a seat, sitting down opposite him.

Seeing Su Ming sit down directly, Flender patted Yu Xiao Gang's shoulder and sat down next to Liu Erlong.

Yu Xiao Gang was the only one left standing. As Yu Xiao Gang's disciple, Tang San had naturally come.

Seeing Yu Xiao Gang standing there awkwardly alone, Tang San, as his disciple, naturally had to break the ice.

Tang San, who had been sitting next to Yu Xiao Gang's seat, stood up and shouted at Su Ming:

"Su Ming! My Master, the Great Master, just greeted you, why did you ignore him?"

"Furthermore, as a junior, you disrespect my teacher, an elder, and just sat down. Apologize to my teacher quickly."

Su Ming snorted coldly and ignored Tang San. Instead, he looked at Yu Xiao Gang, who had walked over and sat down after Tang San spoke.

"Master, if you have something to say, say it quickly. If not, I'm leaving, I have things to do."

Seeing this, Yu Xiao Gang comforted Tang San, signaling him to sit down. After Tang San sat down, Yu Xiao Gang looked at Su Ming kindly and said:

"I heard that Dugu Yan, a member of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy team, had her Martial Soul evolve because of you. As a Master, I naturally want to discuss the latest Martial Soul theories with Su Ming."

Su Ming, sitting opposite Yu Xiao Gang, interrupted without hesitation:

"Stop bullshitting. Aren't you just here because you can't solve your own Martial Soul mutation problem and want my help?"

"Discuss what? You're here to plagiarize, aren't you?"

Seeing Su Ming slandering Yu Xiao Gang like this, Tang San slapped the table with both hands and stood up, pointing at Su Ming with a furious expression.

"I won't allow you to slander my teacher like this, apologize to my teacher now."

"Apologize for what? What kind of Master is he? His theories are only possible because he is the son of Yu Yuanzhen, the Sect Master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, which allowed him to go to the Martial Soul Hall and view their accumulated books and Soul Beast data."

After Su Ming spoke, Yu Xiao Gang's face turned red, partly from anger and partly from shame, as he knew where his theories came from.

Tang San quickly retorted.

"Then what about my teacher's Ten Core Competitiveness Theories?"

Su Ming was amused by this and stared at Yu Xiao Gang with a playful expression, refuting Tang San's words.

"Come, come, tell me, is the first of his Ten Core Competitiveness Theories, 'There are no useless Martial Souls, only useless Soul Masters'?"

Tang San raised his chin proudly.

"That's right."

"Then tell me, what is Yu Xiao Gang's Martial Soul?"

"Is it a mutated Martial Soul?"

"Did his Martial Soul mutation fail, resulting in congenital level 0.5 Soul Power?"

"What is his current level? Is he level 30?"

"Yu Xiao Gang is over 50 years old and still a level 29 Soul Grand Master. Is he useless?"

As Su Ming continued his barrage, Tang San's expression grew increasingly grim, as Su Ming was speaking the truth.

"Tang San, you should recognize me by now, shouldn't you?"

"We're from the same village. Back when we were heading to Nuoding City to report in, he heard you had Innate Full Soul Power and snatched the soul certification right out of my hand. He flipped to the first page, saw it was my certification—Innate Level 6—and then Yu Xiao Gang just threw the paper right in my face."

"A guy with Innate Level 0.5 looking down on me, someone with Innate Level 6. Tell me, isn't that laughable?"

Hearing Su Ming say that he and Tang San were from the same village, Yu Xiao Gang suddenly remembered, and his expression turned even uglier. At that moment, Yu Xiao Gang wished he could tear Su Ming to shreds.

Why? Why have I worked so hard for so many years without my Martial Soul evolving, yet a little brat like him can do it? How is he able to evolve his Martial Soul? Why? Why?!

No! No! I can't get angry, I can't get angry. I still need to solve the problem with my Martial Soul. I must evolve into the Golden Sacred Dragon. I must become a Titled Douluo. Once I become a Titled Douluo, I will make everyone who looked down on me pay the price.

Seeing Tang San fall into silence, Yu Xiao Gang suppressed his rage, squeezed out a smile, and asked Su Ming cautiously.

"Su Ming, we've talked so much, and you've vented your frustrations from back then. Why don't you take a look at my Martial Soul?"

"Oh? So you know I'm right? Truly worthy of being called 'Master'—your skin is certainly thick."

"But I haven't finished yet. I still have to address his second standard for Soul Ring age limits."

"Isn't that standard just the median value you derived from the vast amount of data on Soul Ring acquisition ages registered by low-level Soul Masters in the Martial Soul Hall?"

"And there's more."

As he spoke, Su Ming looked toward Flender and Liu Erlong, who were watching quietly from the side.

"You've read so many books, and your own Martial Soul is a mutation of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. I refuse to believe you didn't recognize it when you first met Flender and Liu Erlong."

"It was only because your soul power was low, and you knew the shock the Trinity Martial Soul Fusion Skill would cause in the Soul Master world. You were afraid that once the Trinity Martial Soul Fusion Skill made a name for itself, people would say you were nothing but a piece of trash."

"That's why you tacitly accepted Liu Erlong's affection."

"And that affection most likely stemmed from your Martial Souls being of the same lineage. As for you, you silently enjoyed it, keeping Flender and Liu Erlong apart for all this time."
