Tang San: You've Once Again Found the Way of Seeking Death!

Spirit City, Pope Palace.

News of what had recently happened at Nuoding Academy had already been placed before Bibi Dong.

For Spirit Hall to protect its geniuses and prevent them from being murdered or won over by other forces, this kind of surveillance was necessary.

After all, a genius who had not yet grown up was not truly a genius.

But the intelligence presented today nearly made Bibi Dong explode with rage.

That Jiang Liang actually dared treat her Xiaogang like that!

What was even more hateful was that she could not refute the things Jiang Liang had said about Yu Xiaogang.

Damn brat, you have already embarked on the Way of Secret Room!

Bibi Dong was so angry that her ample chest heaved violently. She threw the report to the floor and stomped on it several times.

But after venting her anger, she gradually calmed down.

Were Xiaogang's theories really all wrong?

Meanwhile, Jiang Liang had no idea that such an interesting scene had taken place in the Pope Palace.

If he had known, he definitely would have cursed Bibi Dong for being lovesick. Anyway.

Ever since he had brutally beaten Tang San and Yu Xiaogang that day, he had been in an exceptionally good mood for quite some time.

He had even treated Wang Sheng and the other Work-Study Students to a fine meal at the best restaurant in Nuoding City.

This incident also allowed him to completely establish his footing within the academy.

The students all warmly called him "Boss Jiang."

Even the Instructors jokingly called him that.

Xiao Chenyu, once the academy's little tyrant, had completely become his follower.

However, he did so willingly. Just the fact that Jiang Liang dared treat Yu Xiaogang like that was enough to earn his admiration!

After that incident, Yu Xiaogang no longer dared spout nonsense in front of him.

Because he already knew that Jiang Liang would not go easy on him. If he deserved a beating, he would be beaten; if he deserved a scolding, he would be scolded. So Yu Xiaogang could not afford to provoke him and could only avoid him.

Although Xiao Wu was somewhat unhappy that she had failed to become the academy's big sister,

with Jiang Liang backing her, everyone still respectfully called her Sister Xiao Wu. Naturally, she soon put those unhappy thoughts out of her mind.

The days passed one after another, and Jiang Liang's life at the academy gradually settled down.

Just like before, he refined qi and cultivated his sword every day, practicing the Sword Control Technique.

Every now and then, he could also learn some newly passed-down sword techniques from Sword Mother.

This caused his sword cultivation to improve rapidly, and the Cold Moon Sword became increasingly compatible with him.

His strength had already left everyone else in his year far behind.

The only thing that made him unhappy was Tang San's frequent appearances around him.

At first, Jiang Liang had been extremely impatient.

Later, he realized that Tang San did not seem to be targeting him, but Xiao Wu!

He was utterly stunned.

Could it be that even though he had already made Xiao Wu move out of Dorm Seven, Tang San was still determined to cling to her?

Could the legends of Love Continent be true?

However, when he saw that Xiao Wu barely paid Tang San any attention and even seemed to dislike him, he felt relieved.

In the blink of an eye, a year had passed.

At Nuoding Academy, one semester lasted an entire year.

Once a semester ended, there would be a three-month break.

On the day the vacation began,

Jiang Liang packed his things early and prepared to leave the academy.

"Jiang Liang, how long will it take before you come back this time?"

Like a little Rabbit, Xiao Wu skipped along beside him.

Jiang Liang smiled and rubbed the top of her head.

"That depends. It could be a little over a month, or I might not return until school starts."

"I've been at rank thirty for quite a while now. It's time to hunt for my third Soul Ring."

"Besides, I've already left you the dormitory key."

"And I left you ten Gold Soul Coins too. That should be enough to last you these three months."

"Okay."

Xiao Wu pouted pitifully and could only agree.

She did not want to stay in the dormitory alone. It would be far too boring.

But Jiang Liang had said that that Title Douluo might be guarding the area around the academy.

If she showed herself, she might be captured at any time.

Just then, an indignant voice came from behind them.

"Jiang Liang, you're absolutely heartless! Xiao Wu is so adorable—how can you bear to leave her here alone?!"

Jiang Liang and Xiao Wu were both stunned.

They turned around and saw that it was none other than Tang San!

He quickly walked up to Xiao Wu, his gaze eager and sincere.

"Xiao Wu, why don't you come to my home?"

"My home isn't far from Nuoding City, and there's an old man there who treats me quite well."

"If you come with me, he'll make lots of delicious food for you."

Over the past year, Tang San had gradually figured out Xiao Wu's personality.

She looked lively and energetic, but her mind was especially simple, and she could not resist delicious food.

Especially carrots.

At first, he might have approached her because of his father's instructions.

But now, he truly had started to like this girl.

Xiao Wu, however, did not appreciate his kindness at all.

"What relationship do I have with you? Why should I go to your house?"

"And Tang San, how many times have I warned you not to talk to me? Are you deaf?"

"I hate you so much!"

As she spoke, she turned around and gave Jiang Liang a sweet smile.

"Jiang Liang, I'll head back to the dormitory first. You have to come back soon."

"Go on." Jiang Liang smiled, nodded, and waved goodbye to Xiao Wu.

Tang San, standing nearby, nearly exploded with anger at the sight.

Damn Jiang Liang. It's because you exist that Xiao Wu is so cold toward me.

You have once again found the Way of Seeking Death!

Noticing Tang San's furious gaze, Jiang Liang turned to look at him, then suddenly burst out laughing.

Tang San's face darkened even further. "Jiang Liang, what are you laughing at?"

"Nothing." Jiang Liang laughed and patted his shoulder. "Tang San, why don't you go buy yourself a red nose?"

"What do you mean?"

Tang San frowned slightly, feeling that those words did not sound like anything good.

Jiang Liang smiled. "Trust me, you can't go wrong with a red nose. After buying one, you can even sign up for the circus."

"Then you won't need to do anything in the future. Just play the clown every day and make people happy. Maybe you'll even earn a few Silver Soul Coins."

After saying that, he turned and left, leaving only Tang San behind, so angry that his head spun.

He glared fiercely at Jiang Liang's retreating back, his chest heaving.

Damn Jiang Liang, how dare you call me a clown!

You... you have once again found the Way of Seeking Death!

Tang San could only rage helplessly where he stood.

Meanwhile, Jiang Liang had already hurried back to the Martial Soul Branch Hall.

With a loud bang, he kicked Yue Guan's office door open.

"Uncle, I'm all ready. When are we leaving for the Extreme North?"

Yue Guan looked at the shattered door, veins bulging on his forehead.

"The cost of this door will be deducted from your monthly allowance!"

Jiang Liang waved dismissively. "Deduct whatever you want. I'm rich now anyway."

"You damn brat!" Yue Guan clenched his stiff fists.

This brat's talent was indeed formidable, but his personality was just too infuriating!

He took several deep breaths before suppressing the urge to beat someone up.

"Fine. Since vacation has started, hurry up and pack your things. Tomorrow, I'll take you to the Extreme North to hunt for your third Soul Ring."

"Now that's more like it."

Jiang Liang chuckled. Just as he was about to turn around and look for Grandpa Ma Xiunuo, he suddenly remembered something and stopped.

"Oh, right, Uncle. Have you arranged everything for my friend?"

Yue Guan rolled his eyes at him and said irritably, "It's already arranged. Three Soul Saints are protecting your friend."

"Then I'm relieved." Jiang Liang smiled and finally turned to look for Grandpa Ma Xiunuo.

All he had to do was wait until tomorrow, head to the Extreme North, and find a suitable third Soul Ring!
