If this weren't the preliminary round of the Elite Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition, and if, as the dean of the Blue Tyrant Academy, she blindly rushed over to find Yu Xiaogang, causing a huge commotion that could lead to the downfall of the Blue Tyrant Academy, Liu Erlong would definitely be rushing to Yu Xiaogang with tears streaming down her face to reunite with him, throwing herself into his Yu Xiaogang and holding Yu Xiaogang tightly, not giving him any chance to escape again.
Although Liu Erlong suppressed her intense, almost obsessive love for Yu Xiaogang due to the venue, and did not rush to the audience seats of the Heaven Dou Second Team to find him, her gaze never left Yu Xiaogang after she saw him. She hoped that Yu Xiaogang could feel her gaze, notice her, and take the initiative to come and acknowledge him.
As the second round of the qualifiers began, the atmosphere in the Soul Fighting Arena was incredibly electric. Countless spectators were cheering for Heaven Dou Second Team. As a team established by the academy created by the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, Team Heaven Dou Second Team naturally carried the aura of being a national team.
"Xiao Gang, Xiao Gang."
Yu Xiaogang, who was completely focused on the game, turned around when she heard Flender's voice and asked, "What is it, Flender?"
"Erlong, Erlong is there."
Since Yu Xiaogang's attention was focused on the Soul Fighting Arena and she didn't feel Liu Erlong's gaze, Liu Erlong had no choice but to turn her attention to Flender, hoping that Flender would notice her.
Flender, a Soul Saint, clearly possessed far more acute perception than Yu Xiaogang, who was merely Soul Grandmaster. Moreover, as Soul Saint, the matches between the Advanced Soul Master Academy teams in the Soul Fighting Arena were nothing more than child's play for Flender, and he didn't need to take them as seriously as Yu Xiaogang did. Therefore, he immediately sensed Liu Erlong's gaze upon him.
Upon hearing the name "Erlong," Yu Xiaogang's body trembled violently. Following Flender's gaze, he indeed saw a beautiful woman in the audience in front of him, staring at him intently with red-rimmed eyes, as if she might burst into tears at any moment. His face was slightly dazed, and he dared not meet Liu Erlong's gaze.
"Xiao Gang, let's go see Erlong."
Flender said that the battle between the Heaven Dou Second Team and the Advanced Soul Master Academy was at its final stage, and the outcome was already decided. At this time, it was not surprising for the instructor to suddenly leave the audience.
Yu Xiaogang Erlong, "Flender, go see Erlong. Tell her that our relationship was a mistake, and that we are cousins. You should treat Erlong well."
"Xiao Gang, what nonsense are you spouting? Are worldly views really that important?"
Flender roared. He had told Yu Xiaogang Liu Erlong countless times that Liu Erlong did not love him, and therefore he would never lay a finger on her. For him, Liu Erlong's happiness was his greatest happiness.
Before Flender could say anything more, he suddenly felt a sharp, cold gaze fall upon him. He had felt this gaze many times before; it belonged to Bibi Dong.
With the Bibi Zhu the Elite Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition, how could Yu Xiaogang not tell Bibi Dong about it? Although neither Bibi Dong nor Yu Xiaogang knew what the Spirit Hall was planning, Bibi Dong would never allow a Soul Beast to impersonate her. Therefore, she also came to the Elite Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition and hid in the shadows.
If Bibi Zhu does anything to truly take her place, she will immediately reveal herself and expose the true face of this 100,000-year-old Death Spider Emperor in full view of everyone.
In two years, she had broken through to the level 95 Titled Douluo. With Tang Xiao's power, the two of them together would force a 100,000-year-old Death Spider Emperor to reveal its true form in order to deal with them.
Bibi Zhu wasn't there, so Bibi Dong didn't take any action. The main reason was that the matter was too bizarre. Without Bibi Zhu present, few people would believe her if she told them. Instead, most people would treat it as a joke, thinking she was crazy and would lose all face.
Furthermore, Bibi Zhu's identity is Xiao Wu's trump card, ensuring her safe exit from the finals of the Elite Advanced Soul Master Academy Competition in Spirit City; it cannot be played so casually.
She has reconciled with Yu Xiaogang, and Yu Tianheng is with Xiao Wu. Yu Tianheng is also Yu Xiaogang's nephew, so Xiao Wu is practically her niece. Naturally, she has to protect Xiao Wu's safety.
Flender felt Bibi Dong's cold gaze and swallowed hard. He knew perfectly well that Bibi Dong was furious when she heard him trying to reunite Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong.
In any other situation, he might have backed down, but when it came to Liu Erlong, the woman he loved most in his life, more important than his own life, he stubbornly persisted.
"As long as there's love, anything is possible. I know you still have feelings for Erlong. At worst, you can give Erlong and Bibi Dong to..."
"Enough, Flender!"
Yu Xiaogang hissed angrily, saying that love makes everything possible, but unless the mindset of the Douluo Continent changes and cousins get together, which is ethical, he would never agree.
Flender is shameless, Liu Erlong doesn't care. But Yu Xiaogang a shame! He cares about it!
After speaking, Yu Xiaogang glanced again at Liu Erlong, whose pupils began to tremble as if he had guessed what he and Flender had been arguing about, then resolutely turned his head away, cutting off their eye contact, which was his answer to Liu Erlong.
Upon receiving Yu Xiaogang's response, Liu Erlong felt as if the sky had darkened and the world was about to collapse. At this moment, she no longer cared about face, propriety, or shame. A shrill scream resounded throughout the entire Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena.
"Xiao Gang-- "
The Soul Fighting had ended, and the Heaven Dou Second Team and another Advanced Soul Master Academy were leaving the arena. The audience was still reminiscing about the battle between the two Advanced Soul Master Academy, and the noise in the Soul Fighting Arena had greatly decreased.
Upon hearing Liu Erlong's shrill roar, all eyes turned to him.
Liu Erlong leaped up like a cannonball and landed in the audience where the mentors of the Heaven Dou Second Team were. He then pounced forward again, grabbed Yu Xiaogang with both hands, and pressed Yu Xiaogang against the back of the chair.
Liu Erlong's beautiful face was already streaked with tears. She roared, "Xiao Gang, do worldly opinions really matter that much? We've already gone through the wedding ceremony, we're husband and wife!!!"
The roar echoed throughout the entire Soul Fighting Arena once again. The audience, students and instructors from various Advanced Soul Master Academy, nobles in the VIP seats, the three chief students of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, and even Salas, Ning Fengzhi, and Sword Douluo were all stunned by this scene.
Yu Xiaogang's face flushed red. Although Liu Erlong blocked his view and he couldn't see what was happening around him, he knew from the now completely silent Soul Fighting Arena that he was dead.
