"Someone, quick! Drag him away..."

The female spectator screamed in terror while the surrounding audience stared at one another.

How had this man been perfectly fine just moments ago, only to suddenly go completely mad?

Two kindhearted spectators stepped forward, intending to pull Yu Xiaogang away from the woman.

To their surprise, Yu Xiaogang immediately threw his arms around one of them and started gnawing at him like a dog at a bone.

The other spectators were so frightened that no one dared step forward again. Seeing this, the guards responsible for security hurried over to stop Yu Xiaogang's madness.

But when a Soul Ancestor guard pulled him away, Yu Xiaogang actually latched onto him and tried to embrace the Soul Ancestor guard instead.

He was mad—completely mad!

The other guards were scared out of their wits. None of them dared go over to pull the two apart.

They were terrified that Yu Xiaogang would cling to them and force a kiss on them too.

If that happened, how could they ever show their faces at the Great Soul Arena again?

The Soul Ancestor guard whom Yu Xiaogang had kissed was furious. Being forcibly kissed in public was simply too humiliating!

He shoved Yu Xiaogang away, pinned him to the ground, and rained heavy punches down on his face.

"Fuck! You dare kiss me? You've got a death wish!"

The intense pain quickly snapped Yu Xiaogang out of the Illusion Technique.

The pain in his face made him look as though he were wearing a mask of agony.

What confused him even more was the burly man standing before him.

The man was clutching his collar and roaring at him with a furious expression.

"You motherfucker! You made me lose face in public!

If I don't beat the shit out of you today, how am I supposed to hold my head up in the Great Soul Arena afterward?"

What puzzled him even more was that hundreds, perhaps thousands, of eyes throughout the Great Soul Arena were fixed on him, every gaze filled with disgust and wariness.

What had happened to make so many spectators collectively feel such disgust toward him?

Before he could think any further, the tall man holding him punched him in the face again, knocking out two of his teeth.

"Y-you, what are you doing? Don't you know fighting is forbidden in the Great Soul Arena?

Let me go! Judging by your clothes, you should be an employee of the Great Soul Arena too, right?"

Yu Xiaogang howled in pain, his eyes filled with boundless fury.

He was going to report this unreasonable guard to the Great Soul Arena's higher-ups.

"What a joke. Have you forgotten what you did? I'm maintaining order in the Great Soul Arena.

Not only will the Great Soul Arena not punish me for beating you, they'll reward me for it!"

The guard laughed in fury and smashed several more punches into Yu Xiaogang's face.

Seeing him scream miserably, the spectators all wore expressions of satisfaction.

Bibi Dong slowly walked over to Wang Jingyu, fluttered her eyes at him, and asked in a soft voice.

"Did you use an Illusion Technique on that annoying guy just now?"

Wang Jingyu neither confirmed nor denied it, merely nodding with a wicked smile.

"Dong'er, you understand that some things are better left unsaid, right?

If that guy hears us, he'll come looking to fight me to the death again."

"So you're afraid of him too? With that little bit of strength he has, wouldn't you be able to play him to death?"

Bibi Dong looked at Wang Jingyu in surprise, wearing the expression of a curious child.

"Of course I'm not afraid of him. It's just that his disgusting habit of going after both men and women is revolting. I don't want to become his target."

Wang Jingyu glanced at Yu Xiaogang, who was currently getting the beating of his life, and made a retching expression.

"Pfft... Wasn't he like that because of you? And you, the one who started it all, are still mocking him like this."

Bibi Dong covered her mouth and chuckled, teasing Wang Jingyu for his lack of decency.

After laughing, she slowly walked toward Yu Xiaogang.

"Dong'er, what are you going over to see him for?"

Wang Jingyu grabbed Bibi Dong's little hand and looked at her in confusion.

"To have some fun, of course. Just watch."

Bibi Dong smiled mischievously, amusement gleaming in her eyes.

She slowly walked up to Yu Xiaogang, looked down at him from above, and wore an expression of bitter disappointment.

"Xiaogang, I'm terribly disappointed in you today. Why don't you understand my heart at all? To protect your safety, I was even willing to throw away my dignity.

Yet you were so desperate that you'd kiss anyone in sight. Kissing a female spectator in public would have been bad enough, but you even went after a guard... You..."

The moment Bibi Dong finished speaking, she turned and left, acting as though she were utterly disappointed in Yu Xiaogang.

Yu Xiaogang's head was full of question marks. Even now, he had no idea what exactly had happened to him.

What had made Dong'er so disappointed in him, and why were everyone present looking at him with disgust and wariness?

Ignoring his injuries, he kept replaying what had just happened in his mind.

After painstakingly piecing his scattered memories together, he suddenly felt the urge to dig a hole and bury himself alive.

In front of so many people, he had actually pounced like a hungry wolf and forcibly kissed a woman as fat as a pig.

That would have been bad enough, but he had even kissed a man.

The very guard currently gripping his collar and beating him mercilessly.

This massive public humiliation left Yu Xiaogang completely stunned, allowing the guard to continue pummeling him.

He knew he was finished. If word of this got out, the entire Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan would likely be shamed because of him.

Of course, he did not care much about what others thought. What he truly cared about was Bibi Dong's opinion of him.

Especially when he recalled Bibi Dong's disappointed gaze just now, he did not know where he found the strength.

He actually shoved away the Soul Ancestor expert clutching his collar and ran toward the private room where Bibi Dong was.

No matter what, he had to explain things to Dong'er. He absolutely was not some pervert desperate enough to kiss anyone.

He wanted to show Dong'er his feelings. He wanted to prove that he loved Dong'er, and that no one could love her more than he did.

But how could his wish be so easily fulfilled? After Bibi Dong entered the private room, she immediately shut and locked the door.

She wanted to make it seem as though she had truly become completely disappointed in Yu Xiaogang.

To kill a man, one had to break his heart. She knew that, for him right now, ignoring him was the cruelest torment.

Yu Xiaogang kept pounding on the door to the private room, wanting Bibi Dong to open it and accept his explanation.

But how could Bibi Dong possibly grant his wish?

To prevent him from causing further panic among the spectators and to maintain order in the Great Soul Arena,

the Guard Captain directly called over four men to restrain Yu Xiaogang. After giving him a brutal beating, they threw him out of the Suotuo City Great Soul Arena.

From that day onward, Yu Xiaogang was placed on the Suotuo City Great Soul Arena's blacklist.

Likewise, the person in charge of the Suotuo City Great Soul Arena reported the matter.

From then on, every Great Soul Arena across the Douluo Continent placed Yu Xiaogang on its blacklist.
