Confused Master Yu Xiaogang

Facing the aggressive stance of Tang San and the others, Qin Chuan stopped holding back. Even with Tang Hao lurking in the shadows, killing intent surged within him.

"Kid, you're quite something. To be able to fight me to this extent at such an age!"

Fred remained calm on the surface, desperately maintaining his sixth soul skill, Cat-Eagle Body Protection. His soul power trembled violently, and cracks were constantly appearing in the soul light covering his body!

A monstrous storm raged in his heart, filled with sheer terror!

It was absurd!

The young man before him was so young, yet his physical body had reached an unfathomable level of strength.

Having lived in Suotuo City for years, he was essentially blind to the current state of the continent and ignorant of many things.

Encountering such a genius now—someone even more terrifying than what Zhao Wuji had described—he couldn't help but feel his heart race with dread.

"Sixth Soul Skill—Cat-Eagle Body Protection!"

Qin Chuan's physique was too astonishing. His body contained endless, surging blood energy, and every punch he threw carried over seven thousand jin of force, making Flender's scalp tingle.

"A Soul Douluo... doesn't seem as strong as I imagined. I don't even need those invention gadgets; I alone am enough!" Qin Chuan threw punch after punch, shaking the void, yet he felt no significant pressure.

This was related to his strength climbing to the Seventh Transformation, as well as the fact that his opponent was unwilling to completely burn bridges.

"Such a powerful physique. It's so astonishing; it's absolutely impossible to achieve this through a martial soul alone. This boy must have mastered some top-tier body-tempering method."

Watching the two fight to a near standstill, Yu Xiaogang became inexplicably excited, his expression burning with fervor.

He had spent his life researching martial soul theory, and he was most obsessed with breaking through conventional cultivation systems!

Qin Chuan's terrifying physical body, which transcended the limitations of martial souls and defied the standards of soul master cultivation levels, was simply the perfect material to validate his theories!

As long as he could obtain this top-tier body-tempering method, his martial soul theory would become more complete, perhaps even elevating Tang San's talent to the next level!

Maybe even he himself could...

At this thought, Yu Xiaogang could no longer restrain himself.

Ignoring the tense, life-or-death standoff, this Soul Grand Master, whose cultivation was only at level 29 despite being fifty years old, rushed forward and shouted:

"Stop! Everyone, stop!"

"Teacher!"

"Grandmaster!"

As soon as the words fell, Flender hurriedly retracted his soul skill, sighing with a face full of embarrassment and helplessness.

Yu Xiaogang's action not only halted Qin Chuan and Flender but also left the entire Shrek group stunned and terrified.

Dai Mubai almost let go of Liu An, startling the severely injured man.

"What do you think you're doing?" Qin Chuan frowned, distancing himself from Flender and stepping back, watching the middle-aged man with caution.

Completely ignoring the killing intent in Qin Chuan's eyes, Yu Xiaogang ignored the others trying to stop him and approached, looking high and mighty with absolute confidence as he asked bluntly:

"Kid, I ask you, have you mastered a unique method for tempering the physical body?"

Is this guy sick?

Qin Chuan muttered to himself.

He suddenly realized that these people from the so-called Shrek Academy all had some degree of mental issues or personality quirks.

He replied coldly: "So what if I have? What does that have to do with you?"

Yu Xiaogang failed to detect the cold hostility in Qin Chuan's words, instead lifting his head proudly with a condescending air:

"You might not know me. My name is Yu Xiaogang. On this continent, people call me Grandmaster, and the Ten Core Theories of Martial Souls were written by me."

Grandmaster? I think you're a muddled-headed master!

"And then?" Qin Chuan was becoming impatient, his gaze locked firmly on Tang San.

Seeing that Tang San was still harboring and showing undisguised killing intent toward him while hiding behind Flender's protection, his eyes grew increasingly icy.

"Now, I am giving you a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!" Yu Xiaogang was brimming with confidence, certain that Qin Chuan would concede.

In his view, a nameless youth, while possessing some strength, was only doing so because Fred was holding back.

Being able to use this to connect with him and Shrek was a massive blessing!

Yu Xiaogang continued: "Hand over your body-tempering method!"

"As long as you swear never to trouble my disciple Tang San again, I will have Flender stop and ensure you leave Suotuo City safely!"

When these words landed, the entire scene fell into dead silence!

Flender's old face turned beet red, his toes curling in embarrassment!

He really wanted to rush over and drag Yu Xiaogang back!

Disgraceful! Absolutely disgraceful!

Yu Xiaogang's cultivation was too low to see the reality of their fight; did he actually think he was going easy on this monster of a youth?

He frowned deeply, wanting Yu Xiaogang to come back immediately and stop making a fool of himself, but out of respect for their relationship, he ultimately said nothing.

Yu Xiaogang's cultivation was very low; after Qin Chuan sensed it, he realized the man was only at the level of a Soul Grand Master, making him the weakest person present.

Yet a weakling like this actually dared to boast, coveting his cultivation methods; it almost made him laugh.

"With such a lowly realm, your delusions are quite grand. Get lost!" Qin Chuan said coldly, offering this idiot no shred of courtesy, his gaze icy.

The fact that he could even refrain from striking this fellow was already a testament to his good temper.

"You... do not be ungrateful. I hope you can recognize the current situation..."

"With Clear Sky Douluo, Zhao Wuji, and Flender standing guard, you have no wings to fly! Me sparing your life is a gift to you!"

"Get lost!"

Yu Xiaogang was still chattering away, but Qin Chuan's patience had run dry. He let his aura leak out, blasting Yu Xiaogang away and sending him crashing heavily into the ground.

"Teacher!"

"Despicable villain, you actually launched a sneak attack!" Tang San hurriedly helped Yu Xiaogang up, glaring at Qin Chuan with eyes full of rage.

He then shouted toward Flender and Zhao Wuji, "Dean, Teacher Zhao, you have now seen this man's true colors. Hurry up and kill this despicable villain!"

Tang San was truly afraid now; such heaven-defying talent was something even he, with the entire accumulation of the Tang Sect, could not compare to.

Among his peers, he was simply unrivaled!

He had to take advantage of the situation and strangle him in the cradle before he could fully grow.

"I have tolerated you for a long time." Qin Chuan's eyes were cold and grim; his gaze toward Tang San was as if he were looking at a dead man.

From beginning to end, all the grievances between him and Shrek had been stirred up by this person, who had repeatedly sought opportunities to frame him and put him to death.

Now that things had reached this point, he had long since made up his mind to thoroughly execute this person and restore his own peace of mind.

"Die!" Further words were useless. Qin Chuan struck again, this time with a clear target. His movements were decisive and resolute, intent on killing Tang San.

"Dean! Teacher Zhao!" Tang San utilized his footwork, hurriedly retreating behind the others. While dodging the killing intent, he did not forget to call for help from the two men.

"Sigh!"

Flender and Zhao Wuji sighed, realizing that the situation could no longer be salvaged, and had no choice but to intervene.

No matter what, Tang San was their student, and just by virtue of his father being Clear Sky Douluo, it was impossible for them to let him come to any harm.

Watching the two of them charge at him like wild beasts, Qin Chuan's heart tightened; he dared not be the slightest bit careless.

"Roar!"

"Coo!"

Flender and Zhao Wuji were both above the level of Spirit Saint, and both possessed beast spirits. One agile and one powerful, one attacking and one defending, their coordination was seamless, completely cutting off Qin Chuan's path forward.

"Little friend, it is merely a momentary dispute, why be so angry? Why not just call it a truce here?"

Hearing Flender's voice, Qin Chuan ignored him entirely. There was no longer any possibility of mediation between the two sides; they were now mortal enemies, and he could not stop now.

Besides, who knew what kind of trouble this sinister villain Tang San would stir up in the future?

"These two have extremely tacit coordination, and that Spirit Douluo's speed far exceeds mine. It is almost impossible for me to escape from their hands."

Qin Chuan's brows were tightly locked. Their seamless teamwork not only cut off his path but also placed immense pressure upon him.

A weight like a mountain pressed down on him, constantly draining his strength. His blood energy surged and burned, like a scorching fire hidden beneath the clouds.

"A genius is always just a genius, not a powerhouse." Dai Mubai sighed, feeling a mix of relief, helplessness, and admiration.

No one would think that Qin Chuan could escape from the hands of two such powerhouses, let alone harm Tang San.

"Mubai, if the Dean and the others can kill this person, it will remove a great threat to our Shrek. Why are you sighing?" Tang San smiled faintly.

Dai Mubai glanced at Tang San but did not speak, merely frowning slightly.

He felt that Tang San was becoming increasingly unfamiliar; he could no longer see through this person who called him brother.
