Tang Hao is Tang San's father. Even if he knew, he would not hurt her. Tang San said that he would protect her.

But...

But if Tang San really knew, why did he never mention it?

Did I forget to mention it, or...

Don't dare to say?

Just when Xiao Wu was still thinking about it, footsteps came from outside the door.

"Xiao Wu? How is Xiao San?"

It's the voice of Dai Mubai.

Xiao Wu took a deep breath, put the letter away, and turned to face the door.

"Third Brother is gone," she said, "He went to recuperate with his father."

Dai Mubai was stunned for a moment. "Leave? Then the competition..."

"He left a letter." Xiao Wu handed the letter to him.

Dai Mubai frowned after reading the letter.

"Then... what about the competition?" he asked.

Although Tang San's status is getting higher and higher now than Shrek's, vaguely surpassing Dai Mubai, it is undeniable that the situation when Tang San is here and the situation when Tang San is not there are two different things.

Xiao Wu shook his head. "I don't know."

The two stood at the door, silent.

The sun shines in and shines on the ground, as bright as the morning sun.

Ma Hongjun's loud voice came from the distance. "What? Third Brother is gone? Then what else are we fighting for?"

Followed by the voice of Oscar: "Keep your voice down..."

Dai Mubai frowned. "Six people can fight."

"But Third Brother is not here..." Ma Hongjun hesitated to speak, but was pulled back by Oscar, and finally swallowed it back.

Xiao Wu took a deep breath and tried to suppress those chaotic thoughts. Now is not the time to think about these things, the competition will start tomorrow. Third Brother is not here, she must hold this position for Third Brother.

She raised her head and looked at Dai Mubai: "Boss Dai, how will we fight tomorrow?"

Dai Mubai stared at her, and after a moment of silence, he slowly said, "Fight as you want. If one person is missing, Shrek will still be Shrek."

Xiao Wu nodded, and others also agreed.

Besides, isn't there a substitute?

It's not impossible for the substitute to start first.

But everyone knows in their hearts that Shrek, who lost Tang San, is no longer the original Shrek.

······

As far away as the sky.

Heaven Dou City, another street.

Zhou Qiubai and Yang Guyun walked side by side in the crowd, each holding a bunch of candied haws in their hands.

"Have you been slacking off recently?" Yang Guyun said suddenly.

Zhou Qiubai took a bite of the candied haws and responded vaguely, "Huh?"

"It's too slow." Yang Guyun reiterated, "During the third position, the tip of the sword moved half an inch downward."

Zhou Qiubai thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, go back and change it."

The two of them continued walking forward.

"I heard that something happened to Tang San of Shrek." Yang Guyun suddenly said.

Zhou Qiubai paused and looked sideways at him. "How do you know?"

Yang Guyun said expressionlessly, "I heard that."

Zhou Qiubai was speechless for a moment, and then asked, "What happened?"

"Absorbing Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring, failed."

Zhou Qiubai raised his eyebrows and continued walking forward.

Yang Guyun followed up and asked, "Aren't you surprised?"

"What's so surprising?" Zhou Qiubai took another bite of the candied haws, "His Blue Silver Grass's foundation has long been ruined by Yu Xiaogang. It would be weird if he didn't fail."

Yang Guyun thought for a while and asked, "Then why can you succeed?"

Zhou Qiubai glanced at him sideways and suddenly smiled, "Because I don't believe in those nonsense theories."

Yang Guyun was silent for a moment and nodded rarely.

The two of them reached a fork in the road, and Zhou Qiubai suddenly stopped and stared at the city wall in the distance.

Over there is the venue where the competition is about to be held.

The day after tomorrow, there will be a crowd of people there.

"Gu Yun." He said, "How far do you think we can go this time?"

Yang Guyun didn't even think about it, "Finally."

Zhou Qiubai smiled, "So confident?"

Yang Guyun looked at him and rarely said a long sentence, "You know what you know, don't pretend."

Zhou Qiubai laughed loudly, patted his shoulder, and strode forward.

"Okay, then last!"

Yang Guyun followed closely, and the two disappeared into the sea of people.

The day after tomorrow, the continent-wide high-level Soul Master Academy Elite Competition begins.

At this time, Heaven Dou City's Spirit Hall and Salas were sitting in Study, holding a secret letter tightly in their hands and frowning like a ball of twists.

This letter was sent from Spirit City, and it was written by Bibi Dong himself.

Zhou Qiubai and Yang Guyun, these two cannot be retained. During the competition, they will be eliminated as soon as possible.

He read this short line three times, and the more he read it, the more his head hurt.

Zhou Qiubai and Yang Guyun, these two names are not unfamiliar to him. The legend of White Clothes Swordsman and Returnless Spear, the leapfrog battle of Heaven Dou City made them famous in one battle, and recently they won the hearts of those poor children in the Heaven Dou Academy.

Even the storytellers on the streets can tell wonderful stories about their heroic deeds.

Something like "One Sword From the West is a guest from outside, White Clothes is like snow that does not touch the dust", or "there is no life or death when a gun comes out, and when will the lonely cloud return after it leaves".

Salas himself felt ecstatic when he heard it. To be honest, these words are really catchy.

Unfortunately, no matter how nice it sounds, it doesn't help.

The problem now is that Pope wants him to kill these two people.

If these two were really so easy to kill, would they still be needed now?

I don't even think that people have the ability to leapfrog Battle Soul Emperor without using Soul Skill. It is probably possible to use Soul Saint.

Even if it's Soul Douluo, can't it still run if it can't be beaten?

And Salas is just a Soul Douluo, not the combat type Soul Douluo.

He knows best how he came to be Soul Douluo.

What's more, in addition to Zhou Qiubai's strength, there is also a background...

One is that the young master, Qian Renxue disguised as Xue Qinghe, is making friends with these two.

As one of the few people who know the identity of Qian Renxue, Salas naturally knows it.

But what is Qian Renxue's identity? What is his identity?

So Bibi Dong's order makes Salas now a piece of Oreo, in a dilemma.

Bibi Dong is his immediate superior, Pope of the Spirit Hall. Her words should be obeyed unconditionally. But at this moment, she is far away from Spirit City. Water far away cannot quench the thirst of the near, and Qian Renxue is at Heaven Dou City.

Salas knows this young master's gentle appearance and true nature deep inside.

She can disguise herself so well at this age that even Xue Ye cannot detect her, which is definitely not a bad thing.

To be an enemy of her is to seek death.

As an old man of the Spirit Hall, he naturally knows the relationship between Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue.

Bibi Dong hates Qian Renxue, and Qian Renxue is also full of resentment towards Bibi Dong.

Therefore, he did not dare to explore the truth easily, nor did he dare to choose a side. He just wanted to stay in the seat of Bishop Heaven Dou City Spirit Hall peacefully, waiting for the future winner to let him continue to sit in this chair.

But now, Bibi Dong is directly putting him on the fire.

Follow the instructions?

How do you explain Qian Renxue?

She was just thinking about winning over these two people, but she sent someone to kill them. That would be a trouble. If the young master discovered them, how would she explain herself?

If you don't comply, what will Pope say?

The letter has been sent, do you think you haven't seen it? When asked by Pope in the future, if you say that you are doing it in a positive and negative way, do you still need your head?

Salas sighed, sat up straight, and looked at the letter again.

Waiting for an opportunity to eliminate these four words made him slightly relieved.

Send a few people over and test the waters at will. If you can't beat them, you'll say the opponent is too strong. If you can't beat them, you'll say the opponent is too weak.

Anyway, no matter what the outcome is, he has something to say.

He is just a Soul Douluo, and his identity is just a Platinum Bishop. Those Titled Douluo elders of the Spirit Hall cannot give orders, so they can just give them a beating when the time comes.

If it succeeds, then it can be said that the two protagonists are nothing more than that, and they can easily complete the task.

If it fails, it means that the two protagonists are too strong. The people they sent out tried their best, but they were really no match.

The best of both worlds.
