"This is the power of knowledge!"
"Yes, it is the power of knowledge!"
Not only Tang San, but even many spirit masters who had previously looked down upon Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but nod at this moment. After all, those two had died far too quickly and miserably just now.
Yu Xiaogang's logical analysis did indeed have a certain ring to it, allowing one to see a glimmer of hope amidst despair.
Perhaps as long as one possessed knowledge, one could survive in this terrifying world? That was hard to say, but as long as one could bring glory to the Douluo Continent, one wasn't a coward!
However, what no one noticed was that the Red Fire Wolf, which Yu Xiaogang had diagnosed as a ten-year-old sick wolf, looked at the babbling human before it, and a look of distinctly human-like disdain flashed in its eyes, as if it were looking at an idiot.
Chapter 3: The Collapse of the Theoretical Master! Tang San: Teacher's theories can never be wrong!
Battle Through the Heavens Plane, outskirts of the Magical Beast Mountain Range.
A gentle breeze blew, stirring a few fallen leaves imbued with rich spiritual energy.
Yu Xiaogang stood with his hands behind his back, his robes fluttering in the wind, his eyes filled with the wisdom of one who had seen through everything.
Opposite him, the Red Fire Wolf he had diagnosed as a ten-year-old sick wolf tilted its head, its beastly pupils flickering with a near-human sense of confusion.
It was confused: why did this weak human, who only possessed the energy fluctuations of Dou Qi, dare to strike such a pose of a powerhouse in front of it?
"This look..."
However, when Yu Xiaogang caught the Red Fire Wolf's gaze, the corners of his mouth curled into a sneer of disdain: "Is it fear? After all, it is a low-level spirit beast; it is only natural to feel instinctive fear when facing the aura of a powerhouse."
"Since that is the case, let us end this."
After speaking, Yu Xiaogang took a deep breath, and the spirit power within him surged wildly. In an instant, two yellow, hundred-year spirit rings pulsed beneath his feet, radiating the pressure of a Great Spirit Master.
Then, he suddenly waved his hand forward and shouted loudly:
"Farts like thunder, shake the heavens and shatter the earth, Luo Sanpao!"
"Luo! Luo!"
As the words fell, the pig-like, dog-like Luo Sanpao leaped high into the air, aiming its plump backside at the Red Fire Wolf not far away.
The next instant, with a loud boom.
A pale yellow gas was instantly ejected accompanied by a thunderous roar, transforming into a yellow shockwave that slammed fiercely toward the Red Fire Wolf's face with intense concussive force!
This was Yu Xiaogang's strongest attack!
Although the form was unrefined, he had used this move to defeat many spirit masters of the same rank at the Notting City Junior Spirit Master Academy.
In his view, this strike was enough to stun this ten-year-old spirit beast.
However, facing this imposing attack, the Red Fire Wolf merely snorted.
It did not dodge, and it didn't even bother to lift its eyelids.
It then opened its mouth, and a cluster of crimson light suddenly ignited deep within its throat—not a spirit skill, but merely the instinctive energy release of a magical beast: Fireball!
"Roar!"
In an instant, a fireball only the size of a fist, yet colored a deep, purplish red, shot out!
The moment the two collided, there was no stalemate as Yu Xiaogang had expected, nor was there any scene of Luo Sanpao blowing his opponent away.
On the contrary, the thunderous shockwave from Luo Sanpao, which was enough to stun a Great Spirit Master, was instantly evaporated the moment it touched the small fireball!
Immediately following, the fireball continued unabated, carrying a terrifyingly high temperature, and struck Luo Sanpao squarely in mid-air!
"Luo!!!"
A scream of extreme misery instantly echoed through the mountain forest. Luo Sanpao didn't even have a chance to struggle before its plump body was instantly blasted into a mass of golden light and forcibly recalled!
"Pfft!"
The backlash from his martial soul shattering struck instantly, causing Yu Xiaogang to spit out a mouthful of blood, his entire body sent flying backward as if he had been struck by a high-speed spirit train!
Bang! Bang! Bang!
After snapping three ancient trees as thick as a man's embrace, he finally slammed heavily into a pile of rubble like a dead dog, kicking up a sky full of dust.
Meanwhile, in the Douluo Continent.
Inside Shrek Academy, time seemed to have stopped flowing at this moment.
On the Shrek Academy playground, the students who had been cheering for the Master's might remained in their cheering poses, yet they could no longer make a sound, like a flock of ducks whose necks had been throttled.
Especially Tang San, who was in the center of the crowd; his eyes, which had been glowing with the Purple Demon Eye, were widened to the limit, and bloodshot veins had even burst at the corners of his eyes from the sheer intensity.
"No... this is impossible!!"
"How could Teacher's theory be wrong? That was a ten-year spirit beast! Whether it was its size, the color of its fur, or its spirit power fluctuations, it completely matched the characteristics of a ten-year spirit beast!"
"Although Luo Sanpao is a mutated martial soul, that strike possesses the paralyzing effect and impact of a thunder attribute; even a hundred-year Mandala Snake would have to avoid its edge!"
"But, but why?!"
Tang San suddenly raised his head, staring fixedly at the replay on the light screen, cold sweat pouring down his forehead like rain:
"That fireball, yes, there is something wrong with that fireball!"
"Purple Demon Eye, show me clearly!!"
Under his desperate activation, the seemingly ordinary fireball in his eyes began to reveal its true form.
Although its exterior appeared quite plain, it actually contained a power of law within that made him tremble.
That was not spirit power, but a form of energy countless times more terrifying than spirit power.
"It's too condensed; the energy density of that fireball even exceeds Teacher Zhao Wuji's fourth spirit ability!"
"A ten-year spirit beast spits out an attack at the level of a Spirit Saint?"
"No, this isn't logical! This defies all common sense in the spirit master world!"
In just a few short minutes, Tang San felt as if his brain were about to explode.
The knowledge he took such pride in, the theoretical system he had learned from the Grandmaster, was shattered in an instant by a single fireball.
"If, if this is the case..." Tang San's face turned ashen as he collapsed onto the ground, muttering to himself, "Then what are we?"
"In that world, wouldn't we so-called Spirit Elders and Spirit Ancestors, or even Titled Douluos, be nothing more than ants?"
As for Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and the others nearby, they had long since been frozen in terror.
Dai Mubai's usual devilish charm had vanished completely. Watching Yu Xiaogang's fate hanging in the balance on the light screen, his legs couldn't stop shaking: "Someone as learned as the Grandmaster couldn't even withstand a single move?"
"If we went there, wouldn't we not even be enough to fill the gaps between a magical beast's teeth?"
"No, that's not it, it can't be like this; how could that world possibly be so much stronger than ours! Grandmaster, get up!"
