Douluo: Star Official Challenge, Everyone is Stronger Than Tang San

The crowd gazed at the silver-haired man on the arena stage.

Their eyes revealed intense fear and awe.

Everyone had overlooked that the Senior was not only a noble Star Official.

Beyond opening the Star Official Challenge for those qualified and distributing rewards, he was also an unfathomably powerful expert whose majesty brooked no provocation.

After a while, a charred, blackened figure was tossed out of the arena.

A weak wail echoed out; it was Yu Xiaogang.

Flender rushed over at the first opportunity.

He caught his good brother and laid him on the ground.

Looking at him now, unrecognizable and disfigured.

With his martial soul forcibly stripped away and his life hanging by a thread.

Flender felt a tightness in his chest, an immense sense of distress.

Yet, for some reason, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He hurriedly ordered the academy's healing-type teacher to come and treat Yu Xiaogang's injuries.

Liu Erlong also trotted over in a state of agitation.

Upon seeing Yu Xiaogang, whose entire face was now hideously ugly.

Looking as unsightly as could be.

For a fleeting moment, she felt a sudden, extreme sense of nausea.

Even the tears that had been streaming wildly from the corners of her eyes just a second ago nearly dried up.

"Xiaogang, how did you get injured like this!"

"Your face... ugh!"

Liu Erlong truly could not hold it back; her throat burned.

But seeing Yu Xiaogang looking at her with emotional eyes.

She could only painfully swallow what was rising in her throat, her stomach churning with a fiery sensation.

"Xiaogang, don't worry!"

"You will be fine!"

"You will recover!"

"With me, Boss Flender, and everyone else here!"

"We will always stand with you!"

Liu Erlong knelt beside Yu Xiaogang, speaking gently.

Yet, upon smelling the pungent, charred scent on the man, her brows furrowed.

Flender heard Liu Erlong's words.

A look of conflict flickered in his eyes, eventually hardening into a ruthless resolve.

He and Yu Xiaogang were indeed brothers of many years.

But Yu Xiaogang had offended the Senior, which was tantamount to making an enemy of the entire soul master world.

In order to obtain qualifications and rewards for the Star Official Challenge in the future.

Every faction would surely draw a line between themselves and Yu Xiaogang, and target Shrek Academy.

"Xiaogang, rest assured!"

"No matter what you become in the future!"

"We will always be brothers, but..."

"But as the Dean of Shrek Academy!"

"I must consider all the teachers and students, and be responsible for them!"

"So, my good brother, I am sorry..."

Flender sighed softly, his heart settling on a certain decision.

With this, the area around the plaza fell silent.

The entire faculty and student body of Shrek Academy were extremely dissatisfied with Yu Xiaogang, to the point where it could even be described as hatred.

He had actually disregarded the countless teachers and students of the academy for his own selfish interests.

The soul masters watching the spectacle had long been displeased with Shrek Academy.

They took the opportunity to mock and ridicule them, causing the teachers and students of Shrek Academy to lower their heads.

Filled with resentment and unwillingness, they all wanted to rush up and tear Yu Xiaogang to pieces.

The members of Spirit Hall, led by Hu Liena, watched as Yu Xiaogang met such a miserable end and found himself in such a plight.

A knowing smile appeared on everyone's face.

Hu Liena's gaze turned shy as she looked toward the handsome, elegant silver-haired man sitting on the prayer mat in the center of the arena.

She had also requested to change her challenge, only to be scolded for it.

As for Yu Xiaogang, he had been severely punished and stripped of his martial soul.

It seemed that the pastries she had stayed up all night to make were worth it.

She would have to prepare even more next time.

Suddenly, Flender arrived in front of the Shrek Academy team.

With a sorrowful expression, he shouted:

"I, Flender, now announce in my capacity as the Dean of Shrek Academy!"

"Yu Xiaogang is hereby expelled from Shrek Academy!"

"From this moment on, any of his personal actions have nothing to do with Shrek Academy!"

For a moment, the thousands of people in the audience were completely stunned.

Good grief, it really was true that brothers were meant to be stabbed in the back.

Liu Erlong was slightly taken aback, then filled with fury.

But before she could question Flender as to why he was being so heartless and unrighteous, the entire area where the Shrek Academy teachers and students were gathered erupted into thunderous applause.

There were also excited, high-pitched shouts: "Lord Dean is wise!"

Liu Erlong froze at the sight, and the other soul masters in the arena were equally caught off guard.

Meanwhile, Yu Xiaogang, lying on the ground at death's door, wished he could jump up and beat the heartless Flender to a pulp, but he couldn't even move his body, and tears of sorrow streamed down his face.

PS: Second update (2/4)

Chapter 25: Yu Xiaogang expelled from the academy, abandoned by Emperor Xue Ye, witnessing the birth of a B+ rating reward

On the arena, Lin Feng was quite surprised.

He never expected that Flender would choose to lead Shrek Academy in drawing a line between themselves and Yu Xiaogang.

Damn, this is a bit absurd.

Doesn't the original story say that Flender and Yu Xiaogang are brothers who would die for each other?

This move of expelling him from Shrek Academy has truly stunned everyone!

Thinking this, Lin Feng closed his eyes and continued to meditate in a daze.

Everyone who was supposed to accept the Star Official Challenge today had already done so; he would have to wait until tomorrow.

Below the arena, Liu Erlong finally reacted.

She marched toward Flender in a rage, raised her fist, and demanded:

"Boss Flender!"

"Xiaogang is in critical condition right now!"

"How could you make such a heartless decision at a time like this!"

"Do you have no conscience toward Xiaogang? I really misjudged you!"

After saying this, Liu Erlong looked at the Shrek Academy teachers and students who were still applauding.

Veins bulged on her forehead as she roared: "Stop it, all of you!"

"If anyone dares to applaud again, I will destroy them!"

At the same time, a powerful Douluo aura spread out, enveloping the entire area where the Shrek Academy teachers and students were located.

The roar of a Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon echoed in the air at that very moment.

Instantly, all the teachers and students of Shrek lowered their heads in terror.

Their bodies trembled under the pressure, and they quickly shut their mouths.

Flender explained to Liu Erlong:

"Erlong, it is true that Xiaogang is my good brother!"

"But I am also the Dean of Shrek Academy!"

"I have to be responsible for the academy and consider the safety of all the teachers and students!"

"It was Xiaogang who provoked a senior for his own selfish interests in the first place!"

"He will surely be targeted by every faction in the spirit master world from now on!"

"Do you expect Shrek Academy to pay the price for his actions and suffer right along with him?"

"Erlong, I'm sorry, I can't do it!"

Flender turned around with a dark expression, pushing up his gold-rimmed glasses.

He took the opportunity to secretly wipe away the tear stains at the corners of his eyes.

Liu Erlong gazed at Flender's cold, retreating back.

Then, she looked at the teachers and students of Shrek Academy before her.

She gave a miserable smile and said:

"Boss Flender, I respect your decision!"

"But I will absolutely not abandon Xiaogang!"

"I will nurse him back to health and find a way for him to regain his martial soul!"

Liu Erlong let out a deep breath, feeling her body grow incredibly heavy.

She walked over, picked up Yu Xiaogang, and flew into the sky, leaving the place behind.

The teachers and students of Shrek Academy watched this scene with complex expressions.

Yet, they also breathed a sigh of relief because of it.

Yu Xiaogang being abandoned was entirely his own doing; he was not worth their sympathy.
