Little Gangzi Was No More, MVP Winner: Big Stone! (Please Bookmark!)

Now that Lu Li's path was blocked by that snarling thing, Luo Sanpao, he had no choice but to turn back and look at Yu Xiaogang and Tang San, master and disciple, both wearing angry expressions.

"Brat! This Grandmaster told you to stop just now. Why didn't you stop?! Do you have any respect for me, your teacher?!"

Yu Xiaogang spoke as he walked over.

Lu Li shrugged and looked at Yu Xiaogang as though he were an idiot.

"Listen, mister, I'm not a student of this Academy. Why should I listen to you?"

Hearing this, Yu Xiaogang was even more delighted.

It was good that he wasn't a Notting Academy student. That way, Yu Xiaogang could casually find an excuse to show off his might and take down this little brat before him!

At that moment, Yu Xiaogang seemed to imagine himself displaying his might later, revealing his Soul Grandmaster strength and forcibly taking down Lu Li. His image would then become even more towering in Tang San's heart!

"Good, very good! I never expected a child like you to have such vicious intentions. Sneaking around outside my Academy, you must be plotting something against the students of Notting Academy! Hmph, I never thought that, despite being so young, you would be so depraved!"

"This Grandmaster absolutely cannot allow a scourge like you to continue harming the female students of Notting Academy. Come with me obediently! Otherwise, don't blame this mighty Soul Grandmaster for being rude!"

Lu Li frowned upon hearing Yu Xiaogang's words.

Yu Xiaogang was truly skilled at making up lies.

He was just a child, yet Yu Xiaogang had somehow painted him as a pervert plotting against Notting Academy's students.

That was really something else.

What was more, Yu Xiaogang looked so confident, as though Lu Li really were the pervert he described.

But in truth, everything Yu Xiaogang said was utter nonsense!

More importantly, "mighty Soul Grandmaster"?

How did Gangzi even have the nerve to say that?

Lu Li did not want to waste too much time tangling with Yu Xiaogang. He had only just obtained his cheat, and neither of his two Martial Souls had Spirit Rings yet. Naturally, his first priority was to hunt a Spirit Ring for one of them.

"Dragon One."

Lu Li silently called out in his heart. Dragon One was the level ninety-seven Title Douluo granted by the system.

The next moment, the space between Yu Xiaogang and Lu Li suddenly twisted, then shattered apart.

At that moment, a burly man wearing a mask stepped out from within.

The instant the burly man appeared, he dropped to one knee before Lu Li.

"Dragon One greets Master."

Dragon One's voice held neither joy nor sorrow. He sounded more like a machine than a living person.

Seeing Dragon One suddenly appear, along with the space that had just shattered, Yu Xiaogang unconsciously swallowed.

"Space shattering... could this man's Martial Soul be a spatial Martial Soul?"

In Yu Xiaogang's understanding, space could not be broken apart unless its owner possessed a spatial Martial Soul.

"Dragon One, pin them down."

Lu Li's voice was ice-cold.

He understood that he was bound to offend Yu Xiaogang and Tang San today. It was unavoidable. He had wanted to cut off the source of the trouble entirely and kill both Tang San and Yu Xiaogang.

But unfortunately, if he wanted to keep growing stronger and obtain more good things, he still had to rely on Tang San to gradually obtain the opportunities that originally belonged to Tang San in the original story.

Thus, even if Lu Li wanted to kill Tang San outright, the system's mandatory conditions would not allow him to do so.

"Yes, Master."

Dragon One turned around. Without even releasing his Martial Soul, he merely unleashed a trace of pressure and slammed Yu Xiaogang and Tang San flat onto the ground, leaving master and disciple unable to move.

Under the pressure released by Dragon One, even the stone beneath Yu Xiaogang's face shattered.

Feeling the broken stones pressed against his face and the pressure crushing down on him with the force of tens of thousands of pounds, Yu Xiaogang immediately panicked.

"No! You can't kill me! Do you know who I am? I am the Number One Theoretical Master of the Continent! Countless powerful people have close ties with me. If you kill me, they will spare no cost to avenge me!"

Listening to Yu Xiaogang's harsh words, Lu Li only felt that the man was hopelessly stupid.

If anyone else found himself in this situation, he would either beg humbly for mercy or offer up his only valuables in exchange for his life.

But Yu Xiaogang did neither. Instead, he started making threats.

All Lu Li could say was that Gangzi's authority was still on the rise!

Gangzi's way of thinking really was different from everyone else's!

Although Lu Li could not kill Yu Xiaogang, he certainly would not endure Yu Xiaogang's insults for nothing.

Lu Li bent down and slowly picked up a Big Stone by his feet.

"Don't worry, I won't kill you."

Holding the Big Stone, Lu Li crouched down and whispered into Yu Xiaogang's ear.

A flash of delight appeared on Yu Xiaogang's face when he heard this.

Sure enough, Grandmaster Yu's reputation was still useful. The moment this person heard his words, he immediately chose to spare him!

But why had his prone body been flipped over?

Just as Yu Xiaogang was utterly confused, he heard a crisp crack.

Then a burst of agonizing pain surged up from his groin.

"Aaaahhh!!!!"

A pig-slaughtering scream immediately rang out. Yu Xiaogang's eyes were bloodshot from the pain, and his face twisted under the sheer agony.

However, Dragon One's pressure was still holding him down, so Yu Xiaogang could not roll around in pain.

Lu Li tossed away the Big Stone, which was stained with a trace of blood and a bit of white matter.

After rising to his feet and giving Yu Xiaogang a disgusted look, Lu Li signaled to Dragon One with his eyes.

Receiving the signal, Dragon One returned to Lu Li's side and stood quietly there.

"I said I wouldn't kill you, and I keep my word."

After saying that, Lu Li directly led Dragon One away into the distance.

Lu Li also feared that killing Yu Xiaogang might alter Tang San's life trajectory and cause him to miss certain opportunities.

Therefore, he only gave Yu Xiaogang a small punishment and did not choose to kill him.

Big Stone: Lucky solo kill on Little Gangzi!

Tang San had remained kneeling on the ground with his head lowered the entire time. Only after seeing Lu Li truly leave did he get up and scramble over to his teacher.

"Teacher! Teacher, how are you?!"

Two streams of tears ran down Tang San's face. Looking at his teacher, who had lost his dignity as a man, he felt heartbroken beyond measure.

This was the father he, Tang San, had acknowledged as his teacher for a day and father for life! No, his teacher!

Yu Xiaogang had already fainted from the pain.

Tang San glanced in the direction Lu Li had left, his eyes filled with endless hatred.

"My strength is still too weak right now. Just wait. Once I become strong under Teacher's guidance, I will personally repay the humiliation you brought me today!"

After leaving behind that vow in his heart, Tang San picked up his teacher and ran toward the Academy infirmary.

In the shadows, a figure completely concealed beneath a black robe glanced at Tang San, then in the direction Lu Li had gone. The figure stopped just as he was about to give chase.

Meanwhile, led by Dragon One, Lu Li quickly arrived beside an empty patch of land outside Notting City.

"Caw!"

Lu Li had only just arrived when a bird cry sounded in the distance.

The next moment, the clear sky suddenly darkened. Then, a huge bird wreathed in golden flames and covered in golden feathers flew directly toward them.

The moment the bird saw Lu Li, its body rapidly shrank. In the end, it became palm-sized and landed steadily on Lu Li's shoulder.

Lu Li stroked the little bird on his shoulder.

If he did not say so himself, who would know that this was a two-hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast?

"You're golden all over, so I'll call you Little Yellow from now on."

Lu Li said with a smile.

The two-hundred-thousand-year ferocious beast on his shoulder happily rubbed its face against Lu Li's cheek, seemingly very fond of the name.

However, Lu Li was somewhat puzzled. By rights, a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast could speak human language, while Spirit Beasts over a hundred thousand years old could not only speak, but also shift between human and beast forms.

But clearly, Little Yellow could do none of that.

"Never mind. It doesn't matter if it can't. Now that the people are here and the mount has arrived, it's time to head for the Star Dou Forest."
