Li Yusong: Since When Were Soul Grandmasters So Badass?

"Mm, Xiao San, you're a good child."

Yu Xiaogang was very satisfied with Tang San's performance.

He had great talent and listened to him completely. A disciple like that was impossible to find even with a lantern!

Then Yu Xiaogang turned his gaze toward Xiao Wu, his eyes filled with dissatisfaction.

As Tang San's teacher, he naturally understood his disciple's character.

Tang San always completed every task he assigned in the most rigorous manner.

This time was no exception. He had told Tang San to walk to Soto City, so barring any surprises, Tang San would definitely have followed his instructions and come on foot.

But now there had been an unexpected change. Naturally, Yu Xiaogang's suspicions fell on Xiao Wu.

"Hmph. Some people shouldn't think that having enough talent means they don't need to work hard. Talent without superior guidance is nothing but wasted effort."

Yu Xiaogang's words dripped with sarcasm.

The foolish Tang San only thought that, because Xiao Wu was present, his teacher found it inconvenient to criticize him directly. So he was scolding the mulberry tree while pointing at the locust tree, warning Tang San not to slack off.

Teacher, you care so much about Xiao San...

Tang San pressed his lips together, feeling even more guilty toward his teacher.

Xiao Wu rolled her eyes. If Yu Xiaogang had not been Tang San's teacher, Sister Xiao Wu would have already treated him to a Waist Bow.

When had she ever suffered such indignity?

At present, Xiao Wu did not particularly respect Yu Xiaogang. More than anything, he was simply her friend's teacher, so out of consideration for Tang San, she gave him a measure of respect.

But that tiny bit of respect had clearly been squandered by Gangzi.

When Yu Xiaogang saw Xiao Wu roll her eyes at him, he was angry, but it was inconvenient to say anything more.

"Forget it. I'll have Xiao San properly discipline her in the future."

In Yu Xiaogang's eyes, the exceptionally talented Xiao Wu was already his disciple's woman.

Of course, if the time came, then as her teacher, he would thoroughly investigate Xiao Wu.

He would make sure her background was clean and her character kind.

Only then would she be worthy of this theoretical Grandmaster's disciple!

"Alright, Xiao San. It's good that you understand. Rest for now, and come find me at the Academy tomorrow."

"Mm-hm, alright, Teacher."

Tang San watched his teacher leave. When he saw Yu Xiaogang's strange walking posture, he could not help frowning.

"Strange. Why does Teacher's way of walking feel so odd?"

Unable to figure it out, Tang San looked at Xiao Wu beside him and asked, "Xiao Wu, don't you think Teacher's walking posture is a little strange?"

Xiao Wu turned and looked.

"Why does that walking posture look like the way Mom walked after satisfying her desires?"

Watching Yu Xiaogang walk, Xiao Wu could not help recalling how her mother walked after taking human form and satisfying her desires.

The two were practically identical.

"How would I know? Come on, come on, let's hurry up and rest."

Xiao Wu did not think much of it. What did Yu Xiaogang's strange walking posture have to do with her?

Considering how sarcastic he had been toward her just now, it was already good enough that she had managed not to go over and beat him up.

And now he wanted her to care about Yu Xiaogang's walking posture?

Wishful thinking!

Xiao Wu headed toward the room first.

Tang San glanced at Xiao Wu, then at his teacher.

"It's fine, it's fine. Teacher should be fine."

Teacher was a theoretical Grandmaster. Wasn't it normal for his walking posture to differ from ordinary people's?

"Xiao Wu, wait for me!"

Having figured that out, Tang San hurriedly chased after Xiao Wu.

After leaving the Rose Hotel, Yu Xiaogang headed straight for Shrek Academy.

There, he had his good brother! He had a group of test subjects to help him realize his great theoretical knowledge—ah, no! Geniuses! Geniuses just like his disciple!

The more Yu Xiaogang thought about it, the more excited he became. The more excited he became, the faster he walked; and the faster he walked, the looser that place became.

In the end, Yu Xiaogang merely felt a wet sensation spreading from somewhere.

When he reached down to investigate, his expression changed drastically.

Yu Xiaogang fled in a panic into a secluded alley and took out a faded black scholar's robe from his Storage Soul Guidance Device to change into.

Finally, he looked at the scholar's robe he had changed out of. His face flushed red, but he could not wash it himself.

He was a theoretical Grandmaster. Doing such a thing did not suit his status, yet he could not ask someone else to wash it either.

That would be humiliating. As the most, most, most prideful man on Douluo Continent, he naturally would not allow such a thing to happen.

"Sigh, old friend, you've followed me for more than twenty years. Now I have no choice but to abandon you. Don't worry. Once I find Flender, I'll definitely avenge you!"

If not for that burly man, this scholar's robe that had accompanied him for over twenty years would not have ended up in such a state.

It was covered in filth!

After burying his "old friend" on the spot, Yu Xiaogang put away his sorrow.

He once again performed those movements he knew so well.

Hands clasped behind his back, a mysterious smile on his face, he walked toward Shrek Academy at an unhurried pace.

Only after quite some time did Yu Xiaogang finally stroll up to the gates of Shrek Academy.

"Mm, not bad. Only such a simple Academy can better temper its students' character. That old fellow Flender truly deserves to be this Grandmaster's old friend."

"Even his methods of teaching students are exactly like this Grandmaster's!"

Looking at Shrek Academy's dilapidated gates—so shabby that even a thief would leave behind a Gold Soul Coin—Yu Xiaogang silently nodded his neat little crew cut.

Then Yu Xiaogang's gaze shifted toward the pavilion by the Academy gates.

A table stood beneath the pavilion, and an old man lay sprawled over it, snoring soundly.

Seeing the old man, Yu Xiaogang felt like showing off.

For no other reason than to wash away the immense humiliation he had suffered these past few days!

First, some little bastard had crippled his little brother. Then, a dark-skinned burly man had...

Yu Xiaogang felt that after enduring such humiliating experiences, he needed to let it all out properly.

And his way of doing so was to display his strength, to see others call him Senior and treat him with respect!

"An old man, and a gatekeeper at that. He should be about the same as Notting Academy's gate guard, at most a Soul Master in his teens."

After everything he had gone through these past few days, Yu Xiaogang had clearly become much more cautious. He carefully sensed the old man's aura and found that it was no different from that of an ordinary person.

He immediately perked up.

Yu Xiaogang crooked his lips. His aura surged, his face reddened, and in the next instant, Luo Sanpao appeared beside him while two yellow Spirit Rings emerged beneath his feet.

With a bang, Yu Xiaogang fiercely slapped the table where the old man was sleeping.

The force was so great that the table actually trembled slightly.

One could see just how terrifying a Soul Grandmaster was!

Li Yusong slowly woke up.

"Was that thunder?"

Before Li Yusong could figure out what had happened, Yu Xiaogang's voice rang out again.

"You. Go call your Headmaster and tell him that an old friend has come to visit."

Yu Xiaogang's voice was extremely cold, like a sword about to leave its sheath!

Li Yusong looked at Yu Xiaogang's cold expression and orchid-finger pose, then at the two Spirit Rings beneath Yu Xiaogang's feet.

"Damn, you're sure full of yourself. Since when were Soul Grandmasters this badass?"

"Anyone who didn't know better would think you were level ninety-two!"
