Yu Xiaogang's Moment at the Peak

"Hey, Erlong, you're not thinking of using force, are you? I advise you not to waste your energy. This is Heaven Dou City. You should know my relationship with Senior Dugu Bo. Forget about using force. Besides, that Grade Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma is still in Senior Dugu Bo's hands. If you can think of it, only I can help you." Wang Feng was obviously lying to Liu Erlong; the spiritual herb was currently in his possession.

However, Wang Feng's words instantly dispelled Liu Erlong's thought of using force.

She was well aware of Dugu Bo's power as a Titled Douluo.

Moreover, if she were to make a move here, it would inevitably cause a commotion, which was something she didn't want to see.

However, she absolutely could not bring herself to do something so shameful with Wang Feng for the sake of a Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma. But then she thought of Yu Xiaogang, and she hesitated.

Wang Feng was even more displeased by Liu Erlong's hesitant expression.

He knew that Liu Erlong would never agree to such a thing, but she hesitated for Yu Xiaogang's sake.

Is Yu Xiaogang really that important to her?

Seeing this scene only strengthened Wang Feng's resolve to take Liu Erlong away, and he then held Liu Erlong up in front of Yu Xiaogang.

Meanwhile, the largest classroom in the Shrek Academy was packed with people; if you counted, there were at least a thousand.

Most of them were students and teachers from the Shrek Academy, while a small portion were admirers of Yu Xiaogang Yu Xiaogang came to hear what new theories he had invented.

"I wonder what the Grandmaster will say later?"

"It must be some important knowledge."

"I can't wait! I'm a huge supporter of the Grandmaster."

While the students were discussing amongst themselves, in another corner of the classroom, the seven former Shrek Academy students, except for Tang San who had gone to Sunset Forest, all sat together.

"Hey, Zhuqing, didn't you say Wang Feng would be coming too? Why haven't I seen him?" Ning Rongrong peeked out but didn't see Wang Feng.

She now harbors a very good impression of Wang Feng, and she has many things to say to Wang Feng. Not seeing Wang Feng now inevitably leaves her feeling somewhat disappointed.

"He said he would come, and Dean Flender personally invited him. Perhaps something came up that delayed him," Zhu Zhuqing said casually, her gaze occasionally sweeping over her surroundings.

"That's strange, have you noticed? Teacher Erlong isn't here either!" Xiao Wu felt a little strange not seeing her godmother, Liu Erlong.

In the past, whenever there was anything related to Yu Xiaogang, Liu Erlong should have been the first to arrive. After all, this was the Grandmaster's press conference, and Liu Erlong was a staunch supporter of the Grandmaster. How could she not be there?

"It really is. But Teacher Erlong is probably backstage with Grandmaster and Dean Flender." After noticing that Liu Erlong was missing, Rongrong guessed that she was probably backstage.

However, Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong could never have guessed that Liu Erlong had been personally delivered to Wang Feng by Yu Xiaogang, and that Liu Erlong had already agreed to some of Wang Feng's requests in order to obtain that Nine-Grade Purple Ganoderma.

"Silence!!" Just then, Flender walked up to the podium.

"Students and distinguished guests, welcome to the Shrek Academy for this press conference. Next, please welcome our Shrek Academy teacher, the author of the Ten Core Theories, and a renowned Grandmaster in the Soul Master World, to the stage to speak."

After praising Yu Xiaogang, Flender stepped down from the stage.

Immediately afterwards, Yu Xiaogang walked up from backstage with great confidence.

"Classmates, teachers, and guests, good afternoon. I am the Grandmaster you speak of, Yu Xiaogang."

"I believe you have all heard of me, or have read some of my theoretical works, such as the Ten Core Theories, which I wrote."

"Some of the latest information I'm going to share today includes the relationship between the maximum age of Spirit Ring and physique, etc."

"As you all know, every Soul Master has a limit to how much Spirit Ring they can absorb. Once that limit is exceeded, they may explode and die."

"I've published some Spirit Ring limit tables before, but after years of research and experimentation, I've proven..."

"Now I've discovered something even more important: the limit of each Spirit Ring is linked to the Soul Master's physique and aptitude."

"This means that the stronger a person's physique, the greater their endurance, and the better their aptitude, the longer the lifespan of the Spirit Ring they can withstand."

After Yu Xiaogang took the stage and introduced himself, he launched into a long speech.

In the classroom, the students and teachers reacted differently to Yu Xiaogang's words. Some listened with great interest, while others dismissed them, believing that Yu Xiaogang was merely trying to attract attention.

"Grandmaster, you said someone absorbed their third Spirit Ring more than two thousand years ago, is that true?"

"Impossible! My third Spirit Ring is only a thousand years old. If I had absorbed a two-thousand-year-old one, I would have exploded and died long ago."

At this moment, two students stood up and questioned him.

Facing the two students who stood up, Yu Xiaogang replied with a smile, "That's true. One of my disciples, Tang San, has a third Spirit Ring that is over two thousand years old. Of course, the reason he was able to absorb it is because of his strong physique and aptitude, and also because I am his teacher." After praising Tang San, Yu Xiaogang then praised himself.

"It's actually true! This is unbelievable. The third Spirit Ring is over two thousand years old."

"Indeed, the Grandmaster is indeed Grandmaster; the disciples he taught are so extraordinary."

"Grandmaster, would you be so kind as to let us see which of your disciples you are?"

"That's right, we'd like to see it too."

Faced with the students' requests, Yu Xiaogang shook his head and smiled, "I'm sorry, my disciple is not currently in the academy. However, we have two other students whose third Spirit Ring have also surpassed the limit of the third Spirit Ring, reaching over 1900 years and 1800 years respectively."

Immediately afterwards, Yu Xiaogang pulled Ma Hongjun and Ning Rongrong along.

As soon as Ma Hongjun entered the arena, at Yu Xiaogang's request, he displayed his third Spirit Ring, which was over 1,800 years old.

Although Ning Rongrong didn't like it, she had no choice but to release her third Spirit Ring, which was over 1,900 years old.

Actually, she really wanted to confront Yu Xiaogang again, saying that his successful absorption of the third Spirit Ring was because of Wang Feng, and had nothing to do with Yu Xiaogang.

However, if she confronted Yu Xiaogang in this situation, it would definitely embarrass him, and she feared that Yu Xiaogang and others would dislike her in the future. Besides, she still had to attend Shrek Academy. After thinking it over, she decided not to confront Yu Xiaogang.

With the examples of Ma Hongjun and Ning Rongrong, Yu Xiaogang's speech was a resounding success. His fame will undoubtedly reach its peak once this event spreads to mainland China.

At the back of the classroom, Ning Fengzhi sat in an inconspicuous corner. Beside him stood Sword Douluo Chen Xin.

Flender, Yu Xiaogang, and the others were unaware that Ning Fengzhi and Sword Douluo Chen Xin would actually come to the Shrek Academy.

"Hmph, this Yu Xiaogang really knows how to put on a show." Sword Douluo sneered. He was even more disdainful of Yu Xiaogang's Spirit Ring Lifespan Table. Did they think they couldn't absorb Spirit Ring without Yu Xiaogang's published Spirit Ring Lifespan Table?

It's important to know that before Yu Xiaogang, there was basically a set of rules for how they absorbed Spirit Ring.

Moreover, he already knew the reason why Ning Rongrong was able to absorb that Spirit Ring, but now Yu Xiaogang was treating it as his own achievement, which made him feel that this person was somewhat hypocritical.

"Fengzhi, are you really sure this Grandmaster is as you described? Does he have real talent and skills?"

Sword Douluo was somewhat puzzled by Ning Fengzhi's high regard for Yu Xiaogang.

You know, Ning Rongrong was used as a test subject by Yu Xiaogang, and he could still tolerate it. I certainly couldn't.

Ning Fengzhi nodded. "Uncle Jian, I have my reasons. Besides, this Grandmaster isn't as simple as he seems. I think some of his knowledge is quite good. More importantly, his disciple Tang San's identity is also not simple."

"Fine, since you've already decided, then so be it. But I still need to pay this Grandmaster a proper visit later. How dare he use Rongrong for experiments without giving me a reasonable explanation? I won't let him get away with it."

Sword Douluo still couldn't tolerate Yu Xiaogang using Ning Rongrong for experiments and planned to settle accounts with him later.

"Sigh~"

Seeing Sword Douluo's behavior, Ning Fengzhi sighed. He was somewhat helpless about Sword Douluo's doting on Ning Rongrong.

As the two chatted, Yu Xiaogang, full of vigor, became more and more enthusiastic as he spoke on the podium.

At this moment, he has clearly reached his peak condition.

Flender, Zhao Wuji, and the others watched with satisfaction as Yu Xiaogang, with his green hair, delivered a passionate performance on stage.

But just then, a man stood up and asked with a questioning tone, "Grandmaster, I once heard you say something profound: there are no useless Martial Soul, only useless Soul Master. Is that true?"

Yu Xiaogang frowned when he saw that the man wanted to undermine him, especially in front of everyone.

When Flender, Zhao Wuji, and the others heard this question, they also looked at the man.

When Flender saw this person, he felt a vague recollection of him and quickly realized who it was.

A student who once wanted to the Shrek Academy was later rejected because he did not meet the requirements.

"That's right, I did say that." Yu Xiaogang had anticipated that someone would cause trouble, and being well-prepared, he replied calmly.

"Since you say there are no useless Martial Soul, only useless Soul Master, then why does your academy only recruit students with good aptitude, and not those with average aptitude?"

"And you just said that the lifespan of Spirit Ring is related to the Soul Master's aptitude and physique. Your disciple was able to successfully absorb it because of his good aptitude and physique. What does that have to do with you?"

The man who stood up asked all his questions in one breath, then looked at Yu Xiaogang with a mocking expression, wanting to see how he would answer. He harbored a grudge against this Grandmaster for being rejected when he Shrek Academy, and for cheating him out of his application fee. He also had no good feelings towards Flender and the others.

Now that this opportunity has arisen, it's only natural to take revenge on the other party and embarrass Yu Xiaogang.

Although Yu Xiaogang looked somewhat embarrassed by the rebuke, he was mentally prepared.

Lang Lang answered the questions posed by his students.

His statement that there are no useless Martial Soul, only useless Soul Master, was just something he said to encourage his students to work hard, and so on, reached another climax at Yu Xiaogang's press conference after he had left the man speechless with embarrassment.

It's unclear whether this student was deliberately arranged by them or if they genuinely had a grudge against Yu Xiaogang and the others.

Meanwhile, in another place...

Wang Feng and Liu Erlong, however, were filled with a different kind of passionate enthusiasm.
