"Fight outside, where everyone can watch."
"I want everyone to see that my teacher isn't useless."
"He's a true master! I'll defeat you in front of everyone!"
Tang San spoke as he walked outside. He had to win—win in front of the entire academy!
He had to thoroughly humiliate Qin Qi and let everyone know that he was the strongest in this academy!
He was the boss of this academy.
And he would show everyone just how much he respected his teacher!
Even if he had once been a traitor who stole sect secrets, he still respected his teacher!
"Fine."
Qin Qi nodded and agreed, then headed outside as well.
He had no idea why Tang San was reacting so strongly.
Nor did he know whether Tang San truly respected his teacher.
But he knew one thing: today, he had to beat Tang San flat!
He had never been the kind of person to endure a provocation without striking back!
What did you do when a cheap cat hissed at you? Beat it up! A Haji like Tang San needed a vicious beating!
"Boss, you don't need to fight him one-on-one. Let's all gang up on him and teach him a lesson!"
After steadying himself, Wang Sheng gave Qin Qi a grateful look, then glared fiercely at Tang San as he spoke.
He had disliked Tang San for a long time.
Back then, he had merely kindly reminded Tang San that the master was a freeloader.
Then Tang San had threatened him.
And this time, he had even been beaten up.
They were all work-study students, yet Tang San never fit in and acted all high and mighty every day.
Whenever he looked at them, there was always a sense of looking down from above, full of contempt.
Exactly like that useless master!
"I'm the boss. If someone challenges me to a duel, I have to accept."
"As for a group beating, you can join in after I win."
Qin Qi smiled. He did not reject Wang Sheng's suggestion of ganging up on Tang San, but they would have to wait until after the duel.
After that, however Wang Sheng wanted to get revenge would be Wang Sheng's own business.
"Tang San is just as disgusting as his teacher. Looking at him makes me sick."
Xiao Wu walked to Qin Qi's other side, her face full of disgust as she looked at Tang San.
In her current understanding, Tang San was a coward.
He did not dare fight back when the regular students provoked him, and he had even taken someone like the master as his teacher.
Yet now he was throwing his weight around. It was seriously irritating.
"A teacher like that produces a disciple like him."
Qin Qi casually remarked.
Qin Qi and Tang San arrived behind the teaching building. Students from every grade had gathered there by now.
They quietly discussed among themselves what exactly had happened.
"What's going on?"
"I heard Boss Qin Qi is going to duel Tang San."
"Who's Tang San?"
"A kid whose Martial Soul is Blue Silver Grass and who has Innate Full Soul Power."
"Can trash like Blue Silver Grass really have Innate Full Soul Power?!"
"That's what it says in the records, anyway."
The students discussed among themselves, and the question asked most often was who Tang San was.
Everyone in the academy knew Qin Qi, but hardly anyone knew Tang San.
Tang San was like the Blue Silver Grass by the roadside—completely unnoticed.
"What an overestimation of himself. A Blue Silver Grass actually dares challenge Boss Qin Qi."
"By the way, isn't Tang San that clown master's disciple?"
"No wonder he's so full of himself. A clown's disciple is a clown too."
Xiao Boss stood amid the crowd with his arms folded, speaking with a cold sneer.
Even with his Beast Martial Soul and as an Eleventh-Level Soul Master, he had failed to defeat Qin Qi.
How could a mere Blue Silver Grass possibly win?
He would bet one Gold Soul Coin that within three seconds of the battle starting, Tang San would be pinned to the ground and beaten!
The students formed a circle. Qin Qi and Tang San stood in the middle, both staring at each other.
"Hmph, laugh. Laugh all you want."
"Once I defeat Qin Qi, you won't be laughing anymore."
"When I become the boss, let's see who still dares laugh at me."
Tang San sneered inwardly. These people were truly ignorant; their mockery meant nothing to him.
Once he proved his strength, who would dare look down on him then?
Right, I haven't revealed my Martial Soul yet.
"First-year work-study student, Tang San. Martial Soul: Blue Silver Grass. Thirteenth-Level Soul Master!"
As Tang San spoke, he revealed his Hundred-Year Soul Ring. In that instant, he realized just how much he loved Soul Rings!
The moment a Soul Ring was revealed felt incredible!
He was truly looking forward to everyone's expressions!
"A Thirteenth-Level Soul Master!"
"And he has a Hundred-Year Soul Ring!"
"This kid is a monster too!"
"No wonder he dared challenge Boss Qin Qi. So he's been hiding his strength!"
The watching students all revealed shocked expressions. At a junior Soul Master Academy—
a six-year-old Soul Master was already a genius among geniuses, and a Hundred-Year Soul Ring was even rarer.
At that moment, Tang San was a monster in the students' eyes!
"That's it, that's it, hahahaha!"
Tang San stood calmly in place, but inwardly, he was already gloating.
Everyone laughed at him for being useless, but what about now!
Who was the useless one?!
Was it you, or was it me?!
Qin Qi, were you scared stiff now?
Did you never imagine that I had already become a Soul Master and even possessed a Hundred-Year Soul Ring!
Tang San looked at Qin Qi, wanting to see surprise, jealousy, and fear on Qin Qi's face.
But there was nothing. He saw none of the emotions he wanted on Qin Qi's face.
All Qin Qi had was calmness and a trace of indifference.
"Qin Qi, it's your turn to announce yourself."
Seeing how calm Qin Qi was, Tang San felt deeply displeased and spoke.
"You're not worthy of making me announce myself."
Seeing Tang San's expression, Qin Qi decided that since Tang San was not being polite, he would not save Tang San any face either.
When Soul Masters fought, they announced their names and Soul Power. It was a form of respect.
But why should I respect a little bastard like you? The fact that I didn't directly call you a mongrel already showed excellent manners.
"Damn it!"
Tang San's teeth ground loudly. Qin Qi's contempt made him furious.
Meanwhile, atop the office building, Dean Notting and the teachers were watching the battle.
Listening to Tang San's words and looking at the Soul Ring behind him, he could not help frowning.
"When did this child become a Soul Master? Does anyone know?"
Dean Notting asked.
"We don't know. None of us knew about this."
"We weren't the ones who helped this child hunt his Soul Ring."
The teachers all shook their heads as they replied.
"Hmph."
Dean Notting snorted coldly, immediately thinking of Yu Xiaogang.
That damned Yu Xiaogang. I kindly let you stay in the academy.
Yet you stole my student!
This student occupied one of our academy's work-study slots, and the academy paid for his food and lodging.
Yet you secretly turned him into your own student.
This child only knows Yu Xiaogang, but not Notting Academy!
While the dean was feeling deeply displeased, Qin Qi and Tang San's battle began.
"Blue Silver Entanglement!"
Tang San opened with Mommy Entanglement, while using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to charge at Qin Qi.
