Improving So Fast—Could He Have Taken Some Medicine?

Having reached middle age, Yu Xiaogang was no longer so easily provoked.

After taking a moment to compose himself, he calmed down.

Yu Xiaogang suppressed his displeasure and said coldly, "This student... you should know that taking medicine can cause a certain degree of damage to one's foundation."

Yu Xiaogang's words practically stated outright that Dai Mubai had only achieved his current accomplishments by taking medicine.

Ma Hongjun, standing nearby, was immediately displeased.

"What? Are you saying Boss Dai cheated?"

As soon as Ma Hongjun said that,

the atmosphere grew tense.

"Ahem, there's definitely nothing wrong with Mubai's improvement. Xiao Gang, you're overthinking it."

Flender hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over for Dai Mubai.

"As a teacher, I naturally need to know my students' physical condition inside and out. An examination is necessary."

Yu Xiaogang insisted.

While part of it was because he was dissatisfied with Dai Mubai, there was another genuine reason as well.

He simply refused to believe it.

Could this Dai Mubai really surpass Tang San?

Tang San had Twin Martial Souls and his own guidance!

"I don't want some old man touching me. If you can't handle that, then don't teach us."

Dai Mubai took a step back.

This Yu Xiaogang had never been any good in the first place.

"Hey, Mubai, you..."

Seeing Dai Mubai speak like that, Flender became somewhat anxious. "Mubai, just cooperate with Xiao Gang and go through the motions."

Zhao Wuji watched the scene from the side, tilting his foolish-looking head.

Though he did not know why Flender valued this Grandmaster who was not even Level 30 so highly,

based on what he knew of Dai Mubai,

that guy was not someone who could easily compromise.

Sure enough, Dai Mubai shook his head. "Then it seems the Grandmaster's training isn't suitable for me."

With that, Dai Mubai turned and left.

"Mubai, wait for me."

Zhu Zhuqing immediately followed behind Dai Mubai.

"Boss Dai, I'm not suited to being touched by an old man like that either. Come on, let's go find the Twins."

Ma Hongjun followed after them with a cheerful grin.

"Get lost."

Zhu Zhuqing abruptly turned around and glared viciously at Ma Hongjun.

Frightened, Ma Hongjun hurriedly backed away several steps and followed from a distance.

"Dai Mubai, slow down."

Ning Rongrong followed as well.

"Um... Dean, I... I'll be leaving too."

Oscar was still fairly polite.

As he watched Ning Rongrong leave, he even hesitated for a moment before following after her.

In an instant, the previously crowded training ground

was left with only Flender, Zhao Wuji, Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, and Xiao Wu.

Yu Xiaogang stood there awkwardly, at a complete loss.

"This..."

Flender stared in astonishment at the two students remaining before him.

He could not understand it.

How had things turned out like this?

"Hehe, Dai Mubai's wings have really hardened. His temper used to be this bad too. But while he was stubborn before, he never had the guts to act like this."

Zhao Wuji spoke without a care in the world, completely ignoring the awkward atmosphere.

Yet whenever he recalled Dai Mubai's bizarre speed,

Zhao Wuji felt that the guy truly had the ability to back it up.

Perhaps Dai Mubai would become even stronger than him in less than twenty years.

Most importantly, regardless of what the Shrek students were thinking, at the very least, they had all followed Dai Mubai.

"This... this... I was only doing it for everyone's good!"

Flender furrowed his brow. He could not understand how one action of his had caused things to turn out this way.

"That Yu Xiaogang's nose is practically pointed at the sky. If it were me, I wouldn't give him the time of day either. Dai Mubai didn't do anything wrong."

Zhao Wuji said.

"Just shut up."

Flender glared at Zhao Wuji.

Zhao Wuji shrugged.

He looked completely unconcerned.

There was still another half of his thought that he had not voiced.

Yu Xiaogang's Soul Power was only Level 29, lower than his students'.

The fact that Dai Mubai had held back from exposing him was already a sign of respect.

"Sigh, I'll go persuade Mubai again."

Flender sighed.

Then he hurried after them.

He did not know why things had become like this.

But he knew that Dai Mubai was at the root of it.

"Sigh."

Zhao Wuji watched Flender's departing back and sighed inwardly.

He had spent more than ten years at Shrek Academy, always living freely and without restraint.

Now, Flender had brought in a Grandmaster, wanting to change the academy.

He did not know what this academy would become after being changed.

Hopefully, it would not drive the academy apart.

Zhao Wuji shook his head and slowly left.

In an instant, only three people remained on the vast training ground.

Silence.

Still silence.

After a long while, Yu Xiaogang finally turned and left.

"Teacher, don't hold it against Dai Mubai."

Hmm.

Seeing Yu Xiaogang leave, Tang San hurried after him, wanting to comfort him.

"Little San, what is going on with that Dai Mubai?"

Yu Xiaogang suppressed his displeasure, turned back to look at Tang San, and asked.

"Dai Mubai... I don't know what's going on with him. This year, he's only 15 Years Old."

Tang San followed Yu Xiaogang into his room.

After Yu Xiaogang sat down in a chair, Tang San remained standing beside him and continued explaining.

"I met him two months ago. Back then, he already seemed very strong."

"He trains very diligently. Every day, he goes to sleep later than I do, yet gets up earlier than me."

When it came to Dai Mubai's diligence, Tang San truly felt inferior.

But no matter how hard he pushed himself, he could not outlast Dai Mubai.

After all, the two of them thought differently.

Tang San had always wanted to surpass Dai Mubai.

But with Upgrade Already as his Hextech, Dai Mubai was the very embodiment of someone who enjoyed it.

How could Tang San possibly compare with him in perseverance?

"15 Years Old?"

After Tang San had said so much, the only thing Yu Xiaogang focused on was that he was 15 Years Old.

It was simply too astonishing.

How could someone...

"No wonder Flender said this Dai Mubai was the most gifted student he had ever seen..."

"Level 37 at 15 Years Old is nothing remarkable. In the future, you can become even better than him."

"But Level 43 at 15 Years Old is something worth pondering over. How did he do it? He jumped six levels in just two months!"

At that thought, Yu Xiaogang felt as though his head was filled with question marks.

"This guy definitely didn't cultivate his way up steadily! What medicine did he take? If... if it has no side effects..."

"Perhaps we can get one for you too."

Yu Xiaogang frowned deeply.

"Maybe it isn't because of medicine."

Tang San suddenly said, "I know he has a cultivation method. Maybe it's because of that method."

"What method?"

Hearing that Tang San might have an answer, Yu Xiaogang immediately became interested. He looked at Tang San and asked.

"He and Zhu Zhuqing have a Martial Soul Fusion Skill."

"When he cultivates with Zhu Zhuqing, the speed at which their Soul Power flows increases."

Tang San answered honestly.

"What? Why didn't you tell me something this important earlier?"

Yu Xiaogang frowned.

He quickly looked at Tang San, his heart leaping with excitement. "Tell me everything in detail!"
