Xiao San, Step Aside, Let Your Teacher Show Off

What was he trying to do?

Oscar watched Tang San's sudden behavior thoughtfully.

He could not help but speculate in secret, countless possibilities surfacing in his mind.

"Could he be trying to help Rongrong out of her current predicament?"

"But he berated Rongrong so harshly last night. Tang San doesn't seem like that kind of person!"

Oscar was utterly baffled.

Suppressing the thoughts in his heart, he patiently continued watching.

"Xiao San, what are you trying to do?"

Yu Xiaogang hurried to Tang San's side.

Seeing Tang San stare directly at Ye Qingtian, he nearly failed to catch his breath.

Even Sword Douluo was no match for Ye Qingtian. If Tang San truly acted on impulse, the consequences would be unimaginable!

Ye Qingtian would not even need to lift a hand. A single glance might be enough to kill him on the spot.

My great ambitions have yet to be fulfilled. Tang San, you cannot die like this!

I, the master, am still waiting for you to make something of yourself and clear my name!

At this,

Tang San took a deep breath and said, "Teacher, I do not want to do anything. I only want to settle Xiao Wu's matter."

"Xiao Wu is still being held by him. I have to bring her back!"

Yu Xiaogang was speechless.

For a moment, he felt as though his entire mind had stopped working.

What was this even supposed to mean?

Xiao San, Xiao San, could you really not see the situation at all?

Where had your cleverness gone? Where had your composure gone?

Was now the time to deal with Xiao Wu's matter?

Ning Rongrong would have no choice but to return to where she had been and kneel all the way back to Shrek Academy.

And that... was only because Sword Douluo had stepped in and asked for a favor.

Without Sword Douluo's intervention, Ning Rongrong's fate would have been far worse!

"Xiao San, we need to consider this carefully!"

Yu Xiaogang took a deep breath. "You must listen to me on this matter."

Tang San did not nod, as though he had not heard Yu Xiaogang at all.

He remained silent and continued staring at Ye Qingtian.

"Since Rongrong's matter has already been settled, this incident should be over, right?"

"You detained Xiao Wu last night. Now that everything has been resolved, it is time to release her."

"After all, she is innocent!"

Tang San said.

With just a few words, he tried to completely absolve Xiao Wu of all responsibility.

Ye Qingtian watched Tang San defend Xiao Wu with great interest.

A faint smile rested on his lips. "She already attacked me, and you call that innocent?"

"I suppose that in your eyes, even if that girl Xiao Wu had actually succeeded, you would still claim she was innocent, wouldn't you?"

Tang San's expression stiffened.

After Ye Qingtian put it that way, countless words lodged in his throat, leaving him unable to speak.

Gritting his teeth, he reorganized his thoughts.

"But Xiao Wu did not ultimately succeed, and I heard that you already broke both her arms and legs. Is that not enough?"

Ye Qingtian's gaze was indifferent.

He examined Tang San without the slightest trace of emotion.

His casual words slowly slipped from between his lips.

"The Eight-Stage Throw can leave even the lightly injured with every tendon and bone shattered, requiring at least half a year to a year of recovery."

"Those caught off guard and seriously injured may die outright under this chain of attacks."

"She rashly attacked me and even used such a method, yet you think you can take her away just by saying she is innocent?"

"If that were the case, then would not every stray cat and dog be free to attack me?!"

Tang San stood there speechless.

The expression on his face shifted wildly.

His mouth opened and closed several times, but he could no longer utter a complete sentence.

"Ah..."

"Xiao San, leave the rest to your teacher!"

"You just watch calmly. Leave everything to me."

Yu Xiaogang sighed softly.

He lightly patted Tang San's shoulder, signaling for him to step back.

He moved one step ahead of Tang San, looking entirely ready to put on a show.

Tang San was stunned. After pondering for a moment and seeing that Yu Xiaogang had already taken the lead, he furrowed his brow in thought before obediently stepping back.

"Teacher, then I will leave this matter to you."

"I will never forget your kindness, Teacher!"

Tang San's expression turned solemn.

Yu Xiaogang gave a grunt and stood ramrod straight.

With his hands clasped behind his back, he looked quite confident.

Ye Qingtian watched Yu Xiaogang's manner with amusement.

After hearing Tang San's words, he found it even more laughable.

Unable to help himself, he recalled a saying he had heard in his previous life.

In the Endless Fire Domain, there was Yao Lao; in the God Realm, there was no longer Yu Xiaogang.

The more moving Tang San's words were now, the more heartless and faithless his actions would be in the future.

Promises meant nothing; responsibility was someone else's problem.

Yu Xiaogang had no idea what Ye Qingtian was thinking. With a grave expression, he said,

"Senior, Xiao Wu is a student of our Shrek Academy."

"What Xiao Wu did yesterday was indeed wrong. I ask that you release her."

"If you seek an explanation, then as one of Shrek Academy's teachers, I, Yu Xiaogang, will take responsibility for what Xiao Wu did!"

"Shrek Academy will bear responsibility for Xiao Wu's matter."

Bear responsibility?

Ye Qingtian laughed. "Shrek Academy wants to bear responsibility for this?"

"What qualifications do you, Yu Xiaogang, have to bear it?"

The moment those words fell,

Yu Xiaogang's expression changed drastically.

Compared to Tang San's expression just now, his own was no better.

That single sentence was like a cannonball exploding in his chest.

"No matter what you think, Senior, Shrek Academy will definitely bear responsibility for this matter."

"If you believe I, Yu Xiaogang, am not qualified to bear it, then Shrek Academy will find another way to do so!"

Yu Xiaogang took a deep breath and answered in a low voice.

He had promised Tang San that he would settle Xiao Wu's matter, and at this moment, he had no intention of retreating.

In truth, he wanted to retreat, but he had already been put over the fire and had no choice.

At this,

Ye Qingtian considered it briefly.

Looking at Yu Xiaogang's fearless appearance, a mocking smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

"Since you, Yu Xiaogang, wish to bear responsibility for Xiao Wu's matter,"

"Then, just like Ning Rongrong, return to where you were before and kneel all the way back to Shrek Academy!"

"When you have done so, I can let this matter pass!"

With that,

Ye Qingtian said no more.

He had already given them a solution. Now, he wanted to see how Yu Xiaogang would choose.

Yu Xiaogang sucked in breath after breath of cold air.

Unable to believe Ye Qingtian's proposed solution, his heart plummeted into the abyss.

Make him kneel all the way back to Shrek Academy? Did Yu Xiaogang not care about his dignity?

Forcibly calming himself, he said in a deep voice,

"Senior, your demand is somewhat excessive!"
