Yu Xiaogang stood even straighter.
After declaring that Ye Qingtian's demand was excessive, his entire demeanor seemed to rise to another level.
Even a Titled Douluo like Sword Douluo had not voiced such words just now.
By being able to say them, he had already surpassed Sword Douluo in certain respects.
"Is this demand excessive?"
"Since you think it is, then stand obediently to the side."
"If you lack the ability to bear it, don't try to puff yourself up and pretend to be important!"
Ye Qingtian gave Yu Xiaogang no face at all.
Sword Douluo truly had strength. Though he was not as strong as Ye Qingtian, Ye Qingtian did not mind giving someone like him a little face.
As for Yu Xiaogang...
No strength, no status, and his background was nothing special either.
Expecting Ye Qingtian to give someone like him face was simply impossible.
If such a thing truly happened, then something earth-shaking would definitely happen in the Douluo Divine Realm.
Not fixed—randomly angering a true god to death.
Yu Xiaogang's expression shifted as he spoke again. "Senior, you can change your condition. I still hold the same view as before."
"Xiao Wu is a student of our academy. We at Shrek Academy will bear responsibility, but not in this manner!"
Ye Qingtian slightly raised his brows.
He was somewhat unwilling to waste more words on Yu Xiaogang.
But after giving it some thought, he casually replied again.
"The condition remains the same. If you want to bear responsibility, then do it this way!"
"When all is said and done, Xiao Wu's actions are also related to Shrek Academy's teaching philosophy."
"A Soul Master who does not dare cause trouble is mediocre. Since you Shrek teachers can instill such a philosophy in your students, it is only right that you bear the consequences."
"If you do not want to bear them, then get the hell out of my sight and stop being an eyesore!"
At those words,
Yu Xiaogang fell silent on the spot.
He realized that he could not resolve this matter through Shrek Academy's identity.
After pondering for a moment and organizing his thoughts, he spoke again.
"Since Senior does not wish to let the teachers of Shrek Academy bear this responsibility, then I must trouble you to give me some face."
Give him face?
Xiaogang, Xiaogang, have you gotten a little too full of yourself?!
Ye Qingtian looked at Yu Xiaogang indifferently, no longer mincing words.
"Give you, Yu Xiaogang, face? On the basis of your current strength, which is not even Rank 30?"
"I have heard quite a bit about you, Yu Xiaogang. You have been bluffing and deceiving people for many years, always believing yourself to be extraordinary."
"It would be one thing if you bluffed and deceived others, but you dare do so before me? You truly do not know how the word 'death' is written?!"
"If you had Chen Xin's strength, I could give you a little face. But look at your own strength and answer me loudly—"
"You, are you qualified?!"
Yu Xiaogang went numb.
He stood there blankly, Ye Qingtian's questions filling his ears.
A mouthful of blood lodged in his throat, nearly giving him internal injuries.
If I had Sword Douluo's strength, would I still be like this? Would I still be the charlatan you call me?
Why do you have to poke where it hurts? Does Yu Xiaogang really have so little standing?
Yu Xiaogang's mentality collapsed.
For a moment, he no longer wanted to continue.
But then he remembered that he was resolving this matter for Tang San, that he needed Tang San to remember his kindness more deeply.
Taking a deep breath, he continued.
"Senior, you misunderstand. I am not asking you to give face to me personally."
"I mean that I am relying on my status as an elder of Spirit Hall."
Pfft—
Very suddenly, Qian Renxue laughed out loud.
Right after Yu Xiaogang said he would rely on his status as a Spirit Hall elder.
She simply could not hold it in and laughed without restraint.
The face of a mere Spirit Hall elder? He had come before someone like Ye Qingtian, a Supreme Consecrated of Spirit Hall, to show off?
He was getting carried away~
Truly getting carried away~
The sudden laughter immediately drew many people's attention.
Ning Fengzhi and the others, along with Shrek Academy's people, all focused their gazes on Qian Renxue.
Yu Xiaogang was somewhat displeased.
He had thought that once he invoked his identity as a Spirit Hall elder,
even if nothing else, the matter could still be resolved.
But Qian Renxue's sudden laughter immediately ruined his good mood.
After laughing for a while, Qian Renxue forcibly suppressed her amusement. "Everyone, my apologies. I merely suddenly remembered some happy news from home."
"You may not know this, but I just sensed that the Soul Beast in my house suddenly gave birth, pfft—"
???
The Soul Beast in his house gave birth?
Xue Qinghe, you are the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, not a Soul Beast from the Star Dou Great Forest.
A Soul Beast gave birth? Who were you trying to fool?
Yu Xiaogang's face darkened, the muscles at the corners of his mouth twitching wildly.
Everyone present wore strange expressions at Qian Renxue's excuse, which barely even sounded like an explanation.
Ning Fengzhi gave Qian Renxue a meaningful glance.
Then he looked at Yu Xiaogang again. He had seemed fairly agreeable before,
but now, the more Ning Fengzhi looked at him, the more something seemed off.
This Yu Xiaogang has the title of Master, yet he seems a little lacking in intelligence!
Senior Ye Qingtian could defeat Uncle Sword, a Titled Douluo, without even summoning his Martial Soul. His strength is already unfathomable!
With such strength, would he need to care about the identity of a Spirit Hall elder?
This Yu Xiaogang is rather disappointing!
Ning Fengzhi sighed inwardly.
He silently made this assessment, but did not voice all of it.
A faint smile also appeared on Ye Qingtian's lips, a genuine smile from the bottom of his heart.
Honestly, he had truly not expected Qian Renxue to throw out such an excuse at this moment.
The Soul Beast at home gave birth...
Xiao Xue, that excuse was truly far too forced!
Ye Qingtian found it amusing for a while, then suddenly realized that Qian Renxue was indeed much more obedient at this time.
Compared to her usual icy demeanor, the current Qian Renxue possessed a few more traces of human warmth.
Such a change meant that his guidance as her protector over these years had not been in vain.
Yu Xiaogang's face continued to darken, becoming comparable to the bottom of a pot.
After taking several deep breaths, how could he fail to understand what Qian Renxue's utterly forced explanation meant? How could he fail to understand the source of everyone's suppressed laughter?
He refused to believe this nonsense. His strength was indeed weak, and Ye Qingtian's was indeed powerful—even Sword Douluo was no match for him.
But Spirit Hall was, after all, the number one Soul Master force on Douluo Continent, and it also possessed the greatest number of Titled Douluo.
Even if Ye Qingtian would not give Yu Xiaogang face, he should at least give Spirit Hall some face, right?
Holding onto this certainty, Yu Xiaogang's tone became much more serious. "Senior, what do you think?"
"I wonder if you could give me this bit of face?"
