"Xiao Gang, here are your 500 Gold Soul Coin for this month!"

Scarface licked his thick lips and transferred five hundred Gold Soul Coin into the ring-shaped Storage Soul Tool he had used before.

Yu Xiaogang's eyes were vacant, staring blankly at the ceiling, his mind seemingly lost in thought.

"Your Nuoding City is located in a very remote area, and the Soul Master teams in the surrounding Soul Hunting Forest don't earn much money."

Scarface straightened his disheveled clothes and spoke calmly.

A glint of light flashed in Yu Xiaogang's empty eyes.

Could it be that Scarface has finally come to his senses and is preparing to leave Nuoding City?

"In order to have enough Gold Soul Coin to train your disciple Tang San, I have decided to accept the Empire's offer!"

"From this day forward, I am a member of the Notting Noble family, and I also serve as the Honorary Vice- Dean of the Nuoding Academy!"

Yu Xiaogang's vision went black; the anxiety that had been building within him finally died.

He couldn't imagine how miserable his future life would be.

"Xiao Gang, don't get too excited!"

"My becoming the vice- Dean of the Nuoding Academy isn't necessarily a bad thing for you!"

"Your disciple needs my help, the Soul King, to find a suitable Second Soul Ring?"

Scarface had already grasped Yu Xiaogang's most fatal weakness.

No matter the posture... no, no matter the situation, as long as Tang San is the breakthrough point, success is guaranteed!

"The Xiao San..."

Yu Xiaogang lay on the bed, his round face streaked with tears. For Tang San's future, he could only endure it.

"As long as I can train my Xiao San to become Titled Douluo, all the sacrifices and costs will be worthwhile!"

Yu Xiaogang bit his lip, his fists clenching weakly.

"Oh, right, remember to wear white socks from now on!"

Scarface tossed out his last words, patted Yu Xiaogang's buttocks, and then left the house feeling refreshed.

Yu Xiaogang didn't continue sleeping. He struggled to get up, put on a high-necked black robe, and went to the Nuoding Academy Cafeteria with his crutches.

"Grandmaster, you've come again?"

The chefs in the Cafeteria were already used to seeing the Grandmaster in person.

Ever since Tang San started training his Burst Step while carrying stones on his back, Yu Xiaogang has taken complete control of Tang San's daily diet.

He skillfully put on a white chef's hat, then walked to the stove and stiffly turned on the fire.

Because he had specifically trained in culinary skills, Yu Xiaogang's cooking skills are quite good.

It could even be said that he surpasses many ordinary chefs.

"You all leave first!" Yu Xiaogang said curtly.

He prepared a medicinal meal for Tang San, the recipe of which came from the Spirit Hall Library and was a closely guarded secret.

How could we allow these lowly cooks at the Nuoding Academy to steal such valuable knowledge of medicinal cuisine?

These were all painstakingly copied and researched by him!

"Grandmaster, you're busy!" The chefs in the Cafeteria exchanged glances and left the Cafeteria with a sigh.

Yu Xiaogang added the various medicines one by one, and the rich, boiling broth immediately emitted a faint medicinal fragrance.

Looking at the well-cooked meat bubbling in the broth, a stiff smile appeared on his face.

"The Xiao San lacked love growing up. With this combination of emotional support, how could she possibly resist my guidance?"

To ensure Tang San wouldn't resist the training plan, Yu Xiaogang resorted to dirty psychological tactics.

This is a top-tier killing move that even the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall couldn't withstand.

Back then, he used a bowl of ordinary white porridge to get Bibi Dong to give him a pass to the Spirit Hall's high-level library.

In the entire Douluo Continent, who else could achieve this level of skill?

Sure enough, when Yu Xiaogang appeared in front of Tang San, who was training while carrying a stone on his back, with that bowl of rich meat soup.

Tang San's pent-up resentment vanished, replaced by a warm feeling as he said, "Teacher, you don't need to wait for me here!"

"The body is the foundation of cultivation. Without a healthy body, how can one withstand the pain of training?"

Yu Xiaogang handed over the bowl of warm meat soup, and then took out two steamed buns and two boiled eggs from his pocket.

"Teacher, I..."

"Alright, eat up, it won't taste good if it gets cold."

Yu Xiaogang patted Tang San on the shoulder and sat down on the boulder next to him, leaning on his cane.

"Xiao San, how's the training going lately? Are you feeling too much pressure?" Yu Xiaogang asked softly.

Actually, he was quite satisfied with Tang San.

Although he would occasionally tinker with small gadgets in secret, he meticulously completed all the plans he made.

"Teacher, don't worry, I can manage, it's just that my legs are always numb!"

Tang San took a bite of the steamed bun and then drank a sip of the meat broth.

Then she raised her slightly numb legs and showed them to Yu Xiaogang.

"Ha ha ha ha..."

Yu Xiaogang patted Tang San's Right Leg and laughed, "Xiao San, it's okay. A numb leg means you're building muscle!"

"So that's how it is!" Tang San said, chewing on his steamed bun.

"That's it!" Yu Xiaogang exclaimed confidently. "Has your leg strength increased a lot?"

"Our teacher truly deserves to be called Theoretical Grandmaster!"

Tang San exclaimed in sincere admiration.

If it weren't for the Right Leg Soul Bone preventing him from using Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, his speed would definitely be much higher now.

The thought that he couldn't cultivate the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track made Tang San's eyes dim slightly.

However, with Xu Yuan's Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul as a backup, he wasn't in a hurry.

"Teacher, you can go back now. I'll run a couple more laps with the stones on my back and recite your invincible theory while I'm at it!"

Seeing a hint of purple appear on the horizon, Tang San hurriedly began to secretly cultivate the Purple Demon Eye.

"Hmph!" Yu Xiaogang snorted coldly in his heart, dissatisfied.

He knew perfectly well what Tang San was thinking; he simply wanted to secretly practice that strange eye technique!

"The Spirit Hall Library seems to have some external application prescriptions specifically for improving eyesight."

Yu Xiaogang's mind raced as he recalled those prescriptions.

Eye-training involves the brain's meridians, which are extremely fragile, making it difficult for Soul Master to cultivate and utilize them.

Therefore, many of the predecessors of the Spirit Hall took a different approach and chose to Medicinal Bath to improve their eyesight.

Yu Xiaogang made up his mind to go back and organize these materials to give his beloved disciple Tang San a surprise.

"Teacher?" Tang San was anxious, but dared not show it.

"Sigh, since you have this idea, and I, your teacher..."

Before he could finish speaking...

A commotion suddenly erupted at the entrance of the Nuoding Academy.

"Nuoding Academy, Sister Xiao Wu is back!"

Back at the Nuoding Academy, Xiao Wu regained her energy.

"Oh, Xiao Wu is back?"

"Oh, could it be that Xu Yuan is back?"

Tang San and Yu Xiaogang said in unison.

Tang San was speechless upon hearing this; his teacher still couldn't forget Xu Yuan's Martial Soul.

Of course, Tang San's heart was also somewhat restless.

He wished he could run to Xu Yuan immediately and have the Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul remove or change the effect of his Right Leg Soul Bone.

This way, he can practice Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track again.

Unfortunately, the teacher wouldn't allow Xu Yuan to make a wish.

"Tang San, just now... Grandmaster, what are you doing here?"

As soon as Xiao Wu entered Nuoding Academy, she noticed Yu Xiaogang and his apprentice sitting beside a giant rock not far away.

"Xiao Wu, why are you only just getting back?"

"Classes officially start tomorrow!"

Looking at Xiao Wu, whose temperament had become even more aloof and sacred, yet still exuded a vibrant energy, Tang San couldn't help but say.

If only Xiao Wu were my younger sister!

Unlike now, when Xu Yuan holds her in his arms every night.

Besides, could something have happened between Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu?

Tang San's eyes were filled with doubt as he noticed that Xu Yuan and Xiao Wu's appearances had both changed.

The two stood together and looked extremely harmonious.

Tang San didn't know how to describe this strange feeling.

"Go to class? Sister Xiao Wu doesn't want to go to class!"

"Yes, Tang San, we're back this time to process our withdrawal from school!"

One sentence stirred up a huge wave!

Xu Yuan had barely finished speaking when Yu Xiaogang jumped out to refute him.

"Drop out of school? You're only seven! What are you talking about dropping out of school!"

"How can this be allowed!"

This theoretically invincible Grandmaster hadn't even fully grasped the Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul; how could he let Xu Yuan leave?
