You can change your expression without getting pimples, right?

One second she was wiping away tears, the next her face fell.

"Tang San, let's just forget about it."

"We've only fought twice, and you've broken your bones both times."

"It's finally healed, don't break any more bones."

"There are no extra Wish Slot available for the Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul this month."

Xu Yuan offered kind words of advice.

Although the Wish-Granting Tree sacrificed twenty years of Tang San's lifespan, it did not cause Tang San's Soul Power Level to drop.

However, his Soul Power was drained, and it would be difficult for him to recover to his peak state in less than the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

"That's right, Tang San."

"Xu Yuan just used the Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul to heal your injuries, and you're already in such a hurry to challenge him?"

"That's incredibly ungrateful."

Xiao Wu frowned and said in a dissatisfied tone.

"Xiao Wu, you've misunderstood. How could I, Tang San, be the kind of despicable person who repays kindness with enmity and turns his back on those who have wronged him!"

"But I have been carrying a heavy burden, bearing the expectations of my father and teacher, and shouldering the responsibility of proving my teacher's Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul Theory!"

"I challenged Xu Yuan not for myself, but to prove my teacher's Martial Soul Theory, and to show the world that my teacher is not someone who seeks fame and fortune!"

Tang San stood on the moral high ground, adopting a compassionate and sympathetic posture as he spoke.

It was as if he had suffered a great injustice and endured countless misunderstandings.

"The Xiao San!"

Even Yu Xiaogang, who is skilled at manipulating people's hearts, couldn't help but shed tears. With such a disciple, what more could one ask for!

"Of course, I don't want to take advantage of Xu Yuan either."

"How about we make a bet?"

"Xu Yuan can continue to use his Soul Power and Soul Skill, while I will not use my Martial Soul, but only my Hidden Weapon and physical strength to spar with Xu Yuan!"

Tang San, with a mysterious smile on his lips, said with one hand behind his back.

In fact, he had already realized that his Soul Power had been drained by the Wish-Granting Tree.

Perhaps it was used to treat the fractures in both legs.

Tang San felt it was worth it; his Soul Power Level didn't drop, and he recovered his legs with only Level 16 Soul Power.

Incidentally, the effect of the Thousand-Year Soul Bone in his Right Leg was also removed, allowing him to use Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track again!

Wish-Granting Tree, oh Wish-Granting Tree, how long will you keep me captivated by you?

Tang San felt increasingly regretful that the Wish-Granting Tree wasn't his Martial Soul!

Xu Yuan, a Support System Soul Master, possesses such a heaven-defying Martial Soul; how could he possibly sleep at night?

If I could possess Wish-Granting Tree and combine it with the Tang Sect Secret Arts, how could I not establish my own Tang Sect!

"What are Hidden Weapon?" Xiao Wu asked, puzzled.

Thanks to Yu Xiaogang's tutelage, Tang San never had the chance to personally forge Hidden Weapon, let alone demonstrate them.

"Hidden Weapon are special weapons used covertly to defeat the enemy!"

Its core principle is surprise attack, concealment, and catching the enemy off guard!

"If the enemy knows you're going to use Hidden Weapon, then it's no longer Hidden Weapon, but an open weapon!"

"In other words, if I tell Xu Yuan that I'm going to use Hidden Weapon, then those Hidden Weapon will lose their maximum power!"

"However, Xu Yuan is Support System Soul Master. Although he excels in combat, I'm willing to suffer a little more loss!"

Tang San rolled up his right sleeve, revealing a hidden Sleeve Arrow.

Our bet is simple!

"If I defeat Xu Yuan, I don't want anything else, just that Xu Yuan attend the academy the teacher mentioned!"

"If I lose, you can do whatever you want with me, how about that?"

Whether you win or lose, you won't lose out!

Tang San continued with a smile, "I've laid everything out in the open, Xu Yuan, you're not scared now, are you?"

"..."

Xu Yuan was speechless upon hearing this.

An indispensable part of the Douluo Continent: the bet made by the Little Scumbag.

Along with Gangzi's ingenious scheme to seize grain supplies, it is considered one of the two insurmountable pinnacle battles of wits in the Douluo Continent.

Although it seems absurd at first glance, it is indeed true.

But in essence, it was the result of Tang San's skillful use of intelligence.

At first glance, it seemed that Tang San was unable to use his Soul Skill and was even resorting to Hidden Weapon, which caused him to suffer a great loss.

In reality, Tang San's Soul Power had long since run out, so even if he wanted to use it, he couldn't for the time being.

Furthermore, ordinary people have no idea of the true power of Hidden Weapon.

"Xu Yuan, I suspect something's fishy!"

"If Tang San really suffered so many losses, how could he still put on that confident expression?"

Xiao Wu frowned, realizing she had discovered a blind spot.

"Xiao Wu, I have a feeling!"

"You will become the most intelligent rabbit in the entire Douluo Continent!"

Xu Yuan patted Xiao Wu's head and said.

"Hmph, Sister Xiao Wu has always been very wise, okay!"

Xiao Wu pouted her little lips and said.

However, no matter what trump cards Tang San had, it was all destined to be in vain.

Xiao Wu looked at Tang San with pity; he had no idea what kind of monster was standing in front of him.

"Tang San, I'm not interested in betting with you."

I have no intention of disciplining you.

"Xiao Wu and I still need to go to the Academic Affairs Office to complete the necessary procedures. If there's nothing else, then we'll take our leave."

Xu Yuan took Xiao Wu's hand and walked towards the teaching building.

"Etc!"

Tang San blocked their way.

"Tang San, if you don't move aside, I won't be polite."

"Oh, how can you be so impolite?"

Tang San's eyes lit up; he had been worried that Xu Yuan wouldn't make a move!

"Well then, how about this, I'll make a bet with you!"

"I won't use Soul Power or Soul Skill. As long as you can withstand one of my punches without falling, I'll agree to everything you said."

Xu Yuan spoke, he glanced at Yu Xiaogang, who was not far away.

"Xu Yuan is Support System Soul Master, and both of his Soul Skill are typical defensive and Auxiliary System Soul Skill!"

"If you don't use Soul Skill, how strong can your physical strength be?"

Tang San and his disciple, who had never seen Xu Yuan make a real move, thought to themselves.

"I agree!"

"Xu Yuan, you'll regret this. The advanced academy I mentioned is called Shrek, located in Suotuo City!"

Yu Xiaogang said impatiently.

Tang San thought for a moment, then nodded.

He vaguely remembered that when Xu Yuan first arrived at the dormitory, Xiao Wu sat down on him, leaving him powerless to resist.

Xu Yuan's true strength lies in the Soul Skill of his Wish-Granting Tree Martial Soul.

Moreover, the Tang Sect Secret Arts Mysterious Jade Hand, can enhance the strength of both arms, and even Wang Sheng's strength may not surpass his.

"Grandmaster, if something goes wrong with my punch, don't come looking for me!"

Xu Yuan had given a heads-up beforehand.

While deliberately holding back might prevent Tang San from being sent flying with a single punch, what if one lost control of their strength?

"Ha ha ha ha..."

"Xu Yuan, according to my research on Martial Soul Theory, Support System Soul Master are the weakest!"

"Go ahead and make your move. If Xiao San can't even withstand a single punch, he doesn't deserve to be called my disciple, Yu Xiaogang!"

The words had barely left his mouth.

Tang San focused his energy in his Dantian, firmly planted his feet in a horse stance, and covered his hands with a layer of crystalline, cold jade-like color.

It is none other than the Tang Sect Secret Arts, the Mysterious Jade Hand!

"A normal punch!"

Xu Yuan didn't waste any words and threw a punch.

"Mysterious Jade Hand!"

Tang San was not careless; even a lion fights a rabbit with all its might!

Since Xu Yuan dared to propose this bet, it means he has some confidence.

"What a pity! My Mysterious Jade Hand is impervious to blades and spears, and immune to all poisons!"

A faint smile curved Tang San's lips; he seemed to already see the dawn of victory...
