Bibi Dong Was Chosen! A Showdown with Gu Xingzhou!

[???]

[What kind of dance is Pole Dance??]

[Gangzi's signature dance?]

[666, that Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo is still steaming!]

[Does he seriously never run out of ideas?]

[More like, that wasn't even Gangzi at his most outrageous before!]

[Holy hell, Gangzi's gone wild!]

[Liu Erlong: Xiaogang...]

[Yu Xiaogang: ...It's fine. At this point, my heart is already still as water. This punishment is nothing.]

[Gu Xingzhou: As expected of Grandmaster! Admirable!]

[Ning Rongrong: As expected of Grandmaster!]

[Flender: Xiaogang's spirit is worth learning from!]

[Gu Xingzhou: Studying it with the utmost seriousness!]

[Ma Hongjun: +1!]

[Oscar: +1!]

In the Soul Hunting Forest, beside the Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo, Yu Xiaogang watched everyone's discussion with a calm face. It wasn't that he'd made peace with it; he was simply out of options...

Tang San looked at his teacher, his eyes full of sympathy, though a trace of respect flashed through them too.

His teacher Gangzi truly had a strong heart. Though the Fanfiction Livestream had made a mockery of him so many times, a teacher for a day was a father for life. Tang San still believed in him.

After all, he was the only one who had recognized Tang San's Twin Martial Souls.

Without the livestream, no one else could possibly have known Tang San had Twin Martial Souls.

And when Tang San had nearly choked to death on a steamed bun, Yu Xiaogang really had saved him, even if it had been a little disgusting.

Tang San wasn't unreasonable. His teacher had kindly brought him food, and getting it stuck in his throat had indeed been his own fault.

As for the script's account of his ascent to the Divine Realm without taking Gangzi along, Tang San felt somewhat guilty about that too.

"Teacher, please begin. I'll study carefully!"

The words slipped out of Tang San's mouth. Clearly, the livestream had prompted him to say them.

"Very well, Little San. Watch closely."

"This is a Soul Skill I created myself. Through dance, it beguiled the enemy, made them lower their guard, and drew them into infatuation. Even a few seconds would be enough for us to strike a fatal blow."

"I named it Tough Bamboo Temptation."

"Next, I'll explain the key points."

"First comes the outfit. This is of the utmost importance. Watch your teacher..."

Yu Xiaogang's words fell away.

A sacred golden light enveloped him. The next instant, his black robe was gone, replaced by a tight pink dress.

It was so tight that the contours of his muscles stood out clearly.

A pair of pink over-the-knee socks covered his powerful thighs.

And above the pink dress sat a matching pair of Bunny Ears.

"..."

"That outfit looks so familiar..."

Tang San froze at the sudden sight. He was so stunned he couldn't immediately remember whose outfit it was.

Through the ink-wash scroll, Yu Xiaogang saw what he looked like too. His whole body trembled as shame swelled within him!

He'd thought his skin had grown as thick as it could get, yet this still defeated him!

This was too perverted...

[???]

[Holy shit, he's really become outrageous Gangzi now!]

[Gangzi has a certain lingering charm too, if you ask me...]

[Isn't that a little too subtle???]

[I'm already drooling!]

[Now that's got style! What a treat!]

[Elite Livestream Room]

[Ma Hongjun: Uh...]

[Liu Erlong: Ah...]

[Bibi Dong: ...]

[Flender: It's over. That image... I'm afraid I'll never get it out of my head when I see Xiaogang again.]

[Oscar: It's a bit hard on the eyes, but dare I say... it suits him just a tiny bit?]

[Xiao Wu: !!!]

[Xiao Wu: Grandmaster, you're such a pervert!!]

[Xiao Wu: Isn't that the same outfit as mine?!]

[Xiao Wu: Gross... Gu Xingzhou, take off those clothes and let me wear them. I never want to wear this outfit again!]

[Gu Xingzhou: No can do. I don't have any other clothes.]

[Xiao Wu: o(╥﹏╥)o]

[Ning Rongrong: Poor Xiao Wu...]

[Xiao Wu: Can't I get compensation for emotional distress? Draw me a reward...]

[Xiao Wu: o(╥﹏╥)o]

But the Soft-Boned Gang couldn't defend himself. Instead, he crouched down with a perfectly serious expression.

The familiar movement immediately filled him with unease.

Sure enough, just as he had on the rooftop, he wore a dress identical to Xiao Wu's and a pair of Bunny Ears. Facing his own disciple Tang San, he stuck out his tongue and flashed two Peace Signs...

Then he explained with grave seriousness, "Remember this. It's the opening stance."

"In my experience, this move lets you seize the initiative and leaves the enemy dumbstruck."

"Then, we can use that chance to hold on to the Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo, stick out our backside, and use this outfit to show off our alluring figure. Give the enemy a glimpse of your profile and cast them a flirtatious glance. I know you may lack confidence in your looks, Little San, but don't worry. I've tested this move countless times. No matter what you look like, as long as you follow my sequence of moves precisely and channel your Soul Power, you'll achieve a bewitching effect!"

"Then comes the most important part: Pole Dance!"

"This dance isn't just meant to captivate the enemy. While they're admiring your moves, it lets you slip naturally into a fighting stance. Even when you're ready to stab them with the Lone Bamboo, they'll still think you're only dancing."

As he spoke, Yu Xiaogang took hold of the Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo and began to dance. His movements were sensual, his poses impossibly seductive. The Ten-Year Solitary Bamboo lived up to its toughness: even when Yu Xiaogang lifted both feet off the ground and spun a full three hundred and sixty degrees around it, it didn't bend in the slightest!

As Gangzi danced, seductive music started up in the livestream, perfectly timed to every beat!

The Pole Dance left Tang San staring in a daze...

[That's way too seductive!]

[Who wouldn't lose their head over that?]

[An enemy would lose all will to fight. They'd have to stop and watch the whole thing before they could bear to attack!]

[I'm jealous of Tang San. He gets to see it live, face-to-face!]

[Gangzi really is the ultimate authority!]

[Too bad this is a punishment, so we can't vote. Otherwise, I'd genuinely give Gangzi my Popularity Vote!]

[666, voting is just your excuse. If you actually could vote, you'd change your tune.]

[Elite Livestream Room]

[Ning Rongrong: Good thing the livestream is controlling his body... Otherwise, how much conviction would it take to finish that dance?!]

[Gu Xingzhou: Hasn't anyone noticed that Grandmaster's Peace Signs are getting smoother? Honestly, I don't think he'd need the livestream controlling him. Something this small wouldn't trouble Grandmaster!]

[Xiao Wu: If only he weren't wearing the same outfit as me.]

[Xiao Wu: o(╥﹏╥)o]

[Liu Erlong: ...I never imagined Xiaogang could be so... ahem...]

[Flender: That was quite an eye-opener...]

[Ma Hongjun: Grandmaster really is incredible!]

[Yu Xiaogang's punishment is over!]

[The lineup for the next round will now be announced!]

[Everyone, please cast your Popularity Votes!]

[The lineup is as follows]

[1. Tang San (winner of the previous round)]

[Yu Xiaogang's personal disciple. Possesses Twin Martial Souls.]

[2. Bibi Dong]

[Pope of Spirit Hall]

[3. Flender]

[Dean of Shrek Academy.]

[4. Gu Xingzhou]

[Work-study student at Notting Academy and Tang San's roommate.]

[In the next round, the two with the most Popularity Votes among these four will be chosen to perform!]
