Douluo Continent: Invincible Since Being Forced into Marriage by a Goddess

[2 Host's overall physical attributes increased by 30%.]

[3 Host's first Soul Ring age limit increased by 300 years.]

That was only natural.

"Option 1."

After a brief consideration, Su Bei made his choice.

It was time for him to become stronger too.

A brilliant smile spread across Su Bei's handsome face. Watching Liu Erlong storm out and truly break up with Yu Xiaogang, he inwardly cheered. Well done! Let that scumbag die alone after letting down goddess after goddess!

Tang San, standing nearby, was stunned by Su Bei's handsome, sunny smile.

When Liu Erlong saw Su Bei, her expression softened. She scooped him up, her soft breasts pressing against him as she held him tightly. "Bei, Xiao Wu, let's go home."

"Okay!"

Su Bei nodded hard and winked at Tang San. "Don't forget our promise."

"A promise? What promise? What shameful little secret did you two share behind my back?" Xiao Wu was slightly angry.

Notting Academy.

Liu Erlong's furious departure with Su Bei and Xiao Wu drew quite a bit of attention.

People gathered outside Grandmaster's room, pointing and whispering.

"What happened?"

"Did Grandmaster offend someone?"

"That fiery goddess... did Grandmaster fool around outside? He even has a child... Damn, that kid is way too good-looking!"

"If that's the case, I'd be happy to take over."

"I've always thought Grandmaster had that annoying, blind self-confidence. His Martial Soul is clearly trash, yet he acts all high and mighty. He deserves it!"

"But being able to hook up with such a hot goddess means his life wasn't wasted. I'm so jealous."

Bang—!

Grandmaster slammed the door shut with a thunderous crash, startling everyone outside. They immediately cursed, "Psycho!"

How could these passersby possibly understand Yu Xiaogang's suffering?

He collapsed into his chair. His already weathered face became even more dejected, making him look older still as he muttered to himself, "What do you know... Nothing ever happened between us. They all wanted to save their first time for their wedding night, but none of them made it that far with me. I have a useless Martial Soul, while they were proud daughters standing high above me. Even after giving it everything I had, I couldn't even see their backs."

"And yet, every one of them fell for a piece of trash like me. I eagerly went to them and spent those beautiful youthful years together... only to leave in utter defeat..."

Knock, knock~

The knocking broke the quiet, awkward atmosphere and brought Yu Xiaogang back to his senses.

"Who is it?" Yu Xiaogang's heart leaped.

Could Erlong have regretted it and come back to apologize?

"It's me, Tang San," Tang San said from outside.

So it was the child he had just saved from the gatekeeper.

Yu Xiaogang was somewhat disappointed, but he still forced some life back into his expression. "Come in."

Tang San came respectfully before Yu Xiaogang. Though he felt somewhat put off by the middle-aged man before him, he maintained the courtesy he ought to show. "Teacher, thank you."

"Whew~"

Yu Xiaogang looked at the ordinary-looking child before him and recalled that his Martial Soul was Blue Silver Grass—and that he possessed Innate Full Soul Power.

Just as Su Bei had predicted, Yu Xiaogang suddenly had a flash of inspiration. Blue Silver Grass was a trash Martial Soul, so it surely could not naturally possess Innate Full Soul Power. He had recently been researching Twin Martial Souls, so he began to consider that this child might possess Twin Martial Souls.

The only thing he could still take pride in now was his unparalleled wisdom.

If he could take in a child with Innate Full Soul Power as his disciple, that would not be a bad source of comfort.

So he guided him. "Teacher? I am not a teacher at this academy. Tang San, you must understand that there is a vast difference between a teacher and a Grandmaster. Don't call me that incorrectly in the future, unless..."

Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San. A blazing light flickered within his ash-gray eyes. "Unless you are truly willing to let me be your teacher."

Tang San's heart thumped. Just as that handsome youth had said, this man called Grandmaster wanted to take him as a disciple!
