"Wait, that's not right!"
"I really do have to obey you! Hey, what's going on? Why do I have to do absolutely everything you say?!"
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm shouted frantically inside Yun Tian's Sea of Consciousness.
He had just wanted to test whether all his actions from now on really had to follow Yun Tian's wishes.
So he had tried to leave the Sea of Consciousness and use his spiritual power to form a soul body in the outside world.
But the instant he tried to move, alarm jolted through him. His entire body went utterly rigid, as though he would die the very next moment.
And the reason for all of this was actually that Yun Tian had not agreed to let him use his spiritual power to form a soul body outside.
Listening to the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's shouting in his Sea of Consciousness, Yun Tian was puzzled too.
What did he mean, his every move had to obey Yun Tian? How come Yun Tian knew nothing about it?
"First, agree to let me use my spiritual power to form a soul body outside."
Inside the Sea of Consciousness, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm suddenly felt that choosing this candidate somehow seemed like selling himself off.
Hearing this, Yun Tian silently nodded.
Then a transparent figure with the face of an unfamiliar man appeared before him.
"I'm done for!"
The moment the soul body formed from the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's spiritual power emerged, he began to bawl.
Didn't this mean he could only be a slave from now on?
Although Yun Tian did not understand what was going on, it was actually to his advantage.
"It's not like I'm some evil person. What are you scared of?"
He, Yun Tian, was certainly not one of those evil people the Tang God-King talked about.
"Ah, forget it, forget it. I chose you, after all."
The Sky Dream Ice Silkworm floated in midair and spoke with a dejected expression.
As the saying went, marry a rooster and follow the rooster; marry a dog and follow the dog.
He, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm, was now thoroughly bound to the human before him.
Although he had to obey him, the other party did not look like some black-hearted boss who exploited his workers.
So he could still accept it.
"I'm going back. Let me soothe this tender little heart of mine myself."
With that, the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm tried to return to Yun Tian's Sea of Consciousness.
But suddenly, without Yun Tian's permission, he could not get back in...
Then he turned an extremely aggrieved gaze, even tinged with despair, toward Yun Tian.
"Go back, go back."
Seeing the look on the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm's face, Yun Tian forcibly suppressed his laughter and waved a hand.
Only after receiving Yun Tian's permission did the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm finally return to Yun Tian's Sea of Consciousness as he wished.
After letting the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm return to his Sea of Consciousness, Yun Tian swung himself onto Sang Biao.
"Huh? Sang Biao, did you install air conditioning inside your body?"
Feeling the chill beneath him, Yun Tian looked at Sang Biao in confusion, and Sang Biao also raised their head.
Those pitch-black eyes were filled with enormous question marks.
"Oh, I almost forgot. You've gone back to your old home."
Meanwhile, inside Heaven Dou City.
"Xiaogang, how are you feeling?"
In the Seven Treasure Hotel, Flender looked at Yu Xiaogang, who lay on the bed and slowly opened his eyes, and asked worriedly.
Why did his old friend have such a bitter lot in life?
Tang San and the others had eaten the Ginseng King too, but their soul power had increased, and their cultivation had sped up.
Yet when it came to his old friend, why had his martial soul become even more useless and his soul power regressed?
Heaven truly was unjust!
Heaven envied the talented!
Lying on the bed, Yu Xiaogang recalled the scene from that day and wanted nothing more than to find a pillar and smash his head against it until he died.
He had painstakingly cultivated for so many years, finally managing to reach rank twenty-nine.
Now it was all gone, and losing his soul power was not even the end of it. Even his martial soul had turned completely into a little spotted pig!
Seeing Yu Xiaogang looking as though he no longer wanted to live, Flender's heart lurched.
Nothing could happen to Xiaogang! If something happened to him, where would that leave their Shrek Academy?
Besides, if Xiaogang really died, who knew how heartbroken Erlong would be?
He could not bear to see Erlong so heartbroken!
"Xiaogang, you have to pull yourself together! Xiaosan, Mubai, and the others are still waiting for your guidance!"
"Yes, Teacher, you must pull yourself together! We're all still waiting for you to lead us to victory in the Soul Master Tournament!"
Tang San walked over just then, tears falling from his eyes.
He had long regarded this great teacher before him as equal to his own father.
In his eyes, his teacher was far better than his father, who did nothing but drink.
If that man had not been his biological father, whom he was obliged to respect,
he would have settled accounts with him long ago.
Yu Xiaogang slowly lifted his eyelids and turned to look at Tang San.
That was right. He still had Tang San.
Although he himself was now utterly ruined, Xiaosan was not.
Neither were Dai Mubai and the others.
With Dai Mubai and the others' talents, he had absolute confidence that he could train them into Soul Douluos, or even Titled Douluos.
With Tang San added to the mix, he would at least be the teacher of one Titled Douluo and five Soul Douluos in the future!
Moreover, he could lead Tang San and the others to win the Soul Master Tournament.
Teacher of the championship team, teacher of a Titled Douluo, teacher of Soul Douluos.
With such titles to his name, he could still return home in silken glory and slap the faces of those who had once looked down on him and mocked him!
And perhaps, upon seeing such an incredible figure as him, the Heaven Dou Empire might even appoint him imperial preceptor!
An imperial preceptor of either of the two great empires held a position no lower than the sect masters of the Upper Three Sects!
At this thought, the flames of hope rekindled in Yu Xiaogang's eyes.
Since this damned heaven has set itself against me, the Grandmaster, and refuses to let me reach the summit of Soul Masters,
then I will reach the summit through scholarship. I will make those people beg me to teach their descendants!
My fate, the fate of Yu Xiaogang, will be decided by me!
"Xiaosan, thank goodness I still have you!"
Yu Xiaogang hugged Tang San, weeping bitterly. At that moment, his heart was filled with relief.
Relief that he still had such a precious disciple.
Seeing his old friend return to his former ambitious self, Flender finally felt the weight lift from his heart.
"Dean Flender!"
Just then, the tightly shut door was abruptly pushed open.
Qin Ming walked in, his face filled with resentment.
"Xiaoming, what brings you here?"
Seeing that it was Qin Ming, Flender was somewhat surprised.
He had told him to come here and find them whenever something came up, but in their current condition, even if Qin Ming needed something, they were powerless to help.
"Those people at Heaven Dou Royal Academy have gone too far."
"That trash academy doesn't deserve to have me stay there any longer."
Qin Ming viciously cursed Heaven Dou Royal Academy in his heart.
Those three education committee members were simply old and blind!
Their Shrek Academy was so outstanding, yet they adamantly refused to let them join Heaven Dou Royal Academy.
They would not even agree to rescue the junior student who had been taken away.
Fortunately, his dean and junior students were all unharmed.
Otherwise,
he, Qin Ming, would destroy Heaven Dou Royal Academy, whatever the cost!
