"Yu Xiaogang, stop changing the subject!"

"But since you've raised the question, I'll be merciful enough to tell you:"

"I, Yao Xuan, planted that Recording Soul Tool to utterly ruin your reputation. Well? Surprised? Didn't see that coming, did you?"

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Yao Xuan smiled faintly and openly admitted it.

After all, he wasn't as hypocritical and shameless as Yu Xiaogang.

Yu Xiaogang had clearly made the bet himself, yet stubbornly refused to admit it and kept trying to wriggle out of paying up.

Since Yao Xuan had placed the Recording Soul Tool there, he naturally chose to say so openly and honorably.

Without the slightest pretense or hesitation.

"Besides, I recorded that footage for your own good, Yu Xiaogang!"

"After all, you've always boasted that you're a Grandmaster, but no one acknowledged it."

"But now, I believe your title of 'Big Wet One' should already be ringing like thunder in the ears of every teacher and student at Nuoding Academy."

"So, Yu Xiaogang, I helped fulfill your 'dream of becoming a Grandmaster,' yet instead of thanking me, you blame me. Just what are your intentions?"

Then Yao Xuan looked at Yu Xiaogang again, a mocking smile on his face as he spoke in a sarcastic tone.

"Teacher Yao Xuan really is open and honorable! A real man owns up to his actions. That's the example we should follow, far better than a hypocrite like Yu Xiaogang!"

"Exactly! Besides, Teacher Yao Xuan did the right thing. I support openly exposing a clown like Yu Xiaogang with both hands raised!"

"I agree! Everyone at the academy should see Yu Xiaogang's true character! Well done recording it, Teacher Yao Xuan!"

Hearing Yao Xuan's words, the Nuoding Academy students all cast admiring, worshipful looks at him!

They admired not only his openness and willingness to own up to his actions.

They worshipped him all the more for having the ability and boldness to expose Yu Xiaogang.

"That's Brother Xuan for you!"

Watching Yao Xuan exude such overwhelming confidence, a trace of adoration also flashed through Gu Yuena's beautiful purple eyes.

As for Xiao Wu, she kept applauding Yao Xuan from below the stage.

Yu Xiaogang, on the other hand.

After exposing Yao Xuan's "secret filming," he saw that he had not only failed to muddy the waters, but had instead won Yao Xuan another wave of support.

At once, Yu Xiaogang's expression darkened further, and he felt like a clown jumping about on a beam.

"Yu Xiaogang, nothing left to say?"

"I've always acted openly and honorably. You, on the other hand-"

"You made a bet in front of so many people, then turned around and claimed you didn't remember. Your hide must be the thickest on the entire Douluo Continent!"

"I suggest you accept your loss and honestly admit that you're a fraud and a fake Grandmaster."

Just then, Yao Xuan continued speaking.

"Hmph, Yao Xuan, no matter what, you secretly filmed me, damaged my reputation, and made a fool of me!"

"Isn't making me admit I'm a fake Grandmaster and a fraud also meant to humiliate me and make a fool of me?"

"Now that you've already achieved your goal ahead of time, the bet naturally no longer counts. I won't hold you responsible for secretly filming me either. How about that?"

Hearing Yao Xuan's words, Yu Xiaogang snorted coldly and once again began changing the subject.

He was still trying to use the secret filming as an excuse to wriggle out of the bet, simply unwilling to admit with his own mouth that he was a fake Grandmaster.

"Hmph, who said I made that bet with you to make a fool of you?"

"I only wanted to strip away your layers of disguise and reveal your true nature as a fraud and an ignorant, unlearned fake Grandmaster!"

"That would also stop you from using a fake Grandmaster's title to swindle people here and harm innocent children in the future!"

Looking at Yu Xiaogang in the distance, Yao Xuan spoke calmly.

"Yao Xuan, I'm no fake Grandmaster! My ten core competitiveness theory for martial souls consists of golden rules I derived by analyzing countless cases. It can be called the truth of the Soul Master World!"

"You ordinary fools are simply too dull-witted to understand the depth and intricacy of my theory, yet you turn around and slander me. You're jealous of my achievements!"

At this point, Yu Xiaogang raised his head again, and even his voice grew considerably louder.

"Yu Xiaogang, I really can't imagine how you manage to be so mediocre yet so confident and shameless!"

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Yao Xuan laughed in anger again, then said, "Since you won't acknowledge the previous bet, let's make another one in front of all the teachers and students!"

"If I can point out errors in your theory, you'll publicly admit that you're a fake Grandmaster and a fraud."

"If I can't, I lose, and that will cancel out this Soul Fighting match. I can let you bluff your way through and won't trouble you again. Do you have the courage?"

Looking at Yu Xiaogang before him, Yao Xuan spoke calmly.

This was precisely the open stratagem Yao Xuan had left for Yu Xiaogang!

If he didn't dare take the bet, it would prove his guilty conscience and completely expose him as a fraud!

And if he agreed...

Faced with those ten absurd theories, riddled with errors and cobbled together from here and there.

Yao Xuan could only say that Yu Xiaogang would still have to obediently admit he was a great fraud and a fake Grandmaster!

"Of course I dare. Bring it on!"

"My ten core competitiveness theory of martial souls is the golden rule of the Soul Master World. You can't possibly find any errors in it!"

Hearing Yao Xuan's words, Yu Xiaogang could only straighten his back and answer with feigned composure.

He knew full well that he absolutely could not show fear now, or his cover would be completely blown.

Of course, although Yu Xiaogang looked very confident.

Beneath the cover of his gray robe, his legs had already begun trembling uncontrollably.

Because he had a premonition that Yao Xuan had definitely dug a huge pit and was waiting for him to jump in!

"Good, very good. Then I'll use the theory you're best at and proudest of to utterly shatter your false title of 'Grandmaster' and let everyone see your true face as a swindler!"

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Yao Xuan smiled.

And upon hearing Yao Xuan's words, the entire field instantly fell silent.

Every teacher and student of Nuoding Academy cast admiring, expectant looks his way.

They could hardly wait for Yao Xuan to completely tear away Yu Xiaogang's veil of shame and make him honestly accept his loss!

"Yu Xiaogang, let me ask you. Isn't there a claim in your bullshit theory that the kind of Soul Ring a Soul Master absorbs determines the kind of Soul Skill they obtain?"

Looking at Yu Xiaogang, Yao Xuan questioned him calmly.

"That's right. It's the conclusion I reached after summarizing the Soul Rings and Soul Skill effects of several thousand Soul Masters, and it's also the most fundamental principle in the ten core competencies theory!"

"The First Soul Skill is determined by the First Soul Ring, and the Second Soul Skill by the Second Soul Ring. That's an iron law recognized across the entire continent. Don't tell me you intend to claim it's wrong?"

Hearing Yao Xuan's words, Yu Xiaogang first froze, then asked in return.
