After escaping Dorm Seven, the two were still shaken.
Just hearing the name of Yu Xiaogang's Soul Skill was enough to tell them how terrifyingly powerful it was.
Gu Chen knew what Yu Xiaogang's Soul Skill did, but even Xiao Wu, who knew nothing about it, had nearly burst into tears when she heard the incantation Yu Xiaogang shouted to release it.
The human world is so scary!
She wanted to go home!
Even a hundred-thousand-year transformed soul beast was trembling with fear.
"Thank you, Gu Chen!"
Quite some time passed before Xiao Wu finally recovered from her fright and thanked Gu Chen, who stood beside her. If he hadn't led her out of Dorm Seven, Yu Xiaogang's fart might have blasted her. At the thought, she could barely control her expression.
If she really had been hit, she would never have had the face to return to the Star Dou Great Forest.
A hundred-thousand-year soul beast blasted by a fart.
The very thought was laughable.
"No need to thank me. It was nothing."
Gu Chen spoke calmly.
Afterward, he set off toward the academic affairs office.
"Gu Chen, where are you going?"
Xiao Wu asked instinctively.
"To find Director Su. Yu Xiaogang barged into Dorm Seven without permission and even released a Soul Skill at the students inside. That's a serious violation of school rules. Besides, Yu Xiaogang is a level twenty-nine Soul Grandmaster. There's no telling how many people were hurt by that Soul Skill. We have to get Director Su to deal with it quickly."
Gu Chen quickly explained.
Although he had secretly fanned the flames, the situation had ultimately started because Tang San went looking for trouble. Still, he couldn't just stand by and do nothing. Since he couldn't solve it himself, he naturally had to find someone who could.
"Yes, yes, you're right!"
Xiao Wu nodded repeatedly, finding his words quite reasonable.
Besides, if Yu Xiaogang didn't leave Dorm Seven, she wouldn't dare go back. After all, nobody wanted to be blasted by a fart.
No!
Could she even go back to Dorm Seven after it had been blasted by a fart?
Xiao Wu fell into deep thought.
Gu Chen paid her no mind and strode toward the academic affairs office. Seeing him leave, Xiao Wu hurried after him.
Before long.
They arrived at the academic affairs office.
"Director Su, something terrible has happened! Yu Xiaogang forced his way into Dorm Seven and released a Soul Skill right there! My roommates have already fallen victim to him!!!"
Gu Chen started shouting as soon as he entered.
At those words.
Director Su shot to his feet.
"What did you say?"
"Yu Xiaogang, you're courting death!!!"
Director Su flew into a rage. Normally, he couldn't be bothered with Yu Xiaogang. He had reprimanded him for berating students before, but Yu Xiaogang hadn't changed. Still, since no one had been hurt or killed, he had ultimately let it go for the sake of Yu Xiaogang's friendship with the academy head.
But today, Yu Xiaogang had dared to directly injure students of Nuoding Academy. How could he tolerate it any longer?
"You go find the patrol team. I'll deal with Yu Xiaogang."
After saying that to the other teachers, Director Su strode out of the academic affairs office and raced toward Dorm Seven.
The other teachers went out as Director Su had instructed.
Seeing this.
Gu Chen and Xiao Wu hurried toward Dorm Seven. The former was going to watch the show, while the latter saw Gu Chen as her mainstay and instinctively followed him.
Dorm Seven was nearby, so it didn't take them long to get back.
As soon as they returned, they saw Chang Wei-oh, no, Director Su-beating Yu Xiaogang, and it was a one-sided thrashing at that. Director Su's Martial Soul was a Battle Bear, and with Martial Soul Possession, he was practically a god of war. With one punch, he sent Yu Xiaogang flying backward out of Dorm Seven, leaving him dazed and disoriented.
But Yu Xiaogang still struggled to his feet. His eyes bloodshot, he panted like a bull as he glared at Director Su.
"Fart like thunder, Luo Sanpao, shake the heavens and split the earth..."
"Still trying to fart? Eat shit!!!"
Before Luo Sanpao could release the Soul Skill, Director Su's attack had already arrived. Disgust showed on his face. The other man's Soul Skill was truly revolting: if it hit him, he'd be someone who had been blasted by a fart, and if he dodged it, he'd still have to smell it. Either way, he'd suffer.
But this time he used a third method. Giving his opponent no chance to release the Soul Skill, he slammed a blow into Luo Sanpao.
Luo Sanpao took the heavy blow and was instantly sent flying backward.
And as the Martial Soul's owner, Yu Xiaogang suffered the same damage inflicted on Luo Sanpao, letting out scream after scream.
What followed.
Was a one-sided beating.
Wasn't Director Su also using this as a chance to vent his anger? For as many years as he had been at the academy, Yu Xiaogang had disgusted him for just as long. Now that he finally had a chance to grab Yu Xiaogang and give him a thorough beating, how could he not vent to his heart's content?
But he still knew his limits. At most, he inflicted superficial wounds.
Just as he was getting into the swing of the beating.
"S-stop! Stop it!!!"
A pig head came staggering out, shouting for him to stop.
"L-Little San, don't come over here!"
As Yu Xiaogang took the beating, he raised a hand to keep him away. His disciple was already in such a miserable state. If he got caught up in this and took a beating from Director Su too, what would Yu Xiaogang do if his foundation was damaged? How would he wash the stain from his own name in the future?
"Su Wen, come at me if you've got the guts! Don't lay a hand on my disciple!!!"
At that moment, Yu Xiaogang showed such backbone that even Director Su couldn't help admiring him for an instant. Of course, it lasted only that instant.
"I was coming for you in the first place!"
When he saw Tang San's miserable state and connected it to Yu Xiaogang's actions in Dorm Seven, he formed a rough idea of what had happened. It was nothing more than Tang San getting beaten up, Yu Xiaogang being unable to swallow his anger, and then directly summoning his Martial Soul and using a Soul Skill to blast every student in Dorm Seven with a fart.
Of course.
All of that rested on one premise: who had started the trouble?
There was no need to guess.
Before Tang San arrived, the work-study students in Dorm Seven had behaved themselves. How could things have escalated this far? Was the answer really so hard to guess?
At the thought, his anger flared. Neither master nor disciple was any good; both just loved looking for trouble.
So.
He gave Yu Xiaogang a smooth little combination of blows, beating him until he couldn't get up again.
"Teacher! Teacher-"
Tang San threw himself down beside Yu Xiaogang, tears streaming as he cried out.
But he had barely begun crying when the patrol team arrived. Most of its members were only Soul Grandmasters, with few Soul Elders among them, but their status meant that most people wouldn't dare act recklessly in front of them.
Captain Ye of the patrol team swept his gaze over Yu Xiaogang and the pig head crying on top of him, then stopped at the entrance to Dorm Seven. Looking at the work-study students sprawled all over the room and catching the faint stench drifting out, he hurriedly held his breath and retreated several steps before turning his gaze to Director Su.
"Director Su, sorry to trouble you, but please explain what happened."
"This..."
Director Su was in a difficult position. He didn't know the details very well and could only make a rough guess, so he couldn't readily answer.
Just as Director Su found himself in a bind, Gu Chen stepped forward.
"This is what happened..."
He recounted the events in detail, word by word. As he spoke, Xiao Wu, who stood beside him, also spoke up as a witness, saying, "It happened just as Gu Chen said." When he had finished explaining the cause of the incident and everything that followed.
Captain Ye's face turned completely cold.
"What a fine pair of master and disciple! You can't tell right from wrong, and you disregard the law! Men! Cuff them and take them away!"
The patrol team immediately seized them both. Tang San wanted to resist, but he was only a level ten prospective Soul Master who hadn't even absorbed a Soul Ring. Even if he had absorbed one, he would still have had to lie down obediently before seven or eight Soul Grandmasters.
How hateful! These damned bastards! The other side was clearly at fault, yet they're arresting me and Teacher! This is nothing short of officials and merchants colluding, jackals and wolves working together!
Every one of you has a way to die!!!
As Tang San was taken away, his heart seethed with resentment.
His gaze swept over everyone present, engraving their faces in his heart. Sooner or later, he would make them pay!!!
