Hearing that, Lin Hao could not help feeling black lines cover his forehead. This young lady really had inherited God King Tang's true teachings.
Every other word out of her mouth was, "You've already courted death."
But was God King Tang really stupid? It was simply that Yu Xiaogang had put all his talent points into hoodwinking people and moral blackmail.
On top of that, Tang Hao had done nothing and had not taught Tang San even the most basic knowledge of Soul Masters.
That was what had led to this situation.
And faced with Yu Xiaogang's spiel, Qian Renxue looked just as displeased as Tang Wutong.
Qian Renxue's face darkened as she said:
"What do you mean, Spirit Hall didn't believe your theory? It would've been a miracle if they had."
"You couldn't even copy our Spirit Hall's theories properly."
"What kind of bullshit Martial Soul Mimicry Theory is that?"
"If there's a most suitable Soul Ring type, why absorb one from a different category?"
"Are there no Plant-type Soul Beasts that are both tough and highly poisonous?"
"You just had to absorb an incompatible Mandala Snake Soul Ring."
"And this Tang Hao calls himself Clear Sky Douluo? He's nothing but an illiterate! He actually believed Yu Xiaogang and even caught a Mandala Snake for him. How laughable!"
Hearing her grandfather being insulted, Tang Wutong could not help glaring at Qian Renxue.
"Insult that buzz-cut Gangzi all you like, but why insult my grandfather?"
Qian Renxue refused to back down. "Your grandfather has a lump in his brain."
Tang Wutong was furious. "Hmph, then your mother has a lump in her brain too. I heard from Lin Hao that she even likes that buzz-cut Yu Xiaogang."
Hearing Tang Wutong drag that woman into it, Qian Renxue grew furious too.
She could insult that woman herself, but Tang Wutong could not.
Seeing the two about to start arguing, Lin Hao could only say helplessly:
"Give me, Gu Yuena, some face."
Black lines covered Gu Yuena's forehead too. If he wanted to stop a fight, why use her name?
Qian Renxue and Tang Wutong both glared at Lin Hao.
In their eyes, Lin Hao, who kept spouting nonsense, had problems too.
Facing the women's stares, however, Lin Hao remained perfectly calm.
What he wanted was to stir everyone's emotions. Otherwise, how could he earn Emotion Points?
He took a look. In less than a day, playing these animations had made his Emotion Points rise rapidly, and he now had 2,890.
If he had not spent 10 points to exchange for ten thousand yuan, he would have had 2,900 now.
With a little more effort, he would soon be able to exchange for that Refining Essence into Qi method that cost 3,600 Emotion Points.
He could not help growing excited.
Meanwhile, in the world of Douluo I.
Shrek Academy.
"I'm stupid?"
"Was I really hoodwinked?"
Tang Wutong, who appeared to be his future daughter, had angrily called him stupid, and Tang San could no longer keep his composure.
Indeed, when he had heard Yu Xiaogang's spiel back then, he had gotten a little carried away, thinking only of proving Yu Xiaogang's theory.
After all, he had taken the initiative to become Yu Xiaogang's disciple.
If he admitted that Yu Xiaogang was a fraud...
Wouldn't that mean he, Tang San, was a useless fool with no eye for people?
But thinking back on it now, he really had had more suitable Soul Rings he could have absorbed.
He could easily list two or three Plant-type Soul Beasts with both poisonous and tough attributes.
At that thought, he could not help looking at Yu Xiaogang too.
Had he really been hoodwinked senseless?
Seeing the somewhat doubtful look in Tang San's eyes, Yu Xiaogang's heart skipped a beat.
Tang San had grown up and was no longer as easy to fool as before.
It seemed his only choice was to play the victim.
At that thought, Yu Xiaogang put on a pained expression and said:
"Little San, so you could absorb this Soul Ring, your teacher nearly died from that Mandala Snake's poison. Are you really going to question my good intentions toward you?"
Hearing that, Tang San felt somewhat unable to bear it.
No matter what, his teacher had made sacrifices for him, and a four-hundred-year Soul Ring did not seem bad either.
Meanwhile, the sharp-tongued Ning Rongrong did not let Yu Xiaogang off at all.
"You did it for Third Brother?"
"Heavens, Grandmaster, it was clearly because you weren't strong enough, and you even burdened Third Brother with treating you."
Yu Xiaogang immediately grew displeased and said:
"Leaving the facts aside, didn't I, Yu Xiaogang, do my best?"
"In the end, didn't the Martial Soul Mimicry Theory succeed?"
Yu Xiaogang knew that Tang San would soon prove his theory right.
The animation continued playing.
After Tang San absorbed the Soul Ring, the Mandala Snake venom Yu Xiaogang had been poisoned with earlier took effect, leaving Tang San no choice but to save his teacher.
When Yu Xiaogang woke up, he could not wait to ask:
"Little San, what is your Soul Skill? How tough is it?"
Tang San said, "Teacher, my first Soul Skill is Entanglement. I can launch an attack anywhere within fifty meters."
Yu Xiaogang was delighted. "Entanglement, a characteristic of control-type Soul Masters, and it's tough enough too. If I'm not mistaken, it should also carry the Mandala Snake's poison."
Tang San corrected him. "You're right, Teacher, but it only carries the Mandala Snake's paralytic effect. The poison isn't lethal."
Yu Xiaogang said awkwardly, "That's still enough. With the combination of Entanglement and paralysis, unless an enemy has two more Soul Rings than you, breaking free of this Entanglement in one go would be absolutely impossible."
In the world of Douluo I.
Everyone at Shrek Academy was stunned as they watched the sky screen.
"What do you mean, unless they have two more Soul Rings, they can't break free in one go?"
"Grandmaster, isn't there something wrong with that claim?"
Dai Mubai could not help questioning him.
When Tang San had first arrived in Suotuo City, he had even fought him.
At the time, he had been level 37, while Tang San had been level 29.
He had only had one more ring.
His third Soul Skill, White Tiger Vajra Transformation, had easily broken through Blue Silver Entanglement.
Its toughness had been of little use, let alone that weak paralytic effect.
Hearing Dai Mubai's question, everyone turned to look at Yu Xiaogang.
Even Tang San did.
Damn it, theoretically, it should have inherited the Mandala Snake's terrifying, deadly poison.
Who knew it would only inherit the paralytic effect?
Yu Xiaogang's face flushed red too.
After all, he really could not explain that.
But with a sideways glance, he saw the image of himself collapsing from poison on the sky screen.
Wait, if I just pretend to faint, surely they won't be able to blame me anymore?
So he immediately pretended to faint from anger.
Seeing Yu Xiaogang roll his eyes back and collapse straight to the ground...
Tang San panicked too.
The feudal thinking of his former life still lingered in his mind.
If they angered Yu Xiaogang to death, wouldn't he become a great sinner who had angered his teacher to death?
He said helplessly, "Everyone, please stop upsetting Teacher."
Tang Hao could not help frowning. In his eyes, this Gangzi was simply bullying an honest person.
He was hoodwinking his son again.
In the modern world.
Tang Wutong was speechless too.
"Why does my dad seem more like the teacher than that buzz-cut Yu Xiaogang?"
"My dad even has to hunt down the Soul Beasts himself."
"And he has to wipe Yu Xiaogang's ass and cure his poison."
Qian Renxue could not help sneering:
"Is this Entanglement Soul Skill really that strong?"
"What do you mean, even someone with two more rings can't do anything about it?"
"I could've easily broken through this so-called Entanglement when I was level 20."
In her eyes, Yu Xiaogang really knew how to blow his own trumpet.
Lin Hao mocked:
"If he didn't make this Soul Skill sound a little stronger, wouldn't that prove Yu Xiaogang's own theory wrong?"
"Besides, isn't this entangling ability something Blue Silver Grass could possess on its own?"
"It's simply adding feet to a snake."
He wanted to keep mocking Gangzi.
But Gu Yuena blinked her large eyes and looked at Lin Hao.
"What does this bullet comment mean, [Tang San: First Soul Skill, Mother's Entanglement]?"
????
Hearing Gu Yuena say that with a perfectly straight face...
Lin Hao nearly laughed himself breathless.
