Tang San hadn't expected Dai Mubai to slap him.
Did this Dai Mubai really think he was somebody?
He had called him Boss Dai before because he wasn't strong enough yet, so he had given him face.
He hadn't expected him to take it seriously!
The blow drew the attention of the people around them. With so many eyes on him, the searing pain in Tang San's face sent him into a rage.
Dai Mubai already had a way to die!
"Dai Mubai, have you fucking lost your mind?!"
Tang San instinctively reached for the Dragon Whisker Needle, but his empty waist reminded him that his belt had been stolen.
His new Hidden Weapons weren't ready yet.
"Tang San, you beast! And to think I treated you like a brother!"
"You actually went and told Zhu Zhuqing I was seeing prostitutes?"
"You shameless bastard!"
"Believe it or not, I'll kill you!"
Hearing Dai Mubai threaten to kill him, Tang San flew into a rage.
Ever since he learned that his father was the Clear Sky Douluo, he had become utterly full of himself. Now, he didn't take Dai Mubai seriously at all.
"Dai Mubai, just who the hell do you think you are?"
"Why is a mere prince of the Star Luo Empire pretending to be a big-tailed wolf here?"
"Go ahead and try to kill me! See if my father wipes out the Star Luo Empire!"
Tang San's words left Dai Mubai somewhat doubtful.
But with anger clouding his head, he only wanted to give Tang San a thorough beating.
"Tang San, you beast! Let's fight!"
At that moment, Xiao Wu, Yu Xiaogang, and Zhao Wuji walked over.
"Fine, let's fight!"
Tang San felt a little unsure of himself. After all, he was only level 29 now and had just two Soul Skills.
Dai Mubai had three, and, most importantly, all of Tang San's Hidden Weapons had been stolen.
If he had the Dragon Whisker Needle, taking care of Dai Mubai would have been as easy as lifting a hand!
But he didn't want to lose face in front of Xiao Wu. If he backed down from Dai Mubai, Xiao Wu certainly wouldn't admire him as much in the future.
"Fine!"
"Tang San!"
"White Tiger Protection Barrier!"
"White Tiger Vajra Transformation!"
Dai Mubai activated his Soul Skills. He had fought Tang San before and knew what Tang San was capable of.
Without his third Soul Skill, he was no match for Tang San, so this time he used White Tiger Vajra Transformation right away.
After Martial Soul Possession, Dai Mubai's speed and strength surged in an instant.
"Blue Silver Entanglement!"
"Parasite!"
Tang San quickly unleashed his Soul Skills, hoping to contend with Dai Mubai for a while, but Dai Mubai now understood his Soul Skills well.
He tore Blue Silver Entanglement to shreds with brute force and quickly charged up to Tang San.
"Bang!"
Dai Mubai slammed a fist into Tang San's abdomen.
The heavy punch made Tang San spit blood on the spot.
He instinctively reached for the Dragon Whisker Needle, but he had nothing now. All he could do was swing his fists at Dai Mubai.
"Dai Mubai, you bastard!"
The two stood their ground and pounded each other wildly, turning a battle between Soul Masters into a slugging match.
Their eyes red, both of them vented their emotions like mad.
Dai Mubai was considerably stronger than Tang San, but even he couldn't withstand trading blows like this.
Soon, he too was spitting blood.
Watching from the shadows, Li Zhiyan felt a secret thrill. A scene of dogs biting dogs was truly a visual treat.
"Tang San, Dai Mubai, what are you doing? How did things get like this?!"
Zhao Wuji rushed forward and pulled them apart.
"Teacher, Tang San used a dirty trick to ambush me behind my back!"
Dai Mubai said angrily.
"He slandered me!"
"Dai Mubai, you bastard!"
Tang San's gaze was sinister, killing intent boiling inside him. Dai Mubai already had a way to die!
Once his Hidden Weapons were ready, he would find a chance to finish Dai Mubai off!
In the past, if Xiao Wu had seen Tang San injured, she would certainly have rushed over to check on him, her heart aching for him. But now she instinctively watched him coldly, without going over.
Subconsciously, she already regarded Tang San as a bad person who coveted her Soul Ring.
Back then, a bad person had stolen her mother's Soul Ring.
She hated people who wanted her Soul Ring most of all.
Yu Xiaogang stood with his hands behind his back, the level 29 man carrying himself like an expert.
"What happened here? I'm sure there must be a misunderstanding."
Dai Mubai wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and angrily recounted what had happened.
Yu Xiaogang frowned after hearing him out.
"How can you be sure Little San did it?"
Dai Mubai said with certainty, "No one but Tang San could use such a skillful Hidden Weapon technique!"
Falsely accused, Tang San felt aggrieved to the extreme.
"Dai Mubai, fuck your bullshit!"
"If I'd ambushed you, I would've blown your head off!"
Seeing the two poised to fight again, Yu Xiaogang felt this wouldn't do.
"Mubai, I believe Little San wouldn't do such a thing."
"He's my student. I know him, and he wouldn't do something like that."
"Someone must be framing Little San."
"You two should apologize to each other, shake hands, and make peace."
"In the future, your goal is to stand side by side and become champions of the continent-wide Soul Master Tournament."
"Don't fall out over such trivial matters."
Now that Yu Xiaogang had spoken, Tang San and Dai Mubai could only shake hands and make peace, though both looked as if they had eaten shit.
They both knew Yu Xiaogang's standing in Shrek Academy.
"All right, let's put this matter behind us."
"Everyone, go back."
"We still have to fight again tomorrow."
Yu Xiaogang felt he had to find a way to truly resolve the conflict between the two.
He wanted the students of Shrek Academy to unite and bring back good news from the Soul Master Tournament. Then, one day, the name Yu Xiaogang would shake the whole of Spirit Hall!
Tang San clenched his fists, turned, and left.
"Grandmaster, we'd like to go out for a stroll."
"All right, go ahead. Be careful."
Dai Mubai led Oscar and Ma Hongjun in another direction. Since they had spent more time with Dai Mubai,
Oscar and Ma Hongjun now sided more with him.
"Damn it! That damned Tang San! Sooner or later, I'll kill him with my own hands!"
As they walked, Dai Mubai clenched his fists and spoke with killing intent.
"Boss Dai, why don't you just let it go?"
Oscar said hesitantly.
"I heard Third Brother's father is the Clear Sky Douluo. If you really killed him, his father would go mad."
Hearing the Clear Sky Douluo's name, Dai Mubai, who had calmed down a little, felt a chill under his feet. He really couldn't afford to provoke him.
Was he really going to have to swallow this bitter grievance?
It seemed he could only find a chance to strike Tang San from the shadows. That way, even if Tang San died, the Clear Sky Douluo wouldn't trace it back to him.
In the shadows, Li Zhiyan quietly followed the three of them.
There were many Soul Masters in Suotuo City, so he wasn't worried about being noticed at all. Besides, neither Zhao Wuji nor Flender was nearby.
He could act without worry.
If they're going to fight among themselves, this isn't enough.
Let me add some fuel to the fire.
Li Zhiyan sneered and took a Dragon Whisker Needle from his personal space.
This vicious Hidden Weapon.
Let's give Dai Mubai a taste of it.
