Yu Xiaogang Appears, Taking Him as a Master?
Time flowed like water, slipping swiftly through their tightly clasped fingers.
The Shrek group had spent an entire morning traveling to the Star Dou Great Forest, but this time, on their return to the academy...
With Oscar's third Soul Skill, it took them only one hour to finally reach Shrek Academy!
At the sight of the dilapidated wooden sign, everyone let out a deep sigh, their hearts finally at ease.
Spending the past few days and nights in the Star Dou Great Forest had left everyone pent up. Only Tianyu had enjoyed himself, getting to spray wildly~
"Fatty, you can't be so reckless the next time you go out. Otherwise, you won't just be mediocre; you'll become an idiot."
On the path, Zhao Wuji looked at Ma Hongjun rather helplessly as he spoke. Though he had put the big bump on the boy's head himself, he had also gone down and saved his life.
"I know, Teacher Zhao." Ma Hongjun scratched his head. How could he spare any thought for what had happened before? There was nothing but a mass of Evil Fire inside him now, and he could barely get rid of it.
All he could think about was going to the back alleys that night to find Cuihua or Ruyan and let loose. If Boss Dai could be kind enough to accompany him for some higher-grade goods, that would be even better.
Unfortunately, in front of Zhu Zhuqing, Dai Mubai wanted only to present himself as pure-hearted and upright, hoping to win back his fiancée's heart.
How could he have time to accompany Ma Hongjun and play Seven-spotted Ladybugs? Even Oscar, who had occasionally accompanied him before, no longer went.
One after another, they had all found someone to secretly love. In the end, he was the only bad guy left among their three scoundrels.
Well~ Tonight I'll squeeze some Gold Soul Coins out of Teacher and really let loose. This Evil Fire inside me is killing me!
But just as Ma Hongjun was thinking to himself, Tang San's expression suddenly changed beside him. His eyes lit up, and he cried out.
"Teacher?"
At those words, the others, including Tianyu, also widened their eyes and looked at the figure standing with Flender not far away. What did he look like, and just who was this exalted person?
"Tang San's teacher? That Grandmaster who told Tang San to have his plant Martial Soul absorb a spider Soul Beast's Soul Ring?"
"So it really is..." Zhao Wuji smacked his lips. In truth, there was something on his mind that he didn't know whether he should say.
Especially after hearing Tang San say his teacher was a level 29 Soul Grandmaster, Zhao Wuji, a dignified Soul Saint, had nearly failed to hold back his laughter.
And he still had the nerve to call himself a theory Grandmaster...
He had no practical experience at all. He might even have seen fewer Soul Beasts in person than Zhao Wuji!
That was indeed the case. In the original story, Yu Xiaogang didn't even know that a Soul Master would suffer a mental shock when absorbing a Ten Thousand Year Soul Ring.
It was Ning Rongrong who brought it up later. If Tang San hadn't had exceptionally great fortune and so many cheats...
After absorbing the Longing Autumn Dew and breaking through to the Mustard Seed Realm of the Purple Demon Eye, Tang San had gained powerful spiritual power, which had only just allowed him to survive the mental sweep.
Otherwise, Tang San wouldn't even have known how he died!
The next moment, Tang San used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and hurried over to Yu Xiaogang, his face full of excitement.
It was worth mentioning that when Tang San had used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track before, Tianyu had been completely baffled, not knowing how to counter it.
But now that he had some foundation of his own, seeing through the rhythm of Tang San's steps was no longer difficult!
"Xiao San, eh? Have you broken through to Soul Elder?" Although Yu Xiaogang couldn't tell Tang San's Soul Power Level, he made a guess based on his understanding of his disciple.
"That's right, Teacher. Your deduction was correct."
"Not long ago, following your instructions, I absorbed the Soul Ring of a highly venomous spider over 1,000 years old and successfully broke through to become a level 31 Soul Elder."
"Good. My disciple, Yu Xiaogang's disciple, truly has powerful talent," Yu Xiaogang said, unstinting in his praise. Then his expression instantly changed, and he took on the air of a strict teacher:
"But... you must not grow arrogant!"
"Your disciple will heed your teachings." Tang San nodded. Sure enough, only with his teacher beside him was he the most powerful genius in his teacher's eyes.
After being so thoroughly crushed by Tianyu on a whole different level day after day, this was the first time Tang San had felt so reassured and relieved.
What he hadn't expected, however, was that when Tianyu and the others approached, his dear teacher's eyes suddenly lit up, and his gaze was no longer on Tang San.
Seeing this, Tang San scratched his head, a little bewildered.
Little did he know that the moment Tianyu appeared, Yu Xiaogang had already begun trembling with excitement, his eyes full of longing to perfect his theories.
He was especially curious about the secret behind Tianyu absorbing Soul Rings beyond his level!
Besides that, Tianyu actually had an External Martial Soul, just like him. If he could take Tianyu as his disciple...
In the near future, the two disciples under Yu Xiaogang's name, one with Twin Martial Souls and the other with an External Martial Soul, would both become Titled Douluo.
They would surely become existences above every Soul Master on the continent. Yu Xiaogang was utterly confident of this, because they would have his guidance in all of it.
By then, his father would no longer be so disappointed in him. He might even be able to return to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and show those who looked down on him.
And even Spirit Hall...
At the thought, Yu Xiaogang's eyes reddened slightly, and he began panting like a bull, his gaze full of longing.
"Old Zhao, Little Monsters, thanks for your hard work!"
"This is Yu Xiaogang, a very famous Grandmaster of Martial Soul Theory. From now on, he'll be teaching you here at Shrek Academy."
Flender chuckled. He had some confidence in his good brother, the Horn of Wisdom.
Everyone looked up, their hearts full of doubt. After all, Yu Xiaogang looked completely ordinary, with his hair cropped short.
Put him in a crowd, and he was just a strange middle-aged man with his hands behind his back and eyes full of wisdom!
Tianyu felt somewhat helpless about this. All he wanted to think about was how to rake in a large number of Fortune Points next, and he couldn't be bothered with Yu Xiaogang.
It was worth mentioning that Tianyu had sent his third Contract Beast, Bi Ji, to the ocean region specifically to hunt whale-type Soul Beasts with highly viscous Whale Rubber for him.
For no other reason than to obtain thousand-year or even ten-thousand-year Whale Rubber. Bi Ji was quite dedicated to the task.
At the time, her face had flushed red. After all, it was all for her master's happiness and her own pleasure~
Bi Ji: "Whale Rubber tablets: good for him, good for me too~"
Beast God Di Tian: "?"
But while Tianyu couldn't be bothered with him, Yu Xiaogang had already walked up to him, his face full of excitement, right in front of everyone, especially Tang San.
"Little Monster, your name is Tianyu, right?"
"Uh, that's right. What can I do for you?" Tianyu frowned, a sense of foreboding rising in him.
Once he had confirmed who Tianyu was, Yu Xiaogang dropped the act. He smiled confidently, fixed his wise gaze on Tianyu, and asked with his hands behind his back, chest out and head held high:
"Would you be interested in becoming my disciple, Yu Xiaogang's disciple?"
Tianyu: "???"
The heavens have been turned upside down!
You're over fifty and haven't even reached level 29, and you want me, a level 35, to take you as my master?!
Eat shit, you~
