"All right, all right, you're really united..." Yu Xiaogang was so angry he laughed. Even his own disciple Tang San had firmly taken the other side.

Anyone would have burst out laughing!

A guy bestie?

Did he even hear what he was saying?!

Yu Xiaogang had lived so long, yet this was the first time he had heard such a term. Honestly, even thinking with his toes, he could tell something was wrong. But what about his disciple Tang San?

Why did Tang San lose his head whenever feelings were involved?!

Actually, Tang San couldn't be blamed for this. After all, the martial arts world of his previous life had, in a sense, been a feudal era.

In those days, who had ever heard of a guy bestie?

Even if there had been one, he would have been called something else, like a lover or a paramour!

Something like this?

In those days, they would have been taken in and put in the bamboo-cage version of a Poké Ball!

"Good, very good. Actually, I said that on purpose just now. My goal was to test your unity."

Yu Xiaogang's eyes darted around. Since a hard approach hadn't worked, he would try a soft one. His wisdom as a Grandmaster was no empty reputation.

Tang San's eyes lit up at those words. So that was the truth. Everything was under his teacher's control.

So what he had done just now didn't really count as betraying his teacher after all.

Tang San secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Even Tianyu was a little surprised.

Well, well, well.

Gangzi really had gotten smarter. As expected of an expert at living off women!

His mind worked fast. Tianyu really had to learn from him.

Tianyu thought this from the bottom of his heart. Then Yu Xiaogang surveyed the eight of them one by one, a faint smile curling his lips, a book still in his hand.

"Next, I, Yu Xiaogang, will teach you Martial Soul Theory and give you guidance on Soul Fighting tactics."

"You will have a battle to assess your abilities, and I will record your combat characteristics to design a tactical system specifically for you."

Now that he had said this, Tianyu immediately realized what trick Yu Xiaogang wanted to play.

A duel or a gang beating?

"My hands are itching anyway. I can harvest another batch of Fortune Points!" Tianyu's lips curled upward. His Self-Created Soul Skill, Blazing Fist, which he had only comprehended not long ago, was already starving for action.

"Xiao San, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, Ning Rongrong, you will form a small team and face a powerful enemy together!"

"Who?" Dai Mubai asked at once. After all, with the five of them together, never mind a Soul Ancestor.

They might even be able to grind a weaker Soul King down!

"Tianyu!" At those words, Ning Rongrong's pupils trembled, and she was visibly reluctant. Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Oscar, on the other hand, were already beside themselves with joy.

They had never imagined that the legitimate excuse they had dreamed of, a fine chance to gang up on Tianyu, would be handed to them by the Grandmaster before them.

In an instant, their impression of Yu Xiaogang improved considerably. At least they didn't dislike him as much anymore.

"I object! Why should Brother Tianyu have to fight five people alone?"

"You're using your position to settle a personal grudge!" Xiao Wu immediately protested, even pulling Tang San into questioning him.

"Xiao Wu, this is just the teacher's practical combat training..." Tang San actually wanted to fight too, so he spoke somewhat timidly.

But the very next second, Xiao Wu stared hard at him with reddened eyes, looking aggrieved.

"Third Brother, how could you?"

"Brother Tianyu is my closest guy bestie!"

"Xiao Wu, I..."

Xiao Wu's cheeks flushed, and Tang San immediately ran around in circles with anxiety. Watching them, Yu Xiaogang felt as though his head was about to split open.

Yu Xiaogang: Wait, is this really my decisive, ruthless, pure and unsullied disciple Tang San?

Why is he so entangled in matters of the heart?!

Tianyu: Don't laugh.

When Liu Erlong comes, you'll be the same!

Neither master nor disciple will escape~

"Teacher, can I sit this one out?"

"Grandmaster, I don't want to fight either!"

Ning Rongrong's fair face turned pale, and she raised a delicate hand. To Oscar's shock, she suddenly spoke up too.

"No. Both of you must take part. This is only a test, so don't overthink it."

Yu Xiaogang smiled faintly. Just then, Tianyu looked at everyone and agreed to the test!

"In that case, Master, Xiao Wu and I want to fight too!" Little Kitty proposed.

"No need. Don't worry, just watch my performance!" Tianyu smiled calmly as he stroked Zhu Zhuqing's fair, soft cheek right in front of Dai Mubai.

Tianyu: So springy to the touch~

In an instant, Dai Mubai's gaze turned cold, and he clenched his fists.

"I don't care, I don't care! I just don't want to fight!"

Ning Rongrong had no master giving her orders, so the Little Demoness stood her ground and looked at Yu Xiaogang coldly.

"Grandmaster, five against one is far too unfair. What if I joined Tianyu's team and made it two against four?"

"With my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's support, that would be fair!" Ning Rongrong said firmly.

Little did she know, every word she said was like a basin of cold water poured mercilessly into Oscar's heart, his warm heart nearly freezing over.

"Rongrong... do you really not want to team up with me that much?" Oscar was a little heartbroken, and the sausage in his hand went limp~

"Grandmaster, I think Ning Rongrong is right." Zhao Wuji suddenly joined in the commotion as well.

Although Flender had explicitly told him not to interfere with Yu Xiaogang's teaching, he still couldn't help himself.

"This... all right, have it your way."

Yu Xiaogang felt somewhat helpless. He thought that with his disciple Tang San, a control-type Soul Master, on the team, four against two should still be quite easy.

Besides, Yu Xiaogang himself would lay out their tactics before the fight. The advantage was bound to be his this time!

With that thought, Yu Xiaogang nodded and agreed.

"Yay~" Ning Rongrong looked excited. In the past, she had thought support-type Soul Masters were weak.

They could only support Soul Masters with combat abilities from behind. Even her own father was the same, needing to rely on the strength of Grandpa Sword and Grandpa Bone.

But from today onward, Ning Rongrong suddenly understood the meaning of being a support-type Soul Master. If there was a powerful Soul Master she could trust,

always guarding her from the front while she provided support, the two of them fighting side by side, wasn't that a kind of courage too?

"I'll leave the support to you, Ning Rongrong." Tianyu smiled faintly and rubbed his fists, while the Scarlet Flame Lion on his shoulder couldn't even be bothered to yawn.

Now, apart from Titled Douluo and powerful Soul Beasts whose presence got the Scarlet Flame Lion a little excited and eager to fight, the rest weren't even worth mentioning!

"Mm, Tianyu, you can just call me Rongrong from now on."

"You don't have to be so formal!" Ning Rongrong said, mustering her courage. The moment the words left her mouth, her cheeks turned bright red.

Oscar: *?*

No!!!

Rongrong? Why are you blushing? Why are you blushing?

In an instant, Oscar felt icy cold all over, as if countless snowflakes were falling from the sky and drifting straight onto him, his tears falling softly too~
