Douluo: Tara's Mask, the Ultimate Darkness!

Chapter 245 immediately puts the toad at level three difficulty!
Tang San's head was buzzing. Hadn't he already repaid his teacher's kindness?

He personally provided her with pills, money, and hidden weapons.

Is there anything stronger than my hidden weapon? I've already given you my heart and soul, what more do you want from me?
I, Tang San, have already poured my heart and soul into my teacher!
He couldn't say these words aloud, but in his heart, he already harbored some resentment towards himself as a teacher...

My teacher is a bit useless, yet he's obsessed with saving face. He not only messed things up for me, but he also has to pretend to be something he's not!
Oh, teacher, are you really that capable?
How come I've learned almost nothing over the years?

Yu Xiaogang was unaware that Toad Tang San had already become suspicious of him, but he hadn't revealed it because of his elderly mother.

"Mother, is it really going to be useful for you to make me become this good-for-nothing's apprentice?"

Tang San, the toad, wondered to himself. He didn't know that his mother had only tricked him and hadn't done anything else.

Right now, Ah Jing is living a carefree life in the Killing City. As for this son? He's completely forgotten about him. He probably doesn't even remember having a toad child all these years ago.

Inside the City of Slaughter, Ah Jing, nestled in a man's arms, sneezed: "Who's talking about me?"

"Never mind, deacon. I'll be under your care from now on."

……

Upon hearing the word "god," Yu Xiaogang's tearful eyes involuntarily turned towards him.

"The mistress, the mistress, I..."

His eyes were filled with a thirst for power; he had already experienced the joy of level 30 and didn't want to stay at level 29 anymore.

Level 30! Level 30! I, Yu Xiaogang, will definitely break through to level 30.

Why was I demoted? Was it because I was too weak?
After calming down, Yu Xiaogang remembered that he had clearly broken through level 30, so why did he suddenly return to level 29?
"Don't worry, teacher. If I really do obtain that divine inheritance, I will definitely ask you what happened."

Seeing Yu Xiaogang's state, Toad Tang San feigned comfort, thinking, "We still need your teacher right now, so just bear with it..."

Teacher, oh teacher, my things, Tang San's, aren't so easy to take.

Tang San, the toad, sneered inwardly.

Yu Xiaogang was unaware that his good disciple had already become disloyal.

Having been tricked so many times, Toad Tang San had long seen through it all, but he hadn't yet figured out his mother's intentions, which was why he was playing along with Yu Xiaogang for the time being.

If I were to inherit a divine position, hehehe, I am Tang San, you are my teacher, but I am the inheritor of a divine position, what are you!
I, Tang San, have been kind enough to receive even a drop of kindness? Hah, you've already chosen your own path to death.

Besides, you, Little Yu Gang, have already repaid the debt of gratitude you owe me.

Tang San, the toad, felt no burden at all.

Upon receiving Tang San's reply, Yu Xiaogang felt relieved. "As expected of my disciple, he truly respects his teacher."

Mistress, having you is my blessing!

"Little San, focus on preparing for the competition. Don't worry about me."

After receiving the satisfactory words, Yu Xiaogang felt much more relaxed and no longer felt as if he had lost all will to live.

He firmly believed that God could solve his problems!

Time returns to the present.

Beside the gloomy little prisoner were Sheryl and Flander.

The three of them led a group of Shrek students into the venue. The Heaven Dou Team didn't need to participate in these things; they were still cultivating and didn't even bother to attend the opening ceremony.

They won't even come to the later major competitions.

“Mistress, do you see this? This is your stage. You will shine here.”

Sitting down in his seat, Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San, the toad beside him, and said excitedly.

Toad Tang San nodded. He was incredibly excited to be here in such a prosperous era.

Before they knew it, everyone had arrived. The three teams from the original story—Ice, Fire, and Wind—were gone, but the Elephant Armor Sect and Blue Lightning teams were still there. There was a new team, the Shadow Palace, but everything else was the same, with not many changes.

"Xueya, you go draw lots later."

Yu Xiaogang spoke coldly, her tone devoid of any gentleness.

Flander was slightly taken aback when he heard the voice, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he was overjoyed. This was for the best. As long as Ya Mei gave up, it would be his chance.

"Alright, Little Gang, I'll draw a good opponent for you later, let's get off to a good start."

Xueya has already found out the situation. Apart from the Shadow Palace team, which is a bit difficult, the others are no problem at all as long as Xiao San performs well.

They're all Soul Masters, plus one Soul Sect Master, so there shouldn't be a big problem.

With good teamwork, they could even take on a powerful defensive sect like the Elephant Armor Sect. Besides, Xiao San's poison was impossible to defend against.

Once it gets in your mouth, it's not just disgusting, it's disgusting, it's disgusting...

Xueya knew that as long as Toad Tang San was there, they would be invincible. It was a bit like killing a thousand enemies while losing eight hundred of your own, but that didn't matter, as long as they won.

Only by winning can one have a chance to compete for the final divine throne inheritance. If things go well, obtaining a soul bone would also be a good thing.

Below, dancers from the Heavenly Dou Royal Family displayed their long, slender legs, performing a dance for the opening ceremony.

The crowd cheered as they watched the dazzling dancers below, but the Shrek sisters looked on with disdain.

"Hmph, I think I could dance better than them!"

Dai Mubai looked at Yu Xiaogang, snorted coldly, and slowly stood up to perform a dance.

vomit!
"Boss Dai, you..."

"nausea!"

"Pah, this is an eyesore, what a piece of crap."

"Hey, you in front, get out of my way, you're blocking my view."

"Disgusting, absolutely disgusting. Where did the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy get such a disgusting guy?"

"..."

Dai Mubai's dance moves sent chills down everyone's spine. Yu Xiaogang never expected this guy to be so bold. If you want to dance, then go back and dance for me secretly.

Really are!
On the other side, a pair of eyes looked over with a smile, licking their lips: "Indeed, the sober ones are more interesting than the unconscious ones."

……

After the dancers finished, Emperor Xueye spoke, then Ning Fengzhi spoke, and finally it was time to draw lots.

Xueya glanced at Yu Xiaogang, then walked towards where Emperor Xueye was.

A short while later, Xueya returned dejectedly.

"What happened, Xueya? Did you draw a bad one?"

Yu Xiaogang's heart jumped into her throat as she looked at Xueya's pale face, and she nervously spoke.

"Little Gang, you...you all see."

Xueya handed the slip of paper she had drawn to Yu Xiaogang.

Yu Xiaogang quickly snatched it and immediately started reading. There weren't many words on it, but only three words stood out brightly in Yu Xiaogang's eyes.

The note fell uncontrollably, and Yu Xiaogang's expression immediately changed. He then sighed, "Sigh~"
Flander immediately picked it up, and his expression changed instantly.

Shadow Palace!
It's the Shadow Palace!
