Douluo Continent: Disciple Tang San, righteous yet evil

Chapter 70 Qin Ming betrays his own side, Lin Mu shows no mercy

Seeing that Yu Tianheng didn't reply for a long time, Yu Xiaogang assumed he was too excited, so he patted him on the shoulder and said confidently:

"Tianheng, I plan to personally train the Royal Fighting Team. Under my guidance, you can become stronger, and I may even enable you to master the Martial Soul Fusion Technique!"

After speaking, he put his hands behind his back, his eyes shining brightly, as if he could already see the adoring looks in the eyes of these Royal Fighting Team members.

Martial soul fusion skills!

This is a skill that countless Soul Masters dream of; no one can resist its allure.

However, these people were not fooled by his rhetoric. Instead, they looked at him strangely, their eyes filled with scrutiny and doubt.

Although this person is Yu Tianheng's uncle, he doesn't seem to have anything special about him, and he's nowhere near as good as Teacher Lin Mu.

Flander and Zhao Wuji exchanged a glance, completely unprepared for Yu Xiaogang's words.

It's only our first meeting, yet they already want to seize control of the Royal Fighting Team. Isn't that a bit too blatant?

Just then, Yu Feng walked up to Yu Tianheng, looked Yu Xiaogang up and down, and said with a hint of mockery, "Since you want to teach us how to train, then may I ask what level of soul power you have?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang's face instantly stiffened. His soul power level was undoubtedly his Achilles' heel, so he could only feign composure and say:
"Guiding cultivation relies on a deep understanding of the martial spirit, not on the level of soul power. As a master of martial spirit theory, no one understands martial spirit theory better than me."

Upon hearing this, Yu Feng and the others were completely speechless. They were clearly embarrassed to say it because their soul power level was too low, yet they made it sound so nice.

Seeing this, Yu Tianheng quickly explained, "Although my uncle's soul power is not high, he is indeed a very famous theoretical master."

"With your abilities, Uncle is perfectly capable of serving as the team leader's assistant, just like Teacher Qin. This would surely be a great help to the team."

He put it rather conservatively: on the surface, he was the team leader's assistant, but in reality, he just handled some miscellaneous tasks.

But in his view, being able to do odd jobs for Teacher Sui Linmu was already a very rare opportunity. If he could get a few pills, he would have hit the jackpot.

However, Yu Xiaogang's ambitions go far beyond that.

He straightened his face and said in an unquestionable tone, "Tianheng, I need absolute authority. Only in this way can we guarantee that your strength will improve significantly. As the captain, you will definitely support your uncle, right?"

Yu Tianheng opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word.

What could he say? Could he tell his uncle directly that he himself was in dire straits and could be stripped of his captaincy at any moment?

After this period of training, his position as captain has long been nominal, and he is no longer the core of the team.

On the surface, he was still the captain, but in reality, he could only be considered a main attacker.

Just as Yu Tianheng was about to explain, a majestic voice, containing invisible soul power fluctuations, came from somewhere.

"Gangzi, I never expected you would try to take my place."

Upon hearing that incredibly familiar voice, Yu Xiaogang and Flander trembled with fear, their minds going completely blank.

Only then did they realize what was happening.

The leader of the Royal Fighting Team is Lin Mu, no wonder Qin Ming respects him so much, it all makes sense now.

With a powerful aura enveloping the entire lounge, Lin Mu suddenly appeared in front of Yu Xiaogang, moving so fast that even Flander and Zhao Wuji didn't have time to react.

Under the influence of this aura, everyone's breathing suddenly stopped, their legs trembled uncontrollably, and those with lower cultivation levels knelt down directly.

Those whose soul power was below level 30 all knelt on the ground, with Yu Xiaogang almost lying on the floor.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, this posture, like that of a dead dog, made him feel extremely humiliated.

Ignoring everyone else, Lin Mu looked down at Yu Xiaogang and said very understandingly, "Gangzi, since you want the team leader position, how about I give you a chance to challenge me?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang was nearly scared to death.

Forget about the challenge, the suffocating pressure alone was almost killing him.

At this moment, Flander, suppressing his fear, quickly stepped forward, bowed deeply to Lin Mu, and said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, this is all a misunderstanding. We really didn't know. You are the leader of the Royal Fighting Team. Xiao Gang did not mean to offend you. We will leave now!"

"Since we're already here, why rush to leave?"

Lin Mu's tone was unequivocal; since these guys had come to him of their own accord, there was no reason to let them go so easily.

Upon hearing this, Flander was startled and could only cast a pleading look at Qin Ming behind him.

Seeing this, Qin Ming quickly walked up to Lin Mu, looking somewhat puzzled and anxious, and said, "Teacher Lin Mu, is there some misunderstanding? Dean Flander and the others are me."

Before he could finish speaking, Lin Mu interrupted him.

"From this moment on, you are hereby unilaterally dismissed from your position as team leader assistant, and you have no further connection with the Royal Fighting Team."

Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned.

Qin Ming stood there completely stunned, his face filled with disbelief and bewilderment, never expecting this day to come.

Yu Tianheng, Dugu Yan and the others also couldn't believe it. Although they had completely accepted Lin Mu as their team leader, Qin Ming was, after all, their former team leader, and they had spent much more time together with him than Lin Mu.

Moreover, Qin Ming volunteered to serve as the team leader's assistant and made arrangements for all the competition matters in advance, which can be said to be his dedication and responsibility.

Unexpectedly, Lin Mu showed no mercy.

Flander's pupils dilated in shock. Could it be that he had implicated Qin Ming, causing him to lose such a good job?

Several seconds passed before Qin Ming came to his senses and asked with a hint of confusion, "Teacher Lin Mu, why is this?"

Seeing his expression, Lin Mu remained unmoved.

"There's only one reason."

"He betrayed his own side, neglected his duties, and delayed the team's training."

"Is this reason enough?"

Upon hearing this explanation, Qin Ming was struck dumb and suddenly realized what was happening.

He left the team without permission yesterday and did not return overnight. He also failed to report the team competition situation to Lin Mu in a timely manner, which was indeed a dereliction of duty on his part.

But to kick him out of the team just because of one oversight is a bit too unreasonable.

Teacher Lin Mu

Seeing Qin Ming's distraught state, Yu Tianheng and Dugu Yan tried to help persuade him, but Lin Mu interrupted them.

"Anyone who has objections can leave with him."

Upon hearing this, the two immediately swallowed back the words they were about to say. They didn't want to leave the Royal Fighting Team. Their recent improvement in strength was almost equivalent to one or two years of cultivation.

Compared to Lin Mu's training results, Qin Ming's was rather poor, almost like a babysitter's training, with minimal actual effect.

Flander, not wanting Qin Ming to lose his job because of this, hurriedly said, "This is our fault, it has nothing to do with Qin Ming. We are willing to compensate you, no matter how much money you want."

Although he was out of money, he was willing to risk robbing a few more nobles for the sake of his former best students.

"Do you even have the right to speak here?" Lin Mu said coldly.

He had considered keeping Qin Ming, but he couldn't, since Shrek Academy was Qin Ming's top priority.

Rather than waiting to be betrayed, it's better to kick them out of the Royal Fighting Team directly.

Seeing that Lin Mu was leaving no room for maneuver, Flander felt guilty and looked at Yu Xiaogang lying on the ground, a hint of resentment flashing in his eyes.
