Douluo Continent: Ning Rongrong? Even a dog wouldn't chase her.

He was in a terrible mood. This one move alone showed the difference between the two. As things stand, the situation on the field is basically one of overwhelming dominance.

It's obvious that if Gu Yi wanted to, he would basically be the one toying with Tang San.

But Tang San had no intention of giving up. Although he was missing support, it didn't matter much to him. To him, it was the same whether he had support or not.

"The first soul skill, blue and silver entanglement!"

Tang San's current thoughts are very simple: since...

If you can't restrict his movements, then use your soul skills to mislead him, and then attack Gu Yi's blind spot.

He can't keep using his third soul skill indefinitely. As long as he doesn't know he's launched an attack, things will be easier.

However, this would mean that those mechanical hidden weapons could not be used. Although they were highly lethal, their attacks were too obvious and Gu Yi could easily dodge them.

'Perfect timing! The dragon whisker needles I bought from the dean can finally come in handy.'

As he thought about it, Tang San released his soul skill, and behind him, the Blue Silver Grass surged towards Gu Yi like a tide.

"Actually, I don't want to waste too much time with you, let's just end it here."

Gu Yi stood calmly in place and said softly.

As he spoke, his gaze locked onto Tang San, who was unleashing his soul skill, and he snapped his fingers again.

"Painted bones produce flowers."

As soon as he finished speaking, a strong sense of crisis instantly arose in Tang San's heart.

One after another, sharp, giant bone spikes emerged from Tang San's feet, just like the ones Dai Mubai had encountered earlier.

Tang San's soul skill was interrupted, and due to the threat of the bone spikes, he had no choice but to keep using Ghost Shadow Steps to dodge.

Although he was fast, the bone spikes were even faster in pursuit!

Gu Yi's fourth soul skill is a locking skill. No matter how Tang San dodges, he still cannot get rid of it.

He could only watch helplessly as the bone spikes drew closer and closer to him, and then the bone dragon appeared, its ferocious maw snapping at him!

"Enough! Let's end it here!"

Seeing that Tang San had nowhere to avoid it, Yu Xiaogang finally spoke up. At that moment, the bone dragon changed direction again and smashed the wall next to it.

"Hoo~ho~ho~"

Tang San leaned against the wall, his breathing becoming rapid. Just now, when Gu Yi locked onto him with that soul skill, he felt a wave of powerlessness.

There was no way to escape. Once locked on by that soul skill, he could only take the hit head-on. But how could a control-type Soul Master withstand that attack?

We lost, we lost badly!

Despite the teacher's insistence on victory and despite using Tang Clan's secret techniques and hidden weapons, they still suffered a crushing defeat.

Tang San felt somewhat frustrated. He took a deep look at Gu Yi and sighed helplessly.

"Alright! Everyone, come and assemble!" Yu Xiaogang gave another order.

Soon, everyone lined up in a neat row again, waiting for Yu Xiaogang to speak.

"Is this what they call a monster genius Soul Master? A whole group of them isn't even enough to warm up Gu Yi!"

"Dai Mubai, you lost your composure from the very beginning of the battle. Does Gu Yi look that fierce and menacing? Why are you so afraid of him?"

"Ma Hongjun, Oscar, knowing that Gu Yi has a teleportation-type soul skill, why didn't you eat the mushroom sausage from the beginning and use high-speed movement to break free from the lock? Why did you stupidly stand there and wait to die?"

"Ning Rongrong, your problem is even bigger. As a support-type Soul Master, you didn't even react when an enemy Soul Master got close. If this were a battlefield, you would already be dead!"

"Tang San! Your problem is the biggest. As a control-type Soul Master, what you need most is the insight and judgment to see the whole scene. You have already watched Gu Yi's two battles, don't you know what he will do next?"

"Because of your mistake, Ning Rongrong has been killed in action!"

"As a control-type Soul Master, you didn't even have a chance to control Gu Yi at the beginning. Instead, you were controlled by others."

"You guys really have disappointed me!"

"I've prepared a huge rock for you at the academy gate; it's my punishment for you. Now, all of you, go and wait at the academy gate!"

"Gu Yi will stay."

"Yes."

Upon hearing that there would be a punishment, everyone's expressions immediately darkened, but they still obediently went out, except for Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing.

Yu Xiaogang glanced at the two of them, then slowly walked up to Gu Yi and pulled him aside.

"Gu Yi, I have a question for you."

"Do you want to become my disciple?"

Chapter 44 Short-sighted People

???

Does this mean they've targeted me?

Gu Yi was somewhat surprised. He thought Yu Xiaogang wanted to talk to him about something, but it turned out he wanted to recruit him.

"No," Gu Yi replied decisively.

He didn't have a good impression of Yu Xiaogang. In the original work, Yu Xiaogang was a clown and a hypocrite.

He did nothing in his life but uttered the statement, "There are no useless martial souls, only useless soul masters."

Even though he himself is a prime example of a useless Soul Master, he still acts arrogant, conceited, and aloof.

The sight of it made Gu Yi, from his past life, feel nauseous.

"Don't want it?" Yu Xiaogang frowned, his expression turning somewhat unpleasant.

"Don't you know my name?"

"I was the brains of the Golden Iron Triangle back then, and I devoted myself to the study of martial spirits for more than ten years!"

"If you become my disciple, I will share all the knowledge and wealth I have accumulated in my life with you."

Do you know how many people dream of this?

Yu Xiaogang refused to give up and continued to persuade him, unwilling to give up.

“I don’t need it,” Gu Yi replied calmly and without hesitation.

Gu Yi already knew all about his so-called knowledge and wealth, so why should he become his disciple and be bound by him?

"No need?" Yu Xiaogang asked in surprise, then let out a cold laugh.

"Ha! You have no idea what the knowledge in my mind truly represents!"

"Forget it, I don't need to waste my breath on such a short-sighted person."

After saying that, he turned around and went back to the platform, no longer looking at Gu Yi.

Gu Yi's answer and reaction just now made him very unhappy!

"You two, now go to the academy gate and gather there to be punished along with the others."

Yu Xiaogang glanced at Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu and spoke.

"Why? We didn't do anything wrong, why should we be punished?" Xiao Wu retorted, puzzled.

"They are all your classmates, and they will be your partners in the future. Can you bear to watch them be punished while you take a break?" Yu Xiaogang asked coldly.

"Then why doesn't Gu Yi want to go?" Xiao Wu frowned and asked, pointing to Gu Yi standing to the side.

"Him? I don't need him," Yu Xiaogang replied dismissively.

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's strange tone, Zhu Zhuqing's face turned cold, and she replied, "Then I don't need it either."

"Oh? Is that so?" Yu Xiaogang glanced at her, then looked away and said, "Then you shouldn't go either."

"Xiao Wu, aren't you going?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu felt conflicted. She felt that the atmosphere in the room was a bit strange, and suddenly all the pressure was on her.

"I...I think I won't go either. I won't go see them."

Xiao Wu lowered her head, speaking while secretly observing the expression on Yu Xiaogang's face.

"Hmph! Then none of you should go!" Yu Xiaogang snorted coldly, strode off the platform, and quickly walked towards the door.

What did he just say to you?

As Zhu Zhuqing watched Yu Xiaogang's retreating figure, she softly asked Gu Yi a question.

"It's nothing, he just asked if I wanted to become his disciple, and I refused," Gu Yi replied.

Now, he increasingly feels

I'm sure my choice was right; this person is pitifully petty.

"You refused? Grandmaster is very powerful, he knows a lot about martial spirits, how could you refuse?"

Suddenly, Xiao Wu came over from the side and asked in surprise.

"Because I don't need it," Gu Yi explained again with a smile.

"No need?" Xiao Wu repeated Gu Yi's words, her gaze towards him becoming somewhat strange.

She had always felt that there was something wrong with Gu Yi. He was clearly just a human, but his cultivation speed was so much faster than hers. Moreover, she had smelled a familiar scent on Gu Yi before.

Is it...

Xiao Wu had a bold idea in her mind, but at this moment she didn't know how to ask it.

Although there are many suspicious points about Gu Yi, Xiao Wu will not act rashly before she is completely certain.

If she guesses wrong in the end, she's not sure what the outcome will be.

"So what do we do now? It seems like we're being targeted," Zhu Zhuqing asked softly.

She understood her current situation, but she didn't care. As long as she could be with Gu Yi, she had no complaints.

"It doesn't matter. If he wants to target us, it won't be that easy. His actions will only cause dissatisfaction among others."

“Let’s just focus on our own things. Go find Teacher Zhao and we can continue our gravity training. That’s much more meaningful than his running.”

Gu Yi replied softly.
