Douluo Continent: Become stronger by stealing Tang San's luck

"Dean, what's wrong...?"

One of the instructors, looking utterly bewildered, couldn't help but ask.

"What, everyone's surprised?"

Yan Shaozhe still wore a smile, his gaze sweeping over everyone, his eyes revealing a profound meaning that was hard to fathom.

"This...this is quite unexpected, Dean!"

Another student stammered, his face filled with confusion and bewilderment.

They looked at each other, their eyes filled with deep confusion and shock.

The whole scene descended into chaos and confusion.

One mentor spoke up directly:

"Dean, Tang Lan has an improper conduct. His behavior is frivolous and he is constantly involved in scandals."

"He often flirted with many female students in the academy, behaving ambiguously and showing no sign of dignity or composure."

"If Xiao Tao follows her, it will be extremely detrimental to her future development! Not to mention that it will affect Xiao Tao's cultivation state of mind, the rumors and gossip from the outside world alone will be enough to put Xiao Tao under tremendous pressure."

"Those rumors and gossip will be like invisible shackles, tightly binding Xiaotao's steps forward."

"Xiao Tao has exceptional talent and excellent physique, giving her a unique advantage in the path of cultivation."

"Her future should have been bright, with unlimited potential. How can she ruin her future because of something like this!"

"This is undoubtedly like throwing a bright pearl into a muddy swamp."

"That's right, Dean. Tang Lan has several women around him now. He's juggling many women, and his love life is a complete mess."

"If Xiao Tao goes with him, she will definitely be deeply entangled in emotional turmoil and unable to extricate herself."

"This will not only distract Xiao Tao, preventing her from fully devoting herself to cultivation, but may also cause a lot of unnecessary disputes and troubles."

"Xiao Tao should be single-mindedly pursuing higher levels of martial arts and realizing her own value in life. She must not get caught up in such a complicated and chaotic emotional quagmire because of Tang Lan, thereby losing her way and wasting her talent, Dean!"

As Yan Shaozhe listened to his mentors' urgent words, the smile on his face faded slightly, and his gaze became deep.

He slowly began to speak: "Please don't be hasty, everyone. This matter may not be as simple as you think."

"Dean, isn't this obvious? Anyone with eyes can see the problem!" one of the instructors said emotionally.

Yan Shaozhe waved his hand and said, "Although Tang Lan's style is somewhat unconventional, his talent and potential are undeniable. Perhaps he can provide Xiao Tao with some unexpected help."

"Dean, you're taking a risk! Xiao Tao is our academy's rising star, how can you so easily put her in such an uncertain situation?"

Another mentor said with concern.

Yan Shaozhe pondered for a moment and said:

"It's not that I don't care about Xiao Tao's future, but sometimes, breaking the rules can bring unexpected opportunities. Let's see if Tang Lan can really keep his promise and solve Xiao Tao's problem of 'evil fire'. If he can, it might not be a bad thing for Xiao Tao."

The mentors, upon hearing this, still looked unconvinced.

However, due to the dean's insistence, they could only suppress their worries for the time being and wait for things to develop further.

Yan Shaozhe's gaze fell on Tang Lan, his eyes filled with scrutiny and inquiry.

He was also eager to know what method Tang Lan had to resolve Ma Xiaotao's problem of "evil fire".

He racked his brains and tried every possible method to help Ma Xiaotao solve this problem.

He consulted countless ancient books and secret manuals, and sought guidance from many experienced masters.

They tried all sorts of rare herbs and elixirs.

He even personally devised a series of special cultivation plans for Ma Xiaotao, but all of them ultimately failed.

They even sought help from Elder Mu, a highly respected and accomplished scholar in the academy.

Even a peerless master like Elder Mu had no solution.

He spent a great deal of time and energy on this, becoming completely exhausted.

After repeated failures, he had completely given up.

Now Tang Lan confidently asserts that she has a solution.

This gave Yan Shaozhe both a glimmer of hope and a deep sense of suspicion, wondering what abilities this seemingly arrogant young man possessed.

It is ridiculous to place one's hopes on a mere second-ring Grand Soul Master.

After all, even many senior instructors and highly skilled seniors in the academy were helpless in dealing with the problem of evil fire that Ma Xiaotao was facing.

What can a second-ring Soul Master with such low cultivation achieve?

This is as absurd as entrusting the heavy responsibility of saving the world to an ignorant child.

But now Yan Shaozhe has no choice but to try anything, even if it seems hopeless.

After experiencing disappointment and setback after setback, he had no other choice. All conventional methods had been tried.

We've tried every possible approach, but we're still clueless.

At this moment, he was like a traveler lost in the darkness, clinging tightly to even the faintest glimmer of light as his last lifeline. (End of Chapter)

Chapter 776 These are all minor matters

He secretly harbored some expectations for Tang Lan.

This seemingly ordinary young man displayed an extraordinary temperament and remarkable confidence from the very beginning.

His eyes revealed a firmness and decisiveness, as if nothing could stop his determination.

This is an extraordinary genius who may truly create miracles, break conventions, and find a solution to that long-standing problem.

Yan Shaozhe held this hope deep in his heart, even though he himself felt that this hope was almost a luxury.

Looking at Ma Xiaotao, who was already wavering,

Tang Lan understood that all he needed now was a drastic measure to bring Ma Xiaotao under his control and make her his woman.

A glint of cunning and smugness flashed in his eyes, and his slightly narrowed pupils seemed to conceal a bottomless conspiracy.

He secretly began to plan his next move.

Like a seasoned hunter, about to deliver the final, fatal blow to its prey.

Tang Lan narrowed her eyes slightly, a determined glint in them.

He glanced around first, then took a small step forward. That small step was taken with extreme caution, as if afraid of attracting too much attention from others.

His body slowly moved closer to Ma Xiaotao, and with each step closer...

His expression became increasingly mysterious and focused.

As he drew closer, he bent down slightly, brought his head close to Ma Xiaotao's ear, and whispered:

"Senior Sister Xiaotao, as long as you trust me, I guarantee that I can not only solve your problem of evil fire, but also help you reach a higher level in your cultivation and become an unparalleled existence in the academy."

"At that time, everyone will look at you with new eyes, and you will become an object of admiration, enjoying endless glory and respect."

His words were full of seduction.

Like a sweet poison, every word seems to possess a magical power, weaving a magnificent yet illusory picture of the future.

Ma Xiaotao slightly raised her head, a hint of hesitation and confusion in her eyes.

She was struggling intensely, torn between her desire to resolve the problem of her internal fire.

On the other hand, there is doubt and uncertainty about Tang Lan.

Seeing this, Tang Lan pressed her advantage:

"Senior, this is a golden opportunity, don't miss it!"

"Do you really want to be tormented by this evil fire forever, unable to unleash your true power, unable to realize your dreams and ambitions?"

"This is a golden opportunity for you to change your destiny; once you miss it, you'll never have another chance."

His voice grew deeper and more magnetic, possessing a captivating power.

He attempted to further sway Ma Xiaotao's mind, plunging her completely into the trap he had meticulously laid.

Ma Xiaotao was deeply shaken at this moment. Her brows were furrowed, and her eyes were filled with struggle and confusion.

Her once rosy lips were now trembling slightly, and her delicate face was pale from the torment in her heart.

Seeing this, Tang Lan felt the time was ripe. Without haste, she took out a pill from her bosom that emitted a strange light and a fragrant aroma, and slowly said:

"Senior Sister Xiaotao, I found this pill after going through many hardships. It has miraculous effects and can greatly alleviate the trouble caused by the uncontrollable evil fire in your body."

"I believe that once you take it, your condition will definitely improve. You might as well give it a try."

Tang Lan knew that she had already begun to win over Ma Xiaotao with her words.

However, he knew in his heart that for her to truly be convinced and wholeheartedly become his woman,

These words alone are far from enough; we also need some concrete actions.

Only by making the other party truly understand that you genuinely possess sufficient strength to help her completely resolve her problem of internal heat can you truly help her.

Only then can she completely submit to him.

At this moment, Tang Lan's gaze was fixed on Ma Xiaotao.

He didn't miss a single subtle change in her expression, not even the slightest tremor of her eyelashes.

Ma Xiaotao looked at the pill in front of her, which was emitting a rich medicinal fragrance.

Her brows furrowed, her eyes revealing conflict and hesitation. She bit her lower lip lightly, her once pink lips now slightly pale from the force.

Fine beads of sweat seeped from her smooth forehead. She seemed to be engaged in a fierce internal struggle.

Her hands unconsciously clenched the hem of her clothes, her knuckles turning white from the force.

After hesitating for a moment, he finally slowly reached out his slightly trembling hand to take it.

"Can this tiny pill really solve my problem of internal heat?"

Ma Xiaotao asked, full of doubt.

Her once bright eyes were now clouded with gloom, and her voice trembled slightly.
