Chapter 23 Yu Xiaogang is ridiculed by the masses

"Mu Bai, who is this?"

Seeing a stunningly beautiful woman beside Dai Mubai, Flander felt a surge of curiosity, especially since Dai Mubai hadn't been near any women all year. Besides, it wasn't appropriate to discuss the morning's events with Dai Mubai in this setting.

"This is my fiancée, Zhu Zhuqing, whom I have been engaged to since childhood. She is 12 years old, currently has a soul power of level 30, and is an agility-type beast soul master. This is Mr. Flander, the dean of my school, Shrek Academy. He is a level 78 Soul Saint."

Dai Mubai Flander hesitated, afraid that he would reveal his past romantic affairs, so he quickly introduced them to each other.

"Zhu Qing greets the Dean."

Upon hearing that he was the dean of Dai Mubai Academy and a level 78 Soul Saint, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but bow to Flander with a touch of respect.

While Flander appeared formal on the surface when Dai Mubai introduced Zhu Zhuqing, he couldn't help but chuckle inwardly. It turned out his fiancée was coming; he'd worked so hard over the past year.

When he heard that Zhu Zhuqing was only 12 years old but possessed a soul power of more than 30 levels, he was overjoyed. Now all the people participating in the All-Continent Elite Soul Master Competition would be there.

Flanders nodded slightly and smiled at Zhu Zhuqing, saying there was no need for such formalities.

The three then found a teahouse and sat down. During this time, Dai Mubai asked Zhu Zhuqing to check if the tea was ready. Zhu Zhuqing, being a perceptive person, immediately understood Dai Mubai's meaning and slowly got up and left.

Seeing that Zhu Zhuqing had completely left, Flander spoke with some dissatisfaction.

"Mu Bai, why did you act so recklessly today? This is not like you."

Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai had already come up with a solution, so he shook his head and spoke with a hint of embarrassment.

"Dean, firstly, this so-called master hardly knew anything about me, Fatty, and Xiao Ao when he designed the special training, so I'm angry. Secondly, my fiancée has been coming for the past two days, and I've been asking around for days without any news. You also know some of the rules of our Star Luo royal family. I'm afraid that Zhu Qing might be ambushed by their people and something might happen to her. With both of these factors combined, I got a little agitated this morning."

After saying that, Dai Mubai also put on a helpless expression. In this situation, he really couldn't control his emotions well.

Flander nodded slightly after listening. It was true that Xiao Gang hadn't done enough in terms of special training. Plus, Mu Bai hadn't received any news about his fiancée these past few days, which had made him a bit irritable. Honestly, even he himself might not have been able to remain calm in that situation, let alone a ten-year-old child.

So he changed to a more relaxed tone and discussed it with Dai Mubai.

"Both Master and Mu Bai are at fault in this matter. You should go back and explain the reason to everyone. Otherwise, it may have a negative impact on our academy's participation in the Continental Elite Soul Master Tournament."

Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai felt somewhat helpless, as there wasn't a good way to make Flander and Yu Xiaogang break up at the moment.

However, Ma Hongjun and Oscar couldn't immediately break with their mentor who had nurtured them for so many years. They could only find an opportunity later to expose Yu Xiaogang's true colors to Flander.

So Dai Mubai pretended to be a little embarrassed but still nodded to indicate that he could accept it.

Then Dai Mubai brought Zhu Zhuqing back, and the three of them headed towards the Soto City Arena together.

Soto City Arena

Zhao Wuji had already led everyone through all the registration procedures, and then Tang San, making his first appearance, faced his first opponent.

As for Tang San's nickname, it's still that familiar name: Thousand-Handed Asura.

"Hello everyone, now it's time for the match to take the stage the rookie Thousand Hands Shura and his opponent, our three-time undefeated Zi Gang!"

After the host finished his introduction, Tang San and Zi Gang stepped onto the battlefield.

Zi Gang, with his muscular physique, couldn't help but marvel at his good fortune when he saw that his opponent was a newcomer. He then laughed loudly and began to insult Tang San recklessly.

"Little brat, go back to your milk. This isn't a place for you."

Tang San's gaze turned cold, his eyes turning icy. Zi Gang's actions confirmed to him that this man was already courting death.

"Zi Gang, Level 29, Martial Soul: Purple Elephant Tamer! Defensive Beast Soul Master!"

Zi Gang had just finished speaking when he completed the Martial Soul Possession. His ability to achieve three consecutive victories was due to the terrifying defensive power and impact ability of his Martial Soul after its mutation. After all, at level 29, unless one possessed the power of a Soul Master, no one could break through his defense.

"Thousand-Faced Asura, Level 29, Martial Soul: Blue Silver Grass! Control-type Weapon Soul Master."

After Tang San finished speaking, not only Zi Gang, but also many people in the audience laughed. After all, the fact that a Blue Silver Grass Soul Master dared to come to the arena was a shock to them.

"Go, Third Brother! Defeat this stupid elephant!"

Of the six Shrek Seven Devils in the audience, only Xiao Wu was cheering Tang San on. After all, Zhao Wuji wasn't interested in such a duel, Yu Xiaogang was unwilling to participate for the sake of face, and Ma Hongjun and Oscar were busy explaining the details of the dual-soul battle to Ning Rongrong.

"Aren't we from the same college? Why aren't you cheering for Third Brother?"

Seeing that she was the only one cheering for Tang San, Xiao Wu looked at the three people beside her and couldn't help but speak with some dissatisfaction.

"Rongrong is a support-type Soul Master, so he can only participate in two-person Soul Battles. He and Ma Hongjun went to the Soul Master's battlefield, so we definitely need to give him careful instructions. Besides, don't you trust your third brother, who's only level 29?"

Oscar slowly analyzed the pros and cons, and couldn't help but shut Xiao Wu up. After all, she couldn't very well say that she didn't trust Tang San, could she?

As expected, upon hearing this, Xiao Wu immediately lost her temper and couldn't help but curse the three of them in her heart to be beaten up when they came on stage.

"Barring any unforeseen circumstances, the mistress will be able to take him down in fifty rounds."

Yu Xiaogang spoke with certainty, after all, he knew Tang San's strength.

Xiao Wu's mood instantly improved upon hearing this, and she smiled as she looked down at the audience. The three of them pretended not to hear, since they already had a basic understanding of Tang San's strength and knew defeating him wouldn't be a problem, but they didn't want to see Yu Xiaogang showing off.

Indeed, barring any unforeseen circumstances, Tang San has a real chance of winning in fifty rounds. However, the fact that he didn't take a medicinal bath during yesterday's weighted run increases the possibility of an unexpected event.

At this moment, Tang San, who was just one move away from defeating Zi Gang, suddenly felt a sharp pain in his right leg.

This moment slowed Tang San down, allowing Zi Gang to survive. Zi Gang then punched Tang San in the chest with his backhand, sending him flying several meters away and giving him a chance to catch his breath.

Tang San couldn't help but groan from the blow. Seeing this, Zi Gang pressed his advantage and continued to entangle with Tang San.

At this moment, Xiao Wu on the stage couldn't help but feel a pang of anxiety when she saw Tang San get hit. Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Ning Rongrong, on the other hand, looked at Yu Xiaogang with expressions of anticipation.

Upon seeing this, Ma Hongjun spoke quietly.

"Master, when we fight next, please don't say anything about whether it was an accident or not. Your prediction is just too accurate."

Upon hearing Ma Hongjun's words, Yu Xiaogang felt insulted. He suppressed his feelings outwardly, but inwardly he was extremely dissatisfied with the accident that had happened to Tang San.

Zhao Wuji didn't say much, after all, it was all just too much of a coincidence.

After several dozen more rounds, Tang San finally defeated Zi Gang and returned to the rest room despite his injuries.

Seeing this, Xiao Wu quickly took the medicine and went over. Under Zhao Wuji's signal, Oscar had no choice but to hand his sausage to Tang San.

At this moment, Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but speak up, asking Tang San in a tone of extreme dissatisfaction.

"Little San, your mistake today was absolutely unacceptable. Don't you know how fatal such a mistake could be on the battlefield or when fighting spirit beasts?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu couldn't help but want to speak up for Tang San, but Tang San interrupted her and couldn't help but answer honestly.

"Teacher, I'm sorry. During the last move, I felt a sharp pain in my right leg, and the pain became more and more pronounced after I was thrown several meters away."

Upon hearing Tang San's words, everyone turned to look at Yu Xiaogang. After all, there seemed to be only one reason for the soreness: yesterday's weighted run, right?

The four students besides Tang San were secretly laughing at Yu Xiaogang's stupidity.

Xiao Wu's face looked rather unpleasant.

Tang San then realized that he had inadvertently told the truth and embarrassed his teacher.

Yu Xiaogang was at a loss for words, feeling incredibly embarrassed. Just then, Flander returned with Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing.
