Moreover, Franya recalled her previous experience hunting soul beasts with Lao Zhao. She remembered clearly that they easily found two soul beasts that were perfect for the two of them.

If she rashly assigns fifth spirit rings to Qian San and Xiao Qing, causing dissatisfaction among the seniors, and they blame her, she, Franya, will definitely be in deep trouble.

Thinking of this, Franya stopped smiling.

She looked at Qian San and Xiao Qing, thought for a moment, and said, "It's wonderful that you've both broken through. However, I can't make a decision about your fifth spirit rings on my own. I must consult your father before I can make a decision."

"Before your father sends back the message, don't rush to break through to the next realm. Use your excess soul power to hone your foundation and practice your control over your martial souls. The more stable your foundation, the greater the benefits you will receive when absorbing soul rings in the future."

Upon hearing Franya mention her father, Qian San instantly understood.

He knew very well what Franya was worried about, and at the same time, he fully agreed with her decision.

In Qian San's heart, he had long been filled with deep respect for his father's guidance. From the very first day he began cultivating, his father had taken care of everything, from the combination of his soul skills to the selection of the age of each soul ring and the types of soul beasts.

As it turned out, every arrangement the father made was perfect.

It was precisely because of his father's planning that he possessed absolute overwhelming strength among his peers, and even enabled liquid metal to have such versatile abilities. He had long since gained unwavering faith in his father's judgment.

Qian San would naturally not compromise on such a crucial step as the fifth spirit ring.

"I understand, Professor Fu." Qian San nodded.

"Since I haven't broken through yet, I'll hone my skills first. There's no rush to increase my soul power level. As for the soul rings, we'll await Father's instructions."

Xiaoqing nodded in agreement.

Hearing that the two had agreed, Franya breathed a sigh of relief. She picked up her juice and invited everyone to eat again. The dinner continued in a relaxed atmosphere, with everyone filled with anticipation for the future.

.....

Tian Dou City.

After some twists and turns, Flander, along with Yu Xiaogang, visited almost every medical clinic in Heaven Dou City. With the last of Flander's gold coins, they finally managed to hire a high-level healing-type Soul Master.

Fortunately, Yu Xiaogang's right leg was treated in time. The healing-type Soul Master went to great lengths to successfully reconnect the broken bones and meridians. However, even with the reconnection, Yu Xiaogang will now walk with a noticeable limp and it will take a long time to fully recover.

Looking at Yu Xiaogang, whose body was wrapped in bandages, Flander sighed. Shrek Academy was now completely without a place to stay, and the Heaven Dou Royal Academy had become an absolutely forbidden zone.

With nowhere else to turn, Flander could only lead the group of wounded teachers and students along the streets of Tiandou City, asking for directions along the way, until they finally arrived at the gates of Blue Tyrant Academy.

What happened next followed a predetermined trajectory.

When Liu Erlong, the dean of Lanba Academy, heard her subordinates report that a group of people claiming to be from Shrek Academy had come to visit, she immediately dropped everything she was doing and rushed to the gate like a madwoman.

Twenty years of waiting and longing finally erupted the moment he saw Flander and Yu Xiaogang on the stretcher.

"Xiaogang!" Liu Erlong rushed to the stretcher, tears streaming down her face.

However, when she saw Yu Xiaogang's right leg, which was firmly fixed in a splint, and his bloodless face, Liu Erlong's heart clenched.

"Who did this? Who beat Xiaogang up like this!" Liu Erlong suddenly stood up, her eyes bloodshot, like an angry lioness, grabbing Flander's arm and questioning loudly.

Flander lowered his head, unsure of how to begin.

In truth, beneath Liu Erlong's angry facade, a secret joy, one that even she herself found somewhat despicable, arose within her heart.

She knew Yu Xiaogang too well. This man was weak-willed and only knew how to run away from emotional problems. For the past twenty years, he had been hiding from her, and no matter how hard she looked, she couldn't find him.

But now, Xiaogang's leg is broken. He's seriously injured, and he can't run away.

This meant that for a long period of time during his recovery, Xiao Gang would have to stay obediently at Lanba Academy and by her side. She could finally see him every day and openly take care of him in every possible way.

"Erlong, don't get agitated." Flander's heart sank as he looked at Liu Erlong's complex emotions. He knew that what he was about to say would be a devastating blow to Erlong.

Flander gritted his teeth, pulled Liu Erlong aside, away from the students, and lowered his voice to a whisper:

"Xiao Gang's leg... is only part of the injury. He... he suffered a more serious injury."

"Are there any more serious injuries? Where else?" Liu Erlong asked anxiously, stepping forward to untie Yu Xiaogang's bandages.

Flander pressed her hand down tightly, closed his eyes, and uttered with difficulty, "Back in Soto City, Xiao Gang... he was slapped... castrated by a Contra Pro on the other side. He's completely gone."

These words struck Liu Erlong like a bolt from the blue.

Liu Erlong froze on the spot, her eyes wide and her face blank with disbelief. She stared blankly at Yu Xiaogang on the stretcher, her mind buzzing, and even her breath caught in her throat.

Castrated?

Completely gone?

After a brief silence, Liu Erlong went completely mad.

"ah--!!!"

Liu Erlong let out a shrill and furious scream. Her soul power poured out without reservation. A huge phantom of a fire dragon suddenly appeared behind her, and the scorching flames instantly cracked the surrounding floor tiles.

"The Heaven Dou Royal Academy, is it? I'll kill them! I'll tear them to pieces!"

Liu Erlong's eyes were bloodshot, her reason completely consumed by rage. She turned and charged towards the Heavenly Dou Royal Academy. She was going to storm their doorstep and take those bastards who had harmed Xiao Gang down with her.

"Erlong! Calm down!"

Upon seeing this, Flander and Zhao Wuji immediately summoned their martial spirits, grabbing Liu Erlong's arms tightly from both sides and desperately pulling her back.

"Let me go! Boss Fu, let me go!" Liu Erlong struggled frantically, tears and rage mingling together. "They ruined Xiaogang! They ruined his life! And they ruined mine! I'm going to kill them!"

Flander roared, "Going there is suicide! They're facing two Soul Douluos! What can a Soul Saint like you do? Do you want Xiao Gang to be left without anyone to take care of him in the end?!"
