The Tree Realm Descends on Douluo Continent

Chapter 181 Do you understand social etiquette?

"This student, I don't care what happened, but please restrain yourself. If someone dies, it will be a loss for Shrek Academy. You don't want your academy to be disqualified because of this, do you?"

Seeing that the teaching assistant from Canghui Academy had failed to persuade him, the referee in charge of the competition immediately came to the arena and looked at Tang San with a serious expression.

"What are you doing, mistress?"

Fred then came onto the field with a serious expression: "I don't care what happened on the field, don't be impulsive, after all, you are now concerned about the entire Shrek team."

Tang San glanced at Flander with icy eyes, thought for a moment, and then put away the Eight Spider Lances: "I was just helping them detoxify. If I hadn't dealt with them in time, their lives would have been in danger. But you interrupted me."

"If you don't believe me, you are free to test it yourselves, but I can tell you that no one but me can cure this poison."

Upon hearing this, the referee and the teaching assistant from Canghui Academy immediately came over to check, and soon after, they called over some other people to conduct the examination.

At this moment, Liu Erlong also stepped onto the stage. She walked straight to Xiao Wu and the others, looking at the tearful young men and women with some confusion: "Xiao Wu, what's wrong?"

"Godmother!! I just saw Third Brother die, and I also saw my mother die." Xiao Wu wiped away her tears and buried her face in Liu Erlong's arms.

"What happened?" Liu Erlong gently stroked Xiao Wu's head, patted her back, and asked softly.

Upon hearing the question, Xiao Wu recounted the series of events that led her into the illusion.

Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong's expression changed drastically, and her voluptuous body trembled involuntarily. At that moment, she recalled the scenes that the pagoda had shown her.

"Little Wu, that's just an illusion. Let's go down first." Liu Erlong patted Little Wu's back, then took her hand and led Shrek and the others off the stage.

The organizers quickly brought in some healing-type Soul Masters. However, after verification, they found that they were indeed unable to cure the toxins on the Canghui team members.

Tang San stood on the stage, coldly watching everything unfold.

"Now that you've won, I hope you can remove the toxins from their bodies to prevent any accidents." After being signaled by the organizers, the referee nodded and said to Tang San.

"Yes, but they will be in a period of weakness after the detoxification, and their soul power will decrease for a while." Tang San nodded.

Upon hearing this, the assistant coach of the Canghui team immediately began to debate, but Tang San bluntly stated that even if the academy withdrew from the competition, he could not provide any other antidote. For the sake of the students' lives, the assistant coach had no choice but to give up.

Tang San sneered, then inserted the Eight Spider Lances into the Canghui student's body, feeling the continuous flow of life force returning to him, and his heart was filled with joy.

Li Xun slowly stood up from the stands, took Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong's hands, and walked towards the exit of the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena: "It seems that the definition of evil soul masters should be accelerated."

Inside the Jiangyue VIP room on the third floor of Wangyue Tower in Wuhun City, Yu Xiaogang was looking at the gate of Wuhun Hall with a worried expression.

He had been waiting here for ten days since the papal decree was taken away by the guards, but Bibi Dong never stepped out of the papal palace, which troubled him greatly.

Although he had enough money to stay for a while, Yu Xiaogang was worried that Tang San wouldn't be able to wait that long.

"Let's try one last time. If all else fails, we'll have to go back and ask our father to come." Yu Xiaogang shook his head with a wry smile.

He could already imagine Yu Yuanzhen's expression when he learned that his papal decree had been taken away at the entrance of the Papal Palace.

That must have been a mixture of anger and shame.

Yu Xiaogang sighed, packed his things, and left the hotel.

"Stop! Please show your pass or identity token." The same words, the same stop, but this time the guards had been replaced.

Yu Xiaogang looked around carefully and found that the guards here were not the same people he had seen that day, and he immediately felt hopeless.

But thinking that his mistress was still waiting for news from him in Tiandou, he had no choice but to suppress his discomfort and tell the new guard what had happened in the past two days.

After hearing the story, the guard looked sympathetic: "Alas! This concerns the Pope's decree, so we dare not be careless. However, you don't seem to be lying. How about this, I can try to find a way to get your message to the Pope's ears."

Yu Xiaogang hadn't held out much hope to begin with, and he had already anticipated what the guard had said earlier, but the guard's sudden change of tone caught him off guard.

"You said you could inform them for me?"

The guard nodded: "That's certainly possible, but I'll need to cultivate some connections first."

"Thank you very much then." A rare smile appeared on Yu Xiaogang's stiff face as he nodded to the guard. He rarely asked for favors in his life, and he rarely said thank you, let alone thank a gatekeeper.

The guard smiled and nodded at Yu Xiaogang.

The two men stared at each other with smiles for a long time. The guard's smile gradually faded, and he looked ahead as if nothing had happened.

Yu Xiaogang was taken aback and glanced at the guard with some confusion. Then, as if remembering something, he quickly took out thirty gold soul coins and handed them over: "I'm sorry, brother, I haven't had this kind of experience for more than ten years, and I had almost forgotten. These are just a small token of my appreciation."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

At this moment, Yu Xiaogang's forehead was covered in fine beads of sweat from embarrassment. He had only encountered such incidents when he was young and traveling across the mainland, but since he went to Notting Academy, which was run by his friend, nothing like this had happened again. He had almost forgotten about asking for favors and making connections.

The guard glanced at the gold soul coins in Yu Xiaogang's hand but did not answer.

Yu Xiaogang thought for a moment, then took out twenty more coins, put them together, and handed them over, but the guard still didn't move.

"Young man, this is all I can offer. If it's really not enough, then forget it." Yu Xiaogang gritted his teeth and took out another twenty gold soul coins.

When he came to Wuhun City, Liu Erlong insisted on giving him 100 gold soul coins. After deducting the 10 coins he spent on hiring a carriage along the way and the 10 coins he spent on lodging, he was left with 80 gold soul coins. And that doesn't even include the ridiculously expensive service fees at Xunyang Tower.

The guard glanced at Yu Xiaogang, who looked troubled, sighed, and then took the seventy gold soul coins from his hand: "Actually, your gold soul coins are not enough. If I want to pass on some messages, I need to bribe some people."

"But seeing how pitiful you are, I'll just give you some money this time to help you out."

"But even if I finish making the arrangements, it will take some time. After all, the Pope's authority is not something we can easily violate. Just wait and see."

"Thank you, sir." Yu Xiaogang breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

The guard, Chongyu Xiaogang, nodded, then turned and disappeared through the door.

But Yu Xiaogang waited until dark, and even after two shifts of guards had changed, he never saw the man come out again.

Looking at the dark night, Yu Xiaogang felt as if he had been tricked. However, the guard said that even if it cost money, it would take some time to make arrangements, so he felt it was necessary to give the other party some more time.
