The Tree Realm Descends on Douluo Continent

Chapter 188 Tang San: My secret is known to everyone?

"So what if we lose?" Tang San seemed to have heard something unbelievable, and stared at Flander in disbelief.

He never expected that the dean, who had always cared so much about Shrek Academy's victory or defeat, would say such a thing today.

Tang San took two deep breaths: "Dean, Shrek Academy is your life's work! Are you really just going to stand by and watch us fail in the qualifying rounds without doing anything?"

"Xiao San, you are still young. Regardless of whether you win or lose in this Soul Master Competition, it will be a valuable experience for you. Keep a calm mindset. Five years from now will be the time for you to truly shine."

Flander forced a smile and patted Tang San on the shoulder: "Five years from now, you will probably have advanced to the level of Soul King or Soul Emperor. At that time, winning the championship will be a piece of cake for you."

Tang San glanced at the large hand on his shoulder: "Dean, are you planning to withdraw from this year's Soul Master Competition?"

Flander withdrew his hand, interrupting Tang San's next words: "Little San, it's not that I want to give up, but reality forces me to. If Tianheng were still here, I would be willing to let you try again, but now it's all too late."

Yu Tianheng. Yu Tianheng, that's all the people in the academy know right now. He admits that Yu Tianheng is very strong, but that's only based on the other party's age and the fact that he only uses the Blue Silver Grass martial soul.

A shadow flashed in Tang San's eyes. Moreover, if Yu Xiaogang hadn't attached the wrong spirit ring to him, even if he was using Blue Silver Grass, how could he be weaker than Yu Tianheng in the team?

"Dean, we still have a chance. As long as we add four ten-thousand-year spirit rings to my Clear Sky Hammer, no matter how strong Li Xun is, the vines he summons will not be able to withstand the power of the number one weapon spirit on the continent."

"Little San! Xiao Gang specifically told us before he left that we should wait until your teacher comes back before discussing this further." Flander felt a bit tired and sighed, not wanting to continue on this issue.

Tang San felt a surge of frustration upon hearing Flander's perfunctory words: "Dean, you only have twenty days left. You should know what missing this opportunity means. Five years—you should know how long five years is. We can improve, but so can Li Xun and the Heaven Dou Team."

Flander abruptly raised his hand: "Alright, little San, no matter what you say, I won't agree. Listen to the dean, and wait obediently for your teacher to return. It's getting late, you should go back and get some rest. You have training tomorrow, and I have some other things to do tomorrow as well."

"The other matter, do you mean finding Liu Erlong?" Tang San stared intently at Flander and suddenly asked.

Flander was taken aback by what he heard. Feeling Tang San's gaze, he frowned and looked Tang San up and down without saying a word.

After a long silence, Tang San finally broke the ice: "Then I won't disturb the Dean any longer."

"Okay, get some rest." After Flander finished speaking, he slowly closed the door.

Tang San felt an unventable anger welling up inside him. He took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and turned to walk towards Zhao Wuji.

Since even Flander already knows the secret of his twin martial souls, one more person won't make a difference.

Thump thump thump—

"Is Teacher Zhao Wuji here?" Tang San knocked on Zhao Wuji's door and briefly explained the situation.

Upon hearing this, Zhao Wuji laughed heartily: "Haha, Little San, I already know about this. However, your teacher specifically instructed us not to take you to obtain a spirit ring before he left. We'll discuss everything when he returns."

"You? You all knew?" Tang San was stunned, staring blankly at Zhao Wuji.

"Yes, I must say, the master really understands your personality. He knew you would be impatient." Zhao Wuji chuckled and raised an eyebrow at Tang San.

Tang San looked at Zhao Wuji's winking and gesturing, unsure how to express his current feelings. He felt that everything was so ridiculous.

So the secret my father and teacher had been keeping from me was something so worthless? I bet everyone except the Shrek Academy members knows I have twin martial souls by now.

Moreover, given the current situation, unless Yu Xiaogang speaks up, no matter how much he begs, these people probably won't take him to obtain the spirit ring.

So this is Shrek Academy? Tang San looked up at the moonlight, his heart growing cold.

"Hey? People just can't help but talk about it. Little San, look! Isn't Master back?" Just as Tang San was lost in thought, Zhao Wuji pointed at the dormitory door and shouted.

Tang San was taken aback upon hearing this, then overjoyed, and quickly turned to look in the direction Zhao Wuji was pointing.

Yu Xiaogang was seen walking towards the dormitory from the main gate with his head down, looking travel-worn.

"Teacher, you're back." Seeing that Yu Xiaogang seemed to ignore the two of them and kept his head down as he walked forward, Tang San quickly used Ghost Shadow Tracking to arrive at the door of Yu Xiaogang's dormitory.

"You're back." Hearing the call, Yu Xiaogang sighed inwardly, a hint of helplessness flashing across his perpetually stiff expression.

"How was it, teacher? Did you gain anything from this trip?" Tang San asked expectantly.

"Xiao San, let's put aside the matter of adding a spirit ring to the Clear Sky Hammer for now. We'll talk about it again when I find a better way." Yu Xiaogang's eyes flashed with bitterness as he took off his coat and shook off the dust.

Yu Xiaogang understood Tang San and knew that with his pride, he would never give up on defeating Li Xun. He also knew Tang San's eagerness to add a spirit ring to the Clear Sky Hammer.

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

He was afraid that Tang San would be impatient. To save time, he traveled day and night to Wuhun City, shortening the journey from more than twenty days to less than fifteen days. Now he was extremely exhausted.

But more than anything, he didn't know how to tell Tang San that he had returned empty-handed.

Upon hearing Yu Xiaogang tell him to put the matter aside for now, Tang San's expectant expression vanished, and his breathing became rapid: "Teacher, you were gone for so long just to tell me this?"

Seeing Tang San's expression, Yu Xiaogang knew that he must be feeling a little uncomfortable, so he quickly tried to comfort him.

"Little San, I'm doing this for your own good. I've already explained the drawbacks of having twin martial souls to you. If there's no solution, you might explode and die when you attach the first soul ring to your second martial soul."

"Teacher, I've heard this kind of talk countless times. I can recite it by heart now."

Tang San, his face grim, raised his hand to interrupt Yu Xiaogang, who was about to say something: "Could you please provide some useful information?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang's face turned cold, and his hands clenched tightly inside his sleeves: "Xiao San, don't you trust your teacher?"

"Teacher, I once trusted you completely, but what was the result?" Tang San sneered and spread his hands: "My Blue Silver Grass martial soul is ruined."

"Your martial soul is ruined?" Yu Xiaogang felt a surge of anger and pointed at Tang San with a trembling hand: "Have you forgotten that if it weren't for me, your Blue Silver Grass would have been a useless martial soul forever?"
