23: Yu Xiaogang was ridiculed by the crowd

"Mu Bai, who is this?"

Seeing the stunning beauty with outstanding temperament beside Dai Mubai, Flander was still a little curious. After all, Dai Mubai hadn't been close to women for a year. Moreover, it wasn't appropriate to discuss the morning's events with Dai Mubai in this setting.

"This is my fiancée, Zhu Zhuqing, with whom I had an engagement since childhood. She is 12 years old, currently at Soul Power level 30, a agility-attack system Beast Soul Master. Zhu Qing, this is Mr. Flander, the head of Shrek Academy where I study. He is a Soul Saint powerhouse at level 78."

Dai Mubai still had something he wanted to say to Flander but hesitated, afraid he would mention his past romantic escapades, so he quickly introduced them to each other.

"Zhu Qing greets the Head."

Upon hearing that he was the head of Dai Mubai's academy and a level 78 Soul Saint powerhouse, Zhu Zhuqing couldn't help but bow respectfully to Flander.

Flander heard Dai Mubai's formal introduction of Zhu Zhuqing, but his heart couldn't help but laugh. So this was why he had worked so hard in the past year, because his fiancée was coming.

When he heard that Zhu Zhuqing, though only 12, possessed Soul Power over level 30, his heart was filled with joy. Wouldn't this complete the team for the All-Continent Elite Soul Master Competition?

So Flander also nodded slightly and smiled, telling Zhu Zhuqing there was no need for formalities.

Afterward, the three of them found a tea house and sat down. During this time, Dai Mubai asked Zhu Zhuqing to check if the tea was ready. Zhu Zhuqing was a perceptive person and immediately understood Dai Mubai's meaning, slowly getting up and leaving.

Seeing that Zhu Zhuqing had completely left, Flander spoke with a hint of dissatisfaction.

"Mu Bai, regarding today's matter, why did you act so rashly? This isn't like your style."

Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai had already thought of a countermeasure, so he shook his head and spoke with a bit of embarrassment.

"Head, firstly, this so-called Grandmaster barely understood me, Fatty, and Oscar when designing the special training, which is why I was angry. Secondly, my fiancée was supposed to arrive these past two days, and I had been inquiring for days without any news. You also know some of the rules of our Star Luo imperial family. I was afraid that Zhu Qing might be ambushed by their people and something unexpected might happen. With both these things combined, I was a little agitated this morning."

After speaking, Dai Mubai also put on a look of helplessness. In this situation, he really couldn't control his emotions very well.

Flander listened and nodded slightly. Indeed, Xiao Gang's special training design was not thorough enough. Coupled with Mu Bai not receiving any news about his fiancée for the past few days, his temper would naturally be a bit volatile. Frankly speaking, if it were himself in that situation, he might not be able to remain calm, let alone a child in his teens.

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

"Both Grandmaster and you, Mu Bai, were in the wrong regarding this matter. Just go back and explain the reason to everyone. Otherwise, it might have a negative impact on our academy participating in the All-Continent Elite Soul Master Competition."

Upon hearing this, Dai Mubai felt a bit helpless. After all, at this time, there was no good way to make Flander and Yu Xiaogang fall out.

And Ma Hongjun and Oscar couldn't immediately break ties with the mentor who had nurtured them for so many years. They could only find another opportunity in the future to expose Yu Xiaogang's true face in front of Flander.

So Dai Mubai pretended to be a bit troubled but still nodded, indicating he could accept it.

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

Inside the Soto City Arena

Zhao Wuji had already led the group to complete all the registration procedures, and then Tang San, making his first appearance, welcomed his first opponent.

As for Tang San's nickname, he still used that familiar name: Thousand Hands Shura.

"Hello everyone, now entering the arena is the newcomer Thousand Hands Shura and his opponent, our three-time winner, Purple Steel!"

After the host finished the introduction, Tang San and Purple Steel walked onto the battlefield.

Purple Steel, with his muscular physique, looked at his opponent, a newcomer, and couldn't help but feel lucky. So he laughed loudly and wantonly insulted Tang San.

"Little brat, go back and drink your milk, this isn't the place for you."

Tang San's gaze turned cold, his eyes becoming icy. Purple Steel's behavior made him certain that this person had found a path to death.

"Purple Steel, level 29, Martial Soul Purple Imperial Elephant! Defense System Beast Soul Master!"

After speaking, Purple Steel had already completed his Martial Soul Possession. He was able to achieve three consecutive victories relying on the terrifying defense and charging ability of his mutated Martial Soul. After all, at level 29, unless it was the power of a Soul Venerable, no one could even break his defense.

"Thousand Faces Shura, level 29, Martial Soul Blue Silver Grass! control system Tool Soul Master."

After Tang San spoke, not only Purple Steel, but also the audience in the stands burst into laughter. After all, the fact that a Blue Silver Grass Soul Master dared to come to the arena completely overturned their understanding.

"San Ge, go go go! Beat that dumb elephant!"

Among the six Shrek members below the stage, only Xiao Wu was cheering vigorously for Tang San. After all, Zhao Wuji wasn't interested in this kind of match, Yu Xiaogang didn't want to lose face, and Ma Hongjun and Oscar were explaining the details of the two-person Soul Duel to Ning Rongrong.

"Aren't we from the same academy? Why aren't you cheering for San Ge?"

Seeing that she was the only one cheering for Tang San for a long time, Xiao Wu couldn't help but speak with a hint of dissatisfaction, looking at the three beside her.

"Rong Rong is a support system Soul Master and can only participate in two-person Soul Duels. He and Ma Hongjun are going to the Soul Venerable battlefield, so they definitely need careful instructions. Besides, he's only level 29, don't you trust your San Ge?"

Oscar slowly analyzed the pros and cons, immediately leaving Xiao Wu speechless. After all, she couldn't possibly say she didn't trust Tang San, could she?

Indeed, upon hearing this, Xiao Wu's temper instantly vanished, but she couldn't help but fiercely curse the three of them in her heart, hoping they would be badly beaten when they went on stage later.

"If there are no surprises, Xiao San can take down this person in fifty rounds."

Yu Xiaogang spoke with a certain tone, as he understood Tang San's strength.

Xiao Wu's mood instantly improved upon hearing this, and she smiled as she looked at the stage below. The three others pretended not to hear, as they also had a basic understanding of Tang San's strength; winning wasn't an issue, but they didn't want to see Yu Xiaogang showing off.

Indeed, if there were no surprises, it was possible for Tang San to take him down in fifty rounds. However, because he didn't take a medicinal bath after yesterday's weighted run, there was a possibility of an accident occurring.

At this moment, Tang San below the stage was only one move away from taking down Purple Steel, but his right leg couldn't help but ache intensely for a breath.

This breath caused Tang San's speed to slow down, allowing Purple Steel to continue living. Purple Steel retaliated with a powerful punch that hit Tang San in the chest, sending him flying several meters and giving him a chance to catch his breath.

Tang San couldn't help but let out a muffled groan from this blow. Seeing this, Purple Steel pursued the victory and began to entangle with Tang San again.

At this time, Xiao Wu on the stage saw Tang San being hit and couldn't help but feel her heart clench. Ma Hongjun, Oscar, and Ning Rongrong, the three of them, looked at Yu Xiaogang with expressions of watching a good show.

Seeing this, Ma Hongjun spoke leisurely.

"Grandmaster, next time we fight, don't say anything about accidents or not. Your predictions are really too accurate."

Yu Xiaogang heard Ma Hongjun's words and again felt the implied insult. He suppressed it outwardly but was extremely displeased inwardly with the accident that happened to Tang San.

Zhao Wuji on the side couldn't say much either. After all, everything could only be said to be too coincidental.

Below the stage, after dozens more rounds, Tang San finally defeated Purple Steel and returned to the lounge (rest room) with his injuries.

Seeing this, Xiao Wu quickly went up with medicine. At the gesture of Zhao Wuji's eyes, Oscar also reluctantly handed his Sausage to Tang San.

At this moment, Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but speak, asking Tang San with an extremely dissatisfied tone.

"Xiao San, this mistake you made today is completely unacceptable. Don't you know how fatal such a mistake can be on the battlefield or when fighting Soul Beasts?"

Hearing this, Xiao Wu couldn't help but want to speak for Tang San, but Tang San interrupted Xiao Wu's action and couldn't help but honestly answer.

"Teacher, I'm sorry, during the last move, my right leg felt a sudden intense ache, and the aching became even more pronounced after I was knocked back a few meters."

Upon hearing Tang San's words, everyone couldn't help but turn their heads in unison to look at Yu Xiaogang. After all, there seemed to be only one reason for the ache, which was yesterday's weighted run, right?

The four students other than Tang San were mocking Yu Xiaogang's foolishness in their hearts.

Xiao Wu's face was even a little unpleasant.

Tang San only realized at this moment that he had accidentally told the truth and embarrassed his teacher.

Yu Xiaogang's face was full of embarrassment and he was stuck at this moment. After all, what could he say now? Just then, Flander returned with Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing.
