"Now that everyone is here, let's begin!"
At this moment, Flanders spoke slowly.
Yu Xiaogang had already arrived, so Tang San must be right behind him.
The voice, shrouded in spirit power, reached the ears of everyone present clearly.
Everyone's eyes flicked to Flanders in the center, their faces etched with curiosity.
Sure enough, Flanders spoke.
Yu Xiaogang also hurried over, fearing he had missed something important.
"First, let me formally introduce a new student to the academy."
Here, Flanders paused.
Then he pointed at Yu Xiaogang standing nearby and said,
"I'm sure you've all heard a little recently. This student is none other than Master Shi's disciple."
"His name is Tang San, his spirit is Blue Silver Grass, and he's a Level 28 Control Spirit Master."
Hearing this, everyone's faces fell into a state of speechlessness.
What's all this talk about?
Everyone knows Tang San, but so far, no one who has come into contact with him, except Yu Xiaogang, has ever developed a favorable impression of him.
Instead, Yu Xiaogang, who had approached, curled his lips into a faint smile and led the applause.
His disciple, Tang San, had officially become a student of Shrek Academy.
As his master, it was natural for him to lead the charge in support.
"From now on, he will participate in the academy's teaching activities with the other students!"
"At the same time, Master will also become a formal teacher at Shrek Academy."
Hearing this, Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun glanced at Yu Xiaogang, who was not far away.
At the same time, Zhao Wuji and Li Yusong also glanced at Yu Xiaogang.
Though these movements were subtle, Flanders keenly noticed them.
Seemingly sensing a jarring atmosphere, he quickly explained,
"Don't worry, everyone. I'll still be in charge of the overall teaching responsibilities at the academy."
"Master Yu Xiaogang will be staying at the academy for a long time."
"If anyone is interested in martial spirit theory or has questions, please consult Master privately."
"He will not be involved in normal teaching."
Hearing this, Dai Mubai breathed a sigh of relief.
If Yu Xiaogang were to teach him, he might as well drop out.
Look at Tang San's current annoyance.
While that's partly due to his worthless spirit, the Blue Silver Grass,
But it's also largely due to Yu Xiaogang being useless.
He's simply teaching everyone a worthless person.
Who the hell could stand that?
Zhao Wuji and Li Yusong's expressions also eased slightly.
They absolutely disliked Yu Xiaogang.
Tang San was fine; he was just a student.
If he didn't want to teach, he could just ignore him.
But if Yu Xiaogang became a teacher on equal footing with them...
He'd constantly be giving them orders.
What the hell is this "invincible labor theory"?
What teacher could accept that? Looking back at them, Yu Xiaogang's expression was truly remarkable.
As the sky gradually darkened, his face, already extremely unpleasant, only appeared slightly gloomy.
Although Flanders didn't say it explicitly, the implication was damn obvious.
He directly distanced Yu Xiaogang from Shrek Academy.
He meant that everyone shouldn't worry; the students wouldn't let that fellow harm them.
As for the suggestion that they could consult privately later, that was purely polite.
He was giving Yu Xiaogang a little face, so he wouldn't lose his temper in public.
After all, it wasn't surprising that someone so different from normal people would do anything.
Seeing the atmosphere return to normal, Flanders smiled with satisfaction.
As for Yu Xiaogang, whose face was green, he simply ignored him.
"Master, why hasn't Tang San come yet?"
"What I'm about to say is very relevant to him."
"Didn't I tell you yesterday to ask him to come along?"
At this moment, Flanders frowned and looked at Yu Xiaogang.
It was obvious that he thought Tang San had stayed with him last night.
They should have come together.
"Huh?"
However, Flanders' question left Yu Xiaogang completely bewildered.
He only then realized that Tang San wasn't standing among the other students.
You ask me, who should I ask?
"I told Tang San to go back to the student dormitory last night. Why didn't he come?"
Yu Xiaogang asked directly.
"Dean, when I woke up this morning, Tang San wasn't in the dormitory anymore."
At this moment, Oscar stepped forward and spoke slowly.
When he went to bed yesterday, Tang San was still lying in bed.
When he woke up today, he found him gone.
Originally, Oscar had thought Tang San had gone to look for his beloved master.
But now, it seemed more complicated than that.
"Hiss!"
"This..."
"This is interesting!"
Everyone was buzzing with discussion.
No one present knew where Tang San had gone.
"Maybe he went to the restroom?"
Someone in the crowd muttered.
Flanders waved his hand impatiently.
"Time is running out, so we won't wait for him."
"Master, please search the academy for him later. And, by the way, tell Tang San what I'm going to say next."
Yu Xiaogang nodded.
His expression was remarkably calm.
Tang San was such a grown man.
How could he possibly get lost?
He knew Tang San had a habit of waking up early to practice.
Perhaps he was annoyed by the crowds in the academy.
He had found a quiet spot to practice and would be back soon.
He could never have guessed it.
Tang San was currently working as a laborer at Zuihualou in Suoto City.
Last night, he had spent ten gold soul coins on a first-class service.
Though the quality wasn't particularly good,
Tang San was still very satisfied.
But just as he was about to leave and return to Shrek Academy under the cover of night,
Two burly men with soul powers exceeding level 30 stood before him.
They told Tang San that the service they had received was worth one hundred gold soul coins.
He needed to pay another ninety gold soul coins.
Only then did Tang San realize he'd been set up!
But he had no money to pay.
And he couldn't fight back.
After a few arguments, he was beaten up.
Then he was assigned to clean the restrooms of the Zuixian Building.
Tang San was now completely despairing.
He had never imagined he'd encounter such a thing.
Trapped in Zuihua Building, unable to escape!!!
Elsewhere, Flanders looked at the Shrek students and slowly said,
"Starting tomorrow, all seven of you..."
"Uh, eight, eight students will enter the second phase of training."
"Completely abandon theory and enter actual combat to accumulate experience."
At the word "theory," Yu Xiaogang, who was not far away, nearly exploded.
Isn't this just going against him?
He felt as if Flanders was targeting him everywhere.
