Compared to Oscar and the others, the situation was much worse for those in the dungeon.
Fearing another jailbreak, the warden split the people from Shrek Academy into pairs. The other teachers were also separated; Zhao Wuji and Flender were in one room, and the One-Eyed Fire Chicken and Yu Xiaogang were in another.
Yu Xiaogang was in a terrible situation. Two weeks prior, the One-Eyed Fire Chicken was already struggling to suppress his inner fire. The cold poison only made him more irritable, and Yu Xiaogang's constant chatter made him even angrier.
He immediately unleashed a flurry of punches. What right did a useless waste have to talk back to him?
Yu Xiaogang was already weak, relying solely on his words in a fight. With his Soul Power sealed, he couldn't even summon Luo Sanpao to fart twice before being exhausted. He was completely outmatched.
The One-Eyed Fire Chicken's anger flared. Ignoring the pleas of teachers Flender and Shao Xin, he beat Yu Xiaogang with fists and feet.
Poor Yu Xiaogang was easily defeated, unable to fight back at all. After all, he was just a Soul Grand Master, and he hadn't even reached his peak cultivation. Now, he had no chance to retaliate, left only to grieve in solitude.
Three weeks had already passed, and the one-eyed turkey, Ma Hongjun, who had initially harbored some resentment, had completely let loose. He was even more adept at beating up Yu Xiaogang.
Even in front of Flender, Ma Hongjun would carry on, and over time, Yu Xiaogang gradually became numb. Shao Xin also stopped speaking, and Flender, watching his old friend's misery, turned away helplessly, facing away from Yu Xiaogang.
He was powerless too; his cultivation had been sealed as well.
But the good news was that after Ma Hongjun went completely wild, the prison warden suddenly told them they were being released on bail and could leave today.
This immediately delighted the four, who had been feeling utterly despondent. Even Yu Xiaogang, who was hunched over on the ground, shed tears of happiness. Were they finally leaving?
Did you know how he had spent the last month? Pain had been eroding his body constantly, leaving him exhausted both physically and mentally.
Ma Hongjun would often punch and kick him, and his miserable life made each day feel like a year.
"Today is the day we get out."
Flender looked at the now-calm Ma Hongjun and said, "Hongjun, what happened between you and Xiaogang must not be spread after you leave here, or else…"
"I understand, Teacher."
Ma Hongjun had already fallen into self-degradation. He was now lying weakly on the bed. He was still a little happy to be getting out, as life in prison was truly terrible.
After all, he could find proper tools again.
"You all must not spread this either."
Flender knew that Yu Xiaogang valued his reputation greatly. If the word got out, Yu Xiaogang's personality would likely lead him to run away again, which would be troublesome.
So it was best to completely forget about this incident. No one would know.
As they were talking, a group of people suddenly walked out of the prison. The leader took out a string of keys, opened the door, and casually released the people from Shrek Academy.
"Alright, you can leave now," he urged impatiently.
As soon as the people from Shrek Academy left, they found Tang San and the others waiting there.
This time, Tang San pulled Xiao Fei forward. They chatted for a while, and Tang San also told the others from Shrek about Xiao Fei's background.
"Xiao San, you've worked hard these past few days."
Yu Xiaogang limped over to Tang San, tears in his eyes, and excitedly patted Tang San's shoulder.
Seeing Yu Xiaogang's dirty appearance, Tang San instinctively wanted to dodge, but considering that Yu Xiaogang was, after all, his teacher, he stopped himself and said humbly,
"I just had Baba go find Sect Master Ning. It was mainly because Rongrong pestered Sect Master Ning to help, that's how we were able to get out."
Yu Xiaogang didn't think so. After all, Ning Rongrong had spent a month trying, yet she couldn't get Ning Fengzhi to release them.
Tang Hao showed up, and Ning Fengzhi immediately agreed. Didn't this mean Ning Rongrong had no face? Or was it because of Tang Hao's Title?
"Xiao San, don't be humble. Rongrong tried for a month and couldn't get Sect Master Ning to help. If it weren't for you, we don't know how long we'd be locked up," Flender said.
The others echoed his sentiments. After all, who told them Tang Hao was around?
"Haha, it was all I should do," Tang San said, seemingly calm on the surface, but inwardly, he was ecstatic. This was the treatment he deserved. The past was nothing compared to this.
However, Ning Rongrong's expression wasn't so good. She was starting to have doubts, watching the Shrek Seven Devils sing Tang San's praises.
She felt a deep sense of despair. What was she doing? She had threatened her father and the two Grand Elders with starvation.
What was the point of her constantly pestering her father to bail out Shrek Academy? It turned out she was the clown.
Thinking of this, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but feel disheartened. But she still composed herself and comforted herself. These were her companions and teachers. It was okay. It was okay.
But he still felt a sliver of resentment in his heart, waiting for that dissatisfaction to slowly grow, and finally, to completely blow up Shrek Academy.
"By the way, someone from Bluedeath Academy sent a message to Dean Flender, asking us to go there. They're willing to take in our Shrek Academy."
On the way here, Tang San had been stopped by someone from Bluedeath Academy, who gave him a letter from Dean Liu Erlong to give to Flender and Yu Xiaogang.
"Alright, let's get ready and go to Bluedeath Academy."
Flender naturally knew who the dean of Bluedeath Academy was, but he didn't say it out loud, still afraid that Yu Xiaogang wouldn't be able to handle it and would run away again.
Tang San also knew about Liu Erlong's feelings for Yu Xiaogang, and he understood the situation perfectly, so he didn't say anything more.
But Dai Mubai was unbalanced. Tang San had found love, fine, but why did that useless waste get to eat soft food every day?
In his previous life, he had looked down on Yu Xiaogang, this useless waste who ate soft food all day long. He had no skills, yet he was arrogant all the time.
Now, why should he, Dai Mubai, be getting roughed up by those muscle-bound brutes? Meanwhile, Yu Xiaogang was out there and being pursued by Liu Erlong!
Dai Mubai felt that the heavens were truly blind.
"Alright, with Tang San and the others, plus Yu Tianheng, we have exactly seven people to form a team and participate in the Continental Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament in two years."
A rare smile appeared on Yu Xiaogang's originally expressionless, zombie-like face.
As long as Tang San and his team could participate in the Continental Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament and achieve a decent ranking, it would prove himself, proving that he wasn't useless.
Then everything he was enduring now would be worth it. He would train the new Shrek Seven Devils to become Title Douluos.
At that point, who would dare to call him a waste? He would be the most famous master on the continent.
But the Shrek Seven Devils all had innate Soul Power of level nine. Even if Yu Xiaogang didn't teach them, they would still become Title Douluos eventually.
"What does this have to do with you, Yu Xiaogang? Training someone with the potential of a Title Douluo to become one, is that something to be so proud of?"
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi, the old fox, also walked over. After all, he wanted to see if he could win over the people from Shrek. It wouldn't be a waste of his efforts to vouch for them.
"Greetings, Sect Master Ning. Thank you for your generous assistance. Shrek Academy is deeply grateful."
Flender was also a clever old man and had guessed Ning Fengzhi's intentions.
He couldn't help but sneer inwardly. You still want to poach our people? What a joke. Once you join Shrek, you belong to Shrek for life.
He still came to recruit their people? Your own daughter is already one of us, and when Ning Rongrong takes over the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Shrek will inevitably rise.
Ning Fengzhi also said gently:
"It was just a small matter. Seeing that you are all young talents, I, Ning, also have a heart for talent and do not want these young heroes to waste their time in prison."
