—------------------—
But Tang San is his most valued disciple and his only hope to prove his theory.
Moreover, Tang San's father was Tang Hao, the Titled Douluo who had dared to challenge even the Spirit Hall. He simply couldn't afford to offend him. If he held Tang San responsible, not only would he lose this "future formidable" disciple, he might even invite revenge from Tang Hao.
All the anger, grievances, and despair had to be swallowed back into the stomach in the end.
Yu Xiaogang clenched his fists tightly, his nails digging deep into his palms, and blood dripped through his fingers.
After a long while, he finally let out a low growl like a trapped animal, his voice full of resentment:
"Xue Tianxing! It's all that bastard Xue Tianxing's fault! If it weren't for him, how could I have ended up like this!"
He could only vent all his hatred on Xue Tianxing, as if this could alleviate his humiliation and pain.
Tang San looked at Yu Xiaogang's desperate expression, and the guilt in his heart overwhelmed him like a tide.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end all he could say was a hoarse "Teacher, I'm sorry..."
Flanders looked at the scene in front of him and sighed helplessly.
He knew that after this incident, Yu Xiaogang's heart would probably never be the same as before.
Yu Xiaogang slumped on the bed, the severe pain in his lower body still lingering, but the strange atmosphere in the room made him instantly tense.
He swept his eyes over the crowd and quickly noticed something was wrong - Xiao Wu, who used to be chattering and full of energy around Tang San, was now like a frightened rabbit, hiding behind Tang San, her hands tightly grasping the corners of Tang San's clothes, her head buried very low, even her breathing was trembling with caution, and she didn't dare to say a single extra word.
What made him even more frightened was that Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing and others' eyes were almost glued to Xiao Wu.
Dai Mubai had a faint smile on his lips, and his eyes were filled with undisguised greed, as if he was sizing up a rare treasure.
Although Zhu Zhuqing still had a cold face, she could not hide the desire deep in her eyes, and her fingers were rubbing unconsciously.
Even teachers like Zhao Wuji and Lu Qibin, who were usually quite calm, couldn't take their eyes off Xiao Wu, their Adam's apples rolling, and it was obvious that they were interested in her.
As the center of public opinion in Douluo Continent today, how could the people of Shrek Academy not have heard those rumors?
Regarding the news that Tang San possesses the twin martial spirits of the Clear Sky Hammer, everyone may just be amazed at his talent, and also amazed that Tang San is actually the son of Clear Sky Douluo Tang Xiao.
But when the rumor that "Xiao Wu is the incarnation of a hundred thousand year old soul beast" spread, no one could resist the temptation.
What does a hundred thousand year soul beast mean?
It is a treasure that can directly create a Titled Douluo with a hundred thousand year spirit ring and spirit bones. It is an opportunity that countless spirit masters cannot obtain in their entire lives.
Everyone present knew too well the value behind this rarity.
Zhao Wuji stroked his rough palms, his heart already filled with turmoil, and he was even thinking about taking action.
In his opinion, with his strength as a level 76 strong attack spirit saint, it would be easy for him to defeat the immature Tang San and kill the seemingly weak Xiao Wu.
Even if you can't absorb this soul ring, getting a hundred thousand year soul bone is still a big win.
Even if the news turned out to be false, killing an ordinary spirit master girl would be nothing more than a harmless matter to him. At most, he would be scolded by Flanders.
But as soon as this thought came to his mind, he suppressed it, because he also knew that Tang San and Xiao Wu had been inseparable since they entered school.
Tang Hao was able to kill the former Pope of the Spirit Hall for his family. If he dared to make a move, he would not just be beaten up like last time.
And even if Tang Hao had never met Xiao Wu in person, he must have observed her in secret countless times.
If Xiao Wu was really the incarnation of a hundred thousand year old soul beast, how could Tang Hao let her stay in Shrek defenselessly?
This is clearly the "reserve soul ring" that Tang Hao specially left for Tang San, waiting for Tang San to use when he breaks through the bottleneck in the future.
Yu Xiaogang's expression also gradually changed.
After the initial shock faded, uncontrollable greed crept onto his face, and his eyes were fixed on Xiao Wu as if they were real.
Yu Xiaogang was calculating frantically in his mind:
If Xiao Wu is really the incarnation of a hundred thousand year old soul beast, then Tang Hao must have carefully arranged her to be by Tang San's side.
His disciple not only has innate full soul power, but also possesses the twin martial spirits of Blue Silver Grass and Clear Sky Hammer. Now he even has a 100,000-year-old soul beast as an "exclusive reserve". This talent is simply the son of God!
He seemed to have seen that in the future, when Tang San broke through to the Titled Douluo, he would absorb Xiao Wu's spirit ring and spirit bone, and with a swing of the Clear Sky Hammer, he would be able to sweep across the continent and be invincible.
As his enlightenment teacher, I will be revered as the "God of Theory" by the entire Douluo Continent, and those who once laughed at him and questioned him will bow down before him.
The atmosphere in the room became increasingly solemn, and everyone's gazes were like countless needles, pricking Xiao Wu and causing her to tremble even more violently.
Tang San sensed something was wrong and subconsciously protected Xiao Wu more closely. He frowned and looked at everyone vigilantly. His soul power was surging around him, and he was ready to take action at any time.
Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang suddenly cleared his throat, breaking the eerie silence.
He suppressed his greed, deliberately slowed down his tone, and spoke with a certain unquestionable majesty:
"All of you, stop staring. Xiao Wu isn't some incarnation of a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast. Back then, Clear Sky Douluo Tang Hao had secretly seen Xiao Wu many times. If she really was a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast, why would he let her stay in a place like Shrek? He would have killed her long ago."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room was stunned, and then their eyes gradually became clear.
Dai Mubai's clenched fists slowly loosened - yes, with the evil spirit Tang Hao around, even if Xiao Wu was really a hundred thousand-year-old soul beast, it was not their turn to get involved. Acting rashly would only bring disaster upon themselves.
Zhao Wuji also secretly breathed a sigh of relief, completely dispelling the idea in his mind, took half a step back, and avoided Xiao Wu's direction.
Everyone understood that although Yu Xiaogang's words seemed to be defending Xiao Wu, they were actually a subtle warning - even if Xiao Wu was really the incarnation of a 100,000-year-old soul beast, that was something that Haotian Douluo Tang Hao left to Tang San. Anyone who dared to have any bad intentions would be making an enemy of Tang Hao.
Xiao Wu raised her head from behind Tang San and looked at Yu Xiaogang with a complex look of gratitude and uneasiness in her eyes.
Yu Xiaogang leaned against the head of the bed, looking at Tang San protecting Xiao Wu, with a hidden smile on his lips - as long as Tang San can grow smoothly, as long as his theory can be thoroughly proved through Tang San, and when Tang San becomes the strongest man on the continent, he, Yu Xiaogang, will naturally be able to hold his head high and let everyone look up to him.
