"Ah? Teacher, leaving the academy? Why, did Dai Mubai upset you again?"
When Tang San heard Master's determination to leave the academy, he was immediately puzzled and asked.
What on earth is the teacher up to now!
"I haven't upset your teacher. It was your teacher who made things unpleasant for himself,"
Right at that moment, Dai Mubai shrugged his shoulders at Tang San.
After all, it was the teacher himself who had nothing better to do than criticize the peers who were being promoted within the academy.
Now, being promoted to a Level 50 Soul King could be said to be very powerful, and one could easily be a teacher at a regular academy.
But this Master disparaged him as worthless.
The key point is, if you had reached that level, I, Dai Mubai, would have nothing to say.
But you are not of that level.
And you kept nagging constantly.
This is really annoying!
"This..."
Tang San was even more bewildered, his small eyes looking at Master.
He wanted to hear the teacher's explanation!
"Xiaosan, let me ask you, if I really decide to leave now, would you or would you not go with me?"
Master looked at Tang San with a very firm attitude.
Today, he had to teach Shrek and everyone present a lesson!
"Teacher, I am your student. If you decide to leave, of course, I will go with you. I just want to know why. After all, we can't just leave for no reason at all!"
Tang San had just been immersed in his own cultivation world and had no idea what had happened outside.
Seeing his teacher's determined attitude to leave, he was even more confused.
"Grind the donkey that's outlived his usefulness—this place is not worth our while, let's go!!"
Master didn't look back as he walked outside.
He knew that his disciple Tang San would definitely follow him.
And Xiaowu, now seemingly Tang San's sister on the surface, had already moved beyond a brother-sister relationship with him.
If Xiaosan decided to leave, Xiaowu would definitely follow him.
With two from Shrek gone, the team was essentially gutted.
If they could manage to place in the top five in the upcoming competition, it would be a stroke of luck!
Yu Xiaogang intended to give them a wake-up call this time.
Let them know that if a tiger doesn't show his power, they will treat him as a sick cat!
But he didn't want to be merciless.
At least not until the Continental Senior Soul Master competition was over.
Because he too needed this competition to prove himself.
His disciples' spots were at Shrek Academy, and it wasn't possible to go to some other academy.
According to his calculations,
Flander, driven by self-interest, would definitely look for him privately.
Then he could seize the opportunity to lay down some terms.
Make Flander come begging to his door thrice, then he would lead his disciples out to help Shrek Academy claim the championship.
Yu Xiaogang was ultimately a man who used his brains; he had already thought through his plans.
"Ah, this... Xiaowu..."
Watching his teacher leave decisively without a moment's hesitation or a backward glance, Tang San turned to look in Xiaowu's direction.
His intention was clear.
If the teacher was leaving, and since Xiaowu was his woman, then he naturally had to take her with him.
He couldn't leave her here alone.
"Hmm?"
Xiaowu's gaze at Tang San carried a hint of confusion.
"Xiaowu, since teacher is leaving, let's leave Shrek Academy too. As for our belongings, just leave them here; we can buy new ones later," Tang San said to Xiaowu.
He had enough money on hand to purchase necessities for living.
So it was best to just leave right away.
Besides, the teacher was already making his way toward the school gates, and there wasn't time to go back and pack.
"Heh, you follow him. I won't leave Shrek Academy,"
Upon hearing this, Xiaowu scoffed.
Her demeanor was very determined.
She liked Xiaosan but not the Master.
Moreover, it was the Master who started the trouble today.
Second Dragon's mother, the academy, including Dai Mubai, were not at fault.
If she left, how could she fight in the upcoming Continental Senior Soul Master competition?
They had already lost Zhu Zhuqing, and now Tang San was leaving; what would become of the academy if she left too?
She certainly didn't think she could turn the tides.
She just wanted to do her utmost to win a good place for the academy.
"Ah? Xiaowu, aren't you leaving with the teacher?"
Tang San was surprised.
He hadn't expected Xiaowu to stay behind.
This was beyond his expectations.
"Not following! If you really want to go with him, just go!"
Xiaowu answered with certainty.
Following the Master away? She'd be crazy to do such a thing.
"This... since the teacher's orders are absolute, then Xiaowu, I'll leave first. Once I find a place to stay, I'll let you know,"
Tang San pondered for two seconds before turning to leave, his eyes filled with sadness.
He had thought Xiaowu would be willing to follow him.
But to his bewilderment, Xiaowu didn't want to follow him at all.
Perhaps the teacher had caused too much trouble lately.
Indeed, the teacher had been quite trying during this period.
Sometimes, he was also quite sensitive.
But after all, the man was his teacher. Back at Nuoding Junior College, the teacher had given him a blanket so he wouldn't be cold in winter, and later, he had given him meals so he wouldn't be hungry.
One could say he owed the teacher a debt of gratitude.
He absolutely couldn't become someone who was ungrateful and disloyal.
