Chereads / Douluo: The Way Of Martial Arts / Chapter 22 - Chapter 22: Farce

Chapter 22 - Chapter 22: Farce

Star Dou Great Forest.

As Gu Yi walked out, he happened to encounter a group of people from the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy who were absorbing spirit rings. The one absorbing the spirit ring was none other than Dugu Yan.

Gu Yi didn't deliberately conceal his presence, so he was immediately spotted by the vigilant Qin Ming.

"Who's there? Show yourself!" Qin Ming directly summoned his martial spirit, extremely wary. Years of struggle had heightened his vigilance to an extremely high level. With Qin Ming's shout, the others also summoned their martial spirits one after another.

"Don't be nervous, everyone. I'm just passing by and mean no harm," Gu Yi walked out, indicating that he had no ill intentions and didn't summon his martial spirit.

"My student is still absorbing the spirit ring. Please keep your distance and don't cause any misunderstandings," Qin Ming didn't retract his martial spirit because of Gu Yi's words. No one knew if what he said was true.

"I understand that," Gu Yi looked at their martial spirit configurations and made some guesses, especially after seeing the lightning and dragon scales on Yu Tianheng's body after his martial spirit transformation. There was no doubt that this he was a member of one of the Three Upper Sects, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. And there was also a veiled girl holding a begonia flower in her hand, very eye-catching, undoubtedly the Nine-Hearted Begonia martial spirit. With this combination, Gu Yi could only think of one academy: the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.

As for this Martial Spirit, the Infernal Grey Wolf, it belonged to the first graduate of Shrek Academy, Qin Ming. Gu Yi never expected to encounter such important figures in such a short time. Gu Yi glanced at the purple-haired girl surrounded by everyone, absorbing a poisonous snake spirit beast. She must be Dugu Yan.

Gu Yi wasn't particularly curious about the others. But it was this Dugu Yan who caught his attention, not only because she had the titled Douluo Dugu Bo and a treasure land behind her. More importantly, she was poisoned. As a descendant of traditional Chinese medicine, Gu Yi naturally found such complex conditions very interesting. Being able to move freely despite being highly poisoned. If he could study it well, perhaps his understanding of the human body would reach a higher level.

Gu Yi's exploratory gaze was directly noticed by Ye Lingling, who was standing next to Dugu Yan. "This guy has a problem. He's looking at Sister Yan with bad intentions," Ye Lingling didn't understand what exploration meant and just thought Gu Yi was looking at Dugu Yan with lustful eyes.

Qin Ming's reaction was the fastest. His first spirit skill lit up, his muscles became even more robust, and he arrived next to Gu Yi in three or two steps. His right hand suddenly grabbed towards Gu Yi, with extremely fast speed. The attack of a Spirit Emperor wasn't something that could be easily resisted. Even Gu Yi didn't dare to face it head-on and could only dodge with his agility. While dodging, Gu Yi didn't understand why he was targeted. Next was Yu Tianheng. He had long regarded Dugu Yan as his woman, even if Dugu Yan hadn't agreed yet.

"Teacher Qin Ming, let me help you," Yu Tianheng rushed up, determined to teach Gu Yi a lesson. 

Gu Yi's eyes became sharp, and just at this moment, Yu Tianheng also came over, so Gu Yi naturally wouldn't miss such a good opportunity. Stepping out with his left foot, spirit power attached to his hand, he directly grabbed Yu Tianheng's dragon claw, deftly removing his strength and lightly twisted to bring him down. The situation instantly reversed! Qin Ming didn't expect Gu Yi's reaction to be so quick during the blink of an eye. Not only did he evade his attack, but he also captured Yu Tianheng.

How strong is this guy?

"Stop it! Can you listen to what I have to say?" Yu Tianheng struggled continuously, but Gu Yi's hand was as firm as steel, not moving at all. Not on the same level.

"Qin Ming, he just called you Qin Ming, right?" Gu Yi was worried about how could he recognize this senior, and Yu Tianheng's cry actually helped him. With Yu Tianheng in Gu Yi's hands, Qin Ming didn't move.

Although he didn't know why he asked this question, Qin Ming still answered, "Yes, I am Qin Ming."

"I didn't expect it to be really you, Senior Qin Ming. Dean Flender even told us that you were his best student," Gu Yi said as he released Yu Tianheng. Yu Tianheng, freed from the restraint, still wanted to act, but he was directly deprived of his strength and flew out, falling flat on his face.

When Gu Yi mentioned Dean Flender, Qin Ming relaxed his vigilance. "Are you a student of Shrek Academy?"

"Yes, I am," Gu Yi replied. Yu Tianheng, now getting up from the ground with a face full of dirt, became even more irritable with lightning raging around him. The first and second spirit rings lit up one after another, preparing for a surprise attack from behind.

Qin Ming noticed Yu Tianheng's intention to attack and shouted, "Tianheng, stop!" Although Yu Tianheng didn't understand why Qin Ming stopped him, he still obeyed and retracted his spirit skills reluctantly, casting a resentful glance at Gu Yi.

"Although you are a student of Shrek Academy, please stay away a bit while I understand the situation," Qin Ming said, not completely trusting Gu Yi just because he was from Shrek Academy. He then turned to Ye Lingling and asked, "Ye Lingling, why do you think he's up to no good?"

"His eyes, they seem like they want to devour Sister Yan. I've encountered those pampered young masters from Heaven Dou City before, and they all had the same lustful eyes towards Sister Yan and me. So, I'm quite sensitive," Ye Lingling explained straightforwardly. With Qin Ming by her side, Ye Lingling wasn't afraid and revealed the truth.

Gu Yi, who had taken a few steps back, couldn't sit still after hearing Ye Lingling's words. He never expected that just a glance could lead her to such conclusions. Comparing me to those pampered young masters from Heaven Dou City is underestimating me. I have always been pure and untouched, except for accidentally hitting Qian Renxue. I have never been involved with women.

"Miss, please understand the situation. My gaze is one of exploration and research, not lustful," Gu Yi explained, but not only did Ye Lingling still look at him suspiciously, even Qin Ming took a few steps back. So, not only do you want to look, but also wanted to study and explore.

Even with Qin Ming's order in front of him, Yu Tianheng couldn't hold back. The third spirit ring lit up, and lightning erupted around him, leaving scorch marks on the ground. Gu Yi suddenly turned around, and lightning transformed in his hand as well, but it was not as powerful as Yu Tianheng's, only covering his hands with lightning. The dragon claw clashed with the arm, and both took three steps back.

Gu Yi looked down at his palm and thought, "Looks like I still need to do some research."

"Senior Qin Ming, you've misunderstood. When I mentioned research and exploration, I didn't mean it in the way you think. I meant it as a serious medical study. She has a problem with her body, and I am a healer," Gu Yi clashed with Yu Tianheng again, the lightning in his hand becoming stronger. At the same time, he addressed Qin Ming and the others. Qin Ming was now about seventy to eighty percent convinced, not only by Gu Yi's words but also by his trust in his alma mater. Shrek Academy wouldn't educate someone despicable.

"Tianheng, stop. If he really has a problem, the teacher will take care of him personally." Despite Yu Tianheng's indignation, the farce finally came to an end.
