Shrek Academy.
A slender young man with blue hair looked up at the sign of Shrek Academy.
After a year of trials and tribulations, Tang San had finally returned to the academy.
His expression was complex.
He was finally going to see his teacher again.
As he approached, memories of the past flooded his mind.
After experiencing so much outside, he was now certain that his teacher truly had his best interests at heart.
Thus, he wanted to discuss the matter of inheriting the god's position with his teacher.
He entered the academy.
Familiar with the route, he quickly arrived at Yu Xiaogang's residence.
Knock, knock!
With a heart full of excitement, he knocked on Yu Xiaogang's door.
Soon,
The door opened.
"Who are you?"
Yu Xiaogang looked at the blue-haired, slender young man with curiosity.
There was something familiar about him,
But his appearance seemed new.
"Teacher, it's me, Xiao San..."
As soon as Tang San saw Yu Xiaogang, he couldn't help but kneel down with a thud, tears streaming down his face.
"Xiao San!?"
Yu Xiaogang's eyes widened.
This person was his disciple, Tang San?
Yu Xiaogang was skeptical.
Had his disciple undergone cosmetic surgery?
"Teacher, it's really me, Tang San!"
Tang San feared Yu Xiaogang wouldn't believe him, so he immediately summoned his two martial spirits.
"It's really you, Xiao San! You're alright!"
Yu Xiaogang was overjoyed.
Back in Spirit City, Tang Hao had suddenly attacked Qian Xunji.
In the end, they were crushed by Su Bai, and he hadn't seen Tang San in over a year, thinking he was dead.
Without Tang San, Yu Xiaogang felt he had lost the opportunity to have Su Bai evolve his martial spirit.
But now, Tang San had returned.
Yu Xiaogang was ecstatic. He helped Tang San up, saying with relief, "It's good you're back, it's good you're back!"
"Teacher!"
The two shared a heartfelt reunion.
After some time catching up,
Tang San finally revealed his current purpose.
He told Yu Xiaogang about meeting the Sin God and the requirement to castrate himself to inherit the god's position.
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang was elated.
He hadn't forgotten Su Bai's promise.
If he could satisfactorily torture Tang San, Su Bai would help him evolve his martial spirit.
He had thought Tang San was dead,
So he had lost hope and was despondent for a while.
But unexpectedly, Tang San had returned,
And brought such 'good news.'
This was a blessing.
Nothing could please Su Bai more than seeing Tang San castrate himself.
Yu Xiaogang believed that Su Bai would be very satisfied and would help him evolve his martial spirit.
Thinking of this, Yu Xiaogang became excited.
But outwardly, he remained calm, pretending to ponder.
Then he said seriously, "Xiao San, I think you should agree to the god's request and inherit the god's position."
He turned around, hands behind his back, and said slowly, "You must understand, in Douluo Continent, strength is paramount. Without strength, you can only be bullied."
"I won't say more, but if I had such an opportunity, I would seize it firmly. Only strength is truly yours."
Yu Xiaogang's words, half true and half false,
Were very convincing.
Indeed,
Tang San felt it made sense.
He had been bullied by Su Bai many times due to his lack of strength.
Even in the Slaughter City, he was humiliated because of his weakness.
Everything stemmed from his lack of strength.
If he could inherit the god's position, it would change everything.
Even his destined woman could be reclaimed.
Strength!
Tang San decided to castrate himself that night.
So, he respectfully bid farewell to Yu Xiaogang and left.
However,
At noon, Tang San had some additional questions for Yu Xiaogang.
So he returned to Yu Xiaogang's room.
Yu Xiaogang wasn't there, but on his desk, Tang San found a diary.
Curious, Tang San opened it.
As he read, his face turned pale.
The diary detailed how Yu Xiaogang had tortured him.
Every day, every method, every location was recorded meticulously.
There were even recent entries about persuading him to castrate himself.
The truth was revealed.
Tang San was in disbelief.
After being tortured by Tang Hao, he had always believed Yu Xiaogang had his best interests at heart.
But now, it was clear that Yu Xiaogang had been deliberately torturing him.
All the talk of doing it for his own good was just an excuse to justify the abuse.
His suspicions were confirmed.
"Tang San, what are you doing!"
Yu Xiaogang had returned and saw Tang San holding the diary. His face changed immediately.
Tang San looked at Yu Xiaogang coldly.
Sigh!
Yu Xiaogang sighed, "It seems you know everything."
"Why?"
Tang San asked coldly.
Since becoming his disciple, he had always respected Yu Xiaogang, obeying his every command.
Even though his soul power was higher, he still showed immense respect.
He treated him like a father.
He couldn't understand why Yu Xiaogang had done this.
Sigh!
Now that the truth was out, Yu Xiaogang knew he couldn't hide it anymore and smiled bitterly, "Xiao San, don't blame me. People have selfish desires. I did it for the evolution of my martial spirit."
Upon hearing this,
Tang San fell silent.
After a long while,
He put down the diary.
Without a word, he turned and left, not sparing Yu Xiaogang a glance.
His departing figure was filled with sorrow.
...
At Yuexuan.
An uninvited guest arrived.
A green-haired, green-clothed elder.
It was Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo.
A Title Douluo had arrived, so Tang Yuehua had to step forward.
But she felt very uneasy.
Although Su Bai had promised to handle the situation, seeing Poison Douluo in person made her nervous.
"Who killed him?"
Dugu Bo asked directly upon meeting.
Tang Yuehua's face changed slightly.
She hadn't expected Dugu Bo to be so straightforward.
She quickly shook her head, "I don't know what you mean, Your Excellency."
"The last place he went was Yuexuan, where he had a conflict with someone."
Dugu Bo continued.
He stared at Tang Yuehua, "He harassed you multiple times, making you very uncomfortable. So, you had someone kill him."
With just a few sentences, he accused Tang Yuehua.
As expected of a Title Douluo, his pressure was immense.
Tang Yuehua's face was bitter.
However, it made sense. After all, Su Bai had stood up for Yuexuan.
Taking the blame for Su Bai was reasonable.
She had decided to take the fall.
"Your Excellency is correct. It was..."
"Hold on, Dugu Bo, you're quite bold!"
Before Tang Yuehua could take the blame, a cold voice came from outside.
