He only trusts himself!
As for the opinions and thoughts of those he trusts and cares about,
do they matter?
Absolutely not!
Because the only person he trusts, cares about, and even loves is himself.
Those other figures are
merely subjective perceptions or objective fabrications.
Although in reality, many people can be matched with these figures,
seemingly becoming people Tang San cares about, with close connections between them, this is just a coincidence
.
Once an accident occurs ,
this fragile connection could completely collapse,
just like Tang San and Xiao Wu now—completely breaking off their relationship.
To give another interesting example—
when Tang San and Grandmaster went hunting the Mandragora Serpent,
they had already established a master-disciple relationship and formed a close bond.
At that time, Tang San even knelt down and kowtowed, treating his master as a father and vowing to be grateful to him for life.
This wasn't just talk;
it was Tang San's true thought at that time!
It was under these circumstances...
The master was injured by the Mandala Snake.
It was Tang San's hidden weapon that successfully killed the snake, saving his life.
However, this also meant there was a chance that Tang San would reveal his hidden weapon to the master.
Faced with this situation,
Tang San's first thought was to kill him to cover it up?
Although he immediately rejected the idea.
He didn't tell the truth but lied and pretended to be injured to hide it.
It is said that "a teacher for a day is a father for life."
—Those who understand this saying understand it.
Who can establish such a deep bond with their master upon first becoming his disciple?
Any relationship needs the tempering of time!
But Tang San was different—he truly believed it!
And he decided to treat the master like a father.
But in an emergency,
whether he wanted to kill him to cover it up or lie to him,
it all seemed extremely contradictory!
—Tang Hao: "Tsk, what are you saying?"
"A teacher for a day is a father for life..."
"Even if I were his real father, he never revealed anything about the Mysterious Heaven Skill to me!"
Indeed,
Tang Hao's various actions over the years did not deserve to be called a father.
—But don't forget, Tang San never cared.
He genuinely believed he shared a magical father-son bond with the other party!
…
His thoughts, actions, and even his behavior in special circumstances—
each was different, seemingly contradictory.
It can only be said that Tang San was indeed formidable in some ways—even Zhuge Lan would be utterly ashamed of himself.
He was deceiving himself before deceiving others.
He truly fooled himself first!
Only when faced with the crisis of his hidden weapons being exposed, the crisis of the Sunflower Manual,
and the immense temptation of Zhuge Lan's family,
would his true thoughts be completely revealed.
As for his usual thoughts,
even Tang San himself probably couldn't understand them.
It can only be said that
his selfishness to this extent—was truly terrifying!
…
Just like the current situation.
Although Tang San felt he
still had a certain teacher-student and brotherly bond with the people of Shrek Academy,
this was something
he would use to stand on moral high ground and point fingers at them after they provoked him,
not to restrict himself!
Tang San wouldn't share the rewards from the Dance King Competition—
"The combination of Ghostly Shadow Steps and dance
will definitely create an explosive effect... "
"Although there are still some shortcomings, I still have time."
"I will definitely be able to complete it!"
Tang San was very confident about this—although he knew that his Ghostly Shadow Steps couldn't compare to Zhuge Lan's Spiral Nine Shadows.
But a phoenix tail is still a phoenix!
Compared to the methods of other soul masters,
Ghostly Shadow Steps is still far, far superior...
"As long as Zhuge Lan doesn't deliberately target me—"
Thinking of this, Tang San felt a little guilty, his suspicious nature kicking in again.
But he quickly let it go.
Whatever!
At worst, he'd be shameless—he was already pretty thick-skinned anyway. If all else
failed, he
'd even have to beg Xiao Wu.
This Dance King Competition first place was definitely his!
—Xiao Wu: "I told you, sometimes you can't be too confident..."
Anyway, Tang San already considered the Dance King Competition championship a sure thing.
How could he possibly share the prize with anyone else?
Of course
, under normal circumstances, Tang San wouldn't recommend showing his generosity either
—after all, he could even fool himself…
But now, this prize was Tang San's hope of surpassing Zhuge Lan.
He absolutely couldn't let it go!
"However,"
"I still need to consider the academy's situation…"
Tang San pondered—
"After all, we're all so familiar with each other."
"I also need to do a good job with the teamwork required for the competition."
That's what he said.
But—
ultimately, he wanted to leave himself a safety net, a way out.
Or was he trying to use Zhuge Lan's high regard for Flander and the others to eliminate their targeting of him?
That remains to be seen!
Or perhaps Tang San genuinely wanted to help his brothers?
Heh…
…
On the other side of Xuanji Pavilion.
Dai Mubai, Oscar, and Ma Hongjun were still bickering and having a great time.
Many past unpleasantness and pain had gradually dissipated.
It could be said that without that little rascal causing trouble,
the atmosphere in their small team was quite cheerful.
As for Zhuge Lan—
they really wanted to accept him as a brother.
But there was no way.
He was just too capable of causing trouble.
Dai Mubai and the others both loved and feared him—
it was already good enough that they didn't tremble in fear when they saw him now.
They couldn't expect more.
…
In the distance.
Zhu Zhuqing watched these guys.
They started laughing as they talked, then started fighting. They
started laughing again as they fought,
then resumed chatting.
This kind of behavior really baffled Zhu Zhuqing.
Her beautiful eyes were filled with doubt—
"Could it be..."
"Is this what boys call brotherhood?"
"I don't understand... But, does Lan really like this feeling?"
"That's why she stopped me earlier..."
That's right. Zhu Zhuqing had already noticed
when those guys were plotting against the freshman. It wasn't that she was particularly perceptive—it was just that the way these guys were loudly conspiring was simply speechless! She had only listened in the shadows for a while, and the intelligent Zhu Zhuqing understood what was going on. This made her, who was usually aloof, angry, and her delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly— "These guys, they actually dared to plot against her Zhuge Lan..." How despicable! If it were just teasing, flirting with the freshman, or joking with them, Zhu Zhuqing wouldn't want to, and didn't have the energy to, care. She was naturally aloof and proud, although when facing Zhuge Lan, she would always melt into water, showing gentleness and tenderness. She was the perfect image of a good wife and mother—
