Chapter 18: Am I Caught Between You Two?
The more Yu Xiaogang spoke, the more excited and enthusiastic he became.
Precisely because Blue Silver Grass is weak, it is extremely stable, and mutations are extremely rare.
After hiding in this small border town for so many years, he finally made a new discovery.
As long as he can find that child and study him, he will be able to publish a new theory!
But Grandpa Matthew could not sympathize with him. He said expressionlessly, "No matter what you say, the Spirit Hall has its own rules. I will not disclose any information."
Yu Xiaogang suddenly became a little impatient: "No, this is a matter of great importance to the theoretical research of Soul Masters, you must tell me!"
As he spoke, he glanced at the ten books that Su Lin had just placed on the desk, and suddenly an idea flashed in his mind.
"According to the Spirit Hall's rules, you can't borrow books to read, right?"
He had tried it before and was rejected, so the impression was very deep.
Matthew's expression suddenly changed: "Are you threatening me?"
Yu Xiaogang seemed to feel that he had Matthew under control, and a smile broke out on his somewhat weathered and stiff face: "How could I, Yu Xiaogang, do such a thing? But... when I contact my friends, I always tell them everything..."
Although he said no, the threat was evident in his words.
However, Matthew sneered at this time: "Even if I broke the rules, so what? Little Su Lin is someone Her Highness the Saint values!"
Matthew was not worried at all. Would the higher-ups punish him for opening a back door for the talent that Her Highness the Saint paid attention to?
Her Highness the Saint?
Bibi Dong!
Yu Xiaogang was stunned for a moment, and endless thoughts flooded his mind.
But soon, he came to his senses.
With Bibi Dong's current status, how could she pay attention to such an ordinary child?
Unless…
What's so special about him?
Or maybe... this is a genius with innate full soul power!
Thinking of this, Yu Xiaogang's heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he felt a little hot.
Could it be that after waiting for so many years, he finally waited for a genius who could prove his theory!
The hope and desire in his heart overwhelmed his rationality. He stopped arguing with Matthew and forced a stiff but even uglier smile on his face. Then he looked at Su Lin: "Kid, what is your spirit? What is your innate soul power?"
Su Lin curled his lips: "Uncle, this has nothing to do with you."
Although this is not a secret, there is no need to talk about it.
But Yu Xiaogang became even more excited now and became more certain of his guess!
This child must be a genius with innate full soul power, otherwise why would Bibi Dong pay attention to him, and why would he hide it?
Even if not, the secret that Bibi Dong is paying attention to must be very big. Maybe there will be some new discoveries!
"Child, have you ever heard of my name?"
"Let me introduce myself first. I'm Yu Xiaogang, and everyone calls me Master. Among the Spirit Hall's collection of books is a book called 'The Ten Core Competencies of the Spirit,' which I published..."
Matthew had already come to Su Lin at this time: "Enough!"
"Little Su Lin has been noticed by Her Highness the Saint, Yu Xiaogang, are you trying to snatch him from my Spirit Hall?"
Yu Xiaogang's face turned pale, and he subconsciously took a half step back.
But the next second, his eyes became hot again—
What's so scary about Bibi Dong?
That woman has already broken his heart, she owes him this!
Yu Xiaogang strained his neck: "Even the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall... can't stop a genius from choosing a good teacher!"
His voice was particularly loud and firm as that of a fighter for justice who was not afraid of power.
What's going on?
Su Lin was a little confused about Yu Xiaogang's train of thought. Wasn't he just thinking about studying the so-called "new mutated spirit" he had discovered?
In the blink of an eye, he's going to accept him as a disciple?
"Uncle, you're not even afraid of the Holy Maiden of the Spirit Hall. You must be very powerful, right?"
Su Lin's face was filled with surprise: "Could it be that you are the legendary Titled Douluo!"
Yu Xiaogang suddenly looked embarrassed: "No... no."
Su Lin, however, was determined to get Yu Xiaogang to give up the idea immediately to avoid further trouble in the future. He continued in amazement, "That must be a Contra!"
"No way, not even a Contra. It doesn't matter, a Soul Sage is pretty powerful too!"
Yu Xiaogang's face turned pale and blue. He was born into a privileged family, but he only awakened a useless spirit with an innate soul power of level 0.5. He is still only a level 29 Great Soul Master.
Su Lin's words touched the most vulnerable and sensitive part of his heart.
Especially when he caught another glimpse of Matthew's face, which was trying to suppress his laughter, he felt even more ashamed.
But when he thought that this child was the one Bibi Dong cared about, he immediately resisted the urge to run away.
"Although my soul power level is only that of a Great Soul Master, my theoretical knowledge is unmatched in the world. With your talent, as long as I teach you, you will definitely become a world-renowned powerhouse in the future!"
My talent?
Su Lin was a little surprised: "Uncle, do you really know my talent?"
Yu Xiaogang smiled confidently, "Of course. To have received the attention of the Spirit Hall Saintess, even if you're not born with full soul power, you're definitely not far off. You're qualified to be my disciple!"
He believed that Bibi Dong had good taste!
So this is how you judge it?
For a moment, Su Lin's expression was almost out of control.
Bibi Dong was able to give the precious medicine, most likely because she misunderstood that he had some relationship with Yu Xiaogang... Yu Xiaogang also thought that he had some relationship with Bibi Dong?
It's outrageous!
Am I caught between you two?
As if he felt that what he had just said was not convincing enough, Yu Xiaogang hesitated for a moment, gritted his teeth, and untied the belt around his waist.
"This is a storage soul guide I obtained during an expedition with a friend in my early years. Each of the twenty-four gemstones inlaid on it holds a cubic meter of storage space. To say it's priceless is no exaggeration."
"How about this? As long as you become my disciple, I will give you this storage soul guide as a gift!"
Is this... the storage soul guide that was later given to Tang San and named Twenty-Four Bridges Moonlit Night?
Su Lin admitted that he was a little moved.
The storage soul guide that the Spirit Hall rewarded him with only had a cubic meter of space, but this thing had increased the space by twenty-four times.
But it is impossible to become Yu Xiaogang's disciple just for a storage soul guide.
"Uncle, you really guessed wrong."
There are other things to do, and Su Lin doesn't want to waste any more time.
He raised his hand lightly, and the Blue Silver Grass in his palm sparkled, but in just a moment, it was taken back.
"Wait!"
Su Lin thought that since his spirit had been revealed, Yu Xiaogang would not bother him anymore, but unexpectedly he became even more excited at this moment.
"The difference at the root..."
He rushed in front of Su Lin in one step, and even Matthew was unable to defend him in time.
"Kid, show me your spirit again, just once!"
This paranoid and fanatical look made Su Lin feel like he had become a research subject on a test bench.
"Grandpa Matthew..."
Su Lin chose to ask for help.
Matthew was also a little angry. After all, Yu Xiaogang was also a level 29 Soul Master. He didn't want to offend him too much, but this guy was so greedy.
"Yu Xiaogang, if you keep pestering, don't blame me for being rude!"
A faint halo enveloped Matthew's body, and it seemed that he could summon his spirit at any time.
"No…"
Yu Xiaogang suddenly became a little angry; he couldn't beat Matthew.
But the breakthrough of the new theory was right in front of him. In a hurry, he raised the belt in his hand again: "My child, your name is Su Lin, right? Show me your spirit again. It only takes a few minutes, and this storage soul guide will be given to you!"
Su Lin was stunned.
Is there such a good thing?
