"Old Li, we've been brothers for over ten years, can't you just say what you have to say all at once? You're driving me crazy!"
Li Yusong stopped beating around the bush and spoke up.
"I didn't fight that guy before, but it's not that I didn't try, it's that I didn't even touch him..."
Zhao Wuji said casually.
"What?! He's fast? Watch me, Old Zhao, I'll use a tracking move to beat the crap out of him!"
Flander frowned, glared at Zhao Wuji, and after Zhao Wuji obediently shut up, looked back at Li Yusong.
"Old Li, continue."
"That guy wasn't just fast, he disappeared instantly! Right under my nose, less than two meters away, I was watching him closely, and he just vanished in a flash! Then he silently reappeared in another place."
Zhao Wuji fell silent. He, Old Zhao, had never heard of anyone who could disappear in a flash. Could it be another Title Douluo?
As Li Yusong's brother of over ten years, Flander knew him too well. A level 66 Soul Power, even under complete concentration, and he couldn't even catch a glimpse of his opponent? That kind of strength was probably more than a Soul Saint; at the very least, it was at the low-level Soul Douluo level.
However, Li Yusong continued,
"But the other party doesn't seem to have any ill intentions towards Shrek Academy; they're just here to cause trouble for Grandmaster..."
Zhao Wuji breathed a sigh of relief. Although he was reckless, he wasn't stupid. He knew who he could mess with and who he couldn't. Someone like the one Li Yusong described—who sounded like a dangerous person—was best left alone.
Besides, what was Yu Xiaogang anyway? What did it matter to him, Old Zhao, if someone was causing him trouble? He always acted like a reclusive master with his hands behind his back, but in reality, he was a useless piece of trash who couldn't even break through to level 30, yet he always acted like he owned the place in the academy...
Just as Zhao Wuji was about to turn and leave, Flander reprimanded him.
"What do you mean you have no ill will towards Shrek? Isn't Xiaogang one of us? Now that someone's causing him trouble, how can we just sit idly by?"
Zhao Wuji was stunned, and had to retract his foot that had just stepped out. He was about to say something to Flander when Yu Xiaogang, who had heard the commotion, came over.
"Flander, what happened?"
Tang San and the others also looked over after Yu Xiaogang passed by.
Before Flander could speak, Zhao Wuji couldn't help but blurt out.
"What else could it be? Your enemies have come to Shrek's doorstep..."
"Old Zhao!"
Zhao Wuji was interrupted by Flander's reprimand before he could finish speaking. Zhao Wuji
had no choice but to shut his mouth sheepishly, but still glared at Yu Xiaogang with displeasure.
Seemingly afraid that Zhao Wuji's words would affect Yu Xiaogang, Flander spoke up.
"Xiao Gang, don't worry too much. There must be some misunderstanding. We'll go with you to take a look…"
Yu Xiaogang frowned. Enemies? What enemies? He, a Great Soul Master, spends his days in a small place like Notting City. What enemies could he possibly have?
However, after hearing Flander's words, Yu Xiaogang could only nod in agreement.
Tang San and the others, hearing the commotion, also came forward to ask what was going on. After learning that someone had come to cause trouble, they all said they would go along to see what was happening.
…
In less than a quarter of an hour, Flander, Zhao Wuji, Yu Xiaogang, and several other teachers, along with Tang San and the other three, arrived at the door.
At this moment, the clone Yin Hao was half-closing his eyes, looking quite relaxed.
Flander stepped forward, cupped his hands in greeting, and said… "I am Flander. Greetings, senior. May I ask what brings you here?"
Yin Hao, who had been keeping his eyes closed, finally opened them.
"Flander, the four-eyed owl? I have no interest in you. Call Yu Xiaogang out..."
Flander frowned slightly upon hearing this, but before he could say anything, Yu Xiaogang stepped forward.
"I am Yu Xiaogang. I wonder when I offended you, senior? I hope you can point me out!"
Yin Hao, the clone, glanced at him with his hands behind his back, looking like a reclusive master.
"Yu Xiaogang? I've heard of your name for a long time..."
Yu Xiaogang's lips curled up, unable to suppress a hint of pride, but he still said, "I dare not."
Yin Hao continued.
"Alright, enough with the nonsense. I'm here to collect a debt, Yu Xiaogang. Some people say you've been swindling people everywhere in the name of the Spirit Hall, and that your so-called 'Ten Core Competencies of Spirits' are plagiarized from the knowledge of the Spirit Hall's predecessors, shamelessly claiming them as your own. It's time to settle this score..."
Hearing this, the Shrek Academy members all turned their gazes to Yu Xiaogang. Tang San and the others were mostly puzzled—their teacher plagiarized the knowledge of the Spirit Hall's predecessors?
Zhao Wuji and the others were mostly gloating; they weren't familiar with Yu Xiaogang and were only here because of their leader (Flander).
Yu Xiaogang's smiling face instantly darkened.
"You're from the Spirit Hall?"
The clone Yin Hao didn't refute, but simply raised his right hand and said to Yu Xiaogang.
"In the name of the Spirit Hall, I'm here to collect the debt you owe me!"
He also silently recited to the system in his mind.
"System, claim Yu Xiaogang's level 29 Soul Power and soul ring age!"
"Heh... I can..."
Yu Xiaogang was initially unfazed by the clone Yin Hao's simple gesture, but before he could finish speaking,
his Martial Soul uncontrollably appeared before everyone's eyes. Then, to everyone's astonishment, the two yellow soul rings slowly transformed into white, and Yu Xiaogang's Soul Power aura gradually decreased.
Yu Xiaogang panicked.
"A Fallen One! You are a Fallen Soul Master! The Spirit Hall dares to provide protection for a Fallen Soul Master? Aren't you afraid of incurring the condemnation of the entire world?"
But no matter what he said, the clone Yin Hao ignored him. In just two seconds,
Yu Xiaogang's aura plummeted from that of a level 29 Great Soul Master to that of an ordinary person, and his two soul rings shattered instantly.
"No... no... you can't do that!"
Yu Xiaogang's eyes turned red, his face filled with rage as he glared at the clone Yin Hao, looking like he wanted to devour him!
Although his level 29 Soul Power wasn't high, he was still a Soul Master, and in this world where most people were ordinary, he was considered above average.
However, all of this vanished with the actions of the black-haired youth before them.
Flander and the others were stunned. From several meters away, without even summoning his Martial Soul, the young man had, with a single flick of his wrist, turned a Soul Master into an ordinary person with no Soul Power fluctuations, right before their eyes.
