Chapter 86: I'm waiting for you to defeat me.
After all, Yu Tianheng is a direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family and the core of the team he initially formed.
"Impulse?"
Dugu Yan turned around, her long, dark green hair swaying gently, carrying a dangerous aura.
"When he wanted to attack Xuanming, didn't he think about the consequences of his impulsiveness?"
"A piece of trash who can't even beat a woman, does he deserve to stay by Xuanming's side?"
Dugu Yan's words were harsh and merciless.
Yu Tianheng's face turned a deep purplish-red, and another mouthful of blood surged to his throat, which he forced down.
"I..."
He wanted to refute, but found himself speechless.
Being outmatched in skill, the defeat was swift and decisive, rendering any attempt at explanation futile.
Yu Feng and Oslo huddled in the corner, not daring to breathe.
Only then did they truly realize that Dugu Yan's strength had reached a level they could only look up to.
Although she was strong before, she never had such overwhelming power over Yu Tianheng.
"Alright, Yanzi," Ye Xuanming said.
Dugu Yan then calmed down, walked over and sat down next to Ye Xuanming, and casually picked up a pastry, taking a big bite as if that pastry was Yu Tianheng.
Seeing this, Qin Ming could only sigh.
He walked over to Yu Tianheng and helped him up.
"What exactly happened?" he asked in a low voice.
Yu Feng glanced at Ye Xuanming, and seeing that he didn't object, he cautiously moved closer to Qin Ming and recounted what had just happened in fits and starts.
From Yu Xiaogang calling Yu Tianheng away, to Yu Tianheng's unusual probing after his return, to Ye Xuanming's merciless revelation, and finally to Yu Tianheng's furious attack being subdued by Dugu Yan in one move.
Qin Ming's expression became increasingly complex as Yu Feng recounted the story.
Yu Xiaogang...
Yu Xiaogang is a friend of Dean Flander, and Qin Ming was once a member of Shrek Academy.
Qin Ming never expected that Yu Xiaogang would instigate Yu Tianheng to do such a thing.
This is no longer a simple search for secrets; it is a challenge to the bottom line of a powerful person.
Although Ye Xuanming's approach was tough, it was not entirely wrong.
"Tianheng, you're so foolish." Qin Ming's voice was filled with disappointment.
Yu Tianheng lowered his head, his body trembling slightly, and remained silent.
Silence fell over the room for a moment.
Ning Rongrong shook Ye Xuanming's arm impatiently.
"Brother Ye, let's eat. I'm really hungry."
Her words broke the awkward silence.
Ye Xuanming nodded and opened the food box that Qin Ming had brought, and a fragrant aroma immediately filled the air.
He picked up a pair of chopsticks, took a piece of delicate pastry, and handed it to Ning Rongrong's lips.
"Eat."
Ning Rongrong happily opened her mouth, took a small bite, and her eyes curved into crescents.
Ye Xuanming picked up another piece and handed it to Dugu Yan beside him.
Dugu Yan was stunned for a moment, and the frost on her face melted a little. She opened her mouth and ate it as well.
Finally, Ye Xuanming looked at Ye Lingling, who was sitting quietly to the side.
Ye Lingling shook her head, picked up the teapot, and poured him another cup of warm water.
This scene, where no one else was around, made Qin Ming and Yu Tianheng, who were still frozen in place, seem even more superfluous.
Yu Feng and Oslo exchanged a glance and silently took two steps back, afraid of disturbing the atmosphere over there.
Looking at Ye Xuanming's drastically different levels of tenderness towards the three girls, and then at his own disheveled appearance, Yu Tianheng was overwhelmed by a huge sense of loss.
He was once the center of the team, the captain around whom everyone revolved.
But now, he's an outsider.
An outsider who is easily defeated and arbitrarily driven away.
Ye Xuanming ate a few bites before he seemed to remember something. He looked up at Qin Ming.
"Teacher Qin Ming."
When will you return?
Qin Ming was taken aback, but then he realized what was happening.
"First thing tomorrow morning."
Ye Xuanming nodded.
"Rongrong, Sister Yanzi, Sister Lingling, and I will go ahead first."
Qin Ming's heart sank completely; he knew there was no way to salvage the situation.
Ye Xuanming's words were the final decision.
"good."
He managed to utter a single word.
Ye Xuanming stood up and helped Ning Rongrong up.
He paused for a moment as he passed by Yu Tianheng.
"Yu Tianheng".
Yu Tianheng's body stiffened, and he slowly raised his head.
"Since you trust Yu Xiaogang, then go to his side."
Ye Xuanming's voice was calm, without sarcasm or anger, simply stating his facts.
"I'm waiting for you to defeat me."
After saying that, he didn't linger and led Ning Rongrong, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling out of the suite.
The door was closed, cutting off all sight of those inside.
Inside the suite, there was only deathly silence.
Yu Tianheng's body trembled with shame and anger.
Qin Ming stood there, the aroma wafting from the food box now smelling bitter.
Soto was busier at night than during the day.
As Yu Tianheng walked down the street, the bustling sounds of the crowd around him seemed to be obscured by a veil of water, making them indistinct to him.
The poison left by Dugu Yan's palm strike was still lingering in his body, making him feel numb all over, but what was even more numb was his heart.
Ye Xuanming's last words echoed in his mind again and again.
"I'm waiting for you to defeat me."
That's not a challenge, that's charity.
It is the indifferent pity of the strong towards the weak.
He clenched his fists, his nails digging deep into his palms, the stinging sensation clearing his chaotic thoughts somewhat.
uncle.
This thought emerged and became the only piece of driftwood he could grasp at that moment.
He changed direction without hesitation and headed towards the simple hotel where the Shrek Academy students were staying.
The hotel's dilapidated wooden door creaked open.
Yu Xiaogang was sitting at the table, facing a dim oil lamp, writing and drawing something on a piece of parchment.
Hearing the commotion, he looked up and saw Yu Tianheng looking disheveled, but he wasn't surprised at all.
"You've arrived."
Yu Xiaogang's voice was hoarse, and his bloodshot eyes burned with an almost insane stubbornness.
Yu Tianheng nodded silently and sat down opposite him.
"I've been expelled from the Clash Royale team."
"Dugu Yan defeated me in one move."
Yu Tianheng spoke in a low voice, as if he were recounting someone else's story.
Yu Xiaogang put down his pen.
"I see."
Instead of comforting Yu Tianheng, Yu Xiaogang continued in an analytical tone.
"Ye Xuanming is isolating you because he's afraid."
Yu Tianheng suddenly raised his head.
"Afraid?"
"That's right, Ye Xuanming is afraid that if you stay by his side, you'll discover his secrets."
Yu Xiaogang's voice has a captivating power.
"Think about it, if he is really invincible, why doesn't he keep you by his side, slowly torment you, and make you live in his shadow?"
Wouldn't that better satisfy a victor's vanity?
"He drove you away because your existence was a threat to him!"
