Chapter 23

FENG LIE'S POV

"What bad luck. For us to run into this hypocritical plagiarist so soon..." I thought a little annoyed to see the teacher and disciple duo in front of me.

"Gu Yuena and Wang Qiu'er, what a coincidence to meet today. What do you think of us..." Yu Xiaogang spoke with a tired smile but was ruthlessly interrupted.

"Spare us this waste of time you old fart. Our answer will never change." Xiao Wu crossed his arms and spoke coldly and disgustedly to Yu Xiaogang.

For the past 4 years, Yu Xiaogang has insistently asked if Gu Yuena and Wang Qiu'er wanted to have Yu Xiaogang as their teacher. He said that if the two became his disciples then they would receive his teachings to reach the full potential of their martial spirits.

Does he really want to offer the knowledge he plagiarized from the Spirit Hall as his own? But what a joke.

In my opinion, in addition to being a shameless plagiarist, Yu Xiaogang is also very hypocritical. There are several reasons why I consider him a hypocrite is the following sentence.

"There are no such thing as junk martial spirits, just junk people."

Hearing this phrase makes you think that even if your martial spirit is mediocre, there is still hope to become strong.

Yu Xiaogang always uses this phrase to pose as an intellectual man and thus hide his lack of strength.

But he is already over 50 years old and still he remains stagnant at rank 29. Doesn't that make him a trash person?

But what really makes him seem like a hypocritical person is his attitude towards getting disciples.

Wang Qiu'er's martial spirit is the Golden Dragon.

When Gu Yuena explained to me about the reconstitution that 100,000-year-old spirit beasts do to transform into humans in order to escape the catastrophe that occurs every 100,000 years of cultivation, I was a little confused about Wang Qiu'er.

When a spirit beast reconstitutes itself into a human, its martial spirit is its kind. Xiao Wu is a good example of this, before turning into a human she was a Soft Bone Rabbit and because of that her martial spirit is the Soft Bone Rabbit.

But Wang Qiu'er was a Three-Eyed Golden Lion, she was not a Golden Dragon. So why was her martial spirit the Golden Dragon?

About this Gu Yuena gave two some plausible explanations.

The first was that Wang Qiu'er has the Golden Dragon bloodline. Martial spirits are greatly influenced by bloodlines.

The second explanation is that before, Gu Yuena ordered Di Tian to transfer 20,000 years of her cultivation to Wang Qiu'er to advance her reconstitution into a human. And since Di Tian is a true dragon this also influenced the Golden Dragon bloodline so that her martial spirit was the Golden Dragon.

Now, talking about Gu Yuena's martial spirit... Gu Yuena doesn't have any martial spirit.

Unlike Xiao Wu and Wang Qiu'er, Gu Yuena is not a spirit beast but a divine beast. She didn't need to reconstitute herself to human form and reset her cultivation.

Gu Yuena is the Silver Dragon King, so she has control over the seven elements which are fire, water, earth, wind, light, darkness and space.

As a divine beast Gu Yuena is able to change into a human form without needing to reset her cultivation but because of that she cannot create a martial spirit.

Fortunately because of her control over the seven elements she is able to trick other people into thinking that she possesses an elemental martial spirit.

Gu Yuena is using the Elementalist martial spirit as a facade to have the identity of a spiritual master. As for spirit rings, Gu Yuena being a divine beast can use her aura to condense false spirit rings.

Although Gu Yuena's cultivation has not been reset, she cannot wield power greater than that of a Spirit King. If she overdoes it her internal wounds will open up.

Now talking about the martial spirits of the Gold Dragon and the Elementalist. Both martial spirits are of the highest level.

The Gold Dragon's martial spirit is so strong that it would make the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon's martial spirit look like an electric gecko.

While the Elementalist is a martial spirit who can control seven elements and therefore can overcome people who have twin spirits.

"This old man wants to prove his theory (plagiarism) correct just to prove to everyone that he's not a waste, but it's a shame he's doing it all wrong." I thought sarcastically to Yu Xiaogang.

"There are no garbage martial spirits, only garbage people"

Yu Xiaogang coined this phrase so he should follow his own words, but he is prioritizing getting disciples who possess high level martial spirits rather than those with ordinary martial spirits.

If Yu Xiaogang truly wants to be revered as a master of theories then there is only one correct way to achieve it.

And that's turning a disciple who has a low-quality martial spirit into a Titled Douluo. If Yu Xiaogang could do it then it would be well deserved for him to be praised as a master of theory.

But that will not happen, after all he is a shameless hypocrite.

He is not trying to turn stone into gold. He's just trying to get some rough diamonds to refine.

For the past 4 years Yu Xiaogang has insistently continued to make Gu Yuena and Wang Qiu'er his disciples. Yu Xiaogang also made Xiao Wu his disciple but she refused.

Spiritual beasts that have reconstituted themselves into humans possess full innate spiritual power.

Gu Yuena, Wang Qiu'er, and Xiao Wu already started at rank 10 at the age of six. (Gu Yuena is keeping up the facade.)

The three girls possess full spiritual power, with Gu Yuena and Wang Qiu'er possessing very high level martial spirits. Basically all of them will be able to reach the level of Titled Douluo in their lives.

Even if Yu Xiaogang managed by some miracle to convince them to become his disciples and they had reached the level of Entitled Douluo he still would not have gained any recognition. After all, they would have managed to reach that level only with their talent and not his theories (plagiarism).

And there's also Yu Xiaogang's disciple, Tang San.

Publicly Tang San possesses the Blue Silver Grass martial spirit which is known as the most useless martial spirit of all. If it was just that, then Tang San would be perfect for Yu Xiaogang to prove his theory. But it is a pity that this is pure deception.

Tang San's innate spiritual power is complete.

But this raises some doubts, after all the level of one's innate spiritual power is related to the quality of the martial spirit. The quality of Blue Spirit Grass is very low and will normally only result in an innate spiritual power of 1 to 3.

So how is it possible that Tang San is filled with spiritual energy right from the start?

Before, based on all the knowledge that luxury has taught me about spiritual masters, I had thought of two answers to this question.

The first is that Tang San's Blue Silver Grass is a mutation, and it seems that it must be a very powerful mutation for Tang San to have full innate spiritual power.

The second is that Tang San must have twin martial spirits. But that's a possibility considering the strangeness of this situation.

The requirement for having twin spirits is that both martial spirits must have the same quality level with each other. If one is slightly inferior to the other then that martial spirit cannot exist. Generally people who possess twin martial spirits possess full innate spiritual power.

But we are talking about Blue Silver Grass, no matter how powerful your mutation is, its quality would reach medium level resulting in starting level 5 or 6 in spirit energy, so only a medium level martial spirit could accompany this Blue Silver Grass . And even then I doubt it would be enough to achieve full innate spiritual power.

For a long time I had many doubts about Tang San's martial spirit, and last month Luxon told us something that made things even more confusing.

The identity of Tang San's father.

Tang San's father is Tang Hao also known as the Clear Sky Douluo, he is a Entitled Douluo quite famous in the world and his martial spirit is the Clear Sky Hammer which is considered by people as the world's number one tool-type martial spirit. .

"If Tang San has twin spirits then he will for sure have this hammer, but if so then how is it possible that he has that Blue Silver Grass? Even if it is a powerful mutation it shouldn't be possible for that Blue Silver Grass to match the Clear Sky Hammer, so how is that possible?" I wondered in my mind doubtfully for not understanding something so strange.

"Xiao Wu! How dare you disrespect my teacher?" Tang San spoke out indignation and anger towards Xiao Wu.

"And what's wrong with calling that insistent old fart an old fart? I just told the truth." Xiao Wu spoke contemptuously to Tang San.

"Feng Lie can I burn these two insects?" Gu Yuena asked softly in my ear, she spoke as if she was going to get rid of two annoying flies.

"No, you can't... Do you want the Spirit Hall to send Entitled Douluos to this city?" I spoke softly so only she could hear.

In our group, the person who most wants to kill Yu Xiaogang is Gu Yuena.

Yu Xiaogang was always bragging about his theories to spiritual masters, and he once said that spiritual beasts are just cattle for mankind. This clearly pissed off the girls (especially Gu Yuena).

Gu Yuena and the girls really wanted to kill Yu Xiaogang but I stopped them from doing so. The reason I protected that garbage wasn't for his own good but because I feared the Spirit Hall would come to Nuoding City if he died.

To be more precise, what I fear most is attracting the attention of the Supreme Pontiff of the Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong.

In these last four years Luxon has investigated the Douluo continent a lot, he has investigated the main powers that control the Douluo continent and among these powers is the Spirit Hall.

Luxon never entered the Spirit City which is the main headquarters of the Spirit Hall on the Douluo continent because he feared that his existence would be discovered by the Titled Douluos there. But he still had a way to investigate the Spirit Hall branches spread across the continent.

And something shocking was discovered at the Spirit Hall branch in Nuoding City. It's the fact that that branch was ordered to observe Yu Xiaogang's actions here in the city, and the one who gave the observation order was Bibi Dong.

"Probably she still hasn't forgotten about that plagiarist." I thought with a bit of mockery and pity. After all, if she's observed a little bit of Yu Xiaogang's life, then she must know that he married his cousin a year after he split from Bibi Dong.

"Still she hasn't forgotten about that garbage, that's really mind-boggling." I thought as I couldn't understand that woman's actions..

Be that as it may, in our current situation it is best not to attract the attention of the Spirit Hall, even if the girls' spirit beast aura is hidden.

"In the future... When our situation improves, then you can burn these two slowly and painfully." I spoke softly into Gu Yuena's ear.

"Excellent." Gu Yuena spoke happily.
