Putting other things aside, the attitude of several people towards Dai Mubai is very strange. Han Li doesn't believe for a second that Qian Renxue isn't behind it.

Originally, he had understood that Zhu Zhuqing was the one who voluntarily separated herself from the small group. However, looking at the current situation, the one being isolated is Dai Mubai.

This is evident from observing the scene. Even Dai Mubai's original three good brothers didn't approach him, and Ning Rongrong was outright provocative.

Qian Renxue wants the horse to run but doesn't want to feed it. Dai Mubai is just a tool for her, the kind that's discarded after use.

But right now, Dai Mubai doesn't have other choices. The current group is the best team he can find. If he gives up on this opportunity and loses Qian Renxue's support, his fate is bleak.

Even this seemingly fragile bait has tied Dai Mubai down. He's resentful towards Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing, but he can only endure it.

Can this team make it to the soul master finals? For the first time, Han Li had this doubt.

Whatever, let them do as they please. Han Li never considered them rivals anyway; they were too weak.

Just as he had this thought, he saw Yu Xiaogang gesturing for Tang San to come over to the other side of the training field.

Tang San said goodbye to Xiao Wu and followed.

"Teacher, what's the matter?"

Tang San looked at Yu Xiaogang with confusion, not understanding why his teacher called him out alone.

"Xiao San, there's something I must remind you of as your teacher."

Yu Xiaogang's expression became serious, and Tang San's demeanor followed suit.

"You must have noticed. Ever since arriving in Heaven Dou City, your team has been having more and more problems."

Yu Xiaogang had a disappointed look on his face, seemingly waiting for Tang San to respond.

"Teacher, I'm aware of the situation, but there's nothing I can do."

Tang San replied with a bitter smile. He wasn't bad at reading people, but after his teammates revealed their identities one after another, he was under a lot of pressure.

Although he was confident that he wouldn't be weaker than the forces behind these people in the future, his current strength was insufficient. It was best not to easily become hostile with them.

As a disciple of the Tang Sect, he would rather fight someone, or even assemble a hidden weapon on the spot, than deal with these kinds of interpersonal issues.

"Xiao San, you know, the most important thing in a team is cohesion. Without cohesion, no matter how strong it is, it will be vulnerable."

"Before, I always built this team around you as the core, but now..."

At this point, Yu Xiaogang glanced at the scattered people in the field and sighed heavily, leaving his sentence unfinished.

Tang San couldn't help but look back at the field. He saw Xiao Wu talking to Ning Rongrong. When she noticed him looking over, she smiled and waved at him, and Tang San smiled back.

Then he turned to his despondent teacher and quickly tried to reassure him: "Teacher, don't worry, I'll find a way."

"A solution, there is indeed a ready-made solution. The problem is clear, but can it be solved? Who will solve it?"

Yu Xiaogang was both concerned and gratified at Tang San's response, while also voicing his complaints.

"So you have a solution, teacher. Please tell me, I'll try to solve it."

Tang San's eyes lit up when he heard his teacher had a solution. For him, dealing with people was difficult, but if there was a ready-made solution, executing it would not be a problem.

"It's not something difficult to see."

Yu Xiaogang felt warmth in his heart, pleased with Tang San's behavior. His disciple could see these issues but was willing to present himself like this in front of him, showing obvious respect for his teacher.

Xiao San, you have a good heart.

"The root of the problem is very clear, the hidden dangers were already there before coming to Heaven Dou City."

Yu Xiaogang continued with his habit of leaving his words half-spoken.

Tang San furrowed his brows slightly and lowered his voice: "Teacher, do you mean Zhuqing?"

"That's right, you're very perceptive, Xiao San."

Yu Xiaogang crossed his arms behind his back, looking satisfied with Tang San's response.

Meanwhile, Han Li, who had been paying close attention to the conversation between the master and disciple, almost burst out laughing.

He pinched his thigh hard to keep himself from laughing, afraid that he might lose his composure.

Tang San wasn't good at communication, and Yu Xiaogang filled in the gaps the whole time. The most amazing thing was that their frequencies matched perfectly. Han Li considered it quite a spectacle.

Suppressing his laughter, Han Li looked back at the two of them.

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's praise, Tang San felt a bit embarrassed but quickly calmed down.

"But, teacher, except for training and combat, Zhu Zhuqing doesn't want to communicate with us. Besides, apart from not wanting to try the Martial Soul fusion technique with Dai Mubai, she performs very well in other areas and works hard in her training."

Putting aside the Martial Soul fusion technique, Tang San was very satisfied with Zhu Zhuqing. Whether in training or combat, she followed his instructions diligently, which was much better than the others.

"But her talent is the weakest, and don't forget her identity."

Yu Xiaogang shook his head, reminding Tang San earnestly.

"Collaborating with Dai Mubai on the Martial Soul fusion technique is what she should be focusing on. Right now, she's giving up her greatest advantage. No matter how well she does in other areas, she can't make up for this significant flaw."

"If the Martial Soul fusion technique is accomplished, it would greatly enhance the entire team, allowing you to stand on a higher stage. Are you willing to give up on that?"

Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San, who was hanging his head in shame, with a look of frustration, knowing that his words had hit their mark.

Then he seized the moment and continued, "You should know that this time, the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament winners will receive three soul bones. As the core, you will certainly get one, which will greatly help you increase your strength."

"And at that time, your name will be known to everyone, and your father will naturally hear about it. Don't you want to see your father again?"

At this point, Yu Xiaogang felt a bit guilty and glanced around quickly before straightening his posture again.

He wasn't sure if Tang Hao was watching in secret, but even if he was, Yu Xiaogang could confidently say that all of this was for Tang San's benefit.

After hearing these words, Tang San, who had been looking down, clenched his fist and raised his head with a determined expression.

"Teacher, I'll do as you say."

He missed Tang Hao, having not heard from his father for several years, and wondered if he was doing well.

Moreover, the teacher's reasoning was sound. This was also a good opportunity to prove his teacher's worth. Over the years, he had always remembered his teacher's care, and it was time to repay it.

"But teacher, what about Ning Rongrong?"

Having just expressed his stance, Tang San frowned again.

Zhu Zhuqing currently has a good relationship with Ning Rongrong. To deal with Zhu Zhuqing's issue, Ning Rongrong would inevitably get involved, and if she caused a scene, it would be hard to manage.

"As for Ning Rongrong, you don't have to worry about her, your..."

Yu Xiaogang paused suddenly before continuing: "Don't worry about her. If she makes a fuss, let her. As long as she can provide support, that's enough. Rest assured, I can guarantee that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan won't interfere in this matter."

Yu Xiaogang appeared confident as if he wasn't concerned about Ning Rongrong at all.

"That's good. I'll talk to Fatty and Oscar later. It shouldn't be a problem."

Seeing that the Grandmaster already had a plan, Tang San felt relieved.

To be honest, he didn't like Ning Rongrong much, especially after coming to Heaven Dou City. She had reverted to her former arrogant self and showed no respect for his teacher.

But her support abilities were indeed excellent and considering her background, Tang San had no choice but to put up with it.

As for Zhu Zhuqing, with the Grandmaster's words, Tang San instinctively overlooked her feelings.

He already had a good relationship with Dai Mubai and didn't think there was anything wrong with him. After hearing his teacher's words, he also felt that Zhu Zhuqing was somewhat failing to recognize her position.

Her strengths couldn't cover her biggest weakness. If the Martial Soul fusion technique could be completed, the team's strength would soar. It would be beneficial for everyone.

Moreover, as long as they won, Zhu Zhuqing could not only survive but, which would benefit her as well. It was time to persuade her.

"Teacher, I'll go talk to Fatty, Oscar, and Boss Dai now. What do you think?"

Tang San made his decision and sought Yu Xiaogang's approval.

"Go ahead, it's good to resolve this quickly. Remember what I said: if this problem isn't solved, continuing to train won't be very effective."

Yu Xiaogang reminded him seriously, giving him an encouraging look.

"I understand, Teacher. I won't let you down."

Tang San respectfully saluted and walked toward the three boys on the field, mentally organizing what he would say.

In the shadows, Han Li's eyes flickered, and his expression was cold as he cast a sympathetic glance at Zhu Zhuqing, who was meditating to restore her soul power and stamina.

Disgusting, and truly disgusting. This was how he felt after listening to the entire conversation between the two.

Even though he considered himself not a good person and somewhat of a hypocrite, Yu Xiaogang's words still made him feel sick.
