**Chapter 372: Is the Dart Poisonous?**

The three of them really wanted to say to Tang San, "Boss, why don't we withdraw? This academy doesn't even want dogs to stay."

But seeing Tang San say, "Don't underestimate this academy, or you'll regret it," they couldn't continue.

Well, since the boss had come to this crappy academy, what else could they object to?

Now, they regretted leaving the college they had attended.

It would have been great if, after receiving the letter, they could have directly replied to the boss, saying, "Sorry, boss, my college won't let me expel you," and gotten away with it.

However, now that they were here, leaving in front of the boss would inevitably offend him.

The three followed Tang San to Flanders' office.

Flanders looked at the three, who seemed to be fifteen or sixteen years old but had only level twenty-six or twenty-seven soul power. He frowned slightly, showing a look of disgust.

Flanders looked at Tang San and asked in a questioning tone, "Xiao San, are these the suitable candidates you mentioned? The difference in age and ability is quite large..."

After hearing this, the three of them twitched their mouths and cursed inwardly.

"Damn it! If we weren't following the boss's orders, would we come to your crappy academy? It's not like we were happy to come here.

If you don't want us, why don't you just tell my boss? Now that we're here, you're still complaining about everything.

If I were 12 years old with soul power in the 20s, wouldn't it be better for me to go to the Five Elements Academy instead of yours?"

After hearing Flanders' words, Tang San nodded and gestured to the three of them.

"One of you come out and demonstrate the hidden weapon techniques I taught you to Dean Flanders."

Although the three were very dissatisfied, they couldn't refuse the boss's order.

So one of them stepped forward, touched his waist, and placed both hands on his waist.

The next moment, the man's eyes glowed purple, and his hands started to shake.

Under the activation of Xuantian Gong, the hidden weapons in his hands broke through the air almost simultaneously and flew toward the Tiandou map hanging on the wall, like flowers scattered by fairies.

In an instant, more than a dozen darts or flying needles were firmly nailed to the wooden wall where the Tiandou map was hung, penetrating deep into the wood.

Flanders walked over to the wall where the map was hung and reached out to pull down a dart.

Although the dart was deeply embedded in the wall, it was not difficult for him, a Soul Saint-level warrior, to pull it out.

After observing carefully for a moment, Flanders slowly commented, "This technique is not bad, but the power is a bit low. Even if these darts can hurt soul masters at level 30 or 40, they can't cause much damage."

"Hehe... Dean, that's wrong. It's enough as long as the dart can hurt them. After all, in addition to hidden weapons, my Tang Sect is also good at using poison.

I personally taught them all, so they're naturally not bad at using poison."

"Poison? You mean this dart is poisonous?"

Flanders looked stunned for a moment, then threw the dart to the ground. He spread out his palm and found that a large area of his palm had turned black.

"Poison? It's really poisonous... It seems that the people in the Tang Sect you mentioned are not exactly upright."

Flanders was startled, complained in dissatisfaction, and then hurriedly tried to use his soul power to force out the poison.

"Upright? Maybe I was a fool before, but after some things happened, I don't want to be that stupid anymore."

Tang San immediately thought of the time when he first entered the Notting Junior Soul Master Academy, when that group of bastards knocked him out twice in a row and then beat him up.

Over the past five years, he and Yu Xiaogang tried various means but couldn't find out the whereabouts of those naughty kids, let alone the identities of the people behind them.

Anyway, he now had serious suspicions that all this must be related to the Demon-Suppressing Douluo, Zhao Ling. That guy was the only one highly suspicious.

But the other party is now the number one person under the gods. If I fight him openly, I'll definitely be beaten to a pulp.

Therefore, he could only use his strengths—his abundance of hidden weapons.

In the past five years, he was able to forge some mechanical hidden weapons, such as the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, the Tight-back Flower Crossbow, and so on.

At the same time, he was very clear that it was highly likely the Demon-Suppressing Douluo had traveled back from a more distant future.

He also possessed the methods of making Tang Sect's hidden weapons, so he could only improve those weapons.

Only through improvement could those hidden weapons become far more powerful than the original ones.

This would give him a certain advantage in the future competition with Zhao Ling, but that was a story for later.

Tang San quickly walked up to Flanders and began to detoxify him. After less than a minute, the poison in Flanders' hand was removed.

The hand that had turned black returned to its original flesh color, making Flanders breathe a sigh of relief.

"Dean Flanders, do you think these three are qualified?" Tang San asked with a smile.

"Well, it's enough in terms of threat, but I think if your hidden weapons encounter a defensive spirit master, you won't be able to break through their defenses, right?"

Flanders nodded but then changed the subject, starting to make things difficult again.

"It's not difficult to break through the defense… Dean Flanders, as far as I know, you have a large piece of turbid crystal, right? If you're willing to give me that turbid crystal, I can help you solve your puzzle."

"Huh? How do you know I have a big crystal?" Flanders was stunned for a moment, then waved his hand.

"That crystal—if you want it, I'll give it to you. It's not worth much anyway. Just follow me to the store and get it."

Tang San also knew that although Flanders was cunning and stingy, that was because he wanted to make money to support the entire Shrek Academy.

Now that he was already a student at Shrek Academy, and although he was only 12 years old with a soul power of level 33, it was impossible for Dean Flanders to be stingy with him.

That was why he asked Flanders to give him the crystal. After all, the crystal was of no use to Flanders, but it was a rare treasure to him.

With the Plate Crystal Golden Dragon Whisker Needle, he could threaten even a Soul Emperor or Soul Saint level.

In his previous life, when he was only level 29, he used this crystal to fight against Teacher Zhao Wuji and gave him a hard time. Therefore, he was determined to get this crystal.

Then, Tang San and his three younger brothers followed Flanders to the shop in Soto City.

When the three younger brothers saw the cloudy crystal, they couldn't help but swallow their saliva.

They finally understood why the boss had asked the dean for this crystal...
