Chapter 214: A Green Turtle, a Scumbag, and a Love-struck Fool

If it weren't for Flender and the others deliberately restraining themselves from releasing too much of their soul power, the three teachers from Blue Tyrant Academy might not have been able to stand properly by now.

"Is that enough?"

Flender's voice carried a slight tremor of soul power, snapping the three stunned soul masters back to reality.

"Ah, of course, that's enough. Respected seniors, please withdraw your martial souls."

The three of them immediately became noticeably more respectful.

Tang San stood among the Shrek Seven Devils, observing the scene before him and thinking to himself—this world still revolved around strength.

Back at Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, the mere presence of a Titled Douluo had completely suppressed the Shrek Academy teachers, leaving them powerless. Even Flender himself had to endure and refrain from making a move.

Now, however, the overwhelming power of the Shrek Academy teachers had stunned Blue Tyrant Academy. Strength was indeed the most important factor.

After witnessing Flender and the others reveal their martial souls, the teachers of Blue Tyrant Academy now turned their expectant gazes to Yu Xiaogang.

Yu Xiaogang suddenly felt his face burning.

Why are they looking at me?

He hesitated for a moment, recalling the humiliation he suffered at Heaven Dou Imperial Academy. Now faced with a similar situation, he decided not to hesitate anymore.

He directly summoned his martial soul.

"Rank twenty-nine Battle Soul Master, Martial Soul Luo San Pao, Yu Xiaogang!"

Silence.

Nothing but silence.

Cough, cough, cough...

"This mature-looking student, this is a test for teachers. You don't need to participate."

The moment those words were spoken, no one could hold back their laughter any longer.

Especially Ning Rongrong—she laughed without restraint.

If it weren't for Yun Feng holding her up, she would have already collapsed to the ground.

"Hahahahahaha—"

"Hahaha—"

"A student!!"

Even Flender and the others had traces of amusement in their eyes.

Yu Xiaogang could barely endure it anymore.

His face turned red with embarrassment as he loudly declared:

"Soul power isn't everything! I am Yu Xiaogang, the theoretical master of the Martial Soul world! An elder of the Martial Soul Hall!"

The moment he said that, Ning Rongrong laughed even harder.

After a long while, the Blue Tyrant Academy teachers finally regained their composure. Once they realized that Yu Xiaogang was indeed not a disguised student, they took a deep breath.

The leading teacher of Blue Tyrant Academy, who was named Yin Shu, spoke respectfully:

"I am Yin Shu, a rank fifty-four Assault System Battle Soul Master. I cannot evaluate the levels of you seniors."

"How about this—I will take you to meet our dean. She will determine your qualifications and treatment."

All of them were soul masters above rank sixty. The recruitment test was now meaningless. The most important thing was to keep them here.

Yin Shu was clearly a smart person to have been entrusted with this recruitment task.

He immediately understood that the best course of action was to show these powerful soul masters Blue Tyrant Academy's sincerity.

"Then let's go."

Flender smiled slightly.

The teachers of Shrek Academy were in much better spirits.

After all, being respected felt far better than being looked down upon.

Although this place wasn't as luxurious as Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, it had its own advantages.

Yin Shu and the other two Blue Tyrant Academy teachers led the way out of the pointed building and followed a small path toward the rear of the academy.

Before long, they entered the outer forest surrounding the main campus.

As soon as Yun Feng stepped into the forest, he spoke directly to Ah Yin:

"Ah Yin, attach yourself."

Ah Yin knew what Yun Feng intended to do, but she didn't hesitate in the slightest.

After all, to her, she already belonged to Yun Feng.

And more importantly, if it meant making things difficult for Tang San, she was more than happy to help!

With Ah Yin's support, his fifth soul skill quietly spread out, unknowingly affecting everyone around him.

The ones most affected were Yu Xiaogang and Flender!

Yu Xiaogang asked curiously:

"Does your dean not live on campus?"

Yin Shu answered seriously, without looking down on Yu Xiaogang for his weak strength.

"Our dean doesn't usually stay in the academy. She prefers quiet and lives alone in the forest."

"The daily affairs of the academy are handled by the teachers. Only major decisions require consulting the dean."

When mentioning the dean, Yin Shu's eyes showed genuine respect, coming from the heart.

"I see."

Yu Xiaogang didn't ask further, but for some reason, an inexplicable unease lingered in his heart.

After walking for about ten minutes through the fresh forest air, a faint singing voice suddenly drifted from ahead.

The song was soft and melodious, filled with sorrow and regret. The mournful tune evoked a deep sadness, and its repeated melodies were incredibly touching.

"Unable to sleep at night, what can I use to numb myself?"

"Emotions..."

"What's wrong with me?"

"Why do I wallow in self-pity? I should have let go long ago."

"Sigh."

The singing faded away.

Flender and Yu Xiaogang, who had been walking at the front, had already stopped in their tracks the moment the song began.

Flender's expression was somewhat strange.

Yu Xiaogang, at first, felt a tinge of sentimentality.

But as the song continued and he heard those words, his whole body stiffened.

Seeing Flender and Yu Xiaogang's odd reactions, the others couldn't help but stop in surprise.

Suddenly, Yu Xiaogang abruptly turned around and attempted to run back the way they came. But Flender firmly grabbed his shoulder.

Flender spoke in a low voice:

"Xiaogang, how much longer are you going to run? You've already come this far—do you really have the heart to not see her?"

"Flender, you knew she was here, didn't you? Blue Tyrant Academy… Blue Tyrant Academy… Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon… I should have realized it."

Flender made a helpless gesture.

"How would I have known she was here? This is just a coincidence. Now let's go."

Yu Xiaogang's eyes flickered with hesitation.

After running away for twenty years, he was finally about to face her again, and completely unprepared for it. What kind of feeling was that?

Using someone and then fleeing.

Right now, his heart was in torment.

But Flender's grip on Yu Xiaogang's shoulder was firm and resolute, though there was a trace of sorrow in his eyes.

"Dragon girl, I've brought him to you. This time, no matter what, you have to hold onto him. You can't let him leave again."

Yun Feng took in the entire scene.

A green turtle, a scumbag, and a love-struck fool.

He really didn't know what to say.

Good thing he was here.

Otherwise, he would have missed such a great show!

Just as Yu Xiaogang suspected, Flender had indeed known that she was at Blue Tyrant Academy. Choosing to come to Heaven Dou Imperial Academy back then was partly because she was in Heaven Dou City.

Everything that happened between the three of them back then—Flender had never forgotten.

He had long since made up his mind. Even if he had to trick Yu Xiaogang, he would find a way to bring the two back together.

Did worldly opinions really matter that much?
