Chapter 48 The Diverse Thoughts of the Group
Oscar was speechless. He couldn't understand why Yu Xiaogang would say such a thing.
Zhu Zhuqing and Meng Yiran completely agreed; they really wanted to slap Yu Xiaogang, this level 29 Great Soul Master.
However, it wasn't surprising that they thought that way.
They had activated their gravity-sensing bracelets long ago, and the weight they carried was much heavier than the stones Tang San and the others were carrying.
Moreover, they couldn't relax even while sleeping; they were practically training with weights 24 hours a day.
Tang San and the others only had to run around carrying stones in the afternoon and relax with medicinal baths in the evening.
Compared to each other, who the hell was the lazy one?
Yu Xiaogang noticed that Oscar and the others weren't moving, their eyes fixed on him.
This made him very happy.
"They're looking at me! They're looking at me! It seems they're also very envious of the training I set up for Xiao San and the others!"
Yu Xiaogang thought smugly, already fantasizing about Oscar and the others becoming his disciples.
If such a thing really happened, then his name, Yu Xiaogang, would resound throughout the entire continent.
After all, snatching a disciple from a Title Douluo is a unique feat.
Just imagining it made Yu Xiaogang's mouth practically stretch to his ears.
Oscar and the other two, seeing his expression, looked disgusted and quickly continued their training.
Their expressions seemed to suggest their eyes would explode if they looked at him any longer.
Dai Mubai, running behind Tang San carrying stones, looked impatient.
"Tang San, will the training your teacher set up really make me stronger? Why? I don't feel any effect at all."
Dai Mubai's competitive spirit was ignited by seeing Zhu Zhuqing's growing strength.
He had only reluctantly followed the training because Tang San had boasted about Yu Xiaogang's invincible theories.
Hearing Dai Mubai question Yu Xiaogang, Tang San immediately darkened his face and said, "Mubai, if you don't believe my teacher, go train yourself."
Hearing Tang San's impolite words, Dai Mubai helplessly explained, "Oscar and the others have gravity-sensing bracelets. Will carrying stones really improve anything?"
They had all witnessed Lan Minghua giving the apprenticeship gift, and they all knew that Oscar and the others were training with gravity-sensing bracelets.
Those things were far more efficient than their stone-carrying training.
Hearing this, Tang San fell silent.
Compared to Oscar and the others, this training offered them no advantage; in fact, it was a disadvantage.
However, he still believed in Yu Xiaogang, and in his theoretically invincible teacher.
"Teacher must have a deeper meaning in having us do this. We just need to do it well."
After saying this, Tang San didn't speak again and continued running with the stones on his back.
Dai Mubai gritted his teeth, deciding to believe Tang San this once. He
also didn't speak again and continued running with the stones on his back.
However, neither of them knew that Yu Xiaogang had no deeper meaning in having them run with stones on their backs.
He simply wanted to improve their physique through this training.
If it were the original story, the Shrek Seven Devils running with stones on their backs might have meant to strengthen their unity.
Tang San and the other three were already a bunch of scoundrels; what need did they have for training their unity by running with stones on their backs?
Therefore, Yu Xiaogang's training was truly just a low-efficiency way to improve their physique.
Lan Minghua, on the rooftop, almost burst out laughing upon hearing Tang San and Dai Mubai's conversation.
"They really believe that?! Dai Mubai's life is ruined then."
He already had little chance of catching up with Zhu Zhuqing, and now that he believed Yu Xiaogang, all hope was gone.
Lan Minghua, of course, remained indifferent; they weren't his disciples, so why should he care?
However, he had just overheard something very unpleasant.
"Flander, Flander, what, do you want to be the next Ning Fengzhi?"
Lan Minghua narrowed his eyes, his gaze falling on Flander's room.
Just now, Flander had muttered a long monologue.
The content was about weighing the pros and cons of Lan Minghua's presence at Shrek Academy, and the benefits he could gain.
Lan Minghua didn't say anything, because Shrek Academy was his.
But if he did anything underhanded behind his back, then he wouldn't hesitate to be ruthless.
Lan Minghua ignored everything else, closed his eyes, and continued lying down.
Meanwhile, Emperor Xue Ye and Xue Qinghe had arrived at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Inside the main hall, thousands of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School disciples knelt on the ground, their cries shaking the heavens. Upon seeing this scene, Emperor Xueye's pupils trembled violently.
"Has Sect Master Ning really met with misfortune?!"
On the way here, he had clung to a last glimmer of hope, believing it was a false report from the Spirit Hall.
But witnessing the state of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School disciples firsthand, he finally accepted the news of Ning Fengzhi's demise.
He staggered and fell back into his seat.
Just then, a Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School disciple, his face still streaked with tears, appeared.
He respectfully said, "Your Majesty, Elder Bone requests your presence in the main hall. He will tell you everything you want to know."
Emperor Xueye nodded and ordered, "Go in. I want to see who harmed Sect Master Ning, and that person must pay the price."
Inside the main hall, Bone Douluo's face was terribly grim.
"Didn't Fengzhi say that the three upper sects were allies? Why haven't the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Clear Sky Clan responded at all!"
The message had been sent long ago, but there had been no reply.
Just then, Emperor Xueye and his entourage entered the main hall.
Emperor Xueye looked at the gloomy-faced Bone Douluo and sighed, "Your Majesty Bone Douluo, please accept my condolences."
Bone Douluo nodded in response, then said indifferently,
"Your Majesty, please ask whatever you wish to know. I may be very busy from now on."
"Your Majesty Bone Douluo, I want to know who was responsible for the death of Sect Master Ning? Could it be the Spirit Hall?" Emperor Xueye asked in a deep voice.
Bone Douluo shook his head and said, "It wasn't the Spirit Hall, it was a Title Douluo named Lan Minghua."
"What?! A Title Douluo is so audacious! Isn't he afraid of the retaliation from the Three Upper Sects and the Heaven Dou Empire?!"
Emperor Xueye was shocked, never expecting that Ning Fengzhi's death wasn't the work of the Spirit Hall.
Xue Qinghe's pupils shrank, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes.
"It wasn't that madwoman? Who exactly is this Lan Minghua?!"
He thought to himself, racking his brains but still unable to come up with this.
Upon hearing Emperor Xueye's words, Bone Douluo smiled bitterly to himself.
They've already killed Feng Zhi outright, and you're still asking if they're afraid of retaliation from the Three Upper Sects and the Heaven Dou Empire?
If they were truly afraid, none of this would have happened.
However, Bone Douluo patiently shared the intelligence he had gathered.
"According to my investigation over the past few days, Lan Minghua comes from a force called the Heavenly Dragon Gang. Including him, the Heavenly Dragon Gang has at least two Title Douluos."
"What?! Two Title Douluos?!"
Emperor Xueye was dumbfounded. So he was the clown.
The other party himself was a Title Douluo, and the power behind him was at least comparable to the Three Upper Sects.
He should be the one who's afraid.
However, Emperor Xueye was ultimately the ruler of a nation, and quickly calmed down, asking in a deep voice,
"Then, Your Majesty Bone Douluo, what are your thoughts?"
"Of course, I want to avenge Feng Zhi. I want to destroy that so-called Heavenly Dragon Gang, and I hope Your Majesty will lend the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School a hand." Bone Douluo didn't mince words.
Emperor Xueye frowned, worried: "The Heaven Dou Empire and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School can win, but the price they have to pay might be too high."
Attacking a force with at least two Title Douluos wouldn't come cheap.
The Heaven Dou Empire wouldn't let itself be severely weakened by Ning Fengzhi.
After all, the Spirit Hall and the Star Luo Empire were always watching with predatory eyes.
Bone Douluo understood Emperor Xueye's concerns and leaned closer to whisper,
"Your Majesty, you only need to have someone do this..."
Meanwhile, within the Clear Sky Sect, things were also very unsettled.
Tang Hao had woken up.
Tang Xiao finally breathed a sigh of relief and asked with concern,
"Brother Hao, who injured you like this? Could it be the Spirit Hall?!" (
These two chapters are a bit slow-paced; the next chapter will be faster. I was still a bit drunk last night, and my head is still heavy when I wake up.
