Back at the hotel.
Seeing the anger on Wu Qi's face, Changkong could not help asking, "Brother Wu, what happened?"
Since getting to know him, he had rarely seen Wu Qi lose his temper.
This time, Wu Qi was truly displeased.
But he would not let someone like Yu Xiaogang disturb his state of mind.
After taking a few deep breaths, he calmly recounted what had happened.
After listening, Ning Rongrong's expression darkened. "As expected, I knew Tang San didn't have good intentions."
Any strong figure might want to take a genius as a disciple, but what was Yu Xiaogang? A mere Spirit Grandmaster trying to take a gifted Spirit Elder as a disciple was that really teaching, or just trying to make himself look good?
Suddenly, Ning Rongrong thought of something. "Could this Yu Xiaogang be the son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's leader?"
"When I was at the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, Grandpa Jian told me stories about him."
Wu Qi nodded. "Most likely."
"This old man carries both the arrogance of someone from a powerful family and the inferiority of a weak person."
"Alright, let's leave it at that. Don't let unimportant people affect your mood."
Ning Rongrong said with relief, "Brother Wu Qi, did you already know what Tang San is like? If I had signed a cooperation agreement with him just now, I might have lost quite a bit of money."
Wu Qi shook his head. "No. I only meant that the hidden weapons he mentioned can be replicated in the future. There's no need to let him profit from us."
On this continent, there was no concept of intellectual property protection. As long as the principles could be understood, they could be replicated freely.
Wu Qi already had a plan in mind, though it would cause some trouble for Tang San later.
Early the next morning.
Flender brought Yu Xiaogang before the Shrek Six.
After being "rejected" by Wu Qi, Yu Xiaogang was in a very bad mood. He wore a sour expression, looking at everyone as if they owed him a large sum of money.
Before Flender could speak, Ma Hongjun muttered, "Boss Dai, who is this guy? Why is he acting so full of himself?"
Dai Mubai shook his head.
Looking carefully at Yu Xiaogang, he could sense that the man was only at Level 29.
Among Shrek Academy's teachers, even the weakest was at least a Spirit Emperor. Yu Xiaogang clearly was not a new teacher.
If he were a new student, then he was far too old.
At such an age and still not having broken through to Spirit Elder, his future was already set.
Seeing this, Tang San coughed lightly, interrupting everyone's speculation.
After Flender's introduction, they finally learned Yu Xiaogang's identity and background.
"Teacher, is this a joke? You want him to teach us?" Ma Hongjun complained.
Letting an older Spirit Grandmaster stand above them, how could that be acceptable?
With their talent, they were destined to become top Spirit Masters on the continent.
If others learned that they had once been taught by a Spirit Grandmaster of such level, it would be embarrassing.
Since Flender had already decided to entrust the teaching to Yu Xiaogang, he naturally supported him.
"Hongjun, Xiaogang will be your teacher from now on. Is this how you treat your elders?"
"Although Xiaogang's Spirit Power Level is not outstanding, his achievements in Spirit Master theory are unmatched. Tang San is his student, just look at Tang San's current strength. How many of you can match him?"
For a moment, the Shrek students fell silent.
Tang San stepped forward and spoke in support of Yu Xiaogang. "My current strength is all thanks to my teacher. Xiao Wu's current strength is also due to his guidance."
"With Teacher leading our training, our progress will only become faster. Don't forget the Spirit Master Tournament in two years. Under his guidance, we will definitely achieve good results."
Hearing Tang San's words, the others were stunned.
They all knew Tang San's strength very well. Being able to train such a talented individual meant Yu Xiaogang must have some ability.
Yu Xiaogang's expression eased slightly. With his hands behind his back and chest lifted, he said, "At your headmaster's invitation, I have come to serve as a teacher at Shrek Academy…"
To lead the group effectively, he needed to establish authority.
His own strength would not be enough to suppress them, so as his direct disciple, Tang San needed to step forward at such a moment.
"Dai Mubai, Tang San—step forward. You will have a match. All methods are allowed. I want to see the gap in your current strength."
Yu Xiaogang knew about the hidden weapons Tang San possessed. By removing restrictions, he intended to ensure Tang San's victory.
Although Tang San's third Spirit Ring was not from the Spirit Beasts Yu Xiaogang had selected, it had granted the Blue Silver Grass exceptional toughness.
He believed that as long as Dai Mubai was caught, Tang San could easily defeat him with his close-combat skills.
Even if that failed, Tang San's hidden weapons were not to be underestimated.
Now that he was here, he would not allow Tang San to remain unnoticed within the group. Tang San had to become the leader.
Unfortunately, Dai Mubai had enrolled several years earlier, and his position and strength were not easy to shake.
Not shaking Dai Mubai's position as the "big brother" did not mean Tang San would remain beneath others.
The true leader of a team was its spiritual leader.
Moreover, the higher Tang San's position within the team, the more Yu Xiaogang's own standing would rise above the other teachers.
Suotuo Hotel.
A letter from the Heaven Dou Empire was delivered into Wu Qi's hands through a deacon of the Spirit Hall in Suotuo City.
Seeing the signature on the letter, Wu Qi quickly opened it.
As he had expected, Xue Qinghe had already arranged their identities and summoned them to return to Heaven Dou City immediately.
With their identity issue resolved, they could now openly participate in Spirit Battles at the Heaven Dou Grand Spirit Arena.
Compared to the Suotuo City Grand Spirit Arena, the overall strength and quality of participants at the Heaven Dou Grand Spirit Arena were on an entirely different level.
Only by fighting strong opponents could one improve. On the contrary, constantly facing weaker opponents would not only fail to improve strength but might even cause it to decline.
After informing the other two, Ning Rongrong hesitated. "Brother Wu Qi, are we going back so soon?"
She had finally escaped from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and had not had enough fun yet. If she returned now, Ning Fengzhi would keep a close watch on her, making it much harder to come out again.
Wu Qi saw through her thoughts and smiled. "As long as you can change your previous behavior, I believe Sect Master Ning won't make things difficult for you."
"Besides, we're about to form a Spirit Battle team, and with your ability, you can join any advanced Spirit Master academy."
"With a proper reason, why would Sect Master Ning stop you?"
Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up.
If she lived at the academy, Ning Fengzhi would not be able to control her.
After a pause, she asked, "Brother Wu Qi, have you decided which Spirit Master academy to join? How about I ask my father to invest in building one? Then we can directly participate in the Spirit Master Tournament as the main team."
Wu Qi could not help but widen his eyes.
It was often said that the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect was wealthy, but he had not expected this level of extravagance.
However, the nature of advanced Spirit Master academies was different from that of elementary and intermediate academies.
Graduating from an advanced Spirit Master academy was like graduating from a university, students would then go on to find their own paths.
If such an academy were built, would it not essentially become a source of reserve disciples for the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect?
