Douluo Continent: On Becoming a God Through Science

Chapter 52 Notting's gang of children bullies the young and the old is powerless.

He spent an entire night searching and finally found the most suitable spirit beast for his disciple Tang San's first spirit ring—the Mandragora Snake!

The sense of accomplishment and mission brought Yu Xiaogang a sense of satisfaction and happiness, like a withered tree coming back to life. With a chrysanthemum-like bright smile, she hurriedly rushed to the student dormitory.

Not finding his beloved mistress in Dormitory 7, he heard the commotion and rushed over.

What a coincidence! His entire life right now, his beloved disciple Tang San, is indeed right here!

"Um?"

Seeing the inexplicably awkward expression on Tang San's face, Yu Xiaogang, with her disheveled hair, was puzzled. Turning her head, she saw Xiao Wu's disgusted expression and immediately her mood brightened: "It's you, that ill-mannered little girl!"

Xiao Wu stood with her hands on her hips, her imposing aura unyielding, glaring fiercely at Yu Xiaogang: "You're the one who's rude! I've already inquired, you're not a teacher at our academy at all, how dare you swagger into the student dormitory like this! My brave comrades, can you tolerate such a scoundrel shouting like this on our turf!?"

At this moment, with Tang San's commotion, the students in Dormitory 6 got up, whether willingly or unwillingly.

Xiao Wu's battle cry ignited their fighting spirit.

He cried out, "Absolutely not!"

Yu Xiaogang stared in astonishment as her children rolled off the bed and fixed their gazes on her.

How could Mu Feng, Xiao Wu's number one lackey, miss the opportunity to curry favor with Xiao Wu?

While the other lackeys were still using their eyes to intimidate her, this brute had already charged through Yu Xiaogang's blind spot, making strange "waaaaa" noises.

"you!?"

Unlike the stunned Yu Xiaogang, Tang San remained calm and immediately spotted Mu Feng trying to steal the teacher's buttocks, a cold glint flashing in his eyes.

With a spring of its legs, it unleashed astonishing speed to intercept the enemy halfway through their journey.

"Get out of the way!" Mu Feng looked at the thin and small Tang San in front of him, thinking he was just an ordinary farm boy. He only had Yu Xiaogang in his eyes and didn't pay much attention to Tang San. He reached out to push him aside.

Facing Mu Feng, who was two heads taller than him, Tang San not only did not avoid him, but also took the initiative to reach out his hand.

He used the Crane Control and Dragon Capture technique to directly neutralize the force brought by Mu Feng's charge, and then suddenly released his grip.

"Um?"

Just as Mu Feng was wondering what was going on, he felt the world turn upside down.

When he came to his senses, he was slammed to the ground with a thud, letting out a painful scream.

However, just as Tang San was stopping Mu Feng, the second group of lackeys had already arrived in front of Yu Xiaogang.

Yu Xiaogang was, after all, an adult. They only heard a sound but did not see Mu Feng being instantly knocked down by Tang San, so they did not back down.

Looking at the three children baring their teeth and claws as they pounced on her, Yu Xiaogang felt somewhat at a loss.

Even though he was already a Great Soul Master, he could have easily taken them down even if he only relied on his physical abilities.

But Yu Xiaogang had no combat experience whatsoever.

He had a lot of theories, but his practical skills were practically nonexistent. After being expelled from the Spirit Hall, when he formed the Golden Iron Triangle with Flander and Liu Erlong, he completely hid behind the two of them.

So he was worried that he might hurt the children if he didn't control his strength, and he was in a dilemma.

Of course, this wasn't because he had any respect for the elderly or care for the young. He was just worried that if he hurt any of the students in the academy, even with the dean's connections, he might still be expelled from the academy. After all, he had only been eating for free and doing nothing, which had already aroused the dissatisfaction of many teachers.

Hesitating and wavering, three Soul Masters who didn't even have Soul Rings or the ability to use Martial Soul Possession stepped forward and began punching and kicking him.

Even without the presence of a martial spirit, the children's strength is comparable to that of a weaker adult after the martial spirit enhances their vitality.

Although it didn't actually injure Yu Xiaogang, it still made her feel quite painful.

"teacher!"

Seeing his teacher being beaten, Tang San felt as if the pain were his own. His eyes widened in fury, and he roared inwardly, "You disrespectful brats, you deserve to die!!!"

"Big Black!"

Just as he was about to make his move, Xiao Wu, who had just seen Mu Feng being knocked down, roared and rushed out.

She glared fiercely at Tang San: "You're the one who hit him!?"

Seeing Xiao Wu's angry expression because Mu Feng had been beaten, Tang San felt a pang of jealousy. Forgetting about his teacher for a moment, he snorted, "He tried to attack my teacher. What's wrong with me taking him down?"

"I don't care about you! It was wrong of you to lay a hand on Big Black!"

Reason is meaningless when it comes to Xiao Wu, this wild and untamed girl.

No sooner had she finished speaking than Xiao Wu burst forth in front of Tang San, her right knee bent and her toe aimed straight at Tang San's chin.

What a great speed!

The speed that Xiao Wu displayed shocked even Tang San.

However, having cultivated the Purple Demon Eye, his dynamic vision was extraordinary, and he eventually reacted and dodged to the side.

There's no doubt that Tang San would take action against Xiao Wu, but he hesitated about how much to do so.

Perhaps it was because of his initial impression that Xiao Wu was originally there to help him that he still felt that Xiao Wu was a kind-hearted girl.

Or perhaps he's just hypocritical, thinking that Mu Feng, who attacked the teacher, was guilty of a heinous crime, while Xiao Wu, who repeatedly spoke rudely to the teacher, was only there because of a misunderstanding between them.

In short... Tang San felt that he couldn't knock Xiao Wu to the ground like he did with Mu Feng.

His feet moved with incredible agility, drawing an arc on the ground as if he were a compass, completing a natural turn. Then, he kicked Xiao Wu's knee with his right foot while simultaneously reaching for her shoulders with both hands, intending to subdue her in the process.

Tang San's movements were concise and sharp, and anyone with combat experience would applaud them.

But Xiao Wu seemed to have eyes in the back of her head. Suddenly, she leaned forward and fell down. Then, she braced herself with her hands on the ground, stood upside down, twisted her waist, swung her legs, and unleashed a swift spinning kick.

Tang San's expression changed immediately. He firmly planted his right foot, which had missed its mark, as a support, and quickly retracted his hands to block.

Bang!

Due to the interaction force, the two people were pulled apart by a distance.

Xiao Wu turned around nimbly and stood at attention, her gaze towards Tang San filled with curiosity and a fighting spirit.

After a period of standoff, Xiao Wu's expression softened, and she exclaimed in admiration, "Not bad! This is the first time I've met someone who can fight me so evenly. My name is Xiao Wu, what's yours?"

Feeling Xiao Wu's approval, Tang San was inexplicably happy despite their current hostility. His face flushed, and he replied, "My name is Tang San."

Just then, Tang San heard a ghostly, hoarse voice coming from behind him.

"The mistress..."

It was as if it were demanding a life.

Tang San shuddered and turned around to see his teacher's face, which was so bruised and swollen that it was unrecognizable.

"Help……"

Several exhausted children were hanging on his body, as if they were stuck in some kind of quagmire, struggling to reach out their hands to Tang San.

If Yu Xiaogang still had the strength, even buried among the children, she would surely shout in a decaying voice, "Xiao San, why are you just watching?! Have you really betrayed me?!"
