Douluo Sharingan, I really didn't coerce Xiao Wu!

Chapter 84 begins

"Xiao Gang, what exactly do you want? Stop messing around, okay?" Flander was already getting annoyed.

After the mistress left, he tried to persuade Yu Xiaogang for a long time, but Yu Xiaogang was as stubborn as a donkey, and no one could stand him.

However, it was this very sentence that ignited the master's suppressed anger.

"Flander, what are you saying? Are you saying I, Yu Xiaogang, am being unreasonable?"

Filled with rage and righteous indignation, Yu Xiaogang said in a deep voice, "Your greed for the wealth of a major sect and your willingness to swallow your anger do not mean that I, Yu Xiaogang, am the same as you. Indeed, if you kneel for too long, you will never be able to stand up straight."

He seemed to have been hit where it hurt, rebuking Flander's behavior, saying that for a little money, he actually groveled before Ning Fengzhi, abandoning all dignity.

Yu Xiaogang has a noble character and the pride of a scholar, unlike some people who lack backbone.

Flanders laughed in anger, his pent-up resentment now fully aroused.

He roared in anger, "Greedy? I, Flander, have done right by every child, and my conscience is clear. Do you know how much it costs to have hundreds of students in the academy? Where do you think the funding came from? From your master's hands?"

After a barrage of questions, Yu Xiaogang fell silent, unable to utter a single rebuttal for a long time.

Flander's face was extremely ugly, and he said coldly, "The two dragons entrusted the academy to me, and Shrek Academy is the culmination of my life's work. I, Flander, have a clear conscience and have done right by everyone, including you, Master."

He can be misunderstood by everyone, but you, Yu Xiaogang, cannot.

Memories flooded back. The Shrek Academy facilities in Soto City were rudimentary, but sufficient for teaching students. After meeting Qin Ming, Yu Xiaogang resolutely requested to close the academy and led the children to join the Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

"For the sake of the children's future, I, Flander, risked everything, leading my brothers Zhao Wuji and Li Yusong to fight alongside you. And what was the result? You, Master, were humiliated by Prince Xuexing, and the children left for you, only to be blasted out of the gate by Tiandou like rats."

Shrek Academy was closed, and they couldn't go to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. The teachers and the little monsters were left to wander the streets. In the end, it was Flander who had to swallow his pride and go to find his former best friend, Liu Erlong.

Recalling the heartbreaking events of the past, he felt a surge of anger. He and his brothers had devoted their lives to building Shrek Academy. They could have retired in Soto City, but instead, they took on all the responsibilities for Yu Xiaogang.

Seeing the master sulking there, Flander only belatedly realized that Yu Xiaogang was so selfish, just packing his bags and leaving without taking any responsibility from beginning to end.

He abandoned Erlong when he was young, making her wait for twenty years. You should know that Flander also secretly loved Liu Erlong. Out of brotherhood, he silently stepped back and did not compete or fight for her.

"There's another match tomorrow, don't let it affect the kids. You'd better watch yourself." He snorted coldly and left without looking back.

Flander stormed off, leaving Yu Xiaogang standing there in a daze, looking rather forlorn.

"Xiao Gang, what are you doing here?" Not long after, Liu Erlong, who was returning from an outing, passed by this place and happened to see the master standing there in a daze.

She could clearly sense that something was wrong with Yu Xiaogang; he was trying his best to hide his expression when he saw her, afraid that she would notice something amiss.

"Xiaogang, tell me, what exactly happened!" Liu Erlong was furious. Anyone who dared to touch the man she loved was an idiot.

At the same time, she was furious. Yu Xiaogang was Flander's good friend, after all. Was she just going to watch Xiaogang be bullied like this?

Yu Xiaogang is a man of principle; how could he possibly confide such a thing to a woman, especially something so shameful?

However, under Liu Erlong's persistent questioning, he finally told the truth.

"What a fine Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School! I'll remember this!"

After hearing the whole story, Liu Erlong became even angrier. She didn't think Xiao Gang had done anything wrong at all. On the contrary, Flander was actually helping outsiders to suppress Xiao Gang, which was really hateful.

In her view, even if the master was wrong, what kind of thing is it for Flander to help outsiders? Xiao Gang was, after all, a partner who had gone through thick and thin with them.

"Flander, you get out here right now!"

That day, a roar came from Shrek's base, dark clouds filled the sky, and a lightning dragon more than ten meters long descended from the sky.

……

Chen Xuan was not at the camp; he had returned home and was unaware of all that had happened. When he returned to Shrek Academy, it was already the next day.

morning

As the sun rises, auspicious purple clouds drift from the east, and beautiful rosy clouds fall, painting half the sky with brilliance and splendor, like a golden-red ocean.

The morning sun is as beautiful as a poem or a painting, captivating and enchanting, making one linger and reluctant to leave.

By this time, the Shrek team had almost all assembled, including Flander, Liu Erlong, and Master, and were preparing to head to the competition area.

When Chen Xuan entered the camp, he felt something was strange. The atmosphere was unusually quiet, and there was a faint smell of red medicine in the air.

Flander and Liu Erlong both wore sour faces, refusing to look at each other, as if they had some deep-seated grudge.

"What's going on?" Chen Xuan was bewildered.

The Shrek members all kept their mouths shut, not daring to say anything they shouldn't, for fear of being vented their anger on the spot.

Ning Rongrong jogged over, quickly pulled him aside, and whispered the reason.

"Huh? They're fighting?" Chen Xuan looked bewildered; it seemed he had missed a good show yesterday.

Yesterday, while he was away, Flander and Liu Erlong got into an argument over Master Yu Xiaogang. Neither of them would give in, and they ended up fighting, almost causing the situation to get out of control.

If the Royal Knights hadn't intervened in time, the two would have turned Shrek Camp upside down.

"That's explosive." Chen Xuan lowered his voice as he learned what had happened, afraid of being overheard.

Fortunately, they were quite a distance away, so the Shrek group didn't notice.

One hour later

All teams gathered at the competition venue, including some new faces from teams in other regions.

The academies of Kamikaze, Thunder, and Beast, as well as teams from another region, including Flanders' old rival, the Kingdom of Barak, are also participating.

VIP Stage

With all teams and participants in place, Emperor Xueye, without further delay, immediately announced loudly, "I hereby declare the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Elite Tournament, Qualifying Rounds, to officially begin."

"Dear contestants, show your talent to the fullest!"

"Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor! Long live the Emperor!"

Below, thousands of cavalrymen roared, their momentum as imposing as a mountain, each wielding their long spears with a deafening clang.

The results of the random inspection came out quickly. The first match of the qualifying round was between Thunder Academy and Tianshui Academy, led by Shui Bing'er.

Individual competitions, where one-on-one matches require no teamwork and rely solely on skill, are undoubtedly a boon for players with exceptional individual combat abilities.

Ma Hongjun was eager to try his hand at the game. It was finally his turn to take the stage. Since evolving from the Evil Fire Phoenix, the fat man felt incredibly strong and wouldn't back down even when taking on three opponents at once.

So much so that this guy didn't even respect Captain Dai Mubai, feeling like he could easily crush that white tiger with one hand.

Unfortunately, Shrek Academy got the third match, and their opponent happened to be the Baroque Team, Flanders' arch-rival.

"Hey, isn't this Flander? I didn't expect you to actually lead your amateur academy to the promotion tournament. You've got some skills." Suddenly, an extremely arrogant voice entered the ears of the Shrek students.

Flanders looked up at the sound and saw ten people walking towards him, each one tall and burly, looking menacing.

They all looked alike, with short, upright hair, wheat-colored skin, and a sharp, rebellious air about them.

Enemies meeting are bound to be hostile, and the two sides got into an argument, exchanging harsh words. How could Liu Erlong allow others to insult Shrek Academy? The two, who had been at odds with Flander, had their conflict shifted because of this incident, and their relationship eased.

Chen Xuan yawned, walked to the side, and watched the battle on the arena.

About an hour later, after the first two rounds, it was finally Shrek Academy's turn.
