Douluo V: Starting with daily check-ins, I'm trying to trick Xiao Wu into becoming my wife.

"Am I not worthy?"

Yu Xiaogang felt as if his extremely sensitive inferiority complex had been touched, and his head was spinning.

It took him a long time to realize that he had been rejected. And by a child who was only six years old.

He thought that it might be too abrupt to take the boy as a disciple so soon after meeting him, and that it might frighten the child.

He immediately cleared his throat, walked up to Ao Yin, and said, "Child, don't be afraid! I am an honorary master of Notting Junior Soul Master Academy, not a bad person."

"Child, although you were born with innate full soul power, your staff martial soul is called the [Panlong Staff], an extremely rare mutated martial soul. If it evolves well, it will become a top-tier martial soul, but if you don't understand the principles of evolution, it's just a fire poker!"

"The key lies in whether the dragon patterns on it can be activated, but only those with extremely deep research into dragon-type martial souls can do it!"

Hearing this, Ao Yin raised an eyebrow slightly. He wasn't surprised that Yu Xiaogang recognized his martial spirit, but he was surprised by the evaluation of the [Panlong Staff]!

"A top-tier martial soul?"

At first, Ao Yin thought this level of reward was trash, but he didn't expect it to be so awesome?

As for the principle of martial soul evolution... isn't Yu Xiaogang just self-praising his own wares?

"Is activating the dragon pattern really that difficult?" Ao Yin scratched his head.

"Difficult! As difficult as climbing to heaven!"

Yu Xiaogang immediately chimed in, patting his chest and declaring, "But you don't need to worry. My family is a top-tier sect, and our family's martial soul is a rare dragon-type martial soul. Naturally, we have a deep understanding of dragon-type martial souls. If you become my disciple, with my guidance, activating the dragon pattern will be a piece of cake!"

"You don't want to possess innate full soul power only to end up as a useless piece of trash, do you?"

Yu Xiaogang became more and more confident as he spoke, and in the end, his tone even carried a hint of... impatience!

After all, not to mention the potential of the Panlong Staff to evolve into a top-tier martial soul, just considering its innate full soul power, only 19 such individuals have been born in the Heaven Dou and Star Luo Empires in the past hundred years.

They were all powerful and influential figures, such as the current Pope of the Spirit Hall, whom he held a grudge against—Bibi Dong!

He wanted to prove himself and let his family, who had looked down on him, and the woman who had despised him, know that he, Yu Xiaogang, was not worthless!

Of course, Yu Xiaogang is inherently disadvantaged on the path of Soul Master, and he is well aware of this. However, in terms of Soul Master theory, he is invincible!

Now all he needs is someone who can prove his theory!

Therefore, when he saw that Ao Yin was born with full soul power and had awakened a top-level martial soul, he immediately decided to take him as his disciple so that he could test his proposed "Ten Core Competencies of Martial Souls Theory".

Ao Yin sneered inwardly, "You're the first person to make finding guinea pigs sound so noble!"

He feigned contemplation and asked, "Master, you said you come from a family with dragon-type martial souls, so your own martial soul must be very powerful, right?"

"Why don't you prove your abilities first?"

"Uh (⊙o⊙)..." Yu Xiaogang was speechless for a moment.

Prove your strength? How do you prove that?

"For example, let me first witness the true 'Dragon's Might'!"

Ao Yin didn't give him a chance to evade the question. Didn't you say you came from a family with a dragon-type martial soul? Didn't you boast that you were very powerful?

If it were an ordinary, unsophisticated child, they might have been completely swayed by Yu Xiaogang's words and become willing guinea pigs for testing martial spirit theories!

However, Ao Yin knew Yu Xiaogang's background perfectly well. His martial soul had absolutely nothing to do with dragons. As for his powerful strength, the only thing he could boast about was his one move—"farting like thunder, earth-shattering Luo Sanpao!"

Ao Yin didn't give Yu Xiaogang a chance to refuse. He went straight to Old Jack's dilapidated carriage and pulled out a gong from somewhere.

He immediately started banging on the doorstep and shouted, "Don't miss out! A master is performing! Give me fifty copper soul coins and see what he's got!"

The crowd, always eager for drama, quickly gathered around, and many recognized Yu Xiaogang.

He exclaimed in surprise, "What? The master is going to demonstrate his skills?"

"You know what, I've never actually seen a theoretically invincible master actually make a move!"

"Young man, here are fifty copper soul coins for you. Quickly, let the master show them off!"

At the entrance of Notting Junior Soul Master Academy, a commotion instantly erupted as many onlookers enthusiastically began showering the area with rewards, throwing around a pile of copper soul coins.

"Village Chief Jack, what are you standing there for? Pick up the money!"

Ao Yin patted the stunned old Jack, which made everyone laugh and cry.

In contrast, Yu Xiaogang, who had been looking proud just moments before, suddenly turned pale.

Asking him to demonstrate his strength in front of so many people is no different from asking him to take off his pants and fart in the street.

How could someone as proud as him actually do such a thing?

His face immediately fell, and he said coldly, "Child, you've gone too far!"

However, Ao Yin was not intimidated by the pressure at all. He simply took the gong and went around collecting money. After filling his bowl to the brim, he stuffed the money into Old Jack's hand.

Yu Xiaogang walked towards the center of the crowd and said with a smile, "Since the master is unwilling to take off his pants to fart, then let me show the master a couple of moves."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Panlong Staff appeared in his hand without him even realizing it. His soul power surged dramatically, and all of his innate level 20 soul power was poured into the staff.

hum-

The moment the soul power was injected into the staff, the dragon patterns, which were originally as black as a fire poker, turned fiery red as if burned by a raging fire. The dragon patterns on it also seemed to come alive at this moment, slowly activating.

One!

Two!

Three!

...

Nine!

The nine dragon patterns activated simultaneously, and under the bright sunlight, they seemed to come alive, constantly intertwining and coiling around the staff, lifelike.

At the same time, the Panlong Staff trembled continuously, and Yu Xiaogang seemed to notice it, his expression changing slightly.

Her voice trembled as she asked, "What are you going to do?"

However, instead of receiving a reply from Ao Yin, he received... a blow from a stick!

Ao Yin unleashed his full power, containing a vast dragon's might, and slammed down fiercely.

Yu Xiaogang's heart skipped a beat. Without thinking, he roared, "Three Cannons!"

A short, stout, purple-haired flying pig darted out.

Crackling sound—

The air was compressed to an extreme, producing a sonic boom.

A dragon staff arrived in an instant, and two yellow soul rings rose around Yu Xiaogang at the same time, pushing his soul power to its limit.

"His farts are like thunder, a deafening roar, three shots to the heavens and earth, get out of his way!"

The purple-haired flying pig swelled up rapidly, as if it were being inflated, and Luo Sanpao opened his mouth wide!

boom--

A cloud of unknown yellow gas, like the breath of a dragon, suddenly burst forth!

puff--

The Panlong Staff slashed down with immense force, but the yellow gas exploded instantly, as if made of paper. The Panlong Staff moved with unstoppable momentum, as swift as the wind!

It hovered just three inches above Yu Xiaogang's forehead, and a gust of wind as sharp as a knife struck the ground, making his forehead ache!

The room was filled with a foul stench of farts, but Yu Xiaogang seemed oblivious to it, his eyes filled with shock!

"What kind of bullshit master is he? He's nothing special!"

Ao Yin stopped at the crucial moment, leaving behind only a sarcastic remark!

Then he covered his mouth and nose, said a brief goodbye to old Jack, and walked towards the academy on his own!

Even after Ao Yin left, Yu Xiaogang was still in shock, only hearing countless jeers from those around him.

"Hahaha, the master truly lives up to his name! Soul skills are utter nonsense!"

"This is absolutely incredible!"

"That's it? You want to take him as your apprentice?!"

"I've learned something new!"

At that moment, Yu Xiaogang just wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

He put away the three cannons, wanting to escape the world's gaze. He had just turned around and was walking towards the academy when a childish male voice came from behind him!

"Excuse me, are you a master from Notting College?"

"Um?"

Yu Xiaogang turned around unexpectedly and saw a child in blue standing out from the crowd.

Village Chief Jack, who was about to leave this place of trouble, was also slightly taken aback.

He exclaimed in surprise, "A mistress?"
