Tang San had barely finished speaking when Ning Rongrong interrupted him coldly and without any politeness, her aura even stronger than his:
"So many eyes saw it all. Yu Xiaogang got angry and tried to hit me first! Did you expect me to just stand there and take this piece of trash's beating? I was just acting in self-defense!"
Ning Rongrong pointed down at Yu Xiaogang, who was being supported by Tang San, her tone filled with undisguised contempt:
"Furthermore, Yu Xiaogang is an old man in his fifties who claims to be a teacher and a role model. After his shameful deeds from back then were exposed, he not only showed no remorse but also tried to hit women, including a defenseless young girl like me!"
"Absolutely shameless! Coward!"
These two words were like two mountains pressing down on Yu Xiaogang's head, making him feel ashamed and indignant, yet he couldn't utter a single word in rebuttal.
Tang San opened his mouth, but for a moment he was speechless.
Although he was protective of his own, the teacher had indeed struck first, and logically, he couldn't offer any defense for Yu Xiaogang.
Seeing Tang San's discomfiture, Ning Rongrong felt incredibly pleased, and she decided to be blunt:
"Tang San, back in Soto City, didn't you always wonder why Xuan Hao and I disliked you, our so-called teacher, from the very beginning, and why I even argued and confronted him face to face?"
Ning Rongrong sneered repeatedly: "Didn't you also always wonder why, back in that small restaurant on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, Brother Xuan Hao didn't give your teacher any face at all and directly slapped him across the face in front of so many people?"
She pointed to the disheveled Yu Xiaogang on the ground, "This is the reason!"
"A coward who knows how to run away like an ostrich when faced with problems, leaving all the mess and gossip to a woman!"
"A piece of trash who doesn't even have the most basic manly responsibility and doesn't dare to take the slightest responsibility!"
"This kind of person doesn't deserve to swagger around with the halo of 'master' and swindle people. He even has the audacity to point fingers at us!"
"Does he deserve it?!"
Tang San felt his face burning with embarrassment after being mercilessly berated by Ning Rongrong.
Out of respect for his teacher, he instinctively wanted to say a few words in defense of Yu Xiaogang and save face.
However, when Tang San opened his mouth, he found that he had no way to refute it.
Based on the facts revealed by Ning Rongrong, Yu Xiaogang is not only completely in the wrong in this matter, but can even be described as despicable and cowardly.
For a grown man to desert his post, leaving a woman to face public condemnation alone, is despicable by any moral standard.
Tang San took a deep breath and could only cast a hopeful glance at Yu Xiaogang beside him: "Teacher, there must be some other hidden story or hardship involved, right?"
Yu Xiaogang's face was swollen on one side from Ning Rongrong's slap, and he felt extremely aggrieved.
He looked around in a circle.
At this moment, both the teachers of Blue Tyrant Academy and the students of Shrek Academy were staring at him with strange, suspicious, and even contemptuous eyes.
Yu Xiaogang knew very well that if he bowed his head and admitted defeat today, letting Ning Rongrong label him a "coward," he would never be able to hold his head high again in this academy!
Even more fatal was Tang San's reaction.
Yu Xiaogang knows his direct disciple all too well.
Although Tang San appears sensible on the surface, he is actually an extremely stubborn and inflexible person at heart.
He places particular importance on words like "responsibility" and "duty," especially when it comes to romantic relationships and those close to him, where he exhibits an almost demanding protectiveness and sense of responsibility.
If he cannot provide a reasonable explanation for what happened today, Tang San will definitely develop an indelible estrangement and disappointment towards him as his teacher in the future.
Tang San was Yu Xiaogang's last and only hope to turn the tide in his life!
As long as Tang San can become a talent and become famous throughout the world, all the rumors, ridicule and contempt that once surrounded him will instantly disappear as he is the "theoretical master who has cultivated an unparalleled genius"!
But if Tang San harbors resentment towards him because of what happened today, or even disowns him as his teacher, then Yu Xiaogang's life will truly be over.
Thinking of this, a resolute glint flashed in Yu Xiaogang's eyes.
He raised the back of his hand and fiercely wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, forcing himself to stand up straight again, adopting a haughty and insulted posture:
"Ning Rongrong, this is a private matter between the three of us. It's none of your business to interfere!"
"Huh? It's not my turn?"
Ning Rongrong sneered: "Master, if you are really just passersby, I naturally wouldn't bother with your trivial matters. I'd rather not waste my breath on you."
Moreover, everyone present knows that I have always wanted to represent the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in establishing a cooperation with Tang San on hidden weapons, and Tang San values you as his teacher.”
Ning Rongrong pointed at Tang San, "I've made such a fuss here today, even slapping you in public, which is practically the same as offending Tang San to death! This deal is completely ruined!"
"However, in order to seek justice for Dean Erlong, I, Ning Rongrong, will have no regrets today!"
Ning Rongrong stepped forward, pressing him relentlessly: "Furthermore, Master, since you say I have no right to criticize you, fine! As long as you can give a sufficient and justifiable reason in front of everyone today for your cowardly act of abandoning women back then, I, Ning Rongrong, will kneel down and kowtow to you on the spot to admit my mistake, let alone apologize!"
"But the problem is... can you even bring yourself to say those filthy thoughts out loud?!"
Faced with Ning Rongrong's aggressive demeanor, Yu Xiaogang took a deep breath and tried to make his voice sound sorrowful and helpless: "Ning Rongrong, you are just a young girl, used to a life of ease and comfort. How could you possibly understand the hardships I went through and the helplessness I had back then?"
"I am just a Great Soul Master with insufficient innate soul power, not even level 30! And back at the wedding, it was my second uncle, Yu Luomian, who personally stepped in to stop it! You all know Erlong's temper; she has a strong personality. For my sake, she even threatened to sever her father-daughter relationship with Yu Luomian on the spot!"
Yu Xiaogang's voice suddenly rose, as if he were the victim who had suffered a tremendous injustice:
"If I hadn't left immediately, given Erlong's stubborn nature, she would never have given up so easily! In that case, my second uncle, who was completely enraged, would have really killed me on the spot!"
Chapter 292 To deal with shameless scoundrels, you need a villain like Xuan Hao!
……
"Pfft-"
Ning Rongrong was so angry at his words that she almost laughed until tears streamed down her face: "So what? Just because you were afraid your second uncle would kill you, you didn't hesitate to leave Dean Erlong alone at the wedding and run away like a stray dog?!"
"I'm not afraid to die!" Yu Xiaogang shouted, his neck red. "I can stay, I can even die for her! But if my second uncle really kills me at the wedding, what will happen to Erlong?!"
Yu Xiaogang looked around at everyone, feeling more and more justified as he spoke: "Given Erlong's temper, if I died in front of her, she would absolutely go insane! She would turn against her own father, and it might even escalate into a tragedy of father and daughter killing each other!"
"Furthermore, have you considered what would happen to my father, Yu Yuanzhen, if my second uncle really killed me?"
He is not only the leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Clan, but also my biological father!
If I die at my second uncle's hands, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan will inevitably descend into chaos. Wouldn't that put my father and Erlong in the same predicament?!
Yu Xiaogang's "eloquent speech" plunged the entire cafeteria into a deathly silence.
Ning Rongrong was utterly shocked by this shameless and sophistry.
She pointed at Yu Xiaogang's nose, her fingers trembling slightly, speechless with anger, unable to utter a single word for a long time!
How could someone so easily disguise and glorify their desertion and cowardice as enduring humiliation for the sake of their lover and the greater good of the sect?
How could there be such shameless and utterly deceitful people in this world?!
"You...you are utterly shameless!" Ning Rongrong's eyes turned red with anger, and she rolled up her sleeves, ready to rush up and give this shameless old man a few more slaps.
Xiao Wu, who was standing to the side, reacted quickly and grabbed her tightly, whispering, "Rongrong, calm down! You can't fight anymore, or we'll go from being in the right to being in the wrong."
Ning Rongrong's chest heaved with anger as she gritted her teeth and growled, "I'm so angry! If I had known this old bastard was so good at arguing, I should have dragged Brother Xuanhao over too! To deal with this shameless scoundrel who spouts sophistry, we need a villain like Brother Xuanhao who has no sense of martial ethics to teach him a lesson!"
The other teachers present also remained silent.
Although everyone could tell that Yu Xiaogang's words were a complete fallacy of sophistry and unreasonable argument.
However, if you insist on refuting his logic literally, it seems that you really can't find any absolute flaws.
After all, if Yu Xiaogang had really stayed back then, and Yu Luomian had actually killed him to save face for the sect, then Liu Erlong and Yu Yuanzhen would indeed have been in a dilemma.
Although this guy ran away because of cowardice, he insists that he did it for the greater good and sacrificed himself. On the surface, you can't completely refute his logic.
However, Yu Xiaogang's shameless sophistry completely exhausted the last bit of sympathy everyone had for him.
Actually, if Yu Xiaogang hadn't refuted and had openly admitted his cowardice, people would have found reasons to defend him.
After all, he was just a Great Soul Master with a mutated martial soul and the lowest combat power.
Faced with the oppressive aura of a top-tier expert like Yu Luomian, and the suffocating pressure from his family, it was understandable that a weakling like him would choose to flee out of fear. Although it was dishonorable, it was only human nature and there was nothing wrong with it.
Most of the teachers present were quite old, having spent half their lives in the world of Soul Masters, and had seen all sorts of ups and downs.
In their youth, they had also seen couples who were willing to risk everything for love and live happily ever after;
I have also seen people who, faced with life-or-death crises and family pressure, ultimately chose to compromise or eke out a living.
They have long since passed that hot-blooded age of black and white thinking, and no longer react with the same strong moral condemnation as young people would to the latter's retreat.
On the contrary, they can understand the helplessness and powerlessness in the adult world.
To die for love?
This statement sounds easy to say, but it also sounds very dramatic.
But in the face of harsh reality, most bystanders would think that someone who risks their life for so-called love is too naive and irresponsible.
However, Yu Xiaogang's mistake was that, in order to rationalize his escape and to save face, he shamelessly resorted to sophistry!
This despicable act of wanting to have your cake and eat it too has completely shattered any remaining tolerance and understanding in people's hearts.
Although Yu Xiaogang felt the increasingly cold gazes around him, he knew that by doing this, he had blocked his way out and his popularity in the academy.
But he had no choice.
Ning Rongrong clearly wasn't going to let him off so easily. If he had chosen to back down and use his weakness to gain sympathy, given Ning Rongrong's relentless nature, she would have definitely continued to dig up more old grievances to humiliate him!
He had no idea how much leverage this girl still held against him.
Therefore, even if it's just sophistry and unreasonable arguments, he has to use a set of grand and righteous rhetoric about "considering the overall situation" to forcefully shut Ning Rongrong up.
Moreover, at this moment, Yu Xiaogang no longer cared about what others thought.
As long as he can keep Tang San's mind at ease, and as long as Tang San doesn't doubt him because of this, then all the price he pays will be worthwhile.
He knows Tang San very well.
Tang San is indeed very principled when it comes to responsibility and commitment, but at the same time, he is not the kind of person who is completely driven by emotions.
After hearing his own elaborate explanation of his "good intentions," even if others thought it was just sophistry, Tang San, from the disciple's perspective, would largely choose to believe and understand his teacher's "helpless move."
that's enough.
Just as Yu Xiaogang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that he had finally managed to win back some ground in the debate and was preparing to leave the scene, he realized that...
Na'er, who had been sitting quietly in the corner like a delicate porcelain doll, suddenly put down her teacup and slowly stood up.
"You're quite good at using sophistry."
Na'er's voice was ethereal and cool, lacking Ning Rongrong's intense anger, yet possessing a penetrating power that struck straight to the soul.
