Chapter 318 - Douluo: Emerald Poison Emperor [318]
Looking at Chen Ming's indifferent expression, Li Yusong gripped his Dragon Pattern Staff tightly, almost wanting to smack this guy on the head in front of him.
But then he thought about how Shrek Academy had offended him, especially considering his connection to the Poison Douluo, Dugu Bo—known as the strongest poison master in the history of the Poison Soul Masters. Li Yusong quickly put away his martial soul, fearing that he might end up being targeted.
Seeing Li Yusong's reaction, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but pout. Her curiosity about Shrek Academy instantly diminished. She simply pulled Little Wu and started walking toward Chen Ming, giving up on the idea of enrolling altogether.
But who could have guessed that just as Li Yusong had no objections and even secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Tang San suddenly stepped forward for some unknown reason.
"Stop! Are you just going to leave like this?"
Tang San reached out to block Ning Rongrong, his face full of righteousness.
"While the academy isn't as strict as sects, it's also not a place you can come and go as you please. Even though you're not officially Shrek Academy students yet, you're still prospective students. But when the academy was being slandered, instead of defending it, you even showed approval."
"This is an insult to Shrek Academy. You can't just leave so easily."
Hearing Tang San's words, Chen Ming and Ah Yin fell silent, Ning Rongrong and Little Wu fell silent, the snooping Tang Hao fell silent, and even Li Yusong fell silent. Apart from Xiao Wu, who stood by Tang San with a "my brother is always right" expression, everyone else looked at Tang San with strange gazes.
Especially Li Yusong. He couldn't understand it at all. Why would this kid—who hadn't even officially enrolled or passed the entrance test—jump out and act like he represented Shrek Academy?
I wouldn't dare offend this group of people, so why are you stepping up to do it?
"You there, kid. Who's your teacher?" Li Yusong asked, suppressing his urge to hit Tang San, trying to figure out his background. Hearing this, Tang San straightened his back and proudly stated his teacher's name.
"My teacher is known as the Grandmaster, Yu Xiaogang, the most outstanding theoretical researcher on the Douluo Continent."
"...Yu Xiaogang? Oh... forget it."
Hearing this unfamiliar name that didn't belong to a high-ranking soul master, Li Yusong instinctively wanted to summon his Dragon Pattern Staff and smack Tang San to shut him up. But just before he acted, Li Yusong suddenly remembered that he might have heard this name before.
When Flender had traveled across the Douluo Continent, he had been part of a trio with two other companions, known for their "Golden Iron Triangle" martial soul fusion technique. Among this Golden Iron Triangle, there did seem to be someone called Yu Xiaogang. And if Tang San was saying his teacher recommended him to enroll in Shrek Academy, then...
Does that mean this kid has the right to represent Shrek? How strange.
Li Yusong felt something was off but couldn't put his finger on it. Regardless, his initial resentment toward Tang San dissipated, and he even started to feel a slight fondness for him.
"No wonder you're the Grandmaster's student. No wonder you're the disciple of the Dean's good brother. Kid, you're right."
"Thank you for the compliment, Senior." Hearing that his teacher was the Dean's brother, Tang San's gaze showed a moment of clarity. He now understood why his teacher had turned down invitations from all the intermediate and advanced soul master academies, insisting that he study at Shrek.
However, watching Tang San and Li Yusong seemingly hit it off, Ning Rongrong felt a surge of anger building up inside her.
The little witch of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan wasn't just a nickname. As Ning Fengzhi's precious daughter, Ning Rongrong was proud and eccentric. While not malicious by nature, she was far from easygoing.
Originally, Ning Rongrong had decided to let the matter slide, thinking she would simply leave this nauseating Shrek Academy. But now, out jumped an idiot to lecture her from a self-righteous pedestal?
Did they think she was a pushover?

Looking at Tang San, who was full of self-importance, Ning Rongrong rudely pointed at his nose and scolded him.
"Are you two putting on an act? I only handed over a few Gold Soul Coins and had my bone age checked. I never even said for sure that I was joining. And now you're jumping out here pretending to be some big shot? Who do you think you are? Yu Xiaogang? I've never even heard of any great figure or famous soul master called Yu Xiaogang on the continent."
"In my opinion, he's probably just some nobody or a fraud trying to pass himself off as someone important!"
"The world is vast, but I'm not the center of it. And who are you? We're not family, we're not friends, and I don't even know you. So why do you think you have the right to butt into my business? Do you think you're a big deal? Or did you fall off the stairs as a child and leave your brain behind, never thinking things through ever since?"
"You're sharp-tongued! I'll discipline you on behalf of your family!"
Hearing Ning Rongrong's outburst, a cold glint flashed in Tang San's eyes. He decided that Ning Rongrong, who had insulted Shrek, his teacher, and himself, deserved to die.
However, considering the reputation of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan, Tang San didn't dare to go all out, fearing retribution from the clan. Instead, he let out a furious roar and used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to quickly approach Ning Rongrong, intending to teach her a painful lesson.
Who could have expected that Tang San would attack without warning?
Given the speed of Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track and the suddenness of Tang San's move, Little Wu, who was supposed to protect Ning Rongrong, didn't have time to summon her martial soul. Tang San's palm was already swinging toward Ning Rongrong's face.
Just as Tang San thought he was about to give this girl a harsh lesson, he suddenly felt his hand being gripped tightly, as if locked in an iron clamp. No matter how much strength he exerted, he couldn't move forward an inch.
Before Tang San could instinctively release his hidden weapons, a strange and powerful force shook him. His entire body was thrown backward by his wrist. Under the force's bizarre influence, Tang San found himself unable to move his body or circulate his soul power, and he was about to crash to the ground.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu rushed forward on tiptoe, intending to catch Tang San with her body. But as soon as she made contact with him, it was as if her abdomen had been struck by a heavy punch. She was sent flying backward, slamming hard into the ground. Before she could catch her breath, Tang San landed heavily on her.
At that moment, Xiao Wu's mouth opened wide, saliva flying everywhere, and her eyes almost popped out of their sockets. Although she wasn't in mortal danger, every part of her body—from limbs to internal organs—felt excruciatingly painful. Her once-beautiful face twisted in agony.
PS: I feel like many fanfiction authors don't like Xiao Wu. I guess it's the original author's fault. Compared to the other heroines in Soul Land 1, Xiao Wu is described as only average in terms of appearance, despite being the main heroine.
