If Tang San were being selfish, Han Li could understand, but Yu Xiaogang could only be described as malicious.
Their worldviews were different, something Han Li had understood from the start, so he didn't try to impose his standards on everyone.
He didn't like Tang San, but if he were in Tang San's position, he might have done even worse things. (Talking only about Douluo 1)
But Yu Xiaogang, that guy, Han Li had just felt the urge to kill someone for the first time.
He was truly bad, and the kind of bad where he knew he was bad but still pretended to be righteous.
Although people act for their own interests, otherwise they will be condemned by heaven, but you are a teacher, and currently an assistant teacher? Even in this process, Tang San was just his tool.
Han Li even suspected that if Tang San's background and talent weren't strong enough, Tang San would have become his discarded pawn, kicked away after losing his value. Flander's Shrek Academy was the best example.
Actually, considering the age of Tang San and the others, the next All-Continent Soul Master Competition was their real stage.
In the competition half a year later, whether it was the academy's three education committee members or Qian Renxue, their attitude towards them was focused on participation, mainly looking at their future. Otherwise, they wouldn't have kept them on the second team.
You should know, this isn't the original story. After Xiao Wu was "captured" by the Titan Giant Ape, Tang San didn't encounter a Man-Faced Demon Spider blocking his path this time. Instead, he really encountered an ordinary spider Soul Beast that had been stunned. Of course, he also lost his Eight Spider Lances.
Moreover, this time, because of Han Li's appearance, their "Netherworld White Tiger" hadn't appeared yet.
And after the Royal Fight Team One re-added a proper control-type Soul Master, the Shrek Seven Devils had lost in the previous Soul Duel arena battles. Although in the end, relying on Tang San's individual performance, they barely eliminated a few people, only three members of the Royal Fight Team One remained on the field.
It was also in this match that they showed good potential, and Qin Ming extended an invitation as in the original story.
But now, after he actively failed to persuade his students, he was instigating his disciple to coerce a teammate who had clearly rejected the Martial Soul Fusion Skill through external means, which could be said to be extremely despicable.
Of course, Han Li also admitted that the reason he felt this way was mainly because he had a good impression of Zhu Zhuqing.
"I'm thinking too much. If it really doesn't work, I'll just take the cat away. I want to see what they plan to do next. It's also a good opportunity to decide my future attitude towards them."
Han Li shook his head, casting his thoughts to the back of his mind.
He had come for them in the first place, to improve his subsequent plans, and it wouldn't hurt to treat it as an assessment.
What was certain was that Yu Xiaogang was now definitely at the top of his personal Blacklist, even above Tang San.
In the arena, Tang San first walked towards Dai Mubai.
"Boss Dai."
He greeted with a smile, making Dai Mubai feel much better.
Since coming to Heaven Dou Royal Academy, it could be said that Tang San's attitude towards Dai Mubai had changed the least, just like when they first met.
"Little San, what's the matter with you looking for me?"
Dai Mubai naturally hadn't missed the actions of the master and disciple earlier, and was a little puzzled by Tang San's approach.
Hearing his words, Tang San subconsciously glanced in Zhu Zhuqing's direction, and after discovering that she was still cultivating, he leaned closer to Dai Mubai and lowered his voice: "Boss Dai, are you still angry about her matter?"
There was no need to explain, Dai Mubai knew that the "her" Tang San was talking about was Zhu Zhuqing, and his expression immediately darkened.
"Little San, what? Are you here to make fun of me too?"
There was a hint of anger and questioning in Dai Mubai's voice.
Tang San quickly waved his hand: "Boss Dai, don't misunderstand, I don't mean that at all. It's just that I think there's a problem with the team now, it's become a mess, and it's lost its cohesion. I want to find a way to solve the problem."
"You know me, I want to achieve good results in the All-Continent Soul Master Competition and vindicate the teacher, but this isn't the way to go."
Hearing Tang San's words and seeing his serious expression, Dai Mubai's expression softened slightly. After being together for so long, he knew how much Tang San respected Yu Xiaogang.
Although he didn't know what kind of bewitching medicine Yu Xiaogang, the clown recognized by the Soul Master world, had given to Tang San, who seemed quite shrewd, he naturally chose to follow his lead, considering his strength.
"Little San, since you've said so, I won't hide it from you."
"You know me, for so long, you've seen it too. I've changed my previous style, and even going out for, uh, socializing has become much less. I even have to hide it from others, and even be careful in front of her."
"But look, what has my effort been exchanged for? It's been exchanged for even more indifferent treatment. I, a dignified prince of the Star Luo Empire, have never suffered such treatment."
The more Dai Mubai spoke, the more angry he became, and a burst of explosions came from his fist, obviously using a lot of force.
"The most hateful thing is Ning Rongrong, who actually chose to support her and insisted on opposing me. If it weren't for, forget it, it's very annoying."
After receiving a big slap from Sword Douluo, he could only choose to swallow his anger, otherwise he would really be killed, wouldn't it be a waste for Davis? He understood his father, the Star Luo Empire would never trouble the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School because of him.
Even, the reason he was still here under these circumstances, apart from gambling on Zhu Zhuqing changing her mind and that tiny chance of winning, might not be without the intention of relying on the Heaven Dou Empire's crown prince's promise to survive after defeat.
"What if I said, I have a solution?"
Tang San revealed a smile, looking quite similar to Yu Xiaogang's confident appearance.
"What solution?"
Dai Mubai's spirits lifted; he believed Tang San wouldn't speak without basis.
"Of course it's..."
Tang San leaned in close to his ear and explained in detail the method that the master had said would ensure Ning Rongrong wouldn't be affected, and then unite the others.
At the end, he didn't forget to say to Dai Mubai: "Dai Mubai, you need to lower your stance a bit with Ma Hongjun and Oscar, after all, things are different now."
"You also know that they aren't really rejecting you. Everyone is brothers, and there's no real conflict. It's just that suddenly becoming rich is bound to make them a little cocky. But this matter is beneficial to everyone. They can distinguish between what's important, and they will naturally stand on your side. What do you say?"
Hearing his words, Dai Mubai pondered slightly, feeling that what Tang San said made sense. Moreover, Ma Hongjun and Oscar didn't actually reject him, but they just praised him less than before. On the contrary, he was a bit sensitive due to his unstable emotions.
"Okay, I understand. Thank you, Tang San, I'll pay attention."
Dai Mubai was indeed sincerely grateful to Tang San at this moment. No matter what, if he could really solve Zhu Zhuqing's problem, he would be the biggest beneficiary.
As for the impact this method would have on Zhu Zhuqing, it was completely beyond his consideration.
Women are resources, that's the education he has always received, especially the Zhu Family. If the situation weren't like this, what qualifications would Zhu Zhuqing have to make him lower himself and consider her feelings when doing things?
"It's good that you understand. Then, how about now? Shall we go talk to Ma Hongjun and Oscar?"
Seeing that Dai Mubai's reaction was not bad, Tang San took the opportunity to suggest.
"Okay."
Dai Mubai took a deep breath and patted Tang San's shoulder. With such a good brother, what was there to worry about accomplishing great things?
The two smiled at each other and walked towards Ma Hongjun and Oscar, who were sitting on the ground chatting not far away.
Their actions naturally attracted Ning Rongrong's attention. She poked Xiao Wu and asked curiously, "Xiao Wu, do you know what Tang San and the others are doing? It's so strange. They've looked over here several times just now."
"I don't know. Maybe they're discussing cultivation issues, or maybe the master has something to say to my brother and them."
Xiao Wu turned her head and glanced at the four people who had gathered together, casually replying. Then, she looked at Ning Rongrong with some envy: "It's easy for you, Rongrong. Even if you don't complete the training, the master won't say anything to you. I'm miserable. He's always staring at me and even has my brother supervise me. I can't even slack off."
Xiao Wu was playful by nature and very dissatisfied with the master's behavior. If he weren't her brother's teacher and her brother respected him so much, Xiao Wu would have given him a hard time.
Hmph, Xiao Wu wrinkled her nose in dissatisfaction, venting her emotions.
Hearing her words, Ning Rongrong blinked her eyes and revealed a sweet smile, but did not respond.
After she brought Tang San's hidden weapons back last time, her father originally planned to have more contact with Tang San, and even planned to cooperate with him, but for some reason, after Sword Douluo came once, her father never mentioned it again.
Moreover, Ning Fengzhi had specifically told her to have a good relationship with Tang San, but not to be too close or too distant, to maintain a good distance, and also said that if anything related to Tang San happened, unless it involved the interests of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, she should avoid it.
Although Ning Rongrong had a mischievous personality, she was clear-headed about such matters.
She secretly guessed that Tang San definitely had a background. Coupled with Ning Fengzhi's serious warning, she had restrained herself a lot. Of course, she wouldn't let herself be wronged.
On the other side of the training ground, Tang San and Dai Mubai had already arrived next to Ma Hongjun and Oscar.
Tang San gave Dai Mubai a look, and Dai Mubai immediately stepped forward, looking at the two: "Ma Hongjun, Oscar, it was my fault before. I'm apologizing to you two now."
Big question marks popped up from Ma Hongjun and Oscar's heads. Looking at Dai Mubai's apologetic face, they were a little confused. What was going on? What was Dai Mubai apologizing for? "Ma Hongjun, Oscar, it's like this..."
Seeing that Dai Mubai had already taken the first step, Tang San quickly interjected.
