Chapter 39 Letter
"A thousand-year-old soul ring? This child is a Soul Master?!" a passerby exclaimed in surprise.
"No, that's not right, there seem to be only two."
"How is this possible? Master, didn't you say that the age limit for the second spirit ring is over seven hundred years? What's going on with this child?" The believers who accompanied Yu Xiaogang to parade through the streets to protest against Master Yan Xiao asked the master in disbelief.
The moment Tang San's thousand-year soul ring was revealed, Yu Xiaogang was so frightened that he quickly pushed the person next to him in front of him. Fortunately, Tang San did not use his soul skill to attack him.
Seeing that everyone's attention was focused on him, he coughed to ease the awkwardness.
The believers looked at Yu Xiaogang with expectant faces, hoping that the master would refute the other party's situation, even though the second purple soul ring was really right in front of them.
Yu Xiaogang, with a sinister expression, leaned closer to his followers, but could only hear the sound of his teeth chattering; not a single fart came out.
It's not that Gangzi didn't want to refute it. If it were just Tang San, our Master Yu could still call it a special case. But the second soul rings of these three children are all purple. How can he say that?
"What's going on? It's as you see it. Master Yu's ten core competitive advantages of martial souls—although not many people have yet realized them to prove Master Yu's point of view, Tang San, the test subject of Master Yan Xiao's Blue Silver Theory, has shown you that Master Yu was wrong through his actions." Xiao Yan added fuel to the fire.
Tang San nudged his elder brother helplessly; it seemed his brother particularly liked to make him the center of attention.
"What? You're Tang San, the Great Soul Master who was only 10 years old?"
"Where is Master Yanxiao? Is he in Notting City now?" Gangzi's group of followers surrounded Tang San, but they were all asking questions about Master Yanxiao.
This greatly displeased Yu Xiaogang, who had just begun to feel a sense of subservience. He said irritably:
"What's there to be curious about? They are geniuses with innate full soul power. What do you ordinary people have to compare with them? Just follow me and learn honestly. If you're lucky, you might become a Soul Master in this lifetime."
However, these words backfired, and even Xiao Yan looked at the master with pity.
The gap between commoners and nobles, between ordinary people and geniuses, has always existed. It's just that if you are the one who instigates it, then you will naturally become the target of everyone's criticism.
"What kind of looks are those? I stayed up all night answering your questions, and all I got was one of my ten core theories of martial spirits refuted. So what?"
Tang San remained silent, instead pulling the trigger of the hidden arrow in his sleeve. He reasoned that Notting City was crowded and chaotic, and his current skill with hidden weapons was incredibly fast. Even if he shot Yu Xiaogang in the throat, no one would notice. Now was the perfect opportunity to strike, to prevent Yu Xiaogang from misleading others.
Moreover, his elder brother was going to give a lecture in the city a few days later, and he didn't believe that Yu Xiaogang wouldn't cause trouble. But as soon as he raised his arm, Xiao Yan noticed it.
Xiao Yan stepped in front of Tang San and said softly:
"Xiao San, the fifth general principle of the Xuan Tian Bao Lu: Those who study the Bao Lu should not easily provoke trouble." What Xiao Yan was reciting was naturally the Xuan Tian Bao Lu that Tang San had told him after altering its contents.
"But brother, the next sentence is: 'But if anyone initiates an infringement, he shall be met with thunderous retaliation.'"
"You're just too aggressive. Whether it's academics or soul power cultivation, do you think Yu Xiaogang can still pose a threat to us? Why don't you mention the third principle of the General Principles, the path to death?"
"But brother, this master started disgusting us years ago, and now that he's delivered himself right to our doorstep, how can we let him get away with it?"
"You're not even listening to your elder brother anymore? Of course, you need to teach him a lesson, but it wouldn't hurt to wait a few days. Are you worried that Yan Xiao will be swayed by his beliefs?"
When I first met Tang San when he was six, apart from being a bit ruthless, he was a cute little boy. Now that he's ten, his soul power cultivation is on par with mine, but he often has ideas that contradict mine.
"Let's go, let's save some face for the old scholar. If he doesn't want it in a few days, then don't blame us."
Yu Xiaogang has never been a genius in the theoretical field, and in fact, there shouldn't be any geniuses in the theoretical field at all.
Countless theories are built upon the foundations laid by predecessors. As the saying goes, "collective wisdom is the best policy." What Xiao Yan disliked about Gangzi was that he embellished others' ideas and then claimed them as his own. Why have the ten core theories of martial spirit not been proven to this day?
Since Gangzi copied everything, how can he prove it? It's only when it's someone else's stuff that you're least able to prove it yourself...
"Hey, isn't this our little Vulcan from Notting Academy?"
As soon as Xiao Yan and Tang San entered the student dormitory area, they saw a female student leisurely holding the Rolling Ball Beast in her arms under the great shade of the trees, with someone fanning it with a palm leaf fan.
Upon hearing Xiao Yan's voice, the Rolling Beast, who was enjoying the soft fragrance and warmth of the jade, was so frightened that it jumped off the chair and spontaneously activated Xiao Yan's Tyrannosaurus Rex, running towards the direction of the playground.
"This guy, we were only out for a short while, and he ran from the playground into the arms of a female student. He's getting lazier and lazier." Xiao Yan shook his head.
Ever since Agumon was sent to play a "friendly match" with the older students four years ago, for some reason, the nickname "Little Fire God" has been circulating in Notting Academy.
At first, Xiao Yan didn't take it seriously, but one day on the road, students from the academy pointed at him and said with admiration, "He's the Little God of Fire." Xiao Yan naturally didn't dare to accept it. He had been keeping a low profile for so long, how could he have gotten the nickname "God"?
Xiao Wu, who was standing next to him, finally couldn't hold back her laughter and told him that they were referring to the rolling ball beast on his head.
It turned out that just as Xiao Chenyu and the others were about to make a move that day, Agumon launched a fireball at them. Fortunately, the group had their soul power protecting them, so it only resulted in seven or eight more people running around naked at Notting Academy. From that day on, the students in the academy treated Agumon as their boss.
That night, the academy's library was unusually lively. Xiao Yan kept saying "excuse me" and finally managed to squeeze his way to the gatekeeper.
Since Master Yanxiao sparked an academic craze in Notting City, many Soul Masters who felt hopeless about cultivation have flocked to the library.
Upon seeing the visitor, Old Man Li naturally snorted in annoyance. Xiao Yan smiled apologetically, took out a wine pot from his storage space, and stuffed it into the old man's hand from under the table.
"Why is it this quality? This is supposed to be Imperial Jade Liquor, but it's only 2 silver soul coins. I'm not drinking it." The old man secretly glanced under the table.
"I went too late today, and they were out of Imperial Jade Liquor. Besides, do you really need to drink wine that costs 1 gold soul coin every day?" Although Xiao Yan was very rich now, he still felt a little pained by the price of wine that cost 1 gold soul coin per bottle.
"Hmph, if it weren't for you, would my little library be packed with people? The fact that I dared to ask you for Jade Liquor means I have good news about you."
As the old man spoke, he took out a letter and a ring from his pocket.
"This is the research funding the Heaven Dou royal family gave you. I haven't counted it for you, but the receipt says 300 gold soul coins. You're quite valued by them, kid."
"That's all thanks to Grandpa Li for concealing my identity. Xue'er is really kind of you; you really have connections."
Xiao Yan opened the letter in front of the old man, his smile growing even wider.
"You little rascal, anyone who didn't know better would think you were reading some kind of pornographic book."
"No, no, I read the Spring and Autumn Annals."
Upon reading the contents of the letter, Xiao Yan was both pleased and somewhat nervous, as the letter stated that he would soon arrive at Notting City and hoped to meet with the other party.
