Chapter 124 Self-Doubt
"I never expected that Brother Lu would have such a magnanimous attitude of regarding all the heroes of the world as straw dogs. I admire him to the point of prostration."
As soon as Xue Qinghe left the Education Committee, he couldn't help but make a joke.
Lu Mingfei couldn't hold back any longer. Although being a chuunibyou (a person with delusions of grandeur) is fun, being pointed out to his face left him feeling extremely embarrassed.
This feeling is probably just as embarrassing as being recognized by a classmate while cosplaying as a magical girl.
Read as "capacity" and write as "narrow-mindedness".
Even if he wanted something this high-end, he wouldn't have the quality to possess it.
"Ahem, well, the weather is really nice today." Lu Mingfei scratched his head guiltily, changing the subject. If they continued talking, he would have to bury himself in the ground.
Xue Qinghe chuckled twice more, surprised that Lu Mingfei, who had been so spirited just moments before, was also shy.
However, fearing that Lu Mingfei might flee in panic, he didn't intend to joke around anymore and instead planned to talk about serious matters.
"Brother Lu seems quite different today than usual," Xue Qinghe said, abandoning his teasing tone.
He was very curious as to why Lu Mingfei had acted so unusually today, launching a heavy attack on Tang Hao's child. However, Tang San and Master were indeed disgusting people.
Especially when the master coughed up blood at the end, he almost wanted to applaud and cheer!
"Isn't Brother Xue even more different today?" Lu Mingfei shrugged and didn't say anything more. Tang Hao was nearby, and it would be too stupid to gossip about him in front of him.
He didn't really want to do this, but the cockroach had already gotten to the bottom of his shoe, so it would be too impolite not to step on it.
Xue Qinghe nodded in agreement, a knowing smile on his face. Originally, he had only intended to use the excuse that Shrek Academy and the others were no match for Lu Mingfei and had no face to ask for team leadership as a way to suppress Shrek Academy.
Unexpectedly, Lu Mingfei's assist was so good that he completely crushed Shrek Academy. Although it was slightly different from his initial plan, the effect might have been even better.
Meanwhile, after receiving treatment at the Royal Academy's medical clinic, Shrek and his companions hurriedly set off and left.
Zhu Zhuqing's injuries were external and easy to treat. After a series of treatments by several support Soul Masters, she has almost fully recovered.
However, both Tang San and Grandmaster's faces remained deathly pale.
The injury to the external soul bone is not a simple external injury; as for the master, it is a pent-up emotional distress with nowhere to be healed.
Unlike his triumphant arrival, Shrek left completely dejected and disheveled.
The group looked at each other, speechless. Whether it was the master's words about splitting up the team or their inability to even handle Lu Mingfei's single soul skill, they were all more dejected than eggplants that had been hit by frost.
Perhaps only Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing felt a little regretful, but they had already boarded this pirate ship and had no other choice before the Soul Master Competition ended.
They had barely stepped out of the school gate when Tang San couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, what exactly happened after we left? Did the Royal Academy do something to you? I'm going to settle the score with them!"
The master held an irreplaceable position in his heart, but who could have imagined that in the blink of an eye, the master would vomit blood and faint?
He vowed in his heart that if the Royal Academy dared to harm the master, he would risk everything, even death.
"No, Xiao San, it has nothing to do with them." Grandmaster shook his head with a bitter smile. Tang San's concern warmed his heart, but when he thought of Lu Mingfei's words just now, it made him even more heartbroken than when he was abandoned by Bibi Dong and kicked out of Wuhun City.
Tang San's recent performance has completely validated Lu Mingfei's words: he is too childish, and he will be discouraged every time he suffers a setback.
He may have truly instilled the wrong ideas in Tang San from the very beginning. The twin martial souls, coupled with the protection of a Title Douluo, unknowingly fostered Tang San's arrogant and ignorant personality.
With so many obstacles ahead, can they really persuade Tang San to come back every time?
Seeing that the master said this, Tang San could only give up. He had actually figured it out. It was because their performance was too poor that the master was so disheartened. He had already secretly made a fuss about Jiaxueyuan and Lu Mingfei.
"Flander, where should we go next? Back to Soto City?" Zhao Wuji asked. He had no objection to leaving the Royal Academy, but they needed to have a destination next.
"Let's settle down in Tiandou City first, and we can discuss it again tonight." Flander waved his hand, and the teachers understood that he wanted to discuss it with Haotian Douluo.
After all, coming to the Royal Academy was originally Haotian Douluo's plan, and this mess is a slap in the face to Haotian Douluo.
"Xiao Gang, what do you think?"
The master sighed and could only nod. Today's events were strange in every way. Lu Mingfei's incident could be considered an accident, but the attitude of the Heaven Dou royal family was too abnormal. Even the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had problems. It was necessary to have Haotian Douluo take a look.
The group hadn't walked far before they arrived at the entrance of Tiandou City. Flander glanced at a certain GG on the huge bulletin board and immediately smiled.
Fortunately, he had already made a backup plan. He had previously envisioned that after Tang San and the others graduated and left Tian Dou City, if they couldn't stay at the Royal Academy, he would have to give these old friends a final way out.
Now is the time to put them to good use.
So that very day, Shrek Academy moved into Blue Tyrant Academy, or rather, the new Shrek Academy.
That night, Grandmaster, Tang San, and Tang Hao gathered together in the small courtyard room where Grandmaster was.
What happened today far exceeded their plans; even just being able to enter Blue Tyrant Academy was an unexpected bonus.
"Dad, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy went too far today. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Heaven Dou Royal Family are clearly playing us for fools." Tang San slammed his fist on the table and said indignantly.
"Enough, mistress. What did I tell you? Don't act impulsively. I will get an explanation for what happened today, but you should also reflect on your behavior." Tang Hao coldly rebuked, "To hurt yourself because of a fight over emotions is undoubtedly the most foolish thing to do."
"Go back to your room immediately to rest and cultivate diligently. What happens next is none of your business."
This was the first time Tang San had seen Tang Hao with such a serious expression. He felt a chill run down his spine, knowing that he had disappointed Tang Hao greatly today. He dared not make any more excuses and immediately got up and returned to his room.
Tang Hao only sighed softly after Tang San's footsteps disappeared.
"Haotian Douluo, Xiao San is just speaking up for Shrek Academy," the Grandmaster said, offering a word of comfort.
"Master, you should still remember what Lu Mingfei said," Tang Hao said.
The master was silent for a moment: "I remember."
Tang Hao's weathered face showed bitterness as he continued, "He's right. The mistress was blinded by revenge and powerful forces long ago."
"Last time, because of Lu Mingfei's provocation, he chose to absorb the human-faced demon spider's soul ring beyond his limits. Although he benefited from the misfortune, he can't be so lucky forever."
"It's not too late," the master said in a deep voice. "Xiao San is still young. He has always been sensible and knows how to correct his mistakes. As long as he gains more experience in the future, he will be able to correct them."
Tang Hao gazed at the moon outside the window and fell silent. It was precisely because Tang San was sensible and precocious that he was worried that Tang San's personality was already fixed and difficult to change.
Moreover, there was something he kept to himself that he never said aloud.
Today, he seemed to see the shadow of his grandfather, Tang Chen, in Lu Mingfei.
The magnanimity that arises from the power to dominate the continent.
Even if Xiao San has twin martial souls, can she really defeat Lu Mingfei in the future?
