Facing Tang Lan's disgust, Yu Xiaogang smiled with unusual composure.
"Sect Master, you're right; my life is full of failures."
"Before, I was too concerned with so-called worldly opinions and did many things like a hypocrite."
"From today on, I only want to be a true villain."
"The Tang Sect Encyclopedia is so comprehensive that it amazes me. Many things are still theoretical, and I want to try to prove them."
"It's unrelated to anything else; I just want to."
Huh?
Why did this guy suddenly see the light?
Tang Lan thought for a moment.
He tentatively asked, "The Tang Sect Academy will have Old Zhao as the principal. If you want to stay, you can only be an ordinary theory teacher and only teach the Tang Sect Encyclopedia."
Yu Xiaogang simply nodded.
"That suits me perfectly."
He could accept that?
"I also want to stay," Liu Erlong echoed, following her husband's lead. "I want to apply for the practical combat teacher position, to coordinate with Xiaogang's theory classes."
Yu Xiaogang squeezed Liu Erlong's hand tightly, giving her a grateful look.
Liu Erlong smiled sweetly, enjoying the gesture.
Wow!
Two people pushing forty, and they're still in puppy love?
Yu Xiaogang was irrelevant.
But Liu Erlong, as a Seventh Ring Soul Saint, was essential for the newly founded Tang Sect.
Moreover, with Liu Erlong there, taking over Blue Tyrant Academy would be much smoother.
As for what Yu Xiaogang was up to…
It didn't matter.
Free labor first.
Thinking of this.
Tang Lan nodded and said, "Okay."
Seeing Tang Lan agree, Yu Xiaogang smiled.
Finally, the true intentions were revealed.
"Sect Master, Liu Erlong, Flender, and I possess a Martial Soul Fusion Skill, the Golden Holy Dragon. We can easily handle even a Contradicting Soul."
"Flender's current Shrek Academy only has one student, Ma Hongjun. It's practically defunct."
"Therefore, I was wondering if he could send Ma Hongjun to study at the Tang Sect Academy as an exchange student?"
"In the future, if needed, we, the Golden Iron Triangle, will naturally serve the Sect Master."
Well, well!
So that's what this was about? They called it borrowing.
But wasn't it just "using the hen to lay eggs"? They wanted to use the Tang Sect Academy's resources to nurture Ma Hongjun.
The resources they occupied were secondary.
The main problem was that little fatty Ma Hongjun; he was quite annoying.
But the Golden Iron Triangle, as muscle, was still somewhat useful for now.
After some thought, Tang Lan compromised, saying, "I can speak to my elder brother and arrange for them to go to Heaven Dou Royal Academy, but not the Tang Sect Academy."
Yu Xiaogang sighed.
He could see the Tang Sect rising, with a promising future.
He still wanted to help his old friends. Unfortunately, the previous conflicts were too deep, and irreconcilable.
"Then I'll trouble Sect Master Tang," Liu Erlong said understandingly. "If you need us in the future, the Golden Iron Triangle is willing to serve Sect Master Tang."
Tang Lan nodded in satisfaction.
Just a deal, no need to pretend we're best buddies.
He immediately took out his communication soul tool and gave Ning Fengzhi a call.
He briefly explained the situation.
Ning Fengzhi agreed.
He invited again, "Brother Lan, are you free tomorrow? The Blue Silver Kings are very excited to know you're here."
"Alright, I'll go and take a look tomorrow."
"Then I'll be waiting for you at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect," Ning Fengzhi said with a hearty laugh.
After hanging up the phone.
Tang Lan handed the information Liu Erlong had given him, along with the documents Qian Renxue provided, back to Liu Erlong.
Then, he summoned Zhao Wuji, who had been watching the show.
"Old Zhao, you take care of changing the academy's name."
"Also, issue a public statement: Tang Sect is recruiting disciples from across the continent."
"The Imperial Guard will contact you later to assist with screening and maintaining order."
"Age-appropriate students can enroll in the Tang Sect Academy as long as they pay tuition and have no criminal record."
"Those with certain talents and no criminal record can be accepted as Tang Sect outer disciples."
"If they have innate soul power of level 7 or higher, or if they've had a stroke of luck, you can draw up a list. I'll assess them later, and they can become inner disciples of the Tang Sect."
Tang Lan gave his instructions.
He completely disregarded Liu Erlong, who wasn't even a member of the Tang Sect.
But she, Liu Erlong, isn't. Yu Xiaogang is!
Therefore, Liu Erlong was delighted that Tang Lan entrusted her with such an important task, as she felt it relieved some of the pressure on Yu Xiaogang.
As for Zhao Wuji... Although he found it a headache to manage the academy, what could he do? He could only grit his teeth and accept it.
Most of the troublesome matters were now delegated.
Tang Lan was a hands-off boss, enjoying the ease.
He was feeling pretty good.
Just then,
Dai Mubai and Oscar, arm in arm, walked in from the hotel entrance.
Seeing Tang Lan, they immediately stood up straight.
"Sect Master!"
"Greetings, Sect Master!"
Tang Lan nodded slightly.
He deployed his mental power – enhanced by the Evil Eye, he could now use his mental power simply, without relying on the Blue Silver Domain.
Using a mental link, he notified Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing to come down.
He took out the Ten Thousand Year Tiger-Eagle Left Arm Bone.
Without explaining its origins, he went straight to the point:
"Your performance during this field training was good."
"This is a ten-thousand-year soul bone—the Tiger-Eagle Left Arm Bone!"
"It's not suitable for auxiliary soul masters to absorb, so Rongrong and Oscar won't be competing for it."
"Zhuqing, Sanzi, Mubai, which of you wants to absorb it?"
Everyone's faces twitched!
He's giving out a soul bone as a reward?
Tang Lan is so overbearing!
But on second thought...
This Tiger-Eagle Left Arm Bone is suitable for agility-attack and power-attack types, so Oscar was out of the question.
That left Zhu Zhuqing, Tang San, and Dai Mubai.
Among them, one is Tang Lan's woman, and the other is Tang Lan's younger brother.
What chance did Dai Mubai have to compete?
So, in the end, it was still given to Tang Lan's own people, and he even gained a reputation for generosity.
This Tang Lan, he knows how to play the game!
As for Tang San, as a control-type, he wasn't suited for the soul bone's attributes. He's Tang Lan's younger brother, so his big brother could just give it to him outright.
Who would dare to object?
Tang San clearly felt the same way.
He stared intently at the Tiger-Eagle Left Arm Bone, brimming with confidence.
"Brother will definitely get it for him!"
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes sparkled, and she also had designs on it – the hot dogs weren't free! The cream wasn't for nothing!
The remaining Dai Mubai, although his eyes were also filled with desire.
But he still knew his own limitations.
He glanced at Tang San and Zhu Zhuqing, and after a little thought.
He actually said, "Sect Master, the Tiger-Eagle, as mentioned in the Tang Sect Encyclopedia, possesses the strength of a tiger and the speed of an eagle."
"So this Ten Thousand Year Tiger-Eagle Left Arm Bone is more suitable for the strong-attack type and the agile-attack type."
With these words,
He practically pointed it out for Zhu Zhuqing.
Causing Tang San to glare at him!
"You don't want it, don't trip me up either!"
"Brother!" Tang San retorted, "Teacher once said that if a soul bone isn't suitable, it can't be absorbed. I'll know if I try!"
Alright!
Try it? Can you just try it?
Tang Lan looked at Yu Xiaogang, wanting to see what he would say.
Yu Xiaogang pondered for a moment.
He had seen Tang Lan staying in Zhu Zhuqing's room earlier, not coming out for a whole afternoon.
Was it cultivation or dual cultivation? Who knew? But it was certain that their relationship was not ordinary.
As for Tang San, he was nothing more than a disobedient disciple who dared to defy his master's orders.
He had made up his mind.
Then, a voice announced:
