Chapter 47: The Furious Gu Rong

Shrek Academy

After bringing them back, Gu Yi went to the back mountain. This place had become his place of enlightenment. Whenever he had new thoughts, he would come here to immerse himself in contemplation.

Tang San also went to find his teacher, Yu Xiaogang. He didn't know much about what Gu Yi had said. Moreover, even though the external spirit bone was so precious, he didn't want to hide it from Yu Xiaogang.

But as soon as he reached Yu Xiaogang's door, he smelled a stench. During the six years at the Nuoding Academy, Yu Xiaogang didn't fight much, only using spirit skills when helping him hunt for spirit rings. And this stench was similar to the smell Luo San Pao emitted.

Tang San endured the physical nausea and knocked on Yu Xiaogang's door.

The door opened, and an even stronger stench wafted out. Even though he had lived two lives, this level of stench made him involuntarily step back several paces.

With a mixture of shock and subtle disgust, Tang San looked at the figure coming out.

This person didn't look like Yu Xiaogang at all. His beard hadn't been trimmed for several days, his hair was messy, and his clothes were dirty and unkempt, completely devoid of the scholarly aura he used to have.

"Little San, you're back. Did you find the spirit beast according to my request?" Although Yu Xiaogang hadn't gone personally, he had already planned out the growth path for him.

"This time I absorbed the Man Face Demon Spider, and the effect was very good." Tang San didn't dwell on this matter and instead asked with concern, "Teacher, what's going on with you?" The current Yu Xiaogang made him feel unfamiliar. In the six years at Nuoding Academy, he had never seen Yu Xiaogang like this.

"Teacher is fine. Let me see the spirit skill you've acquired." Yu Xiaogang didn't want to talk much and turned to ask Tang San. After learning everything, Yu Xiaogang first scolded Tang San fiercely, then couldn't help but marvel at Tang San's luck.

Gu Yi stood in the forest, not using spirit power. However, at his current level, even full-body introspection wasn't a difficult task.

On this open ground, Gu Yi slowly performed a set of boxing techniques without using any extraordinary power, just like an ordinary person, punching and kicking. However, his movements were much smoother than that of an ordinary person's.

Gu Yi could feel the muscles reacting with each movement. But compared to that, the power in other parts of his body remained unused.

After finishing a set of aimless boxing, Gu Yi stood in place, contemplating the situation just now. Not long after, Gu Yi stood in place and threw a punch out of thin air. His feet didn't move, his torso didn't move, and even his head didn't move.

The only change was his right fist.

After throwing this punch, Gu Yi frowned, obviously unsatisfied. After retracting his fist, Gu Yi threw another punch. The effect was still unsatisfactory.

Gu Yi spent the whole day practicing boxing. But there wasn't much gain.

In the evening, even when eating, Gu Yi was still deep in thought, like a machine. A bite of rice, a bite of vegetables.

Zhu Zhuqing originally wanted to ask Gu Yi some questions about techniques, but seeing him like this, she didn't dare to disturb him.

Yu Xiaogang didn't come to dinner either, maybe he thought of another way to torment himself.

After dinner, Gu Yi headed back to the back mountain. Zhu Zhuqing hesitated for a moment and followed.

Since Zhu Zhuqing and the others arrived at the academy, Dai Mubai hadn't gone out to flirt with girls anymore. Seeing Zhu Zhuqing's actions made him explode with anger. As the fiancée of the Star Luo Royal Family, she dared to get so close to another man. His temperament had improved somewhat over the years, but he hadn't lost the dignity and majesty of being a prince.

His fists clenched under the table.

Suddenly, Dai Mubai thought of that terrifying sword and blade, but his clenched hands loosened helplessly. If Gu Yi really had feelings for Zhu Zhuqing, what ability did he have to take her back?

Even if he had the support of the Star Luo Royal Family behind him. But he didn't think that the Star Luo Royal Family would offend someone with the strength of a Titled Douluo for the fiancée of a prince who had almost no chance of ascending the throne. Dai Mubai understood this very well. In the competition of the Star Luo Royal Family, it was survival of the fittest, and they cared little for familial bonds.

Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Clan

"Uncle Sword, are you serious?" Ning Fengzhi looked incredulously at Chen Xin. This news was definitely shocking to him. From ancient times to the present, he had never heard of anyone being able to fight against a Titled Douluo while in the Spirit King realm.

"Chen Xin, have you been training your sword techniques to the point where you've become senile?" Gu Rong couldn't believe it. If someone could really rival a Titled Douluo in the Spirit King realm, then the world would be turned upside down.

"If you had seen that one strike, there might have been danger even for you with a frontal attack." Chen Xin was now terrified at the thought of that strike. Fortunately, his Seven Kill Sword had undergone transformation, otherwise it might have crushed him.

Although Gu Rong usually liked to banter with Chen Xin, there was no doubt that Chen Xin's strength was slightly stronger than his. The gap in spirit power put them in two different worlds.

But if they were to fight, Chen Xin wouldn't be able to do anything to him. After all, his martial spirit not only had astonishing defensive power but also possessed the miraculous ability of spatial teleportation.

"Chen Xin, are you really telling the truth?" Gu Rong knew that Chen Xin wasn't someone who liked to joke around, especially since this matter was really hard to imagine. The myth of the strongest persons being Titled Douluos among spirit masters being shattered.

"If what Uncle Sword said is true, then that young man must have had an unprecedented opportunity." Although Ning Fengzhi's spirit power was only at level 79, his intelligence was enough to command the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Clan. And with his assistance, the cooperation between Sword Douluo Chen Xin and the Bone Douluo Gu Rong was invincible in the world.

This was how the Martial Spirit Hall evaluated them.

"There's no need to worry about that. Although Rongrong suffered a lot this time, she seems to have integrated more into Shrek. It was also Rongrong who actively pleaded, coupled with the fact that the young man indeed has some ability, otherwise the Seven Kill Sword wouldn't have been so easily retracted." Ning Fengzhi noticed one thing. Rongrong actively pleaded.

"It seems that letting Rongrong leave the sect back then was the right decision." Gu Rong felt a little annoyed. "Fengzhi, it seems like Old Sword has been training his sword confusedly these years. If it were me, I would have never let Rongrong become a beggar. I would have directly destroyed that damn Shrek Academy and brought that kid back to make amends. Even if that kid is strong, with your assistance, how many people in the world can be our opponents?" Gu Rong didn't care about so much. Daring to bully his beloved Rongrong was simply unbearable.

Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Clan was one of the top three sects, how could a large power be all bright and shiny? At the very least, it was built from fighting through blood and rain. Even if they had no reputation, what was the problem with wiping out a school without a strong backing?

Moreover, there was now a reason, making it even easier to destroy Shrek Academy. The heir was humiliated, which was a huge crime.
