Chapter 45 So You're Yan Xiao
This was a trap set by Xiao Yan for Yu Xiaogang, which is paradoxical in itself. He did not directly point out that Gangzi's theory was problematic.
On the contrary, he was helping to prove, using Tang San's success as an example, that there are no useless martial souls in the world.
If Yu Xiaogang believes that there are no useless martial souls in the world, then there is no longer any controversy about him being a useless person.
If he thinks his Luo Sanpao is a useless martial spirit, then he has broken his own logic.
Faced with the choice between theoretical failure and his own incompetence, Yu Xiaogang had to choose.
"I didn't expect you to be here today, Master. I heard you've been staying in Nottingham for quite some time, and I was thinking of inviting you to join me today, but I haven't received a reply." The purple-robed bishop stroked his white beard, looking at Yu Xiaogang, who was now exposed to everyone's view, with a playful look in his eyes.
More and more eyes and criticisms surrounded Yu Xiaogang. Under the invisible pressure, his right hand faintly flashed with soul power, and Luo Sanpao was summoned.
The moment the dog and pig appeared, they knocked over a row of seats. Fortunately, the people around were just watching the master and didn't sit down.
"Protect the bishop!" The soldiers of the Spirit Hall immediately went on alert, holding their weapons and protecting the bishop. The purple-robed bishop smiled and indicated that there was no need to be nervous.
Yes, anyone in the know would be afraid of a master's martial spirit.
"There are no useless Soul Masters in this world, only Soul Masters who don't work hard enough." Seeing that Yu Xiaogang was silent, Xiao Yan answered for him.
Gangzi was clearly not listening to any of this, and was even a little crazy. He walked towards the stage with a smile, and the crowd made way for him without his knowledge, obviously wary of the master.
Luo Sanpao followed behind him, puzzled. As two yellow hundred-year soul rings attached themselves, he released two soul skills, one that sounded like thunder and the other like smoke, towards the podium.
Xiao Yan smiled and pressed down on the Zhuge Crossbow behind Tang Sanzang, indicating that he could handle it himself. Today was a good day, and there was no need for bloodshed.
A purple thousand-year soul ring lit up on his body. In the next instant, Xiao Yan and Yu Xiaogang's figures appeared somewhat illusory, like a string of data. Then, their positions were switched.
"What! It's purple again." The purple-robed bishop, who had clearly prepared a countermeasure, pinched his nose and looked at the curtain with even more fervent eyes.
After switching positions, the person who was originally in the eye of the storm changed from Yu Xiaogang to Xiao Yan. Seeing that his fart was about to be released towards his master, Luo Sanpao anxiously used all his strength to change the direction of his attack, and fired two soul skills into the sky. Then he collapsed to the ground feeling very uncomfortable.
"Little Brother Xiao Yan has a second martial soul? He can even teleport!" Yong Ge exclaimed in surprise.
Xue'er rolled her eyes, wondering why Master Yanxiao would let such a person sit in the VIP section.
"Hahaha, of course it's not simple teleportation. This is clearly the ability granted by that child's second soul skill," the purple-robed bishop explained, after all, he had just seen the purple soul ring flash on the other party.
This was Xiao Yan's second soul skill, which he obtained from a thousand-year-old Flashwing Bird. He called it Digital Migration. Because his first soul skill had growth potential and was powerful enough, he wanted to increase his flexibility in combat. That's why he specifically asked Team Leader Wang in the Soul Hunting Forest to keep an eye out for him.
The Flashwing Bird itself only possessed the ability to seemingly jump through space when moving at high speed, but when fused with Xiao Yan's martial soul, it actually became a kind of digital space displacement.
As the name suggests, he can use very little soul power to swap spaces with Agumon. He has also tried to teleport using his willpower, but it is not that simple. At present, he can only swap the positions of items within a two-meter radius of him.
If it is an inanimate object, the consumption is extremely low. However, if it is a weapon spirit with attached soul power or an existence with a higher soul power level, it will consume most of his soul power.
This is why he is now sitting on a stool panting after replacing Yu Xiaogang. After all, Gangzi is a level 29 Great Soul Master.
Yu Xiaogang looked at his hands in disbelief. The feeling just now was very subtle, as if he had completely disappeared from this world, and then a new version of him had been created out of thin air. A sense of unreality enveloped him.
After calming down, he frowned and looked at the people around him. In everyone's eyes, there was no fear of him, but pity. Even Tang San could not bring himself to kill him.
Luo Sanpao, lying on the ground, was humming and calling to Yu Xiaogang. Only then did Yu Xiaogang remember that his purpose in coming here was to prove how successful his academic work was and that his martial soul concept was unique. But now, he had lost, and lost completely in every aspect.
"Thank you, Master Yanxiao, for clearing up my doubts." He stood up dejectedly and pulled Luo Sanpao back into his body.
Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the backup plan he had asked Old Man Li to leave was unnecessary.
"But there is still one thing that I don't understand. Mr. Yanxiao is so knowledgeable, why is he unwilling to show his true face?" Yu Xiaogang naturally had his own thoughts. He now suspected that this so-called Yanxiao did not exist at all, but was just two little brats deliberately messing with him.
Although he couldn't understand why these two could absorb purple spirit rings with their second spirit ring, he wanted to reveal the true form of the non-existent Yan Xiao and let everyone see how ridiculous they were being amused.
The next second, to everyone's surprise, Yu Xiaogang ran like a madman behind the curtain and yanked it open.
It wasn't that no one noticed his unusual behavior; at least Tang San, Xiao Yan, and the others in the VIP seats all saw through his intentions. But everyone had their own ulterior motives.
Of the VIPs, apart from Brother Yong who was genuinely worried, everyone else was eager to see Yan Xiao in person.
Apart from Xue'er being a little nervous, worried that she might offend Master Yanxiao, the others even wanted to help Yu Xiaogang.
As for Xiao Yan, he was nothing more than a cobbled-together anthology of martial soul theories, and it was better to reveal the so-called truth sooner rather than later. If he were to continue teaching and imparting knowledge for too long, he would go mad.
As for Tang San, he listens to his elder brother.
Yu Xiaogang ripped the curtain off, and a puff of smoke rushed towards his face.
Old Master Li was sitting inside, leisurely puffing on a cigarette.
"How come it's you, old man Li?" Yu Xiaogang looked at the old man he looked down on with a shocked expression.
The people below the stage did not recognize this old man Li, but the people from Notting College were surprised. They did not expect that Master Yanxiao was the doorman of Notting College's library.
Some young girls' dreams were shattered; they had imagined Master Yanxiao to be a handsome young scholar.
But most people accept it, since age is a fixed impression that knowledge should have a certain foundation.
"Lord Xiao, I told you long ago that this Mr. Li, oh no, Mr. Yanxiao, is no ordinary person."
The dean of Notting College acted as if he already knew, but he was just pretending. After all, Old Man Li was notorious for his drinking in the college. He couldn't even control himself and would drink until his face was red before lecturing. Who would have thought that he would have such insight into academic matters?
This was Xiao Yan's last resort. At first, Grandpa Li naturally refused, but under Xiao Yan's enticement of having an endless supply of wine, he accepted.
"Well, the so-called master is very simple. Just nod and say some mysterious things. Just don't lead people astray, and don't come up with anything new yourself. These points of mine are enough for you to benefit from," Xiao Yan said casually that day.
