"What does face matter? What does the bond between master and disciple matter? In the face of a blood feud, everything can be abandoned!"
However, when his gaze fell upon Yu Xiaogang's face beside him, which was so gloomy it looked like it was about to drip water.
Tang San's heart softened involuntarily.
Regardless of the circumstances, Yu Xiaogang was his teacher.
He was the one who guided him and gave him fatherly care when he was at his weakest and most confused.
Although he now has a slight doubt about the teacher's "greatness".
But so many years of feelings can't be severed so easily.
If today, in front of everyone, he also sided with Su Xin.
What a heavy blow that would be to the teacher.
That's tantamount to stabbing the teacher in an already bleeding wound!
"I can't do this..."
Tang San's fists were clenched tightly inside his sleeves.
"Revenge is important, but I cannot become an ungrateful wretch because of it!"
"Besides... even if I choose a teacher, it doesn't mean I won't have the opportunity to learn something from Su Xin."
"Since we'll all be in the same college from now on, we'll see each other all the time. I can totally observe him secretly and imitate him!"
"Yes! That's what we'll do! We'll learn by observation! With my talent and intelligence, as long as I observe enough, I'm sure I can steal all his skills!"
Tang San quickly found a solution that would satisfy both sides.
This way, he could maintain his relationship with his teacher without jeopardizing his plan to secretly learn from her.
Having figured this out, Tang San no longer hesitated.
He took a deep breath and, once again respectfully, performed a disciple's salute to Yu Xiaogang.
"Teacher, you will always be my teacher."
"No matter how others see you, in my heart, Tang San, you are the most respectable person."
"I choose you."
His voice was not loud, but it was exceptionally firm.
Every word was like warm sunshine, shining into Yu Xiaogang's cold and broken heart.
Yu Xiaogang shuddered, staring at Tang San in disbelief.
He thought that even Tang San was going to abandon him.
But unexpectedly, at this most miserable and desperate moment for him...
This disciple, whom he had raised from scratch, was still willing to stand firmly by his side!
"Good...good boy!"
Yu Xiaogang's eyes instantly reddened.
He patted Tang San's shoulder excitedly, his lips trembling, unable to utter a single word.
A scholar dies for a confidant!
With such a disciple, what more could one ask for!
Xiaowu, standing next to her, didn't even need to choose.
When she saw Tang San stand next to Yu Xiaogang, she immediately skipped over and took Tang San's arm.
"Wherever Third Brother is, I will be there!"
With this, the team selection process is completely over.
The final result is:
Su Xin's camp consists of Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, Zhu Zhuyun, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Auska, a total of six people.
In Yu Xiaogang's camp, there were only Tang San and Xiao Wu.
Although Tang San's loyalty allowed Yu Xiaogang to save face somewhat.
But looking at the massive team opposite them, which included almost all the geniuses, Yu Xiaogang still felt a tightness in her chest.
He originally intended to take this opportunity to make a name for himself at Slade College.
Take in more talented disciples so they can assist Tang San in achieving great things.
But now it's better.
In the end, only Tang San and Xiao Wu remained as his "old subordinates".
How is this different from when he was at Notting College?
Moreover, in front of everyone, he was humiliated beyond repair by that kid surnamed Su and that impolite girl!
Yu Xiaogang grew angrier and angrier the more she thought about it, and the more frustrated she felt.
He felt that he had never been so humiliated in his entire life!
Yu Xiaogang looked at Su Xin's group of students who were whispering and looking smug, and felt a surge of anger.
A bunch of blind fools!
You've chosen him today, but one day you'll regret it!
Don't come crying back to me then!
Yu Xiaogang was so angry that he didn't want to stay there for another second. He flicked his sleeve and prepared to leave with Tang San and Xiao Wu.
Let's find a place to calm down first, and then make a more careful plan.
But just as he turned around...
The voice he hated to the core rang out once again, unhurriedly.
"Master, wait a moment."
Su Xin spoke.
Yu Xiaogang paused, suppressing her anger, and turned back to ask, "Is there anything else?"
His tone was so cold it was as if ice shards were about to fall from his lips.
However, Su Xin didn't even look at him.
His gaze fell on the three boys behind him who had just "surrendered".
When Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Auska were looked at like that, their hearts skipped a beat, and an ominous premonition arose in their hearts.
Su Xin looked at them and slowly began to speak.
His voice was no longer the gentle one he used when speaking to Ning Rongrong, nor the mocking one he used when speaking to Yu Xiaogang.
Rather, it is a cold indifference devoid of any emotion.
"I think I just said that."
"If you want me to personally teach you, first of all, you have to be someone I approve of."
"You three..."
Su Xin's gaze swept back and forth over them, as if he were looking at three worthless pieces of trash.
"Last night, I gained a preliminary understanding of you."
He paused, then pointed his finger at Dai Mubai.
"You, Dai Mubai."
"As a prince of the Star Luo Empire, possessing the Evil Eye White Tiger Martial Soul, he should have been a chosen one of heaven, a dragon among men."
"But what about you?"
"Faced with pressure from their family, they lack ambition and don't think about how to become stronger and reclaim everything that belongs to them."
Instead, he gave up on himself and ran to this poor and remote place, indulging in wine and women all day long, using himself to numb himself and escape reality.
"To put it bluntly, you're just a coward who doesn't even have the courage to face the future."
Dai Mubai's face turned deathly pale in an instant!
Every word Su Xin said was like a sharp knife, piercing his heart!
It ripped his pathetic self-esteem and the shell he had always used to disguise himself to shreds!
Su Xin ignored him and turned his finger to Ma Hongjun next to him.
"And you, Ma Hongjun."
"Your martial soul is a mutated top-tier beast martial soul, the Evil Phoenix. In terms of quality, it is even comparable to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex."
"But what did you do?"
"He takes advantage of his talent and does nothing but work hard all day long. All he thinks about is women."
"Because of the flaw in his martial soul, he indulged his desires and treated brothels as his home."
"At such a young age, he has become a shameless john, utterly disgracing a top-tier beast spirit!"
Ma Hongjun's chubby face instantly turned a deep liver color. He lowered his head, wishing he could disappear into a crack in the ground.
Finally, Su Xin's gaze fell on Auska.
Auska's heart was in her throat.
He asked himself whether he was neither as escapist as Dai Mubai nor as lecherous as Ma Hongjun.
Surely there's nothing left to criticize, right?
However, Su Xin's next words dealt him a devastating blow.
Su Xin looked him up and down, then frowned and said in an extremely disdainful tone:
"As for you, Oska..."
"You're just plain ugly."
