Chapter 18: Don't you have any dignity?
"No way, are you sick in the head?" Xu Sanshi's anger was instantly ignited. After placing the expensive food on the table, he slammed his hand on it, making a loud noise.
"You're the one who's sick, your whole family is sick. You're not qualified to insult someone with a single gold soul coin." Wang Dong was furious. He raised his hand and threw dozens of gold soul coins at Xu Sanshi. However, Xu Sanshi was prepared, and the gold coins were all blocked by a layer of water, scattering all over the ground.
"Fine, you're right, I'm scared of you, okay?" Seeing Jiang Nannan's increasingly disappointed expression, Xu Sanshi lost all interest in arguing with Wang Dong and just wanted to catch up and explain as soon as possible.
"You can't leave. You have to give me an explanation." At this moment, Wang Dong stood in front of Xu Sanshi with his head held high, like a victorious little rooster.
"Explanation?" Huo Yuhao was truly speechless at this moment. He remembered that Wang Dong was not this kind of person. How come his current style of doing things is becoming more and more like his father's, unforgiving when he is in the right and stubborn even when he is not?
Huo Yuhao's expression also displeased Wang Dong. He turned to Huo Yuhao and said disdainfully, "Don't you have any dignity as a Soul Master? A true man lives between heaven and earth; how can he live a life of subservience to others? Are you even a man?"
"No, I just finished eating and was about to leave when someone even gave me some money. Why wouldn't I leave? Am I supposed to sit here all day and go against everyone?" Huo Yuhao was puzzled. Suddenly, he remembered Shrek Academy's motto—"A Soul Master who doesn't dare to cause trouble is not a good Soul Master." He understood a lot and said calmly, "My dignity isn't above this seat either."
"There are no useless martial souls, only useless soul masters. How can you debase yourself like this? Is your dignity less than a gold soul coin?" Wang Dong was truly helpless at this moment. Following the guidance in his mind, he came to the cafeteria and witnessed this scene. He wanted to stand up for him, but that Huo Yuhao was completely unappreciative.
Wang Dong, his anger boiling over on the ice, pointed at Huo Yuhao and said, "If you have any guts and are still a man, come with me to the Soul Arena and defeat him."
"I don't have the guts, I won't go, and I advise you not to go either." Huo Yuhao waved his hand, the gold soul coin in his hand swaying. He turned to Xu Sanshi and said, "Is this gold soul coin cursed? It's causing trouble if it falls into my hands."
"Who knows?" Xu Sanshi, who had been stopped, felt as if he had been cursed. Jiang Nannan had left his sight, and he no longer had the will to argue. He just wanted to eat quickly and finish his day's lessons.
Xu Sanshi sat down, and Huo Yuhao was about to leave, leaving Wang Dong standing there, enduring the bewildered gazes of the crowd. Unable to vent her anger, she blamed herself for meddling, finding the persistent thought in her mind incredibly annoying. But she was already in this predicament and had no choice but to react.
"You bought this seat for one gold soul coin, while I just spent nearly a hundred gold soul coins. This seat should be mine." Wang Dong slammed his hand on the table again, glaring at Xu Sanshi.
This action also piqued Huo Yuhao's interest. He leaned slightly against the table and chair next to him, watching the farce unfold with amusement.
"I won't sell. If you want me to change my seat, you have to pay one million." Xu Sanshi also has a temper. He was provoked by a first-year student time and time again, but he was able to suppress his temper, purely because the school rule that fighting is not allowed in the cafeteria protected him.
"One million? Why don't you just rob someone? Are you even worth a million?" Wang Dong chuckled, saying nonchalantly, "You're just a disciple of the Xuanming Tortoise Shell Sect. You're not qualified to act like a big shot in front of me."
"What a joke! I'm a human being. What are you trying to do by measuring me with money?" Xu Sanshi laughed in anger. The person in front of him actually knew that he came from the Xuanming Tortoise Shell Sect, yet he was still so arrogant. He really didn't know what he was so proud of.
"Because in my eyes, you're nothing but an object." Wang Dong curled his lips in mockery and said calmly, "Ten thousand years ago, your sect wasn't even worthy of carrying my shoes, and of course, it still isn't worthy now."
"Hmm?" Xu Sanshi frowned, feeling quite displeased.
Wang Dong's words also made many students who were eating think. The Xuanming Tortoise Shell Sect is a sect with a history of ten thousand years and a profound foundation. It belongs to the first-class power on the continent. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect is weak and hidden on the continent. Above it, the Body Sect and the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect are two forces that are openly visible. As for the other sect, it is the Haotian Sect, which has always been in seclusion.
"Wang Dongting is so arrogant, how dare he say such a thing?" Wu Feng was also eating here. Hearing the young lady's words, she was filled with doubt. Ning Tian, the true young master of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, was right next to her, but even she wouldn't dare to say such a thing.
As fellow first-graders, they felt a deep sense of regret that Class 1, Grade 1, was taught by Grandma Zhou Yi. Yesterday's 100 laps had instilled a sense of dread in them. Among them, Wang Dong was the first to finish the course and had become quite well-known in Class 1.
He and Huo Yuhao became the talk of the town. One was a man of his own, and the other was also quite capable, considering he had skipped Zhou Yi's class but was still able to eat in the cafeteria today, which spoke volumes.
"I know him. He has the beautiful Goddess of Light Butterfly Martial Soul. He had a second-ring cultivation level as soon as he entered school. He is very talented." A second-year student noticed the blue figure through the window. Those who had inquired about him were also watching the excitement and unintentionally revealed some information.
"Yes, and his second spirit ring is a thousand-year spirit ring, he's a monster."
"The Goddess of Light Butterfly? A second soul ring after a thousand years?" Xu Sanshi frowned, observing the expressions of the students around him. As the young master of the Xuanming Tortoise Shell Sect, he also had teachers from their faction within Shrek Academy who would gather information for them. Their large families also had internal connections, preventing conflicts between their disciples, and Xu Sanshi had some understanding of the backgrounds of some of the students.
"Dai Huabin's expression was calm, while Ning Tian showed an unfamiliar look. It seems she's not from the White Tiger Clan or the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan must be surnamed Yu or Mu. Bei Bei didn't mention having any brothers. The Haotian Clan is surnamed Tang, so which sect is she from?" Xu Sanshi analyzed in his mind, but he had no clue.
"My sect wasn't even worthy to carry your shoes ten thousand years ago, and you're from the Spirit Hall?" Xu Sanshi said casually, his words carrying a hint of probing.
"I despise associating with evil forces that were wiped out ten thousand years ago." Wang Dong said calmly with a cold smile, "I am the young master of the Haotian Sect! I wonder if this identity will make you get out of my way."
"Haotian Sect!" a student exclaimed. News about the number one sect on the continent has always been scarce. How could someone claim to be the young master of Haotian Sect today?
"Did I hear that right? He said he's from the Haotian Sect?" Wu Feng's mouth dropped open as he looked at Ning Tian beside him.
"Ten thousand years ago, the Xuanming Tortoise Shell Sect had not yet taken shape, while the Haotian Sect produced a god. They were indeed unworthy to carry the shoes of their young master." Ning Tian closed his eyes and said softly.
Tang San, the Sea God, possesses twin martial souls. His second martial soul is the Clear Sky Hammer, the number one weapon martial soul on the continent, and he is also the strongest god cultivated by Shrek Academy. However, the Clear Sky Sect has always remained hidden from the world, and the divine potential of the Clear Sky Hammer has rarely been seen. Even during the Battle of Ming four thousand years ago, this sect did not show its face.
"He possesses the Martial Soul of the Goddess of Light Butterfly, and he also claims to be the young master of the Clear Sky Sect. A young master of a sect wouldn't lack the sect's inherited Martial Soul, so if that's the case, then he is!" Wu Feng came from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and he knew some of the sect's rules. Following this line of reasoning, he could deduce many things.
Those present, if not the most astute, were either heirs of their families or individuals with considerable talent. Following Wu Feng's words, they could easily deduce Wang Dong's actual situation.
"That's right, he is very likely to have twin martial souls." Ning Tian raised his eyes, looking at Xu Sanshi sitting there with some heartache, and said calmly, "The Haotian Sect has produced another person with twin martial souls, but this time, I don't know if they can produce another god. If they run into him, even the Xuanming Tortoise Shell Sect can only accept their bad luck."
"Hmph! o(´^｀)o" Wang Dong snorted coldly, glanced at everyone, and thought to himself that since things had come to this point, he might as well let these mortals open their eyes, and it would also be a good opportunity to show Shrek Academy his aptitude and exchange it for some resources.
With his left hand behind his back and his right hand outstretched, a faint aura of soul power swirled around him, and a dark aura condensed, forming a martial soul imprint. Within the circular pattern, a hammer mark was imprinted, and the majesty of the continent's number one weapon martial soul was displayed before everyone.
Hissing and gasping sounds filled the air. Deducing it was one thing, but actually seeing it was another. When the fact of twin martial souls was laid bare before them, all they could do was gasp in amazement. Of course, amidst their astonishment, a comparison also formed in their minds.
In Class 1 of Grade 1, there isn't just one student with twin martial souls; there's another student with the same.
