Chapter 30: Famous Scene: The Way of Seeking Death of the Tang God King
Flender's words carried a hint of hoarseness.
Hearing Flender put it this way, Liu Erlong, who was usually intolerant of evil and had an incredibly fiery temper,
was, for the first time ever, silent on the spot.
Although she had already become a figurehead and Lanba Academy had been renamed Shrek Academy, with the position of dean handed over to Flender,
she still had a clear grasp of the academy's normal operations and what needed to be done at any given time.
Within the Shrek Academy Team,
Tang San appeared to be only a vice-captain.
However, it was precisely this vice-captain who was the core of the entire team, and could be called the team's brain.
Unlike the preliminary rounds held in Tiandou City,
during the preliminary rounds, Shrek Academy did not even need to expose all of its true core members.
The finals were different; whether the core members were absent or not determined how far they could go in the finals.
And Tang San's absence was definitely the one with the greatest impact among the Shrek Seven Devils.
"How about we return this Hidden Weapon to Xiao San's side?"
Liu Erlong pondered for a long time and said, "If we do this, perhaps when Xiao San wakes up tomorrow, he won't notice that someone sneaked into his room?"
Once these words were spoken, Flender immediately shook his head.
Having spent much more time with Tang San than Liu Erlong, Flender knew very well what kind of person Tang San was.
"Sister Er Long, Xiao San is a very vigilant person."
"Tonight, it was a Title Douluo who snuck in; if it had been anyone else, they would definitely have woken him up."
"Whether he notices us returning it is one thing, but after returning the Hidden Weapon, do you think Xiao San's vigilance wouldn't detect the anomaly?"
"Furthermore, you see that the Zhuge Divine Crossbow has already fired one bolt; could Xiao San not be clear about his own Hidden Weapon?"
"At this time, we should even less try to hide anything from him, otherwise, besides his mental state exploding, there might be many other troublesome matters."
Flender took a deep breath and said these words one by one.
Unlike Liu Erlong's silence,
at this moment, he truly felt a bit of a headache.
Liu Erlong's expression was very strange; she looked at Flender, then looked at the Zhuge Divine Crossbow again.
"Since there's no better way, then don't think so much about it, let's just leave it at that!"
"If we can't hide it from Xiao San, then so be it; when the time comes, we'll properly soothe him, and we should be able to ensure Xiao San's mood isn't too greatly affected!"
Liu Erlong's temper flared up.
She had never liked using her brain.
In just this short moment, she truly felt as if her brain was crashing.
Flender read Liu Erlong's agitation and decisively stopped talking about this matter.
Gazing into the distance in the direction where Jirou Yueguan and Tianwu Guimei had left,
the two slowly headed back toward the hotel.
In the night sky, only faint sighs remained.
……
The next day.
In Tang San's room.
Just like the scene yesterday where everyone was in his room discussing matters regarding the Spirit Master Tournament finals,
everyone from the Shrek Team, including Flender and Liu Erlong, was here.
Today, everyone was silent here, and everyone had a very strange expression as they looked at the Zhuge Divine Crossbow on the table.
Everyone was examining the Zhuge Divine Crossbow while also examining Tang San.
The events of last night, including what Jirou Yueguan and Tianwu Guimei had said, had already been relayed by Flender and Liu Erlong.
They knew too well Tang San's obsession with Hidden Weapons.
Hidden Weapon? A piece of junk that even dogs wouldn't use.
Such a statement would definitely cause a huge impact on Tang San's emotions.
Tang San looked with a "calm" expression at the Zhuge Divine Crossbow on the table that had clearly been touched.
He did not fly into a rage as everyone had worried.
Maintaining an "indifferent" appearance, he remained silent here for a long time before finally letting out a heavy breath.
"Dean Flender, Teacher Er Long, you don't need to worry about me."
"Hidden Weapons have indeed accompanied me for a very long time, and I do have a lot of feelings for them."
"However, you said the person who snuck in was a Title Douluo; Title Douluo stand at the pinnacle of the Spirit Master World, so since they said that, they must have their reasons."
"After all, external objects like Hidden Weapons truly don't have much help for Title Douluo."
"So, you don't need to worry that my state of mind will be affected."
Tang San answered everyone "calmly."
Knowing what everyone was worried about, he completely put on an appearance that there was no need for such concern.
Everyone let out a long sigh of relief.
Flender and Liu Erlong exchanged a glance.
The heavy stone in their hearts fell silently to the ground.
Flender patted Tang San on the shoulder lightly: "Since that's the case, then Xiao San, you should prepare for the Spirit Master Tournament finals with peace of mind!"
"In this Spirit Master Tournament, our Shrek Academy will definitely shine brilliantly!"
Tang San gave a grunt of acknowledgment.
He accepted these instructions from Flender.
After confirming once more that Tang San had no issues, Flender and Liu Erlong left Tang San's room.
The others from the Shrek Seven Devils left with them, leaving only Tang San and Dai Mubai behind.
"Xiao San, are you sure there's no problem?" Dai Mubai asked again, still uneasy.
"Boss Dai, it's nothing. There's no need to worry about me too much. If these things were enough to affect me, then I wouldn't be Tang San."
Tang San answered very "naturally."
No matter how one looked at it, he appeared to be perfectly fine.
"If anything happens, you must say so. Since you call me Boss Dai, I will certainly help wherever I can!"
Dai Mubai could not see through Tang San; he patted Tang San heavily on the shoulder and said meaningfully.
Speaking with great seriousness, Dai Mubai was still quite satisfied with Tang San calling him Boss Dai.
His expression carried a hint of comfort, completely unaware that he could only enjoy the title of "Boss Dai" now, and in the future, it would only be "Mubai," nearly becoming a "Little Dai."
Tang San maintained his "indifferent" expression, and after chatting with Dai Mubai for a few more sentences, he finally sent Dai Mubai out of his room.
The moment Dai Mubai left the room, with no one else around, Tang San no longer maintained his hypocritical facade.
In an instant, a sinister expression immediately shrouded his face.
This scene happened to fall right into the eyes of Jirou Yueguan and Tianwu Guimei.
In order to gather intelligence, the two had not gone too far, and they also harbored a bit of a troublemaker's mentality, wanting to see Tang San's reaction.
And so, they had come early in the morning, prepared to observe Tang San's reaction.
As luck would have it, the two saw Tang San's "Sichuan opera face-changing" act in its entirety.
"Heh, this little brat named Tang San, his craftiness is truly not ordinary; this face-changing skill is very on point."
"Indeed, it's very on point. Having held it in for so long, I reckon he's about to explode. Shall we guess what he'll do next?"
Jirou Yueguan and Tianwu Guimei conversed.
Unable to pin down Tang San's thoughts, the two began to analyze with great interest.
Just as the two were feeling very curious, a legendary scene was already unfolding in Tang San's room.
With a sinister face, Tang San took the Zhuge Divine Crossbow back into his hands.
His palm gently stroked the Zhuge Divine Crossbow, his eyes burning with raging fury, wishing he could burn everything to ashes.
"Title Douluo? That's only because I haven't brought out the real good stuff yet!"
"But even so, that is no reason for you to humiliate my Hidden Weapon as something not even a dog would use!"
"Hmph! Even if you are Title Douluo—"
"You, too, have found your own path to death!!"
