Chapter 54: Plagiarizing Dog
Lin Yu mocked: "When you, Yu Xiaogang, were young, you hooked up with the then-innocent Spirit Hall Saintess Bibi Dong, utilizing Bibi Dong's status and identity in the Spirit Hall."
"In the Spirit Hall Library, which possesses the largest reserve of spirit master knowledge in the entire Douluo Continent, you secretly stole a large amount of martial soul theoretical knowledge."
"But you took the knowledge you stole and plagiarized from the Spirit Hall Library and claimed it was your own years of research."
"In this world where spirit master theoretical knowledge is not circulated and most knowledge is held by a few, you published the plagiarized knowledge as the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Souls theory, thus becoming famous, and were even given the title of Master Yu."
"Do you dare to say that your knowledge wasn't plagiarized from the Spirit Hall?"
The Douluo Continent world is actually like this; a large amount of spirit master knowledge is held by a few.
Knowledge is wealth!
Major forces will not share knowledge with the entire continent casually.
And Yu Xiaogang published the plagiarized knowledge as the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Souls theory. Any slightly larger spirit master sect or family actually knows this.
It's just that some small families, small forces, or low-level spirit masters and civilian spirit masters don't understand it very well.
This is also one of the main reasons why Yu Xiaogang is called Master Yu, invincible in martial soul theory, but also mocked, ridiculed, and highly questioned by others.
Another main reason is that Yu Xiaogang is only a level 29 Great Spirit Master.
"You! You!" Yu Xiaogang pointed at Lin Yu with trembling hands, his face becoming increasingly ugly, clearly panicked: "How is it possible! How is it possible! How could this kid know these things!"
A painful memory instantly surged into Yu Xiaogang's heart.
That was a memory from when Yu Xiaogang was young. He met Bibi Dong during a trip, and after learning that Bibi Dong was the Spirit Hall Saintess, he had evil intentions to use Bibi Dong's identity to steal and plagiarize the Spirit Hall's knowledge.
Yu Xiaogang came from an excellent background, a direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family!
But he was just a piece of trash with half a level of innate soul power, and his martial soul mutated, awakening a Luo San Pao martial soul that the Blue Lightning Family considered extremely shameful.
He became the shame of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family!
He was kicked out of the family by the Blue Lightning at 18!
Knowing that it was difficult for him to cultivate into a powerhouse, Yu Xiaogang early on had the idea of walking the path of researching martial soul theory.
So after meeting Bibi Dong, Yu Xiaogang tried his best to please Bibi Dong.
He wanted to use Bibi Dong to enter the Pope Palace to steal knowledge, wanted to make a name for himself on the path of martial soul theory, to prove to the Blue Lightning Family that he, Yu Xiaogang, was not a complete piece of trash!
And at that time, Bibi Dong was still an innocent, simple, and naive girl.
This allowed Yu Xiaogang to successfully capture Bibi Dong's heart, and then he mixed into the core of the Spirit Hall.
With Bibi Dong's assistance, Yu Xiaogang secretly entered the library every day to steal knowledge.
Finally, he published his martial soul theory, successfully becoming famous on the continent, achieving fame in one go, and gaining a large amount of reputation.
It was also because Yu Xiaogang secretly entered the library to plagiarize that the high-level officials of the Spirit Hall didn't know that Yu Xiaogang was stealing knowledge from their own Wuhun City library?
They thought Yu Xiaogang had some substance and researched it himself.
So under Bibi Dong's strong recommendation, Yu Xiaogang later also became an honorary elder of the Spirit Hall, achieving extremely high status and identity in one go!
But because Qian Xunji disagreed back then, Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang were together.
After becoming famous, Yu Xiaogang was afraid of being wiped out by Qian Xunji, so he left the Spirit Hall forces very quickly. (Details will be explained in tomorrow's chapter.)
Very few people on the continent knew that he had joined the Spirit Hall, and Yu Xiaogang had never publicly claimed that he had joined the Spirit Hall or was an honorary elder.
It was just because he was worried that if he said it, others would say his theoretical knowledge wasn't researched by himself, but learned and stolen from the Spirit Hall, which would definitely affect his reputation as a Master.
So Lin Yu saying these things, although there was no actual evidence to prove he plagiarized, made Yu Xiaogang, who was already guilty, start to panic.
"If I continue to let this kid talk, I'm afraid... I'm afraid it will make me lose all reputation!"
"Shut up! You shut up!!" Yu Xiaogang was anxious, failing to control his emotions for a moment, and roared extremely ungracefully.
He was not a person who was easily impulsive, ungraceful, or not calm.
But Yu Xiaogang had been holding back a breath inside, wanting one day to make everyone who questioned him and ridiculed his martial soul theory shut their mouths, and become a true martial soul theory master!
Slap everyone in the face and step onto the peak of theory!
But his learning ability was limited after all, and he didn't have that height. Despite holding a large amount of stolen Spirit Hall knowledge, it was very difficult to change the current situation of being ridiculed and questioned.
But Tang San's appearance gave Yu Xiaogang hope and endless desire!
Tang San had innate full soul power, extremely high talent, and his martial soul happened to be the trash martial soul called Blue Silver Grass.
This was simply the best tool for him, Yu Xiaogang, to break all doubts, step onto the peak of spirit master theory, make everyone shut up, and prove himself!
As long as he let Tang San successfully develop and become a powerhouse!
By then, all ridicule and questioning would be self-defeating, allowing him to step onto the peak of martial soul theory, become a true Master, be respected and honored by people, and no one would dare to look down on him again!
Thereby holding his head high and realizing his ambitions.
Therefore, face, reputation, and dignity were the things Yu Xiaogang cared about most right now.
If others knew that his martial soul theoretical knowledge wasn't researched by himself but plagiarized, his future would be ruined, and he would be scolded by others!
It was precisely because he cared so much that Yu Xiaogang was so ungraceful. His face, anxious to make Lin Yu shut up, already clearly revealed panic and the hypocrisy of wanting to cover up the truth, showing his flaws.
Although Yu Xiaogang quickly realized he was ungraceful, his reaction just now had been seen by the onlookers.
"Holy crap! This Yu Xiaogang's martial soul theoretical knowledge couldn't really be plagiarized from the Spirit Hall and then claimed as his own research, right?"
"If that kid is talking nonsense, why is Yu Xiaogang so panicked? This Yu Xiaogang must have a problem!"
"If it really was plagiarized knowledge claimed as his own years of research, then this Yu Xiaogang is too shameless!"
"Damn! Didn't expect this Yu Xiaogang to be such a shameless person!"
"What kind of Master Yu is this! A plagiarizing dog who claims knowledge as his own and says he researched it himself can also become a Master? Then wouldn't everyone be able to become a Master!"
A burst of insults suddenly erupted from the onlookers at the scene.
"Could it be that Teacher really..." Tang San was not stupid either. From Yu Xiaogang's expression and reaction just now, he could also see that what Lin Yu said might all be true.
