Chapter 67: Tang San Borrowing Money is Truly Like a Chrysanthemum Eating Melon Seeds—How Could You Even Open Your Mouth!

Wuhun City,

This is the holy land of the entire Douluo Continent; it is only because of the existence of Douluo Hall within it that Wuhun City is considered a holy land by the vast majority of Spirit Masters.

Yu Xiaogang, dressed in plain cloth, entered Wuhun City after a detailed inspection.

Someone of his age and low strength entering Wuhun City would not attract anyone's attention at all.

Without a moment's rest, he walked quickly toward the most magnificent building in Wuhun City.

The Pope Palace.

The holy land's status is also due in part to the existence of the Pope Palace.

Yu Xiaogang slowly stepped forward.

"Halt!"

Before he could even step onto the stairs of the Pope Palace, two Silver Knights clad in silver armor quickly blocked his path.

The remaining hundred or so knights also quickly prepared themselves, raising the long swords in their hands, ready to act at any moment.

As long as Yu Xiaogang dared to step onto the stairs, they would execute him without hesitation.

"Halt."

"This is a Forbidden Land; take one more step closer, and you will be killed without mercy."

Yu Xiaogang, expressionless and very indifferent, took a token out from inside his chest.

With this token present, no one dared to act presumptuously.

This was precisely the Elder Token that Tang Hao had given him back then.

He felt a bit of emotion at this moment; it was fortunate that he had kept the Elder Token on his person back then and had not placed it in his Storage Soul Guidance Bracelet, otherwise, the Elder Token would have fallen into Flender's hands.

Furthermore, without the Elder Token, he likely wouldn't even have been able to get in today.

Everything was such a coincidence.

The leading Silver Knight stepped forward quickly to observe it carefully.

When he saw the six patterns on the token clearly,

He couldn't help but shiver uncontrollably.

"Thump."

He fell to his knees on one leg with a thump to pay his respects.

"Greetings, Elder."

The hundred or so Silver Knights performed the same action in unison, kneeling on one leg.

At this very moment, it seemed as if Yu Xiaogang were an incredibly impressive figure, but in reality, this was merely borrowing the tiger's might; the Elder Token in his hand belonged to someone else.

"Take me to see the Pope."

Yu Xiaogang used the simplest words to tell the other party his purpose.

The method for Tang San to break through lay with the Pope, Bibi Dong.

The leading Silver Knight said respectfully, "Yes!"

Inside Shrek Academy, Tang San's stomach was growling incessantly.

He had been hungry for two days; he really couldn't take it anymore.

He wandered around Shrek Academy, hoping to find something to eat.

He looked to see if there was anything left over by the dogs to scramble for a little bit.

Anyway, things like losing face were no longer that important.

Being alive was more important than anything else.

But unfortunately, there were no dogs kept in Shrek Academy; he couldn't even compete with a dog for food.

As Tang San searched continuously, a strange fragrance suddenly caught his attention.

The scent of meat, the scent of vegetables, the scent of steamed buns—various aromas were mixed together.

He followed that fragrance and kept moving forward.

When he saw the building ahead, he froze.

Ahead was the Shrek Academy cafeteria.

The fragrance was coming from inside.

Tang San swallowed his saliva and finally made up his mind to walk toward the cafeteria.

The large characters written by Flender earlier were still on it:

Yu Xiaogang, Tang San, and dogs are not allowed to enter!

He pondered for a moment, quickly wiped away the two characters "Tang San," and then stepped into the cafeteria.

Yu Xiaogang and dogs are not allowed to enter.

"San?"

Ma Hongjun was just about to pick up a piece of succulent meat to stuff into his mouth when he suddenly saw Tang San's figure.

Instantly, everyone in the cafeteria looked toward Tang San in confusion.

"Why have you come here?"

"Isn't your godfather supposed to be taking you to live a good life?"

Tang San smiled awkwardly.

What good life? If it weren't for his godfather saying he would take him to live a good life back then, he wouldn't be starving now.

Now, there was clearly food in the cafeteria, but he couldn't eat it.

"My godfather is not here; can I eat a little here?"

"I haven't eaten for two days."

He glanced at the few people, and finally fixed his gaze on Shao Xin, the head chef of Shrek Academy.

Shao Xin did not even look at him.

"If you want to eat here, go find Dean Flender; if he agrees, I have no objections."

"If he does not agree, I cannot give you food on my own authority."

Tang San was stunned for a moment and did not know what else to say.

Find Dean Flender.

It was the Dean himself who had said not to let him eat in the cafeteria in the first place.

So now, if he went to find the Dean, how could the Dean possibly agree?

Finally, he shamelessly looked toward Ma Hongjun again.

"Ma Hongjun, could you lend me some money? I will pay you back the day after tomorrow when I receive my subsidy from the Spirit Hall next month."

Ma Hongjun's eyes widened.

"San Chuan!"

"You really are a chrysanthemum cracking melon seeds."

"How could you even open your mouth to ask!"

"Borrowing money from me?"

Tang San smiled awkwardly, then turned his gaze toward Ye Lin and Xiao Wu.

After all, they had all come out of Notting Academy together, and he was even from the same village as Ye Lin.

Before Tang San could even speak, Ma Hongjun jumped out again.

"San Chuan, you aren't thinking of borrowing money from the girls, are you?"

"No, no,"

"How could I borrow money from girls?"

Tang San hurriedly shook his head.

"Since you aren't borrowing, then forget it,"

Ye Lin suddenly spoke, "I was actually going to lend you some if you were in trouble."

At this moment, Tang San really wanted to give Ma Hongjun a hard slap across the mouth; what were you saying?

If it weren't for you, I would have borrowed the money.

"Speaking of which, Tang San, where is your money?"

Xiao Wu asked with some confusion.

"What about your previous savings, and the Gold Soul Coins you got from winning those two matches at the Great Spirit Arena?"

"You shouldn't be so broke that you can't afford to eat now."

Tang San forced a smile.

"The money is all in my foster father's hands,"

He still shifted the blame onto Yu Xiaogang; anyway, Yu Xiaogang wasn't there, so he couldn't confront him.

"Tang San, how about this, I'll lend you the money,"

Dai Mubai scraped his bowl clean and set down his bowl and chopsticks.

"Mu Bai, thank you."

A look of surprise instantly appeared on Tang San's face.

"But I have one condition,"

Dai Mubai said slowly, a playful smile appearing on his face.

"What condition?"

"You go scrub the toilets; if you scrub the toilets, I'll lend it to you."

Instantly, the cafeteria went quiet.

Everyone looked at these two.

Tang San scrubbing toilets? This sounded somewhat inconceivable.

He figured Tang San wouldn't go; this kind of thing was truly a bit too embarrassing.

This matter didn't cause much physical harm, but the insult was extremely strong.

Tang San's right fist inside his sleeve clenched tightly; he wished he could give Dai Mubai a sound beating.

To dare to make him go scrub toilets!

This kind of thing was absolutely impossible for him to do!

Absolutely!

Not happening!

"How about it?"

"Tang San,"

"Have you considered it?"

Dai Mubai took a Gold Soul Coin out of his pocket.
