After Tang Chuan chose not to announce his reward…
Lines of text once again emerged upon the golden heavenly screen that blanketed the sky above both the Black World and the White World.
Simultaneously, the grand yet cold voice of the heavenly screen continued to resonate in the minds of everyone and all sentient Soul Beasts in both the Black World and the White World.
[In view of White World Tang Chuan choosing not to announce the rewards.] [Next, the punishment phase will begin immediately!] Black World, Shrek Academy.
Having been crushingly defeated by Tang Chuan in the vote, Tang San was completely unable to accept reality; his eyes were bloodshot, his fists were clenched, and he was breathing like a bull.
Discovering that Tang Chuan chose not to announce the rewards, Tang San immediately roared through gritted teeth.
“This Tang Chuan doesn’t even dare to announce the rewards!” “He is clearly a selfish, cowardly, hypocritical, and weak villain.
What right does he have to be stronger than me!” “Those people who chose to vote for him instead of me must be blind!” “If I had won,” “I would have announced the rewards fair and square!” “That’s right!
This Tang Chuan is just a shady villain!” “Little San, let’s not lower ourselves to his level!” “I believe in you, Little San.
You are definitely stronger than that Tang Chuan!” …Beside him, hearing Tang San’s words filled with anger and resentment, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and Ning Rongrong naturally offered their comfort, expressing their support for Tang San.
Of course, it was only a verbal expression.
Deep down, Dai Mubai, Ning Rongrong, and Ma Hongjun were not fools.
Give it a rest!
This time, you only dare to say you would definitely announce the rewards because you didn’t get any.
If you actually received a reward, who knows if you’d really choose to announce it!
Regarding things one doesn’t possess, anyone can make loud, thunderous claims about ‘what if’!
But when it comes to things one actually has, there’s a high probability they’ll just avoid the subject.
After all…
those things actually exist!
…On the golden heavenly screen spanning the Black World and the White World, after the start of the punishment phase was announced, an image began to surface on the golden curtain.
Soon, the figure of a middle-aged man appeared, wearing black academic robes, with a thin build, a crew cut, stubble on his face, a stiff expression, and a weary, weathered temperament.
In the upper left corner, it was labeled: Black World · Yu Xiaogang.
“What?!” In the Black World, seeing himself appearing in the punishment phase, Yu Xiaogang’s expression changed drastically, and he clenched his fists.
Although he had already accepted the possibility of facing punishment during the voting, when it actually happened and he was displayed directly on the heavenly screen, Yu Xiaogang’s heart began to fill with fear and panic.
The heavenly screen specifically set up a punishment phase; could the punishment be very severe?
He had thought the punishment would at most be a fine or something similar.
He didn’t have any money anyway, so he had felt secure in his lack of fear.
But now, it seemed something was wrong!
“Teacher!!” Not expecting his teacher to enter the punishment phase, Tang San looked at Yu Xiaogang in disbelief, wondering how Yu Xiaogang had voted for such a result to occur.
Beside them, Dai Mubai, Ning Rongrong, and Ma Hongjun cast strange looks at Yu Xiaogang.
Could this Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang really be that stupid?
When we said we’d vote for Tang San, we were just saying that.
Did you really go against your conscience and actually cast your vote for Tang San?
For a moment, Ning Rongrong could hardly contain herself and almost laughed out loud.
Martial Soul Theory Master Yu Xiaogang?
This title seems a bit unworthy of the name!
Soon, the cold voice of the heavenly screen began to announce the reason.
[This heavenly screen has repeatedly reminded that when voting, one must follow their heart and must not vote against their heart.] [Black World · Yu Xiaogang went against his heart during the vote and cast his vote for Black World · Asura God and Sea God Tang San; this heavenly screen shall bestow punishment!] [Punishment: Deprivation of the Golden Holy Dragon Martial Soul Origin within his Martial Soul, Luo Sanpao!] In the next instant, a dazzling beam of pitch-black light shot down from the golden heavenly screen in the Black World, instantly enveloping Yu Xiaogang on the Shrek Academy training grounds.
After being enveloped by the black pillar of light, Yu Xiaogang suddenly felt a heart-wrenching, agonizing pain as if his entire body were splitting apart; he couldn’t help but scream shrilly and collapsed to his knees.
Behind him, a strange Martial Soul—shaped like a piglet, exceptionally plump, primarily purple with a white belly and face, short thick limbs with small claws, and a pair of ears like palm-leaf fans—instantly emerged.
Amidst panicked “Luo Luo!” sounds, it was sucked into the sky.
Then, countless golden streams of light were continuously extracted from it.
Amidst Luo Sanpao’s painful screams, a liquid-like golden light orb coalesced in the air.
“Xiaogang!!” Seeing this scene in the Black World, Bibi Dong, Liu Erlong, Flender, Yu Yuanzhen, and the others couldn’t help but be anxious and worried, crying out in alarm.
Yet they could only watch helplessly as Yu Xiaogang suffered in the broadcast, falling to the ground, wailing and screaming shrilly.
The “Luo Luo!” screams of Luo Sanpao in the air gradually turned into the sounds of a slaughtered pig, and its form changed from the relatively unique Luo Sanpao shape into a pink Piggy Beast Martial Soul.
At this moment, Yu Xiaogang finally couldn’t hold on any longer, fainted, and fell to the ground.
As for the liquid-like golden light orb, it followed the black pillar of light and was instantly pulled into the golden heavenly screen, disappearing from sight.
“Xiaogang!” “Teacher!” “Grandmaster!” …After the black pillar of light disappeared, Flender, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and the others rushed over to help Yu Xiaogang up.
Shao Xin quickly hurried over, summoned his Jelly Bean Martial Soul, recited a soul incantation, and activated a soul skill with healing effects, creating a healing Jelly Bean to feed to Yu Xiaogang.
At this time, although Yu Xiaogang was unconscious, his mind was filled with resentment and a sense of injustice.
Why!
Clearly Little San, Xiao Wu, Dai Mubai, and the others also voted for Little San.
Why was I the only one punished!
On the other side.
White World, Blue Silver Forest.
After the heavenly screen punished the Black World’s Yu Xiaogang by stripping the Golden Holy Dragon origin from within his Martial Soul, Luo Sanpao, in the next moment, a grand and cold voice once again rang out in Tang Chuan’s mind.
“In view of this being the first Dual Douluo Comparison,” “As the winner, you have triggered a special reward.” “Do you accept the Golden Holy Dragon Martial Soul Origin from the Black World Yu Xiaogang’s Martial Soul, Luo Sanpao?” “This Martial Soul origin can be fused into a Martial Soul to enhance its quality.” “It can also be stored separately and completed through opportunities such as Immortal Herbs, sacrifices from Soul Beasts over a hundred thousand years old, the Ten-Headed Blazing Sun Snake Inner Core, or the Dark Demonic Evil God Bead to transform into a complete Martial Soul.”
