Yu Xiaogang possessed a remarkably resilient character.
He was angry, but he would never be defeated by his anger.
“Tang San, why did you say that?” Currently unable to speak in the live stream, Yu Xiaogang could only question Tang San.
On the training grounds of Shrek Academy, Yu Xiaogang’s face was frighteningly dark.
Yet Tang San remained unmoved, appearing completely justified.
“I cannot allow you, Teacher, to become a liar.” Tang San said with utmost seriousness.
Upon hearing Tang San’s words, Yu Xiaogang’s lips twitched involuntarily.
Not wanting him to become a liar—wasn’t that essentially saying that if Tang San hadn’t spoken, he would have been a liar!
At this moment, Yu Xiaogang was also left speechless.
“Then let me ask you, was it appropriate for you to say that?” “Couldn’t you have waited for your teacher to rephrase it himself?” Yu Xiaogang still harbored some resentment.
Tang San’s remarks in the live stream had completely turned him into a clown.
“Yu Xiaogang, would you have said it yourself?” “Then why didn’t you speak up just now!?” At that moment, Xiao Wu immediately stepped forward to stand beside Tang San, speaking in his defense.
Upon hearing this, although Tang San gave no verbal response, his calm expression seemed to say everything.
Simultaneously, the other members of the Shrek Seven Monsters also cast doubtful glances at Yu Xiaogang.
Xiao Wu was right—if Yu Xiaogang truly wanted to speak for himself, how could he have waited for Tang San to speak first?
It must be noted that Tang San’s comment came quite late in the discussion.
Some Spirit Masters had already been exchanging ideas for a long time.
At this moment, Yu Xiaogang’s face grew even darker.
“I was waiting for the right moment,” Yu Xiaogang explained, though he did not specify what that moment was.
“Brother San, this ‘Master’ seems like a fraud to me.” Xiao Wu whispered softly into Tang San’s ear.
Ever since the Heavenly Screen live stream began, Xiao Wu had begun to awaken somewhat.
There was no helping it—Chen Yu’s performance was simply too heaven-defying.
At less than four years old, he had already begun creating cultivation techniques.
Meanwhile, this so-called “Master,” who had only broken through to the 29th level in his fifties, had yet to produce any notable theories.
With such a comparison, it was hard not to question what exactly made Yu Xiaogang a theoretical master!
Hearing Xiao Wu’s words, Tang San fell silent for a moment.
As someone who revered teachers and upheld the way, since he had taken Yu Xiaogang as his master, he could not speak ill of him.
Even if Xiao Wu criticized his teacher, he could not agree.
But could he really not see that Yu Xiaogang’s level was lacking?
Looking back carefully now, and considering Chen Yu’s actions, he had long realized that Yu Xiaogang’s theoretical prowess was unimpressive.
When Yu Xiaogang had previously spoken to him about the Ten-Year Lonely Bamboo, he had even felt somewhat angry.
If it hadn’t been for that Mandala Snake back then, wouldn’t he have had to absorb a Ten-Year Lonely Bamboo?
Thus, faced with Xiao Wu’s words, Tang San remained silent.
Yet sometimes, silence itself is an attitude.
Meanwhile.
Within the Heavenly Screen live stream, another incident occurred.
Someone asked Yu Xiaogang about the function of Whale Glue.
But Yu Xiaogang failed to respond for a long time.
At that moment, within the Heavenly Screen live stream, Ning Fengzhi, the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, also spoke up.
“All Spirit Masters, before the Heavenly Screen reveals Chen Yu’s secret of Whale Glue, anyone who comes to my Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda Sect to disclose the secret of Whale Glue will be generously rewarded by me, Ning Fengzhi.” As the foremost merchant on the continent, Ning Fengzhi immediately seized the opportunity to post an advertisement in the live stream’s comment section.
Shortly after, Qian Renxue, representing the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, issued a similar announcement.
The Spirit Hall, the Star Luo Imperial Family, and other major factions all released identical statements.
Unfortunately, by now, Whale Glue had already been purchased by some powerful factions.
Ordinary people had very little Whale Glue in their possession and dared not conduct experiments recklessly.
As for those major factions, although they possessed large quantities of Whale Glue, they were unwilling to take such risks.
After all, wasting Whale Glue aside, what if Chen Yu were to reveal the secret of Whale Glue immediately?
Thus, the secret of Whale Glue remained undiscovered.
Next, the Heavenly Screen live stream began discussing cultivation techniques.
Since Chen Yu’s Ice Heart Formula was not concealed, all Spirit Masters across the Douluo Continent knew its contents.
With slight modifications, it could be transformed into an attribute-less version of the Basic Cultivation Method.
Ice Attribute and Water Attribute Spirit Masters, in particular, could cultivate it directly without any changes.
Now, after a day had passed, countless Ice and Water Attribute Spirit Masters had successfully cultivated it.
Some Spirit Masters proudly shared their experiences in the live stream.
“Haha, cultivating the Ice Heart Formula has increased my cultivation speed by ten percent.
We Ice Attribute Spirit Masters are about to rise!” “Praise Chen Yu!” “Haha, the person above is useless.
I’ve increased mine by twenty percent.” “I’ve achieved thirty percent!” “What?
How is that possible?
How did you get thirty percent?” “Maybe it’s because my Snow Spirit Demon Bear Martial Soul is particularly strong!” “No way, my Enamel Fortune Crocodile isn’t weak either!” “Could it be that the Ice Heart Formula is most suitable for Ice Attribute Spirit Masters, followed by Water Attribute Spirit Masters?” In the live stream, some Ice and Water Attribute Spirit Masters had already begun exchanging insights.
Spirit Masters of other attributes, seeing the discussions among Ice and Water Attribute Spirit Masters, grew anxious.
A ten or twenty percent increase in cultivation speed was understandable, but a thirty percent boost was truly extraordinary.
Consider this: Tang San, with Innate Full Soul Power, reached level 29 by age twelve.
Ning Rongrong, an auxiliary-type Spirit Master with Innate nine-level Soul Power and the Seven Treasure Glazed Pagoda Martial Soul, also reached level 26 by age twelve.
Zhu Zhuqing, with Innate seven-level Soul Power, reached level 27 by age twelve due to her diligence.
Regardless, awakening the Martial Soul at age six meant six years of cultivation by age twelve.
In other words, Tang San advanced nineteen levels in six years.
This calculation excludes the boosts from Soul Rings, as the benefits of higher-level Soul Rings were partly due to Tang San’s rigorous physical training to withstand them.
It also disregards Soul Power before level ten, as the amount required before level ten might be less than that needed for a single level afterward.
Ning Rongrong advanced sixteen levels in six years.
Zhu Zhuqing advanced seventeen levels in six years.
If 16 × 1.2, the result would be 19.2.
This means an auxiliary-type Spirit Master, with inherently slower cultivation speed and lower Innate Soul Power, could catch up to Tang San.
And remember, Tang San cultivated the Mysterious Heaven Technique.
Applying this to Zhu Zhuqing would be even more astounding.
17 × 1.2 = 20.4 What about a 1.3-fold increase in cultivation speed?
One would reach 20.8.
The other would reach 22.1.
He was about to surpass Tang San.
However, if Tang San were to dedicate all the time he usually spent forging, crafting hidden weapons, and playing with Xiao Wu to cultivation instead, then Tang San’s cultivation speed would still be the fastest.
Nevertheless, this was already enough to astonish everyone.
“A 1.3x cultivation speed—isn’t that comparable to a Spirit Master with Innate Full Soul Power?” “Is there a higher multiplier?
Is there?” “And isn’t the Snow Spirit Demon Bear the best ice-attribute Martial Soul either?” In the livestream, some Spirit Masters began probing for information.
Faced with the inquiries from other Spirit Masters in the livestream, Shui Bing’er of the Tianshui Academy remained silent.
She had long known just how extraordinary her 1.5x cultivation speed was!
Moreover, she could also use the Martial Soul Fusion Skill with Xue Wu, allowing both of them to cultivate together, further boosting their speed.
This was the most incredible part.
Shui Bing’er had long been prepared to win the championship in this continent-wide Advanced Spirit Master Academy Grand Competition!
At the same time, the Spirit Masters from other major factions also wore exceptionally serious expressions.
And at this moment, Yu Xiaogang stepped forward!
