“Isn’t he from the same village as you? Are you not going to try and persuade him again?”
After Tang San left, Wang Sheng looked at Li Tian, puzzled.
Li Tian said, “Everyone has their own choices. Didn’t you see he was about to lose control?”
Recalling Tang San’s man-eating gaze from just now, Wang Sheng immediately fell silent.
To be willing to do this much for someone they just met, it was somewhat preposterous.
Was Tang San that easily fooled?
Xiao Wu asked curiously, “Who is that Grandmaster you guys are talking about?”
“Alright, say less.”
Wang Sheng was about to open his mouth to introduce him to Xiao Wu but was interrupted by Li Tian.
Xiao Wu still had to do missions with Tang San.
What if Tang San found out Wang Sheng was slandering his beloved father behind his back?
Wouldn’t he try to find a way to kill Wang Sheng?
Xiao Wu said displeased, “What do you mean? You won’t say anything yourself, and you won’t let others say anything either?”
“Don’t be angry, don’t be angry, I’ll tell you.”
Wang Sheng clearly didn’t realize Li Tian’s painstaking efforts and introduced the Grandmaster to Xiao Wu as if coaxing a girlfriend.
Li Tian shook his head and turned to walk into the dormitory.
He was willing to remind Wang Sheng because they got along quite well.
However, good words are hard to persuade a doomed ghost.
Since he wanted to fawn over Xiao Wu, then let him go, as long as he didn't regret it later.
“Hmph, what’s there that can’t be said?”
After learning about Yu Xiaogang, Xiao Wu’s heart was filled with disdain; he was just a Spirit Grandmaster.
What was there to be afraid of?
Back in the dormitory, Wang Sheng asked, “Xiao Wu, you didn’t bring bedding either, did you?”
“Uh…”
Xiao Wu’s expression stiffened; as a transformed Spirit Beast, where would she find bedding?
“You can use mine first. I can use one blanket half-covered and half-spread.”
“You can use my quilt too. I’ll just use the mattress.”
Upon learning that Xiao Wu didn’t have a quilt, someone immediately offered their help, a treatment Tang San didn’t receive.
Xiao Wu glanced at their bedding.
Although it wasn’t exactly dirty, most of it was tattered.
This made her feel a bit disgusted.
She then looked at Li Tian’s bedding, which was also covered in patches.
It was just relatively better.
However, she had just snapped at Li Tian twice, so she felt awkward speaking up.
She would just talk about it before going to bed tonight.
…
Yu Xiaogang was very depressed because his little scheme had been seen through by Notting Dean.
The other party refused to let him stay.
However, out of consideration for their past friendship, the other party didn’t immediately drive him away.
He was allowed to stay until Flender arrived.
However, all his expenses within the academy from now on would have to be paid.
Fortunately, Flender should be arriving soon.
Although he was poor, he had no problem covering his food expenses for a while.
After all, he received a subsidy from Spirit Hall every month.
Once Flender arrived, he could ask Flender to help him rent a house nearby.
This way, he could stay in Nuoding City.
“Knock, knock, knock!”
“Enter!”
The door suddenly knocked, Yu Xiaogang responded, and Tang San pushed the door open.
“Little San, why are you here?”
Tang San said awkwardly, “Teacher, I forgot to bring bedding. Can you…”
Yu Xiaogang’s expression stiffened.
All his food and clothing were covered by the academy, so he didn’t have extra bedding; he would have to buy it.
Fortunately, a set of bedding wouldn’t cost much.
Yu Xiaogang waved his hand, pretending not to care, and said, “It’s fine. Teacher will take you to buy some later.”
Tang San said gratefully, “Thank you, Teacher.”
Yu Xiaogang said, “Coincidentally, I have something to tell you. Come, sit down.”
Tang San walked closer and sat down.
Yu Xiaogang said, “You should have been to the dormitory already, and recognized all your roommates, right?”
Tang San nodded and said, “I’ve recognized them all.”
Actually, he hadn’t; putting Li Tian aside, he only knew Wang Sheng and Xiao Wu.
The reason he said that was because he was afraid of making his teacher misunderstand.
What if he said no, and his teacher thought he couldn’t even handle such a small matter and looked down on him?
Yu Xiaogang said, “I’m giving you a task.”
“Teacher, what kind of task is it?”
Tang San was a little confused because a hint of brilliance flashed in his teacher’s eyes when he said that.
Yu Xiaogang said, “You know Li Tian, right?”
Tang San was startled and said, “Yes, he and I are from the same village.”
“What?!”
Yu Xiaogang exclaimed in shock, dumbfounded.
Tang San was actually born in the same village as Li Tian.
One must know that children from the same village, no matter what, had a stronger relationship than with a stranger like him.
And that Li Tian was so resistant to him.
What if he slandered him a few times? Wouldn’t his newly accepted Disciple, Tang San, be gone?
Damn it!
Yu Xiaogang asked, “Aren’t you from Spiritless Village? How could you be from the same village as him?”
He remembered Li Tian was from Saint Spirit Village.
Tang San explained, “Each village only has one work-study student quota. I’m registered under the neighboring village.”
Yu Xiaogang: “…”
Tang San asked, “Teacher, is there a problem with us being from the same village?”
“No, no…”
Yu Xiaogang waved his hand, pretending to be relaxed, and probed, “Then did you tell him that you became my Disciple?”
“Yes, he was the one who told me about your dormitory.”
Tang San was full of doubts, not understanding the purpose of his teacher asking these questions.
Yu Xiaogang: “…”
That shouldn’t be. That kid is so resistant to me, how could he not say anything?
Could it be…
Yu Xiaogang seemed to think of something and asked, “Is your relationship with him not very good?”
Tang San was startled.
He thought, as expected of a teacher, he saw through his relationship with Li Tian in just a few words.
“Yes.”
“I feel that most people my age are very childish, so I’m not very willing to play with them.”
“So, I can only say we are acquaintances.”
Tang San explained the reason, mainly because he was afraid his teacher would misunderstand that he had a personality problem.
Yu Xiaogang suddenly understood.
This made sense.
If their relationship wasn’t good, Li Tian naturally wouldn’t say much. After all, what did Tang San’s life or death have to do with him?
However, this also meant it would be difficult to recruit him through Tang San.
Of course, it wasn’t without benefits. At least he no longer had to worry about Li Tian misleading Tang San.
Let’s give it a try.
Yu Xiaogang said, “His talent is very good. I plan to take him as a Disciple as well.”
“It’s just…”
After thinking, Yu Xiaogang continued, “Because of some gossip, he has some misunderstandings about me.”
Tang San frowned.
“Teacher, since he is so blind, why should you lower yourself?”
“Isn’t it enough to have me as your Disciple?”
“Don’t worry, one day I will let him know what he truly missed.”
It must be said.
Tang San’s words made Yu Xiaogang feel very comfortable, but he did not change his mind because of it.
“I naturally believe in you.”
“But you must know that one person’s strength is ultimately limited.”
“You need friends.”
“Although Li Tian’s talent is not as good as yours, his Spirit quality is very high.”
“With his help,”
“Whether it’s the future Spirit Master competition or if you want to achieve something after graduation,”
“It will be much easier.”
