Chapter 332: Question: Why Does Yu Xiaogang Refuse to Teach at Notting Academy?
In the livestream.
Seeing Yu Xiaogang, who claimed to be engaged in research on soul weapon theory and didn't have time to teach, yet refused to teach even a single class at Notting Academy, the audience was left speechless and disgusted.
This Yu Xiaogang was truly hypocritical—saying one thing and doing another, his skill at pretending was absolutely unmatched!
However, a hypocritical disciple was well-matched with a hypocritical teacher. They were the perfect match!
After Tang San became Yu Xiaogang's disciple, the next step was to register. As Tang San was leaving the office after registering, he overheard several teachers mockingly calling Yu Xiaogang a clown.
In response, Tang San just held the package provided by the academy, a faint sneer appearing at the corner of his mouth.
Then, the livestream appropriately broadcasted Tang San's inner thoughts.
In Tang San's mind, he believed that Yu Xiaogang, being able to recognize him as a Twin Spirit at first glance, must be an incredibly powerful true master!
Upon hearing this, the livestream audience couldn't help but laugh again.
Because Yu Xiaogang's previous deductions were completely off the mark, and Tang San still considered him a master?
And the moment froze.
A line of blood-red text appeared before everyone's eyes.
A cold voice immediately sounded in everyone's ears.
[The event has ended, and the Q&A session now begins!]
[Question: Why does Yu Xiaogang refuse to teach at Notting Academy?]
[Rewards for this Q&A:]
[First place: A random martial arts technique (The system will match a suitable technique based on the participant's identity; this is available for both humans and soul beasts)]
[Second place: Human: A random thousand-year soul bone; Soul Beast: An increase of ten thousand years of cultivation!]
[Third place: A full set of Spirit Hall's Soul Beast Theory]
A random martial arts technique?
In the livestream, upon seeing the rewards for this Q&A, the big forces like Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School were not particularly interested in the second or third place rewards.
However, seeing that the first-place reward was a random martial arts technique, many forces and soul beasts were excited.
But as excited as they were, getting this reward would still depend on brains.
This time, the question was: Why does Yu Xiaogang refuse to teach at Notting Academy?
After the initial excitement, many Soul Master forces in the livestream began to ponder.
Based on Yu Xiaogang's behavior in the broadcast, most people with a bit of insight concluded that the main reason Yu Xiaogang refused to teach at Notting Academy was that he wasn't truly skilled and was afraid of exposing his lack of abilities.
That was why he refused to teach at Notting Academy.
Otherwise, he wouldn't even refuse to teach a single class.
If he started teaching and simply repeated the same things other teachers taught, failing to showcase any "mastery" that would win the students' respect, his reputation as a master would undoubtedly collapse!
This would be a disaster for someone like Yu Xiaogang, who had always been eager to prove himself.
Although Yu Xiaogang's reputation in the Soul Master world was already tarnished, as long as he didn't destroy his own reputation, he could still claim to those who knew him that everything was just slander by Spirit Hall!
But if he destroyed his own reputation, that would be the end for him!
So, rather than trying to prove himself and failing, it was better to do nothing at all—if he did nothing, he couldn't go wrong!
However, this answer seemed far too obvious.
In the livestream, many people began to hesitate.
But at the Dugu Mansion, Lin Yu wasn't concerned about these issues. He directly posted the answer on the virtual screen.
[Lin Yu: The reason Yu Xiaogang refuses to teach at Notting Academy is because he is afraid of exposing his lack of true talent!]
After posting the answer, Lin Yu began waiting for responses from the livestream.
When the audience saw that Lin Yu had once again been the first to answer, many forces couldn't help but frown.
Great, once again Lin Yu beat everyone to it. It looks like the first-place reward is lost!
From past experience, whenever Lin Yu answered a question, he never missed. This time would be no different.
The best reward in this Q&A was undoubtedly the random martial arts technique, and it was almost guaranteed to go to Lin Yu, which made countless forces feel frustrated.
But with the first prize lost, there was still the second prize. They couldn't delay any longer.
So, after Lin Yu answered the question, the virtual screen quickly flashed with more answers.
[Spirit Hall - Xie Ao: The reason Yu Xiaogang refuses to teach at Notting Academy is because he is afraid of exposing his lack of true talent and being ridiculed!]
[Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School - Wang Xuan: The reason Yu Xiaogang refuses to teach even one class at Notting Academy is because he is afraid of exposing his inability to be a true master!]
[Xing Luo Empire - Lin Kong: The reason Yu Xiaogang refuses to teach at Notting Academy is because he is afraid of exposing that he is not a true master.]
...
As the answers quickly flashed across the virtual screen, the livestream soon responded to Lin Yu's answer.
"Ding! This answer is not completely correct. Please provide a more complete answer!"
With the system's cold voice ringing in his mind, Lin Yu froze for a moment.
What! His answer wasn't entirely correct?
But since the system said his answer wasn't fully correct, Lin Yu couldn't help but keep thinking, trying to figure out what else could be the reason Yu Xiaogang refused to teach at Notting Academy.
After much thought, Lin Yu found a possible answer: Yu Xiaogang looked down on the students of Notting Academy, which is why he refused to teach even a single class.
Although his previous reasoning wasn't wrong, and Yu Xiaogang's refusal to teach was indeed because he feared exposing his lack of real talent, there was another issue.
Yu Xiaogang had previously used the excuse of being too busy with soul weapon theory research. So, Yu Xiaogang could have simply not taught in-depth, but instead offered occasional lectures about obscure knowledge from the Spirit Hall.
For instance, he could have introduced rare soul beasts and related knowledge that most teachers wouldn't know, just to show off.
As long as he didn't teach practical skills and only lectured on theory, he wouldn't have to expose his lack of true talent as a soul weapon theory master. In fact, he could use his stolen knowledge from the Spirit Hall to gain the respect of Notting Academy's faculty and students.
