Chapter 273: 292. If We Lose, I'll Give You the Captain Position
"Little San, where exactly did you go? You really made your teacher worry." Unlike the others, Yu Xiaogang seemed to sense something as he came forward, just like he had a telepathic connection, grabbed Tang San's hand, and started asking after his well-being with concern.
Tang San shook off Yu Xiaogang's hand with a dark face and said: "I already had Dai Mubai and the others submit a leave report. You don't need to worry about my family matters."
"Family matters?" Yu Xiaogang was stunned, then he reacted. His obedient disciple had turned black and short, just like a rural black soil pig. He said shocked: "Little San, how did you become like this?"
"Just got a bit tanned." Tang San said evasively.
It took a long time before Tang San brushed off the questions from Yu Xiaogang, Flender, Liu Erlong, and the others. After arriving at the Shrek base, Tang San saw a face he didn't want to see—a detestable one, Yu Tianheng.
"Yo yo yo, darkened me Ah San!" Yu Tianheng walked up to Tang San with an extremely exaggerated tone, a face full of schadenfreude as he reached out, placed his hand on Tang San's head, and shifted it to his own collarbone level: "How did you become so short, so black, and so ugly~"
Tang San didn't care much about his looks. Though in his previous life, when he awakened the Blue Silver Emperor, he was shockingly handsome, with countless secret admirers on the Douluo Continent and in the God Realm, did he become arrogant? It was just being a bit handsome. What's so great about being handsome?
However, Tang San felt a strange gaze. He followed the gaze and saw Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu curiously sizing him up behind Yu Tianheng. Tang San didn't care about Ning Rongrong, but Xiao Wu's weird gaze pierced his heart deeply.
"Yu Tianheng, say what you have to say quickly. If nothing, get out of the way. I don't want to see you." Tang San said angrily.
Dai Mubai behind Tang San shouted at Yu Tianheng: "Didn't you hear? Yu Tianheng, our Ah San says speak quickly if you have something, fart quickly if you have to fart, and roll if no fart, got it?"
"Ah San, actually, I don't have anything else. After all, you're the captain. Now that you're back, I have to report the results of the first four days to you, right?" Yu Tianheng said smugly, taking out the previous match reports for Tang San to see: "In the four days you were away, I led Shrek Academy to three consecutive victories (the Canghui Academy bye doesn't count). Every time, it was the crucial role played by my and Xiao Wu's martial soul fusion technique~"
Tang San: "#@#￥%#￥."
"For the sake of Shrek Academy's championship plan, how about this? For the remaining matches, let me, Xiao Wu, and little brother Er Ming take the lead. You watch from below, learn well. Brother Tianheng will take you to the finals and win the championship. When we meet the Spark Academy team, Brother Tianheng will also avenge you."
Yu Tianheng's words reminded Tang San of the events in Shi Nian's illusion. All the tragedies in his life stemmed from this soul master tournament. Because he was too permissive with Yu Tianheng and Xiao Wu's martial soul fusion, it led to Xiao Wu ultimately falling in love with Yu Tianheng. Such a thing, Tang San absolutely could not allow to happen.
"You dream on. I am the captain. Tomorrow's lineup will be arranged by me." Tang San said to Yu Tianheng with red eyes: "I absolutely will not let you take the stage again, absolutely not—"
Yu Tianheng let out a light laugh and said: "Sure, after all, you're the captain. But as captain, you have to be responsible for what you say. If I can't take the stage and Shrek loses the match, you'll have to take responsibility!"
"Don't worry, I can take responsibility." Tang San said huffily.
After saying that, he turned and walked away, with the Shrek Trio following closely behind Tang San.
After walking far, Tang San asked Dai Mubai: "What is our Shrek Academy's opponent tomorrow?" If it was an ordinary team, Tang San was confident he could fight a beautiful match and reverse Xiao Wu's bad impression of him.
"Ah San, our opponent tomorrow is the Windfire Team." Dai Mubai said with a troubled face.
"Windfire Team?" Tang San didn't react at first.
"Ah San, it's the team combined from Godwind Academy and Blazing Fire Academy." Ma Hongjun said.
"This..." Tang San was a bit flustered. This opponent was tricky.
"What's their current strength?" Tang San asked.
"Currently, only the ones from Blazing Fire Academy have appeared. Their strength is about the same as in the previous life." Oscar said.
"If that's the case, we can still defeat the opponent. But tomorrow, we'll need to go all out." Tang San said, looking at the Shrek Trio.
Dai Mubai patted his chest and said: "Ah San, I listen to you. We'll fight however you say."
"Me too." Ma Hongjun and Oscar said simultaneously.
"You all, thank you everyone." Tang San said moved.
Because Yu Tianheng and Er Ming didn't cause trouble, Tang San naturally took over the captain position. Then Tang San looked around and said: "Tomorrow, it will be me, Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Tai Long on stage. Do you have any objections?"
Yu Tianheng crossed his arms and said: "We have no objections, Captain."
Er Ming said: "But let me say this first, Captain. If we lose tomorrow, what will you do?"
Yu Tianheng said cheerfully: "If our captain loses tomorrow, he will definitely shamelessly cling to the captain position."
Tang San said angrily: "If I lose tomorrow, I won't be captain anymore. Yu Tianheng, I'll give it to you!"
Yu Tianheng's eyes lit up, and he said: "Good, then as you said."
After making this vow, Tang San immediately reacted. He had fallen for Yu Tianheng's goading method. After losing the captain position, in the remaining matches, that dog Yu Tianheng would definitely arrange for him and Xiao Wu to take the stage, using repeated martial soul fusion techniques to steal Xiao Wu's heart. Obtaining Xiao Wu meant obtaining the Asura God position, obtaining everything from his previous life. How could Tang San tolerate that!
But the vow was already made, and he couldn't go back on it. So no matter what, tomorrow they could only win, not lose.
Fortunately, based on Tang San's judgment, this was just a round-robin match. The Windfire Team probably wouldn't expose too much strength, so tomorrow's match, the Windfire Team likely wouldn't be at full strength.
If that was the case, tomorrow he could fight a beautiful big victory.
The next day, at the match site, it was Shrek's turn to face the Windfire Academy.
Tang San looked at his companions beside him. Except for Zhu Zhuqing, everyone else was already there, which couldn't help but make Tang San reminisce about the past.
