Time passed, second by second.
Liu Erlong stayed by Yu Xiaogang's side, never leaving the front of the door.
Seeing that Tang San still hadn't come out.
Yu Xiaogang was terrified that his disciple would do something rash or that some accident might occur.
So, he prepared to go inside to offer some guidance.
But just as he was about to knock.
With a 'creak'.
The room door opened.
Tang San dragged his exhausted body out from within.
"Teacher, Mistress, why are you here?" Tang San was a bit flustered.
By now, he had figured things out.
As long as he switched his cultivation to the Clear Sky Hammer, his strength would receive a massive boost in the short term.
When that time came, no matter what team it was, he wouldn't need to worry.
Even if he encountered that guy named Jin Mian again in the Promotion Matches.
He would be able to defeat him.
However, he had to keep this matter from his teacher, Yu Xiaogang, for the time being.
But who would have thought?
He ran into him right as he stepped out.
This made him feel instinctively guilty.
Afraid that in a moment of carelessness, he might mention switching to the Clear Sky Hammer.
And disappoint his teacher.
To this.
Yu Xiaogang expressed: I'm thinking the same thing.
"Little San!"
Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang's expressions softened significantly.
"Little San, are you... alright?" Yu Xiaogang stepped forward and asked with concern.
Tang San was currently everything he relied on.
Whether his theories could become famous throughout the Spirit Master's world!
The key lay with this disciple.
So no matter what, he couldn't let anything happen to Tang San.
After all, trying to find another simple-minded, easily fooled, and obedient twin spirits genius to act as a guinea pig...
...was basically as difficult as climbing to the heavens.
Tang San shook his head. "Don't worry, Teacher, I'm fine now."
"It was just a few match losses, that's all."
"How can everything in life go smoothly? There must be setbacks on the road to growth."
"This is a path one must take to become a powerhouse!"
After hearing Tang San's words.
A gratified expression appeared on Yu Xiaogang's face.
His heart was full of pride.
As expected of the disciple he had meticulously cultivated.
This level of awareness.
There weren't many like it in the entire continent.
Little did he know.
While Tang San was saying these things.
His tone was flippant, and his eyes were darting around.
He looked completely guilty.
It was obvious these words were just Tang San humoring Yu Xiaogang.
But Yu Xiaogang was currently in high Martial Souls.
He didn't notice Tang San's expression at all.
Liu Erlong, seeing Tang San was fine, told him about how Yu Xiaogang and Xiao Wu had been keeping watch here.
Hearing that his teacher and Xiao Wu...
...had barely closed their eyes for three days for his sake.
A sense of shame welled up in his heart.
With a 'thud'.
He knelt on the ground.
"I'm sorry, Teacher, for making you worry." Tang San buried his head deep.
Yu Xiaogang waved his hand dismissively.
"It's fine. As long as you've figured things out, it doesn't matter if I'm a bit tired."
Liu Erlong interjected, "Alright, I'm taking Xiaogang back to rest. You go see Xiao Wu."
"Xiao Wu is a good girl; don't let her down."
"Fearing something happened to you, the girl has been crouching by your door keeping watch."
"When there's a chance, I definitely want to take her as my goddaughter."
Because the original plot had changed.
Consequently, Liu Erlong had not yet taken Xiao Wu as her goddaughter.
Tang San nodded. "I understand, Mistress. I'll go find Xiao Wu right now."
Immediately, Tang San left with quick steps.
Liu Erlong then took Yu Xiaogang back to rest... Four days later.
As the various academy teams relieved their stress.
The Continental Elite Spirit Master Competition's Promotion Matches officially kicked off.
