Chapter 51 Lu Ming Humiliates Yu Xiaogang! Coward, Trash! Fake Master!
Lu Ming applied slight pressure with his fingertips.
"Click".
Tang San felt a tremendous force coming from the hammer, and his tiger's mouth instantly split open, bleeding profusely. He could no longer hold the Clear Sky Hammer.
Lu Ming seized the hammer and swung it backhand.
"Bang!"
The hammerhead was firmly imprinted on Tang San's chest.
Tang San let out a muffled groan, his body flying backward and crashing to the ground. He struggled a few times, but could no longer get up.
Thus, the Shrek Seven Devils were completely wiped out.
The entire training ground was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Everyone seemed to be petrified, staring blankly at the solitary figure standing on the arena.
The confidence and composure on Yu Xiaogang's face had vanished, replaced by a look of dejection and bewilderment.
His theories... his monsters... were so utterly crushed by one person?
Flander's mouth was agape enough to fit a soul beast egg, and the expression on his face was incredibly interesting.
"My disciple... is so strong!"
Liu Erlong's beautiful eyes sparkled with excitement, her heart filled with unparalleled pride and joy.
After a brief silence, the members of the Blue Tyrant team were the first to react.
We won!
"We won!!"
"Long live Captain Lu Ming!"
A deafening cheer resounded throughout the entire Blue Tyrant Academy.
With a casual wave of his hand, Lu Ming caused the Blue Silver Grass vines binding Zhu Zhuqing to quietly dissipate.
He stepped off the stage and walked straight to the Shrek Academy members, his expression indifferent.
"As agreed, you lost. The spots for the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament are ours."
His voice wasn't loud, but it struck like a heavy hammer, hitting the hearts of everyone at Shrek Academy hard.
The Shrek members turned pale.
Without a spot in the competition, wouldn't all their hard work over the past few years become a joke?
Just then, Yu Xiaogang forced himself to calm down, pushed up his glasses, and shamelessly spoke up.
"Lu Ming, you are indeed very strong. I admit that I underestimated you before."
"However, the Soul Master Competition is a team competition after all. No matter how strong an individual is, they still need excellent teammates. I suggest that you join our Shrek team. That way, our team will be the strongest."
Upon hearing this, Liu Erlong frowned and said:
"Xiao Gang, if you let Lu Ming be the captain of your Shrek team, I can consider it."
"No."
Yu Xiaogang shook his head, his tone calm but full of stubbornness.
"Not the captain, he's a substitute."
"What?!" Liu Erlong's voice changed.
Yu Xiaogang seemed oblivious to her expression and continued explaining to himself:
"We, the Shrek Seven Devils, have worked together for many years and have developed a perfect understanding with each other."
Although Lu Ming is an outstanding individual player, adding him prematurely would disrupt the existing team chemistry. Therefore, keeping him as a substitute and bringing him on in crucial moments is the best option.
Lu Ming almost laughed out of anger after hearing this.
He looked at the serious-looking "theoretical master" in front of him as if he were looking at an idiot.
"Yu Xiaogang, is there something wrong with your head?"
"You're saying your Shrek team works together perfectly?"
"What's the use of your perfect teamwork? I can take on all seven of you by myself."
"puff..."
On the Blue Tyrant Academy side, someone couldn't help but laugh out loud.
Yu Xiaogang's face instantly turned a deep purplish-red, and the faces of the Shrek members also burned with shame and indignation.
Lu Ming was too lazy to pay attention to this idiot anymore. His gaze turned to Zhu Zhuqing, who was blushing and still in a state of shame and shock.
"Zhu Zhuqing, right? You're pretty fast. How about joining our Blue Tyrant team?"
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone's attention turned to Zhu Zhuqing.
Zhu Zhuqing's delicate body trembled, and she raised her head to look at Lu Ming.
The red mark on her chest from the blue silver grass still throbbed faintly, bringing waves of tingling sensation.
Her mind was in complete chaos.
Zhu Zhuqing and Dai Mubai have completely broken ties, and there is no going back to the Star Luo Empire.
She needs to find a strong support, a backer who can make her stronger.
The man before me is undoubtedly the best choice.
He is powerful, mysterious, and... his martial spirit seems to have great potential for improvement.
Then look at Shrek Academy, it's dirt poor, it doesn't even have a decent school building.
I've been with Shrek Academy for almost three years, and I've only managed to raise my soul power by a few levels with great effort.
In the future, they will have to travel around looking for colleges to affiliate with, leading a nomadic life.
This is not the future she wants.
"Zhu Qing will never agree to this! Give up on that idea!" Tang San shouted, struggling.
Dai Mubai's eyes flashed with a fierce light: "I advise you not to have any improper thoughts about Zhu Qing!"
However, the moment they finished speaking...
Zhu Zhuqing took a deep breath, met Lu Ming's gaze, and nodded gently.
"I...I do."
The entire venue fell into a deathly silence once again.
Everyone at Shrek was stunned.
Dai Mubai's expression froze instantly.
Zhu Zhuqing ignored them and turned to look at her best friend Ning Rongrong, her eyes filled with anticipation.
"Rongrong, what about you?"
Ning Rongrong bit her lip and fell into deep thought.
Shrek Academy is a terrible academy, that's a fact.
Oscar... his performance just now has proven that he can't protect himself at all.
As for Lu Ming, he can.
Only by following the strong can one become stronger. This is the survival rule of her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
After thinking for only a few seconds, Ning Rongrong made her decision.
She walked up to Lu Ming, bowed slightly, and smiled sweetly, "Captain Lu Ming, please guide me in the future."
"Rongrong! You!"
Oscar, who had just been helped up, was stunned by what he saw.
Lu Ming nodded in satisfaction.
"Very good. The Soul Master Competition is about to begin, and we can't afford to waste any time."
He turned to Zhu Zhuqing and Ning Rongrong and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to cultivate."
After saying that, he led the Blue Tyrant team and the two new members away from the training ground without looking back.
Only Shrek and his group were left behind, like abandoned stray dogs, bewildered in the wind, their faces filled with humiliation, anger, and resentment.
...
Inside the advanced mimicry training ground of Blue Tyrant Academy.
This place simulates the environment of the Star Dou Great Forest, where the concentration of soul power far exceeds that of the outside world.
Lu Ming led everyone to the center of the field.
"Captain Lu Ming..."
Zhu Zhuqing walked to Lu Ming's side, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "How... should we cultivate next?"
She looked at Lu Ming's profile, her heart filled with curiosity.
How exactly did this man cultivate his skills? Why is he so powerful compared to his peers?
Ning Rongrong, on the other hand, pursed her lips, found a place to sit down by herself, and began to meditate.
Although she joined the Blue Tyrant team, she still felt somewhat disdainful.
No matter how strong Lu Ming is, he's still just a peer. Does he really know how to teach people to cultivate?
She didn't believe it.
