Titan stood with his arms crossed, his eyes wide and fierce like copper bells, glaring at the crowd. "Hurry up and bring out that Gu Feng from your academy! Today, I'm here to settle the score with him alone. This has nothing to do with the rest of you, so don't meddle!"
Tailong, standing beside him, tried to dissuade him. "Grandfather, please just go back! If you cause a scene here, how am I supposed to hold my head up in Heavenly Dou City in the future?"
Hearing this, Titan flew into a rage. He kicked Tailong hard on the backside, sending him stumbling forward, and roared, "You useless good-for-nothing! How could I have such a spineless grandson like you?"
Tailong's face turned bright red, and he hung his head even lower, wishing he could disappear into the ground.
It was true—he had been the one to provoke the conflict, but not only had he failed to gain any advantage, he had been thoroughly beaten. It was indeed humiliating to talk about.
Knowing he was in the wrong, Tailong obediently shut his mouth and didn't dare to make another sound.
Titan let out a heavy snort as he looked at his grandson's cowardly demeanor.
The thought of his grandson not only losing a fight over a woman but also getting beaten to a pulp made him seethe with anger.
What infuriated him even more was that his son had gone to defend him, only to return battered and humiliated. This was an absolute disgrace!
If things continued like this, before their master Tang Hao returned, the Power Clan would be seen as a soft target, something anyone could trample on.
This was not what Titan wanted to see.
In order to help their master in the future, to restore their master's glory, and to revive the Power Clan's reputation, to set an example for the clan, and to give a warning to those who dared to provoke them—today, no matter what, Titan had to reclaim their dignity. At the very least, he had to cripple that Gu Feng to vent his hatred!
At that moment, the dean of Heavenly Dou Royal Academy quickly stepped forward, clasping his fists in a respectful yet authoritative manner. "Esteemed elder, may I ask what business you have with our student Gu Feng? However, it's not quite appropriate for you to cause such a commotion at our Heavenly Dou Royal Academy, is it? If word gets out, it won't reflect well on your reputation."
Titan snorted disdainfully through his nostrils, his face full of impatience. "Stop beating around the bush with me! If you have something to say, say it directly. I don't have time to waste on your nonsense. I'm not falling for your tricks!"
This was the first time the dean had encountered such a rude and unreasonable powerhouse, one who didn't even show the slightest respect for Heavenly Dou Royal Academy. A flash of disgust flickered in his eyes.
But he suppressed his anger and said, "Elder, aren't you concerned about our academy's Education Committee? Their strength—"
Before he could finish, Titan couldn't help but burst into laughter, his booming voice making the ears of those around him ring. "The Education Committee? Are you talking about that old man Meng Shenji? Hahaha! He's not enough to intimidate me. I'm not afraid of him!"
The dean was truly infuriated. In all his years, he had never encountered someone so unreasonable. Trembling with anger, he clenched his teeth and demanded, "Senior, must you really rely on your superior strength to bully the weak? If this gets out, won't it make you a laughingstock in the Soul Master World?"
Titan, however, was unfazed. A cold smile hung on his lips as he mocked, "If you have the ability, you can try to bully me too! Unfortunately, you don't have the capability! Stop preaching to me!"
The dean's face turned livid with rage. His hands clenched into tight fists, his nails digging deep into his palms. "You... you are utterly disgraceful!"
Titan couldn't be bothered to waste words on him. With a sudden wave of his hand, a terrifying surge of Soul Power erupted, like a raging tidal wave, directly sending the dean flying several meters away, where he crashed heavily to the ground. "Get out of my way! I don't have time to waste on your nonsense!"
Fortunately, the dean himself was a Soul Sage, so while the impact was humiliating, it didn't cause any serious harm.
Gritting his teeth, he struggled to get up from the ground, his hair disheveled, his face filled with resentment and fury. He spat through clenched teeth, "You've gone too far, old man! Even if it costs me my life, I won't let you harm my students!"
As he spoke, the dean's Soul Power surged around him, and he raised his hand, ready to unleash his Spirit Body, prepared to fight Titan to the death.
As a teacher, if he couldn't even protect his own students, how could he live up to the title of "Teacher"?
At this critical moment, a clear and loud voice suddenly rang out, "Wait!"
Everyone turned to look and saw Gu Feng calmly walking through the crowd, striding up to the front.
Seeing Gu Feng, the dean was both shocked and angry. He quickly said, "Gu Feng, why are you here? Didn't I tell someone to warn you not to come out? Why don't you ever listen!"
Gu Feng remained calm, raising his hand to signal the dean to stay calm.
Then, Gu Feng looked directly at Titan, his face showing no fear, even with a faint mocking smile on his lips. He said, "I am Gu Feng, the one you're looking for."
Titan scrutinized the young man before him, secretly surprised. Despite his young age, Gu Feng was remarkably composed in the face of Titan's presence.
No wonder he had defeated his grandson.
However, surprise aside, Titan's anger was undiminished. He snorted coldly, "Hmph, you've got some guts, kid! You dared to hit my grandson and even had someone injure my son. If I don't teach you a lesson today, how can I continue to stand in the Soul Master World?"
As he spoke, Titan's Soul Power surged around him, and eight Soul Rings instantly materialized. A terrifying aura spread out, and the surrounding air seemed to distort under the pressure.
However, before Titan's Soul Power could fully expand, it collided with an invisible wall.
A withered, skeletal hand appeared out of nowhere and, with a simple wave, effortlessly blocked the seemingly unstoppable Soul Power.
The overwhelming pressure that had filled the sky dissipated in an instant, as if it had never existed.
Immediately, a strange ripple appeared in the space before Gu Feng, as if a stone had been thrown into a calm lake, sending out concentric circles that spread outward.
The ripple continued to expand, and the space seemed to tear apart, emitting a faint "sizzling" sound.
In the blink of an eye, a tall and upright figure slowly stepped out from the distorted space.
"Old monkey, have you grown tired of living?"
Gu Rong's voice was low and hoarse, each word seemingly squeezed out from between his teeth, carrying boundless anger: "You dare lay a hand on my grandson?"
