Because during the punishment,
Yu Xiaogang's figure also appeared on the heavenly curtain.
So this time, in his anger, every word he said to Luo San Pao was clearly heard by everyone.
Seeing him like this, there was no need to say it; the onlookers naturally became furious.
"Yu Xiaogang is truly an animal."
"Who doesn't say it? It's true, the weak only draw their swords against the weaker."
"When he had a dispute with Tang Hao before, why wasn't he so tough? He could only make sarcastic remarks. Now that it's Luo San Pao, he's tough, but he's too good at judging people."
"He's practically not human."
Not to mention the onlookers were denouncing him this time.
Even Liu Erlong, who had always stood by Yu Xiaogang's side, felt it was a bit too much this time.
She quickly began to advise Yu Xiaogang repeatedly.
"That's enough, Xiaogang."
"As the old saying goes, 'forgive others when you can.' What's more, this Luo San Pao isn't even a person; it's just a Spirit with a bit of intelligence. Do you think it's worth arguing with a Spirit? Don't you agree?"
With Liu Erlong's persuasion, Yu Xiaogang also recovered from his anger.
This time, he naturally realized that his recent actions had been a bit rash.
If he said he didn't feel regret because of it, that would be a lie.
However, in front of everyone,
Being someone who cared about his reputation, he was unwilling to back down.
Although he waved his hand and retracted Luo San Pao again, he still spoke with a cold and arrogant demeanor.
"It's precisely because I've indulged it too much in the past that it has become so anxious. Although Luo San Pao has intelligence, it is essentially just my subordinate Spirit.
As a subordinate Spirit, it dared to harbor disloyalty. My merely reprimanding it is already merciful. If it were anyone else, they would definitely inflict cruel torture; that's the truth."
"Alright, alright, you're right. Calm down. It's not worth getting angry over Luo San Pao's matter…"
Liu Erlong listened, nodding repeatedly beside him, comforting him while speaking, also trying to persuade Yu Xiaogang.
She hoped he would temper his mood later and not get into conflicts with outsiders again,
Especially with Tang Hao.
After all, ever since Bibi Dong received the 100,000-year Spirit Bone through the lucky audience reward,
The originally fragile balance between the two sides had already begun to waver.
It was already incredibly difficult for them to escape from under Spirit Hall's grasp.
If internal strife also occurred at this critical juncture, then they would truly have no place to be buried.
Yu Xiaogang was not a fool; he naturally knew this.
So this time, after hearing Liu Erlong say this again, he uncharacteristically did not refute anything.
He then looked up, instead shifting his attention back to the heavenly curtain above.
This reaction, besides his curiosity about the future experiences of Yu Chen and Ah Yin in the parallel World,
He also wanted to see which Spirit Beast Bibi Dong's 100,000-year Spirit Bone came from.
After all, as the old saying goes, 'know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated.'
This information was still very important to them.
And just as they were urgently discussing their plan,
Above the heavenly curtain,
Qian Xunji had already learned that Ah Yin was a 100,000-year Spirit Beast, and this news had also reached Blue Tyrant Academy.
And this news, needless to say, was also anonymously spread by Tang Hao.
After all, his main goal was not truly to make Qian Xunji kill Ah Yin,
But rather to force Ah Yin to leave Yu Chen due to pressure.
So Tang Hao also did not wish to see Ah Yin's death.
"Damn Tang Hao, I never thought he would be such a person, to use such despicable methods!"
No one was foolish in this era; upon seeing this news spread, everyone immediately knew who the disseminator was.
And precisely because she knew the true identity of the mastermind, Ah Yin felt even more heartbroken and vexed at this moment.
Since entering human society, this was the first time she truly understood the meaning of the phrase "woman's benevolence."
She also realized that true goodness and beauty do not apply to everyone.
However, compared to Ah Yin's current distress and regret,
Yu Chen remained calm from beginning to end.
Not only did he not panic because of this, he even took the initiative to comfort her, saying,
"Alright, Ah Yin, don't be sad about this. What's done is done; there's no point in saying more. Instead of regretting what happened before, it's better to think carefully about how to deal with it."
"How to deal with it? What kind of solution can there be?"
Ah Yin's face was filled with despondency.
"Where there's a will, there's a way. We'll only know if there's a solution after we try."
Yu Chen remained composed. After saying this, he turned his head and asked Bibi Dong, who was also looking worried, behind him.
He wanted to know if there was a way to persuade Qian Xunji to abandon the pursuit of Ah Yin without resorting to force, using a gentle approach.
This was naturally the best outcome they hoped for.
How could Bibi Dong not hope for this outcome? After all, after so many days of getting along, she truly considered Ah Yin her good sister.
But thinking of her teacher's character at this moment,
No matter how much she hoped, she could only sigh helplessly and choose to answer truthfully.
"My teacher, Qian Xunji, is an extremely stubborn person. He is single-mindedly determined to break through to a higher realm. Now that he knows there's a 100,000-year Spirit Beast in Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Academy, he will absolutely not stand idly by."
"He will even bring most of Spirit Hall's forces with him this time. By then, even if we rely on Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Academy, it will be useless."
As soon as these words came out,
It was no exaggeration to say it was the straw that broke the camel's back.
Ah Yin, whose eyes still held a glimmer of hope and chance just moments ago,
After hearing this, the light in her eyes completely dimmed.
Of course, this dimming only lasted for a moment.
Ah Yin, who was gentle yet strong, had already made a decision in her heart.
She then looked up and replied with a resolute tone,
"No, Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Academy is Yu Chen Gege's painstaking effort. It is also the hope of countless common Spirit Masters."
"I cannot watch this academy be destroyed because of me."
"Don't worry, Yu Chen Gege! I'll take responsibility for what I've done.
Since this matter started because of me, I will absolutely not drag everyone down, especially Blue Tyrant Academy!
You don't have to worry about my safety either. If worst comes to worst, I'll just return to the forest again. After all, only the forest is our Spirit Beasts' home ground."
Of course, though these words were spoken lightly, by the end, her eyes couldn't help but well up with tears. Her tears then rolled down one by one like broken pearls.
It was very clear that after so many days of getting along,
She had long since come to regard Yu Chen, Bibi Dong, and everyone in Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Academy as her family.
And because of this, leaving now, for Ah Yin,
Was truly not much different from a separation of life and death.
The pain and sorrow in her heart were imaginable.
