Yu Xiaogang, dragging his stiff body, shuffled to the wardrobe step by step.
His left arm was empty, and his remaining right hand trembled slightly as he fumbled in the pocket of an old robe.
"It should…be here…"
He muttered softly, his fingertips finally touching the familiar wooden box.
But before he could take it out, Flender impatiently snatched it away!
"What are you dawdling for? Let me see!"
Flender opened the wooden box, and his face instantly darkened.
The box was empty!
"Yu Xiaogang!" Flender gritted his teeth, "Are you playing with me? Where are the gold coins?!"
Yu Xiaogang was stunned, quickly snatched the box back, and looked down.
There was nothing inside the wooden box.
"This…this is impossible!" His voice suddenly rose, his fingers gripping the edge of the wooden box tightly, "Where's my card?! Where are my one hundred thousand gold coins?!"
The next second, his chest heaved violently, his face flushed, and he suddenly spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.
Blood spattered on the wooden box, Yu Xiaogang's vision went black, and he fell straight backward.
Flender clumsily caught him, patting his face while muttering to himself:
"One hundred thousand gold coins… Where did this guy get so much money?!"
He stared at Yu Xiaogang's pale face, suddenly feeling that this matter was probably not that simple.
It seemed Yu Xiaogang really did have one hundred thousand gold coins; after all, this guy was from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and his father was the Sect Master, who could easily give him tens of thousands of gold coins.
This meant someone must have taken it.
He immediately patted Yu Xiaogang's cheek: "Wake up, wake up."
…
"What do you think we were called here for in such a hurry?" Ma Hongjun asked in a low voice.
"It might be related to Dean Yu Ze, since he's dead after all," Dai Mubai said, looking around.
Tang San sighed upon hearing this. Fortunately, only he and a few teachers knew about this matter, and they wouldn't betray them. Otherwise, the Dean, Vice-Dean, and his own teacher would be doomed.
"Little San, what are you thinking about?" Xiao Wu had been in an excellent mood recently. Little San, from who knows where, gave her a full ten thousand gold coins, and she had purchased one hundred Stealth Pills at once, which was enough for her to use for a long time.
Moreover, as long as Yu Luomian and the other two left Thunder Academy, she wouldn't need to be so cautious and take Stealth Pills anymore.
Even when she slept now, she had to take the pill; otherwise, if she was discovered, she would truly become spicy rabbit head.
"Hmm…nothing, I'm just thinking about what Yu Luomian and the others are going to do today."
"Could it be about that previous incident?" Xiao Wu asked.
"Probably not. After all, that kind of thing is too embarrassing. They must want to investigate it themselves. Even if they can't find anything, they can only suffer in silence. It's impossible for them to make such a big fuss, as that would be utterly humiliating." Tang San shook his head.
"Then what do you think it is, Little San?" Oscar asked.
Beside Oscar, Ning Youyou was holding his arm.
During this time, Ning Youyou, relying on the seductive skills she learned from Zhu Linlin, directly won over Oscar.
She was even now training Oscar.
Oscar was also slowly becoming a T0-tier simp.
It could only be said that Ning Youyou was quite resourceful.
As for Zhu Linlin and Dai Mubai, things were still the same as before; they would play if they could, and if not, they would play again later.
Everyone soon arrived at Thunder Academy's plaza. Here, it wasn't just the Shrek Academy group, but also students and teachers from Thunder Academy.
Most of the students who came were Spirit Elders and above Spirit Masters; the rest did not come.
Seeing this situation, Tang San understood clearly. It was highly likely for the upcoming match between the Five Element Academies and Tian Dou Royal Academy after some time.
Yu Luomian and the two Elders slowly ascended to the high platform.
Everyone immediately stopped their discussions.
Yu Luomian nodded in satisfaction.
"Teachers and students of Thunder Academy, in twenty days, our Thunder Academy will be participating in a practice match for the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament with Blazing Sun, Divine Wind, Heaven Water, Elephant Armor, and Tian Dou Royal Academy.
Although it's just a practice match, it is very important for our Thunder Academy. Among the six academies, our Thunder Academy needs to secure at least third place and strive for first."
"Good!!!"
Everyone applauded.
Tang San's mouth twitched. So, this is how your Thunder Academy flatters.
Yu Luomian pressed his hands down slightly.
Everyone immediately stopped.
"Our Thunder Academy is no longer just an academy with lightning-attributed Spirits; we also have many other students."
Everyone looked at the Shrek group; apart from them, everyone else still had lightning-attributed Spirits.
"Tsk… Do they even have the face to come?"
"Who knows? If it weren't for them, perhaps the Dean wouldn't have died."
"A bunch of jinxes."
"Alright, stop talking." Yu Tianheng shouted angrily.
After all, Shrek Academy was invited by him. If they were jinxes, then he would certainly not be able to escape responsibility.
Even if nothing major happened, it would definitely make the selection for the future Sect Master more difficult.
After all, in this generation, not only was Yu Tianheng's talent very high, but there was also Jade Heavenheart.
And there was only one Sect Master, so there must be a winner between Yu Tianheng and Jade Heavenheart.
The Shrek Academy members' expressions were a bit grim, but there was nothing they could do. It was true that Dean Yu Ze died after they arrived, so where could they go to reason?
Yu Luomian ignored the discussions below and continued.
"And our Thunder Academy needs seven main team members and seven substitute members. Moreover, if you become one of the fourteen people mentioned this time, you will not only be team members for this match but also for the Soul Master Competition."
As soon as these words came out, everyone's breathing quickened.
The Soul Master Competition and this practice match were completely different levels of competition.
The Soul Master Competition was a continent-wide competition. If they could win the championship, they would be the strongest academy on the entire continent.
"Dean, how do we select the fourteen people?!" Someone could no longer hold back and asked.
"Yes, Dean, let's start quickly, my hands are already itching."
"Dean, let's begin."
Seeing everyone so enthusiastic, Yu Luomian silently gave himself a thumbs up. He was indeed brilliant; only in this way could he make them unleash unprecedented power.
After all, this was an academy-wide selection; as long as one's strength was sufficient, they could participate!
"Haha, I know everyone is very anxious, but listen to me.
Our selection this time is very simple. Later, we will set up fourteen arenas in the plaza. If you want to become a team member, just get on an arena, and as long as you can defend it, you will be a team member."
It had to be said that Yu Luomian's method was simple and crude.
