Chapter 8 - Chapter 8: A Start Even Worse Than Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang

White World, Spirit Hall.

"Phew, finally switching the broadcast subject. This heavenly curtain is truly detestable, and so is that Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang. Does he even deserve the name Yu Xiaogang?"

Bibi Dong pointed at the heavenly curtain indignantly; she had been in this state for a long time.

In her eyes, her husband Yu Xiaogang was the most upright and indomitable man in this world. Facing any danger or predicament, he would never retreat cowardly but would always choose to face the challenge head-on.

But the Yu Xiaogang in the heavenly curtain actually chose to feign fainting during his Martial Soul Awakening. Such an act was simply a smear on her husband's reputation.

"Humph, the world is truly full of wonders. If not for the heavenly curtain, I would never have imagined this kid would be such a coward in a parallel world."

Not far away, Gold Crocodile Douluo snorted coldly, his face filled with an expression of disdain.

Beside him, Qian Daoliu nodded in agreement.

He had also had his eyes opened. Ever since Yu Xiaogang appeared before him, he had witnessed what a true favored son of heaven was like.

Compared to Yu Xiaogang, whether it was himself or those Geniuses recorded by the Spirit Hall, they were all overshadowed to the point of being buried in the ground.

Even the former ancestor of the Qian family, the Angel God who founded the Spirit Hall, was probably just like Yu Xiaogang in Qian Daoliu's heart.

"Let's just treat the heavenly curtain as a collection of strange tales. The Yu Xiaogang over there is far too inferior."

Shaking his head, Qian Daoliu commented.

"It really is... hard to describe in a few words."

And if one were to ask who among everyone present was the calmest, it would likely be Dragon God Douluo Yu Xiaogang himself.

Looking at Yu Xiaogang's performance in the heavenly curtain, he understood that if he hadn't transmigrated to this world and replaced Yu Xiaogang, then this was what should have originally happened.

After some thought, Yu Xiaogang ultimately shook his head.

No matter how pathetic the Yu Xiaogang over there was, it wouldn't affect him. He would just treat this heavenly curtain as a story.

And if one were to ask who was most dissatisfied with Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang's performance, it was undoubtedly Yu Xiaogang's father, Yu Yuanzhen.

Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.

"I don't acknowledge it! That is absolutely not my son! parallel world or whatever, I don't accept it!"

Yu Yuanzhen repeatedly slammed the table, emotionally distancing himself from the Yu Xiaogang in the heavenly curtain.

He simply couldn't accept that his son would be like that in a parallel world. Xiaogang was the greatest pride of his life, and he would not allow anyone to smear Xiaogang's reputation.

Seeing their Sect Master's agitated state, the Elders' expressions were somewhat helpless.

"Sect Master, even if you don't acknowledge it, it's still..."

"Shut up! I said it's not, so it's not! From now on, that fellow on the heavenly curtain shall be called Yu Xiaoxiao. No one is allowed to call him Yu Xiaogang anymore!"

Yu Yuanzhen's eyes widened, with an expression that said he would make anyone who disagreed suffer.

Seeing this, the Elders could only shut their mouths.

However, they could understand why Yu Yuanzhen was acting this way.

In the entire Douluo Continent, anyone who knew Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen knew that the thing he was most proud of in his life was having a son like Yu Xiaogang.

In daily life, at venues where various forces interacted, if one wanted to curry favor with Yu Yuanzhen, simply praising Yu Xiaogang profusely in front of him would make him overjoyed.

And when engaged in verbal sparring with other Titled Douluo, Yu Yuanzhen basically couldn't go three sentences without mentioning Yu Xiaogang. Yet, his opponents had no way to refute him, which was very frustrating.

Under such circumstances, how could the broadcast of a video showing Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang losing face not make him angry?

Aside from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, everyone across the White World who knew Yu Xiaogang also began to curse the Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang shown on the heavenly curtain.

Basically, no one was willing to admit that Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang and the Yu Xiaogang they knew were the same person.

In such an atmosphere, the video regarding Dragon God Douluo Yu Xiaogang finally began to play.

[A certain courtyard in the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.]

["Waa!"]

[Accompanied by a cry, a newborn baby arrived on the Douluo Continent. His father, Yu Yuanzhen, with an excited heart, named him Yu Xiaogang.]

It was the exact same start as Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang, which instantly shattered the previous speculation that Dragon God Douluo Yu Xiaogang's changes stemmed from his parents.

At this moment, everyone in the Black World who knew of Yu Xiaogang's situation frowned.

[As the son of the Sect's only Titled Douluo, Yu Xiaogang had been highly anticipated by everyone in the Sect since birth.]

[However, to everyone's surprise, not long after his birth, the servant responsible for taking care of Yu Xiaogang discovered something wrong with him.]

["What did you say? Xiaogang might have mental issues?"]

[In Yu Xiaogang's room, Yu Yuanzhen's eyes widened as he stared at the woman taking care of Yu Xiaogang.]

["There are indeed some issues. We've noticed these past few days that Young Master Xiaogang's gaze is always blank and dull, not nearly as bright as other newborn children."]

["Besides that, we tried to interact with him using objects, but he rarely gives us any feedback."]

[The woman had a look of pity on her face.]

[In fact, her words were already very conservative. Saying he had mental issues was just a way to comfort Yu Yuanzhen; the real situation was likely that the child might be a simpleton.]

[A shocking start.]

Everyone had originally thought that Yu Xiaogang, who could become a Titled Douluo, was definitely a top-tier favored son of heaven.

Things like standing up in three days, walking in seven, running in ten, reading and writing in half a month, and being eloquent in a month.

But as it turned out, in the beginning, he actually might have had brain issues. Could such a person really become a Titled Douluo?

Black World, Shrek Academy.

"A simpleton can actually surpass me? I don't believe it! This heavenly curtain must have been made by my enemies to humiliate me!"

Yu Xiaogang pointed at the heavenly curtain and roared.

Other than that, he couldn't think of why he would be inferior to a simpleton.

The people nearby who had previously mocked Yu Xiaogang also looked at each other, beginning to wonder if it was true, as Yu Xiaogang said, that the heavenly curtain was something someone used to humiliate him.

Otherwise, they couldn't understand how a simpleton could achieve the rank of Titled Douluo.

White World, Spirit Hall.

Qian Daoliu, Gold Crocodile Douluo, and the others looked at the heavenly curtain, then at the Yu Xiaogang beside them, momentarily questioning their reality.

With such a start, it's a miracle you could turn things around!

"Xiaogang, you..."

Bibi Dong, who felt the most for Yu Xiaogang, already had reddened eyes. Even she didn't know about this.

"Don't be sad, it's actually a good thing."

Yu Xiaogang pulled Bibi Dong into his arms, constantly comforting her.

Looking at his younger self on the heavenly curtain, he couldn't help but feel a sense of nostalgia.

He had transmigrated here before Yu Xiaogang was even born.

After transmigrating, he, possessing memories of his past life, merged with the fetus. His spirit far exceeded that of an ordinary infant, and coupled with the influence of the mystery of the womb, he remained in a dazed and muddled state for a long time.

He could sense everything but was unable to perfectly control his own body.

However, there were benefits; his mental force far surpassed his peers, laying the foundation for his subsequent growth.
