“Du Gang, I heard you went to the Primordial Continent, and you’ve returned so soon?”
Chu Zixuan was somewhat surprised in Earth Village with a flabbergasted look on his face.
“Hm?”
Du Gang was taken aback, “How do you know?”
Chu Zixuan was clearly just at Planet Level…
And the guards of Earth Village were merely at Sector Lord level. There was no way they could find out about him.
Suddenly, he exclaimed, “You’ve reached Universe Level?”
So quickly?
He was at Planet Level when he came, and now he’s at Universe Level?
Chu Zixuan chuckled, “Someone came to take me as his apprentice…”
“Took you as an apprentice?”
Du Gang was startled and quickly asked with caution, “Who?”
Chu Zixuan said seriously, “My master is named Yao Zijie, and he’s been treating me well…”
“Ah?”
Du Gang was dumbfounded.
His brother-in-law came to take Chu Zixuan as his apprentice?
That guy… he… is here for revenge, isn’t he?!
He must have investigated beforehand, knowing that Chu Zixuan is his friend, so…
Du Gang twitched at the corner of his mouth, “Do you… do you know what I call Yao Zijie?”
Chu Zixuan was stunned, shook his head, and said, “No, what’s wrong?”
He really didn’t know. Yao Zijie just told him some things about Du Gang, but he didn’t tell him about their relationship.
Du Gang opened his mouth but didn’t know how to start. After a while, he said helplessly, “I’ve been shooting my mouth off, his sister and I are very close, I joke around… I call Yao Zijie my brother-in-law…”
Chu Zixuan fell silent.
You people at the center of the universe are so wicked…
He thought this was someone who saw potential in Du Gang and came to take him as his apprentice.
Who would have thought it was for this reason…
However, after a pause, he spoke, “Then, is my master also among the talented?”
He only knew that Yao Zijie was a Divine Spirit, and he didn’t know the details!
Du Gang nodded and said, “Ah, Yao Zijie is from the Yao family. Although he has a common background, he is the Yang God, his sister is the Yin Goddess…”
“So, he’s considered very talented in their family. In this generation, he should rank among the top thirty contestants!”
He frowned and said, “Wait, I’ll go find Yao Zijie and beat him up…”
“Don’t!”
Chu Zixuan immediately refused and shook his head, “Du Gang, I’ve already become his apprentice, performing nine kneels and three bows, one day as a master, is like a father for life…”
“Although, you’re on equal terms with him, let’s deal separately…”
He was actually quite open-minded. Du Gang was Du Gang. As an Ancient God, he had the capital to be on equal footing with Yao Zijie and others.
But he couldn’t.
Although he was friends with Du Gang, he was still just a person from a marginal universe.
If it weren’t for Du Gang, he might have died in a few tens of thousands of years.
“What’s more, my master is over twenty thousand years old, while I’m only over a hundred years old. Calling him master, I don’t lose out…”
Chu Zixuan smiled, “My master has been very kind to me, teaching me martial skills, and telling me a lot about cultivation…”
Hearing him call Yao Zijie “master” one sentence after another, Du Gang felt a toothache.
As expected from the Gentleman’s Sword Yao Zijie. He doesn’t say anything unpleasant directly but annoys the hell out of me behind my back.
Just you wait, when I get back, you’ll see!
Then, Du Gang familiarized himself with the situation on Earth.
He understood that it would take some time to improve the qualities of the entire population. However, with the current decline in death rates, the birth rate has greatly increased. According to Chu Zixuan, in two to three hundred years, a portion of the people might need to leave because there won’t be enough living space…
Du Gang nodded and said, “I need to make a signboard now, and I also need some balloons and banners. Help me get these done as soon as you can!”
“Ok!”
Chu Zixuan was still in charge of managing Earth Village. These were all minor matters and in a short while, he fulfilled Du Gang’s request.
“Penglai Academy? You’re teaching there now?”
“Teaching?”
Du Gang was taken aback and laughed, “I’m a student. I’ve only just become a Divine Spirit. Where do I have the qualifications to teach others…”
Saying it without intention, listeners took it to heart.
Chu Zixuan was filled with emotions. Even Divine Spirits were qualified to teach…
However, looking at Du Gang, he was filled with excitement.
He wanted to catch up, to see this unknown world, to see the prosperity of this world!
The Primordial Continent must surely be a vibrant and colorful place!
Soon, Du Gang collected his things and cheerfully said, “I’ll go first, and come back to see you next time!”
After speaking, he tore through space in an instant and burrowed into the void, heading towards the direction of the Primordial Continent.
He didn’t cultivate the Laws of Space, but after arriving in this universe, he naturally grasped the method to tear through space.
It was like tearing a piece of cloth, very casual.
Similarly, what he couldn’t achieve in the Primordial Continent, like flying, was as simple as eating and drinking here.
However, he finally felt a bit of suppression.
This world suppressed the powerful. Unlike the suppression on the Primordial Continent, the suppression here felt deadly…
In no time, he returned to the Primordial Continent.
“It feels so good to be standing on solid ground!”
Du Gang was very optimistic. He ran along the narrow streets, and in no time, saw the sign of Penglai College.
“Where’s Old Liu?”
No one was on the recliner, he glanced at the room at the entrance. It was also empty.
“Has the old man gone lazy? He’s not even watching the door?!”
Du Gang grumbled, didn’t really care. After all, Old Liu was a True God, he could act as he pleased.
“Let’s get to work, finish it soon and go back to class. I also need to contact others…”
Soon, Du Gang took out the signboard Chu Zixuan had someone prepare.
“Golden and dazzling, this plaque is quite imposing. Old Liu should reimburse me for it, shouldn’t he?!”
He laughed heartily, quickly picking up the plaque and prepared to replace it.
“Boom!”
However, the next second, the plaque in his hand exploded.
“Huh?”
Du Gang was startled, looking at his empty hands and the few remnants on the ground, he was somewhat stunned.
“Did Chu Zixuan scam me?”
Soon, he shook his head, “Impossible, he’s an upright person who rarely plays such tricks…”
“So, it’s because of the density difference?!”
The density in the universe was indeed different from that of the Primordial Continent. Items made over there crumbled into bits when they arrived here.
“What should I do then?”
Du Gang frowned, suddenly thinking of something. He hurriedly pulled out a banner he had prepared earlier. This time, instead of touching it with his hands, he controlled it with his divine thought.
“Whoosh, whoosh!”
“It didn’t shatter!”
Du Gang was delighted as the banner swooshed in the wind but didn’t crumble.
“Did these things turn into balloons after arriving here?”
“Nevermind, let’s try to see if I can hang it up!”
He quickly controlled it with his divine thought, lifting the banner above the gate.
“Beautiful!”
Looking at the hanging banner, Du Gang breathed a sigh of relief.
“If that’s the case, I’ll have to make another trip there…”
Not wasting a moment, he quickly gathered the rubble from the ground and hurried down the path he had come from.
In a short time, he arrived back at Earth Village.
“Why are you back so soon?”
Chu Zixuan was curious, hadn’t Du Gang just left? And he said he would visit again later, did he miss me already?
Du Gang laughed and said, “Well, can you make some more plaques…”
After considering for a while, he paused to ask, “Do you have anyone here who can make counterfeits?”
“Counterfeit?”
Chu Zixuan was startled but nodded, “Yes, I have inherited the will of the last leader, we have records of specialized talents and have also recruited quite a few into the organization…”
Du Gang was thrilled and quickly said, “Take me there quickly, I have a big use for them!”
Chu Zixuan felt a bad premonition but still led him to the relevant place.
Soon, Du Gang produced an image of a Saint Crystal.
“Can you make this?”
“Yes, rest assured War God, we will definitely make an exact replica…”
Du Gang pondered for a while then released a photo of the divine crystal, “What about this?”
“We can also make this!”
Seeing this, he was overjoyed and quickly released images of various divine artifacts he had gotten before, along with images of rune stones and sources he had seen before.
“Also, make these for me, make as many as you can, as fast as possible!”
“I don’t care about the quality, I just need it to look alike!”
Quality was useless, once arriving at the Primordial Continent it would all be for nothing, looking alike was all he needed.
Chu Zixuan instantly broke into a cold sweat, “Won’t this bring trouble to our door?!”.
From ancient times, any ruling power has always had a ruthless attitude towards counterfeiters, this could attract the attention of big shots…
Erm…
Du Gang saw Chu Zixuan’s expression and understood his meaning. He laughed and said, “Don’t worry, people from the Primordial Continent can’t reach our universe and Penglai Island wouldn’t possibly care about such matters…”
Seeing Chu Zixuan still worrying, he cheerfully said, “Rest assured, even if there is a problem, I definitely won’t rat you guys out…”
Chu Zixuan sighed, even if you don’t rat us out, wouldn’t people still be able to find us?
Forget it, let him do whatever he wants!
As for Du Gang’s status, Chu Zixuan had a rough idea and knew that Du Gang wasn’t a nobody.
Hundreds of 3D printing factories were running at full speed, producing a pile of stuff in no time.
Du Gang happily collected all the items.
Chu Zixuan said, “There are quite a few factories that can make these things, but some modifications are needed, see…”
Du Gang thought for a moment and said, “Then you leave some factories for me, make more, I’ll take them next time I come back!”
Chu Zixuan nodded and reminded, “Du Gang, you absolutely cannot use these things in our universe…”
Use them in the Primordial Continent and they may not have jurisdiction here, but using them in this universe could cause big trouble.
Du Gang naturally understood the key point, he laughed, “Rest assured, I wouldn’t even take it out here…”
“By the way, remake those plaques and also some banners…”
He was worried that they might get damaged in the wind in the next few days, so he planned to replace them as needed.
Anyway, as long as he muddled through the exchange meeting this time, it didn’t matter if all of them exploded later, he wouldn’t be concerned.
Old Liu asked him to buy a sign without giving him any money or telling him the location, he deserved it!
Soon, the counterfeiting work here was completed. Du Gang quickly packed up everything and tore through the space once more towards the Primordial Continent.
This time, when he returned to the academy, Old Liu still hadn’t returned.
“Where did this guy go?”
Du Gang was somewhat curious, “Could it be that the old knife is still sharp, and he went to Dream Building?!”
Thinking of this, the enchanting figure of the Soul Capturing Girl couldn’t help but appear in his mind.
“Hiss!”
He instantly shivered all over.
“I can’t resist, when I have money, I must call her out!”
He quickly banished these random thoughts from his mind.
It wasn’t that he thought this was bad, but if some shameless true god who liked to peek saw it, it’d be too ridiculous.
Behind him, an invisible god that was unable to be seen by the world had a row of black lines on his face.
This brat dares to curse me, wait for it…
Soon, Du Gang had put up the sign of ‘Penglai Academy’, as well as various banners.
“Beautiful, Old Liu is probably laughing sneakily with such an ostentatious thing, right?!”
Du Gang was quite satisfied with his masterpiece, he clapped his hands to dust off the debris and put it into his internal world. Then he started heading into the academy.
He moved quickly, so not much time was wasted. It was only two or three hours later and the afternoon practical class was about to start.
Thinking of this, he quickly headed toward the Martial Training Ground.
Sure enough, his classmates were all practicing there, under the supervision of Xiang Xinjian.
Seeing him approaching, Xiang Xinjian flashed a meaningful smile, “Du Gang, good you’re here. I was just about to give the students a demonstration, but I needed a prop…”
For some reason, Du Gang felt there was something creepy about Xiang Xinjian’s smile today. He couldn’t figure out why.
Nevertheless, he approached him with a simple and honest smile on his face.
“Teacher, what kind of demonstration?”
Xiang Xinjian chortled, “Nothing much, just teaching our female classmates how to protect themselves if they encounter lewd men…”
“Our male classmates can also learn. When it comes to enemies, you don’t need to be polite…”
“Come on, come here!”
Du Gang walked over nervously. For some reason, he felt that Xiang Xinjian was acting oddly today. Without thinking, his hands instinctively covered his groin.
Pointing to his actions, Xiang Xinjian laughed, “Students, do you see? The area he’s covering is a critical spot. If you ladies encounter a lewd man, feel free to aim for that area…”
“Du Gang, rest assured, I won’t be too rough on you. Now, take your hands off…”
Shaking his head like a rattle drum, Du Gang refused.
Loosen his grip?
He’d rather die!
Seeing Du Gang’s firm stance, Xiang Xinjian chuckled, “Students, I won’t show an attack on this area. Next, I’ll show you the standard way to hit a bad person…”
“If someone hugs you from behind… come on, Du Gang, hug me from behind!”
“But, teacher, I…”
“Just go ahead and hug courageously!”
Upon hearing this, Du Gang hesitated for a moment before taking a step forward.
“Bam!”
Before he even made contact, a powerful force came at him. The next moment, he felt like he was on a roller coaster. He tumbled over and crashed onto the ground.
“Students, did you see that? If someone tries to hug you from behind, just slam them really hard!”
“Aah…”
Moaning in pain, Du Gang lamented, “Teacher, I can’t go on…”
Xiang Xinjian’s smile was indifferent as he said, “Don’t worry, I know what I’m doing. Here’s a Revival Pill to keep you alive. After we finish the practical class, I’ll personally help you heal…”
Damn!
At this time, Yu Shuiyao spoke up.
“Teacher, I have a suggestion…”
Moved by her words, Du Gang thought to himself, “Even after all that’s happened, Yu Shuiyao’s still on my side…”
“Teacher, I didn’t see clearly earlier. Could you do it again?”
Damn!
Infuriated, Du Gang turned suddenly to glare at Yu Shuiyao.
Seeing his angry face, the corners of Yu Shuiyao’s mouth turned up in delight.
That’s what you get for bullying me!
Du Gang was fuming as he looked at her taunting face.
Just wait till I get my hands on you…
“Bam!”
Another loud noise.
As soon as his thought popped into his head, Xiang Xinjian, true to his word, delivered another blow before Du Gang had a chance to get up.
“Students, did you see that? This is a complete procedure. After disorienting your enemies, don’t relax, continue your assault…”
“By the way, Yu, did you not see clearly? Then, let’s do it once more!”
“Teacher, I think I broke something…”
“Bam!” “Bam!”
Xiang Xinjian obviously didn’t care, he generously doled out two more punches.
His face was full of laughter, the gloom from before completely dispelled. His bald head, gleaming under the sunlight, was shiny and bright.
“Any students that didn’t see clearly and want to go again?”
“Me!”
Long Aoshi was the first one to jump out, excitedly saying, “Teacher, I didn’t see clearly!”
Xiang Xinjian let out a hearty laugh, “In that case, let’s demonstrate it again!”
“Bam!” “Bam!”
As Du Gang lay on the ground, he was mentally calculating the score.
Yu Shuiyao, you initiated this, I won’t let you off easily.
Long Aoshi, you sneaky guy, scheming against me at such a time, just wait till I get back at you…
Long Aotian? You contankerous brat, we are supposed to be allies and yet you dare to join them? Wait for it!
Yao Zijie, you pretentious gentleman, your bill for taking advantage of me has not been settled and yet you dare to do this…
Little Hawk King, you son of a b*tch, how dare you join the others! Wait up, I won’t forget this.
Just then, a surprising voice rang out.
Yao Zixuan voiced out calmly, “Teacher, I didn’t see clearly either. Could you do it again…”
Damn!
“Bam!” “Bam!”
With a look of utter haplessness, Du Gang gazed at Yao Zixuan’s face. It occurred to him that perhaps he should marry her for real, as he had jokingly suggested.
Torture her every day?
Whip her?
Contemplating this idea, he felt it wasn’t so bad. He could kill two birds with one stone by addressing Yao Zijie as “younger brother” every time he saw him.
Finally, almost half the class claimed they hadn’t seen the demonstration clearly. Du Gang marked all of them down for revenge later.
Finally, Xiang Xinjian, satisfied, stopped his demonstration. He laughingly said, “Class leader, you’ve worked hard. I will keep my word and give you a pill to heal your body!”
With that, he took out what appeared to be a discolored, useless-looking pill.
“Huh?”
Stunned, Du Gang backed away, “No, teacher, I feel fine. I won’t take it…”
Xiang Xinjian gave a hearty laugh, “Would your teacher harm you?”
Without another word, he flicked the pill into Du Gang’s mouth.
As soon as it entered his mouth, indeed, a burnt taste spread out.
Just as he was about to spit it out, the pill turned into pure energy and surged into his body.
“Boom!”
Suddenly, a strong healing force was felt.
At the same time, Du Gang even faintly felt that his body was being strengthened once again.
“It actually works?!”
He was stunned, not expecting this bald guy to have given him a real pill.
Xiang Xinjian chuckled and said, “Of course it works, I made it myself. However, there might be some side effects…”
“Side effects?”
Du Gang froze, then…
“Pffft~~!”
Suddenly, the scene quieted down.
Everyone stared in disbelief at Du Gang.
“He… he farted!”
Damn it!
At this moment, Du Gang, surrounded by the crowd, felt utterly desolate.
Is this social suicide?!
“Pfft~!”
At this moment, his body seemed out of control, with continuous explosive sounds.
“Whoosh!”
Du Gang instantly turned into a shadow and without looking back, fled toward the door.
That was so embarrassing.
How could he chase after Yao Zixuan like this?!
Damn!
I’ve lost all my reputation!
Baldy, we are not done yet!
With a grim face, Du Gang left as if escaping.
Just as he stepped out of the spatial portal, Old Liu’s voice came out as he was about to enter his dormitory.
“Hey, Du Gang, wait a minute!”
Du Gang halted in his tracks, without thinking, he glanced at his hanging sign.
Seeing it still intact, he breathed a sigh of relief.
Old Liu, pointing at the banner next to him, asked, “What does ‘fighting at South Mountain Nursing Home and kicking at North Sea Childcare Center’ mean?!”
Du Gang was startled, at the time, he was just enjoying himself and didn’t think much.
But…
If he can’t come up with a good reason and tears down this banner, wouldn’t it reveal his secret?
Thinking of this, he quickly conjured up an explanation, “South Mountain is an everlasting mountain on the Pangu Continent, it means indiscriminately fighting against eternity. You know, I encountered a billion-year-old elder in South Mountain…basically, it means no matter the age, we are invincible…”
“As for kicking North Sea… Pfft!”
Du Gang froze.
Old Liu froze too.
“What is this kid…?”
“Pfft!”
“Teacher, I need to go first!”
After saying this, Du Gang couldn’t hold back any longer. He quickly went through the dormitory’s spatial door without looking back.
Watching his retreating figure, Old Liu chuckled, “That kid, he must have taken Xiang Xinjian’s pill, right?!”
Hehe!
After entering the dormitory, Du Gang originally intended to carry out his relief in the dormitory.
But…
Storms often arrive unexpectedly.
Thankfully, he was skilled at stripping off his pants, so he pulled them down in time, and relieved himself at the entrance of a dormitory building.
“Phew~!”
That feels good!
It’s been a long time since he had done such a thing!
Du Gang felt extremely refreshed.
“Ever since my strength increased, I haven’t had to relieve myself like this for a long time. Unexpectedly, it’s the same as before…”
Just then, a pungent stench wafted over.
Du Gang quickly pinched his nose and glanced at the mess on the ground.
“If I use my divine thought to clean it, will it stick to it?”
Thinking about his divine thought picking up shit gave Du Gang goosebumps.
“Err, someone will clean this, right?!”
He glanced at the number on the dormitory door, “7758.” Then he noticed the weeds beside him, chuckled, “No one probably lives here, so there shouldn’t be a problem. When the janitor comes, it should be cleaned!”
After finishing his sentence, he didn’t hesitate and quickly escaped from the scene.
“That was exciting!”
Du Gang casually left the dormitory area and returned to the small courtyard where Old Liu was still lounging. The old man was humming a tune, looking quite content.
“Teacher, where were you? I didn’t see you when I returned!”
Old Liu laughed, “Nothing much, I went to the dean’s office for a chat!”
Du Gang remembered the recording stone that Old Liu had taken out earlier.
This old fella didn’t go to claim credit, did he?!
Thinking of this, he quickly brushed the thought away.
But surprisingly, Old Liu didn’t get angry. Instead, he grinned and said, “Du Gang, you did well. This time, I’ll reward you with some merits. If something comes up again, I’ll come find you!”
Some merits?
Even though it’s a bit less, a mosquito is meat even if it’s small!
After thanking him, Du Gang happily accepted, “Teacher, if there’s nothing else, I’ll leave now!”
“Go, go!”
Old Liu was in a very good mood.
Although the dean was not here, the vice-dean was very appreciative of the color and symbolism he created. He even approved him a merit of ten thousand points to fund this project.
Was this idea originally from Du Gang?
Who said that? It was clearly Old Liu who did it himself, painstakingly working on it all the while. What does it have to do with Du Gang?
“Heh heh, Xiang Xinjian has sent a good fellow over!”
He made a pure profit of 9999 merits, feeling quite pleased!
At this moment, Du Gang, who had just entered the teaching area through the space door, was also equally pleased.
“The big bald guy gave me some merits for this task, and Old Liu just gave me a little more. Two merits in total, not bad…”
“I’m almost able to afford the 100 Divine Crystals required to enter the first floor!”
Thinking of the Soul Capturing Girl made Du Gang’s heart burn with desire.
“I need to quickly save up 1000 Divine Crystals to continue our previous fate!”
Walking around cheerfully, he soon ran into a crowd of students returning from school.
“Yo, Fart King is back?!”
From a distance, Long Aoshi started to mock loudly.
Upon hearing this, Du Gang immediately turned into a flash of lightning and appeared next to him as swiftly as a thunderclap.
“Bang!”
A loud noise sounded, and Long Aoshi was slammed to the ground by Du Gang’s shoulder throw.
“What the hell are you doing? I’m going to tell the teacher that you dare to hit a classmate…”
Long Aoshi became smarter and decided not to fight back, planning to let the teacher deduct merits from Du Gang.
Du Gang laughed, saying: “Didn’t you, Long Aotian, say you didn’t get it in class and wanted me to demonstrate it again?”
“It just so happens that Long Aoshi is willing to demonstrate for you…”
As soon as he heard this, Long Aotian understood Du Gang’s intentions. Regardless of his relationship with Long Aoshi or the previous incident where he was tricked by Du Gang, both were reasons good enough to make him participate in this ruse.
“Ah, yes, I didn’t see clearly. Please show me again!”
It’s not me who is taking action, you go ahead, even if there is a penalty later, it will be on you!
At this moment, Long Aotian was very smart.
“Why the hell should I demonstrate…”
“Bang!”
Before Long Aoshi could finish, Du Gang hit him again.
He chuckled and said, “Because I am the class monitor. The teacher had said before that I am responsible for all the students. Isn’t this fulfilling my duty as class monitor?”
“Bang!”
“Bang!”
Very soon, Long Aoshi was beaten to a pulp by Du Gang and fainted.
Then, Du Gang turned his gaze to the crowd, flipped open his notebook, and Zeroed in on those who had previously tricked him.
Seeing this scene, everyone jumped in shock. Those who had previously claimed they didn’t see it clearly, immediately disappeared.
Only those who hadn’t made a fuss stayed back.
Among them, even the shameless Little Hawk King came over and whispered, “Du Gang, I heard you’re going to nab those Confucians? Count me in!!”
“Huh?”
Du Gang was taken aback, “How did you know?”
He hadn’t approached these people yet, so how…
The only people who were aware of this were Long Aotian and Old Liu.
Old Liu wouldn’t spread the info as a True God, so it must be Long Aotian who leaked this news.
“Cough cough!”
Little Hawk King laughed and said, “Don’t worry about how I know, am I in?!”
After thinking for a while, Du Gang agreed. Little Hawk King was already on his list of choices, so naturally he agreed. He nodded and said, “Fine, you’re in, but keep it a secret…”
Just then, to his surprise, Yao Zixuan also approached him.
“Du Gang, I heard you’re going to nab those Confucians, count me in too!”
“What?”
Du Gang was taken aback. “How do you know?”
He was a bit stunned. How did Yao Zixuan know?
Yao Zixuan was puzzled, “The whole class knows, of course I heard it!”
Du Gang was speechless, when Yao Zijie, Sun Wufan, the twin loli, and the coffin-carrying boy all approached him.
“Du Gang, add me too!”
Not only these, there were also many more geniuses that he had seen before but whose names he couldn’t recall.
Basically, all the students who came from the universe stood with him. The only ones left were the local students. He didn’t know whether they were too nervous to speak or they didn’t know about this.
“Damn it, this guy Long Aotian…”
That’s why he ran so fast…
And he claims to keep secrets. Damn!
This was just a few hours, and the whole class knew!
That’s what you call a big mouth!
Gossiping Aotian!
At this moment, Long Aotian was feeling apprehensive on his way back to the dorm.
“Didn’t I just help him recruit some people ahead of time?”
“Yeah, those I told are all qualified to participate…”
“I, Long Aotian, can keep a secret!”
Eventually, Du Gang gathered all the students from the universe who knew the news in his dormitory.
Almost everyone was there.
Looking at their excited eyes, Du Gang said: “Everyone, you must have all understood the situation of the Primordial Continent, right?!”
“You should know that there are people outside of the world and a sky beyond the sky. The Primordial Continent is very large. Also, we understand about Heaven, Earth, and Human rankings, right?!”
Seeing everyone nod, he smiled and said, “This is your chance to make it big!”
“What kind of force is the Holy Confucian Academy?”
“It is one of the only forty-five major forces in the world that reign supreme…”
“We have messed with their students, so you tell me, are we not going to make it big?!”
“I can’t speak for other places, but I can assure you, at least in the Southern Wilderness, your names will definitely spread!”
“Those old fogeys might not care, but all the younger generation, whether they’re genius talents or leggy hotties, they will certainly see you in a different light…”
Seeing the excitement of the crowd, Du Gang hastily said, “Come on, everyone take out your wealth from your hands and let’s see how much we have, the more we chip in, the more we all stand to earn…”
Soon after taking stock, Du Gang was overjoyed.
There were a total of 69 people present, with as little as three to four hundred Divine Crystals, and as many as over a thousand Divine Crystals.
In total, there were over fifty thousand Divine Crystals.
That’s enough!
With just the resources from these guys, he could ignite three Divine Fires!
Du Gang grinned, “Everyone, let’s collect these stakes…”
As soon as he finished speaking, “whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!”
All the things that were displayed outside were collected in an instant.
“???”
Du Gang was speechless, “This is no fun at all!”
At this moment, Long Aotian sneered, “Du Gang, you only asked us to contribute, what about your own stuff?!”
“Yes, how are we supposed to play if you don’t pitch in anything?”
One by one, they began to speak out.
At this, Du Gang snickered. He waved his hand, and a pile of shiny artifacts was released.
However, he covered these artifacts with Divine Thoughts, as if afraid that others might snatch them away.
He laughed and said, “I don’t have money? I have seventy billion, how can I be broke?!”
“You see these artifacts? You should be pretty familiar with them, they were all exchanged from you guys!”
Everyone looked and indeed, some of the artifacts were given to Du Gang earlier in exchange for good spots.
Only Yao Zixuan looked confused at a necklace that was identical to the one she wore around her neck.
Did Du Gang return the necklace I gave him earlier?
Why does he have another one?
At the time, after learning about the Ancient God and the curse from Yao Zixuan, Du Gang felt like he had hit a jackpot and it wasn’t right to take her things anymore, so he returned the necklace.
However, she didn’t say anything and decided to ask him afterwards.
Soon, Du Gang collected these shining ‘artifacts’ and chuckled, “Are my artifacts enough?”
Everyone was awestruck.
“Just now, there must have been seventy to eighty pieces, right?!”
“Yeah, combined, it might be worth ten thousand Divine Crystals…”
Du Gang coughed and said, “Since you’re not willing to leave the artifacts with me, that’s fine, we’ll bring them out when it’s time to battle…”
“Alright, that’s it for today’s meeting. Keep it confidential, don’t let Long Aoshi’s gang find out, it won’t be good if they leak the information…”
At this moment, Long Aoshi was in a dormitory with a group of local students, looking at something sneakily.
A young man with a lost look in his eyes sat in front of a foggy screen that displayed Du Gang and the others conversing remotely.
Soon, in the screen, Du Gang and the others dispersed.
The confusion in the young man’s eyes gradually disappeared, and he was soaked in sweat.
“Phew, I’m glad they finished, I couldn’t hold on any longer!”
Long Aoshi laughed, “Bai Yan, you’ve worked hard. Those guys really thought we wouldn’t know what they’re up to if they gathered together?”
“Yeah, Bai Yan’s Thousand-mile Eye is so accurate, he’s spot on when he peeks at girls bathing…”
“Get lost!”
Bai Yan scowled and snapped.
Long Aoshi waved his hand, “No infighting, let’s think about how to screw them over!”
“Big Brother, should we tell the teacher, let that baldy deal with them!”
“No way!”
Long Aoshi shook his head, “Telling the teacher is too boring, he’ll only punish them lightly, it won’t hurt!”
“Think about it, can we play the black hand behind the scenes, do a double cross and eat them all up?!”
“Eat them all up?!”
Everyone was shocked, but they quickly flattered, “Big Brother is mighty!”
They began to rack their brains.
On the other hand, in the Third Class dormitory area.
The students who had scattered to their dorms suddenly reassembled quietly at Du Gang’s dormitory.
“Did any of you noticed we were being spied on earlier?”
Du Gang nodded, “We noticed, so we ended early. But to be detected, that person must not be very strong, probably Long Aoshi’s team!”
At this moment, everyone like Long Aotian, Little Hawk King, Yao Zixuan was here.
“What should we do?”
“It would be great if we could know what they’re thinking!”
Everyone sighed.
At this moment, the young man carrying the coffin shyly said, “I, I can!”
“You can?”
Du Gang looked at him disbelievingly. If he said he could fight, Du Gang would believe, but could he spy on others?
The lad with the coffin did not talk much, quickly removed the coffin from his back, lifted the cover, revealing the tightly wrapped corpse inside.
“!@￥%…)”
Then he recited some cryptic incantations.
“Zap!”
To everyone’s fright, the man lying in the coffin suddenly sat up.
It didn’t stop there, the man stood up like he was alive.
“Big Brother, since they’re planning to mess with the Confucians, they’ll surely distract the teachers then…”
“We can’t stay in the teaching area, so they’re very likely to find a good place…”
“At that time, they’ll surely bring the Confucians to visit our academy…”
“The arena is a good place. Each arena has a betting curse similar to Libra’s effect, so they’re very likely to provoke a challenge when they bring people there…”
Du Gang and the others did not even dare to breathe as the mummy relayed what was happening on the other side.
Soon, the voice of Long Aoshi came from the mummy’s mouth, “There’s Libra’s protection in the arena, no matter who wins or loses, it doesn’t concern us, right? How do we double-cross them?!”
Then, the voice from before rang out once again.
“Big brother, don’t rush. The Libra curse used on the arena is not too powerful, and it has some loopholes. For example, once one of the fighters wins and touches the spoils of the battle, the prohibition to prevent others from touching it disappears…”
“At that time, we can use a flight prohibition charm on them. I know a charm that can inhibit the inner world, it’s worth ten thousand Divine Crystals. I think we should be able to afford it if we pool our resources…”
“Ten thousand Divine Crystals?”
Everyone else took in a sharp breath.
The youth from before laughed: “It’s just ten thousand Divine Crystals. Don’t hesitate to buy the wolf skin for the sake of your child. You guys have seen what they took out, sixty or seventy thousand Divine Crystals. If we add the ones from students of the Holy Confucian Academy, it can surpass a hundred thousand Divine Crystals…”
“At that time, we will rush up together, rob them, won’t it all be earned back?”
Long Aoshi frowned, “But that Du Gang, his strength is unbelievable…”
He had been beaten by Du Gang twice and had no way to deal with him.
“Big brother, it’s only Du Gang who is strong, what’s the use? Those guys who came from the Universe, their overall strength is clearly very weak, we will outnumber them by then, grab the goods and run…”
“Although Du Gang is strong, if he can’t put divine weapons and artifacts into his inner world, how much can he protect?”
Hearing this, everyone else was wildly excited.
Long Aoshi said, “In that case, it can’t be just us few to make a move. We should rope everyone else in, let us all put in money together to buy the flight-prohibition charm, and perhaps buy a few handy items…”
The sound stopped suddenly at this point.
It’s not the other side that finished speaking, but this side, the coffin-carrying young man, couldn’t hold on anymore. Sweating profusely, he quickly put the corpse away, quickly closed the coffin lid, not even carrying it on his back, but sat down on it directly.
“You ghost, you’re really inconsiderate, I haven’t heard enough…”
The coffin-carrying young man, You Sheng, looked helpless and shook his head, “I can’t anymore, if I continue to listen, my treasure is going to be awakened…”
“Ah?”
Hearing this, everyone was frightened and took three steps back hastily.
The corpse in his coffin was a True God-level corpse. If it revives…
Seeing everyone’s reaction, You Sheng quickly waved his hands, “It’s okay as long as the coffin lid is pressed down, I’m experienced, and not afraid!”
Hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
Don’t fuck me. It’s hard to get through the catastrophe and become a god, only to die at the hands of a revived corpse.
“What shall we do now?”
Everyone looked at each other, feeling a little at a loss.
“Do we call everyone over and discuss it?”
“No!”
Du Gang quickly shook his head, putting a stop to their idea.
He swept a look at the crowd, those currently present included Long Aotian, Little Hawk King, Yao Zixuan siblings, Gemini Lolis, You Sheng, and Dugu Hong.
Excluding him, there were nine in total.
Everything present basically were the ones with sharp senses or special methods, only then could they discover the others’ poking around. Those who didn’t come would naturally be the ones who didn’t notice the problem.
Everyone looked at Du Gang, waiting for his answer.
Du Gang shook his head, “When there are too many people, the news will leak…”
Speaking of which, he glared at Long Aotian, “You bastard, leave now. You’re not welcome here!”
“On what grounds?!”
Long Aotian was indignant, “Why the hell should I leave?!”
Du Gang angrily said, “You fucking idiot, I told you to keep a secret and you fucking made it known to the whole class, even Long Aoshi and his lot know…”
“Nonsense, I didn’t say anything!”
Long Aotian fiercely denied it.
I, Long Aotian, have the tightest lips ever!
Du Gang almost choked, “I have never seen a shameless person like you. If you didn’t say it, did I?!”
“That could be a possibility…”
Long Aotian muttered a few words.
“You fucking leave, right now!”
Du Gang tried to chase him away again!
Long Aotian was not pleased, threatened him: “If you ask me to leave, I’ll go tell the teacher about your plan right now!”
Damn it!
This little bastard!
Du Gang was so angry that he wanted to bite. If he had known, he would have never involved this little bastard.
Seeing this, the rest quickly acted as peacemakers and started to persuade them both.
“Just let it be, let’s all get along…”
“You both love each other…”
“Get lost!”
Du Gang grumpily cursed one sentence, he glanced at Little Hawk King.
The Little Hawk King immediately got the message and didn’t dare to say anything more.
He warned, “Long Aotian, if you dare talk too much this time and let the information leak again, I swear that I will never work with you again!”
The others saw this, and one by one expressed their views, “Long Aotian, make a promise…”
Long Aotian’s face was twisted with indignation, “I didn’t spread it, why should I make a promise?!”
I’m too aggrieved, it’s not my fault, I’m tight-lipped Long Aotian!
Everyone else was speechless, especially Little Hawk King. Long Aotian himself had told him about this…
He immediately said, “Long Aotian, you must make this promise today. Otherwise, not to mention Du Gang, even we won’t dare to work with you in the future!”
Everyone else expressed their agreement when they heard that.
Left without a choice, Long Aotian finally raised his middle finger to the sky and swore, “I swear that I will never disclose today’s incident…”
“If I can’t do it, I will…contract grey nails…”
“Get out!”
Du Gang immediately got angry, clenched his fist, and couldn’t help wanting to punch Long Aotian.
“Cool down!”
Everyone hastily held him back.
“Long Aotian, can’t you be serious and make a real oath?”
Long Aotian looked aggrieved, “Contracting grey nails is quite terrible…”
“Get lost!” Everyone yelled at him unanimously.
Left without any choice, Long Aotian finally made a severe pledge, “If I break my oath, may I be cursed and my descendents be wiped out!”
Hearing this, everyone finally let him off.
“Du Gang, you say it, what plans do you have!”
Little Hawk King asked hurriedly.
After hearing this, Du Gang pondered for two seconds, and pulled out a necklace.
“My necklace!”
Yao Zixuan exclaimed, lowered her head, took off the necklace around her neck, and frowned slightly, “Du Gang, you obviously gave this necklace back to me, how come…”
Hearing this, everyone immediately looked at the two of them meaningfully.
Their gaze went back and forth non-stop.
They’re having an affair!
Hehehe!
Du Gang calmly accepted this kind of gaze, and smiled, “Zixuan, isn’t it because I miss you that I especially returned home to have our local people make an identical one…”
As he said this, he lightly pinched it.
“Pop!”
The necklace in his hand suddenly shattered into fragments.
“Holy shit!”
Everyone was stupefied and looked at this scene, forgetting Du Gang’s previous flirtatious words.
Only Yao Zixuan’s face turned red all of a sudden.
This is the first time someone has spoken to her like this.
Her life is fleeting, and only those with a deeper background know it, so no boys chase her.
Or that is, those who are eligible to pursue her know about her fate and will not get near her.
And those who aren’t eligible, feel even more self-ashamed and hardly ever appear in front of her.
She was originally just disguising herself with a tomboyish personality, but who knew, Du Gang would actually…
“Du Gang, you damn used this to deceive us?”
Long Aotian was infuriated and scolded, “I thought you really had ten thousand divine crystals, turns out it was fake!”
The others were the same, and they glared angrily at Du Gang.
“You son of a bitch, want us to kick you out?”
Du Gang smiled and said, “Forget this silly talk, you can complain, but can’t I?”
He laughed and said, “Let’s cool down first and listen to me.”
“Ahem, this divine artifact of mine…”
As he said it, he took out another one, “Who said it’s fake?”
“Even if it was real, wouldn’t you guys think it was real if I didn’t demonstrate it in front of you?!”
“Moreover, even if it was real, Libra Rune do not care whether the two sides are equivalent, as long as you put it on, it is equivalent…”
Everyone came to their senses, “So, you want to…”
Du Gang smile and nod, “Didn’t Long Aoshi want to play black tricks?”
“Let’s also play!”
“You guys here, I will make some fake divine artifacts and give them to you. When the time comes, you also put the fake ones up…”
“Then, we will follow the normal process. Regardless of winning or losing, Long Aoshi will surely appear. Once they use the aero suspension rune, we will follow the trend and fish in troubled waters…”
“Do you understand? Rob the real divine artifact!”
Everyone stared at Du Gang with wide eyes, utterly amazed.
“You son of a bitch, you are just a naturally born bad guy, how did you think of this solution so quickly?!”
“But this way, aren’t we tricking the people from our universe too?!”
“Ahem!”
Du Gang smiled, “A friend’s death is better than mine, just consider it as an education to lose half of the divine artifacts…”
“Besides, does it have anything to do with you?”
“We are also victims, the divine artifacts were taken by Long Aoshi’s gang!”
“Holy shit!”
Hearing what Du Gang said, the others were greatly amazed.
Even Yao Zixuan couldn’t help but burst into a curse.
Long Aotian reacted the quickest and hurriedly said, “Then, I will also put in a ten thousand divine crystal divine artifact, you make me a batch of fake ones…”
The others also seemed a bit tempted.
But Du Gang shook his head, “No, if all of you put in ten thousand divine crystals, it will be easy to expose. The others are not stupid, how much is revealed today, that’s just how much it is. After all, it’s not a real bet, we mainly rely on the following black trick…”
Hearing this, everyone felt reasonable and nodded one after another.
At this moment, Du Gang looked at Yao Zixuan and said, “Zixuan, you definitely can’t talk nonsense, even your brother can’t say anything…”
Yao Zixuan shook her head, “No, that’s my brother, isn’t tricking him the same as tricking myself? If he loses his divine artifact, I need to supplement it…”
“How about this, I swear, I will only tell him, and likewise, I will make him swear, absolutely no leakage of the news!”
After seeing everyone’s gaze, she snorted coldly, “Don’t think that only Du Gang and Long Aotian can complain, so can I!”
The crowd was left speechless, only to agree to her request in the end.
But Du Gang coughed, “Zixuan, can you give me the necklace I gave you? I want to look at things and think about people…”
“Oh~~!”
Everyone immediately howled like wolves.
Yao Zixuan was embarrassed, but she actually took off the necklace and handed it to Du Gang.
Damn, she really gave it to me…
This woman is really interested in me!
Score!
At this moment, Du Gang wished he could drive everyone else away and seize the time to make a move with Yao Zixuan.
But, he still had a clear sense of what was important, didn’t think too much, regained his composure.
Only then did he continue, “Well, today’s secret meeting will end here. Remember, you haven’t been here, everyone’s plan is still to gamble with the scholar, and you don’t know Long Aoshi’s plan…”
“In addition, I will find time to make your divine artifacts, and I will quietly give them to you then…”
“That’s it, break up, leave one by one, leave quietly…”
They didn’t know that at this moment, a divine spirit who had been secretly protecting Du Gang all the way, was speechless.
“This little bastard, how come he has so many tricks?”
“Two groups of people are playing black tricks, plots within schemes, and then countering the plot, and even tricking their own people!”
After complaining for a while, Xiang Xinjian thought for a while, but eventually did not expose them.
After all, by then, those who lose money will be the scholars and Long Aoshi, what does it have to do with him?!
