"Zhu Zhuqing, whose martial soul is the Nine Ghost Cat, is so loyal to her sister that they can move mountains. Therefore, she is hereby conferred the title of—Phantom Marquis!"
"Ye Lengleng, whose martial soul is the Nine-Hearted Sacred Begonia, controls life and death, and is benevolent and compassionate, is hereby conferred the title of—Sacred Heart Marquis!"
"Dugu Yan, whose martial soul is the Azure Spirit Poison Dragon, is a master of poison and unparalleled in power. He is hereby conferred the title of—Azure Spirit Marquis!"
"Meng Yiran's martial soul is a dragon-headed snake staff, with dragon flames burning the sky, unparalleled in its ferocity. He is hereby conferred the title of—Marquis of Crimson Flame!"
Six titles were read out in a row, each one precisely corresponding to their martial spirit and characteristics.
But it's not over yet.
The Blood Night Emperor's gaze then fell upon the three dancers who had just become his disciples.
"The newly appointed disciple of King Tianwei, Huowu, possesses extraordinary talent and a promising future. He is hereby granted the title of Marquis Yanling!"
"Shui Bing'er, with the Ice Phoenix Martial Soul, a proud daughter of heaven, is hereby conferred the title of—Ice Phoenix Marquis!"
"Shui Yue'er, with her dolphin martial spirit, is intelligent and agile. She is hereby conferred the title of—Marquis of the Sea Spirit!"
"In addition to the various rewards I just promised, I also want every city and every academy within the Tiandou territory."
"Erect stone statues and gild bodies for the Heavenly King and the nine marquises... so that they may be famous throughout the continent and revered by all people."
When Emperor Blood Night uttered his last word, the entire Soul Arena went completely mad!
"My God! Nine women were granted titles! What a feat! It's worthy of being recorded in history."
"I'm so jealous! I'm so jealous! Why wasn't I the one chosen?!"
"Waaaaah... I just want to know if the Heavenly Might Prince's Mansion needs anyone to sweep the floors? I'd even be willing to pay!"
The tens of thousands of audience members were green with envy.
The young soul masters who participated were filled with regret and despair.
Looking at the nine radiant figures on the stage, Feng Xiaotian felt for the first time what a difference in status truly meant.
He always thought he was a genius, the best of the younger generation.
But now I realize that in the face of true opportunity, talent and hard work are simply insignificant.
If... if I had performed better back then, would I have had a chance to be noticed by the Heavenly King?
Once the thought arose, it echoed wildly in his mind like the whispers of the devil.
Not only him, but almost all the talented young soul masters had the same thought at this moment.
Disappointment, frustration, resentment, jealousy...
A mix of emotions drove them almost to madness.
But in front of so many people, no one dared to show the slightest dissatisfaction. They could only join the crowd in shouting.
"Congratulations to King Tianwei on the acquisition of a fine disciple!"
Congratulations to the nine marquises!
Although they said that, they had already made up their minds.
If it doesn't work this time, there's always next time!
No matter what, we must find a way to attract the attention of the Heavenly King!
Even just a single word of guidance from him would be enough to benefit one for a lifetime!
Chapter 133 The Master Wants to Escape - The Bewitched Prince
However, just as the whole audience was cheering and the atmosphere reached its peak...
No one noticed,
Yu Xiaogang, along with the seven members of Slade's second team, who looked like stray dogs, quietly left the Soul Arena.
In Tiandou City, inside a remote and dilapidated house.
Dai Mubai kicked open the door and looked at Yu Xiaogang, who was following behind him, with a look of impatience.
Why did you bring us to this godforsaken place?
"Spit it out! This is the last time we'll listen to your nonsense, you piece of trash!"
Dai Mubai's voice echoed in the dilapidated house, filled with undisguised resentment and contempt.
He lost the game, was humiliated on stage like a clown, and finally watched helplessly as those women were promoted and enjoyed the spotlight.
But he could only slink away from the arena like a rat crossing the street.
This huge disparity nearly caused Dai Mubai's jealousy and anger to explode.
He now finds everyone disagreeable, especially this "master" who is responsible for their current predicament—Yu Xiaogang!
Upon hearing the word "useless," Yu Xiaogang's face instantly turned ashen, and her fists clenched so tightly in her sleeves that they cracked.
Yu Xiaogang, who prides himself on being invincible in theory, has never suffered such humiliation in person.
Especially since it was his own disciple!
A surge of anger rushed to the top of his head, and he almost lost his temper on the spot.
But when he thought about his next plan, he forced himself to swallow his anger.
Then he took a deep breath, forced a smile that looked more like a grimace, and said:
"You have suffered a crushing defeat in today's battle."
“I know that Slake Academy will no longer have a place for me.”
"So... I plan to leave right away."
"Hahahaha!"
Ma Hongjun was the first to break down, clutching his stomach and laughing hysterically until tears streamed down his face.
"Leave? You piece of trash should have left long ago! And now you're only thinking of leaving?"
Auska also chimed in sarcastically:
"Master, are you scared that you're only leaving now?"
"Are you afraid that Teacher Su will make you fulfill your bet and expose all your glorious deeds to the public?"
"Hahaha, I think it's probably true!" Dai Mubai laughed sarcastically.
The three men's taunts were like three sharp knives, piercing Yu Xiaogang's heart.
But he still suppressed his humiliation, as if he hadn't heard the mockery.
"Laugh all you want, laugh all you want."
“Skirk is now completely dominated by Su Xin. I really have no face to stay here any longer.”
"But...do you think that once I leave, things will be better?"
These words were like a bucket of cold water, instantly extinguishing the laughter of Dai Mubai and the other two.
Yu Xiaogang looked at their reactions and sneered inwardly, knowing that her words had worked.
He continued, adding, "You all see Su Xin's favoritism."
"Immortal-grade medicinal herbs, martial spirit evolution... even a little guidance and instruction—which of these have you ever received?"
"Not only does he give you nothing, but he also suppresses and toys with you at every turn."
"We'll use you as negative examples for those female students, as fodder for gossip, and as a laughingstock for the whole world!"
“If you continue to stay there… you are destined to live in the shadow of those women for the rest of your lives.”
"In the end, he completely drained you of your value and then threw you away like trash! What a waste of your talent!"
Yu Xiaogang's voice was full of inflammatory rhetoric, and every word precisely struck at their most painful spot.
Dai Mubai and the others' faces instantly turned pale and then red.
They couldn't refute it.
Because everything Yu Xiaogang said was true!
From the day Su Xin appeared, their lives plummeted from heaven to hell.
All the glory and honor were stolen by those six women.
All that remained for them was endless jealousy, resentment, and humiliation.
Seeing that the time was right, Yu Xiaogang changed the subject and extended her own olive branch.
“I know you look down on me from the bottom of your hearts, and think I’m a useless person who only knows how to talk big.”
"But ask yourselves honestly, isn't the Seven-in-One Fusion Technique my achievement?"
He straightened his back, and a trace of the arrogance of a "master" finally returned to his face.
"Even if my theory is not as helpful as Su Xin's, it is enough to save you from many detours."
"So why don't you come with me? Let's get out of this suffocating place."
"We will find another way to create a future that truly belongs to us!"
"As long as you still believe in me, I promise that you will get back a hundredfold, a thousandfold, for the humiliation you suffered today!"
Yu Xiaogang's voice was full of passion and seduction, as if she were unfolding a grand blueprint in front of them.
However, he was met with a long silence.
After a long while, Ma Hongjun and Auska finally spoke in hushed tones.
"Master... what you said may all be true."
"But...we can't leave."
Yu Xiaogang's face darkened: "Why? Are you really willing to be trampled under Su Xin's feet for the rest of your lives?"
"I'm not reconciled! Of course I'm not reconciled!" Ma Hongjun shouted excitedly.
“But! Xiao Ao and I were both adopted by Dean Flander when we were young. Without him... we would have starved to death on the streets long ago.”
“Slake is our home. No matter how much we suffer here, we will never leave.”
