Although this might damage the image I've cultivated over the years, it's worth it for Tang San!

"Master, you've misunderstood."

Although he didn't know what the master was thinking, Du Cheng keenly sensed a malice emanating from him.

Du Cheng quickly shook his head and took a step back to prevent this guy from resorting to desperate measures:

"What I mean is... we need to pay more!"

"Whoo~"

Upon hearing Du Cheng's words, the master's first reaction was surprisingly a sigh of relief:

"How much do you want?"

"Two soul tools."

Holding up two fingers, Du Cheng's smile appeared extremely sincere:

"Tang San's slander has caused great harm to my and Xiao Wu's souls. Ordinary money is simply not enough to make up for it."

After a pause, Du Cheng continued:

"But if the master could provide me and Xiaowu each with a soul tool of no less than 10 cubic meters, we could barely forgive him."

"Storage Soul Tool, you..."

"No way, right?"

Before the master could finish speaking, Du Cheng's voice rang out again:

"A master of such high standing, surely he doesn't even have the courage to take responsibility for his disciple's mistakes?"

"Teacher~"

As Du Cheng spoke, Tang San, who was standing to the side, also spoke up at the opportune moment.

Now that things have progressed this far, he has come to regard the master as his only lifeline.

If even the master abandons him, then he might really be expelled from the academy...

"I agree to this."

Faced with immense pressure from his beloved students and the many gazes around him, the master bowed his head.

As he stroked the ring on his hand, a black belt inlaid with twenty-four milky-white jade stones suddenly appeared in the master's hand:

"This belt is named 'Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moonlit Night,' and each jade stone on it has a storage space of one cubic meter."

Suppressing his reluctance, the master handed the belt to Du Cheng and continued speaking:

"If you split this belt in two, you will each obtain a twelve-cubic-meter storage soul tool."

At this point, the master paused briefly:

"Are you satisfied now?"

"I thought you were going to give me and Xiaowu each a soul tool."

Despite his complaints, Du Cheng's hands didn't slow down at all:

I've been eyeing this storage belt for a long time.

Quickly snatching the belt from the master's hand, Du Cheng's face broke into an almost barely suppressed smile:

"However, since it is a master who has spoken, I, Du Cheng, am willing to give you face."

"I am willing to forgive the other woman for this misunderstanding."

After finishing speaking, Du Cheng released Tang San, whom he had been holding, and then patted him on the shoulder affectionately:

"Mistress, you must not act so rashly in the future. After all, not everyone is as easy to talk to as I am."

"you……"

"Now that this matter is settled, let's leave it at that."

Before Tang San could speak, Grandmaster interrupted him directly:

"Mistress, come with me."

"Yes!"

Tang San naturally had to give his teacher, who had just helped him out of a problem, some face.

Tang San glared at Du Cheng again before hurriedly following Master away.

"This thing is of good quality; it's perfect for making a bracelet for each of us."

Waving the "Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moon" sword in his hand, Du Cheng's gaze fell on Xiao Wu:

"I forgave Tang San without asking your opinion. You're not angry, are you?"

"Brother Cheng has his reasons for doing this."

Upon hearing Du Cheng's words, Xiao Wu's face lit up with a big smile:

"Besides, I don't want him to be expelled from the academy. If that happens, won't I have no one left to bully?"

……

Seeing the excited gleam in Xiao Wu's eyes, Du Cheng couldn't help but twitch his lips:

Unexpectedly, this girl is not only a victim, but also petty.

"As expected of Xiao Wu, she is indeed clever."

Patting Xiao Wu's head, Du Cheng highly praised the little girl's personality:

"Let's go, let's find a place to clean this thing up a bit."

"Xiao Wu will listen to Brother Cheng."

The storage jade inlaid on the Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moonlit Night is actually only the size of a soybean, but even so, it still looks very beautiful when it sparkles in the sunlight.

Upon hearing Du Cheng's words, Xiao Wu's face immediately broke into a big smile:

Brother Du Cheng is so kind, he's even willing to give Xiao Wu such a good soul tool...

The joys and sorrows of people are never truly understood.

At this moment, Tang San could not comprehend the joy Du Cheng felt as the little girl hugged his arm and kissed him affectionately.

"Teacher, I'm sorry~"

Tang San followed the master back to his room, then lowered his head and apologized.

Do you know where you went wrong?

"I……"

Sensing the master's gaze, Tang San lowered his head even further:

"I shouldn't have made assumptions and slandered my classmate, and I also embarrassed the teacher."

"wrong!"

Tang San had barely finished speaking when Grandmaster quickly shook his head:

"Whether you misheard or did it on purpose, you and Du Cheng already had a conflict, so it's only natural to cause him trouble."

"teacher?"

Tang San's gaze fell on the Grandmaster, his expression somewhat puzzled:

If that's the case, then what wrong have I done?

"Your real mistake was acting rashly without understanding the situation."

Seemingly understanding Tang San's expression, the master spoke up to explain on his behalf:

"Now that we've decided to be enemies, we must strike with a single, decisive blow. Otherwise, today's events will serve as an obvious lesson."

"I see."

Reminded by the master, Tang San finally realized what was happening:

Yes, I was indeed a bit reckless today to try to expel Du Cheng from the academy just because of a few words I didn't hear clearly.

"Don't worry, teacher, I will never make this mistake again."

"Ah."

The master nodded, quite satisfied with Tang San's reaction.

This disciple, although a little reckless in his actions, is obedient enough and has good comprehension.

"This bracelet is called 'Full Moon and Starry Sky Tower,' and it has eight cubic meters of storage space inside."

After handing a bracelet to Tang San, the master continued:

"Although it's a little smaller than the Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moon, it should be enough for you."

"Thank you teacher!"

Tang San's eyes lit up when he saw the storage bracelet that the master had given him, which emitted a pale blue light.

When the master gave the Twenty-Four Bridges Under the Moon to Du Cheng, he was already insanely jealous. He never expected that he would be able to get one himself.
