People are writing diaries in Douluo, Bibi Dong is crazy about it

**Chapter 255: Unexpected Gains**

After allowing Yu Xiaogang to shower, change into clean clothes, and eat a hearty meal, the dean of Notting Junior Soul Master Academy brought him to his office. With a concerned expression, the dean asked, "Xiao Gang, how did you end up like this? You're the second young master of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family; you shouldn't be in such a pitiful state."

Yu Xiaogang sighed deeply and began recounting his misfortunes over the years. He placed particular emphasis on the events at the Soto City Fighting Spirit Arena, squarely placing all the blame on Zhao Ling.

The dean frowned as he listened. "Xiao Gang, you said this man, Zhao Ling, is from Notting City? I've never heard of anyone like him in Notting City."

Yu Xiaogang shook his head, clearly puzzled. "I'm not sure either, but Zhao Ling himself claimed to be from Notting City. Even when he introduced himself to the Spirit Hall, he said the same."

The dean appeared skeptical. "So you've come to Notting City to investigate this Demon Suppression Douluo? I'll be honest—it's going to be difficult. I've lived here for many years, and I've never heard of him rising to prominence in this city."

Yu Xiaogang sighed. "It's not just that. To be honest, I have no home to return to now. My brother was beaten into a fool by Zhao Ling, and my father is forcing me to marry my sister-in-law."

Yu Xiaogang hesitated before continuing. "I've already caused so much harm to my brother. How can I marry his wife and have children with her? Besides..." He chose not to admit his loss of physical capability.

The dean studied him and asked tentatively, "So, what do you plan to do?"

Yu Xiaogang replied, "I want to find a job here. You know I've always excelled in theory. That's all I have left to offer."

Since Yu Xiaogang had spent the past five years in the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family dungeon, he hadn't had the opportunity to access ancient texts or develop something like the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Souls, as he had in the original novel.

Though he lacked the qualifications to be revered as a "Master," his upbringing in the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family meant he had a strong foundation in theoretical knowledge—enough to surpass the teachers at Notting Junior Soul Master Academy.

With this in mind, he hoped to secure a teaching position to avoid starvation.

The dean nodded thoughtfully. "That shouldn't be a problem. With your theoretical knowledge, you're more than qualified to teach our students. You can stay here and work at the academy."

"However," the dean added with a hint of caution, "keep in mind that this is just a junior soul master academy. The salary isn't high, so I hope you won't be disappointed."

Yu Xiaogang felt a surge of relief and gratitude. "That's fine. Thank you so much."

He was genuinely touched by his friend's kindness. If even the dean had rejected him, Yu Xiaogang wouldn't have known where to go.

And so, Yu Xiaogang began his new life as an ordinary teacher at Notting Junior Soul Master Academy.

Meanwhile, the story shifts to Tang Xiao and Tang Hao. For the past half-month, the brothers had camped near a lake, hoping to uncover the source of an unease that had been haunting them.

Tang Hao, in particular, felt a strong connection to the mysterious force, though they hadn't encountered it anywhere else.

Unable to resist their curiosity, they decided to dive to the bottom of the lake to investigate. Unfortunately, they didn't know how deep it was.

Their martial souls weren't suited for water exploration, unlike those who believed in the Sea God and possessed aquatic-related martial souls. As a result, they rented a fishing boat from local fishermen and sailed to the lake's center.

Tang Hao tied a thick rope around his waist and took a deep breath before plunging into the water, while Tang Xiao stayed on the boat ready to pull him up if anything went wrong.

Over several days, the brothers explored the lake as best as they could but their efforts yielded no answers.

Frustrated and out of options, they finally left the lake to continue their journey across Douluo Continent, though the mystery continued to gnaw at them.

Elsewhere, Zhao Ling was monitoring the aftermath of his attack on the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. More than a week had passed since he had bombarded their compound with three hummingbirds and sent another hummingbird to patrol the area.

To his surprise, the ruins were completely abandoned. He couldn't understand why the family had fled.

Why would they run? Zhao Ling wondered. He didn't do anything extreme last time; he just sent three hummingbirds to drop twenty or so bombs on their estate. That shouldn't be enough to drive them away entirely.

He was particularly annoyed because he had promised Liu Erlong, Xiao Wu, and Tong'er that they could bomb the family again once they rebuilt. Their sudden disappearance would make it impossible to fulfill his promise.

Determined to locate them, Zhao Ling sent his hummingbirds to search a 100-mile radius around Tiandou Imperial City multiple times.

Despite his efforts, he couldn't find any trace of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex family. Frustrated, he silently mocked them for being cowards.

However, his search wasn't entirely fruitless. In the process, he stumbled upon something unexpected—the location of the Haotian Sect.

So that's where they are; though he had heard rumors that the Haotian Sect was based near Tiandou Imperial City; he had never actively sought them out.

Now, purely by chance, he had discovered their whereabouts—a truly unexpected gain.
