章節 19: Chapter 19: Blue Silver Grass—Control, Life, or Hidden Weapon Flow?

Wang Sheng said, "Anyway, let's stop talking about this and go eat." Just then, Master (Yu Xiaogang) appeared nearby and spotted Tang San. "Little San, you're here to eat as well? Want to join me on the second floor?"

"Hm? What happened to your face? It's so swollen."

Tang San replied awkwardly, "Teacher, I'll explain later. It's complicated right now."

After a moment's thought, Tang San continued, "Teacher, I think I'll eat with my classmates for now. I'll come find you after dinner."

Yu Xiaogang nodded approvingly. "Good, you're not isolating yourself. Come to my office after you finish eating."

Once Yu Xiaogang left, Wang Sheng, with some curiosity, asked, "Tang San, did you just call that man 'Teacher'?"

Tang San nodded, slightly confused. "Is there a problem? He is my teacher."

Wang Sheng hesitated but continued, "Well, the thing is, Master doesn't have the best reputation, and generally, people only take one teacher…"

Before Wang Sheng could finish, Tang San's gaze hardened as he stared at Wang Sheng. Sternly, he said, "Wang Sheng, I don't want to hear you say anything like that again. Otherwise, I won't be polite about it. He is my teacher!"

With that, Tang San turned and headed off to eat, leaving Wang Sheng awkwardly standing there, unsure why Tang San had reacted so strongly. Everything he said was the truth. With a sigh, Wang Sheng shrugged. "I said what I needed to say. Let's eat."

A short while later, Su Ming and Xiao Wu finished their meal. As expected of a rabbit, Xiao Wu really loved eating carrots.

When they returned to the dormitory, only Wang Sheng and the others were there. Upon asking, they found out that Tang San had gone to meet with Yu Xiaogang.

Su Ming started organizing his things while thinking about what might be happening. Yu Xiaogang likely wanted to see Tang San's second martial soul and discuss his future development. Tomorrow, Tang San would probably go hunting for his first soul ring.

Suddenly, an amusing thought struck Su Ming, and he felt the need to record it in his diary.

[After dinner, Tang San went to meet with Yu Xiaogang. If I'm right, Yu Xiaogang probably wants to see Tang San's second martial soul and plan his future development.]

[This brings me to something I've always wanted to criticize: Yu Xiaogang's decision to develop the Blue Silver Grass as a control-type martial soul is just ridiculous.]

[Blue Silver Grass is inherently weak, and even if you add control skills to it, its base strength is just too low. If it weren't for the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline within Tang San's Blue Silver Grass, the whole thing would've been a waste of time.]

[Even with the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline, focusing on control is still a waste. Tang San even considered switching to the Clear Sky Hammer later on, despite having the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline.]

[According to some of the more insightful readers in my past life, the Blue Silver Grass would have been better suited to an auxiliary or life-based path. We can see this from Ah Yin's hundred-thousand-year soul bone, which had an incredibly powerful healing ability.]

[It could restore limbs and bones, fully healing injuries. Many fans speculated that Ah Yin herself followed the life-flow path.]

[Tang San was a special case—he was a former assassin from the Tang Sect, and being a support-type fighter would've been too limiting for him, lacking any offensive capabilities. But he could have chosen another path: the hidden weapon flow. He could have gradually added various attributes to his soul rings, using Blue Silver Grass as a tool for launching hidden weapons.]

[I remember in the original story, during the finals of the Spirit Master Tournament, Tang San couldn't use weapons due to the rules, so he used fragments of his external spirit bone, the Eight Spider Lances, as hidden weapons. If the Blue Silver Grass had followed the hidden weapon flow, he wouldn't have had this issue.]

Xiao Wu was also settling her new blanket on her bed. This time, unlike in the original story, she didn't push her bed together with Tang San's. Having read Su Ming's diary and now understanding the differences between boys and girls, she didn't want to do something like that. Even though they were still young, Su Ming's influence, coupled with what she knew about Tang San, made her hesitant.

As for sharing a bed with Su Ming, Xiao Wu feared he might get too handsy since he clearly had perverted tendencies.

Most importantly, being too close to Su Ming could make it easier for him to notice the unusual rewards she was getting from the diary.

As Xiao Wu read Su Ming's latest diary entry, she realized his reasoning made a lot of sense.

Meanwhile, Hu Liena, reading from the Spirit Hall, was shocked. She didn't care much about the path Tang San took, but Su Ming's diary hinted that Spirit Hall would lose in the upcoming Spirit Master Tournament!

Doing the math, Hu Liena realized that this was her tournament! How could that be?

In all previous tournaments, Spirit Hall had always emerged victorious. The idea of an unexpected defeat during her generation was unacceptable. She resolved to train even harder starting now.

Bibi Dong, noticing Hu Liena's reaction, coldly remarked, "Nana, after today, you must work harder in your training. I do not want to see that outcome happen."

Hu Liena quickly responded, "Yes, Teacher!"

From Bibi Dong's perspective, Hu Liena's tournament was supposed to be another victory for Spirit Hall. As her disciple and the future Holy Maiden, this was also an opportunity to award Hu Liena a spirit bone in the open. The fact that Tang San's team would win instead was infuriating.

Back at the office.

When Tang San arrived, Yu Xiaogang didn't immediately ask to see his second martial soul. Instead, he started by checking on him, not wanting to rush things.

"Tang San, you probably didn't eat enough downstairs. I brought you a roast chicken leg—eat it first."

"At your age, you need proper nutrition to grow. Look how thin you are!"

Tang San thanked him and quickly ate the chicken leg, not wanting to make his teacher wait long. It wasn't that he hadn't eaten enough before, but the food on the first floor lacked much meat, and what little there was was expensive. Most of his meal had been vegetables and rice.

Though Old Jack had given him ten silver spirit coins, Tang San knew he needed to be frugal. He was still young and had no way to earn money yet. Who knew how much he might need later for his martial soul training?

A minute later, after Tang San had finished eating, Yu Xiaogang handed him a cup of water and then asked, "Tang San, show me your second martial soul. I'll analyze it for you and help plan your future development."


章節 20: Chapter 20: Su Ming—"Tang San, Keeping Your Secret Isn’t Free, You Owe Me!"

Tang San nodded. Even though his father had warned him not to reveal his second martial soul, it had already been discovered by his teacher. He trusted his teacher wouldn't disclose it to anyone.

Tang San stretched out his left hand, revealing a small blue hammer—it was the Clear Sky Hammer!

"What is this?"

Yu Xiaogang stared at the hammer in utter shock.

So, Tang San's second martial soul was the Clear Sky Hammer. Coupled with the fact that he wasn't in the Clear Sky Clan and enrolled as a work-study student, this...

Tang San looked confused. Why was his teacher so surprised? Was there something wrong with his martial soul?

"Teacher, is something wrong with my martial soul?"

Yu Xiaogang snapped back to reality, gripping Tang San's shoulder. "Little San, listen to me carefully. From now on, unless I give you explicit permission, you must never use your second martial soul in front of others!"

"As for the reasons, I can't explain everything right now. You'll understand in due time."

"Understood, Teacher," Tang San replied, still puzzled by how his father and Yu Xiaogang gave him the same warning.

After Tang San put away the Clear Sky Hammer, Yu Xiaogang outlined the path for Tang San's soul master development, suggesting he take the control system route. Tang San nodded in agreement.

Once the discussion about his future was finished, Yu Xiaogang suddenly remembered that he hadn't yet asked Tang San about his injury.

"Little San, how did you hurt your face? You only just started at the academy today."

Tang San awkwardly explained the events leading to his injury.

Yu Xiaogang was thoughtful. "I didn't expect Su Ming to be so skilled at such a young age."

But he reassured Tang San confidently, "Don't worry. With your talent and if you follow my instructions, surpassing him is only a matter of time."

Yu Xiaogang then pulled out a belt-shaped soul tool. Originally, he planned to give it to Tang San tomorrow but decided to hand it over now.

"Little San, this is a soul tool for you. It has twenty-four jade stones, each containing a cubic meter of space."

Tang San accepted the gift without hesitation. "Thank you, Teacher."

As the saying goes, one should not refuse a gift from their elders. Plus, this seemed like a token of their relationship.

Yu Xiaogang explained, "I got this soul tool thirty years ago, and it has been sitting unused all these years. Why don't you give it a name?"

Tang San thought for a moment. "Let's call it 'Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges'."

Yu Xiaogang nodded approvingly. "A fine name. Go back and prepare yourself. Tomorrow, I'll take you to hunt your first soul beast."

After the conversation ended, Tang San returned to Dorm Seven.

As soon as he entered, he saw Su Ming and Xiao Wu both meditating.

Tang San noticed that Xiao Wu already had a brand-new blanket, meaning Su Ming had helped her buy it. He couldn't help but feel a twinge of disappointment for some reason.

Su Ming heard movement at the door and saw that Tang San had returned. He ended his meditation and greeted him.

"Tang San, you're back. I bought some ointment for you. Use it, and your face should be healed in a few days."

Tang San took the ointment, noticing Su Ming's concerned expression. Although he knew Su Ming meant well, something about it made him feel uncomfortable.

Then, Tang San hesitated for a moment before quietly asking, "Su Ming, can you keep the secret about my twin martial souls?"

Su Ming replied, "Don't worry, I'm tight-lipped. After all, we're from the same village, and we'll be living and studying together for a long time. Unless you reveal your talent yourself, I won't say anything."

The female protagonists: "Oh, sure, you're tight-lipped, but your thoughts aren't! We all know!"

Tang San felt a bit more at ease after Su Ming's reassurance.

But Su Ming had his own thoughts: Tang San, I can keep your secret, but it'll cost you. Nothing much—just forget about Xiao Wu, the Eight Spider Lances, and the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. They're trivial, after all. What really matters is your twin martial souls, right? Heh heh!

Tang San then turned to Xiao Wu. "Xiao Wu, were you just meditating?"

Xiao Wu responded, "Yes, why?"

Tang San asked, puzzled, "But you have innate full spirit power. What's the point of cultivating before you obtain a soul ring?"

At that moment, Su Ming chimed in, "I suggested she keep cultivating. According to your teacher's theory, even without a soul ring, continued cultivation will manifest its benefits once a soul ring is added. It's one of Master's theories, and I've looked into it. It should be true, since he 'organized' it from the Spirit Hall's archives."

Tang San's mouth twitched. Su Ming won't let this go, huh? Still, he realized, That makes sense. Whether Master's theory is original or not doesn't matter, as long as it works.

However, Su Ming found Xiao Wu's sudden dedication to cultivation a bit strange. Given that she was a 100,000-year-old soul beast in human form, she should already have a significant innate advantage. Until she reached the Title Douluo level, her cultivation should progress naturally without much effort.

Yet, earlier that day, Xiao Wu had specifically asked Su Ming whether cultivation without a soul ring was beneficial. Su Ming had been surprised but had still answered her.

What Su Ming didn't know was that Xiao Wu already knew this cultivation theory. She had asked to set up a reason for her increased cultivation, as she was actually already at Spirit Level 11, and her first soul ring had already formed.

Her question was a preemptive move, so Su Ming wouldn't ask why she was still cultivating even though she had reached full spirit power.

Still, Xiao Wu's plan had one flaw: Su Ming knew her character too well. It was out of character for her to be so diligent in her early cultivation. Su Ming suspected something was up.

What he didn't realize was that Xiao Wu had been motivated by the diary. Knowing that Su Ming's strength would grow rapidly, she didn't want to fall behind and even hoped to fulfill her dream of beating him at least once. That's why she had started to train seriously.

Ignoring Tang San, Su Ming and Xiao Wu resumed their meditation.

Seeing that he could continue cultivating even before acquiring a soul ring, Tang San also started training. Inspired by the three of them, the rest of Dorm Seven joined in, sparking a wave of competitive spirit.

Before long, everyone in Dorm Seven was caught up in cultivation!
