Background and History
In his previous life, Tang San belonged to the Tang Sect. Reborn as Tang Feng’s twin, he grew up in Holy Soul Village with their father, Tang Hao. At six, he awakened twin Martial Souls and tested with Innate Full Soul Power. Tang Feng had previously hinted that he wanted to train with him, but Tang San played dumb 1.
Tang Hao favored Tang San and taught him the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer while sending Tang Feng away to work. Tang Feng eventually left the village, and Tang Hao entrusted Tang San’s care to Yu Xiaogang at Nuoding Junior Soul Master Academy 1 9.
Appearance
Tang San had short blue hair before his transformation. After Tang Feng made him swallow the Yin Gu, his hair grew to his waist, his features became more delicate, and his body took on a feminine form 17 48.
- His eyes were gouged out by Tang Feng and later regrown through a healing-type Titled Douluo’s treatment 25 36.
- Following the Yin Gu transformation, he wore clothes that Xiao Wu had stored with him 48.
Personality
Tang San regarded Xiao Wu as his little sister and family. After Tang Feng captured her, he fought despite recognizing that he was outmatched. Her sacrifice left him with recurring nightmares, and learning that she was a Soul Beast did not change his feelings toward her 9 17.
He could also be guarded and calculating. He concealed the truth about Xiao Wu’s sacrifice from Yu Xiaogang and, when Da Ming and Er Ming came to interrogate him, pretended to sleep before attempting to subdue them 17.
Abilities & Skills
Twin Martial Souls
Tang San awakened both Blue Silver Grass and the Clear Sky Hammer 1.
- Blue Silver Entanglement — His first Soul Skill binds a target with Blue Silver Grass. It failed to hold Tang Feng, whose Blue Silver Emperor bloodline caused the grass to collapse 9.
- Clear Sky Hammer — Tang San summoned it against Tang Hao, but his hammer was smaller and weaker; their collision nearly caused Tang San’s own weapon to strike him 49 50.
Tang Sect Secret Arts
Tang San trained in the Mysterious Heaven Skill from childhood and used several Tang Sect techniques in combat 1 9.
- Purple Demon Eye, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, and Mysterious Jade Hand were used during his fight with Tang Feng 9.
- He used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to evade Tang Hao and Mysterious Jade Hand when their hammers clashed 49 50.
- He was also proficient in the Hidden Weapon Compendium 49.
Temporary Sharingan
During Tang Feng’s abduction of him, Tang San’s eyes rapidly evolved through the tomoe stages to the Mangekyō Sharingan. He fired a laser from his eyes, but Tang Feng blocked it with Invincible Golden Body. Tang Feng subsequently removed the eyes 24 25.
Equipment
- Silent Sleeve Arrows — Hidden weapons Tang San forged from scrap iron supplied by Tang Hao. He used them against Tang Feng and later killed Ma Hongjun with one 9 25 49.
- Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges — A storage item from which he retrieved rope and Xiao Wu’s clothes 17 48.
- Hidden toe blade — A blade he deployed during his fight against Tang Feng 9.
Relationships
- Tang Hao — His father, who favored and protected him, arranged for his education, and trained him. Driven mad during Tang Feng’s scheme, Tang Hao ultimately killed him 1 9 36 50.
- Tang Feng — His twin brother and later enemy. Tang Feng captured Xiao Wu, removed Tang San’s eyes, and eventually captured and controlled him with the King Ball 1 9 25 42.
- Ah Yin — His mother. Tang Hao withheld the truth about her and planned to delay awakening Tang San’s Blue Silver Emperor bloodline until he reached at least level 50 3 36.
- Xiao Wu — His close companion, whom he considered his little sister. Her sacrifice to Tang Feng devastated him 9 10 17.
- Yu Xiaogang — His teacher at Nuoding and later Shrek. Tang San distrusted his reaction to the prospect of a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Ring and Soul Bone 17 38.
- Da Ming and Er Ming — Soul Beasts who came to question him about Xiao Wu. After their initial confrontation, the three lived together in Nuoding City and became friends 17 23.
Story Role
Xiao Wu’s sacrifice
About a year after leaving home, Tang Feng confronted Tang San and Xiao Wu. Tang San’s Blue Silver Entanglement failed against him, and Tang Feng captured Xiao Wu in the King Ball. Tang San fought to recover her but was defeated; Xiao Wu subsequently sacrificed herself to Tang Feng 9 10.
Tang San learned what sacrifice meant from Yu Xiaogang without revealing what had happened to Xiao Wu. Da Ming and Er Ming later came to interrogate him, and the three eventually became friends 17 23.
Abduction and recovery
Tang Feng abducted Tang San while Tang Hao pursued them, then dropped him to delay their father. Tang San lost his eyes during the encounter. Tang Hao secured treatment from a healing-type Titled Douluo, who regrew them at the cost of all his Soul Power and twenty years of his life 24 25 30 36.
After training with Tang Hao, Tang San reached level 33 and enrolled at Shrek Academy. During a two-on-two Soul Fight against Tang Feng and Zhu Zhuqing, Tang Feng immobilized him with Sharingan Genjutsu and captured him in the King Ball 36 42.
Captivity and death
While under Tang Feng’s control, Tang San attacked Yu Xiaogang, swallowed the Yin Gu, and killed Ma Hongjun. Tang Feng then used him in a scheme against Tang Hao near the Swordbreak Mountain Range 48 49.
Tang Hao, unable to accept Tang San’s identity, attacked him with the Clear Sky Hammer. Tang San initially dodged, then summoned his own hammer in an attempt to convince his father. Unable to withstand the blows or bring Tang Hao to his senses, he fell to his knees; Tang Hao crushed his upper body with the hammer 49 50.
