Background / History
Tang Wulin met Lin Xuan as a child after Tang Ziran introduced them and asked him to address Lin as an older brother. He quickly developed goodwill toward Lin Xuan, who promised to protect him from bullies. 1
He awakened Blue Silver Grass as his Martial Soul and later demonstrated unusual talent as a blacksmith. At the East Sea Blacksmith Association, he completed Thousand Forging Spirit Attraction with Deep Silver, passed the Third-Grade Forging Master assessment with full marks, and became the youngest Master-level forging master in continental history. 27 28
Tang Wulin and Lin Xuan became Mu Chen's disciples to continue their forging studies. 30 After Tang Ziran and his wife left Aolai City without warning, Tang Wulin was troubled by their disappearance but remained resilient. 52
Following Lin Xuan's disappearance, Tang Wulin became withdrawn and trained obsessively. He blamed his own lack of strength for being unable to protect those close to him and resolved to surpass his former dependence on Lin Xuan's protection. 101
Over time, he became suspicious of “Old Tang,” the presence within his spiritual world. He secretly tested Old Tang’s motives, concluded that the being was connected to the Golden Dragon King bloodline, and chose to develop his own spear path rather than rely entirely on inherited power. 165 332
Tang Wulin eventually confronted Tang San’s Divine Sense directly, rejecting Tang San as his father and identifying Tang Ziran as his only father. 332 The Golden Dragon King bloodline was later extracted from him; to stabilize his damaged vitality, the Golden Dragon Spear merged into his spine, improving his aptitude for spear cultivation. 337

Personality
Tang Wulin is loyal, earnest, and highly protective of his friends. He supports Lin Xuan even when others mock him, risks himself against dangerous enemies, and is willing to accept danger during the Tang Sect operation in Star Luo City. 8 48 232
His early confidence is often tempered by admiration for Lin Xuan. He is proud of Lin Xuan’s accomplishments, yet repeatedly resolves to train harder when confronted with the widening difference in their strength. 11 50 361
After Lin Xuan’s disappearance, Tang Wulin becomes colder and more reserved, hiding grief and anger behind arrogance while pushing himself beyond reasonable limits. 101 His later distrust of Old Tang reflects caution and independence: he refuses to be defined as the Golden Dragon King or treated as a vessel for another being’s plans. 165 332
