Tang Hao: I Believe It, I Believe It

"Grandpa, I'm going out to play."

After dinner, Su Ming said goodbye to Old Jack and left the house.

"Remember to come back early." Watching his grandson leave, Old Jack went off to attend to other matters.

At first, Old Jack had been very worried about Su Ming going out to play in the evenings and sometimes returning home very late, afraid that he might encounter some danger outside.

But as Su Ming's talents became apparent, coupled with the fact that he returned safely every time, Old Jack gradually came to rest easy.

Little San must be getting impatient waiting there.

Su Ming knew the original story well. How could he not know that Tang San possessed Twin Martial Souls?

Given the years they had spent together, Tang San would surely tell him this secret and might even hope to get some advice from him.

After all, the talents Su Ming had displayed since childhood were his formidable physical abilities, exceptional learning capacity, and intelligence.

The flashes of inspiration that struck him from time to time often produced useful ideas.

However, instead of hurrying over as usual, Su Ming strolled along at an unhurried pace.

He would make Tang San wait a little longer and let him get anxious. Maybe he could harvest a bit more Willpower.

As the saying went, even a mosquito was still meat.

Especially from characters with important roles in the original story, Willpower was more easily produced and could be harvested in greater amounts.

"Why hasn't Brother Ming come yet? Could something have happened?"

Looking at the sky, Tang San grew somewhat anxious.

Su Ming had always arrived on time in the past.

And the Spirit Awakening ceremony had been held during the day, which inevitably made Tang San think too much.

Is Little San waiting for that child Su Ming? Tang Hao, observing in secret, guessed what was on his son's mind.

He usually let Tang San roam freely.

There was no danger near Holy Soul Village, and Su Ming was usually around as well, so Tang Hao had always felt at ease.

But after Little San tested as having Innate Full Soul Power today and told him that he possessed Twin Martial Souls, Tang Hao decided to secretly protect him until he became a Soul Master and gained some ability to protect himself.

His child was a peerless genius. Nothing could be allowed to happen to him.

Besides being proud of his son, Tang Hao seemed to see a possibility for revenge against Spirit Hall.

Although that possibility was extremely slim, having it was enough!

At the very least, it gave him the motivation to keep moving forward!

Two Douluo in one family, with the Clear Sky Hammer, the number one Tool Martial Soul under heaven.

As long as they did not face the encirclement and slaughter of the Titled Douluo from Spirit Hall's Worship Hall, they could go anywhere in the world!

"Little San, judging by the look on your face, you must have been waiting anxiously."

Just then, Su Ming's voice rang out atop the small hill.

Hearing that familiar voice, Tang San quickly shook his head. "Not at all, Brother Ming. I only arrived a little while ago."

"It's just that there's something especially important I haven't told you yet, Brother Ming, so I seemed a little anxious."

Little San actually trusts Su Ming this much? Upon hearing his son's words, Tang Hao did not need to think to know that Tang San was about to reveal the enormous secret of his Twin Martial Souls.

He had just warned him during the day not to expose his Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul, yet now he was about to reveal it himself.

Tang Hao truly was worried at first. Once this secret was told to someone else, there was always a risk of it being leaked.

Twin Martial Souls—one Blue Silver Grass, the other the Clear Sky Hammer.

Spirit Hall would definitely notice something. Tang Hao did not want Little San to start wandering from place to place with him so early, fleeing pursuit.

He even considered taking certain measures, but when he thought of the relationship between Su Ming and Little San, he ultimately chose to wait and see.

Su Ming was Little San's only friend all these years.

If something really happened later, then he could act.

Feeling the Willpower harvested from Tang Hao, Su Ming smiled faintly and spoke, cutting Tang San off.

He planned to make a big play and continue harvesting Willpower.

Taking over the conversation, he said confidently, "If I'm not mistaken, Little San, you want to tell me that you actually have another Martial Soul, right?"

Though phrased as a question, his tone was filled with certainty.

"Brother Ming, how did you know what I wanted to say?" Tang San's face was full of disbelief.

From what he understood, examples of Twin Martial Souls were exceedingly rare in this world. Almost no one would guess in that direction.

That was precisely why Tang San was so shocked.

Tang Hao, hidden in the shadows, was also greatly surprised, then became curious.

Facing Tang San's confusion and feeling the rising Willpower within him, Su Ming explained calmly.

"Did you forget what I said this morning?

I come from Trinity Gate. The sect's ancient records encompass everything; there is nothing they do not contain."

"There are even several records concerning Twin Martial Souls, and I happened to have read them."

"Trinity Gate!" Tang San exclaimed.

A sect from another continent, Tang Hao silently supplied the rest.

The name Trinity Gate was unlikely to be fabricated. After all, Tang Hao had seen the jade pendant Su Ming carried with him.

As for why Su Ming knew such things?

Tang Hao guessed that they were recorded within that jade pendant.

But Tang Hao did not believe the claim that Su Ming came from another continent.

He believed it was merely an excuse used by this reclusive sect to avoid exposing itself.

As for Su Ming's claim of being the sect leader, Tang Hao simply took it as childish boasting.

"Twin Martial Souls are indeed exceedingly rare on the Douluo Continent. But on our Sun Moon Continent, there have been quite a few cases, and many records of research into them."

The continent he had fabricated was named after the already existing Sun Moon Continent.

He had discovered that creating a new continent, then creating the corresponding forces, required far too much Willpower.

A more cost-effective method was simply to alter the Sun Moon Continent directly.

That way, he saved the Willpower that would have been spent creating a continent.

Su Ming continued explaining at an unhurried pace. "Even if a Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul possesses Soul Power, it cannot possibly have Innate Full Soul Power. Unless that Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul is not an ordinary Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul!"

"Blue Silver Grass is the lowest-ranked plant in nature. Very few can even become soul beasts. But a scholar on the Sun Moon Continent once conducted detailed research on Blue Silver Grass and ultimately proposed the theory that Blue Silver Grass could evolve. Later, he discovered a Blue Silver King evolved from Blue Silver Grass in the wild!

"That Blue Silver King was a ten-thousand-year soul beast, yet its intelligence was no different from a human's. It could even speak human language. Fortunately, it had a gentle temperament and was impressed by the scholar's talent, becoming close friends with him. Some secrets concerning Blue Silver Grass were thus revealed..."

Su Ming had barely begun his explanation.

Tang Hao believed him completely, because he had only ever heard the name Blue Silver King once before—from Ah Yin.

Beyond that, no one on the entire Douluo Continent knew of it.

At that moment, he fully believed Su Ming's claim of coming from the Sun Moon Continent!

Tang San, meanwhile, was left somewhat overwhelmed by the sheer amount of information in just the opening.
