Tang San's Shock

"How impressive!"

"That really seems to be a Spirit Skill, not just random throwing!"

"Mo Bai is incredible! He actually created a Spirit Skill of his own!"

"Yeah, I heard his First Spirit Skill was useless, with damage as weak as a scratch!"

"I never expected the Spirit Skill he created himself to look pretty good!"

"..."

The students around them all cried out in amazement at Mo Bai's performance.

"So impressive! If his Spirit Skill wasn't good enough, he just created one himself!"

"Mo Bai's First Spirit Skill is a group attack, so its Soul Power gets dispersed and its damage is limited. But by plucking Blue Silver Grass leaves directly, the damage is actually enough!"

Xiao Wu, surrounded by the crowd and occupying the best viewing spot, cheered as well.

She had seen Mo Bai's First Spirit Skill before!

"Yeah, it's very impressive!"

Hearing Xiao Wu's words, Tang San echoed her.

To be honest, Tang San was far more shocked inside than he showed.

Mo Bai's idea of using Blue Silver Grass as hidden weapons had greatly stirred him.

He had never imagined that Blue Silver Grass could be used as hidden weapons.

If Mo Bai could do it, then surely he could too. Had he chosen the wrong path for its development?

For a moment, Tang San doubted himself.

But Tang San soon decided that his choice had not been wrong.

Because he believed that hidden weapons forged from refined iron or other materials were stronger, while Blue Silver Grass could only serve as ordinary hidden weapons.

The hidden weapons he forged himself, however, could incorporate all kinds of mechanisms and techniques, making them far more lethal!

In short, Tang San preferred mechanical hidden weapons.

And using his Blue Silver Grass martial soul as hidden weapons would never bring out the effects of mechanical hidden weapons!

Besides, even if he did not use Blue Silver Grass as hidden weapons, he still had hidden weapons. But if he developed Blue Silver Grass as hidden weapons instead, would that not mean giving up its control abilities?

Therefore, Tang San did not conclude that his Blue Silver Grass had been developed in the wrong direction just because he saw Mo Bai using it as hidden weapons.

Then, Tang San was astonished that Mo Bai had actually created a technique similar to hidden weapon techniques.

He could tell that although Mo Bai's technique was still rather immature, it was already far superior to the throwing skills of ordinary people.

He was a natural hidden weapon genius!

After realizing this, Tang San could not help feeling an urge to recruit Mo Bai into the Tang Sect and teach him true Hidden Weapon Techniques.

With a hidden weapon genius like Mo Bai, he would surely be able to help Tang San expand the Tang Sect in this foreign world even better.

But as soon as that thought arose, the image of Mo Bai leaving together with Xiao Wu last time surfaced in Tang San's mind.

As well as how, over the past year or so, Xiao Wu had clearly been much closer to Mo Bai than to him.

The moment those thoughts appeared, Tang San instinctively resisted recruiting Mo Bai.

Then he remembered that Mo Bai was clearly a Twin Martial Souls wielder, yet had concealed it instead of telling anyone.

Such a person simply did not trust others.

Right, someone like that was not suited to joining his Tang Sect!

At that thought, Tang San finally relaxed. He was no longer excited. This Mo Bai was not suitable for his Tang Sect.

"So Mo Bai had been hiding this up his sleeve!"

"By plucking the Blue Silver Grass leaves and using them directly, his Soul Power won't be dispersed. Although they still can't compare to ordinary swords and blades, combined with Mo Bai's technique, they truly possess a certain degree of combat power!"

Seeing Mo Bai's performance, the Dean was also greatly surprised.

But more than surprise, he felt delight.

He had originally thought Mo Bai's choice of First Spirit Ring had been a waste, but now it seemed that it had not been wasted at all!

"Master, it seems that apart from the Control System and healing system, Blue Silver Grass can also follow the path of a Battle Spirit Master!"

Then, the Dean could not help turning to Master with a smile.

It was not easy to catch Master making a misjudgment!

"Cough, cough..."

Master's face flushed slightly as he stood to the side.

He was indeed somewhat embarrassed.

The facts were right before him. He could not possibly claim that Mo Bai was not a qualified Battle Spirit Master.

"That really was something I hadn't expected, but..."

Master first acknowledged his mistake, but he still added, "But I still don't think Blue Silver Grass is suited to the Battle Spirit Master path. Blue Silver Grass isn't a weapon-type Martial Soul, after all. Forcing it to be used as a weapon, its strength definitely cannot compare to that of a weapon-type Battle Spirit Master of the same level!"

"You can see it from how all of Mo Bai's attacks were easily blocked by Teacher Mo Na's short dagger Martial Soul!"

"The reason Teacher Mo Na looked so disheveled was because it was his first time encountering Mo Bai's style of attack. If he faced a Spirit Master who had adapted to Mo Bai's attack style, the outcome would be different!"

"Or if Teacher Mo Na had charged straight in from the start, even at the cost of taking injuries, he could have defeated Mo Bai quickly. Mo Bai's Blue Silver Grass leaves have limited killing power!"

In short, Master still did not think highly of Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul taking the direct assault path.

"What you said... makes sense!"

"But I've already said it, and it looks like Teacher Mo Na's defeat is only a matter of time. It wouldn't be right for me to ask Mo Bai to change his mind now!"

"How about you try persuading him, Master?"

Upon hearing Master's words, the Dean's previously smug expression instantly fell, because he felt that Master was right.

"Me?"

Hearing the Dean's request, Master's expression immediately turned hesitant. He did not want to guide Mo Bai. It was fine for him to analyze things for the Dean, but he was unwilling to personally offer Mo Bai guidance.

After all, Mo Bai had refused to take him as his teacher!

That was right. In Master's view, Mo Bai had rejected becoming his disciple back then on the grounds of hiding his Twin Martial Souls!

Still, he could not easily refuse the Dean's request.

"...I'll give it a try, then. I can't guarantee it'll work!"

In the end, Master sighed, feeling that he should not disregard the Dean's dignity.

Pfft~

Meanwhile, in the arena, Teacher Mo Na, who had yet to adapt to Mo Bai's attacks and was eager to get close to him, finally slipped up and failed to defend himself properly. One of Mo Bai's leaves struck him—hitting his right leg.

With his leg injured, Teacher Mo Na found it even harder to evade Mo Bai's attacks in the battle that followed.

"Stop... I concede!"

Before long, realizing that he had no way of getting close to Mo Bai, Teacher Mo Na reluctantly chose to surrender.

He truly felt that his defeat was unbearably stifling. He had strength to spare, yet nowhere to use it.

He felt that he should have charged through Mo Bai's attacks from the very beginning. Even if he had been injured, he could have defeated Mo Bai.

But later on, his Soul Power was no longer sufficient to let him recklessly charge forward, so he could only concede in frustration.

"Wow~"

"He won! Mo Bai actually defeated Teacher Mo Na!"

"So amazing!"

"Mo Bai, you're so handsome!"

"Mo Bai, I like you!"

"Mo Bai, I want to be your girlfriend!"

"..."

The students all cheered for Mo Bai's performance. Some of the bolder girls in the academy even confessed directly to him.

Xiao Wu, who had also been happy at first, immediately saw her expression change slightly upon hearing those words.
