Tang Sect Disciple Mo Bai

Mo Bai, male, Tang Sect disciple.

A professional killer, he had operated overseas for years.

There was no helping it. There was too much surveillance in his own country, and being a killer there was no easy job.

Whenever he wanted to rest, Mo Bai would return home.

It was safe, after all. He basically did not have to worry about any danger!

This time, when he came back for a break, Mo Bai heard that Tang San, the protagonist of the anime "Soul Land" that had gone viral across the domestic internet, was actually also a Tang Sect disciple who had transmigrated there.

Curious, Mo Bai found it online and started watching.

At the very beginning of the anime, the male lead Tang San appeared.

Watching the other party's footwork, eyes, and Mystic Jade Hand, Mo Bai muttered under his breath.

"Purple Demon Eyes. Nice. Too bad my Tang Sect doesn't have that!"

"Same with Ghost Shadow Perplexing Steps, though we do have the similar Flower-Piercing Butterfly Steps!"

"Mystic Jade Hand is pretty similar to my Jade Hand. The function is about the same, but my Jade Hand carries deadly poison. Looks like my Jade Hand is stronger!"

"As for Hidden Weapon Technique and whatnot, I can't really see anything!"

"But that's only natural. After all, the people who made the anime don't understand it themselves!"

"Still, the movements do look pretty cool!"

As Mo Bai kept roasting it, he was gradually drawn in by the unfolding plot.

Perhaps because they were both members of the Tang Sect, Mo Bai found it very easy to immerse himself while watching.

Only when he saw Tang San choose to jump off the cliff did Mo Bai find it a little hard to accept. He was far too blindly loyal!

Still, it was barely acceptable. He kept watching!

"And that Wrath of the Buddha Tang Lotus, supposedly ranked first on the hidden weapon rankings? No matter how powerful a hidden weapon is, it's still a mechanism hidden weapon!"

"And no matter how powerful a mechanism hidden weapon is, it can't compare to a handgun. In my Tang Sect, mechanism hidden weapons were eliminated long ago!"

"And the Tang Sect's internal cultivation method—its strongest and hardest to master isn't some Mysterious Heaven Skill. It's the Jing Yu Secret that I practice!"

When he saw the flower-like Wrath of the Buddha Tang Lotus, Mo Bai started roasting again.

Mo Bai himself was a Tang Sect disciple, so when he saw something different from what he knew, he naturally defined it as fake, as fiction.

"So he's reincarnated into another world just like that..."

"As expected, my Jing Yu Secret is the authentic version. It has twelve levels in total, while this Mysterious Heaven Skill Tang San cultivates only has nine!"

Mo Bai continued roasting as he kept watching.

Mo Bai skipped straight past everything that happened in Holy Soul Village. There was nothing interesting to watch, and nothing worth roasting.

He did notice, however, that the protagonist Tang San's father was far from simple.

It was not until the spirit awakening appeared that Mo Bai's eyes lit up again.

"This spirit is cool. It even comes with its own special effects!"

"What will Tang San's spirit be?"

"Blue Silver Grass?"

"That's a decent spirit!"

"The highest realm of martial arts, 'flying flowers and plucked leaves can all injure people, grass, wood, bamboo, and stone can all become swords!'—the flying flowers and plucked leaves are referring to hidden weapons!"

"With Blue Silver Grass as his spirit, it's practically tailor-made for Tang San!"

"When he fights, Tang San will have as many hidden weapons as he wants!"

When he saw that Tang San's awakened spirit was Blue Silver Grass, and that it was even defined as a trash spirit...

Mo Bai could already foresee it.

The later development of this anime would definitely be the protagonist Tang San using the Hidden Weapon Technique from his previous life to wield the Blue Silver Grass everyone thought was a trash spirit with miraculous mastery, crushing geniuses from every side. A proper trash-to-peak counterattack story!

But when he saw Tang San arrive at Notting Academy and decide to take Grandmaster as his teacher just because Grandmaster's guess was correct, Mo Bai was speechless.

"Your Innate Full Soul Power—didn't you get that through cultivating the Mysterious Heaven Skill yourself? What does that have to do with Twin Spirits?"

"You got fooled just like that?"

"And he already said you don't need to kneel, yet you still insist on some 'a teacher for a day is a father for life.' My god, are you just looking for dads for yourself?"

"Such ignorant, backward thinking. This kind of talk and mindset was eliminated from our Tang Sect long ago!"

"A teacher can be respected, and if they're a good teacher, they deserve even more respect. But you can't go recognizing them as your father!"

"And if you run into a bad teacher, respect my ass!"

As the plot unfolded, there was even more for Mo Bai to roast.

However, considering that Grandmaster did indeed seem knowledgeable, Mo Bai endured it. Being able to quickly learn knowledge from another world through Grandmaster was still very important!

Everyone knew that knowledge changed destiny.

"Taking the control system route?"

"No way, right? That can't be right."

"Grandmaster doesn't know Tang San's situation. He doesn't know Tang San can use hidden weapons, so it's not wrong for him to suggest that Tang San take the control system route!"

"But Tang San, what the hell are you agreeing for? You're even thinking that from now on, hidden weapons will be hitting fixed targets?"

"My god, as a member of the Tang Sect, why would you be afraid of moving targets?"

"If you can control the enemy, you would've already used hidden weapons to finish them off first!"

As he continued watching, Mo Bai found it a little hard to keep going.

He had thought the protagonist Tang San would use hidden weapons together with his trash spirit to counterattack and beat everything down!

Fine, Blue Silver Grass taking the control system route could also count as hidden weapons working together with a spirit, but it was completely different from what he had imagined!

Tang San's performance in particular seemed truly foolish to him.

Especially the scene where he became a disciple. He even performed the ancient disciple ceremony and sincerely treated the other party as his master. He clearly had the soul of an adult, yet he kept finding dads for himself!

It looked very sincere, but Mo Bai only found it ignorant.

You just met him. Do you freaking understand that Grandmaster already?

"Forget it, I'm not watching anymore. Blue Silver Grass actually takes the control system route? What a waste of the Tang Sect disciple setup!"

The more he watched, the more boring it became, so Mo Bai simply dropped the show.

If he had not been a Tang Sect disciple, perhaps he could have kept watching.

But as a fellow Tang Sect disciple, he truly could not watch any further.

Smack~

He shut off the computer. He was done watching.

Wasn't sleeping better?

"Mm~"

The next day, Mo Bai had only just awakened when his entire mind jolted.

Something was wrong. He felt that something was wrong with his whole body.

"Where did my Inner Force go? And what the hell is this weakness all over my body?"

In a wave of panic, Mo Bai opened his eyes.

Everything that entered his sight made him freeze in shock.

"Where is this?"

How could the scene before him still be his luxury presidential suite?

It was clearly a shabby mud-brick house.
