"Secondly, Blue Silver Grass's Vitality must not be neglected. Its Vitality must be continuously increased, turning it into a heavenly treasure."

Although many plants were edible, whether they tasted good and whether they were useful after being eaten were the keys to a Food System Spirit.

Otherwise, all plant-type Spirits could be eaten.

"Also, Blue Silver Grass should preferably be able to bear fruit or be eaten without affecting the Soul Master's own abilities."

What Xiao Lin meant was that Blue Silver Grass needed Soul Skills that allowed it to regenerate quickly after being damaged, or to produce seeds.

Because of this, Blue Silver Grass also had to possess powerful Vitality.

"Proper Food Soul Masters usually have Spirits that are summoned specifically for others to eat. Their Spirits do not have a main body, nor do they split off subsidiary bodies for people to consume."

Much less could they be summoned to attack like Tang San's Blue Silver Grass.

Therefore, if Tang San's Blue Silver Grass truly wanted the effects of a Food Soul Master, people would most likely have to eat Tang San's Spirit itself, rather than the Blue Silver Grass summoned by his Blue Silver Grass Spirit.

This was the most, most, most basic ability of a Food Soul Master.

If the food created by Food Soul Masters could be summoned as freely as Blue Silver Grass, Food Soul Masters would not be so rare—or rather, so scarce.

Tang San nodded in strong agreement. Everything Xiao Lin said made perfect sense; it was not baseless speculation.

"In that case, there's no problem with choosing a thousand-year-old Pom Pom Cotton Soul Beast for my next Soul Ring."

After thinking it over, Tang San instead became full of anticipation.

For now, this path of a Food Soul Master was no different from the path of a Vitality-support Soul Master he was already pursuing. Even if something went wrong, he could stop in time.

Xiao Lin nodded. "That's right. The Soul Rings I picked for you are all the most basic ones, the least likely to go wrong."

Then Xiao Lin raised three fingers. "Third, to become a Food Soul Master, you also need a Soul Incantation. It isn't something like shouting 'Blue Silver Regeneration Bracelet.'"

"I've studied some Food System Spirit Soul Masters. They must chant a Soul Incantation in order to create food."

"Perhaps extremely high-level Food Soul Masters do not need to chant one, but low-level Food Soul Masters definitely do."

"So, Little San, if you want the abilities of a Food Soul Master, it would be best if one of your Soul Rings required a Soul Incantation to activate."

"Only then might your path as a Food Soul Master work."

As soon as Xiao Lin finished speaking, Tang San immediately frowned and tilted his head, as though deep in thought.

"A Soul Incantation like, 'I have a strand of Blue Silver Grass'?"

Tang San looked at Xiao Lin and asked softly.

This kind of Soul Incantation felt so strange to him.

"Mm, something like that. In any case, this path may be very difficult. We must get as close as possible to every standard of a Food Soul Master."

Xiao Lin answered with utmost seriousness. Researching Spirits was never that simple.

"If you choose Soul Skills—or food—that can be released without a Soul Incantation, then the effect might be greatly reduced, right?"

Xiao Lin's matter-of-fact question made Tang San agree even more.

Soon, Tang San nodded, signaling for Xiao Lin to continue.

"Lastly, the most important point for a Food Soul Master is adaptability."

The moment Xiao Lin said this, curiosity rose in Tang San's eyes. Food Soul Masters needed adaptability too?

"Food Soul Masters and Food System Spirits actually possess extremely strong adaptability. This adaptability is second only to your Blue Silver Grass, Little San, so this last point is nothing to you."

Xiao Lin waved his hand. Blue Silver Grass's adaptability could be called the greatest in all of Douluo Continent.

It was precisely this adaptability that allowed Tang San of the Original Timeline to randomly absorb some useless poison-type Soul Rings, yet still eventually evolve his Blue Silver Grass into the Blue Silver Emperor.

The tolerance of Blue Silver Grass truly was exceptionally strong.

"Is that so?"

Seeing that Xiao Lin considered the most important point to be unimportant instead, Tang San did not continue asking.

He now understood Blue Silver Grass's adaptability very well.

Even around this extremely hot Blacksmith Shop, several stalks of Blue Silver Grass were stubbornly growing.

This powerful adaptability and Vitality made Tang San very curious whether the Blacksmith Shop here would one day be swallowed up and surrounded by Blue Silver Grass.

"Xiao Lin, explain it in greater detail."

Suddenly, a deep and vigorous voice reached Xiao Lin and Tang San's ears. Both turned around curiously.

Before them stood a tall, muscular middle-aged man dressed in a black robe.

"Uncle Hao?"

"Dad!"

Both Xiao Lin and Tang San were very curious. They had not seen Tang Hao for several days.

Xiao Lin had even thought Tang Hao had gone to find Tang San's mother and did not plan to return anymore—meaning he might only appear after Tang San graduated.

"Xiao Lin, tell me about the final condition for Blue Silver Grass to become a Food System Spirit?"

Tang Hao's rough face, covered in stubble, was also filled with curiosity.

As a Titled Douluo, Tang Hao naturally understood very well just how powerful Food Soul Masters could be.

And Tang San had the potential to become a Titled Douluo, even a Limit Douluo.

Once Tang San's Blue Silver Grass martial soul gained the effects of a Food Soul Master, the Clear Sky Sect could assemble a powerful army at any time and take revenge on Spirit Hall.

A Food System Titled Douluo... had one ever appeared in the history of the Douluo Continent?

Tang Hao was filled with curiosity and greatly anticipated Xiao Lin's theory. He had to hear the entire theory through before considering whether Tang San should try the Food System, or directly switch to cultivating as a Food Soul Master.

"Alright, then."

Xiao Lin spread his hands, looking as though he would explain since they wanted to hear it.

"The adaptability of a Food System Spirit lies not only in its ability to absorb almost any soul ring, but also in its ability to possess all kinds of seemingly impossible Soul Skills."

"For example, if a Food System Spirit were a bun, then absorbing an animal-type soul beast would turn it into a meat bun. If the soul ring came from a soul beast like the Great Strength Vajra Bull, it might gain Soul Skills such as Strength Amplification or defense amplification."

"For another example, if it absorbed the soul ring of a Plant-Type Soul Beast, such as Pom Pom Cotton, then it might become a vegetarian bun with healing abilities."

"Lastly, if it absorbed a soul beast like a Mirror Beast, it might awaken a Soul Skill that temporarily replicated a mirror-image martial soul. This mirror clone could come from any martial soul—it could be the Clear Sky Hammer, or the Evil Eye White Tiger and Hell Spirit Cat."

"It might even replicate part of the mirror-image Uncle Hao's strength."

"The former is an invincible Weapon Soul, while the latter is a powerful Martial Soul Fusion Skill. But the most outrageous possibility would be replicating part of a Titled Douluo's strength."

Xiao Lin's theory was derived from books he had read and successful examples from the original work. He believed his chances of success would be extremely high.

Hiss!

Xiao Lin's words made both Tang Hao and Tang San suck in a sharp breath.

Tang Hao fell silent, while Tang San was stunned!

Both of them were shocked by Xiao Lin's final example. Food System Spirits could already be stored for several days, or even a month at most.

If it was only called temporary replication, then what difference was there from possessing it forever?

Especially the Mirror Beast's Soul Skill, which replicated martial souls. If Tang San had such a Soul Skill, could he replicate the Clear Sky Hammer and let the other members of the Clear Sky Sect eat it?

Not everyone in the Clear Sky Sect awakened the Clear Sky Hammer. Beyond that, there were also the Four Great Clans under the Clear Sky Sect.

Tang Hao was already considering whether to subdue the Four Great Clans again and have Tang San absorb a Mirror Beast's soul ring.
