Yu Xiaogang's plan to poach Tang San's talent was meticulous. Tai Tan had a good relationship with the three people led by Yang Wudi, but he overlooked the fact that Tang San was Tang and his Martial Soul was the Clear Sky Hammer.
If Tang Hao hadn't been so reckless back then, thinking that leaving the sect would cause the Spirit Hall to shift its focus, the Spirit Hall would have ended up targeting the Clear Sky Sect anyway.
The Four Great Clans were also affected by this, and countless outstanding disciples died in the entanglement between the Clear Sky Sect and the Spirit Hall.
From that moment on, the Four Great Clans harbored resentment towards the Clear Sky Sect, especially since Tang San was Tang Hao's son.
It's understandable that you, Tai Tan, call Tang Hao your master and want to risk your life for him.
However, Yang Wudi and the others did not have a master named Tang Hao, and it was impossible for them to abandon their vast sect and choose to start from scratch.
After the incident with the Clear Sky Sect, Yang Wudi, Niu Gao, and Bai He only wanted to ensure that the clan members could live a peaceful life and no longer wanted to get involved in any power struggles.
Of course, they are not easy to bully. If anyone dares to bully them, not to mention Dugu Bo's Jade Phosphor Serpent Emperor Poison, Yang Wudi's strength as the number one person below the Titled Douluo is enough to give those people a hard time.
One month before the All-Continent Advanced Spirit Master Elite Tournament, teams from various participating academies began to gather in Heaven Dou City.
As the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Qinghe shoulders important responsibilities. Since Qian Renxue is busy taking care of the children at home, Ye Tianxing, disguised as Xue Qinghe, went straight to the Shrek Academy after leaving Godwind Academy, just like usual.
Going to the Shrek Academy with Ye Ping'an's face would be asking for trouble, but Xue Qinghe's identity is extraordinary.
Upon hearing that Crown Prince Xue Qinghe was coming, Flender, Liu Erlong, Yu Xiaogang, all the academy teachers, Tang San, Dai Mubai and other participating students assembled and lined up at the academy gate to welcome His Royal Highness the Crown Prince.
"Dean Flender, I've heard so much about you." Ye Tianxing smiled gently. He was now Xue Qinghe, and with this face, he was extremely popular wherever he went.
" Your His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, you've finally arrived. Let me introduce you. This is..." Flender smiled obsequiously, then introduced everyone present to Ye Tianxing one by one.
Ye Tianxing smiled throughout, showing no displeasure whatsoever, and patiently listened to Flender finish speaking. This made the latter feel gratified, as Shrek Academy could be considered to have been recognized by the Heaven Dou Empire.
"This must be the Grandmaster. I've heard that you are very knowledgeable and have even proposed the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul. It's a pity that the people of the Spirit Hall have let your talents go to waste and failed to recognize your Grandmaster. We should have a good chat sometime."
Ye Tianxing's insincere praise made Yu Xiaogang feel like she was floating on air, almost forgetting herself.
Yu Xiaogang was deeply hurt by Ye Ping'an's words and had been subjected to a lot of disdain from others since birth. Now, she was receiving praise from His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, which made her feel much better and more enlightened.
" Your His Royal Highness the Crown Prince is too kind. I will definitely lead the Shrek Academy Team to victory in this competition!" Yu Xiaogang's smile was harder to suppress than AK's. It felt so good to be valued.
Ye Tianxing nodded, then had someone bring out a stack of books and handed them to Yu Xiaogang, saying, "These are all Spirit Master cultivation manuals that my Heaven Dou Imperial Family has treasured for a long time. Among them are many Martial Soul that appeared a thousand years ago, as well as Spirit Master cultivation methods that have disappeared for many years. Now there is only one month left before the competition, and I hope these things will be of help to you."
Yu Xiaogang to have found a treasure and quickly accepted it, stroking it with great affection. As Grandmaster of theory, these materials were priceless to him.
Before leaving, Ye Tianxing leaned close to Yu Xiaogang and whispered, "He who obtains the Grandmaster obtains the world. These are my Father Emperor's words. I am telling you this now. Please don't let me and the Heaven Dou Empire down. I'm entrusting this year's championship to you."
To ensure the plan went smoothly, before arriving at the Shrek Academy, Ye Tianxing specifically told the Emperor about Tang San's secret of Twin Martial Souls, and how Yu Xiaogang was unappreciated despite her talents.
Upon hearing this, Xue Ye could no longer sit still. In this Heaven Dou City, his own little territory actually had a genius with Twin Martial Souls. You must know that the last Twin Martial Souls, Ye Tianxing, had severed the arm of Sword Douluo.
Most importantly, Tang San is actually the son of Haotian Douluo Tang Hao. Although Yu Xiaogang has recently had a bad reputation, the fact that Tang Hao chose her to be Tang San's teacher suggests that she might actually have some ability.
"He who obtains the Grandmaster obtains the world," came smoothly from Ye Tianxing's mouth, and then Xue Ye silently repeated it again.
Ye Tianxing led his group away, and Flender watched them go before noticing that Yu Xiaogang had been in high spirits ever since, as if she had been injected with chicken blood.
Before anyone else could leave, Yu Xiaogang grabbed the stack of Spirit Master cultivation manuals and rushed off.
"Look how happy he is! What did His Royal Highness the Crown Prince say to Xiao Gang just now? Why is he so excited?" Flender was full of doubts, based on his understanding of Yu Xiaogang.
Yu Xiaogang was so excited as she carried the books to study them, it's likely that the contents of those books will soon become part of the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul.
It's just a pity for those books, as their authors are about to be changed.
Just as Flender had suspected, Yu Xiaogang had locked herself in her room and was carefully flipping through books, gaining a lot of useful Spirit Master knowledge, the kind he had never heard of before.
"The upper limit of Spirit Master's ability to absorb Spirit Ring is closely related to their physical condition and environment. They can often absorb Spirit Ring that exceed their own lifespan."
Yu Xiaogang stroked his rough chin and nodded seriously. "It's useful. I'll make a note of it for now; it will definitely be needed when it's published in the future."
"A different kind of meditation practice..."
"A comprehensive review of Plant-type Martial Soul: Blue Silver Grass is not Trash Martial Soul. There was once a person who made ordinary Blue Silver Grass into Soul Saint and became famous in the Douluo Continent."
Yu Xiaogang looked on with a similarly solemn expression and couldn't help but sigh, "My disciple is good in every way, but this Blue Silver Grass is simply not a good match. The Clear Sky Hammer is the number one Tool Martial Soul in the world, while the Blue Silver Grass is the representative of Trash Martial Soul. How can these two be combined?"
If the full score is 100, then Yu Xiaogang only gave his apprentice 99 points, and the reason for the last point was due to the Blue Silver Grass.
The secret of Twin Martial Souls has remained unsolved despite Yu Xiaogang's years of research, and the cultivation method of Twin Martial Souls is something Yu Xiaogang is extremely eager to know.
"Cultivation method for Twin Martial Souls..."
Just as Yu Xiaogang was about to turn the page to the next one, her eyes suddenly stopped moving.
" Twin Martial Souls are two souls that exist on top of one Martial Soul, each with its own unique cultivation method..."
Yu Xiaogang's breathing was heavy. He hadn't expected such a pleasant surprise today. His eyes widened, and he dared not miss a single word.
"A thousand years ago, a person with Twin Martial Souls would cultivate one of their Spirit Ring to four rings before adding three Spirit Ring to their other Martial Soul. Note that the Spirit Ring of the Second Martial Soul could never be higher than those of the First Martial Soul. This process was repeated until the person had nine Spirit Ring, at which point they would become Titled Douluo with Twin Martial Souls!"
At that moment Yu Xiaogang could no longer care about anything else and hurriedly called Tang San over.
Full of doubts, Tang San was also attracted by the cultivation method written in the book from a thousand years ago after seeing the cultivation method of Twin Martial Souls.
"Cultivate the First Martial Soul to the fourth ring, then apply it to the Second Martial Soul to the third ring level, and continue cultivating in this way..."
Tang San asked, "Teacher, is this reliable?"
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang became serious and said, "This is a treasure of the Heaven Dou Imperial Family. Even the Upper Three Sects and the Spirit Hall might not be able to produce it. Moreover, the book records the cultivation method of Twin Martial Souls from a thousand years ago. The Heaven Dou Imperial Family doesn't know that you have Twin Martial Souls, so how could it be fake?"
"But Dad said I shouldn't add Spirit Ring to my Second Martial Soul." Tang San still had reservations. After all, with his mother gone, his father was the most important person.
You should listen to your father.
Yu Xiaogang was displeased and quickly said, " Tang San, it is said that the participants in this competition are full of hidden talents, including many experts. Moreover, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just told me that this year's finals will be held at the Spirit Hall, and all the participants from the Spirit Hall are Soul King."
"What!" Tang San was stunned. The Spirit Hall was a team of all Soul King. How could they possibly let the other academies win?
"This competition is crucial for the Shrek Academy. For the honor of the academy, and for the humiliation suffered by our teachers, we must win!" Yu Xiaogang said excitedly.
This competition is really important to him. After all, His Majesty the Emperor said that whoever obtains the Grandmaster will rule the world. This is something that the ruler of a country values highly. Yu Xiaogang is determined to win the championship of this competition.
In this way, people like Ye Ping'an will no longer dare to humiliate him, and Yu Xiaogang can also use this opportunity to fight back and bring down Ye Ping'an.
These words had a profound impact on Tang San. On the day he saw his teacher kneeling before Ye Ping'an, bowing and kowtowing with each step, Tang San was deeply moved.
Tang San wouldn't blame his aunt for his teacher being humiliated, even kneeling in front of the Moonlight Pavilion for his sake, because it was all for his sake, and it was truly not easy for her to make a trip to the Clear Sky Sect.
Winning the championship would make the Heaven Dou Empire value Shrek Academy, thus washing away the humiliation suffered by the teacher, and Ye Ping'an would no longer be able to insult the teacher at will.
With this two-birds-with-one-stone strategy, Tang San looked at the white hair growing on his teacher's head and immediately made up his mind.
Tang San said, "Teacher, I've decided to give it a try!"
Yu Xiaogang nodded heavily. "Okay! Don't let anyone else know about this. This is a little secret between us, master and disciple. We'll give your father and everyone a surprise on the day the competition starts!"
That night, Tang San and his apprentice Yu Xiaogang set off without anyone noticing, perfectly replicating their trip to the Soul Hunting Forest years ago.
Within Heaven Dou City, at Qian Renxue's residence.
After Ye Tianxing Tianxing's people at the Shrek Academy reported that the master and apprentice had gone to Sunset Forest, they burst out laughing.
"You actually believed what I Yu Xiaogang up! He who has the Grandmaster has the world. If you really believe it, the world will probably be gone."
"Hahaha!!!"
Ye Tianxing laughed until his stomach hurt. Yu Xiaogang had gone all out for this competition, even risking her disciple's future.
"I really want Tang Hao to know that his son's Twin Martial Souls are about to be destroyed."
At this moment, Tang Hao was drinking at the Moonlight Pavilion, while Tang Yuehua was looking at Tang Hao with annoyance.
"Second Brother, how come Tang San and Yu Xiaogang are getting closer and closer? Aren't you afraid that Yu Xiaogang will lead Tang San astray if this continues?" Tang Yuehua's worries were not without reason.
"Don't worry! He wouldn't dare!" Tang Hao took a sip of wine and fell asleep immediately.
