Background / History

Tang San awakened Blue Silver Grass as his first Martial Soul and possessed Innate Full Spirit Power. Though Blue Silver Grass was dismissed as a “Trash Spirit,” he remained focused on becoming a Spirit Master. Old Jack secured him a place at Nuoding Elementary Soul Master Academy; after initially refusing, Tang Hao allowed Tang San to leave three months later. 5 7

At Nuoding, Tang San and Bai Ge became work-study students and were accepted as disciples by Yu Xiaogang after the Master deduced that both possessed Twin Martial Souls. 11

Tang San later disclosed his second Martial Soul, a black hammer, to the Master. Under the Master's guidance, he chose to develop Blue Silver Grass into a control-oriented Martial Soul emphasizing toxicity, resilience, and offensive capability. 17 18

During a hunt with Bai Ge and the Master, Tang San absorbed the Spirit Ring of a hundred-year Mandala Snake. The absorption transformed his Blue Silver Grass and granted him his first Spirit Skill. 28 29

Martial Souls

• Blue Silver Grass — Tang San's primary Martial Soul; initially regarded as useless but cultivated as a control-type Spirit. 5 18
• Clear Sky Hammer / Haotian Hammer — His second Martial Soul, initially described as a black hammer. Its revelation shocks Titan and establishes a connection to the Clear Sky School and Tang San's father. 17 218 219

Abilities & Skills

Blue Silver Grass

Following the absorption of the Mandala Snake Spirit Ring, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass became thicker and more vine-like, with black patterns along its stems. It carries the Mandala Snake's poison, detectable through a faint tea-like scent. 28

• Increased toughness and resilience. 28 29
• Toxic properties inherited from the Mandala Snake. 28 29
• Used to bind and overpower Tailong after Tang San became a Soul Ancestor. 215
• Suited to battlefield control rather than direct assault. 18 116

Entangle

Tang San's first Spirit Skill rapidly extends multiple Blue Silver Grass strands to tightly bind a target. 28

• Wrapped around an arm-thick sapling almost instantly during its first demonstration. 28
• Benefits from the strengthened, poisonous Blue Silver Grass gained through the Mandala Snake Spirit Ring. 28 29

Clear Sky Hammer

• Tang San had kept the Martial Soul secret on the Master's advice and out of caution. 17

Relationships

• Tang Hao — Tang San's father; initially refused to let him attend Nuoding Academy because Tang San cooked for him and possessed Blue Silver Grass, but later relented. 7
• Old Jack — Elder who obtained Tang San's academy placement; Tang San treats him with respect and apologizes over his father's conduct. 7
• Yu Xiaogang (Master) — Tang San's teacher and mentor in Martial Soul development; recognizes his Twin Martial Souls and directs Blue Silver Grass toward control, toxicity, and resilience. 11 17 18
• Bai Ge — Fellow disciple and frequent companion; fought alongside Tang San against the Mandala Snake and later supported him during Titan's challenge. 11 28 218
• Xiao Wu — Dorm Seven's “big sister” after defeating Tang San in a spar; Tailong's pursuit of her leads Tang San to challenge him. 14 215
• Tailong — Xiao Wu's suitor and rival; Tang San defeats him after revealing his Soul Ancestor-level cultivation and using Blue Silver Grass. 215
