Background / History

Tang San is a thirty-year-old man reborn into the body of a five- or six-year-old boy near Holy Spirit Village. His Mysterious Heaven Skill stalls at its first bottleneck, then begins losing internal energy after he puts on a mysterious ring. Rather than abandon cultivation, he considers cutting off his own finger to remove the ring and vows revenge against whoever harmed him. 1

The ring reveals a phantom woman who knows of his Tang Sect past and offers alchemical assistance. Tang San accepts her as both teacher and adoptive mother after she restores part of his internal energy. Her guidance becomes central to his cultivation, including the theft of Yu Xiaogang's spatial belt for pill refinement. 2 3 16

After awakening Blue Silver Grass and the Clear Sky Hammer as Twin Martial Souls, Tang San becomes Yu Xiaogang's disciple. He publicly follows Yu Xiaogang's advice, including accepting low-quality Soul Rings, though these decisions later leave him with a white-white-yellow configuration that he blames on his teacher. 8 24 195

At Shrek Academy, Tang San is chosen as the team's captain because of his control abilities. He competes in the Great Soul Arena, forms a doubles team with Ma Hongjun, and develops his battlefield role around restraining opponents for allies to attack. 40 68 77

After losing both arms, Tang San adapts by manifesting Blue Silver Grass through his feet. He later leaves Shrek with Yu Xiaogang, travels through Wild Dog Town, and enters the Tian family's Martial Arts Tournament for Marriage. 86 132 153 165

Tang San's relationship with Yu Xiaogang ultimately collapses. He attempts to trade Yu Xiaogang to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for leniency, while Yu Xiaogang exposes Tang San's parentage and Twin Martial Souls to the sect's elders. 193 195

Following Yu Xiaogang's death and Tang Hao's death at the Golden Sacred Dragon's hands, Tang San survives through his adoptive mother's intervention. He later confronts Zhao Wuji while claiming Soul Douluo-level strength, before dying sometime afterward. 210 211 212 214

Appearance

Tang San is initially a small child with a mature mind, later described as handsome and dashing even after losing both arms. He has long, slightly blue hair and unusually small feet, which become necessary for manifesting his Martial Souls after his injury. 1 76 86 169

• Wears a flashy blue, tight-fitting outfit at Shrek Academy. 49
• Temporarily receives a conspicuous bald strip after his first arena match. 74 76
• Removes his shoes and socks before using Blue Silver Grass through his feet. 86 113
• Can create Soul Power arms, but maintaining them consumes Soul Power and they are poorly suited to wielding the heavy Clear Sky Hammer. 113

Personality

Tang San is intensely proud of his talent, rebirth, Twin Martial Souls, and future potential. He repeatedly imagines himself becoming an unmatched powerhouse, a Sea God, or ruler of the world. His confidence often becomes arrogance, particularly after acquiring greater power. 1 4 40 212

He is also resilient and adaptable. He endures injury, poison exposure, poverty, and the loss of both arms without giving up cultivation; after becoming armless, he learns to fight and manage daily life with his feet. 27 86 147

Despite presenting himself as loyal, respectful, and “pure and untainted,” Tang San is willing to steal, manipulate others, fabricate stories, and betray Yu Xiaogang when he believes it benefits him. 16 164 193 194

• Delivers powerful downward or sweeping attacks. 42
• Can be manifested through Tang San's feet after he loses his arms. 86

• Provides offensive power that Blue Silver Entanglement lacks. 165
• Requires Tang San to mobilize his Soul Power and focus on his dantian. 165

Clear Sky Hammer: Strength Enhancement

• Xiao Wu — classmate and romantic interest. Tang San vows to protect her and is strongly affected when she rejects his proposed arena partnership. 33 40 68
