Background

Tang San arrived in the world of Martial Souls with knowledge from a previous life and continued practicing the Tang Sect's Mysterious Heaven Skill. Even as a child, he recognized that Tang Jiu's natural strength greatly exceeded his own. 1

At the Holy Spirit Village awakening ceremony, Tang San manifested Blue Silver Grass and demonstrated Innate Full Soul Power. His second Martial Soul was later identified as the Clear Sky Hammer, making him a Twin Martial Soul user. 2 11

Tang Hao is Tang San's biological father. Tang San's mother was the Blue Silver Emperor, a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast whose bloodline accounts for his exceptional innate talent. 430 516

Under Yu Xiaogang's guidance, Tang San developed his Blue Silver Grass, Tang Sect techniques, and hidden weapons. He later joined Shrek Academy, where his tactical ability and Twin Martial Souls established him as a central combatant of the Shrek team. 11 147

Personality

Tang San is observant and inquisitive. As a child, he immediately noticed Su Yuntao's enhanced hearing and sought to understand the principles behind Innate Full Soul Power and Martial Souls. 2

He is intensely loyal to people he considers family. His determination to rescue Xiao Wu drives him to confront opponents far beyond his level, including Dragon Duke Meng Shu and the Clear Sky Sect elders. 103 212

Tang San's need to protect his loved ones often becomes a pursuit of overwhelming strength. After repeated losses and humiliation, he embraces the belief that strength determines one's ability to control fate, while privately seeking power beyond even the deities controlling him. 430 487
