"No, I was just looking around."

Tang San frowned when he heard that. He hadn't expected this guy to be so unwilling to give up, shamelessly sticking to him. He said coolly,

"The fight between you and Xiao Chenyu's group—I watched it."

"Based on my theoretical research on Martial Souls over the years, your Blue Silver Grass is mutated. That is also why it gave you Innate Full Soul Power."

"And I happen to know quite a bit about Blue Silver Grass and how to develop and cultivate it. Would you like to hear it?"

The corner of Tang San's mouth curled up slightly, revealing an amused, mocking expression. "Sure. Go ahead."

"Was that Entangling ability you used just now something you created yourself?" Yu Xiaogang first confirmed this question.

"That's right." Tang San nodded without concealing it.

"Good."

"In my research, Blue Silver Grass is the most useless and fragile Martial Soul in this world. Even if you possess a mutation and have Innate Full Soul Power, it will be extremely difficult for you to go far in the future. Its development and future application will determine how far you can go. Given your circumstances, I believe Three-Ring Soul Elder is already your limit."

"In my theoretical research, Plant Spirits are fragile, but they can attach themselves to powerful Beast Spirit Beasts. Therefore, I suggest you take the control-type path. For your First Soul Ring, absorb an Animal Spirit Beast to strengthen the toughness of your Blue Silver Grass. It would be best if it carried potent venom as well. That way, you will not only gain toughness and poison, but your control over opponents will become twice as effective with half the effort."

"Today, you may have defeated Xiao Chenyu and the other one through Entangling and your mutation, but that was only because their Martial Souls were low-grade and insignificant. Their Soul Rings were only a few decades old, not even Hundred-Year rings, so naturally their power was weak. In other words, you were lucky. If you go outside and encounter other powerful Martial Souls, your Mutated Blue Silver Grass will hold no advantage whatsoever."

"Well? What do you think of my theory?"

"I happen to be short one disciple. If you are willing to take me as your master, I will teach you everything I know. Together, we will focus on cultivating and developing your Mutated Blue Silver Grass, allowing you to possess the potential to step into the ranks of a Titled Douluo in the future!"

Yu Xiaogang assumed the air of a profound scholar, clasping his hands behind his back as he spoke in a steady tone.

But in Tang San's eyes, this guy was plainly trying to fool him.

He was not the naïve fool from the Original Work, who would be talked into becoming someone's disciple just by hearing a few principles that any slightly higher-level Soul Master understood.

There was even less chance that he would kneel on both knees and kowtow to this guy.

When he read the Original Work, he had wondered whether Tang San had something wrong with his head.

No matter what, he had been a Tang Sect Disciple in his previous life. How could he take a master without considering the circumstances?

Of course, perhaps Tang Jia San Shao had temporarily lowered his intelligence.

But the experiences that followed were enough to prove that Yu Xiaogang had been completely and absurdly wrong.

Unfortunately, the Tang San of the Original Work had been far too old-fashioned in his thinking.

He was simply beyond saving.

Blue Silver Grass and the Clear Sky Hammer.

They were fundamentally unsuited for the Sea God God Position and the Asura God God Position.

Blue Silver Grass should follow the path of Extreme Life and become the God of Life.

The Clear Sky Hammer should follow the path of Extreme Destruction and become the God of Destruction.

As long as he focused on these two paths, Tang San's protagonist's halo would surely attract the attention of the Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction. They would grant him God Tests, allowing him to achieve Dual God Positions in One Body.

One had to know that after the Goddess of Life and the God of Destruction fused, they could summon the descending phantom of the Creation God.

That was Level Two Hundred, the true ceiling of this world.

Before it, the Asura God was merely an ant that could be obliterated with a wave of its hand.

Even if it was only a phantom and not the true body, it was absolutely not an existence that the Asura God and Sea God could compare themselves to.

Moreover, in his eyes, Life and Destruction were far stronger than Asura.

Tang Jia San Shao's brain in the Original Work must have short-circuited.

Of course, Tang San's ignorance of these matters was also part of the reason.

But since he had transmigrated in this life and replaced the original Tang San, he naturally could not follow the Original Work again.

He had to forge a divine path that truly belonged to his own Martial Souls.

He would thoroughly bring out every advantage of his Martial Souls!

Hearing Yu Xiaogang's so-called grand principles, Tang San sneered inwardly and looked down on him.

He said indifferently, "Sorry, but I have no intention of taking a master. I understand the development of my own Blue Silver Grass better than you do."

Absorb Animal Spirit Beasts?

And poisonous ones at that?

Go eat shit.

A plant was ultimately a plant. While it could indeed successfully absorb an Animal Spirit Beast, it could never perfectly inherit all of its power.

A Plant Spirit should absorb plants.

And Blue Silver Grass possessed such vigorous and tenacious Life Force, yet as a Theory Master, he did not even know that. As expected, he was a half-baked fraud who only knew how to freeload.

Absorb poison and take the control-type path?

That was purely misleading disciples.

Even if it were not Blue Silver Grass, as long as it was a plant-related Martial Soul, it should directly follow the path of Life Rank Ascension.

Plants were inherently extraordinarily tenacious. As long as their roots, stems, spores, or seeds remained, they could be reborn.

It was only a matter of time.

And what did Animal Spirit Beasts have?

Once they were killed, they were truly dead. They could not be reborn at all.

Of course, that was under normal circumstances. If some cheat interfered, that would be another matter.

"Fine, then tell me. How do you intend to develop and cultivate your Blue Silver Grass?"

Yu Xiaogang frowned, displeasure appearing on his face as he spoke.

Why was this brat so impervious to persuasion?

He wanted to see what useful knowledge this kid could possibly come up with.

He refused to believe that a commoner from some tiny village could know more than him.

His title as the Continent's Number One Theoretical Master had not come for nothing.

"That is my secret. There is no need to tell you." Tang San said calmly.

Suddenly, Tang San asked with a teasing, amused expression, "By the way, since your theoretical knowledge is so impressive, what do you think about Martial Souls and Soul Masters?"

"You..."

"Of course, there are no useless Martial Souls, only useless Soul Masters!"

Yu Xiaogang became even more displeased and blurted it out.

Yu Xiaogang had answered, which was exactly what Tang San wanted. He had walked right into the trap.

Tang San's amusement deepened. "Is that so? Then I heard that Master, your Martial Soul is a pig that only knows how to fart. And you are already over forty, right? Yet your Soul Power is only Level Twenty-Nine, and you will never break through Level Thirty in your lifetime. Since your theoretical knowledge is so impressive and you are so skilled at developing Martial Souls, why can't you develop and cultivate your own Martial Soul, allowing your Soul Power Level to break through? If you really are so capable, why are you still holed up in tiny Nuoding City, freeloading in an academy and satisfying yourself with grand speeches and theories? No useless Martial Souls, only useless Soul Masters? Aren't you describing yourself?"

"How do you even have the nerve to say that?"

"Is your skin really that thick?"

"Are you truly stupid, or just pretending to be stupid?"

"Huh? Answer me!"

"This is the so-called Continent's Number One Theoretical Master!?"

"From what I understand, you took in several students before, didn't you? They seem to have never appeared again. I think they probably died after becoming test subjects for your theories!?"

"You just want to use me as an Experimental Subject to verify your bullshit theoretical knowledge!"

"What kind of Continent's Number One Theoretical Master are you!?"

"You're a fraud!"

"Huh! Answer me! Why aren't you speaking? Speechless? Did I hit the mark!?"

"Trash like you thinks you deserve to be my teacher? You even have the nerve to ask me to take you as my master? How did you have the nerve to say that? Did you see that I came from the countryside and think I would be easy to fool?"

"I could casually find a Soul Master stronger than you, and he would be more reliable than you!"

"Yu Xiaogang, you are a useless piece of trash who misleads disciples and only knows how to freeload!"

"You are good for nothing!!"

Tang San stretched out his hand, pointed at Yu Xiaogang, and unleashed a barrage of soul-piercing questions.

Was he worried about Yu Xiaogang's retaliation?

What a joke. His father was Tang Hao after awakening!

What the hell was the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon?

If Yu Xiaogang dared touch him, he would have him vanish from the world tonight!

"Tang San! You have gone too far!!!"

"You have no respect for your elders!"

"Today, I will teach you a proper lesson on behalf of your elders!!!"

In an instant, Yu Xiaogang stood frozen like a wooden chicken, his face flushing red. Humiliated into fury, he roared.

It had to be said that every word Tang San spoke was like a sharp needle stabbing deep into his heart.

These were the things he found most unacceptable, his most fragile and sensitive sore spots.

He had never expected a mere Work-Study Student from the countryside to dare speak to him like this!
