"Those two claimed to be invincible under heaven and roamed the continent with that woman. Both brothers fell in love with her, but in the end, she chose Tang Hao. The important point is that she was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast that had transformed into human form."
"Ah, wasn't she just like Elder Sister Snow Empress?"
Su Han nodded and looked at Snow Empress beside him.
Snow Empress was curious as well. There were very few Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts to begin with, and she had never heard of this incident.
"Later, that woman became pregnant, and Spirit Hall discovered her whereabouts. Spirit Hall coveted her Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring and Spirit Bone.
"At that time, Tang Hao happened to be at the critical juncture of breaking through to become a Titled Douluo. During the battle, that woman sacrificed her Hundred-Thousand-Year Spirit Ring to Tang Hao. After breaking through, Tang Hao fought his way out of the encirclement with the infant boy."
"Ah."
Shao Siyuan and the others were all women. Naturally, they were somewhat astonished by such a tragic love story.
"But Tang Hao was either stupid or evil. He continued traveling outside while his pregnant wife was in a weakened state. He was only a Soul Douluo and lacked sufficient strength—that was stupid.
"Then, at the critical moment of his breakthrough, he fell into a desperate situation and forced that woman to sacrifice herself—that was evil. I don't know which of the two was the reason, but it had to be one of them."
"I should have beaten him to death back then!"
Hua Mulan spoke angrily from the side. None of them had expected the usually most indifferent Hua Mulan to be the first to speak.
Su Han also explained some other matters, including Tang San's various deeds, which led all the women to condemn the people of the Tang Family one after another.
At this moment, the Golden Ranking's evaluation of Tang San finally arrived. Everyone on the continent who was paying attention to Tang San immediately looked over.
They all wanted to know what kind of storm a forbidden child who should never have been born could stir up after obtaining Twin Martial Souls and Innate Full Soul Power.
[Tang San possesses Twin Martial Souls. One is the top-tier plant-type Martial Soul, Blue Silver Emperor. Although it has yet to awaken, its powerful vitality guarantees the strength of this Martial Soul. However, he was misled by a mediocre teacher and took the path of the Control System combined with poison, needlessly wearing down the Martial Soul's potential. His other Martial Soul, the Clear Sky Hammer, is likewise a top-tier Tool Martial Soul. Combined with his innate combat talent and techniques, this ranking is entirely well deserved!] [Reward: Blue Silver Emperor awakening, a forty percent increase to the upper limit of all subsequent Spirit Rings, one External Soul Bone, and one Hundred-Thousand-Year Head Soul Bone!]
Tang San froze. At this moment, Yu Xiaogang, who was rushing north on horseback, also stood dumbfounded.
He had repeatedly claimed that he did not believe Tang San would go to Great Wall Academy, but when he urgently wanted to find Tang San and protect him, he had still rushed north at the first opportunity.
However, the Golden Ranking's evaluation of Tang San left the already hollow teacher-student relationship between the two in name only, and both of them stood there in a daze.
"How is that possible!"
"I'm a mediocre teacher!"
Yu Xiaogang collapsed onto the ground, unable to believe his own eyes.
Heaven Dou Empire, Northern Province.
"That useless Yu Xiaogang! Is this how he taught my son?"
Tang Hao trembled with rage. Of course, he could not admit that he himself had failed to see the hidden mysteries of Tang San's Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul.
Of course, even if he had noticed, given his temperament, he would still have believed that the Clear Sky Hammer was invincible under heaven and made Tang San cultivate the Blue Silver Grass in a linear fashion.
But now the problem was that the damned Yu Xiaogang had needlessly wasted his precious son's talent and even turned the Martial Soul Ah Yin had left behind into a useless one.
Tang San's expression was complicated. Although he respected Yu Xiaogang, Yu Xiaogang had now caused him to suffer a loss of benefits, which was completely contrary to the Tang Sect's principles.
"Yu Xiaogang, the next time we meet, you will be my enemy!"
Xiao Wu was still hesitating, but she was startled by the look in Tang San's eyes, as if he wanted to tear Yu Xiaogang apart and devour him alive.
This was completely different from the Third Brother in her memories. Ever since the Golden Ranking appeared, Tang San had become more and more different.
Could this be the real Third Brother?
The thought had barely appeared in Xiao Wu's mind when she hurriedly suppressed it.
How could her Third Brother be a petty villain? She must simply be overthinking things.
Spirit Hall, Papal Palace.
"Misled by a mediocre teacher? Hahahaha, good, good!"
Bibi Dong burst into laughter. After Tang San had ascended the Talent Golden Ranking, she had already listed him as a major enemy. The Clear Sky Sect had never been frightening. What was frightening was the most talented Clear Sky Douluo of each generation.
Tang Chen had been like that. If Tang Hao had not been bullied by Qian Xunji, he would probably have dominated his generation as well. And now there was Tang San. Bibi Dong could only wonder, would the Tang Family ever stop?
She had even cast aside her wariness of Great Wall Academy. After all, the enmity between the Clear Sky Sect and Spirit Hall was irreconcilable, while in Bibi Dong's eyes, there was still room for negotiation with Great Wall Academy.
After all, it was merely an academy, not a sect or similar force. Naturally, there was no need to fight Spirit Hall, the continent's greatest power, to the bitter end.
As long as she could offer sufficiently generous terms, couldn't she simply absorb Great Wall Academy?
"This mediocre teacher has been a blessing! One of his Twin Martial Souls—two top-tier Martial Souls—has already been ruined. Let's see how the Clear Sky Sect plans to fight us now!"
Bibi Dong spoke with high spirits. Hu Liena also wore a smile at the corner of her mouth. She had yet to appear on the ranking after so long. Could this mean she had a chance at the top ten?
"Na'er truly hasn't let down her teacher's nurturing."
[Thirteenth place on the Talent Golden Ranking, Clear Sky Sect, Tang Chen.] [Martial Soul: Clear Sky Hammer. Innate Full Soul Power. Rank-ninety-nine Power Attack System Limit Douluo. Age: one hundred years old!]
Bibi Dong's smile stiffened on her face. She glanced at Hu Liena suspiciously.
No matter how confident she was, she would never think Hu Liena's talent surpassed Tang Chen's. So what was going on? Her most highly regarded Na'er had not made the ranking!
Hu Liena was also dumbfounded. Tang Chen was fourth on the Combat Power Golden Ranking. Since he had appeared on the ranking at this point, how could she possibly rank higher?
Bibi Dong and Hu Liena exchanged a glance. The teacher and disciple were both shocked, while Hu Liena's eyes were filled with disappointment and guilt.
"Teacher, I'm sorry I've failed your nurturing."
"Silly child, what are you apologizing for? You are still my hoped-for successor as the next Pope. Perhaps your kind nature makes you weaker in combat. It's fine if you don't make this Golden Ranking!"
Hu Liena nodded heavily, tears already welling in her eyes.
On Sea God Island,
Sea Dragon Douluo looked at Tang Chen, who had suddenly arrived on the island, and remained on guard.
He could not see through the aura of the person before him at all. Just how powerful was this Soul Master, and why had he come to Sea God Island?
"You don't know who I am? Look up and see."
Tang Chen had been stopped by Sea Dragon Douluo and was growing anxious, but he did not want to attack rashly. At that moment, the Golden Ranking happened to announce his name.
Although Tang Hao did not care much about this ranking, he still felt that thirteenth place was somewhat low.
"Hao'er is fifteenth, my great-grandson is fourteenth, and I, their ancestor, am only thirteenth. Sigh, my blade has grown old while talents emerge one after another!"
