The Hammer in His Left Hand Protects the Grass in His Right

After Old Jack brought Tang Yu and Tang San back to the smithy, he immediately shouted excitedly, "Tang Hao! Tang Hao!"

Tang Hao came out of the room and asked coldly, "What are you shouting about? What Martial Souls did you two awaken?"

Tang San answered, "Blue Silver Grass."

Tang Yu said, "Clear Sky Hammer."

Hearing the names of these two Martial Souls, Tang Hao's body suddenly trembled. Old Jack spoke up. "Our village has produced two geniuses at once! Both Xiao Yu and Xiao San have Innate Full Soul Power. Our village has one work-study student slot, and I've decided to give it to Xiao San. As for Xiao Yu, with his Martial Soul and Innate Full Soul Power, Nuoding Primary Academy will surely admit him directly."

Hearing Old Jack's words, Tang Hao said coldly, "That's enough. They're not going!"

"What did you say? If they become Spirit Masters, Xiao Yu and Xiao San can rise above ordinary people. How can you refuse to let them go?" Old Jack was so angry that his beard bristled.

Tang Yu watched the scene unfold, looking as if he were enjoying a show.

Tang Hao glanced at Old Jack. "There's no need to say anything more. What good is rising above ordinary people? If Xiao Yu and Xiao San leave, who'll cook for me?"

"You—Hmph, I'm leaving!" Old Jack stormed off.

Tang Hao looked at Tang Yu. "Xiao Yu, try not to use your Martial Soul from now on."

Tang Yu pursed his lips, unhappy. "Tch, fine, I won't use it. I'll just use the power of lightning instead."

"Hm? The power of lightning?" Tang Hao asked, surprised.

Tang Yu nodded. "My Clear Sky Hammer is a little different. Its weight is immeasurable, and it can also control lightning!"

A glimmer appeared in Tang Hao's eyes. "A Mutated Martial Soul, perhaps... Xiao Yu, bring out your Clear Sky Hammer and let me see it."

Tang Yu nodded. "Okay."

As he spoke, Tang Yu summoned Thor's Hammer and set the small hammer on the ground. Tang Hao reached out to pick it up, but Thor's Hammer didn't budge.

Tang Hao was instantly dumbfounded. He tried lifting it with Soul Power, but Thor's Hammer still wouldn't move. He was utterly stunned. He was a Titled Douluo, yet he couldn't lift Tang Yu's Martial Soul.

At that moment, Tang Hao suddenly had a feeling: he actually thought Tang Yu might become a god one day!

Just then, Tang San spoke. "Dad, does everyone only have one Martial Soul? But I have another one too—that hammer."

As he spoke, Tang San held out both hands. A stalk of Blue Silver Grass and a Clear Sky Hammer appeared above his palms.

Tang Hao was shocked once more. He hadn't expected both his sons to have such extraordinary talents. He looked at them intently. "Xiao Yu, Xiao San, you must remember this: always use the hammers in your hands to protect the Blue Silver Grass in Xiao San's hand. Xiao Yu, I'll allow you to use your Clear Sky Hammer from now on. But Xiao San, you mustn't. You absolutely cannot let anyone outside know that you have two Martial Souls! Can you promise me?"

Tang Yu and Tang San immediately nodded.

Tang Hao pulled them into his arms. "I don't know how far you'll go in the future, but you must remember what you promised me today."

Tang San said, "Don't worry, Dad. I'll use the hammer in my left hand to protect the grass in my right."

Tang Hao nodded in satisfaction.

The next day

Tang San suddenly asked Tang Hao to teach him blacksmithing, so Tang Hao began teaching him. Tang San learned very quickly, and Tang Hao started thinking about teaching Tang Yu as well.
