Background / History
Tang San was Yu Xiaogang's disciple and greatest source of pride. Yu Xiaogang regarded him as a masterpiece he had personally cultivated, while Tang San repeatedly affirmed his willingness to act on his teacher's commands, including killing Liu Yuan 59 73.
He rose as a leading force for the Heaven Dou Empire during the war against Martial Soul Hall. Equipped with the Seagod Trident and two domains, he slaughtered opposing Title Douluo and forced Martial Soul Hall's forces back into Jialing Pass 59.
Xiao Wu's sacrifice gave Tang San a hundred-thousand-year spirit ring and spirit bone. Liu Yuan later showed Xiao Wu a vision of Tang San celebrating while absorbing those gains, undermining her trust in him 35 36.
Tang San's first direct clash with Liu Yuan ended in a crushing defeat. Liu Yuan's avatar repelled him with one strike, leaving him vomiting blood and forcing the Heaven Dou army to question its champion 76 77. Afterward, Tang San chose to pursue the Sea God's trials in order to gain enough power to defeat Liu Yuan 83 84.
Personality
Tang San is ambitious, prideful, and intensely concerned with power. He openly fantasizes about becoming the continent's foremost figure, killing Bibi Dong, and making all of Douluo Continent fear his name 45.
His confidence frequently becomes arrogance after major increases in strength. He taunts defeated opponents, humiliates Martial Soul Hall's troops, and repeatedly assumes that his power guarantees victory 59 125 131.
When faced with Liu Yuan's overwhelming strength, Tang San prioritizes survival over reputation or dignity. He attempts to flee, begs for mercy, and kowtows when given the choice between submission and death 155 159. After merging with the God of Devouring, however, he regains his former smugness and uses his advantage to taunt and mentally torment Liu Yuan 172.
