Meet Tang San Again and Take Him as My Adopted Son

Eating Roast Lamb (As for why this doesn't match the title, keep reading)

Ye Ye finished his lesson for the day. The afternoon was set aside for independent cultivation, so he didn't need to supervise.

At noon, Ye Ye prepared to go out for lunch. Why not eat in the school cafeteria? Because if he did, probably half the school would go hungry.

Although Ye Ye now had a human body, his physique and abilities were no different from Godzilla's, and he consumed just as much energy. He needed to replenish it.

Just as Ye Ye was about to leave the school, he ran into Tang San and Xiao Wu. He seemed to remember something and went over to them. "Wait!"

Tang San asked, "Is there something you need, Teacher Ye?"

"Come to my office this afternoon if you have time."

Tang San frowned, unsure what Ye Ye meant, but he still agreed. "No problem, Teacher."

Ye Ye nodded, then continued toward the school gates.

.

Xiao Wu asked, "Third Brother, what does Teacher Ye want you to see him about?"

"I don't know either," Tang San replied.

Ye Ye headed outside and arrived at a restaurant called "Zhang Family's Authentic Suotuo City Wang Family Roast Lamb" in Nuoding City. He went in, found a seat, and waited. After a while, a server came over and asked, "What would you like, sir?"

"I'll have ten sheep."

"Which cuts would you like?"

"I want ten whole sheep, and make them extra spicy." Ye Ye had always liked strong flavors. Otherwise, he couldn't have gone straight to eating raw meat after becoming Godzilla.

"What? Are you sure you want ten sheep?" (′o′)

"Yes."

The server hurried off toward the kitchen, calling as he ran, "Boss! We've got a big order!"

Before long, roast sheep began coming out of the kitchen. Ye Ye didn't even care that they were hot. He grabbed one with his bare hands, tore it in half, then picked up one half and started chomping down.

Come eat roast lamb!

After being a Soul Beast for so long, Ye Ye had grown wilder and wilder.

Several servers nearby were stunned. They kept watching, growing more shocked by the second. Ye Ye had already finished an entire sheep so quickly! The women started whispering among themselves.

Server A asked, "Do you think he can finish them all?"

Server B said, "I don't think so. That's ten sheep!"

Server C said, "I think he can. Look at him—he ate a whole sheep as easily as a skewer of lamb."

Server D said, "Exactly! He'll definitely finish them. Look how elegantly he eats! (^o^)"

Server A: "?"

Server B: "(д)"

Server C said, "How can you call that elegant? Is your brain fried?"

Ye Ye quickly finished all ten sheep, leaving the servers completely stunned.

Servers A, B, and C exclaimed, "He really ate them all!" (д)

Server D said, "So cool!"

Servers A, B, and C: "?"

"Ten more," Ye Ye said. He still wasn't full.

The boss shouted, "Quick, go get the Buddha! (Ahem, wrong story.) Quick, slaughter a few more sheep!" The restaurant slaughtered the sheep as they cooked, so everything was absolutely fresh.

Ye Ye finished those, then finished some more. In the end, they truly ran out of sheep. The boss said, "Sir, we really don't have any more sheep today. Why not come back tomorrow?"

"That's all you have? You barely have any sheep. You're no good at this, boss. Fine, I'll come back another time."

Just look at how much you've eaten. Of course, they couldn't say that out loud.

The boss said, "You're right, sir. We weren't prepared well enough this time."

Ye Ye paid the bill and left.

The boss and servers called out, "Please come again!"

"Don't worry, I'll be back tomorrow," Ye Ye replied.

The boss and servers: "(д)"

Only Server D was delighted. "That's wonderful!＼(^▽^)／!"

Then Ye Ye returned to the academy.

Taking Tang San as an Adopted Son (Surprised? Excited? Keep reading)

Ye Ye returned to his office and asked the system, "Where's today's sign-in location?"

[Ding! There are no other sign-in locations in Nuoding City. Searching for locations in other regions. Sign-in location: Heaven Dou City, distance: 25018845 meters]

"Just as I thought. There's too little going on in Nuoding City, and nothing major has happened, so there aren't any sign-in locations. I'll have to go to Heaven Dou City myself later. Looks like I need to leave here soon. But why does that distance seem so strange?"

As Ye Ye was thinking, someone suddenly knocked on the door. He stopped and said, "Come in."

Tang San walked in and asked, "What did you want to see me about, Teacher?"

"So it's you, Little San. Come sit down."

Tang San sat down and asked again. Ye Ye said, "I called you here because of the Grandmaster."

Tang San frowned when he heard that. Ye Ye continued, "I advise you not to keep learning from the Grandmaster. His methods are all wrong and have no basis."

Tang San frowned even more, then stood up and said, "Teacher Ye, I won't let you slander my teacher."

"Then tell me: how many years can a person's First Soul Ring have at most?"

"Four hundred and twenty-three years," Tang San answered confidently.

"What about the second, third, and fourth Soul Rings?"

Tang San replied, "The second Soul Ring can have at most seven hundred and sixty-four years, the third one thousand seven hundred and sixty years, and the fourth five thousand years."

"Then look at my Soul Rings." As he spoke, Ye Ye released his simulated Soul Rings: yellow, purple, purple, black.

How is this possible? Teacher, you clearly said the first two Soul Rings were a hundred years old, followed by two thousand-year Soul Rings. Why are Teacher Ye's Soul Rings completely different?

"Everyone's limit is different. The limit of a Soul Ring depends on a Soul Master's physical strength and the quality of their Martial Soul. As long as your Martial Soul and body are strong enough, you can absorb Soul Rings with even higher year counts."

"So that's how it works. Could the Grandmaster really be wrong about everything?"

The Grandmaster hadn't taught Tang San much lately because of the injuries he'd sustained last time. On top of that, Ye Ye's Soul Rings were proof, so Tang San trusted Ye Ye even more.

Ye Ye is right. The Grandmaster's theories have no basis and nothing to support them, Tang San thought.

Then Tang San fell to his knees and kowtowed three times. Overcome with emotion, he said, "Teacher Ye, please take me as your disciple!"

Ye Ye was taken aback, then said, "Haven't you already acknowledged the Grandmaster as your teacher?"

That's true. I already acknowledged the Grandmaster as my teacher. I can't acknowledge Teacher Ye as my teacher too.

Then Tang San said, "In that case, I'll acknowledge you as my adoptive father. Please take me as your adopted son." Then he kowtowed three more times.

Ye Ye thought, I never expected Tang San to acknowledge me as his adoptive father. This is going to be fun.

Ye Ye hurriedly said, "Get up."

"I won't get up unless you agree, Father."

"Fine, I agree."

"Thank you, Father." Tang San stood up.

"Since you've acknowledged me as your adoptive father, I can't let you down. I'll teach you more about Soul Masters and show you how to train your body."

Then Ye Ye began teaching Tang San more about Soul Masters: "spiritual power, Soul Bones, the strength of Soul Beast bloodlines, things to watch out for when absorbing Soul Rings, the power of Ultimate Attribute Martial Souls, and an overview of the continent's situation, including the benefits and power of Spirit Hall...and more."

Ye Ye also arranged a training regimen for Tang San. He taught him the principles of prosperity, democracy, civility, harmony, freedom, equality, fairness, and the rule of law, along with sound ways of thinking. He corrected Tang San's values and beliefs.

Ye Ye also spent 200 points to buy Tang San lots of books with sound values, along with various essays. They covered things like how children shouldn't date too early, how people should yield to one another, how men and women should keep their distance, and how people should help others.

Ye Ye wanted to start correcting Tang San's values while he was still young.

Author's note:

These were two chapters combined into one, so there are more words. Why? Because the author wrote some extra chapters earlier, the table of contents is five chapters ahead of the main story. By combining two chapters like this, the author can first give you more words, and then catch up with the chapter numbers in the table of contents.
