Tang San had lost his wife!

Even if things could still return to the right track, Tang San's progress in winning her over would at least be delayed for quite a while.

While Yun Feng was lost in thought, Xiao Wu finished tidying up her things with everyone's help and neatly made her bed.

Seeing this, Wang Sheng suggested to everyone:

"Xiao Wu, Tang San, Yun Feng, how about we go eat? It's about time for a meal!"

However, since Tang San and Xiao Wu had no money, Wang Sheng saw their embarrassment and said generously:

"Use mine. I've done work for the academy these past few years and saved up a little."

Then, as if remembering something, he said to Yun Feng:

"Xiao Feng, you come too!"

Hearing that someone was paying, Xiao Wu and Tang San both showed eager looks in their eyes.

After arriving at the cafeteria, just as Yun Feng had understood from his previous life, Dorm Seven got into a conflict with Xiao Chenyu. Once the Dorm Seven students learned that Tang San's teacher was Yu Xiaogang, Wang Sheng kindly mentioned a few things, only to be harshly scolded by Tang San.

He paid for the meal and left without a word.

After eating, Xiao Wu took the money Yun Feng had given her and led a large group outside to buy bedding before returning to Dorm Seven.

Yun Feng did not go with them. Instead, carrying hot water, he left the group and asked around to find out which area had the most Blue Silver Grass before heading to the back mountain.

As the most widespread plant on the continent, Blue Silver Grass was easy for Yun Feng to find.

After sensing the life force in this area, Yun Feng sat down cross-legged and began cultivating.

Time waits for no one!

Even though he now had the Listen-to-Advice System, the difficulty of triggering suggestions was simply too high.

While eating earlier, Yun Feng had asked around, but he had failed to trigger any advice.

It left him thoroughly confused.

Didn't it say even random passersby could trigger it once?

Yet the system did not appear to answer Yun Feng's question.

With no other choice, Yun Feng could only try out this Mimic Environment.

After all, his Martial Soul was Blue Silver Grass.

And the one thing the back mountain did not lack was Blue Silver Grass.

As time slowly passed, Yun Feng gradually entered a better state of cultivation.

The only strange thing was that he had to take a sip of hot water every time he meditated for a while. It was truly an incomprehensible practice.

Still, Yun Feng did not find it troublesome. At the very least, this was much faster than cultivating by simply drinking hot water.

When his cultivation ended, Yun Feng lightly clenched his fist. Feeling the strength filling his body, he finally smiled.

"Level two!"

Although his starting point was not as high as others', this allowed Yun Feng to truly feel hope.

After arriving in this world and learning that it was Douluo Continent, he had prepared a training plan for himself.

He had not known whether he would possess Soul Power, but there was never anything wrong with strengthening his body.

And if he did have Soul Power and could become a Spirit Master, then his training would be laying the foundation for his future.

Yun Feng had learned Taiji in his previous life. Although he had not practiced it much and had learned it from old men in the park, seriously completing a full set of forms still had some effect.

At the very least, he was much taller than Tang San.

Although it could not increase Innate Soul Power like Tang San's Mysterious Heaven Skill, Yun Feng could genuinely feel that his body had become much stronger.

Back in his previous life, no matter how he trained, it had been useless. Yet after coming to this world, once he had gotten started and grasped the knack, he could clearly sense the warm current within his body.

After collecting his thoughts, Yun Feng looked up at the sky.

Then he performed another set of Taiji.

When he saw that night was already about to fall, Yun Feng casually tidied up and prepared to head down the mountain and return to Dorm Seven.

However, after taking only a few steps, Yun Feng sensed that something was off.

His clothes seemed to have shrunk by a size.

He could only consider buying a few more sets of clothes. Otherwise, this training effect was simply too outrageous!

No wonder everyone in Douluo developed so well.

So it was because of the world's environment.

Or rather, Soul Power was like hormones.

After cultivating for so long, Yun Feng's body felt somewhat tired. When he returned to the dormitory, he casually washed up and planned to go outside to grab something to eat.

Since school had not started yet, the rules were not particularly strict.

He was still growing, so he naturally had to eat something good!

Yun Feng understood the saying: poverty breeds scholars, wealth breeds warriors!

If his nutrition could not keep up, everything would be for nothing. It might even leave hidden injuries in his body, and that would not be worth it!

Though short on money, Yun Feng had no intention of cutting corners in this regard.

Just as Yun Feng passed by the teachers' dormitory, he saw Tang San coming out of Yu Xiaogang's room.

Yun Feng smiled and greeted him, noticing some worries in Tang San's eyes.

After seeing that it was Yun Feng, Tang San merely asked a few simple questions before hurriedly leaving. Yun Feng did not care much about it.

Thinking it over, at this point Tang San had probably been called over by Yu Xiaogang to determine his second Martial Soul. Yu Xiaogang would also have Tang San take the control-type path, preferably one involving poison.

After all, it was for the sake of his theories!

Now that he had a ready-made test subject, Yu Xiaogang naturally gave Tang San that kind of advice.

Even though he himself did not know whether that path was easy to walk!

But the facts proved that Tang Hao and Yu Xiaogang had both treated Blue Silver Grass as a transitional tool. They had not considered Tang San's future role at all. After all, wasn't the advantage of Twin Martial Souls that the Clear Sky Hammer could be fitted entirely with Spirit Rings over ten thousand years old? Sacrificing some of the future to satisfy his own theories, for Yu Xiaogang

was simply having an excellent test subject.

However, Yun Feng was not particularly outraged. He even believed that Yu Xiaogang's reasoning was entirely sound.

The only mistake was that Yu Xiaogang had developed his ideas based on Tang San's Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul.

And one had to admit that Blue Silver Grass was of poor quality. Its only traits were its strong vitality and reproductive ability.

So the direction had been wrong from the very beginning.

In truth, it was also because Yu Xiaogang had lost Liu Erlong and Flender, leaving him without enough resources to support his research.

He was merely being self-righteous.

And Yun Feng deeply disliked people like that.

It was fine to have ideas, but before those ideas had been proven, he casually applied them to others.

Calling it a disregard for human life would be putting it lightly.

Though every advancement was accompanied by bloodshed, that was built upon sufficient preparation!

Still, dislike was dislike. Yun Feng could accept it when it was used on Tang San!

If Tang San remembered that he was a disciple of the Tang Sect, skilled in poison and Hidden Weapons, where fallen leaves and flying flowers could all become deadly blades, Yun Feng might actually find him troublesome!

Paired with Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, wasn't that just kiting tactics?

Yet Tang San trusted Yu Xiaogang deeply and did not consider his own strengths at all.

Yu Xiaogang's proposal could only be called a decent strategy, but it was definitely not the optimal solution.
