To think he would say such extreme things and still not stop!
As the "Young Sect Master" of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Xiaogang had his own pride.
Under normal circumstances, if he were to speak up again, it would be a miracle.
But today was different!
With a piece of raw jade that could prove his worth right before his eyes, how could he possibly restrain himself?
With a leap, his level 29 Soul Power surged forth, and under Tang San's wary gaze, Yu Xiaogang blocked their path.
He slowly raised a hand, striking a pose of a grandmaster, and spoke.
"Wait!"
"You may leave, but he cannot!"
Pointing at Qin Yun to signal him to leave, Yu Xiaogang focused all his attention on Tang San.
Seeing that Tang San not only failed to understand him but instead showed hostility, Gangzi spoke with earnest, painstaking advice to avoid ruining their future master-disciple relationship.
"Don't misunderstand. This is a matter of great importance; apart from you and me, there truly cannot be anyone else here."
"Hmph!"
With a cold snort, Tang San felt not a shred of goodwill toward the man before him.
Under normal circumstances, if Gangzi dared to act like this, he would have already fired a Silent Sleeve Arrow.
But considering Qin Yun's earlier warning, Tang San suppressed the urge to court death.
"This teacher, you might not know, but Brother Yun is my dearest friend and brother. To us, you are the outsider!"
Gangzi: "..."
"Actually, I am not a teacher at the academy. I only reside here temporarily because of my outstanding theoretical knowledge and my acquaintance with the Dean!"
If you aren't even a teacher, then what the hell are you talking about!
Seeing the disgust in Tang San's eyes becoming impossible to hide, and noticing Qin Yun preparing to leave, Yu Xiaogang had no choice but to keep them both.
"Very well, since you trust him, then both of you may stay. Kid, you are lucky today. To receive my guidance means your future path of cultivation will surely be smooth sailing!"
To keep Tang San, Gangzi skipped the nonsense and got straight to the point.
"This student, if I am not mistaken, besides your Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, you should have another one, right? What is that other Martial Soul? Show it to me!"
If it were the Tang San who had just entered the world and lacked experience, he might have been bluffed by Gangzi's words.
But having traveled all this way, and having gained a certain understanding of the Douluo Continent's Martial Soul system under Qin Yun's tutelage, the current Tang San, though still green, was not someone Gangzi could easily fool.
"Lord Soul Master, I don't quite understand what you are talking about."
"Heh, caution is a good thing, but there is no need to play dumb in front of me, Yu Xiaogang!"
Crossing his arms, Gangzi displayed unprecedented confidence when discussing theoretical knowledge.
"I have investigated 647 people with the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul. Among them, only sixteen possessed Soul Power, a probability of less than three percent. And even among those sixteen, none had Soul Power exceeding level one. Yet, judging from your conversation with the gatekeeper earlier, you possess Innate Full Soul Power at level ten. According to one of the Ten Core Competencies of Martial Soul that I have researched, the magnitude of Innate Soul Power is directly proportional to the quality of the Martial Soul. The Blue Silver Grass clearly cannot satisfy this, so I can be certain that you must have another Martial Soul, and a very powerful one at that!"
It was logical and well-founded; aside from the rudeness of eavesdropping, there was nothing wrong with his argument.
With these words out, you should be bowing down to me by now!
In truth, even Gangzi himself hadn't expected this; he was merely freeloading at Nuoding Academy. Driven by a lingering obsession, he would come to try his luck whenever new students enrolled, hoping to find a disciple with extraordinary talent to prove himself to the world.
It was just a pity that after so many years, he had never found a suitable candidate.
He never expected to have such luck this year!
However, just as Gangzi felt victory was certain—believing that as long as Tang San wasn't a fool, he would surely choose to become his disciple under his guidance—he didn't expect Tang San to feel like laughing after hearing his theory.
I wondered what it was; so it's just this!
However, looking at the arrogant Gangzi, and then glancing at the calm and collected Sect Master beside him, Tang San couldn't help but sigh.
The gap between people is sometimes truly greater than the gap between a human and a pig!
Yu Xiaogang and Qin Yun truly perfectly illustrated the difference between a half-full bottle that rattles and a full bottle that makes no sound!
"What is it? Am I wrong? Or are you questioning my theories!"
"Lord Soul Master, I think there might be some misunderstanding.
Although I am no expert, I have heard a few theories myself.
The appearance of Twin Martial Souls is based on the condition that the quality of the parents' martial souls is similar.
In other words, for anyone with Twin Martial Souls, both of their martial souls must be either very strong or very weak.
On this point alone, the theory you just mentioned does not hold much water.
As for why I have Innate Full Soul Power, is it possible that my Blue Silver Grass martial soul is not ordinary Blue Silver Grass?"
"This..."
Faced with an unprecedented theory, Gangzi was momentarily stunned.
Does the birth of Twin Martial Souls really have such conditions?
Why is there no record of this in the archives of Martial Soul Hall or the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan?
Could those who compile the data not be a bit more diligent? This is purely sabotaging someone like him who plagiarizes!
"Impossible, absolutely impossible. I have never heard of such a theory.
I fear someone has deceived you; this unverified theory is nothing but nonsense!
Furthermore, you say your martial soul is not ordinary Blue Silver Grass—could it be a mutation? Or perhaps a rare, beneficial mutation?"
Seeing that Gangzi was determined to get to the bottom of it, Tang San opened his right hand and slowly circulated his soul power to avoid exposing the secret of his Twin Martial Souls.
Immediately, a stalk of Blue Silver Grass brimming with vitality bloomed in his right hand.
"As you can see, the plant in my hand is not just Blue Silver Grass; to be precise, it should be the Blue Silver King!
It is just that the deacon from Martial Soul Hall had limited knowledge at the time, which is why he failed to recognize it."
Gangzi leaned in to observe it carefully.
To be honest, Gangzi's own understanding of Blue Silver Grass was not particularly deep.
Moreover, the Blue Silver Grass and the Blue Silver King looked extremely similar.
Let alone Su Yuntao and Gangzi, even Qin Yun himself would not have noticed the discrepancy if he hadn't known about it beforehand.
However, despite the previous blunder, Gangzi was thick-skinned enough not to let it bother him much.
"Looking closely, it is indeed slightly different from ordinary Blue Silver Grass, but that is irrelevant.
Although you do not possess the rare Twin Martial Souls, having Innate Full Soul Power is not bad either.
As long as you take me as your master, under my theoretical guidance, I can guarantee that you will definitely become a top expert on this continent in the future.
Even becoming a Titled Douluo is not out of the question!"
