Martial Soul Awakening

The weakness of the Tang Sect was beyond Tang San's expectations; what on earth had happened?

Ji Siyuan posed the question, and Tang Ya decided to tell this newcomer the cruel reality.

Though it was mostly cruel to her alone.

"The decline of our Tang Sect is related to the Sun Moon Continent four thousand years ago. They brought more advanced Soul Tools."

Tang Ya explained incessantly.

Ji Siyuan asked Tang San, "Uncle, don't you feel sad?"

Tang San replied, "It is a bit sad, but it is normal for the advanced to eliminate the backward. I am only saddened that the Tang Sect failed to innovate."

He sighed repeatedly, unable to believe the Tang Sect had turned into this.

"Of course, there are internal reasons as well," Tang Ya continued to explain. "Our Tang Sect has always chosen the Blue Silver Grass as the Martial Soul for the Sect Master, so the Sect Master's strength has been restricted."

What kind of moronic elders are these? My Tang Sect was absolutely never like this.

Tang Ya was weeping outside, while Tang San roared in fury internally, "Absolutely impossible! I was the one who ensured the Tang Sect selected the best of the best; how could I have restricted it to the Blue Silver Grass?"

Bei Bei gently hugged Tang Ya, "Xiao Ya, this is not your fault."

It went without saying that Tang Ya's Martial Soul was also Blue Silver Grass.

Ji Siyuan was fine, as he had already known in advance.

"Siyuan, once you inherit the Tang Sect, you must abolish this rule!"

"Can't we abolish it now?"

"Tell them to scrap it immediately! The Tang Sect must never be such a foolish sect."

Ji Siyuan thought for a moment, "Sect Master, wouldn't it be best to just scrap the rule? There are only three of us anyway; surely we don't have to insist on finding another Blue Silver Grass user later."

If nothing else, if Tang Ya were to marry Bei Bei and have children, there was a ninety percent chance their offspring would not have the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul.

If Douluo Continent was known for anything, it was that strong Martial Souls were dominant genes.

A piece of trash like Blue Silver Grass could never compare to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. Not to mention that Bei Bei also possessed the bloodline of the Radiant Sacred Dragon.

Tang Ya still wouldn't give up, "What if you happen to be the one Blue Silver Grass user with soul power?"

"Impossible," Tang San told Ji Siyuan first. "You are not from Douluo Continent. The power your parents and I arranged for you is the Sword of Three Realms Judgment; your Martial Soul will not be Blue Silver Grass."

Tang San's own Martial Soul was not Blue Silver Grass, but the Blue Silver Emperor.

There are no trash Martial Souls, only trash Soul Masters. This saying sounded nice, but it had come from the mouth of Gangzi.

The moment Tang San saw Yu Xiaogang, he knew he was a pure piece of trash.

Regardless of whether he followed Gangzi's theories, Gangzi was a failure. After all, his own Martial Soul had indeed been evolving toward a top-tier level.

Tang Ya wiped away her tears, "Hmph, although our Tang Sect has declined, the items for awakening Martial Souls are still here. Bei Bei, awaken the little junior brother's Martial Soul."

After a long wait, Ji Siyuan stood in the magic circle and began to awaken his Martial Soul.

"Relax, Siyuan."

Lightning flickered across Bei Bei's body as two yellow and one purple soul rings floated up.

Ji Siyuan closed his eyes to feel the changes in his body.

Tang San asked, "Is this the power your parents left behind?"

As his biological parents, how could Ji Dong and Lie Yan not have left him power?

It simply hadn't manifested until now. This was the moment of manifestation.

Scorching flames soared into the sky, and Tang Ya, standing to the side, could only retreat.

"So hot! I never saw a scene like this when my Martial Soul awakened. What kind of Martial Soul is this?"

A river of fire appeared out of thin air, driving Bei Bei directly to the side.

Red lotuses bloomed one after another, with nine lotus seeds circling around him.

He stood at the very center of the fire river, inside the largest red lotus.

Geocentric Red Lotus! The bloodline from Lie Yan.

Bing fire and Ding fire, the ultimate of Yin and Yang, peerless in this world.

The river of fire vanished, but the raging flames burning in mid-air remained an impassable barrier for Bei Bei and Tang Ya.

Bei Bei could not understand what these flames were, but he knew they were far hotter than Ma Xiaotao's flames.

Tang Ya placed her own Blue Silver Grass into the flames.

It ignited instantly, leaving no residue behind.

Terrified, Tang Ya stood up immediately, "Such powerful fire! I really have struck gold."

Tang San remarked, "So it is your mother's Fire Lotus. It is only fitting; before she became a God King, she was already a second-tier god. This Martial Soul is a god-level Martial Soul."

As he spoke, he felt a hint of envy; the gap between god-level and top-tier was not just a small margin.

"Now that you have another Martial Soul, do not expose your Sword of Three Realms Judgment. Twin Martial Souls are incredibly powerful, not to mention that the level of the Sword of Three Realms Judgment is even higher."

The combined power of three God Kings, transformed into a Martial Soul that surpassed the God King level, was far from simple.

To reveal it now would only make him a target for everyone.

"We have arrived in another space-time, and this space-time even has a God Realm. You cannot expose your identity recklessly."

"I understand."

He put away the Sword of Three Realms Judgment, choosing not to display it.

Yet, his flames had already announced his talent.

Bei Bei: "Siyuan, what kind of Martial Soul is that? I only saw a red lotus."

Ji Siyuan's expression was not one of desolation, but of profound sorrow: "Earth Fire Red Lotus, inherited from my mother."

Tang Ya wanted to ask more, but Bei Bei stopped her. He whispered: "Xiaoya, don't pick at someone's scars."

"I'm not stupid."

She smiled: "Since you've come to our Tang Sect, treat it as your home. This is our Tang Sect's ultimate technique, the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record. Remember to return it to me after you've read it."

As she spoke, she took out a book and handed it to Ji Siyuan.

Ji Siyuan's mouth twitched; he had read this book long ago, and he had even learned the optimized version.

He glanced at it twice, confirmed it was indeed what he already knew, and returned it to Tang Ya: "I already know it."

?

Tang Ya was completely dumbfounded. What did he mean by "I already know it"?

Bei Bei immediately activated his Martial Soul. This was the Tang Sect's ultimate technique; could it be that he had stolen it while the Tang Sect was in decline?

Tang San was incredibly smug within the spiritual sea: "Siyuan, rely on your powerful Tang Sect abilities to snatch back the position of Tang Sect Master."

Ji Siyuan: "Purple Demon Eye, Mysterious Jade Hand, Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, and Hundred Hidden Weapon Solutions—I already knew them all."

Not only did he know them, but some were even special editions.

"How could you possibly know them?"

"Oh, someone taught me every day. Inside my head, no less."

Bei Bei and Tang Ya completely misunderstood, assuming someone had been transmitting the arts directly into his mind.

"He also said the current Tang Sect is too trashy and that the rules they've set are ridiculous, telling me to become the Sect Master and abolish them."

???

This left the two of them at a complete loss.

"Are you saying someone taught you out of thin air and told you to become the Tang Sect Master?"

"That's right."

"Do you know his name?" Tang Ya was incredibly excited; this must be a deity descending to the mortal realm.

That wasn't entirely wrong, but he wasn't the Tang San of this space-time.

"He wouldn't let me say it. He only said that when he founded it, there weren't any of these broken rules."

Everything matched up, except for the person himself.

Tang San was not that Tang San.

Tang Ya burst into tears: "Has someone finally come to save our Tang Sect?"

Bei Bei was also deeply gratified.

But Ji Siyuan's next words made them feel uncomfortable: "Uh, he also said that if you fall behind, you deserve to be eliminated."

?

This was not quite what they had expected.
