The Tang Sect had always specialized in poisons and Hidden Weapons, so poison was something Tang San was very familiar with and fond of. He did not doubt it in the slightest and readily nodded, saying he would take the poison-control path.
With his development route decided, it was time to hunt Spirit Beasts. This was also another classic famous scene.
At this point, they had to criticize that useless Yu Xiaogang again. That guy really had no idea of his own limits!
He was only level twenty-nine, and his martial soul was a pig that could do nothing but fart. His combat ability was abysmal, yet he still dared to take Tang San straight into the Soul Hunting Forest without calling anyone else along.
The key was that he acted extremely confident the whole way, walking into the Soul Hunting Forest with his hands behind his back and his head held high. Then, upon encountering a Spirit Beast over four hundred years old, he was scared into fleeing for his life.
The women: ???
Yu Xiaogang was only level twenty-nine?
The women were initially startled, but after thinking it over, they found it reasonable.
His theoretical knowledge was full of holes. It would have been strange if his Soul Power Level were high.
Mm, level twenty-nine was perfectly reasonable.
Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong both wore dark expressions and had no desire to speak.
How embarrassing!
They could already imagine how lively Tieba would become after the diary ended.
There was no need to say it—they would definitely all be discussing them, talking about just how blind this Pope/Dean had to be to fall for such trash.
Although this would not shake their feelings for Xiao Gang, it was still... sigh...
Aside from initially letting out two farts without distinguishing friend from foe, Yu Xiaogang simply lay there playing dead. In the end, Tang San used the lightness skill and Hidden Weapons from the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record to kill that Datura Snake.
And that was where Tang San's killing intent came from.
There were no Hidden Weapons on the Douluo Continent, and from his perspective, he was merely a six-year-old child whose father was only an ordinary blacksmith. It was clearly unreasonable for him to know such things. To protect his secret, he once again developed killing intent toward Yu Xiaogang.
What? You say that once a teacher, always a father?
Sorry, Young Master Tang said: That was just something I said casually. Why did you take it seriously?
Seeing this, the women felt the urge to criticize him again. This Tang San really was full of things worth mocking!
Actually, this was not unusual in itself.
Hu Liena, Dugu Yan, and the others could all accept killing someone to silence them in order to protect their own secrets.
As for Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong, there was even less need to mention them. They were decisively ruthless.
But the problem was, Tang San had only acknowledged this father not long ago.
He had even kowtowed three times.
One moment, he had solemnly acknowledged someone as his father; the next, he wanted to kill him to silence him. This...
At that moment, forget everyone else—even Xiao Wu felt a chill run down her spine.
At the same time, she began to deeply doubt those words that had once moved her so profoundly.
If he could harbor killing intent toward a teacher who was like a father, then what was she, his little sister, worth?
If one day...
As Xiao Wu thought of this, she suddenly gave a bitter smile, then cursed herself for being foolish.
Did she even need to think about it?
Tang Hao's existence had already determined what kind of ending awaited her and Tang San.
If it had been before, she might have blindly believed in Tang San and made excuses for him in her heart. But now...
She truly could not find any. Before a Hundred Thousand Year Spirit Ring and Spirit Bone, she could not think of any reason why Tang San as he was now would spare her.
Of course, as the saying went, good people did not live long while calamities lasted a thousand years. A scumbag like Yu Xiaogang would certainly not go offline just like that.
After weighing things up, Tang San ultimately did not make a move. It was not because he had grown a conscience, but because he decided to test him first.
If Yu Xiaogang had not seen it, or had seen it but not cared, then this useless father could still be kept around. But if he had seen it and started asking questions, then... sorry.
Yu Xiaogang, you had chosen the Way of Seeking Death!
The women: ...
You were quite kind, even giving him a chance.
The result was obvious. Yu Xiaogang only cared about theories. In his eyes, even Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong were less important than theories, much less mere Hidden Weapons.
Bibi Dong/Liu Erlong: You're talking nonsense!
Without dwelling on the Hidden Weapons, Yu Xiaogang became a little clearer-headed and turned his attention to that Datura Snake, wanting Tang San to absorb its Spirit Ring.
Tang San then raised a question, asking whether a plant-type martial soul could absorb an animal Spirit Ring.
That question seemed to hit Yu Xiaogang's sweet spot. His head no longer hurt, his voice became strong, and he began talking at length.
He even brought up his nonsensical Ten Core Competencies, saying that after years of research, he had discovered this earth-shattering theory: animals and plants could absorb each other.
Listen to that. What the hell was that supposed to mean?
He claimed he had researched that? Who the hell did not know that already?
Being able to absorb one was one thing; whether it was suitable was another.
It was like saying Bibi Dong, the Pope, could go out onto the streets and beg for food. Could she? Of course she could. Hold out a hand, open her mouth—ordinary people could do that too.
But was there any need for it?
Such a blunt analogy made the women burst out laughing, while Bibi Dong alone remained dark-faced.
That bastard. He could have used anyone as an example, so why did he have to drag me into this?
What did I ever do to you?
Hmph, just wait. Once Nana brings you back, I will definitely have a proper talk with you.
If you piss me off, I'll give you the secret room treatment.
Su Ye: ?? Now that could work!
Anyone with even a little knowledge knew that Spirit Rings had to match one's own martial soul. For example, dog with dog, wolf with wolf.
Or they needed to share the same attribute, such as elemental attributes like ice and fire.
What the Blue Silver Emperor should have absorbed most naturally were Spirit Rings with the Life God attribute. Yu Xiaogang had truly ruined Tang San by doing this.
Tang San only survived because his foundation was strong and he possessed Blue Silver Emperor bloodline. Otherwise, if the Spirit Ring backlash truly occurred, it would not be a joke. Forget whether it was suitable—one mistake and he could lose his life.
However, Yu Xiaogang clearly was not doing this for the first time. He himself was a glaring example.
A perfectly good Golden Sacred Dragon martial soul had been turned into something pig-like by him. What a pity.
Golden Sacred Dragon?
That useless man's martial soul was a Golden Sacred Dragon?
All the women were shocked, to the point that they doubted whether they had read it wrong.
Wasn't that useless man's martial soul a pig that could only fart?
How had it become a Golden Sacred Dragon again?
Although they did not know what kind of martial soul the Golden Sacred Dragon was or how powerful it might be,
its name alone made it sound extraordinary. After all, dragon-type martial souls were never weak.
Yet this useless man still had the nerve to spout nonsense like, "There are no useless martial souls, only useless soul masters." What was he thinking? Wasn't he saying that he himself was useless?
The key was that Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong had actually bought into it. Not only did they not think there was anything wrong with it, they even thought he was talented and exceptional. There really was no helping them.
Honestly, those two women could go apply for Blind Douluo certification now. They would definitely pass.
Bibi Dong: ...
Liu Erlong: ...
"Pfft!"
