Background / History

Tang San arrives at Nuoding Academy accompanied by Old Jack, but a guard initially refuses to accept his Martial Soul Hall certificate despite its confirmation of Innate Full Soul Power. Yu Xiaogang intervenes and becomes interested upon seeing Tang San's talent, though he is initially skeptical because Tang San's registered martial soul is Blue Silver Grass 4.

Yu Xiaogang later guides Tang San in absorbing a century-level Datura Snake soul ring. The process succeeds, making Tang San a Soul Master and granting him the Bind soul skill 9.

At the Martial Soul Hall registration, Tang San publicly reveals his Innate Full Soul Power. Lin Mo's Thunder Hell Vine then suppresses Tang San's Blue Silver Grass, humiliating him and leaving him with cold, murderous intent toward Lin Mo 11.

Appearance

Tang San's ordinary Blue Silver Grass martial soul is described as common roadside grass that can be stepped on at will 80.

• Martial Soul: Blue Silver Grass.
• Soul Ring: Yellow century-level first ring after absorbing the Datura Snake soul ring 9.
• Martial Soul Possession: His Blue Silver Grass becomes thicker and markedly tougher after gaining his first ring 9.

Personality

Tang San is notably composed for his age, but his restraint gives way to hostility when he or those close to him are challenged. When the academy guard rejects his certificate, he stares at him with murderous intent 4.

He is deeply protective of Xiao Wu and Yu Xiaogang. He confronts Lin Mo after Lin Mo reveals Xiao Wu's identity, threatens to leave Nuoding Academy over the treatment of Xiao Wu's teacher, and attempts to attack Lin Mo with hidden weapons when provoked 73 75.

Following his defeat by Lin Mo, Tang San experiences self-doubt over Blue Silver Grass's limitations. He regains confidence by reflecting on his Twin Martial Souls and the potential of the Clear Sky Hammer 80.
