Tang San: I Want Xiao Wu to Join Spirit Hall Too!

The teacher was joining Spirit Hall?

And he wanted Tang San to join Spirit Hall with him?

The news had indeed caught him off guard, but he soon became happy.

He had only been Yu Xiaogang's disciple for a few months, and his understanding of Spirit Hall was still positive. It was the largest Soul Master organization on the continent, a sacred place all Soul Masters yearned for.

Even his Martial Soul had been awakened with Spirit Hall's help.

And the stipend for new Soul Masters was collected from Spirit Hall as well.

When the person in charge of the Nuoding City Spirit Hall Branch had invited him before, he had been very tempted. However, he had already become Yu Xiaogang's disciple at the time, so he had turned down Spirit Hall's invitation.

Thinking of this, Tang San smiled and said sincerely, "Congratulations, Teacher! Spirit Hall is the sacred ground of Soul Masters across the continent. The fact that you were invited to join shows how highly Spirit Hall values your knowledge!"

Seeing his disciple's utterly genuine smile, Yu Xiaogang quietly breathed a sigh of relief.

He had originally worried that Tang San would resist, but it seemed he had overthought things.

Tang Hao truly had not told Tang San a single thing about the past!

Not only did Tang San not know his own background, he also did not know that Tang Hao had a grudge against Spirit Hall.

And conveniently, Yu Xiaogang had yet to tell Tang San about Spirit Hall's dark side.

"Little San, come with your teacher." Yu Xiaogang rarely showed even a trace of a smile as he continued persuading Tang San. "Spirit Hall possesses the continent's largest Martial Soul archive, as well as exchanges and discussions among countless top scholars. It will greatly benefit both your cultivation and your knowledge."

"Yes, Teacher!" Tang San agreed without hesitation, then began helping Yu Xiaogang gather the research manuscripts scattered across the table.

Halfway through, Tang San's movements suddenly froze.

He thought of someone.

Xiao Wu.

That girl had been depressed these past few days. Although Tang San did not know exactly what had happened, he could sense the immense sorrow hidden in her heart. And just now, she had already packed her things and left with Su Mo, saying she was going home...

Tang San's heart sank.

He did not want Xiao Wu to leave just like that. He did not know why; he simply wanted to keep her by his side. To see her skipping about every day, to hear her chirping voice—even if she looked at him coldly, at least... at least she would still be there.

"Little San, what is it?" Yu Xiaogang noticed that something was off with his disciple.

Tang San put down the manuscript in his hand, raised his head, and looked earnestly at Yu Xiaogang. "Teacher, this disciple has a request."

"Go ahead."

"This disciple would like to ask Teacher to help invite someone else to join the Creation Institute." Tang San's voice carried a hint of urgency that was difficult to detect. "Xiao Wu. She is also an exceptionally gifted Soul Master with Innate Full Soul Power. If she has better cultivation resources, her achievements will definitely not be low."

Yu Xiaogang pondered for a moment.

He had seen that girl Xiao Wu several times. She truly was a promising talent.

It was just that Xiao Wu clearly did not like Tang San.

Tang San was being far too eager, to the point of seeming somewhat pathetic.

"No problem!" Still, Yu Xiaogang agreed, considering it a way to help Tang San make an effort. "With Xiao Wu's talent, as long as she is willing, Spirit Hall will certainly welcome her. They might even thank us for it!"

"The most important question now is whether that girl Xiao Wu herself is willing."

"Thank you, Teacher!" A smile finally appeared on Tang San's face.

"Before, it was only the branch hall that invited Xiao Wu. If the invitation comes from people in Spirit City, I believe Xiao Wu will agree."

The master and disciple quickly finished packing, left the Teacher Building, and hurried toward the Spirit Hall branch outside the academy.

Nuoding City Spirit Hall Branch.

Elder Yun Shuo was sitting in the reception hall drinking tea. When he saw that Yu Xiaogang had packed and arrived so quickly, he could not help standing up and greeting him with a broad smile.

"Grandmaster, you truly are straightforward!"

"You are too courteous, Elder Yun Shuo." Yu Xiaogang clasped his hands, then stepped aside to reveal Tang San behind him. "This is my unworthy disciple, Tang San. He will be accompanying me to Spirit City as well."

Elder Yun Shuo sized Tang San up a few times. Though the young man had an ordinary appearance, his gaze was clear and upright, and his bearing calm and steady. Yun Shuo nodded inwardly.

"Not bad, not bad. At such a young age, he is already a Soul Master. As expected, the disciple taught by Grandmaster is no ordinary person."

"You flatter him, Elder." Yu Xiaogang humbly replied before changing the subject. "Elder Yun Shuo, I have one more presumptuous request."

"Please speak, Grandmaster."

"There is another female student at Nuoding Academy." Yu Xiaogang spoke slowly. "She possesses Innate Full Soul Power and extraordinary talent. Might I invite her to join Spirit Hall on Spirit Hall's behalf?"

Elder Yun Shuo's brows shifted slightly.

Innate Full Soul Power?

That was a genius found only once in ten thousand!

Spirit Hall had always valued recruiting geniuses. If they could recruit another Soul Master with Innate Full Soul Power in a small place like Nuoding City, this trip would earn them another merit.

"Spirit Hall naturally will not miss such a genius." Elder Yun Shuo made the decision at once. "Where is she? I will personally invite her!"

Tang San was overjoyed and quickly bowed. "I know! Xiao Wu went home with a fellow student named Su Mo. We can find her at that student's home!"

Tang San was thrilled.

He believed Xiao Wu would definitely accept an invitation from Spirit Hall's main hall.

It was a sacred land every Soul Master dreamed of, far superior to the tiny Nuoding Academy.

"Fine, then I shall make the trip!"

Elder Yun Shuo smiled.

He then called for the person in charge of the Nuoding City branch and asked where Su Mo's home was.

"Tang San, the Su Mo you mentioned is the third-year student Su Mo, correct? The one with Innate Soul Power Rank 2 and the Broken Sword Martial Soul?" The branch's person in charge, Ma Xiunuo, quickly found Su Mo's detailed records and asked Tang San for confirmation with a strange look in his eyes.

"That's right, it's him!"

Tang San nodded quickly.

"But he has no home. He is an orphan and grew up in the Nuoding City Orphanage." Ma Xiunuo said.

"So it's the Nuoding City Orphanage. Even better. Ma Xiunuo, lead the way. We'll head over immediately!" Elder Yun Shuo said with a smile.

Then the group made their way grandly toward the Nuoding City Orphanage.

Though the spectacle was somewhat excessive, Elder Yun Shuo and the others did not think there was anything inappropriate about it. After all, she was a genius with Innate Full Soul Power.

For such a genius, even a Titled Douluo personally extending an invitation would have been perfectly normal.

However, once they arrived at the orphanage, they quickly discovered that neither Su Mo nor Xiao Wu had returned there at all.

Tang San hurried back to the academy, only to find that Su Mo and Xiao Wu had not returned there either.

Moreover, both of their belongings were gone.

In the end, it was the city lord who informed Yu Xiaogang and the others that Su Mo and Xiao Wu had already left Nuoding City.
