Background

Tang San has lived two lifetimes and retains the Tang Sect's techniques and hidden-weapon knowledge. He keeps this reincarnation secret, presenting his strength as the result of diligent training while privately regarding those who covet his opportunities as future enemies. 1 5

He awakened Blue Silver Grass with Innate Full Soul Power in Holy Soul Village. Su Yuntao remembered this unusual combination for years and later reported Tang San's identity and origin to Martial Soul Hall. 11

At Shrek Academy, Tang San's predicted godhood greatly increases his standing. Yu Xiaogang sees him as the proof of his own theoretical ability, while classmates and sects seek to benefit from Tang San's future potential. 5 11

Personality

Tang San is confident in his experience, training, and Tang Sect inheritance. Before the Arena Tournament, he believes he can overwhelm peers and intends to demonstrate the true power of Tang Sect hidden weapons to anyone who obstructs him. 1

He is also cautious when the stakes are serious. He recognizes the vast gap between himself and Martial Soul Hall, worries when Tang Hao gambles away valuable resources, and initially doubts Yu Xiaogang's betting advice. 5 18 32

His outward politeness conceals intense pride and resentment. He silently marks Dai Mubai for death after Dai covets his opportunities, interprets Huo Yuhao's post-battle courtesy as mockery, and grows increasingly distrustful of Yu Xiaogang's judgment. 5 48 62

Appearance

Tang San resembles Tang Hao closely enough for Clear Sky Sect elders to suspect their relationship before his identity is confirmed through the Clear Sky Hammer. 45 47

• Often manifests Blue Silver Grass in combat. 46
• Later manifests Blue Silver Grass from both hands after recovering Twin Martial Souls. 62
• Was left wounded and unable to stand properly after Huo Yuhao stabbed his kidney with the White Tiger Dagger. 48

Abilities & Skills

Blue Silver Grass

Tang San's primary martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, used as a control-type weapon through rapid vine attacks and restraining techniques. 46 47

• Blue Silver Entanglement — Sends Blue Silver vines toward opponents to bind or restrict them. 46 47
• Mother's Entanglement — A stronger entanglement technique used after he breaks free of Huo Yuhao's initial suppression. 47
• His Blue Silver Grass attacks were repeatedly evaded by Huo Yuhao's Spiritual Detection. 46 47
• After Chapter 62, both of his martial souls are Blue Silver Grass. 62

Clear Sky Hammer

Tang San formerly possessed the Clear Sky Hammer as his second martial soul, confirming his Clear Sky Sect bloodline. 47

• Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer — A hammer technique whose successive strikes carry formidable force. 47 48
• He concealed the hammer until Huo Yuhao forced him to reveal it during their duel. 47
• The hammer was stripped from him after his Arena Tournament defeat. 50
• It did not return when his Twin Martial Souls were restored; his second martial soul became Blue Silver Grass instead. 62

Tang Sect Techniques

Tang San carries the Tang Sect's inherited skills from his previous life and relies on them to compensate for differences in cultivation. 1 5

• Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track — High-level footwork that briefly disrupts Huo Yuhao's absolute Spiritual Detection lock. 47
• Purple Demon Eye — Used to see through falsehoods, resist spiritual interference, and stabilize his mind. 47
• Mysterious Heaven Skill — Continuously circulated to endure the pressure of Huo Yuhao's spiritual assault. 47

Tang Sect Hidden Weapons

Tang San masters hidden weapons and considers them among his greatest advantages. He believes Tang Sect methods can potentially kill even gods. 5

• Dragon Whisker Needle — Used to answer Huo Yuhao's Ice Empress's Pincer attack. 47
• Launched a barrage of hidden weapons at Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo from concealment. 12
• His weapons were effortlessly neutralized by Chrysanthemum Douluo due to Tang San's low cultivation. 12
• The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect later seeks to purchase—or potentially seize—the blueprints for these weapons. 51

Equipment / Items

• Tang Sect hidden weapons — Concealed weapons including the Dragon Whisker Needle. 12 47
• Hundred Thousand Year Blue Silver Emperor soul bone — Originally intended for Tang San by Tang Hao, but gambled away by Tang Hao. 18 26

Relationships

• Tang Hao — Father. Protected Tang San from Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo, but later became cold after Tang San lost the Clear Sky Hammer and showed interest only in its return. 14 50 62
• Yu Xiaogang — Teacher. Tang San increasingly sees through Yu Xiaogang's limitations and rejects his betting guidance, though Yu Xiaogang remains determined to control his disciple. 6 37 62
• Xiao Wu — Lover. They separate when Tang San leaves with Tang Hao so he can focus on training; Xiao Wu remains devoted and vows revenge against Huo Yuhao after Tang San's defeat. 15 53
• Huo Yuhao — Arena opponent and future Tang Sect junior. Huo Yuhao admires Tang San but defeats him decisively, leaving Tang San resentful and intent on revenge. 44 48 49
• Dai Mubai — Shrek classmate. Tang San resents Dai after he probes for Tang San's secrets and opportunities. 5
• Ning Rongrong — Shrek classmate and prospective political match. She initially speaks for Tang San, while Ning Fengzhi considers marrying her to him before withdrawing support after the hammer's loss. 13 48 51
• Tang Xiao — Uncle and Clear Sky Sect Master. Advocates for Tang San's return to the sect despite resistance from the Five Great Elders. 51
• Bibi Dong — Enemy. She seeks Tang San because his foretold future role is connected to Martial Soul Hall's destruction. 5
• Qian Renxue — Enemy. She regards Tang San as a threat to Martial Soul Hall and later takes satisfaction in his defeat. 7 52

Story Role / Major Arcs

Martial Soul Hall Pursuit

Tang San becomes a target after future information reveals that he will achieve dual god positions and play a role in Martial Soul Hall's downfall. Su Yuntao's report exposes his connection to Holy Soul Village, and Old Jack directs Martial Soul Hall's agents toward Shrek Academy. 5 11

Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo attack Shrek to capture him. Tang San attempts an ambush with hidden weapons, but his strength as a Soul Grand Master is inadequate against Title Douluo-level opponents. Tang Hao's arrival prevents his capture. 12 14

Departure from Shrek

After the attack, Tang San leaves with Tang Hao to avoid bringing further danger to Shrek and to focus on becoming stronger. Xiao Wu is not permitted to accompany them, and Shrek Academy disbands to protect its students from Martial Soul Hall. 15

Arena Tournament and Defeat

Matched against Huo Yuhao in the fifth Arena Tournament, Tang San enters the battle burdened by Yu Xiaogang's confidence and his own concern for his future reputation. 44 46

Huo Yuhao's Spiritual Detection neutralizes Tang San's Blue Silver Grass offense. Tang San escalates through Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, Purple Demon Eye, hidden weapons, and finally the Clear Sky Hammer, but is ultimately defeated when the White Tiger Dagger pierces his kidney. 46 47 48

The defeat costs Tang San his Clear Sky Hammer, prompting Tang Hao, Yu Xiaogang, the Clear Sky Sect, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect to reassess his worth and support. 50 51

Twin Blue Silver Grass

Tang San later bets on Wang Dong's victory and regains Twin Martial Souls. The restoration disappoints Tang Hao because the returned second martial soul is Blue Silver Grass rather than the Clear Sky Hammer. 60 62

Trivia

• Tang San calls Dai Mubai “Boss Dai” only because Dai is currently stronger, not out of genuine submission. 5
• He believes trusting Yu Xiaogang's future betting advice would make him a fool. 62
• His future status is influential enough that Tang Ya, a later Tang Sect Master, considers him an idol and hopes to obtain his autograph. 44
