The Challenge of Cultivation for Commoner Spirit Masters

At most, he could seek out spirit beasts with strong life force that also possessed lightning power. In nature, there were actually quite a few such spirit beasts.

Purple Thunder Vine, Lightning Thorn... all were plant-type spirit beasts suited to him.

Galloping Thunder Lone Wolf, Thunder Bird... these were animal-type spirit beasts suited to him as well.

As long as he followed a path of extreme vitality combined with lightning attributes, he would become a powerful Spirit Master who possessed both extreme vitality and extreme lightning power!

When he finally succeeded, he would return like lightning and slap Yu Xiaogang and his disciple across the face!

After hearing Zhou Tao's words, Director Su nodded.

Lightning Blue Silver Grass was a martial soul no one had ever seen before.

Although he did not know what path this martial soul should take either.

The life-system path was, at the very least, safe and reliable. As long as Blue Silver Grass possessed powerful vitality, its combat strength would not be lacking.

It was better than Yu Xiaogang's control-system path.

"Since you have your own ideas, then I wish you luck."

"If you ever want to return, you can come back to the academy anytime."

Zhou Tao nodded. "Thank you, Director Su."

Other than Yu Xiaogang, this academy was actually quite good.

After transmigrating here as an orphan, he had received a great deal of care from the academy's teachers.

Notting Academy.

Inside Yu Xiaogang's dormitory,

After the heat of the moment had faded, Tang San had regained some of his calm.

Zhou Tao's and Yu Xiaogang's words battled fiercely in his mind.

Blue Silver Grass already has binding and restraining abilities. Getting another binding Spirit Skill would be completely redundant. It should follow the life-system path.

Adding a snake Spirit Ring to Blue Silver Grass can strengthen its binding ability and toxicity. It can follow the control-system path.

The two completely different views collided fiercely in his mind, leaving his face filled with confusion.

Grandmaster was silent for a long while before suddenly speaking. "Little San, that Zhou Tao was glib-tongued and made startling claims. Do not let his words deceive you."

Tang San raised his head, looking at Yu Xiaogang with some suspicion.

Yu Xiaogang resumed that deliberately profound demeanor and said in a low voice, "Blue Silver Grass is a useless martial soul. It is naturally frail and weak in attack."

"If Blue Silver Grass follows the vitality path, then how will it attack?"

"Even if it can bind someone, what use is that if it cannot kill the enemy?"

"Zhou Tao's view may seem novel, but it is actually sophistry. If you believe him, then you will truly become useless."

"Blue Silver Grass following the control-system path is experience summarized from the cases of many Blue Silver Grass Spirit Masters."

"I am proficient in martial soul theory and understand Blue Silver Grass best. You will not find a better teacher."

"As long as you follow the control-system path and strengthen Blue Silver Grass's binding, restraint, and toxicity, these traits combined will ultimately make you a top-tier control-system Spirit Master."

"Control-system Spirit Masters hold great advantages against all kinds of Spirit Masters, including assault-system, food-system, and healing-system Spirit Masters."

"Think about it. As long as you control your opponent, then attack with your other martial soul—wouldn't that guarantee victory?"

Tang San's eyes immediately lit up. That made sense.

If he used Blue Silver Grass to control the enemy and then killed them with hidden weapons, wouldn't that mean a one-hundred-percent hit rate?

Tang San's mind was always filled with such sinister, poisonous tricks.

He abruptly raised his head and looked at Yu Xiaogang with worship in his eyes. "Grandmaster, I understand!"

Yu Xiaogang's approach suited his temperament perfectly.

"Zhou Tao dared to mock Teacher. I will definitely make him pay the price."

A trace of killing intent immediately appeared in Tang San's eyes.

Just because he had a little cleverness, he thought he was stronger than Teacher.

A guy who had only reached Rank 1 Soul Power in six years and still did not understand respect for his teacher and elders was destined to have limited achievements in the future.

He was destined to be trampled beneath Tang San's feet!

Yu Xiaogang's mouth nearly curled into a grin. He had finally ensnared this disciple.

He had to find Tang San his first Spirit Ring as soon as possible, lest Tang San regret it.

Once Tang San took the bait, it would be too late for him to turn back.

Tang San possessed Twin Martial Souls, so his future achievements would certainly be extraordinary.

Once Tang San became famous, Yu Xiaogang could use him to promote himself and clear away his reputation as a master of useless martial souls.

"Get a good night's sleep today. Tomorrow, I will take you hunting spirit beasts."

"Teacher, I understand."

Tang San nodded gently.

After bidding Director Su farewell, Zhou Tao returned to his home in Nuoding City.

"How exactly am I supposed to obtain my first Spirit Ring?"

"What suits me best must be a martial soul with extreme vitality and extreme lightning power."

"Although plant-type martial souls are easier to obtain, my combat strength is still not strong enough. Hunting spirit beasts would still be too dangerous."

"I need to find a way to strengthen my combat power."

"But without a Spirit Ring, a Spirit Master's combat strength is indeed rather weak."

Zhou Tao fell into a dilemma.

"How can I greatly increase my combat strength without a Spirit Ring?"

"I've got it—the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone mentioned in the original novel!"

The moment this thought appeared, Zhou Tao was instantly delighted.

A Spirit Bone was a treasure equivalent to a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ring.

Once fused, it could greatly strengthen Soul Power, improve one's physique, and even grant Spirit Skills.

Moreover, one could fuse with a Spirit Bone even without a Spirit Ring. This was an incredible cheat!

Zhou Tao immediately set his sights on the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone.

"Tomorrow is the best opportunity!"

"Tang San will go hunt spirit beasts tomorrow, and Tang Hao will follow him. I will go take the Blue Silver Emperor!"

"Heaven's gift, if not taken, brings harm upon oneself!"

"After all."

"My martial soul is Blue Silver Grass. I can never avoid the Blue Silver Emperor."

"The Blue Silver Grass Clan has an extremely rigid hierarchy, with only one emperor."

"If Tang San obtains the Blue Silver Emperor Inheritance, then I can only become this ungrateful wretch's dog."

"No matter how hard I struggle, I will be unable to resist the bloodline's control."

"Therefore, no matter what, I must seize the Blue Silver Emperor Inheritance as soon as possible."

Once Zhou Tao awakened the Blue Silver Grass martial soul, it was inevitable that he would stand against Tang San.

Blue Silver Grass could only have one emperor. It was a dictatorial society.

Zhou Tao had to become that emperor.

Besides, Tang San was a living beast. When Zhou Tao had argued with Yu Xiaogang today, a hidden weapon had vaguely been exposed beneath Tang San's sleeve.

Zhou Tao knew that it was the Poison Arrow Tang San had secretly forged.

If there had not been so many people watching, Tang San would definitely have struck in secret.

He was a beast who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.

With Tang San's vicious nature, he would definitely seek an opportunity to retaliate against Zhou Tao.

Therefore, in both reason and sentiment, Zhou Tao had to obtain the Blue Silver Emperor Inheritance.

"Luckily, I know the original novel. Although I have no golden finger, I possess the advantage of foresight."

"The Blue Silver Emperor is outside Holy Soul Village. I will prepare some tools today and set off tomorrow!"

Delight appeared on Zhou Tao's face, as though he had seen the dawn of hope.

But his expression immediately turned cold.

"Besides, after obtaining the Blue Silver Emperor Right Leg Bone, I must leave Nuoding City as quickly as possible."

His enemy was Yu Xiaogang, who came from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, one of the Upper Three Sects.

Although Yu Xiaogang had been driven out, that did not mean he truly had no clan backing him.
