At that moment, Bibi Dong discovered Xiao Wu's true identity—a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form!
Years ago, she had hunted and killed a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast. It had been Xiao Wu's mother.
She never expected Xiao Wu to dare enter the human world before even reaching maturity.
Had the Lovesick Heartbreak Red not fallen off by accident, she would have had no way to expose Xiao Wu's identity.
Even if Grandmaster had pleaded for mercy, he would have been unable to save Xiao Wu.
At the critical moment, Tang San tried to protect her at the cost of his life, but his father, Tang Hao, suddenly appeared.
His imposing aura surged forth as he directly suppressed Pope Bibi Dong and forcibly took Tang San and Xiao Wu away.
Afterward, Tang Hao demanded that Xiao Wu leave Tang San's side—so long as she remained with him, Tang San would struggle to truly grow.
Xiao Wu obediently returned to the Star Dou Forest. After Tang San awoke, he began hellish training under his father's guidance.
After his Soul Power reached level fifty, he entered a mysterious forest and awakened his true bloodline Martial Soul—the Blue Silver Emperor!
One past defeat had caused Tang San to doubt his Blue Silver Grass.
This existence, regarded by the world as a useless Martial Soul, had already been pushed to remarkable heights in his hands.
He had even considered cultivating the Clear Sky Hammer instead to make up for his lack of combat power.
But Dugu Bo had once told him that the prerequisite for Twin Martial Souls was that both Martial Souls had to be of similar quality!
The Blue Silver Grass he possessed could not possibly be ordinary!
This deduction was confirmed three years later—
What he had inherited was not ordinary Blue Silver Grass, but the emperor of all grasses, the Blue Silver Emperor!
Dugu Bo's conclusion had come from a top-secret archive of Spirit Hall.
Naturally, he assumed Grandmaster had never seen those records, so it was understandable that he did not know.
Yet... as an honorary elder of Spirit Hall, Grandmaster had been able to access every book and document within the hall!
Those so-called "Ten Core Competitivenesses of Martial Souls" and all his various theories were actually conclusions he had drawn after organizing Spirit Hall's collection.
But because he was uncertain about his understanding of Blue Silver Grass, Grandmaster had never dared assert that Tang San's Blue Silver Grass was extraordinary.
After all, "Blue Silver Grass = useless Martial Soul" was common knowledge accepted by the world.
If he judged wrongly, not only would he damage Tang San's confidence, he would also ruin his own reputation.
Whoosh—!
The Heavens and Myriad Worlds had never expected
the plot to take such a shocking turn here!
Wonderful! Truly wonderful!
If the Child of Destiny's earlier experiences had been a passionate adventure legend,
then what unfolded now
was practically a treacherous palace intrigue drama!
Who could have imagined that Xiao Wu was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form!
Heavens, a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast rebuilding itself as a human had to begin cultivating from scratch?
Had the Lovesick Heartbreak Red not accidentally fallen off, her identity might have remained undiscovered to this day.
Even more astonishing was Tang San's response—
Knowing full well that Xiao Wu was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast,
not only did he not urge her to lie low until she had cultivated enough to return,
he stubbornly insisted on keeping her at his side.
Brother, with your level-forty Soul Power,
you could barely protect yourself, much less someone else!
Still, what followed was rather unexpected.
Tang San's Blue Silver Grass was not some useless Martial Soul at all,
but a top-tier Martial Soul—the Blue Silver Emperor!
Dugu Bo had actually suspected this long ago.
After all, it was one of the basic prerequisites for the emergence of Twin Martial Souls.
He had assumed that although Grandmaster was proficient in theory, his experience was limited,
that he did not know the necessary conditions for Twin Martial Souls to appear,
and had even guessed that Tang San was the first person with Twin Martial Souls Grandmaster had encountered.
But how could he have known that Grandmaster had crossed paths with Pope Bibi Dong long ago!
Grandmaster knew full well that she possessed Twin Martial Souls!
What was more, he was an honorary elder of Spirit Hall!
That identity allowed him to freely consult every secret record and text in the hall!
No matter how gifted a person might be,
without a solid foundation of knowledge, he would ultimately never amount to much.
And what Grandmaster possessed went far beyond basic knowledge—
he had nearly encompassed the secrets, history, and insights of the entire Douluo Continent!
That also explained why, despite having Soul Power of only level thirty,
he could formulate theories that even many Title Douluo did not know.
Seeing this, the Heavens and Myriad Worlds could not help laughing speechlessly.
They had thought he had traveled far and wide and read extensively
to formulate the "Ten Core Competitivenesses" and earn the world's admiration.
Although those theories were riddled with flaws in the eyes of the Heavens,
they were still better than nothing, weren't they? At least the Douluo World treated them as sacred doctrine.
But what was the truth?
All that knowledge of yours had actually come from Spirit Hall's library!
Well, damn!
With Spirit Hall's vast repository of knowledge at his disposal, anyone
who seriously read books could probably extract some so-called "theories" from it, right?
The Heavens and Myriad Worlds suddenly considered a possibility:
Could it be...
that it was not that others could not summarize such things,
but that they were too busy cultivating to settle down and study,
causing the theoretical standards of the entire Douluo World to stagnate?
At that moment, Yu Xiaogang stepped forward!
Xiaogang waved his hand grandly. "No theoretical system? I'll fill it in!"
So he buried himself in books and compiled a pile of—
common knowledge that anyone who had read books understood.
They truly could not hold it in anymore. They really could not.
And this person could be revered as a "Grandmaster"?
What kind of Grandmaster was that?
Even the conclusion that "Twin Martial Souls have flaws, and adding Spirit Rings to the second Martial Soul can easily make the body explode"
was probably copied from Spirit Hall's texts.
And Grandmaster's proposed solution was even more simple and crude—train the body!
As long as the body was strong enough, it could withstand the impact of Spirit Rings.
Well, damn!
This guy really was something else!
Battle Through the Heavens World—
Xiao Yan furrowed his brow deeply.
"Tang San's master is no longer merely misleading his student. He has provided no real teaching at all!"
"Putting Tang San's character aside, his teacher is equally crooked—arrogant beyond measure, yet with a fate as thin as paper."
Xiao Yan had long felt disgust toward Yu Xiaogang's various actions toward Tang San.
When they first met, he had nearly taken Tang San's life.
Later, when his secret was exposed, his first reaction had actually been to murder him to silence him.
Such a cruel and ruthless man, lacking both benevolence and righteousness,
was difficult to accept even as a Child of Destiny.
But upon seeing what followed, Xiao Yan realized—
Tang San's teacher was even more outrageous!
Not every master could be as devoted as Yao Lao,
but surely one should not be completely useless to one's disciple?
He took his disciple to hunt his first Spirit Ring and nearly got him killed;
he sent his disciple to the so-called Monster Academy, where the lesson was actually "Those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre";
and the so-called special training was merely running while carrying weights!
He publicly claimed that he would cultivate the useless Martial Soul Blue Silver Grass into greatness,
yet he should have long guessed that Blue Silver Grass was no ordinary Martial Soul—
as an honorary elder who had read through Spirit Hall's entire collection,
how could he never have come across records concerning Twin Martial Souls?
Wasn't such a teacher simply misleading his disciple?
He had even shamelessly declared before:
"If Tang San only possessed the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, how could he deserve to be my disciple..."
Heavens, how could you say something like that?
Xiao Yan even suspected
that Yu Xiaogang had deliberately chosen not to reveal the true grade of Tang San's Martial Soul.
His purpose was to use the "useless Martial Soul" Blue Silver Grass
to validate his absurd theory that "There are no useless Martial Souls, only useless Spirit Masters"!
