But even if it could be copied, there was still one point he could not get around: where had this martial soul come from?

As the gods tied to those two divine artifacts, they would inevitably have that question in their hearts.

When that time came, how was Yu Changge supposed to answer?

That was also the point giving him the biggest headache right now. Otherwise, if the Asura Blood Sword really could be copied, it would be more suitable than anything.

And after copying it, he would have a perfectly sufficient reason to explain it to Yu Tianqing and Yu Shuyao.

He could simply explain that he had obtained a godly trial, and this was a god-bestowed martial soul granted to him.

If he already possessed the Asura Blood Sword martial soul, then as long as the Asura God did not kill him, there was a high chance he would obtain the Asura God's trial.

Only, with the Asura God's personality, he did not dare gamble on it.

So for now, these so-called martial soul options were only backup choices he had selected in his daily cultivation.

And aside from these lofty god-level martial souls, he had also thought of another kind of martial soul.

Body martial soul!

And the appearance of this martial soul was actually the easiest to explain.

Because the soul masters of this era had never seen anyone use a body part as a martial soul, there would inevitably have been omissions when they helped awaken martial souls.

Then, when he obtained a body martial soul, he could completely explain to his parents that this was another martial soul of his that he had suddenly discovered during cultivation.

A body martial soul would also directly avoid the family risk of "being cuckolded."

Besides, Xiao Huang was, after all, an external beast martial soul. Whether it was a strength-attack type body martial soul or a spiritual-type eye martial soul, a body martial soul would be an extremely good choice for him.

There was also one condition for twin martial souls to coexist: the quality of the two martial souls could not differ too greatly.

And even when Xiao Huang eventually evolved into the Golden Sacred Dragon, at most it would be a super martial soul. It would not reach god-level, unless... later on, he obtained some heaven-defying opportunity that allowed the Golden Sacred Dragon to evolve once again.

The growth potential of a body martial soul was extremely compatible with Xiao Huang.

If he obtained it now, then the body martial soul's starting point would be around innate rank two. But if he waited until later, after Xiao Huang evolved into the Golden Sacred Dragon, then the body martial soul's starting point would be above innate rank seven.

But then another problem arose.

Precisely because this era did not have the concept of body martial souls, no such martial soul had appeared on the Douluo Continent so far.

Or rather, someone in some corner might have awakened this martial soul, but it had not been discovered.

But for him, that was like searching for a needle in the ocean.

This was also why he still had not used the Martial Soul Replicator. Because... he truly had not found anything suitable for the time being.

Having a cheat like the Martial Soul Replicator was indeed quite good if used properly, but if it was not used well, then...

Fortunately, there was still plenty of time left for him.

Most of the time, a second martial soul was used to raise the upper limit of soul rings and to quickly increase one's rank in the later stages. And right now, even if he really copied a second martial soul, he temporarily had no use for it.

After all, he could not possibly attach soul rings to his second martial soul in advance, could he?

And if he did not attach soul rings in advance, then the usefulness of a second martial soul to him would not even compare to an external soul bone.

He was not like Tang San, who had an inheritance. The Clear Sky Hammer had no soul rings, but it could use the Chaotic Cloak Wind Hammer Technique to stack its power.

Half a month later.

Yu Tianqing and Yu Shuyao returned to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

With their strength, they could actually have returned a little earlier, but since it was rare for them to come out, they naturally traveled back while enjoying the scenery.

Once they returned to the clan, they would have to continue handling the affairs they were responsible for, as well as continue cultivating.

However, on the very day they returned, Yu Yuanzhen summoned the couple over.

Yu Tianqing and the other had originally thought this was to ask them how things had gone this time, but this time they were not going to the council hall. Instead, they were going to the inner hall, which was the courtyard where Yu Yuanzhen's family lived.

At first, Yu Tianqing did not think much of it. After all, they were merely reporting a minor matter, so there truly was no need to make a special trip to the council hall. The clan leader was probably doing it for convenience.

But when the two of them arrived at the inner hall, they realized something was wrong.

Because present were not only Yu Yuanzhen, but also his two sons, Yu Xiaogan and Yu Xiaogang, as well as the old clan leader, Yu Xiaolong.

"Clan leader, did you call us here this time because you need us to report on the trip to Spirit Hall?" Yu Tianqing and Yu Shuyao said after bowing.

Yu Yuanzhen shook his head. "We'll discuss that matter later."

Then Yu Yuanzhen looked at Yu Xiaogang and said, "Xiaogang, hurry up and apologize to the two of them!"

As soon as these words came out, Yu Tianqing and Yu Shuyao, as well as Yu Xiaogang himself, were stunned.

He had been specifically called out by Yu Yuanzhen, but no reason had been given. And now he was being told to apologize to Yu Tianqing and his wife. What did that mean?

Before they could speak, Yu Yuanzhen explained on his own, "Half a month ago, before Yu Changge and the others left the clan, did you go to find him in private and even get into a conflict with him?"

Yu Xiaogang retorted, "Father, just for such a trivial matter? I only told him not to go to Spirit Hall. Both of our martial souls are Piglet Martial Souls, and they are the only two external beast martial souls on the continent."

"Does he think that by going to Spirit Hall, he'll be able to find a way to improve his martial soul? In my view, that's wishful thinking. With that time, he might as well spend more effort cultivating. Perhaps with time, he could break through to a higher realm!"

"And what did he say about me? He even used that line about my theories being useful to retort against me, and even said I was afraid—afraid that after he left, the rest of the clan would only laugh at me alone, so I didn't want him to leave."

Yu Xiaogang looked at Yu Yuanzhen with a flushed face. "Father! He's judging a gentleman's heart with his own petty mind! I'm your son. How could I think like that? And now, for the sake of an outsider, you actually want me to apologize to them? Why should I?"

Hearing this, Yu Tianqing and his wife's expressions also turned cold.

"Shut up!" Yu Yuanzhen roared angrily. "It's precisely because you're my son that I know exactly what you're thinking!"

"For an outsider, you say? First and foremost, I am the clan leader of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan. Only after that am I your father!"

"They're not outsiders either. They're members of our clan, and both of them are Soul Saint powerhouses. And you? Right now, your soul power hasn't even reached rank five!"

"You want to cultivate, you want to become a combat soul master—I don't object. You want resources, I give you resources. Even when those clan elders object, I still give them to you."

"But what about you? You're the one who can't see yourself clearly. You're the one with no self-awareness. For an ordinary person, having less than rank-one innate soul power means they don't even have the possibility of becoming a soul master."

"Even with the clan's resources supporting you, even if you spend a huge amount of time cultivating, what level can you ultimately reach?"

"I have never tried to discourage you, but of all the things you should never have done, you should never have accused someone who works harder than you do!"

"Yu Changge likewise hasn't given up on cultivation. Instead, he's balancing it with studying and researching theory. Perhaps later, he can find a path of his own."

"But you? What have you done?"

Yu Yuanzhen had not originally wanted to say these things, but Yu Xiaogang was his son after all. There were some words he had to say; perhaps they could still save him.

Loyal advice grated on the ear.
