A Reward from Qian Xunji!

"How boring."

Seeing that Yu Xiaogang still had no will to resist, just like before, Qian Xunji suddenly lost interest.

The two sides were not on the same level at all.

Yu Xiaogang was not qualified to know.

"I hear you recently took in a new disciple?"

Qian Xunji's tone shifted as he looked at Yu Xiaogang with great interest. Sure enough, the moment Qian Xunji finished speaking, Yu Xiaogang's pupils shook and his body suddenly stiffened.

"How rare. I never thought there would actually be someone foolish enough to take a piece of trash like you as his master."

After a mocking sneer, Qian Xunji ordered in an icy voice.

"Tell me everything about Tang San and Xiao Wu, or I will remind you of my methods."

"Ten Core Competencies of Martial Souls."

"'Grandmaster'—what an impressive title!"

"Don't tell me you don't know where your results came from."

"Tell me honestly what I want to know, and you can continue being your 'Grandmaster.' If I find out you've hidden even the slightest thing, I will leave you without the tiniest foothold in the soul master world."

After hearing this, Yu Xiaogang trembled all over and fell into an endless struggle.

Tang San was the foundation of his comeback, the only hope he had of proving his martial soul theories and making a "king's return" to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect and the soul master world.

And Qian Xunji had grasped his weakness with equal precision.

He used the reputation Yu Xiaogang cared about most to threaten him.

All at once, it plunged him into a dilemma.

If he told him, Tang San might face endless pursuit from Spirit Hall, making it far harder for him to grow in the future. It was even possible he would die halfway.

Then his grand plan for a comeback would fail outright.

If he did not tell him, he might not even make it through today, and there would be no need to talk about a comeback. He would be trampled straight into the depths of the earth, the kind he could never crawl out of.

After hesitating for 0.25 seconds, Yu Xiaogang told him everything about Tang San and Xiao Wu in full detail.

"Twin martial souls!"

"I only thought he had the Blue Silver Emperor martial soul. I never imagined that traitor Tang Hao would have such good fortune and sire a child with twin martial souls."

"Blue Silver Emperor, Clear Sky Hammer—two top-tier weapon martial souls. In the future, he would be enough to grow to Tang Chen's level."

"No wonder... no wonder Tang Hao risked certain death to come back and take Tang San away."

After hearing everything Yu Xiaogang said, Qian Xunji immediately felt everything become clear.

Originally, after Tang Hao was seriously injured and escaped alive, he should have found a place to recuperate, then come investigate Tang San's situation after recovering.

Yet now, disregarding his own safety, he had entered danger again just to take Tang San away.

This meant he did not want Tang San to leave his sight for even a single moment.

He was this cautious all because Tang San had twin martial souls.

"With a top-tier plant-type martial soul like the Blue Silver Emperor, you actually took him to hunt a Mandala Snake for his soul ring. Your learning truly is as 'excellent' as ever!"

"Letting you read the collections of Spirit Hall and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect was simply a waste."

"But I really should thank you. You wasted Tang San's first soul ring for us."

"Although he may not necessarily be able to grow up anyway."

"Hahahahaha!"

"Impossible... impossible..."

Yu Xiaogang stood there blankly, as if he had lost his soul, and shouted with difficulty.

"Xiao San has the Blue Silver Emperor martial soul. I guessed that he had twin martial souls. Everything was just a lucky accident..."

"The soul ring I chose for him was wasting his potential..."

"Impossible... I was right. Even if it is the Blue Silver Emperor martial soul, it is still Blue Silver Grass, still so fragile that it cannot withstand a single blow. After my planning, the toughness of the Blue Silver Grass increased greatly, and Xiao San also defeated Xiao Chenyu."

"Yes, that's right!"

"I was right!"

"My plan for Xiao San was right. Blue Silver Grass should increase its poison and toughness."

Watching the half-mad Yu Xiaogang, who had fallen into self-doubt only to reaffirm himself again, Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo exchanged a glance and shook their heads in disdain.

He was exactly the same as before, without the slightest bit of improvement.

Still a piece of trash.

"Tang Hao will not come back again. Pass down my order: issue a continent-wide warrant for Tang Hao and Tang San."

"And send people to keep watch on Clear Sky Sect and Yuexuan for me. The moment you discover the slightest abnormality, report to me at once."

Qian Xunji also lost interest in Yu Xiaogang. He looked at the surrounding members of Spirit Hall and gave his orders.

"Your Holiness, isn't this causing a bit too much of a stir?"

"If those remnants of the Clear Sky Sect find out Tang San has twin martial souls, might they get ideas they shouldn't have?"

"If they come out of seclusion again and get mixed up with Tang Hao, that would be trouble for Spirit Hall too."

Chrysanthemum Douluo hesitated slightly, then asked cautiously.

"No need to worry. Twin martial souls, that's all. Who knows how long it'll take him to grow?"

"With Spirit Hall's current situation, so what if another Tang Chen appears?"

"It won't change anything at all!"

Qian Xunji waved a hand, the image of Qian Renxue, Jiang Yuan, and Na'er all advancing to Titled Douluo and sweeping across the continent surfacing in his mind as he spoke with complete confidence.

"Besides, do you really think the Upper Three Sects are united as one?"

"Ning Fengzhi and Yu Yuanzhen may not necessarily be of one mind with the Clear Sky Sect. They may not be eager to see another Tang Chen appear."

"As you command!"

Seeing Qian Xunji so full of confidence, and then thinking of Spirit Hall's current situation, Chrysanthemum Douluo no longer had any worries.

He rose and walked to the entrance of the hall. Qian Xunji suddenly stopped, looked back at Yu Xiaogang, who was still kneeling on the ground behind him, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly as a hint of mockery flashed through his eyes.

"Oh, right. There's also our 'Grandmaster.' The fact that Spirit Hall was able to confirm the intelligence about Tang San is truly thanks to the 'Grandmaster's' selfless contribution. Such spirit cannot go unrecognized by Spirit Hall."

"Spread the word properly about the 'Grandmaster's' deeds. In addition, Spirit Hall has decided to reward the Grandmaster with one hundred thousand gold soul coins."

Before leaving, Qian Xunji still did not forget to twist the knife.

Once word spread that Yu Xiaogang had revealed Tang San's information, Tang Hao and Tang San would probably hate him to death.

The relationship between the two sides had gone straight from "a teacher for a day, a father for life" to "a loving father and filial son."

When Tang San saw Yu Xiaogang next time, that scene would definitely be very interesting.

Sure enough, the moment Yu Xiaogang heard Qian Xunji's words, his face turned deathly pale, and he looked at Qian Xunji with despair in his eyes.

Qian Xunji was trying to destroy him!

Destroy every last bit of his hope!

"One hundred thousand gold soul coins. Come to Spirit City to claim them."

"This one gold soul coin is travel fare from this pope. I hope to see you in Spirit City as soon as possible."

Ding!

A gold soul coin was tossed out by Qian Xunji, striking Yu Xiaogang in the face before slowly falling to the ground with a crisp clink.

"Pfft!"

"Qian Xunji—"

Yu Xiaogang was so furious that his blood surged. He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and at last, in the final moment before he fainted, he cast Qian Xunji a hateful glance.

Unfortunately, none of the people from Spirit Hall paid him any attention at all.

After leaving behind that final sentence, the group had already returned to Spirit City.

"Although that Su Yuntao made mistakes in his work, his luck isn't bad. From today onward, he is promoted to deputy hall master of Nuoding Spirit Branch Hall, in charge of martial soul awakenings."
