Personality

He is confident in his control-type martial soul and Tang Sect secret arts, initially believing that he could defeat Qi Dao in a life-or-death battle. His defeat leaves him unwilling to accept the gap between them, though he seeks Yu Xiaogang's analysis rather than dismissing the loss. 23 24

Abilities & Skills

Blue Silver Grass

Tang San's primary martial soul is Blue Silver Grass. Though Yu Xiaogang initially treats it as a transitional martial soul, Tang San uses it as his combat focus. 21

• Can be controlled within a fifty-meter radius. 23
• Gains the Datura Snake's paralysis poison after absorbing its soul ring. 24
• Was cut apart by Qi Dao's sword during their duel. 23

Blue Silver Entanglement

Tang San's first soul skill causes Blue Silver Grass to erupt from the ground and bind an opponent. 23

• Summons more than ten rapidly growing vines. 23
• Intended to restrain opponents and inflict paralysis. 23
• Qi Dao evaded the emerging vines and severed them before they could bind him. 23

Clear Sky Hammer

Tang San possesses the Clear Sky Hammer as a second martial soul. Yu Xiaogang identifies it upon seeing Tang San summon it and warns him never to reveal it casually. 21

• Its existence confirms Tang San as a twin martial soul wielder. 21
• Yu Xiaogang considers it Tang San's future primary martial soul. 21

Tang Sect Secret Arts

Tang San retains techniques from his previous life, including movement, perception, grappling, and hidden-weapon methods. 23 24

• Purple Demon Eye — enhances his visual perception; it lets him see Qi Dao's movements but does not make his body fast enough to respond. 23 24
• Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track — evasive footwork used to retreat from Qi Dao; it fails to create sufficient distance. 23 24
• Mysterious Jade Hand and Crane Control Dragon Capture — techniques Tang San considers ineffective against Qi Dao's overwhelming speed and swordsmanship. 24
• Hidden weapons — launches stones with practiced technique, but Qi Dao shatters them with sword strikes. 23 24

Equipment / Items

• Twenty-Four Moonlit Bridges — waist-worn storage tool used to carry stones for hidden-weapon attacks. 23

Relationships

• Yu Xiaogang — teacher and mentor; Tang San fiercely defends him against Wang Sheng's criticism and seeks his guidance after losing to Qi Dao. 20 24
• Xiao Wu — dormmate and close companion; Tang San worries for her during her duel with Qi Dao and challenges Qi Dao after she is injured. 22 23
• Qi Dao — senior student and rival; Tang San loses decisively when his Blue Silver Grass, footwork, and hidden weapons fail to overcome Qi Dao's swordsmanship. 23 24
• Wang Sheng — Dorm Seven peer; their relationship becomes strained after Wang Sheng disparages Yu Xiaogang. 19 20
• Tang Hao — father; identified by Yu Xiaogang as the owner of the Clear Sky Hammer's lineage. 21

Duel with Qi Dao

Tang San watches Xiao Wu challenge Qi Dao and intervenes after Qi Dao defeats her with a scabbard strike. He uses Blue Silver Entanglement, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, and hidden weapons, but Qi Dao cuts through every attack and wounds both of Tang San's wrists with two sword strikes. 22 23

Isolation and Resolve

Following the duel, Tang San and Xiao Wu are left alone as their peers depart. Tang San recognizes that Qi Dao's strength, speed, reactions, and swordsmanship surpass his own, then turns to Yu Xiaogang for an explanation and reassurance about his future potential. 24 25
