Background

Tang San grew up in Holy Soul Village as Tang Hao’s son and spent his childhood alongside Lu Chen. Before their awakening ceremony, he expected to inherit a hammer Martial Soul from his blacksmith father; instead, he awakened Blue Silver Grass, widely dismissed as a waste Martial Soul. His Innate Full Soul Power revealed exceptional potential, and he resolved to prove that a Martial Soul’s worth depended on its wielder. 2 4

He secretly possessed a second Martial Soul, the Clear Sky Hammer, which he suppressed during awakening. Tang Hao later began teaching him forging and the Disorderly Splitting Wind Hammer Method, recognizing Tang San’s talent and diligence. 4 12 14

Tang San’s rivalry with Lu Chen became a major source of motivation. After losing a sparring match despite using his Tang Sect techniques, he accepted Lu Chen’s challenge to keep improving and vowed not to lose again. 17 19

At Nuoding Academy, he formally accepted Grandmaster as his teacher. While hunting for his first Soul Ring, he absorbed an apparent thousand-year Mandala Snake ring and reached level 15, an achievement that challenged Grandmaster’s established theories. 32 45 46

Appearance

At age twelve, Tang San had grown from a thin child into a more upright and mature boy. His fair face had lost much of its childishness, and he usually wore a faint smile. 70

• Formerly described as scrawny during his early years in Holy Soul Village. 1 70
• Became noticeably more handsome and well-fed after years living alongside Lu Chen. 70
• Uses Blue Silver Grass as his visible Martial Soul. 4

Personality

Tang San is composed, earnest, and highly focused in combat. He avoids distractions during a fight, analyzes opponents’ advantages, and uses hidden weapons and movement techniques rather than relying on direct force. 17 18

He is ambitious and competitive, particularly toward Lu Chen. Defeat does not discourage him for long; instead, it strengthens his resolve to train, cultivate, forge, and eventually surpass his rival. 19 50 67

Although initially trusting of Grandmaster’s teachings, Tang San gradually recognizes that practical experience can expose flaws in theory. 45 46 68

Abilities & Skills

Blue Silver Grass

• First Soul Skill — Bind: Raises Blue Silver Grass to restrain targets. 48
• The Mandala Snake ring makes his Blue Silver Grass exceptionally tough and carries Mandala Snake venom. 48
• Its binding strength was sufficient to immobilize Xiao Chenyu, a level 11 Wolf Martial Soul Battle Soul Master. 48

• Each leaf is harder than ordinary iron. 69

Every Plant a Soldier
