Background / History

Tang San is a reincarnator living a second life. In his previous life, he was regarded as the Tang Sect’s most brilliant genius and retained its techniques and principles after reincarnation. 20 22

At age six, Tang San undergoes spirit awakening at Holy Soul Village alongside Lin Jing. His visible martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, leading Su Yuntao to initially dismiss him; testing reveals innate full spirit power, level 10. 4 His second martial soul is the Clear Sky Hammer, while his Blue Silver Grass is identified by Lin Jing’s system as an unawakened Blue Silver Emperor. 22 31

Tang San had repeatedly clashed with Lin Jing and Lin Jing’s followers since childhood. During the awakening ceremony, Lin Hu attacks him on Lin Jing’s signal; Tang San counters with Controlling Crane and Capturing Dragon rather than being overwhelmed. 4 Despite this hostility, he accepts Old Jack’s decision to grant the village’s sole work-study quota to Lin Jing, as Old Jack promises to seek another place for him. 5

Appearance

Tang San is a dark-skinned boy from Holy Soul Village. 4 20

• Slightly dark complexion, repeatedly contrasted with Lin Jing’s appearance. 3 20
• Six years old during his spirit awakening and initial conflict with Lin Jing. 1 4

Personality

Tang San is controlled and observant in confrontations, concealing resentment behind a calm exterior. He remains composed when Su Yuntao belittles his Blue Silver Grass, then insists on having his Spirit Power tested. 4

He holds tightly to Tang Sect principles and treats those he deems enemies without mercy. This is demonstrated when he kills the Nuoding Academy guard with a Silent Sleeve Arrow after the guard insults Old Jack, Lin Jing, and their work-study status. 32

His rivalry with Lin Jing leaves him fearful, resentful, and determined to retaliate. After being drained to level 0, he internally resolves to use future hidden weapons against Lin Jing, though Tang Hao later orders him not to provoke Lin Jing. 22 31
