Background
Tang San possesses Twin Martial Souls: Blue Silver Grass—later awakened as the Blue Silver Emperor—and the Clear Sky Hammer. He also has Innate Full Soul Power and knowledge, martial arts, and hidden-weapon techniques from a past life. 13 218 311
He was raised by Tang Hao, whom he believed to be an ordinary blacksmith until Yu Xiaogang revealed that Tang Hao was the famed Clear Sky Douluo and a former member of the Clear Sky Sect. Tang Hao had already died in the Star Dou Great Forest by the time Tang San learned this. 96 61
Tang San became Yu Xiaogang's student and trained at Shrek Academy alongside Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar, Xiao Wu, and others. His early cultivation path centered on Blue Silver Grass, while Yu Xiaogang urged him to delay adding rings to the Clear Sky Hammer until he could equip it with high-level rings. 93 172 173
Appearance
After his three years on Sea God Island, Tang San returned as a handsome youth with long azure hair flowing down his back. 311
- Long azure hair after his return from Sea God Island. 311
- Uses Blue Silver Grass or the Blue Silver Emperor as his primary Martial Soul. 57 311
- Wields the Clear Sky Hammer as his Second Martial Soul. 123 204
- Bears the External Soul Bone known as the Eight Spider Lances. 203 206
Personality
Tang San is determined, competitive, and intensely unwilling to accept defeat. After his first encounter with Jun Xuehan, he resolved that there could be “no turning back” between them and considered taking the risk of absorbing a Soul Ring beyond his level to surpass him. 93
He is also strategically minded. During the Elite Tournament, he arranged for teammates to use attrition warfare against Jun Xuehan before his own match. He later demonstrated political pragmatism by accepting Emperor Dai Tian's limited support for operations involving the City of Slaughter. 199 200 416
Despite his confidence, Tang San's defeats by Jun Xuehan repeatedly shook his self-belief. Learning that his Clear Sky Hammer's ring configuration had left him far behind Jun Xuehan caused his confidence to collapse, though he continued pursuing greater power and revenge. 205 218 438

Story Role / Major Arcs
First Conflict with Jun Xuehan
Tang San first met Jun Xuehan while competing for a Board Crystal in Suotuo City. He proposed settling the dispute under Soul Master World rules, fought with Blue Silver Grass and Parasitism, then used hidden weapons after Xiao Wu was defeated. Jun Xuehan shattered Tang San's Mysterious Jade Hand and inflicted devastating injuries with the Reverse Scale God Slaying Spear. 57 58
Shrek Academy and the Clear Sky Hammer
After Xiao Wu was taken by the Titan Giant Ape, Tang San learned both that she was a Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast in human form and that Tang Hao was the Clear Sky Douluo. He resolved to find Xiao Wu and later began adding Soul Rings to the Clear Sky Hammer to gain strength against Jun Xuehan. 95 96 172
Tang San's first use of the Clear Sky Hammer against Jun Xuehan ended in defeat because the hammer had no Soul Rings and could not match the Silver Dragon Spear. Jun Xuehan later attempted to kill him, but Meng Shu's intervention allowed Tang San to be taken away for treatment. 123 124
All-Continent Elite Soul Master Tournament
Tang San directed Shrek Academy's attrition strategy against Jun Xuehan and entered their match as a Level 60, five-ring Soul King. He revealed five Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Rings on his Clear Sky Hammer, but Jun Xuehan's Hundred-Thousand-Year ring and Second Martial Soul exposed the gap between them. 199 203 204 205
The battle left Tang San severely injured, with his Clear Sky Hammer shattered and his confidence broken. He later acknowledged that Jun Xuehan had never needed to fight at full strength. 206 218
Sea God Island and Return
After the tournament, Bo Saixi took Tang San to Sea God Island, where he survived, recovered, and became a seven-ring Soul Sage. His Blue Silver Grass awakened into the Blue Silver Emperor, his Soul Ring ages improved, and he received a god-level senior's trident in exchange for recovering a lost item. 245 311
Tang San later fought Jun Xuehan outside Heaven Dou City with the Sea God Trident. Although the trident allowed him to repel Jun Xuehan briefly, his inferior mastery of it left him at a disadvantage. He escaped after the trident's residual divine power made it impossibly heavy. 319 320
Tang Sect and the Heaven Dou Crisis
Tang San became Sect Master of the renamed Tang Sect. During the struggle over Heaven Dou, he led Tang Sect members into the imperial palace, fought Wind Snow Pavilion's Titled Douluo, and was accused of assassinating Emperor Xue Ye. 337 360 361
After being pursued by Jun Xuehan, Tang San escaped through a river using Blue Silver Grass. Tang Xiao publicly defended him, though Tang San could not explain why he had forcibly entered Xue Ye's bedchamber. 362
Jialing Pass and Divine Ascension
At Jialing Pass, Tang San displayed seven black and two red Soul Rings while fighting Golden Crocodile Douluo. Jun Xuehan's return interrupted the battle; Tang San was pierced and pinned by the Silver Dragon Spear but escaped with the Heart of the Sea God. 434 435
On Sea God Island, Tang San continued to seek revenge for his defeats. He eventually inherited the Sea God's divine rank and appeared above Spirit City to challenge Jun Xuehan to their final battle. 438 440
