Ancient Texts? What Ancient Texts?
After hearing Tang Ya's words, Bei Bei frowned even more deeply.
The beliefs he developed from childhood are being gradually shaken.
Tang Ya's words were straightforward and sharp, yet every sentence hit the nail on the head, leaving no room for easy rebuttal.
Although he didn't know which ancient book Tang Ya had read it in, she spoke with absolute certainty, as if she had witnessed it herself.
"Also, the rankings in ancient books."
Tang Ya chuckled again, a hint of amusement in her voice, "The ancient texts rank Tang San fourth, and even say that Tang San's ancestors weren't of high quality. It's fortunate that the ancient texts didn't record his name, otherwise they would definitely be torn to shreds."
"To be honest, I really didn't know that Senior Zhu Zhuqing became Titled Douluo at the age of 24."
Tang Ya's eyes held a hint of admiration. "I always thought that Tang San was the fastest cultivator among the Seven Monsters, but I never expected that Senior Zhu Zhuqing was the hidden master."
Bei Bei nodded; he was also surprised after listening.
The Shrek's records mostly document Tang San's glorious deeds, while there are relatively few records about the other six members of the Monster Association, especially details such as their cultivation speed, which are rarely mentioned.
"I even saw a race called the Merfolk Tribe, one of whom was the Sea Maiden Douluo. She was granted a title when converted to human age, which is less than 20 years old. It's simply outrageous."
The two discussed the contents of the diary, but Tang Ya did most of the talking while Bei Bei listened.
The more Bei Bei listened, the more she felt that Tang Ya's perspective was both unconventional and insightful. Many things that they took for granted seemed completely different when Tang Ya explained them from a different angle.
"Speaking of which, where did you find this ancient book? The person who wrote it must know far too much, right?"
Bei Bei suddenly said, "He seems to know everything about the secrets from ten thousand years ago, even the age conversion of the Sea Maiden Douluo. Just who is the original author of the ancient book?"
Tang Ya shook her head, feigning mystery. "Who knows? It must be a big shot, at least Super Douluo level, otherwise how could they know so many secrets?"
Actually, when I first got my hands on these ancient books, I was skeptical, but now it seems they're probably true. Otherwise, how could they know so many historical details that have long been lost to time?
Then, Bei Bei asked about some clues regarding the so-called ancient book in Tang Ya's possession, saying he could mobilize people to help search for it.
Tang Ya gave a perfunctory answer and let it go. After all, there were no so-called ancient books; he had only seen these things in his forestry diary.
The two talked more and more about the rights and wrongs of history, Bei Bei found that the definition of good and evil didn't seem so important anymore.
Star Dou Forest, Lake of Life.
Gu Yuena stood quietly by the lake, her long, silvery-white hair swaying gently in the breeze.
Her gaze fell into the void, as if piercing through layers of space.
After a long while, she slowly spoke, her voice clear and cold, carrying the vicissitudes of time.
"That's an interesting perspective."
"The victors write history; this is the norm in the world. The grudges and rights and wrongs of ten thousand years ago are meaningless today."
She raised her hand, stroking the surface of the lake, creating ripples.
Several figures were faintly visible on the water's surface.
There's Bibi Dong, clad in a Pope robe with a cold and aloof demeanor; Qian Renxue, adorned in angelic Sea God's Trident with unparalleled elegance; Tang San, wielding the Trident of the Sea God with an indifferent expression; Zhu Zhuqing, agile and resolute in her eyes; and the Sea Maiden Douluo, playing the Sea Demon Flute with a smile in her eyes.
"Bibi Dong, who was granted a title at the age of 35, is indeed one of the best among human geniuses."
Gu Yuena's tone was calm. "Twin Martial Souls allows one to rise against the odds without a teacher, and one's temperament, talent, and resilience are all top-notch."
If she hadn't been trapped by hatred and hadn't encountered Tang San, the chosen pawn of this world, her achievements would have been far greater than this.
"Qian Renxue, bestowed with a title at the age of 20, is the perfect successor to the Angel God."
She paused, a barely perceptible hint of regret flashing in her eyes. "He had the temperament and the talent, but unfortunately, he lacked luck. Born into an imperial family and raised amidst power struggles, he ultimately became a victim of power."
As for Tang San, Gu Yuena merely glanced at him indifferently without offering any further comment.
A chess piece chosen by multiple planes and gods simultaneously possesses talent, but is mostly blessed by luck.
His existence is itself a manifestation of the Planar Will; there's not much more to say about it.
"Zhu Zhuqing is an unexpected surprise."
Gu Yuena's gaze fell on the petite figure, and she nodded slightly. "To have reached this level with Agility Attack System Martial Soul is entirely due to one's own hard work and dedication; it's truly remarkable."
But when her gaze fell upon the Sea Maiden Douluo, her eyes showed a hint of emotion.
"This little girl from the Merfolk Tribe has truly amazing talent."
Gu Yuena said softly, "Merfolk Tribe grow slowly, and accumulating Soul Power is inherently more difficult than for humans. For her to break through to the title level at this age would make her a top genius in any race and any era."
The reflections on the water gradually faded, and the water returned to calm.
Gu Yuena withdrew her gaze and looked in the direction of Shrek City, her eyes gleaming.
"Geniuses from ten thousand years ago each had their own path."
Gu Yuena murmured to herself, "Ten thousand years from now, two variables have appeared simultaneously. This game of chess has only just begun."
She was curious to see what other surprising statements Lin Ye would make next.
[After writing about the five youngest Titled Douluo ten thousand years ago, we'll move on to ten thousand years later, which is now.]
This era also produced a plethora of geniuses, and it also produced five monsters with titles that were ridiculously young, each one more outrageous than the last.
Continuing on, the order is still from oldest to youngest, based on the age of the title.
First, in fifth place, is Jiang Nannan, the Soft Rabbit Douluo, who became Titled Douluo at the age of twenty-six.
Honestly, in the eyes of most Soul Master, the Soft Bone Rabbit Martial Soul is just a pretty face. It's cute and agile, but in terms of offensive power, it's far inferior to orthodox Agility Attack System like the Hell Spirit Cat or the Ghost Leopard. Its potential seems quite low.
In the history of Soul Master World, it has never had a place among the top agility-attack Martial Soul. But Jiang Nannan refused to believe it and managed to turn what others considered a bad hand into a winning one.
This girl came from a truly humble background; her parents were ordinary people, and her family was dirt poor.
When she first entered Shrek, she couldn't even afford the cheapest Soul Tool. While others ate nutritious meals in the cafeteria or meditated in their private training rooms after class.
She squatted in a corner of the training ground to practice her movements until she was completely exhausted and could barely stand. Only then did she slowly walk back to her dormitory, leaning against the wall.
She firmly believed in one principle: the core of the Soft Bone Rabbit a nickname for a rabbit) is not attack, but softness, deflection, and speed.
While others train their Soul Power to increase their attack power, she focuses on improving her flexibility and reaction speed, training her bones to bend at will. She can deflect most attacks from other Soul Master of the same level by turning to the side, without even touching their clothes.
