Background / History

Tang San entered Spirit City with Shrek Academy as a widely known control-system Soul Master called the “Thousand Hands Asura.” Though calm in public, he immediately noticed Xiao Wu’s discomfort under Spirit Hall’s scrutiny and stayed close to her without forcing her to explain herself. 10

At Grand Dao Internet Cafe, Tang San became one of Lin Chuan’s most significant early customers. The game sealed his Mysterious Heaven Skill, Martial Souls, and familiar hidden-weapon techniques by placing him in a monkey body, leaving observation and adaptation as his main advantages. His first death became a tactical lesson rather than a setback. 10 11

After repeatedly challenging the White-Clothed Scholar and its White Snake second phase, Tang San learned to avoid greedy attacks, exploit precise openings, and treat death as information. His eventual victory earned him the stage achievement “Two-Stage Insight” and the defensive counterattack technique Edge-Breaking Intent. 18 19

Tang San later entered Heaven Dou Royal Academy with Xiao Wu, Ning Rongrong, and Ma Hongjun, passing the Education Committee’s assessment and advancing under Zhi Lin’s pressure. Political interference by Prince Xue Xing and Dugu Bo forced the group to withdraw despite their acceptance, after which Liu Erlong admitted them to Blue Tyrant Academy and formed the Shrek Special Training Class. 110 111 116

His dangerous agreement with Dugu Bo led him to the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. By diagnosing Dugu Bo and Dugu Yan’s poison-related conditions, creating antidotes, and treating Dugu Bo’s accumulated toxins, Tang San earned access to the valley’s immortal herbs. He then survived the simultaneous consumption of the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot. 119 120 121

Tang San’s hidden Clear Sky Hammer lineage became public after his duel with Tai Nuo. Tai Tan recognized him as Tang Hao’s son and the Strength Clan’s Young Master, giving Tang San his first substantial clues about his father, the Clear Sky Sect, and the clans’ conflict with Spirit Hall. 129 130

During Spirit Hall’s hunt for Xiao Wu, Tang San fought through the Dual Poles Stillness Domain to protect her. Xiao Wu ultimately sacrificed herself to save him, leaving him with her Spirit Ring and right-arm Spirit Bone; Bai Jin preserved a faint remnant of her life in Soft Bone Rabbit form. 126 127

Personality

Tang San is methodical, restrained, and exceptionally difficult to discourage. He observes unfamiliar systems before committing to action, then turns failures into practical corrections. Rather than merely memorizing the White-Clothed Scholar’s attacks, he incorporated each death into a revised strategy until he achieved victory. 11 18

He is cautious even when accepting assistance. When Bai Jin gave him an antidote for Xiao Wu, Tang San tested it himself before allowing her to take it. His caution is practical rather than distrustful for its own sake. 125

As a leader, Tang San expects precision from both himself and his teammates. After Blue Tyrant defeated Oakland Academy without him, he focused on the small mistakes that delayed the victory instead of celebrating the result. 149

Tang San is fiercely protective of Xiao Wu and repeatedly places himself between her and danger. His composure breaks only when he cannot prevent her sacrifice, after which restoring her becomes central to his goals. 125 126 127

Abilities & Skills

Blue Silver Grass / Blue Silver Emperor

Tang San’s primary Martial Soul is Blue Silver Grass, later identified in its evolved Blue Silver Emperor form. It is the foundation of his control-system fighting style.

• Spreads through terrain to bind opponents, obstruct movement, create traps, and redirect attacks. 69 108
• Can divide an enemy formation by creating nets, prisons, or layered bindings rather than pursuing every opponent directly. 69 150
• Was used to distribute Zhi Lin’s Soul Power pressure through cracks in the floor during his breakthrough. 110
• Its range, darkness, and coordination improved after his advancement under pressure. 110
• Blue Silver Emperor and Blue Silver Domain allow him to gather information through surrounding vegetation, including tracking broken grass and bloodstains. 125
• Can be severed voluntarily when an opponent’s lightning or force would otherwise spread through its connection. 131

Clear Sky Hammer

Tang San’s concealed second Martial Soul is the Clear Sky Hammer, inherited through his father Tang Hao.

• Its appearance confirmed Tang San’s connection to the Clear Sky Sect and caused Tai Tan to recognize him as the Strength Clan’s Young Master. 130
• Though it had no attached Spirit Rings when publicly revealed, its pressure surpassed many high-level Martial Souls. 130
• Tang San used it to strike a Soul Power cage trapping Xiao Wu while injured within the Dual Poles Stillness Domain. 126

Tang Sect Arts

Tang San retains the training of the Tang Sect even when its techniques cannot be directly used.

• Mysterious Heaven Skill — Internal cultivation method used to regulate breathing, resist poison, guide lightning through his body, and endure pressure. 110 119 132
• Purple Demon Eyes — Enhanced perception used to study enemy rhythms, identify attack trajectories, detect illusion flaws, and observe rapid movements. Its perception improved further after consuming Full Moon Wearing Autumn Dew. 15 121 129
• Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track — Footwork emphasizing evasive movement, redirection, and attacking weaknesses. 18 129
• Mysterious Jade Hands — Jade-hued hand technique used during medicinal work and close combat. 119 120
• Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon — Force-redirection technique used alongside Blue Silver Grass and the Eight Spider Spears. 129
• Hidden weapons — Includes silver needles, Mother-and-Child Soul-Chasing Death Bombs, and Yama’s Invitation. 119 126 156

Eight Spider Spears

Tang San possesses eight External Soul Bone spider spears, strengthened by the immortal herbs and Ice-Fire Body Tempering.

• Increase his mobility, reach, and available attack angles. 129
• Can be anchored into terrain to launch him away from lethal attacks. 156
• Combined with Blue Silver Grass and Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon to trap Tai Nuo without inflicting a finishing injury. 129
• Were partially forced open against the Dual Poles Stillness Domain, allowing Tang San to damage the cage around Xiao Wu. 126

Ice-Fire Body Tempering

After consuming the Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass and Infernal Delicate Apricot, Tang San’s body was tempered by opposing extreme forces.

• Grants strong resistance to fire, ice, poison, and physical damage. 121
• Allows him to withstand attacks that would cripple an ordinary Soul Elder, including Tai Nuo’s Soul King-level strikes. 129
• Does not grant special resistance to lightning; Tang San must still disperse electrical force through his cultivation and Blue Silver Grass. 131 132

Edge-Breaking Intent

A fragmentary body-protecting counterattack insight obtained from the internet cafe’s reward draw.

• Gathers blood energy and Soul Power just before a heavy strike lands. 19
• If timed correctly, it withstands the blow, disrupts the opponent’s momentum, and creates a counterattack opening. 19
• Its follow-up perception improves the chance of striking when an enemy’s old force is exhausted and new force has not yet formed. 19
• Requires exact timing, consumes stamina and Soul Power, and cannot protect against an ambush he has not detected. 19

Illusion Resistance and Spiritual Combat

Tang San’s Purple Demon Eyes, Mysterious Heaven Skill, and disciplined observation give him strong resistance to mental attacks.

• Identified Shi Nian’s false Xiao Wu through the missing wrist mark caused by hidden-weapon practice. 155
• Broke layers of Remnant Dream after recognizing that his Mysterious Heaven Skill circulated normally within the illusion. 156
• Used Purple Demon Divine Light to stun Shi Nian before killing the Soul Sage with Yama’s Invitation. 156
• The confrontation significantly advanced his Microcosm Realm. 156

Equipment / Weapons / Items

• Grandmaster — Mentor and tactical teacher. Grandmaster recognizes Tang San’s potential, guides his team training, and trusts him to endure difficult tests independently. 110 116
