Luo Fan's Second Soul Skill!

"Clear Sky Douluo!"

Hearing Tang Hao announce his identity, Yu Xiaogang bowed slightly in salute.

In truth, when he had seen Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer martial soul, Yu Xiaogang had more or less guessed Tang San's identity.

After all, the Clear Sky Hammer, the surname Tang, and living in a remote mountain village—it would have been hard not to figure it out.

But he had not expected the Clear Sky Douluo to appear before him in person.

"Master, I think Little San has taken a rather severe blow this time. I'll leave it to you to help him pull himself together!"

"When necessary, you may reveal some information to him!"

"Also, I've prepared some things that can help him improve his strength. Give them to him when the time is right!"

"I have matters to attend to, so I'll be leaving for a while!" Tang Hao said.

After briefly explaining everything, Tang Hao raised a hand and tossed something over.

Yu Xiaogang hurriedly caught it. Looking down at it, his pupils contracted slightly!

This was actually Spirit Hall's Papal Token!?

After throwing down the token, Tang Hao turned to leave!

"Wait. What are your thoughts on Luo Fan?" Seeing Tang Hao about to leave, Yu Xiaogang hurriedly suppressed his thoughts and asked him.

Hearing this, Tang Hao's steps paused slightly.

"That boy Luo Fan was a fairly kind-hearted child back in Holy Soul Village!"

"He can now serve as Little San's whetstone!" Tang Hao gave his assessment, then walked out of Yu Xiaogang's room!

Yet as he left, a regretful voice lingered behind.

"What a pity. If you had taken him in back then, Master, he would have been Little San's fellow disciple!"

Yu Xiaogang: "..."

Yu Xiaogang's mouth twitched slightly. If you wanted to state your opinion, then state it. Why stab someone right in the heart?

Was it that I didn't want to take Luo Fan as my disciple?

I had brought it up several times myself, but Luo Fan simply had no intention of agreeing, alright?

Though he grumbled inwardly, Yu Xiaogang truly did regret it now!

If he had known Luo Fan would turn out to be this outstanding, he should have valued him more from the start instead of merely saying a few casual words without taking any real action.

The next day, Yu Xiaogang found Tang San.

He had a proper talk with him about his other martial soul, the Clear Sky Hammer. This was no ordinary hammer martial soul—it was the Clear Sky Hammer, known as the number one Tool Martial Soul in the world!

Tang San was greatly shocked. His hammer martial soul had such an impressive origin?

Yu Xiaogang then explained that according to his theoretical knowledge, the qualities of Twin Martial Souls could never differ too greatly. In other words, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass absolutely could not be a worthless martial soul that was merely Blue Silver Grass!

Tang San's spirits immediately soared. His Blue Silver Grass was extraordinary too? Was it a martial soul of the same quality as the Clear Sky Hammer?

Finally, Yu Xiaogang told him that his father, Tang Hao, had come to see him the previous night and entrusted Tang San to his care. More importantly...

Tang San's father was no ordinary person either—he was a Titled Douluo!

This made Tang San abruptly rise to his feet, feeling his heart swell with boundless pride!

Alright, so that was how it was?

He had originally thought that he, Tang San, was the inspirational underdog protagonist of a hot-blooded story, rising out of a little mountain village. Who would have thought he was actually heaven's favored son?

His father was a Titled Douluo. He possessed Innate Full Soul Power, Twin Martial Souls, one of which was the Clear Sky Hammer, known as the number one Tool Martial Soul in the world, while the other, Blue Silver Grass, was undoubtedly of equal quality!

"Teacher, you... you aren't lying to me, are you? If my Blue Silver Grass truly has a quality comparable to the Clear Sky Hammer, then why can't I even compare to Luo Fan?"

Although his heart was brimming with pride, Tang San suddenly looked at Yu Xiaogang with suspicion!

Was this the boy who cried wolf? Had he said the same things so often that people had started doubting him?

Seeing Tang San's suspicious attitude, Yu Xiaogang did not know whether to laugh or cry.

When he had fooled—no, when he had comforted Tang San before, he had indeed tried his best to say whatever sounded good!

But this time, everything he said was true, and Tang San was doubting him instead?

"Little San, have I ever lied to you all this time?" Yu Xiaogang asked Tang San in return.

Tang San pondered those words for a moment.

Indeed, although his teacher's judgments about Luo Fan had always been wrong, he had never actually lied to Tang San.

So both of his martial souls were top-tier martial souls?

And his father was even a Titled Douluo-level powerhouse?

Moreover, his father had long prepared valuable items to help him grow stronger?

Tang San felt his spirits soar.

Luo Fan was indeed strong now, but Tang San possessed a broader future!

Temporary superiority meant nothing. One day, he would surely grow to a point where Luo Fan could not even see his back!

Ten days after Tang San's confidence had shattered and then been rebuilt, Luo Fan successfully mastered tree climbing. He did not even need a running start; he stepped up the trunk as though walking on level ground, directly reaching the treetop. He could even hang upside down from a horizontal branch like a bat!

On the fifteenth day, Luo Fan's Soul Power broke through again, reaching Level 16!

With seven Wood Clones and more than twenty days of effort, Luo Fan also mastered the method of walking on water!

On the water's surface, Luo Fan could walk as though his feet were planted firmly on solid ground!

At this point, Luo Fan's control over his Soul Power had reached an extremely high level.

At the same time, just a few days later, Luo Fan's Soul Power increased again, breaking through to Level 17!

He could now release eight Wood Clones for daily cultivation, making Luo Fan's growth even faster.

Of course, as his Soul Power Level rose, the amount of Soul Power required for each breakthrough also increased.

Thus, the pace of his level increases barely managed to maintain a relatively steady rate.

It was worth mentioning that in recent days, Luo Fan had noticed Tang San cultivating very diligently as well. In just two months, Tang San's Soul Power had risen by one level, reaching Level 14.

Xiao Wu also seemed to have been inspired. As one of Notting Academy's first-year Three Musketeers, her growth rate was not the slightest bit slower than Tang San's!

Another final month passed, and Luo Fan's Soul Power reached Level 18!

This time, he had leveled up even faster than when he reached Level 17.

That was because during this month, Luo Fan had not spent time or effort mastering water-walking and tree-climbing. His cultivation focus had mainly been on increasing his Soul Power!

By the time Luo Fan reached Soul Power Level 18, it was nearly time to leave Notting Academy.

Of course, he was not leaving because he had graduated. Rather, school had gone on break for two months.

The students were gradually returning home!

After thinking it over, Luo Fan decided to remain in Notting City!

After all, there were no relatives left at home. He might as well stay in Notting City and cultivate properly.

Besides, as long as he was not short on money, food, clothing, and daily necessities were always more convenient in the city than in the village!

"At my current pace, once these two months of vacation are over, I should be able to reach Level 20, right?"

"It's also time to prepare in advance for obtaining my second soul ring!"

"After all, a soul beast suitable for my second skill won't be easy to find!"

Luo Fan silently mapped out his future path of growth, then turned his attention to the second skill he needed to unlock.

Naturally, Luo Fan could see what his second skill would be...
