Background / History

Previous Life and Holy Soul Village

Tang San retains memories and martial techniques from a previous life in the Tang Sect. Li Fei regards those teachings and Tang San’s limited experience outside the sect as influences on his established worldview, although this judgment is Li Fei’s assessment rather than Tang San’s own account 93.

At four years old, Tang San lives with Tang Hao in three dilapidated mud-brick houses in Holy Soul Village. He is already practicing internal martial arts and moves unusually quickly despite his thin physique. Li Fei visits hoping to observe the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record techniques, but Tang San refrains from cultivating in front of him 93.

Li Fei instead demonstrates Martial Soul Possession and five black Spirit Rings, then explains the Soul Master hierarchy. Tang San’s determination to become a Soul Master grows after witnessing the demonstration 93.

Notting Academy and Doubts About His Teacher

Tang San enrolls at Notting Junior Soul Master Academy and becomes Yu Xiaogang’s disciple after his Twin Martial Souls are discovered. Tang Hao and Yu Xiaogang instruct him not to add Spirit Rings to the Clear Sky Hammer, preserving it for higher-age rings later 101.

Li Fei’s earlier demonstration creates a contradiction in Tang San’s education. Yu Xiaogang insists that an all-black ring configuration must belong to a second Martial Soul, but Tang San remembers Li Fei saying that he possesses only one. News of the Body Sect further weakens Tang San’s confidence in his teacher’s authority 101 104.

After obtaining his Mandala Snake ring, Tang San questions whether an animal-type Soul Beast was truly suitable for Blue Silver Grass. When Yu Xiaogang remains preoccupied with researching Second Awakening, Tang San borrows his books and resolves to investigate future ring choices himself 107.

Shrek Academy and Defeat by the Royal Fighting Team

Tang San and Xiao Wu enter Shrek Academy on Yu Xiaogang’s recommendation. Tang San acts as the team’s battlefield controller, restraining opponents and coordinating his teammates through Blue Silver Grass 117 120.

Against the Royal Fighting Team, Oscar’s relentless close-range attacks prevent Tang San from supporting the others. Tang San reveals his Eight Spider Lances, rescues Xiao Wu with Parasite, and eventually uses flying knives against the surrounding opponents. He is the last Shrek member defeated, knocked out of the arena by Oscar and Yu Tianheng’s combined pressure 121.

The defeat exposes him to the Body Sect’s cultivation philosophy: choose rings that repair Martial Soul weaknesses and support cultivation, rather than pursuing combat Soul Skills alone. Tang San immediately demonstrates that he can reproduce Binding through direct control of Blue Silver Grass and considers combining this approach with Tang Sect Secret Arts 121 122.

Family Revelations and Clear Sky Hammer Training

While studying at Heaven Dou Royal Academy, Tang San is summoned to witness Tang Hao’s confrontation with Qian Renxue. He discovers that his seemingly ordinary blacksmith father is a Titled Douluo and meets his aunt, Tang Yuehua 124 125.

After Tang Hao’s defeat, Tang San treats his injuries with the Mysterious Heaven Skill. Tang Yuehua explains the Clear Sky Sect’s seclusion, Tang Hao’s expulsion, and Ah Yin’s disappearance after the battle surrounding his birth 125.

Tang Hao later recounts the full incident and agrees to ally with the Heaven Dou Empire, ending the feud with the Qian family. Tang San reacts with hatred toward Spirit Hall, prompting Li Fei to strike and sharply reprimand him 126.

Tang Hao begins personally teaching him the Clear Sky Hammer. Tang San initially struggles because his Blue Silver Grass training favors economical Soul Power use and intricate techniques, whereas Tang Hao’s revised hammer method emphasizes overwhelming force. By the time Yu Xiaogang seeks him out again, his hammer strikes have developed a stronger sense of power 126 145.

Thunder God Inheritance

Following the destruction of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Yu Xiaogang asks Tang San to avenge it. Tang San refuses to promise a battle beyond his strength and suggests seeking help from Li Fei or the emperor instead. Yu Xiaogang then reveals the Thunder God inheritance site and its connection to Thunderclap Hell Vines 145 146.

Tang San questions why previous candidates failed and whether his teacher’s information is reliable. After learning the requirements, he travels to Thunder God Island with Yu Xiaogang and Tang Hao. Tang Hao disperses the lightning surrounding a 40,000-year Thunderclap Hell Vine, allowing Tang San to kill it and begin absorbing its ring 146.

Bibi Dong attacks while he is occupied with absorption. Yu Xiaogang intercepts a lethal beam and dies protecting him; Qian Renxue destroys the weakened remainder of the attack. The severely injured Tang Hao continues shielding Tang San with the Asura Demon Sword until Li Fei arrives 147.

Abyssal War and Death

At rank 98, Tang San fights beside Xiao Wu against the renewed Abyssal invasion. Recognizing that even god-level strength had previously been insufficient to eliminate the Abyss Plane, he resolves to complete the Thunder God inheritance. He uses Devouring Golden Threads to extract Abyssal Creature energy for his own cultivation and distribute it to his companions 152 153.

After reaching rank 99, Tang San takes Xiao Wu to Thunder God Island while Tang Hao remains behind at the devastated Clear Sky Sect. The Wind God arrives seeking the Thunder God’s lightning authority. The surviving Thunder God consciousness warns Tang San and burns itself away to buy him time to complete the inheritance 156.

Tang San becomes a god but cannot escape the Wind God. His Guanyin Tear destroys the Wind God’s God Heart and dissipates part of his divine soul, yet consumes all of Tang San’s divine and spiritual power. With no restorative sausages or Immortal Herbs available, he is defenseless against the counterattack 156 157.

The Wind God pierces Tang San’s head, annihilates his soul, and removes his godhead. Xiao Wu carries his body back to Tang Hao, whose ensuing revenge culminates in the Wind God’s death. Tang Hao later asks Li Fei whether his son can still be saved; no revival is documented in the supplied context 157 159.

Appearance

Tang San is extremely thin at four years old and wears heavily patched clothing 93.

• Early Blue Silver Grass: Develops dark-red patterns after absorbing the Mandala Snake ring 107.
• Eight Spider Lances: Eight poisonous spider legs extend from his back when the External Soul Bone is deployed 121.
• Divine form: Six Soul Bones form armor, and the Eight Spider Lances transform into eight blue-purple wings during his inheritance ceremony 156.

Personality

Tang San is cautious about revealing his techniques and attentive when learning unfamiliar information. As a child, he listens to Li Fei’s explanation rather than practicing in front of him. Later, he investigates contradictions in Yu Xiaogang’s theories and asks pointed questions about the risks of the Thunder God inheritance 93 101 107 146.

He is determined in battle and protective of Xiao Wu. Even after his teammates fall, he refuses to concede until the Royal Fighting Team defeats him. When Xiao Wu is endangered, he immediately uses Parasite to restrain Oscar and pull her to safety 121.

His judgment becomes more independent, but family grievances can still provoke intense anger. He reacts with hatred after learning Ah Yin’s history, yet later remains realistic when Yu Xiaogang demands revenge against Bibi Dong. Following his teacher’s death, he increasingly views strength as essential to protecting those he cares about 126 145 153.

Abilities & Skills

Twin Martial Souls

• Blue Silver Grass / Blue Silver Emperor: Provides restraints, battlefield control, venom, and spear attacks. Its Second Awakening grants the Blue Silver Domain 107 121 145 146.
• Clear Sky Hammer: A power-oriented Martial Soul trained under Tang Hao. Tang San initially finds its force-based methods difficult to reconcile with his precision-focused habits 126.

Second Soul Skill: Parasite	Sprouts previously planted seeds around a target. Used to immobilize Oscar long enough to rescue Xiao Wu 121.

• Damage: Destroys the Wind God’s God Heart and disperses part of his divine soul 157.
