While Huo Yuhao was talking with Tang Chuan, Wang Dong also walked up behind Huo Yuhao and studied Tang Chuan, looking as though she wanted to see right through him.
"Come on, show your teacher around Shrek."
Tang Chuan said with a soft chuckle.
"Yes, Teacher."
Huo Yuhao nodded, feeling the fatigue from his classes vanish like smoke into thin air, and walked off with Tang Chuan.
Wang Dong watched their retreating figures.
After turning it over in her mind, she followed them after all. Mu En simply watched Tang Chuan leave and murmured to himself, "Could it be... that person has truly descended?"
"But what purpose would that person have in descending?"
"What do you think of Shrek's classes?"
Tang Chuan asked.
"Hmm... very professional. Teacher Zhou Yi gave us a running fitness test and taught us theory, and she also took me to meet a teacher from the Soul Tool Department."
Huo Yuhao briefly told Tang Chuan what he had learned that day. In particular, he seemed to show a keen interest in anything involving Soul Tools.
"The Spiritual Detection of your Spirit Eyes Martial Soul can indeed produce impressive results when paired with Soul Tools. You can pursue further studies in both Soul Tools and your Martial Soul."
Tang Chuan nodded thoughtfully.
Huo Yuhao's talent for Soul Tools could indeed be considered exceptionally good. He could hardly make Huo Yuhao abandon that talent.
"Teacher..."
"I was wondering whether Soul Tools could be combined with our Tang Sect's Hidden Weapon throwing techniques, rather than combining Tang Sect Mechanical Hidden Weapons with Soul Tools as we mentioned before."
Huo Yuhao asked hesitantly.
"They're from the Tang Sect..."
Not far behind them, Wang Dong overheard their conversation and was utterly stunned.
Huo Yuhao and Tang Chuan.
Both were from the Tang Sect.
Tang Chuan's surname is actually Tang, too. Just what is his relationship with the Tang Sect? Ah, I really want to know.
Wang Dong felt somewhat frustrated.
And for some reason, she felt a certain resistance toward Soul Tools. She did not know why, either, but right now, she only wanted to know Tang Chuan's true identity.
Tang Chuan seemed to think for a while before answering, "It's good that you can think along those lines."
"If incorporating Soul Guidance Technology into mechanical Hidden Weapons counts as an innovation, then combining throwing-technique Hidden Weapons with Soul Guidance Technology..."
"Would be a truly transcendent breakthrough."
Tang Chuan began speaking at length to Huo Yuhao.
"Take Guanyin's Tears, one of the Tang Sect's Hidden Weapon throwing techniques, for example. Its principle is to use Mysterious Heaven Skill Inner Power to draw out one's own essence blood and water essence, condensing them into the shape of a teardrop with terrifying penetrating power."
"It may seem impossible to incorporate Soul Tools into it, but all it really takes is a different approach. If you used Mysterious Heaven Skill Inner Power to drive your personal vital essence into a Soul Guidance Array, inscribing the two together perfectly, could you unleash an even more terrifying Guanyin's Tears?"
Huo Yuhao listened, enraptured.
This was clearly knowledge he had never encountered before, but at the thought of the Hidden Weapon throwing technique Tang Chuan called Guanyin's Tears...
He could not help feeling a surge of excitement.
"I understand, Teacher."
"I'll study hard and learn more about Soul Tools, then combine them with Tang Sect Hidden Weapons to make the Tang Sect flourish again!"
Huo Yuhao spoke with utmost seriousness, his eyes filled with reverence as he looked at Tang Chuan.
["I am Lord Tang Wang" lie credibility: 11%] [Host received: Tang Sect Hidden Weapons mastery]
At that moment, the system's voice sounded in his mind, and Tang Chuan secretly rejoiced once again. It seemed his words had made Huo Yuhao even more convinced that he was Tang San.
Hidden Weapon mastery?
Perfect. Looks like I can give Yuhao and Xiaoya a demonstration of throwing techniques sometime.
Tang Chuan smiled softly.
At this point, Huo Yuhao stopped and turned back somewhat helplessly toward Wang Dong, who was pretending to admire the scenery nearby after being discovered. "Wang Dong, you've been following us for a long time."
"Who's following you? I just happen to be going the same way."
Wang Dong gave a light snort, her gaze evasive.
"If you want to chat with us, come along. We aren't discussing any secrets."
Tang Chuan said softly, motioning for Wang Dong to follow.
"As if I care! I don't care what you're talking about, either. I, Wang Dong, would sooner jump into Sea God Lake today than chat with you two."
"What? You're saying he's an elder of the Tang Sect?"
Wang Dong stared in astonishment at Tang Chuan beside her, who looked only a few years older than them. This guy could actually be an elder?
"Yes."
Huo Yuhao nodded solemnly.
At least within Shrek Academy, Tang Chuan's public identity was a Tang Sect Elder. That was also what Tang Ya told outsiders. Yet Wang Dong still found it hard to believe. This guy was so young...
And she could not sense his strength. Could he really be hiding it?
"Say, Yuhao, is this teacher of yours reliable? Otherwise, why would he have only found you a Ten-Year Soul Ring for your first soul ring?"
Wang Dong leaned close to Huo Yuhao's ear and whispered.
"..."
Huo Yuhao choked, unable to answer for a moment.
How the hell am I supposed to answer that?
"Uh... I only met Teacher after getting my first soul ring. Yes, that's right. That's how it happened."
Wang Dong could only accept that explanation.
"By the way, Teacher, what are we going to do now?"
Huo Yuhao asked.
"Naturally, I'm taking you to experience using Purple Demon Eye together with Spirit Eyes. And judging by the time, Xiaoya should be back soon."
Only then did Huo Yuhao notice that they were actually heading toward the Tang Sect, and he immediately nodded obediently.
Is he going to teach Yuhao how to cultivate?
Wang Dong suddenly wanted to follow them and take a look, but when she reached the entrance to the Tang Sect Residence, a fair, slender hand suddenly reached out from the side and blocked her.
"Hey, hey, hey!"
"Say, junior, you can't enter the Tang Sect if you aren't a member. Our Tang Sect isn't allowing outsiders to visit these days."
Tang Ya stood with her hands on her hips, looking at Wang Dong with a mischievous grin.
How is this junior so good-looking...
Wang Dong was equally defiant. "I never said I wanted to go in. I just happened to walk over here."
"Oh?"
Tang Ya chuckled.
"Then why don't you consider joining our Tang Sect, junior? As long as you join, you can come inside and have a look. This was once the continent's number one sect. You definitely won't lose out."
Tang Chuan and Huo Yuhao were utterly helpless. Tang Ya really never let a single chance to recruit new members slip by...
"All right, then I'll join."
Wang Dong raised her chin slightly and agreed haughtily.
"Mm-hmm, then you're a new disciple of our Tang Sect now."
Tang Ya's eyes curved with delight, thoroughly satisfied with Wang Dong's answer. Afterward, they followed Tang Chuan into the Tang Sect Courtyard. Tang Chuan suddenly stopped and said to Huo Yuhao.
"Yuhao, have a sparring match with Xiaoya."
