How Should Blue Silver Grass Really Be Cultivated?

"You actually dared to publicly question my Spirit Theory?"

"How could my Spirit Theory possibly be wrong?"

"Blue Silver Grass follows the Control System, with a clearly defined position and cultivation path. Yet you're trying to abandon the mainstream and pursue some Life System instead. Fine, go ahead—but don't try to mislead people here!"

The Master stood behind the desk, furious and panting like an enraged bull, his voice nearly out of control as he roared.

Standing before him were two youths.

One of them was Tang San.

Tang San wore a solemn expression, his brows tightly furrowed.

His gaze shifted back and forth between the Master and the youth beside him.

This youth looked somewhat similar to Tang San between the brows, but his features revealed a sharper edge. He was Tang Chuan—Tang San's biological older brother.

As a Transmigrator who had read the original work thoroughly, Tang Chuan naturally knew that Blue Silver Grass's greatest potential lay in its vitality. Yet this idiotic pig, Yu Xiaogang, was making Tang San develop it toward the Control System and attach completely useless Soul Ring skills to Blue Silver Grass.

Take Blue Silver Grass's First Spirit Skill—Entangle!

The Second Spirit Skill—Parasite!

The Third Spirit Skill—Spider Web Bind!

The Fourth Spirit Skill—Blue Silver Cage!

These Control Soul Skills were completely pointless for the Blue Silver Grass Spirit. They were like taking off one's pants to fart—entirely redundant!

Why did he say that?

As a Plant Spirit, Blue Silver Grass could already entangle, control, and bind things on its own. Attaching Control Soul Skills to it was not simply redundant?

Everyone on the Douluo Continent knew that Blue Silver Grass possessed tremendous vitality.

As the saying went, wildfires could not burn it all away; when spring winds blew, it would grow again.

Rather than cultivating the strongest Life System, one chose to cultivate the Control System instead? Apart from that idiotic pig Yu Xiaogang, there was probably no one else on the entire continent who could have come up with such an idea.

In the original work, because of that idiotic pig Yu Xiaogang's blind guidance, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass Spirit wasted several Soul Ring slots during its early development.

Yu Xiaogang claimed that Blue Silver Grass would have no offensive power if it was not given poison attributes.

As an ancient saying went, grass, wood, bamboo, and stone could all become swords; even plucked flowers and leaves could injure people!

As long as the quality of the Martial Soul and the Soul Power Level increased, it would naturally be capable of possessing immense offensive power. Take Chrysanthemum Douluo's Martial Soul, the Singular Velvet Sky Chrysanthemum, for example—it was also a Plant Spirit!

At this moment, Tang Chuan knew perfectly well that Yu Xiaogang's cultivation method for the Blue Silver Grass Spirit was completely wrong—one could even say it was disastrously wrong.

Therefore, he absolutely could not cultivate according to Yu Xiaogang's theories.

When he became agitated, the Master actually pulled a worn notebook from the bookshelf and said excitedly:

"One of the Ten Core Competitive Theories of the Spirit Master World that I've researched is that Plant Spirits may not necessarily be unable to absorb Animal-Type Spirit Rings!"

Immediately afterward, he raised his head and looked at Tang San, his tone extremely serious:

"Blue Silver Grass possesses a certain degree of toughness, while Snake Spirit Beasts also happen to possess traits such as entanglement and venom. Therefore, the primary objective of Xiao San and me on this trip to the Soul Hunting Forest is a Snake Spirit Beast that has lived for over a hundred years. As long as we successfully hunt it, Xiao San will obtain an excellent Control Soul Skill. It will perfectly match Blue Silver Grass's cultivation path!"

But as soon as he finished speaking, Tang Chuan let out a cold laugh and refuted him without the slightest mercy:

"Master, I agree that Plant Spirits may not necessarily be unable to absorb Animal Spirit Rings. But I'd like to ask—Plant-Type Spirit Beasts also possess toughness and poisonous properties. Why must you choose a snake instead of a Plant-Type Spirit Ring?"

"Since you say Blue Silver Grass is a Plant Spirit, then rather than forcibly applying the logic of Animal Spirit Beasts, why not let it follow the path that truly belongs to plants? Poisonous Vines, Man-eating Flowers, Venomous Thorns... Which one isn't naturally poisonous and extremely tough? Some even possess active offensive abilities no weaker than those of snakes!"

Hearing this, the Master froze. The corner of his mouth twitched, and he clearly could not find a point to refute for the moment. After remaining silent briefly, a trace of anger flashed through his eyes, and he impatiently waved his hand.

"What does a child your age know? The entangling ability of Snake Spirit Beasts has already been proven effective by countless Soul Masters. Based on my many years of experience, if Xiao San absorbs a snake Soul Ring, he will definitely obtain an entangling Soul Skill. It's far more practical than your fanciful ideas."

After hearing the Master's explanation, Tang Chuan said nothing more. He merely raised his right hand slowly, spreading his five fingers as Soul Power faintly rippled in his palm.

As a wisp of pale blue light emerged, a blue-green sprig of grass pushed out from his palm. It was the young yet tenacious Blue Silver Grass.

It carried a supple and lively Life Aura. Like a green snake, it quietly stretched outward, and in the span of a breath, it had already begun silently winding around the Master's arm.

The vine moved along his fingers. It was not fast, yet it behaved like a living creature. Without displaying the slightest trace of aggression, it had unknowingly wound tightly around the Master's sleeve.

"Master," Tang Chuan said calmly. "What do you feel right now?"

The Master instinctively lowered his head and stared at the arm tightly wrapped by Blue Silver Grass. He knitted his brows, his face filled with confusion.

"What are you trying to do?" he asked, his tone carrying a hint of wariness and bewilderment.

Tang Chuan remained expressionless. "Do you see any sign that I'm using a Soul Skill?"

"Hm?" The Master was slightly taken aback. Only then did he react, his pupils shrinking slightly. "You mean..."

"Yes." Tang Chuan cut him off directly, his tone filled with undisguised mockery. "Blue Silver Grass can entangle things on its own. It's an instinct, not an ability activated through a Soul Skill. Without using any Soul Skill, it can complete basic binding and entanglement."

"Then may I ask, Master, if you insist on giving it another entangling Soul Skill, isn't that just taking off your pants to fart—completely redundant?"

"That's why I said Blue Silver Grass should absorb Plant-Type Spirit Rings and follow the Life System!"

As his voice fell, the office descended into absolute silence.

The Master's expression became terribly ugly. The muscles at the corners of his eyes twitched faintly, and his temples began to throb. For a moment, he could not say a word. He was both humiliated and enraged, yet unable to refute him.

A moment later, the Master's face flushed red. Panting like an enraged bull, he completely lost control of his emotions.

His Spirit Theory had been overturned on the spot by a child only a few years old. His old face had nowhere to hide. If he did not forcefully suppress this matter, how could he teach Tang San in the future?

"You—you're simply arrogant beyond belief! Spouting utter nonsense!"

The Master slammed his palm onto the table and pointed at Tang Chuan as he roared, "You're nothing but a brat of a few years! A Little Soul Scholar who doesn't even possess a Soul Ring! What gives you the right to question the Spirit Theory I spent decades researching? What do you know about Martial Souls? What do you know about control?!"

"You're a brat whose Martial Soul is Blue Silver Grass and whose Innate Soul Power is only Rank One! Do you think that reading a few books and having a sharp tongue gives you the right to deny the experience of the entire Spirit Master World?!"

Tang San's Innate Full Soul Power had been cultivated through the Mysterious Heaven Skill.

Tang Chuan's Blue Silver Grass Spirit was somewhat similar to the Master's Martial Soul, Luo Sanpao. It was an incomplete version of a Top-tier Martial Soul, and its development was not complete.

Only after awakening under specific conditions could it display its true power.

Therefore, his Innate Soul Power was only Rank One!
