[Lu Chen: Tang San's situation is indeed rather unusual.
First, because his birth mother was the Blue Silver Emperor, even setting aside whether any of the Tang family's ancestors married Soul Beasts, my preliminary judgment is that Tang San is half-human and half-Soul Beast, with a latent Blue Silver Emperor bloodline.
That is also why he could only awaken ordinary Blue Silver Grass, yet that Blue Silver Grass could stubbornly persist as a Martial Soul. He basically exploited a bug.
Even Tang Hao was dumbfounded when he first saw it.]
[Lu Chen: Second, because I'm relatively sensitive to Bloodline Origins, I can be almost certain that Tang San's Blue Silver Grass must have dragged down his Innate Soul Power. So why was Tang San tested as having Innate Full Soul Power?
The answer lies in the cultivation method he practiced from childhood, the "Mysterious Heaven Skill" he stole from the Tang Sect in his previous life.
Gangzi simply had such unstoppable luck that he guessed one thing right-and screwed Tang San over big-time in the process.]
[Lu Chen: As for why I said that neither "the prerequisite for Twin Martial Souls to appear must be that the two Martial Souls are close in quality" nor "the amount of Innate Soul Power is directly proportional to the quality of the Martial Soul" is accurate...
The former is because Twin Martial Souls also include the exceptional case of Companion Martial Souls. As the name suggests, one Martial Soul exists entirely as a subordinate supplement to the other, so naturally, their quality cannot be close.
As for the latter, isn't Gangzi himself a counterexample?]
In the Chat Group, Liu Erlong, who had already lain down and accepted the mockery, no longer intending to stubbornly defend his theories, instantly perked up.
Even Bibi Dong, who had been cultivating while silently fuming and keeping a distracted eye on the group chat, focused her attention.
[Liu Erlong: What does he mean by that?]
[Back to That Day: Could it be that Grandmaster isn't actually useless?]
[Little Princess: You two really do care so much about this piece of trash, you bootlickers~]
[Liu Erlong: You!]
Unlike Liu Erlong's impotent fury, Bibi Dong forcibly suppressed the classless urge to start hurling abuse in the group and inwardly vowed, Ning Rongrong, just you wait!
Tomorrow, I'll have someone investigate your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's human trafficking records. I don't believe you're as clean as you look!
[Lu Chen: Of course Grandmaster is genuinely useless~
There are no useless Martial Souls, only useless Grandmasters.
Compared with Ji Juechen, that astonishingly brilliant sword fanatic ten thousand years from now who merged his soul into his sword, Grandmaster, a useless man born with a golden spoon in his mouth, single-handedly dragged down his own super Martial Soul.
Aside from Luo Sanpao, whose Martial Soul actually comes with intelligence of its own? That alone makes calling it god-tier no exaggeration!
Perhaps Liu Erlong and Flender have never considered that the Golden Sacred Dragon isn't merely their three-person Martial Soul Fusion Skill?]
[Liu Erlong: ???]
[Yanzi: What does Lu Chen mean?]
[Little Fox: Intelligence of its own? Martial Souls like that exist?]
[Little Princess: So imposing. It looks even stronger than Bone... Bone Douluo's Bone Dragon Martial Soul.]
[Angel: The Golden Giant Dragon possesses both a Divine Attribute and multiple elemental attributes, with an immensely powerful physical body. A legendary dragon Soul Beast, it is said to hold an extremely high position among dragons and possess the potential to become a Divine Beast.]
[Back to That Day: So Grandmaster's Martial Soul actually isn't... but a Golden Sacred Dragon?]
[Netherworld: Then here's the question: just how useless does he have to be to turn a Golden Sacred Dragon into a Swine?]
[Spirit Cat: And even the way it releases Soul Skills is so...]
In Zhu Zhuqing's dormitory, the Zhu sisters recalled the information they had found on Yu Xiaogang that day and exchanged a glance, each seeing the strange expression on the other's face.
[Lu Chen: As the son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan Leader, Gangzi enjoyed the finest education from childhood, never wanted for food or clothing, and ate heavenly treasures until he was stuffed.
Logically speaking, with his physical constitution, he should at least have been able to complete the first stage of evolution and become the Golden Sacred Dragon's preliminary form-the Radiant Sacred Dragon...
Instead, his frail body couldn't even manage the first stage of evolution, and even caused his Martial Soul to degenerate into a Swine that could never break past rank thirty and had a ludicrous way of attacking.
From that, it seems he probably never did any physical conditioning before the age of six, never mind practicing the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's hereditary combat arts~
In this world, he truly is the person most qualified to say, "There are no useless Martial Souls, only useless Soul Masters."
Because he put it into practice himself~]
In the Chat Group, aside from Liu Erlong, Bibi Dong, and Hu Liena, who dared not act too freely in the group, all the other members were already laughing themselves silly.
Lu Chen could even faintly hear a girl's suppressed laughter coming from the room next door.
Looking back into the System Space, he found the Blue Silver Grass already swaying so hard it was twitching...
Infected by that cheerful atmosphere, Lu Chen couldn't help smiling too, then prepared to drop a bombshell.
[Lu Chen: But even so, Gangzi can still be saved~
If Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong knew, they'd probably be willing to kneel and beg me, wouldn't they?
Still, I keep feeling those two crazy women would be more likely to lock me up and refuse to feed me unless I talked...]
[Yanzi: @Liu Erlong, time to act?]
[Little Princess: @Liu Erlong, time to act?]
[...]
After a wave of messages flooded the screen, Liu Erlong still hadn't replied.
[Xiao Wu: Where is she?]
[Angel: Is there a possibility, and I'm only saying a possibility...]
[Netherworld: She wasn't actually preparing to do that just now, was she?]
[Spirit Cat: Hard to say.]
At the same time, a message from the Chat Group was pinned-
[Group member Liu Erlong is receiving her second punishment. Its severity is ten times that of the first. Also, one additional point.] [There will be no third chance!]
The final words were blood-red, and merely looking at them sent a chill through everyone.
[Little Princess: Sisters, mystery solved...]
After learning what had happened to Liu Erlong from System Sis, Lu Chen shook his head. He wasn't particularly displeased with Liu Erlong; after all, that was simply her personality.
And Lu Chen believed that after she saw the spoilers he was about to reveal, she would never trigger the Chat Group's punishment a third time.
Compared with Liu Erlong getting shocked a second time, what surprised him most was that Bibi Dong had managed to hold herself back.
In terms of sheer madness, Liu Erlong was a little sister beside her. After all, besides having a more extreme personality, Bibi Dong was also affected by the Rakshasa Divine Sense. She was genuinely mentally ill enough to get a Medical Certificate from a hospital.
To answer his question, System Sis popped up.
[The Chat Group's standing is far above that of the Rakshasa God. The Rakshasa Divine Sense's influence on Bibi Dong is gradually weakening (〃＾∇＾).] [Right now, she is merely a relatively obsessive person.]
So this was a Bibi Dong who could think and weigh gains against losses. No wonder...
And Bibi Dong was indeed weighing gains against losses. When she first learned that Yu Xiaogang still had hope of breaking through, she truly had considered locking Lu Chen in a dark room, but she had killed that thought herself before it was even fully formed.
There was no other reason: she simply couldn't get around the Chat Group.
Just as she was planning whether she could sway Lu Chen through an indirect approach or an exchange of benefits, his next update left her frozen on the spot, unable to think about anything else-
[Lu Chen: If Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong knew that, just like Ah Yin and Xiao Wu, they had been living in a deception meticulously woven by Yu Xiaogang all along, and had been deceived even worse than Ah Yin and Xiao Wu, I wonder how they would feel?]
[Ah Yin: This is exactly what I wanted to see ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ!]
[Xiao Wu: Here it comes, the inescapable public humiliation segment.]
[Yanzi: Thinking about our group titles now, I'm afraid none of us will escape it in the future.]
[Little Princess: Whatever, let's enjoy this first!]
[...]
[Liu Erlong: What meticulously woven deception? What exactly is Lu Chen... talking about?]
