Chapter 112: Tang San Heads to Nuoding City
Halfway up the mountain at the Pope's Hall.
Qian Xunji stood with Ah Yin and Qian Renchuan.
Ah Yin fully intended to personally oversee Qian Renchuan's martial soul cultivation. As a hundred-thousand-year Blue Silver Empress, no one in the world understood the Blue Silver martial soul better than her—she could fully unlock its potential.
"Xiao Chuan, I saw how you killed rabbits using a single leaf. Is that right?"
"Yes, Father."
Qian Renchuan felt a bit guilty. He was using the Tang Sect's hidden weapon technique. What if his father asked where he'd learned it? He didn't want to lie to his parents.
Tang Sect's techniques were top secrets. If he gave them to his parents, he'd be betraying the rules. But refusing them, or lying, would also be a betrayal.
Thankfully, Qian Xunji didn't press the issue. Instead, he said, "Ah Yin, use your Blue Silver Domain to catch all the rabbits in this forest."
Though unsure of his intent, Ah Yin complied. Her domain activated, and golden-blue Blue Silver Grass burst from the ground. The vines explored the entire forest.
Rabbits were quickly captured one after another—more than a hundred.
Soft Bone Rabbits, Lightning Rabbits… many had already reached the ten-year soul beast stage. Clearly, they were thriving in this forest.
And this was even after Qian Renchuan regularly thinned their numbers. If he hadn't, who knew how many there would be?
Qian Xunji casually crushed a large boulder into chunks and spread them on the ground in front of Qian Renchuan.
"Xiao Chuan, how many of these rabbits can you kill in ten seconds? Father needs to confirm your martial soul cultivation direction."
Qian Renchuan didn't hesitate. One's cultivation path was vital. A wrong path could limit one's future strength.
He crouched and put the stones into his soul tool. Without opening his eyes, he relied on sound. The vines of Blue Silver Grass were too dazzling—his current level of Purple Demon Eye, still at Micro stage, acted like a magnifying glass. Using it now would only blind him.
He listened to each rabbit's movement. His fingers blurred as he infused each stone with Xuan Tian Gong inner force and launched them.
In just five seconds, over 90% of the rabbits were dead—each stone hitting the weak spot at the mouth with perfect accuracy. Only a few tougher, higher-ranked rabbits survived.
Ah Yin covered her mouth in shock. She knew her son was accurate with stones and leaves—but this? Blindfolded? A 100% hit rate and 90% kill rate? Was he even human?
Qian Xunji nodded slightly. "Good. Ah Yin, Xiao Chuan's cultivation path can't be exactly the same as yours. His talent must be utilized."
"Your Blue Silver Empress martial soul focuses on healing and control. Even without a full focus on control, it's still one of the strongest in its class."
"Xiao Chuan will also train in healing and control—but his control won't come from soul rings, it will come from pure mastery of his martial soul."
Like Tang San in the original story, who used Blue Silver Bind not from a soul ring, but from mastery. Soul rings just made it faster and more effective.
"Xiao Chuan's main path will be martial soul metallization. He'll use his martial soul like the stones he just threw."
Ah Yin thought it through. She would focus on healing and control. Qian Renchuan would focus on metallization and healing.
Her first soul ring was control, second was healing. His first would be healing, second for metal-type soul rings, and so on.
With a martial soul as powerful as the Blue Silver Empress, even slightly off the intended path, he could still reach Title Douluo. And he had Xuan Tian Gong, twin martial souls, and Spirit Hall's resources—no problem.
Qian Xunji ruffled his hair. "From level 10 to 20, focus entirely on control mastery. You must use Blue Silver Grass like your own limbs. Once that's done, I'll take over."
"Let's get you your first soul ring. With whale glue, it'll be at least a thousand-year ring. No one will stop you."
Qian Renchuan looked up at his father's confident smile, feeling excited. He suspected his father had something like Qian Renxue's hell training in store for him.
Some time later.
Clear Sky Sect. The annual martial soul awakening began. The presiding elder was a Soul Saint from the outer sect.
Children in sect uniforms queued up. Among them stood a blue-haired boy with a bruised face—Tang San.
After Tang Yuehua stopped giving the elders even a single coin, the power balance between the elder and main factions collapsed. The two sides now hated each other.
Tang San's bullying worsened tenfold. What came before—bruises and beatings—was nothing compared to the mental torment he now suffered.
He'd been paraded naked through the woods. Threatened in latrines. Watched by hundreds. Humiliated.
It was so psychologically scarring that he became afraid to even leave his room to train or eat.
Tang Xiao pitied him, but was powerless. Meals were now brought to Tang San's room—no one dared step foot there. After all, Tang Hao still slept inside.
"Tang San!"
Finally, it was his turn. Elders' disciples sneered. A bastard born from lust—what good would his martial soul be?
Bathed in golden light, his blue hair deepened in shade, and his plain face grew more striking. He raised his hand, and a blue glowing grass emerged.
Ah Yin would've recognized it instantly—Blue Silver King. But far weaker than Qian Renchuan's. Just 20–30k years compared to near 100k.
Tang San clutched his palm tight. He could feel it—Blue Silver Grass, and in his other hand, what he hadn't shown—Clear Sky Hammer. His martial souls had finally awakened!
But he didn't reveal the hammer. Showing dual martial souls now would trap him. He had to escape—get to Nuoding City. Find his beloved Xiao Wu. Find his theory master, Yu Xiaogang.
Blue Silver Bind, Parasite, Spider Web Restraint, Blue Silver Prison—his flawless soul skills for the tournament. He needed to get away.
Clear Sky Sect was hell.
"Tang San. Martial Soul—Blue Silver Grass. Innate Full Soul Power."
