Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 192 Success Stories
Back at Shrek Academy.

Upon hearing what had happened to Tang San, Yu Xiaogang rushed over and gently patted his shoulder.

"Tang San."

The Grand Soul Master, with the Spirit Hall's honorary medal hanging around his neck and a copy of "The Ten Core Competencies of Spirits" in his hands, gazed proudly into the distance:

"Although, in the not-so-distant past, due to a lack of understanding of bloodline theory, you took a detour!"

"I apologize to you!"

Tang San nodded slightly.

I suddenly realized that the master is actually quite humble.
His tone was exceptionally vivid as he spoke from the bottom of his heart to Tang San: "Tang San, are you willing to trust your master one more time?"

"I will use all my life's knowledge to guide your martial spirit to become the strongest in the world!"

The master's tone was exceptionally moving.
Perhaps it was his soft heart, perhaps it was his lack of maternal love, or perhaps it was the concept of "a teacher for a day is a father for life" that made Tang San unable to refuse such a middle-aged man.

"I believe you!" Tang San said.

Yu Xiaogang's face broke into a satisfied smile, as radiant as a chrysanthemum.

His expression relaxed, he thanked Tang San, and then fell into deep thought.

After a long pause, the master said seriously, "Tang San, do you know that Shrek Academy's biggest problem is that it is too arrogant!"

"Ignoring the achievements of others and neglecting their strengths, arrogance will destroy everything!"

His gaze seemed to traverse mountains and rivers, pointing a finger northward: "Han Tao of Qibao Academy has already demonstrated the power of Blue Silver Grass."

After going through this ordeal, Tang San and Yu Xiaogang seem to have abandoned their arrogance and are now taking the character of Han Tao seriously.

"This is something we should learn from!"

Tang San hesitated for a moment: "Learn from Han Tao?"

"His Blue Silver Grass doesn't seem to have any strength, is there any need to learn it?"

"Of course it's necessary!"

Yu Xiaogang's expression revealed arrogance.

"Han Tao has already pointed out the correct evolution case for us. Now you have three free spirit rings, so you can choose according to his model!"

The master thought to himself, "Especially the first spirit ring!"

In Yu Xiaogang's eyes, learning from Han Tao was not important at all; what was important was treating the bone in his arm!
The master spoke vividly, describing his own sense of presence:
"Han Tao may not understand any theory, and due to a lack of resources in the early stages, he chose an inappropriate timeframe."

Therefore, we should analyze its essence and seek the true answer!

Tang San was taken aback: "Analyze the essence?"

It's a bit incomprehensible yet impressive.

Yu Xiaogang's expression turned arrogant, and he began to state his views:
"For example, Han Tao's first spirit ring was a fluorescent grass, which belongs to the healing type!"

"Therefore, we also chose the healing type, and on the Douluo Continent, the strongest healer is the Nine-Hearted Begonia!"

The pain of having blood drawn kept replaying in Yu Xiaogang's mind.

On the Douluo Continent, no other healing Soul Master can repair their own shattered bones.
Left with no other choice, he sought help from Qibao Academy, where Ye Lingling drew a lot of his blood.

Cruel!

The master revealed his purpose: "Therefore, your first spirit ring will also be a healing type!"

"And you must choose a thousand-year-old crabapple blossom, which has a stronger healing effect than the fluorescent grass!"

"We are no less capable than Han Tao!"

Tang San nodded repeatedly, expressing his deep approval.

Yu Xiaogang added, "Han Tao's second spirit ring is the ten-year-old Guzhu."

It dismissed this with disdain:
"Ten years, how laughable!"

"Perhaps it's because he didn't handle interpersonal relationships well at the Notting City Junior Soul Master Academy, and no one was willing to guide him in hunting for soul rings!" Grandmaster chuckled softly.

Generally speaking, the older the spirit beast, the stronger it is, and the better the effect of its spirit rings. This is a consensus in the Douluo Continent.

Based on the consensus, Yu Xiaogang made his "correct" statement:
"We'll take the soul ring from the thousand-year-old Lone Bamboo. If there's no thousand-year-old Lone Bamboo on Douluo Continent, we'll take the hundred-year-old Lone Bamboo!"

"I absolutely must be better than him!"

Yu Xiaogang's confidence could not conceal the brilliance in his heart. His confident tone made it seem as if he could crush all the difficulties in front of him in the palm of his hand.

"Great!" Oscar cheered.

"Yes, we cannot lag behind others!"

Ma Hongjun exclaimed in shock.

Tang San's eyes gleamed with surprise. He never expected that his own setback would awaken his master's powers.

With professional theory and a rigorous attitude, one can surely secure a bright future for their Blue Silver Grass.

"As for the third spirit ring..."

Yu Xiaogang was unaware of the concept of Origin Soul Rings. In his eyes, it was utterly absurd that the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul would choose a Blue Silver Grass Soul Ring and gain a useless perception-type Soul Skill!

It glanced at Tang San, seeking its disciple's opinion:

"Han Tao's third spirit ring is a thousand-year-old Blue Silver Grass spirit beast."

"The Soul Skill is: Blue Silver Eye!"

Clearly, Yu Xiaogang had done his research.

He possessed profound knowledge and unparalleled self-confidence, and spoke calmly and serenely.

Perhaps sensing Yu Xiaogang's dilemma, Tang San resolutely refused:
"A perception-based soul skill? I have the Tang Sect's ultimate technique, the Purple Demon Eye. I don't need this at all!"

The master added, "Yes."

"Plant-based martial souls can absorb animal-type soul rings, so I think the third soul ring should be an animal-type one, instead of always hesitatingly choosing a plant!"

"Han Tao's fourth spirit ring is the Jade Phosphorous Flower. We can choose the Jade Phosphorous Serpent, which is also a poisonous plant, to enhance the toxicity and toughness of the Blue Silver Grass!"

The master was exceptionally confident when the Jade Phosphorous Serpent was mentioned.

Yu Xiaogang once guided Dugu Yan and proposed the concept of "mixed toxins" (plagiarized from Yang Wushuang), possessing very detailed trading experience.

just
Dugu Yan is ungrateful; she actually drew her own blood to save Yu Tianheng. She truly deserves to die!

Yu Xiaogang had never seen such a heartless and treacherous person!
"Tang San is still the best."

Looking at Tang San, he was suddenly filled with relief and felt grateful for his good fortune.

"Azure Phosphorus Serpent"

"toxin."

Upon hearing about the poison, Tang San hesitated considerably.

Last time, the Blue Silver Grass was ruined by the toxins.
If it happened again, he wouldn't have the chance to rebuild his spirit rings. Thinking of this, he looked doubtful and somewhat afraid.

"I think it's best to avoid using toxins!"

Tang San rarely expressed his own opinion.

However, upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang felt his authority had been violated and immediately retorted, "What's there to be afraid of?"

"That's how Han Tao chose his fourth spirit ring; there are already successful examples of spirit evolution before us!"

"Besides, you must trust me, trust my theory [mixed toxins]."

Tang San hesitated for a long time
Despite the master's insistence and his moving persuasion, I chose to believe.

Then, the master instructed: "Perfect timing, Liu Erlong is free now, let her take you to hunt for a soul ring!"
