Douluo: Star-Breaking Sword God

Chapter 225 Yu Xiaogang's Reckless Act, Tang San Devours the Life of a Soul Beast

Flander's eyes widened, his face full of disbelief. "Xiao Gang, are you telling the truth?"
"Based solely on my recounting of your battle and my description of the scene when your opponent unleashed the fusion technique, have you already deduced the key to their seven-in-one fusion technique?"

"Of course."

Yu Xiaogang puffed out his chest smugly, "The key to the Seven-in-One Fusion Technique lies in the synchronization of the soul power resonance frequency. Those trash from Canghui Academy are just forcibly piecing together something based on the commonalities of gemstone martial souls."

The essence of the true seven-in-one fusion technique lies in enabling different martial souls to resonate, allowing soul power to be transmitted and transformed between them.

Yu Xiaogang's voice was hoarse and unpleasant, yet it carried an undisguised smugness.

A hint of doubt flashed in Flander's eyes, but it was quickly replaced by anticipation. "Xiao Gang, do you mean that our Shrek Academy also has the ability to perform this type of fusion technique?"

"Of course!" Yu Xiaogang slammed his hand on the table, his fat body trembling with excitement. "I have already designed a plan. The performance of Xiao San's Blue Silver Grass during this period has already shown that his martial soul has extremely strong plasticity."

He possesses eight spider spears and the physique of twin martial souls. Using Blue Silver Grass as a medium, he can transmit everyone's soul power to Xiao San, which will surely allow him to unleash unparalleled power.

Even at the Soul Saint level.

In this Soul Master Competition, where the age limit is 25, a Soul Saint has never appeared before. This generation of the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation will at most produce Soul Kings. If they succeed in their cultivation, it's safe to say they'll secure a place in the top three of Shrek Academy.

As the converging source of all soul power, Tang San and his disciples can use it to unleash even more powerful soul skills, helping him to achieve glory.

Flander was very excited, but then a trace of worry appeared in his eyes, "Xiao Gang, this kind of fusion skill puts a huge strain on the body of a Soul Master. Can Xiao San and the others withstand it?"

Yu Xiaogang scoffed disdainfully, "Flander, when did you become so timid? Xiao San is a twin martial soul possessor, and he also has the Eight Spider Lances to strengthen his physique. What is mere soul power transmission?"

"But."

"No buts!" Yu Xiaogang suddenly stood up excitedly, his obese body knocking over the candlestick on the table, the flame flickering on his ferocious face. "This is my last chance, do you understand, Flander!"
My eyes are blind, my spirit is ruined, and that woman Bibi Dong has already removed me from the Spirit Hall. Before she can completely expose my actions to the outside world, I must have Xiao San lead Shrek Academy to the front lines of the continent's powers.

Let him rely on the Clear Sky Hammer to shine in the Soul Master Competition, so that I, as his teacher, will have the opportunity to stand at the pinnacle of the Soul Master world again!
I want the whole continent to know who the true theoretical master is! I cannot die like this!

Flander was startled by his crazed appearance and instinctively took a step back.

Yu Xiaogang suddenly lowered his voice and said with a strange smile, "Besides, I've already had Xiao San test it."

"What?" Flander's eyes widened in shock.

“Just two days ago, I had Xiao San try to absorb a portion of Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai’s soul power,” Yu Xiaogang said proudly, stroking his chin. “The effect was surprisingly good. Apart from some swelling, Xiao San didn’t experience any side effects.”

The Blue Silver Grass's strength has also increased significantly.

Flander's expression changed drastically. "You actually kept this dangerous experiment a secret from me? What if..."

"There's no chance of anything going wrong!" Yu Xiaogang waved his hands excitedly. "My theories never go wrong! Just give me another week, and I can get all seven Shrek Seven Devils to master this technique!"
They were divided into groups of three, then groups of four, until all seven were fully integrated.

Flander frowned. "Although there doesn't seem to be a major problem at the moment, as the number of people increases, the complexity and burden of soul power transmission will increase exponentially. Have you considered the risks involved?"

A hint of impatience flashed in Yu Xiaogang's eyes, but he quickly regained his confident demeanor. "Flander, you're just too cautious."

Having studied Soul Master theory for so many years, how could I not have anticipated this risk? Xiao San and the others are all geniuses, possessing potential and resilience beyond that of ordinary people.

"And as I said, we'll take it step by step." Flander sighed. "Alright."

Meanwhile, under the ancient tree in Shrek Academy's backyard, Tang San was deeply embedding the Eight Spider Spears and Blue Silver Grass into the tree trunk.

The dark red vines were constantly wriggling, and the bark was drying and cracking at a speed visible to the naked eye.

He closed his eyes, savoring the pleasure of devouring Shi Nian, and his Adam's apple bobbed involuntarily.
"The teacher gave me a good excuse. How could Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai have imagined that I was extracting the soul power they had cultivated?"

I never expected that this good-for-nothing could actually develop the Seven-in-One Fusion Technique that the Canghui Academy group had.

Although something seems a little off, it can definitely help us.

Tang San had no idea that Yu Xiaogang simply wanted to achieve the so-called soul power sharing through his martial soul ability.

In the original work, the key to the activation of the Shrek Seven-in-One Fusion Technique was Ning Rongrong, the young master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. It was explicitly mentioned that Ning Rongrong used part of the Fusion Ring technique, which consumed a huge amount of soul power, to fuse the soul power of the seven people into one, thus enabling the successful execution.

It can be said that without Shi Nian's ideas and Ning Rongrong's existence, Yu Xiaogang in the original work would not have been able to achieve this fusion technique at all.

Now, Tang San's ability to absorb energy has been amplified and strengthened, becoming another new path for Yu Xiaogang. However, relying on Tang San to actively draw in all soul power is much more dangerous than having Ning Rongrong initiate it. If not careful, he might explode.
But Yu Xiaogang doesn't care about any of that now. Bibi Dong has already learned of his existence and has directly caused him great pain. She might attack him again someday. Tang San should prioritize his own interests.
Even if something goes wrong, Haotian Douluo will be there to cover for him, so he's not afraid.

"Third Brother, you're here?!" Suddenly, a gentle voice interrupted his thoughts.

"Xiao Wu, what brings you here?" Tang San quickly composed himself, retracted the Eight Spider Lances and Blue Silver Grass into his body, and went to greet her.

"I'm a little worried." Xiao Wu pursed her lips and leaned against him. "I'm a little afraid that those Title Douluos will attack me."

"Don't worry, Xiao Wu, with my father protecting us in the shadows, they are no match for us. He will definitely be able to protect you and me."

"Hmm," Xiao Wu said after a moment of silence, "After the Soul Master Competition, I might go back to the Star Dou Great Forest. Will you blame me?"

Tang San stiffened, and forced a reply, "No."

"Thank you for your understanding, Third Brother. If only humans and spirit beasts didn't have to hunt each other," Xiao Wu sighed, looking up at Tang San. "Promise me, Third Brother, from now on, you will only hunt evil spirit beasts, okay?"

"I answer."

"Swear it." Xiao Wu covered Tang San's mouth, staring intently at him.

Tang San paused for a moment, then solemnly said, "I swear, Xiao Wu, from now on I will only hunt evil soul beasts and will never kill innocent people indiscriminately."

"Hmm!" Xiao Wu breathed a sigh of relief. This way, she should be able to gain the understanding and approval of Da Ming and Er Ming.

A glint flashed in Tang San's eyes. During this time, the thought of devouring life had been constantly on his mind.

Human Soul Masters attract attention, and Xiao Wu reminded him that some academies have Soul Beasts specifically for students to test their skills, and the Soul Hunting Forest of the Spirit Hall is a natural hunting ground.

"They were destined to die anyway, so there's no question of them being evil or not, and it doesn't count as violating my vow to Xiao Wu."

After that day, Tang San would always disappear for a period of time.
