Douluo: Tara's Mask, the Ultimate Darkness!

Chapter 249 Teacher, please stop trying to persuade me, I just want to cultivate!

Tang San, the Toad, only now understood why his mother had made him become Yu Xiaogang's apprentice. (This is just his own imagination.)
Yu Xiaogang is very weak and trash, but the other party also has some merits. At least he is really good to him. Although he also tricked him, he can be considered to have repaid the favor.

As long as the teacher tells me how to cultivate the second martial soul, I won't have any ulterior motives towards you; you'll still be my good teacher.

Tang San, the toad, thought to himself, his expression somewhat excited. After all, this was his biggest secret. His teacher had kept it from him so well, so he must know a lot.

Otherwise, it's impossible that they haven't mentioned it for so many years; it's clear they're preparing for themselves.

"Teacher, I... I didn't mean to hide it from you."

Tang San, the toad, spoke up somewhat embarrassedly.

Yu Xiaogang smiled and shook her head slightly: "Xiao San, the teacher didn't mean to blame you. You did the right thing."

"Given your special status, it's understandable that you'd hide your second martial soul; your teacher can understand."

Special identity?

Tang San, the toad, seemed to have thought of something. He looked at Yu Xiaogang and decided to ask, "Teacher, you always say that my identity is special, and my second martial soul is also special."

"Is my identity related to the Haotian Sect?"

Upon hearing the words "Haotian Sect," Yu Xiaogang immediately stood up and looked around warily: "Who told you these things?"

Seeing Yu Xiaogang's reaction, Toad Tang San immediately understood that his identity was indeed related to the Haotian Sect.

He had only suspected it before, but now he was completely certain that he was a member of the Haotian Sect.

Back in the Star Dou Great Forest, Flander had threatened Xu Xin, revealing the identities of these people: Haotian Sect, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Star Luo Empire, Zhu Family...

Tang San, the Toad, knew very well that Ma Hongjun and Oscar were commoners, Dai Mubai was from the Star Luo Empire, and the Zhu family? It must be Zhu Zhuqing.

Ning Rongrong is the head of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

After eliminating these people, only himself and Xiao Wu are left. As for Xiao Wu, her martial soul is a rabbit, which is completely inconsistent with the Clear Sky Sect's.

And the one left might just be oneself.

Moreover, his second martial soul is indeed a hammer, which is also in line with the Clear Sky Sect, only it has mutated.

Originally, he had no evidence and dared not ask anyone; his identity was a big bombshell!

Only now did he realize that he was from the Haotian Sect, and that the Haotian Sect was the one who abandoned him and his mother. They were truly despicable!
Haotian Sect, you have already chosen your own path to destruction!

"Teacher, it was back in the Star Dou Great Forest..."

Toad Tang San explained why he guessed his own identity.

After listening, Yu Xiaogang nodded. So that's how it is. He had only mentioned it to Flander, asking him to take good care of Toad Tang San. He didn't expect that it would be said so easily.

Well, the matter was urgent, so there was no other way. He didn't blame Flander, but instead praised Toad Tang San's intelligence.

“Little San, since you’ve already guessed it, then I won’t hide it from you anymore. Your identity is indeed related to the Haotian Sect.”

“But you can’t let this get out of hand. I’ll also talk to Flanders about it.”

"As for your second martial soul, well... I don't know whether or not I'll let you cultivate it now."

Yu Xiaogang didn't know how to cultivate the second soul ring, so he could only say this ambiguous thing.

"Teacher, if I don't cultivate my second martial soul, the upcoming competitions will be a disgrace for me, Tang San!"

Tang San, the toad, gritted his teeth, his face full of resentment. He had been reborn, how could he be weaker than others? A true man born between heaven and earth, how could he remain subservient to others for long? He was unwilling, he was proud and arrogant. He possessed twin martial souls, the Mysterious Heaven Skill, the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, and many hidden weapons. This was where he should rise, not where he should fall.

He wanted to make the Tang Clan shine in this world.

To achieve this goal, cultivating a second martial soul is of utmost urgency.

“Mistress, I know what you mean, but now I’m giving you two choices.”

"Do you want your second spirit to have a thousand-year spirit ring or a ten-thousand-year spirit ring now, or do you want it to have nine ten-thousand-year or even one hundred-thousand-year spirit rings after your toad spirit is given a title?"

Yu Xiaogang directly asked the question. He didn't know how to cultivate a second martial soul, nor did he want Toad Tang San to cultivate a second martial soul. However, he couldn't say it outright, so he could only hint at it.

"Teacher, then why don't I just absorb the first soul ring of my second martial soul that takes ten thousand years to grow?" Toad Tang San said.

Yu Xiaogang was taken aback, then shook his head: "Impossible, mistress. You can't absorb a ten-thousand-year soul ring, so there's no need to consider that."

Yu Xiaogang directly rejected the idea, leaving Toad Tang San somewhat helpless: "Teacher, if ten thousand years won't do, I'll absorb a thousand years."

"Moreover, the first three soul skills of the second martial soul do not have any impact."

Tang San, the toad, retreated to a middle ground: "Teacher, as long as I obtain the divine inheritance, these problems will be easily solved."

What Toad Tang San said made sense, and Yu Xiaogang was also considering the feasibility of this matter. To be honest, he was a little tempted.

But he had more to consider: "Little sister, have you ever thought about what would happen if you didn't receive the divine inheritance?"

"What should we do then? Will we have wasted our first three spirit rings?"

Tang San, the Toad, gritted his teeth and said resolutely, "Teacher, the first three spirit rings won't affect anything. But once I reach the title level, I might not even need the first three spirit skills anymore."

"What does it matter? Teacher, just let me cultivate my second martial soul!"

Yu Xiaogang sighed, his eyes darting around as if deep in thought. It seemed he also wanted Tang San, the toad, to cultivate a second martial soul.

After all, this is the second martial soul, and no one can successfully cultivate it. If I can figure it out myself, it will be another major theoretical achievement.

He also had his own selfish motives. This was his first time observing the cultivation of twin martial souls up close, and he didn't want to miss it.

However, he still voiced his concerns, letting Toad Tang San make his own choice, and he would accept whatever the outcome might be.

It's fine if I don't cultivate a second martial soul; it just means the research will take a little longer.

If I can cultivate a second martial soul, I can start researching it now.

No matter how you look at it, he's not losing out. Oh, mistress, you're truly my lucky star.

"Hey, mistress, are you really sure about this?"

Yu Xiaogang asked solemnly.

"Teacher, my mind is made up. Please let me cultivate my second martial soul."

"Even the first three spirit rings won't matter. As long as I break through to the Spirit Master level, I will have a better chance of obtaining the divine throne."

"With the inheritance of divine status, all of this has been worthwhile!"

Tang San, the toad, became determined to cultivate a second martial soul.

A glint of cunning flashed in Yu Xiaogang's eyes, barely perceptible...
