Douluo: Yu Hao Pan Tang San

Chapter 154, Section 172: Protect Your Grass with Your Hammer

Tian Yue's martial soul is a golden giant crocodile, exuding the aura of an ancient ferocious beast. Like the Heavenly Crocodile, it has a higher development prospect, after all, the Heavenly Crocodile has already reached its final form, while Tian Yue is just starting out.

After the three elders awakened their martial spirits, Qian Renxue summoned them all and said:

"Now I have an announcement to make: I will be forming a team to compete in the Soul Master Tournament eight years from now. This team will be built around Guang Ning, Qing Ming, and Tian Yue."

"Xue'er, this is too biased! My son is good too. He has also awakened the Lion Martial Soul. My Martial Soul is no worse than the Azure Phoenix or the Radiant Feather Divine Bow," the Lion complained.

Qian Renxue explained, "Our enemies are all six years old now. We must defeat them, but the victory we want is a fair and square victory, a victory that leaves them no room for wishful thinking."

"So," the lion said with distress, "this child was born too early."

The lion's beloved son is six years older than Tang San and about the same age as Hu Liena. The descendants of the Thousand-Pound Demon-Subduing Sect are also four years older than Tang San. Their ages will still meet the requirements for the competition eight years later.

However, it's really uninteresting to defeat Tang San and his group from the future by using an advantage built on age.

"However, please rest assured, they will also participate in this Soul Master Competition as substitutes. However, when they encounter Tang San's team, we will strictly adhere to the age limit of fourteen!"

After confirming the core of the team, Qian Renxue led Guang Ning, Tian Yue, and Qing Ming to the Angel Temple to participate in the Angel Trials.

Although the Angel God's inheritance is locked to Angelic Martial Souls, the Angel God will still send down some trials for Soul Masters who do not possess Angelic Martial Souls.

Our future Asura God and Sea God Tang San were unaware that the malice of this world was beginning to loom over him.

Tang San was filled with anticipation for his reunion with Xiao Wu.

After awakening his martial soul, Tang San returned home.

Tang Hao, his face etched with the marks of time, said, "Show me your martial spirit."

"Yes, Father." Tang San summoned his martial soul, Blue Silver Grass.

"Blue Silver Grass, just like her." Tang Hao looked at the golden patterns on the Blue Silver Grass, a complex look of pain and excitement flashing in his eyes.

What pained him was that when he thought of Ah Yin in this life, even in her dying moments, the object of her sacrifice was not him, but his beloved older brother. When he saw the Golden-Patterned Blue Silver Grass appear in Tang San's hands again, Tang Hao couldn't help but feel nostalgic for the gentle and considerate Ah Yin from his previous life. Ah Yin, why couldn't you be reborn with me? Why did you fall in love with Tang Xiao in this life? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have committed so many sins.

What excites him most is that Tang San is his and Ah Yin's son, inheriting a portion of Ah Yin's bloodline and possessing the Golden-Patterned Blue Silver Grass. He is destined to become the Blue Silver Emperor. Once Tang San inherits the Sea God's throne, he will have him resurrect Ah Yin and alter her memories, ensuring she loves him as deeply as she did in their past life. Simultaneously, he will have Tang San help him resurrect his father, uncles, and other wronged souls of the Clear Sky Sect whom he mistakenly killed, thus cleansing his sins. All of this is just around the corner.

Tang San also noticed Tang Hao's complicated expression.

He knew that his father was thinking of his mother. Damn Spirit Hall, I, Tang San, will remember the hatred for you for persecuting my mother. You have already made your way to death. I, Tang San, was able to destroy you once, and I can destroy you a second time.

"Dad, I have another martial soul," Tang San said. "Quick, let me see." Although Tang Hao already knew, he still couldn't help but get excited.

Tang San summoned a small hammer in front of him.

"Hahaha, it's the Clear Sky Hammer, it's the Clear Sky Hammer!" Tang Hao said with a sigh of relief. He said to Tang San in a serious tone, "Remember, San, remember, from now on you must use the hammer in your left hand to protect the grass in your right hand, forever."

"It is Father." Tang San nodded solemnly.

Tang Hao decided to let Tang San continue down the path of his previous life, and let Old Jack take him to the Soul Master Academy in Notting City, where Tang San had connections that he needed to make.

First of all, there's Yu Xiaogang himself. Tang Hao genuinely despises this good-for-nothing. What right does someone like him have to be my son's teacher?

In his previous life, when he was hunting for his first spirit ring, he and Xiao San almost lost their lives to the Mandragora Serpent. At that moment, Tang Hao almost couldn't help but want to save Xiao San. Fortunately, Xiao San was strong enough to take care of the Mandragora Serpent on her own.

A teacher should at least be able to help students obtain spirit rings safely, right? But you, Yu Xiaogang, couldn't even handle a hundred-year-old spirit beast. Are you a qualified teacher? Answer me!

You even had an accident when you got the mistress's first spirit ring, how are you going to help her get the second, third, and fourth spirit rings? Answer me!

As it turns out, Xiao San's second spirit ring was obtained through someone asked by Yu Xiaogang, and all subsequent spirit rings had no direct connection to Yu Xiaogang, the king of trash talk.

This alone is enough to show that Yu Xiaogang is a complete waste of space.

When the mistress became the sea god, that shameless Gangzi said something like, "I've nurtured a god."

However, even this useless guy, Gangzi, still has some value. Bibi Dong doesn't know what's wrong with her brain, but she's so infatuated with Yu Xiaogang that even Qian Xunji has fallen for her.

Knowing this, Tang Hao had Tang San connect with Yu Xiaogang. Yu Xiaogang was a useful protector, so why not use him?

It was only under Yu Xiaogang's protection that Tang San was able to thrive right under the nose of the Spirit Hall (otherwise, do you think a single Papal Decree could make the Spirit Hall submit? Think again. That Papal Decree was originally in my hands, Tang Hao. Why couldn't I use it? It's all because of the relationship between Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang!).
Gangzi's only value was this, but it was this value that made him irreplaceable. Yu Xiaogang was determined to cultivate his mistress to help him make a name for himself. However, he didn't know that if Bibi Dong had won the continental war, he would have had the chance to live forever. But Bibi Dong died in the end. With Bibi Dong dead, it meant that Gangzi had lost his last use. The Tang family abandoned Gangzi on the Douluo Continent without any mercy.

Of course, the mistress ultimately made Gangzi famous and successful, which can be considered a way of repaying Gangzi's final act of protection, right?

Next up is the rabbit, Xiao Wu.

At the Soul Master Academy in Notting City, Xiao Wu and Tang San will fall in love and eventually marry into the Tang family. She will not only bring Tang San three soul rings and soul bones as a dowry, but also use her body to become the scabbard of the Asura God Sword, locking in a God King position for Tang San.

It can be said that Xiao Wu can play a much greater role than Gang Zi.
