Douluo Continent: Son of the God King, Chaotic Time and Space

Nearly a year of study has left many students feeling exhausted, and quite a few are homesick.

The last week before the holiday has begun, and we've entered rest mode early.

Because they completed the plan ahead of schedule and exceeded expectations, Ji Siyuan and Wang Dong'er naturally entered a relaxed state. After all, a balance of relaxation and tension is necessary to better adjust one's own state.

But not everyone can be as happy as they are.

Graduation from Shrek Academy has its requirements, and some students who fail to meet them by the deadline are left with no choice but to give up. This applies not only to sixth graders but also to fifth graders who must strive to graduate next year.

Some were aware of their own limitations and knew that even if they studied for a longer period, it would be difficult for them to graduate from Shrek Academy. They planned to leave early and venture out into the world.

That was Tang Ya's plan. Compared to others, she felt even more desperate. Because everyone she interacted with every day was a genius, several possessing talents she couldn't even imagine.

Even without comparing herself to Ji Siyuan, Huo Yuhao, and Wang Dong'er, Tang Ya knew that there was a huge gap between her and Bei Bei.

She has a strong sense of self-respect, so she chose to leave Shrek.

Outside the school gate, only Beibei knew about this, and only Beibei came to see her off.

Originally, she didn't even want to tell Beibei and planned to leave a letter and leave quietly. But Ji Siyuan warned Beibei in advance, asking him to pay attention to Tang Ya's mental state.

As her partner, Beibei understood Tangya's inner struggles and could guess her choice. She just didn't expect it to happen so soon.

"Maybe things will change if we stay another year?"

Tang Ya chuckled self-deprecatingly, "It's alright, Bei Bei, you don't need to comfort me. I know my talent. Maybe I'll find some opportunities by venturing out into the world."

The two embraced, and Beibei knew that there was absolutely no way she could stop Tang Ya.

The two faced each other, holding hands and pouring out their hearts to one another.

Tang Ya: "Goodbye, Bei Bei. You absolutely must enter the inner courtyard! As the eldest disciple, you can't enter the inner courtyard later than Yu Hao and the others."

Knowing that they would be separated for a long time, Beibei shed tears: "Don't worry, I will be admitted to the Inner Academy next year."

Having made up her mind, Tang Ya released the hug and was about to leave when she heard other people's voices: "Leaving without even saying goodbye?"

Ji Siyuan came alone, without Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong'er.

"Siyuan?" Beibei wiped away her tears. "Xiaoya, she..."

Ji Siyuan waved his hand to interrupt Beibei; he knew better than Beibei what Tang Ya was going to do.

"Sect Leader, do you really think your strength is sufficient?"

One sentence struck a chord with Tang Ya. Her voice trembled: "Siyuan, what are you saying?"

Ji Siyuan continued, "Why do you insist on going by yourself? Wouldn't it be much easier if we waited a while and the rest of us matured?"

"Or is it your bizarre pride that compels you to take on pointless challenges? Do you even possess the Soul Cultivation skill? What makes you think you can defeat the Iron Blood Sect?"

The words were spoken so directly that even if Beibei was unaware of the situation, she understood what Tang Ya was going to do.

"Xiaoya!"

Tang Ya forced herself to remain calm: "How could that be? I know the difference in our abilities. I would never do something foolish."

Hearing Tang Ya still being stubborn, Ji Siyuan sighed helplessly. He wouldn't care about anyone else, but Tang Ya was the first person he saw when he came to this world, and she was also the leader of the Tang Clan. He had to help her.

"Do you want Beibei to hear the rest of the conversation?" Ji Siyuan offered a final way out, but Tang Ya didn't take it, intending to just let it slide.

Ji Siyuan's eyes sharpened: "Tang Ya! If you become an evil soul master, I will cleanse the sect. There will be no capture, only execution! Not even a trace will remain!"

When Ji Siyuan revealed Tang Ya's biggest secret, her face instantly turned pale. It was Bei Bei who spoke up to defend her: "Siyuan, what are you saying? How could Xiao Ya become an evil soul master?"

"I really hope she isn't." In the script, Tang Ya's becoming an evil soul master was more voluntary compared to Ma Xiaotao. She actively used the power of devouring and actively embraced the possibility of becoming an evil soul master.

Before Tang Ya could explain, Ji Siyuan continued, "Your Blue Silver Grass isn't ordinary Blue Silver Grass; it's Blue Silver Grass with a dark attribute. And this dark attribute isn't the same as the Golden-Eyed Black Dragon King's; it's the Devouring attribute of an evil soul master."

"Power is indeed neither good nor bad, and devouring can be a way to improve. The problem is that the rate of improvement from devouring is far greater than that from normal cultivation. Resisting this temptation requires great willpower, and Tang Ya, you can't do it!"

"Don't rush to refute me. You're not even willing to wait for us to grow. With this power, I don't believe you can resist using it to rapidly improve yourself."

As Bei Bei listened to Ji Siyuan's words and saw Tang Ya's face growing paler, she realized that what Ji Siyuan said was true. Tang Ya not only knew that she had this power, but also really intended to use it.

"Xiaoya, I'm sorry. I absolutely cannot let you leave now."

If Tang Ya had become an evil spirit master, and hadn't been encountered by Bei Bei first, even if she had been killed, Bei Bei would have had no grounds for complaint. There wouldn't even be a reason for revenge.

"No, I won't, I won't become an evil soul master!" Tang Ya had an inexplicable confidence: "I will kill the Iron Blood Sect members to complete my revenge and reclaim the foundation that belongs to the Tang Sect."

Every answer she gave avoided mentioning what she should do. Beibei knew Tang Ya's personality well and held on tightly, refusing to let go.

"Beibei! Let me go, or we're breaking up!" Tang Ya screamed, unwilling to rely on others to reclaim the Tang Clan's mansion.

Tears streamed down Beibei's face as she desperately pleaded with Tang Ya, but Tang Ya remained unmoved by her cries. Seeing that her threats were ineffective, Tang Ya immediately drew her knife and slashed at her arm, which Beibei was holding. Beibei's dragon claws snapped the knife in two, blocking the broken blade: "Wake up, Xiao Ya!"

After knocking away the broken blade, Beibei clung tightly to Tang Ya. No matter what Tang Ya did, she refused to let go.

Tang San: "This seems a bit touching."

Ji Siyuan: "Isn't that a bit stupid? I thought I was going to knock her out."

"It definitely requires addressing the mindset, otherwise the behavior will recur. It's best for a partner to handle this kind of mental healing."

Ji Siyuan agreed with Zhi Xin's idea: "Uncle, you see. It's the right thing to do to knock him unconscious first."

"Pfft!" Bei Bei spat out a mouthful of blood. Tang Ya struck his abdomen, then tightly bound Bei Bei with Dark Blue Silver Grass. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry. I'll come back to apologize after I take back the Tang Sect."

Tang San exclaimed, "Poison!" This was the only Tang Sect technique that Ji Siyuan hadn't learned. Tang San didn't think it was important.

Tang Ya tried to run, but the towering flames blocked her escape route.

"How ruthless! You're already making a move before you've even become an evil soul master. Once you do become one, you'll probably have to kill Beibei with your own hands."

A wisp of flame burned away the Blue Silver Grass, and Bei Bei, who had collapsed to the ground, cried out in tears: "Si Yuan, don't kill Xiao Ya. She's not an evil soul master yet."

"This is your last chance, and yours. Blazing Lotus!"
