Chapter 668 Thunder Academy Team
Parting the clouds reveals the sun, and waiting for the clouds to part reveals the moon.
The inner turmoil gradually dissipated, and the fog in Tang San's heart quietly dissipated amidst Tang Hao's rebuke and admonition.
As his emotions returned to normal, his expression became noticeably more relaxed. Now, for him, there was only one problem left: how to make himself stronger.
As his thoughts raced, Tang San couldn't help but ponder.
My father is right. I am not even fifteen years old yet, but I am already a level 43 Soul Master, which is outstanding among my peers. There is no need for me to feel ashamed.
Although there is a gap between her and people like Huo Wu and Shui Bing'er, who possess abnormal martial souls and super-limit absorption soul rings, she may still have the opportunity to catch up with or even surpass them.
Previously, I was able to absorb the fourth black ten-thousand-year soul ring beyond the limit, so naturally I will be able to do so in the future.
If others have a ten-thousand-year soul ring, he will have a twenty-thousand-year soul ring; if others have a fifty-thousand-year soul ring, he will get a one-hundred-thousand-year one.
With the help of the spirit rings, I will be able to close the gap in spirit ring quality between myself and them.
Moreover, he not only has Blue Silver Grass as his martial soul, but also a second martial soul, the Clear Sky Hammer, which comes with the Clear Sky Sect's ultimate techniques.
As long as I can learn the Nine Absolute Techniques of Haotian Sect from my father, as well as the Great Sumeru Hammer and the Mysterious Technique of Exploding Rings, then...
Whether it's Huo Wu from Blazing Fire Academy, Shui Bing'er from Skywater Academy, or anyone else, none of them are any match for him anymore.
These are all my strengths, and they are not my only strengths.
Most importantly, he comes from the Tang Clan and has hidden weapons.
At this thought, Tang San's mind suddenly became clear, and he realized that hidden weapons were his foundation.
Blue Silver Grass and Clear Sky Hammer are the two spirit souls he acquired after being reborn into the other world of Douluo Continent. However, his truly powerful methods are the techniques and hidden weapons inherited from the Tang Sect.
No matter how weak the Blue Silver Grass is, or whether the Clear Sky Hammer is suppressed, it doesn't really affect him much.
He also possesses the Tang Clan's inner sect secret technique, the Xuan Tian Bao Lu, the Xuan Tian Gong internal energy cultivation method, the Xuan Yu Shou (a hand technique), the Zi Ji Mo Tong (a technique for training the eyes), the Kong He Qin Long (a technique for capturing and seizing), the Gui Ying Mi Zong (a technique for lightness of body), and the Hidden Weapon Hundred Solutions.
With these abilities by your side, even if you lose your Soul Master abilities, it doesn't mean you've lost your combat power.
Because his strength cannot be measured by the standards of this world, it can be said that he has transcended this world and is a unique existence that is absolutely unparalleled.
As these thoughts surged through his mind, Tang San suddenly understood and stopped obsessing over trivial matters. What followed was the idea of how to become stronger.
He came up with some unusual ideas.
For example, combining Blue Silver Grass with the Tang Clan's hidden weapon techniques can enhance Blue Silver Grass's attack capabilities.
Blue Silver Grass may not be a powerful martial soul, but as the master said, its plasticity is very strong.
If he could combine the Blue Silver Grass with the hidden weapons he inherited from the Tang Clan, what would the effect be?
Tang San's heart suddenly began to pound uncontrollably, and he started thinking about how to combine the Blue Silver Grass with his hidden weapon skills. He couldn't wait to put it into practice.
Just then, Tang Hao, who was standing next to him, suddenly spoke up and interrupted him:
"What are you spacing out for?!"
Tang Hao frowned slightly, looking at Tang San who had suddenly become dazed. A hint of displeasure appeared on his face. Tang San's blank stare and absent-mindedness in front of him was disrespectful to his father.
Tang San snapped back to his senses and quickly said:
"Oh? I'm fine. Father, thank you for your guidance, I've figured it out."
Tang Hao remained noncommittal, frowning as he stared at Tang San for a long while before finally breaking the silence, his voice stern and cold:
"Now that you've figured it out, let's begin our cultivation."
Tang San wanted to say something, but Tang Hao seemed to have read his mind and didn't give him a chance to speak at all.
"Don't you think time waits for no one? Then focus on cultivating the Nine Absolute Techniques of Haotian and stop thinking about other things."
Tang San opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word for a moment.
Actually, he just wanted to say that he had been without sleep for two days and two nights, and his mind was completely exhausted. He wanted to go back and catch up on some sleep.
Once you've rested well, you can cultivate the Nine Absolute Techniques of Haotian with a better mental state; the results will be even better.
In addition, he also wanted to visit his dear younger sister, Xiao Wu.
However, his father didn't seem to give him that chance.
"Let's begin."
Tang Hao's voice was deep and resonant, brooking no refusal.
"Yes, Father."
With tears in his eyes, Tang San could only summon the dark and massive Clear Sky Hammer, and, dragging his severely frostbitten and still not fully healed body, begin to swing it.
…………
One day later.
The preliminary rounds of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament in the Heaven Dou City region have reached the 25th round.
The Shrek Seven Devils, representing the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, have finally encountered another powerful opponent.
"Teacher, please let me make my appearance today."
In the exclusive rest area for participating academies at the Heaven Dou Grand Arena, Tang San stepped forward, looking at Grandmaster with a calm yet confident gaze.
After being defeated by Shui Bing'er from Tianshui Academy, he lay in bed for two days to recover from his injuries and was also depressed for two days. It was only after his father's persuasion that he regained his confidence and then cultivated for another two days.
Finally, a worthy opponent has arrived.
The Clear Sky Hammer in Tang San's hand indicated that it was already eager to try out the Nine Absolute Techniques of Clear Sky that it had just begun to master.
Today their opponent is Thunder Academy.
Due to a dramatic change in fate, Thunder Academy, which should have been ranked first in the preliminary rounds of the Elite Soul Master Tournament, was the most unlucky.
Of the five elemental academies, they only defeated Elephant Armor Academy, but they were defeated by Blazing Fire Academy, Heavenly Water Academy, and Divine Wind Academy.
In addition, they lost to the Spirit Hall's second team, which caused them to fall out of the top five and only rank sixth, on the verge of elimination.
Tang San could already foresee that in this match against the Shrek Seven Devils, Thunder Academy would definitely go all out to try to take a point from them; otherwise, the other side could basically declare their exit from the competition.
However, Tang San was not afraid; on the contrary, he was secretly excited and looked forward to the competition. Even the thousands of pores on his body seemed eager to try.
Of course, the Shrek Seven Devils wouldn't give up on this match. If they could win, they would be just one step away from qualifying.
"Hey, I only have one question for you. If you lead the team, can you guarantee a victory?"
Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San and asked calmly.
He stood with his hands behind his back, head held high, chest puffed out, still exuding an air of superiority. In his hand were several pages of paper containing information about Thunder Academy.
Thunder Academy, one of the five elemental academies, is a top-tier advanced soul master academy in the Heaven Dou Empire and a representative of the extreme style. Its main ability is lightning, the most domineering and violent elemental attribute.
As an elemental academy represented by the lightning attribute, Thunder Academy's admission standard is naturally lightning-based, and all students possess lightning-attribute martial souls.
The same applies to the elite students of the Thunder Academy team who came to participate in the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition.
The information of these elite students is as follows:
Yu Tianxin, Captain, Martial Soul: Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex, Soul Rings: Yellow Yellow Purple Purple, Level 43 Power Attack Type Battle Soul Master, Soul Skills: Blue Lightning Dragon Claw, Thunderous Might, Thunder God's Wrath, Blue Lightning Divine Dragon Swiftness
Lei Dong, Vice Captain, Martial Soul: Thunder Spider, Soul Rings: Yellow Yellow Purple Purple, Level 43 Control-type Battle Soul Master, Soul Skill:
Lei Tian, team member, Martial Soul: Thunder Eagle, Soul Rings: Yellow Yellow Purple Purple, Level 42 Power Attack Type Battle Soul Master, Soul Skill: .
Actually, even without this information, Yu Xiaogang could roughly estimate the overall strength of the Thunder Academy team.
No one knows more about lightning-type martial souls than him.
After all, Thunder Academy's background and backing is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and he is a direct descendant of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and a useless direct descendant whose martial soul has undergone reverse mutation.
He had spent countless hours researching the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Martial Soul and all dragon and lightning-type Martial Souls, all in an effort to overcome the defect of his Martial Soul's reverse mutation and shed the label of "useless."
However, things didn't go as planned.
Even after he had thoroughly studied all the treasured materials of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and thoroughly researched the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul, Dragon-type Martial Soul, and Lightning-type Martial Soul, he still couldn't solve the defects in his own Martial Soul.
The label of "useless" still clings to him, and he can't shake it off.
He was looked down upon by the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus family and suffered endless ridicule and mockery.
Even because of his reputation as a good-for-nothing, his second uncle, Yu Luomian, used the excuse that he was a disgrace to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan to kick him out of the clan and strip him of his status as a direct descendant, forbidding him from ever returning to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
In the end, he had no choice but to go to the Spirit Hall to seek a way out, but he inevitably fell into another abyss and lived a life of suffering ever since.
But it is precisely because of this that Yu Xiaogang has a far greater understanding of the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Martial Soul, Dragon-type Martial Souls, and Lightning-type Martial Souls than others.
"Don't worry, teacher. Leave it to me. We, the Shrek Seven Devils, will surely win this battle!"
Faced with Yu Xiaogang's question, Tang San was stunned for a moment, then shouted confidently.
He shouldn't have been so arrogant in front of the master, but at this moment his confidence was overflowing, and he just wanted to prove that he wasn't just talking big with a resounding victory.
Seeing his disciple's confident demeanor, Yu Xiaogang was extremely pleased. He smiled calmly and decided to delegate authority once again.
"It seems you already have a plan in mind. In that case, this match will remain the same, and you will be in charge of the overall planning and arrangements."
Tang San immediately agreed:
"Yes, teacher, I will definitely not let you down."
"You are my most outstanding disciple, and of course I believe you will not let me down."
Yu Xiaogang smiled slightly, praised Tang San, and then handed the paper in his hand to Tang San.
"This is the information from Thunder Academy. It contains detailed information on all the participating students. Take a look; it will be very helpful for your tactical planning."
As he handed it over, he said:
"I've marked some of the key points that need special attention, so you'll understand them at a glance."
Tang San's eyes lit up, and he quickly took the paper and began to read it.
Yu Xiaogang watched Tang San diligently reviewing the documents, feeling increasingly satisfied. Although he had delegated authority to Tang San, he still seemed uneasy and couldn't help but offer a word of advice:
"Little San, you must remember that your Blue Silver Grass is not immune to water and fire, nor is it immune to lightning."
"Since all the students at Thunder Academy possess lightning-attribute martial souls, your control abilities will be greatly restrained in their presence, preventing you from fully unleashing your original strength."
"I think you should understand that."
"After all, Tianheng is also in our team. You spar often, so you should know how terrifying and troublesome lightning can be."
"Therefore, regardless of the outcome of this match, we must be cautious and absolutely avoid getting injured, especially not like when we faced Blazing Fire Academy and Heavenly Water Academy, where we suffered serious injuries."
"If you lose today, and get injured, both your mental state and your strength will be weakened."
"But we still have two strong teams to play. If we are unlucky in the draw and are drawn against Shenfeng Academy or the second team of Wuhun Hall again, it will be very difficult for us to win."
Tang San's eyes hardened, his burning fighting spirit subsided slightly, and he nodded seriously:
"Teacher, I understand. I will be careful."
The master nodded slightly, then smiled casually and said:
"There's no need to be so serious. I'm just reminding you to take good care of yourself."
"Actually, with your strength, it wouldn't be difficult to defeat Thunder Academy if you went all out."
"The key is that after today's match, you still have three more matches to play. In the next match, you will have a one-third chance of encountering Shenfeng Academy, and similarly, a one-third chance of encountering the Spirit Hall's second team."
"Shenfeng Academy and the Spirit Hall's second team are both currently ranked in the top five of the preliminaries, and their strength is undeniable. If they want to deal with them, the Shrek Seven Devils will probably have to go all out."
…………
The match started quickly.
After losing to Blazing Fire Academy and Skywater Academy, the Shrek Seven Devils could only rank fourth in the preliminary rounds.
—Shenfeng Academy lost to Tianshui Academy in the 24th round, and its score is one point less than that of Shrek Seven Devils, so its ranking has temporarily dropped to fifth.
As of the end of the 24th round of matches, the preliminary results are as follows:
First place: Spirit Hall Academy Second Team, 23 wins and 23 losses in 23 battles, accumulating 23 points.
Second place: Tianshui Academy Team, 22 wins in 23 matches, accumulating 22 points.
Third place: Blazing Academy Team, 21 wins in 23 matches, accumulating 21 points.

Seventh place: Elephant Academy Team, 16 wins in 23 matches, accumulating 16 points.
Eighth place: Blue Tyrant Academy Team, 15 wins in 23 matches, 15 points in total.
12th Place: Canghui Academy Team, 12 wins in 23 matches, 12 points (they withdrew from the competition due to injury, but their results and spot in the competition were retained, and they were considered to have automatically forfeited).
15th Place: Flame Radiance Academy Team, 9 wins out of 23 matches, accumulating 9 points.
24th place: Yue Si Academy Team, 4 wins out of 23 matches, accumulating 4 points.
