Chapter 313 The Haotian Hammer is nothing special

"I think it's not that the Clear Sky Hammer isn't powerful, it's that the person using it is too useless! Give a dog a Clear Sky Hammer, and the dog can swing it more powerfully than him!"

"Tang San? Tang San, right? Remember this, from now on, that's the synonym for trash! A white spirit ring and an empty Clear Sky Hammer, a perfect match!"

"The Haotian Sect has truly declined; they've actually produced such scoundrels. They should just keep the mountain sealed off and stop embarrassing themselves!"

"I thought it was a hidden venomous snake, but it turned out to be a clown wielding a toy hammer!"

The mocking words were like the sharpest knives, slicing cruelly into Tang San's heart, a thousand times more painful than any physical wound! He lay on the ground, his ears filled with those vicious words, countless faces filled with contempt, ridicule, and schadenfreude flashing before his eyes. He could feel Bibi Dong's chilling killing intent from the stands, Ning Fengzhi's complex gaze, the contempt of the victors of the Golden Generation, and… from the Beast God Pavilion stands, Wang Dong'er's undisguised disgust and Ling Han's all-knowing, endlessly mocking gaze!
"White spirit ring...useless...empty shell Clear Sky Hammer...clown..."

These words swirled and magnified in his mind like a spell!
"puff--!"

Overwhelmed by rage and compounded by his severe injuries, Tang San suddenly coughed up another mouthful of blood. This time, the blood was more abundant, thicker, and even contained dark blood clots! He felt a sudden darkness engulf him, the world spun around him, and all sounds and images rapidly receded into the distance. In his last remaining consciousness, only endless resentment, humiliation, and an overwhelming killing intent towards Ling Han that was etched into his very being and could not be washed away even by the waters of the five lakes and four seas!
Immediately, his head lolled to the side, and he completely lost consciousness.

"Tang San!" Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing exclaimed, trying to rush over, but were stopped by the Spirit Hall members.

The referee, expressionless, stepped forward, checked Tang San's condition, and, confirming he was merely severely injured and unconscious, loudly announced his diagnosis. His voice, amplified by his soul tool, resounded throughout the arena, seemingly stamping this farce with its final mark of shame:

"The entire Beast Academy team is incapacitated!"

"The Spirit Hall Academy team wins the first match of the qualifying round!"

The seven members of the Golden Generation looked at Tang San, who was lying unconscious on the edge of the arena with the black Clear Sky Hammer beside him, and their arrogant expressions returned.

Hu Liena glanced at the hammer that had once astonished her, now feeling only utter irony. She snorted and turned to leave the stage. Xie Yue silently sheathed his moon blade. Yan Ze spat at the unconscious Tang San: "Pah! Trash is trash. Giving you a divine weapon would be a waste!"

Amidst the ongoing mockery and discussion surrounding Tang San and the Clear Sky Hammer, the Spirit Hall team departed with their heads held high.

The remaining members of the Beast Academy, amidst boos and pointing fingers, carried the unconscious, blood-covered, and humiliated Tang San off the stage like a dead dog.

The first match of the qualifying round ended in a dramatic and humiliating way that no one expected.

Tang San's "stunning" appearance with the Clear Sky Hammer not only failed to win respect, but instead became an even bigger laughing stock, nailing him to the pillar of shame of this competition and even the entire Soul Master world.

The impact of this upheaval is only just beginning. The news of the Haotian Sect's successor's reappearance will undoubtedly spread to every corner of the continent at breakneck speed.

On the stands, Ling Han withdrew his gaze, a cold yet amused smile playing on his lips. "Tang San, are you satisfied with this grand gift?" he murmured to himself, then looked towards the Spirit Hall's stands not far away. His gaze, equally cold yet carrying a different meaning, met Bibi Dong's for a fleeting moment in the air.

In the general audience area, the noise reached its peak. People whispered excitedly, and the focus of their conversation was no longer on the strength of the Spirit Hall's Golden Generation, but on Tang San, who possessed a white spirit ring, yet revealed the Clear Sky Hammer, the number one weapon spirit in the world, and was then mercilessly crushed.

"Hahaha, this vote was worth it! Not only did we witness the golden generation unleash their power, but we also got to see such a huge joke!"

"The Haotian Sect! That's a legendary sect! I never expected their successor to be so incompetent!"

"I reckon if the elders of the Haotian Sect knew that their direct descendants had made such a fool of themselves outside, they would be so angry that they would jump off the mountain!"

"What direct descendant? I bet he's either someone expelled from the sect or a self-taught amateur who stole a few tricks. If he were truly someone the Clear Sky Sect was grooming, how could it take ten years for his third spirit ring? How could he not even have a single spirit ring for the Clear Sky Hammer?"

"That's right! I think this kid just got incredibly lucky, somehow inheriting the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul, but he's not skilled enough to master it!"

"Poor Haotian Hammer, its illustrious reputation ruined in an instant!"

The mocking, ridiculing, and gloating comments were like invisible whips, lashing at the hearts of everyone connected to "Shrek" even though Tang San was unconscious and couldn't hear.

Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, and the others, their faces ashen, lowered their heads, enduring the strange looks from all directions, and hurriedly took Tang San to the medical station. They too were filled with humiliation and helplessness, but even more so with uncertainty about the future.

Tang San's identity has been exposed, and in such a disgraceful way, it will inevitably bring more unpredictable troubles to their already struggling team.

In the magnificent stands of the Heaven Dou Empire, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe and Ning Fengzhi, the head of the Seven Treasures Hall, sat side by side. The astonishing reversal and extreme humiliation on the arena just now left these two deep-thinking individuals unable to fully calm their emotions for a long time.

The scepter in Ning Fengzhi's hand was merely held loosely, his fingertips unconsciously tapping lightly on it, producing a soft tapping sound. His eyes, which always held a gentle smile, were now filled with deep thought, his gaze seemingly unfocused as it fell on the arena being cleared below.

“Teacher,” Xue Qinghe spoke first, breaking the somewhat awkward atmosphere between the two. His voice still maintained the gentle and calm tone befitting a prince, but upon closer listening, one could detect a very faint, indescribable complex emotion, “I really didn’t expect that Tang San… would actually possess the Clear Sky Hammer.”

Ning Fengzhi slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air. He turned his head and looked at the disciple beside him, whom he had carefully taught and placed high hopes on. His eyes were filled with a rare solemnity: "Qinghe, this matter... is no small thing."

He paused, organizing his thoughts: "The Clear Sky Hammer has reappeared in the world, and in such a... occasion, in such a way. As for Tang San, I only knew him before that he was a disciple of Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang, with decent talent, and a temperament... that seemed somewhat extreme and stubborn. But I never imagined that he was actually a member of the Clear Sky Sect."

Xue Qinghe frowned slightly, a perfectly timed look of doubt and worry appearing on his handsome face: "Teacher, the Clear Sky Sect has been in seclusion for many years, and suddenly a successor appears at the competition, and..." He carefully chose his words, "and in such a... eye-catching way, that he was defeated. Does this mean that the Clear Sky Sect has some new plans? What are they trying to test? Or is this just Tang San's personal behavior?"
