Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 22 Level 13 One-Ring Soul Master

Over the next three days, Tang San asked Teacher Mohen for a long leave. He basically stopped attending classes and instead spent his time in the library, reading various books related to martial souls and soul beasts while testing his soul power and first soul skill.

Most importantly, they discovered another way to use the first soul skill.

That is, when he pressed the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul onto the ground of the playground, he was surprised to find that the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul grew dense roots like those of a thousand banyan trees, taking root in the earth.

Its coverage area extends to a radius of 20 meters from him, and its roots penetrate to a depth of over 20 meters.

Moreover, with the control of his soul power, the area covered by the roots can grow into a field of blue silver grass, and each blue silver grass is a derivative of his martial soul, which can be controlled and can extend into slender leaves.

In addition, the resilience of the thousand banyan branches makes them difficult to cut by ordinary weapons such as swords. Moreover, with the almost infinite energy supply of the earth's power, each leaf can extend more than ten meters.

Although Tang San's soul skill is still endless recovery, once this Blue Silver Grass field is formed, the Blue Silver Grass can be completely controlled by him and become a control-type martial soul.

Imagine this: his Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul consumes little energy, has a large quantity, long leaves, and the strength of a Thousand Banyan Tree. It can be controlled by him, and even a Soul Master would find it difficult to escape if he fell into it.

Isn't that a sitting duck?

Tang San was very satisfied with this.

This soul skill, derived from endless recovery, was also named Endless Grassland by Tang San.

Because once activated, the energy to sustain this soul skill can be drawn directly from the earth without consuming his own soul power. As long as the main root of his Blue Silver Grass martial soul is not destroyed, his Blue Silver Grass will be inexhaustible.

However, manipulating all the leaves of the Blue Silver Grass within a radius of twenty meters is a bit difficult for Tang San at his current level. He can only use them to bind the leaves in a general direction, but he cannot precisely control each leaf.

Because there are just too many of them.

"It seems I need to strengthen my training in the Purple Demon Eye technique and enhance my mental strength. However, the time allotted for practicing this skill each day is limited, only a little time in the morning, so I can only take it slowly." Tang San added two more plans. "Also, the control of soul power needs to be extremely precise. Could we learn from the tree-walking and water-climbing techniques in Naruto?"

In that instant, Tang San thought of many things.

However, when he withdrew his martial soul, he found that many Blue Silver Grass seedlings had grown on the playground. They were very thin, only slightly thicker than a strand of hair.

But it is indeed real Blue Silver Grass.

"Could it be that the life force I released when I used my soul skill affected the seeds of the Blue Silver Grass scattered across the playground, causing them to sprout?"

Tang San felt that his guess was correct. After all, after obtaining his first spirit ring, he was able to draw on the power of the earth, and his life force was terrifyingly strong. If some of it was released, it would indeed allow the Blue Silver Grass seed to sprout.

"However, the blue silver grass in this playground has all sprouted. I hope the work-study students at Notting College won't blame me for increasing their workload."

The appointed day for the battle had arrived.

Today happens to be the weekend, so there are no classes at the academy. Some of the aristocratic students are not at school and have gone home, but the work-study students all live on campus. Meditation practice is rather boring, so they all came over to watch something interesting.

Director Su, Mohen, and the dean from the college also came to join in the fun.

Yu Xiaogang also came over to watch. Although the fight between children wasn't very fun, he might discover some promising talents. However, he stood in a relatively secluded spot outside the crowd.

He knew his reputation wasn't good at the academy, and those kids were known for their loose tongues, so he decided to just watch from a distance.

"Hey, don't blame me for not warning you, Sister Xiao Wu won't hold back." Xiao Wu's martial soul manifested, with rabbit ears growing on her head and a round, fluffy rabbit tail growing from her waist.

A yellow spirit ring appeared, leaving the work-study students in awe.

The dean asked, "Is that the girl with innate full soul power this year?"

Mohen nodded: "Yes, but whether he was truly born a commoner is debatable."

Director Su also said, "Indeed, it's impossible for an ordinary person with a Soft Bone Rabbit Martial Soul to have full Soul Power, let alone have a first Soul Ring that's a hundred years old. Judging from the depth of its color, it's probably over three hundred years old."

With such a Soul Ring configuration, and the first Soul Ring at that, how could this be a commoner?

Yu Xiaogang's eyes lit up. He stroked his stubble and was secretly delighted: "Judging from this girl's figure, she's not very old. I didn't see her last year. She must be a freshman this year, which means she's only six years old."

"Six years old, a hundred-year-old soul ring."

"He is most likely born with full soul power, or at the very least, level nine, qualified to be my disciple, Yu Xiaogang."

While Yu Xiaogang was pondering how to trick Xiao Wu into becoming his disciple, Tang San released his martial soul. A Blue Silver Grass with silver veins grew from his palm, and a soul ring darker than Xiao Wu's yellow surrounded his body.

"His spirit is indeed Blue Silver Grass." Dean Notting looked at Tang San with great interest. "This is Tang San, isn't he? His appearance and demeanor don't seem like those of a commoner."

Director Su said, "He really is a commoner. He was born in Holy Soul Village, where the village chief is his grandfather. Otherwise, how could his martial soul be Blue Silver Grass? Moreover, before he obtained his soul ring, he didn't look like this at all. He was plain-looking, thin, and had dark skin, except for the light in his eyes."

Mohen said, "It must be a mutation of the martial soul. After all, even if ordinary Blue Silver Grass has soul power, it is at most half a level, but he is level six."

On the other side, Yu Xiaogang's eyes widened when he saw Tang San's yellow spirit ring, his heart filled with shock: "The color of that hundred-year spirit ring is definitely more than five hundred years old!"

"But how is that possible?"

"The maximum lifespan of a spirit ring that the first spirit ring can withstand is definitely 423 years; it can't be any higher. My theory is correct!"

"But the depth of color in this spirit ring..."

Facts speak louder than words, and Yu Xiaogang had to believe that Tang San's spirit ring was definitely over 500 years old. After all, being born into the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, he was confident in judging the age of the first three spirit rings.

"This kid is not bad, and he looks somewhat familiar. Is his spirit beast Blue Silver Grass? It seems to be the same one I saw at the entrance of the registrar's office. He's changed quite a bit; is it a mutation that occurred after he obtained a spirit ring?"

"Can mutations in a martial soul affect a person's appearance?"

At this moment, Yu Xiaogang thought about many things, but there was one thing he had already grasped: how to take Tang San as his disciple.

There are no useless martial spirits, only useless soul masters.

Isn't such a gifted child the best example to prove oneself?

Once he grows up and matures, he won't be a clown, but a true master of martial spirit theory, revered by all!

On the playground of Notting Academy, Xiao Wu said, "Xiao Wu, Martial Soul: Soft Bone Rabbit, Level 13, One-Ring Soul Master."

Tang San straightened up, neither humble nor arrogant, and smiled slightly: "Tang San, spirit soul Blue Silver Grass, level 13, one-ring spirit master."
