Douluo Continent: This Tang San is different

Chapter 247: Evaluation of Gu Yuena's Abilities and Suggestions for Improvement

This man-made lake, with a diameter of over fifty meters, could be considered a small pond.

Hey ~

Evil capitalists!

Wait, is that rich person me?

That's fine.

With a slight sense of感慨 in his heart, Tang San regained his focus and asked Gu Yuena, "You said you were chosen by a silver dragon, and your soul ring grew on its own without the need for hunting. I suppose your soul skill is already determined, so I can't give you any advice."

"You can't do anything about spirit rings and spirit skills, but everyone here says you're a master of spirit theory, so you must be good at other things, right?" Gu Yuena imitated Tang San's signature move, rubbing her chin and saying in a deliberately profound tone, "For example, the timing of using spirit skills, or physical techniques in combat."

"A master of spirit theory naturally only studies spirits. Other aspects, such as physical skills and the timing of using spirit skills, are not actually within the scope of knowledge of a master of spirit theory." Tang San corrected Gu Yuena's view on the master of spirit theory, and then changed the subject, "However, I can indeed train physical skills, or help a spirit master understand when it is best to use which of their spirit skills."

"Narcissistic." Gu Yuena turned her head away and snorted softly.

"This is confidence." Tang San decided not to argue with an older "old rascal" and got down to business, "Have you obtained your spirit ring yet? Let me see it."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yuena released her martial soul, the silver dragon possessed her, and she transformed into a dragon girl. Two pale golden soul rings floated around her, which was extremely peculiar.

"Pale gold spirit rings? That's really outrageous." Although I don't know how many years these two spirit rings have, they are at least in the million-year range.

Tsk tsk, having a secondary account is so satisfying.

"Of course." Gu Yuena seemed quite pleased with Tang San's praise, putting her hands on her hips and laughing heartily.

"What is a Soul Skill?"

After the lively child finished laughing, Tang San continued to ask.

"My first soul skill is the control of water elements!"

"My second soul skill is fire element control!"

With a simple gesture, Gu Yuena raised her hands, and the power of water and fire elements from heaven and earth gathered in them, allowing her to manipulate them into various shapes, which she thoroughly enjoyed.

"Is it the same when your Martial Soul is the Silver Dragon Spear?" Tang San asked curiously.

"That's right." As soon as she finished speaking, the dragon scales on Gu Yuena's body detached and transformed into a spear that was completely disproportionate to her six-year-old height. The water and fire elements transformed into two gems, one blue and one red, which were inlaid in two of the twelve grooves on the spearhead that occupied one-third of the entire spear.

In Tang San's eyes, the Silver Dragon Spear was less of a spear and more of a magic staff that manipulated the elements.

"This guy is a born mage!" Electrox exclaimed. "Unfortunately, his use of elemental energy is still just instinct. Although he controls it very flexibly, he's not much different from most Soul Masters. He just keeps adding elemental energy without doing anything more precise."

"Perhaps it's because she was working in isolation... No, you can't even say she was working in isolation. If your memory of the setting is any reference, she was severely injured by the God Realm Committee as soon as she was born, and fled to the lower realm to hide her identity. She has been recuperating ever since... She's only just woken up!"

"Looking at it this way, it seems that apart from inheriting some of the Dragon God's memories, her personality is really just a little girl who is a bit more mature in some aspects."

Hearing Electrolux's fairly objective assessment, Tang San nodded secretly and said to Gu Yuena, "I have already learned about your soul skills. I estimate that your future soul rings will grant you other elemental control abilities, which is similar to Light Feather."

"Guangling? That guy whose martial soul is a bow?" Gu Yuena suddenly realized, "Indeed, I sensed four elemental powers on her: gold, light, lightning, and ice."

The Silver Dragon King controls elemental power, but he does not fully control the metal and lightning attributes.

In this respect, Guangling still has an advantage.

Moreover, Guangling's soul skill is an arrow, and its penetrating power is far beyond what Gu Yuena, who only manipulates elements, can match. Even if Gu Yuena can control the elemental power in Guangling's arrow, she cannot control soul power.

If the two were to compete, the probability of Guangling winning would be 100%.

There's no other reason than that Guangling's soul power is more than twenty levels higher than Gu Yuena's. In addition, she has also learned Tang San's non-soul skill ultimate technique. Even though Gu Yuena is also a Soul Master, it won't be easy for her to defeat Guangling.

"In the future, you can ask her more questions. Guangling is currently the real expert when it comes to the combination and reconstruction of energy flow patterns, such as elements," Tang San suggested. "As for me, I can teach you physical techniques and fight with you to help you develop your control over your power."

Although the Silver Dragon King focuses on elemental control, the strength of his physical body far surpasses that of all other soul beasts on the continent.

After all, his physical strength is undeniable. His so-called lack of strength is only in comparison to the Golden Dragon King who was sealed in the God Realm. If he were in Douluo Continent, he could still overwhelm Di Tian with a single claw.

Even though Gu Yuena was just a clone, her physical strength far exceeded that of ordinary people.

Therefore, learning some martial arts skills is not a bad thing, but the main goal is to deepen one's control over elemental forces and refine one's operational skills.

"Is that so? Then let's have a fight, shall we?" Gu Yuena's fighting spirit shone through, eager to see how much of a difference there was between her and Tang San.

"Okay." Tang San glanced at Ling Meng standing beside him and gestured for her to move away to avoid being hurt by Gu Yuena, who was known for her reckless attacks.

"I am coming!"

Holding the nearly three-meter-long silver dragon spear in both hands, Gu Yuena shouted and took a few quick steps, arriving in front of Tang San in the blink of an eye.

Um--

The main reason is that the distance between Tang San and Gu Yuena is only about seven or eight meters.

Facing the spear thrusting towards him, Tang San stretched out two fingers and caught it.

"Hehe, you've been tricked!" A sly glint appeared in Gu Yuena's eyes as she channeled her soul power. The water and fire gems on the Silver Dragon Spear resembled two long snakes, coiling around the spear tip and hurtling towards Tang San's head.

"call!"

However, Tang San simply inhaled through his nose and exhaled gently. The airflow he exhaled dispersed the water and fire elements, and the resulting shockwave even caused Gu Yuena to stagger backward. She had to transform the Silver Dragon Spear back into a beast spirit and attach it to her body to barely stop the attack.

"You lost."

"Hmph, it's only because I'm young." Gu Yuena put away her martial soul, turned her head away, and was very unhappy that Tang San had almost made her lose her balance with a single breath. However, she was also shocked. It was truly unbelievable that a mere Soul King could do such a thing, and he even had three martial souls, especially the third one: the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon, which came with a peculiar soul ring. She didn't know what kind of alien dragon it was, but it seemed to be of a higher rank than the Dragon God.

"Indeed, you're still young." Tang San smiled. "From now on, I'll practice with you every day, using less force, and even suppressing my soul power to the same level as yours, hoping you can improve faster."

"Just you wait and see, I'll definitely make you grovel at my feet someday!" Gu Yuena felt mocked and spoke arrogantly to Tang San.

"Oh? Then do your best." Tang San nodded perfunctorily, then beckoned to Ling Meng, signaling her to come over, and gave her a more detailed examination.

Reimu's martial spirit is a black cat, which, due to its integration with her body, makes her a catwoman.

"I don't even know how old you are this year?" Tang San pinched Lingmeng's arms, thighs, neck, and shoulders to check her physical strength, and then asked her a question to divert her attention.

"My Lord, I am fourteen years old." Reimu blushed with embarrassment as she felt her body being kneaded, even though no inappropriate parts of her body were touched.

It should be noted that even in slave markets and online auction houses, she had never been intimate with a man... This was not because the people in those places were virtuous or followed the rules, but because they wanted to sell her virginity for a good price.

"Fourteen years old? The same age as me." Tang San focused his attention on the pair of cat ears on Lingmeng's head, reached out to pinch them, and found that the ears were indeed like cat ears, they could move, and Lingmeng's face turned even redder.

"Um, Your Excellency, could you please not touch my ears?" Reimu's cat ears are very sensitive, and she gets angry if someone touches them casually.

But being touched by the person in front of her caused an itch, as if the other person's hand had magic power, touching her heart and soul.

Tang San released his grip, unaware of Lingmeng's fleeting resentment, and said, "I've already guessed your situation, and according to my examination, your current physical strength is approaching that of a Soul Master... Over the years, you must have been diligently meditating, hoping to increase your soul power, right?"

"That's right." Reimu seemed a little dejected when talking about cultivation, but then her face lit up with hope. "Count, do you think I can continue cultivating? I was born with full innate soul power, but because my martial soul fused with my body, I became a catwoman. My innate soul power is integrated into my body, so I can't acquire soul rings... Do you have a way to prevent my soul power from merging into my body after I reach level ten?"

"have."

Tang San nodded.

Tang San had a method to preserve his soul power and prevent it from merging into his physical body: he simply created a space within his body specifically for storing his soul power.

Tang San alone could not do this.

However, with the help of Electrox, the necromancer with extensive experience in studying the human body, creating a space to store soul power was a piece of cake for him.

Moreover, the relevant principles can also be drawn upon the soul power storage devices in the currently available life soul tools.

but--

"Simply being able to store soul power isn't a good thing for you. I have a better way to allow you to continue cultivating."

"It could even open up a completely new path of cultivation."

Would you like to give it a try?
