Chapter 284 The Mystery of Twin Martial Souls (Part 2)

Following a master in cultivation, everyone feels that they achieve twice the result with half the effort.

"Xiao San, come out with me for a moment." The master waved his hand, gesturing for everyone to sit down, and then called Tang San aside.

Tang San quickly got up and followed the master outside. The master led him to his dormitory, closed the door, and gestured for Tang San to sit down on the sofa.

The master's room was clearly far superior to the students' dormitory, and Liu Erlong directly gave him her former dean's office in the teachers' dormitory.

The room is not only very large, but its nostalgic decor and bright, airy glass also create a very comfortable atmosphere.

"Teacher, you know everything?" Tang San sat on the sofa, his eyes somewhat dazed.

These past few days, although no one has bothered him anymore, the question of his origins still troubles him, so much so that he can't concentrate on his cultivation as much as before.

He dared not force himself, lest he suffer a qi deviation and become possessed, which would be a greater loss than gain.

The master nodded. "I already know, or rather, I've known all along."

"What?" Tang San suddenly raised his head, looking at his teacher in surprise.

The master sat down in front of Tang San. "Don't be surprised, let me finish. Do you remember back at Notting Academy? As soon as you arrived, I took you as my disciple. That was because I saw your potential in twin martial souls. But at the time, I didn't realize that your other martial soul was the Clear Sky Hammer. Until one day, your father came to me personally and gave it to me."

As he spoke, a flash of light appeared in the master's hand, and he took out a token from his personal soul tool. The token was engraved with six lifelike patterns. Although the colors were not eye-catching, Tang San, who had already heard the master's explanation, knew that this was the highest emblem of the Spirit Hall.

Only those at the Elder level or above of the Spirit Hall can possess this authority, which is second only to the Pope.

The master said, "It was then that I recognized your father's identity. He was none other than Tang Hao, the youngest Title Douluo on the continent, who was also my idol. Your father's title was: Haotian."

"Haotian? Haotian Douluo." Others might deceive him, but Tang San knew that Grandmaster would never do so.

At this moment, he was at least certain that his father was not an ordinary person, but rather one of the most outstanding figures in the world of Soul Masters.

The master continued, "I wasn't familiar with your father; he simply instructed me to take good care of you. There are six patterns on this token. As I told you before, they represent six people who have made special contributions to the Spirit Hall, or who hold the status of Spirit Hall elders. You know, there are only six tokens in total. The six patterns are actually divided into two parts. One part represents the three Title Douluos belonging to the Spirit Hall. The other part represents the three Title Douluos from the three upper sects of the seven major sects. These three Title Douluos have also been granted the status of honorary elders by the Spirit Hall."

Tang San's gaze was fixed on the token, which had six patterns: a sword, a hammer, a crown, an incomplete human figure, a dragon, and a chrysanthemum.

"This token also has a symbolic name, called the Heavenly Dou Six Emperor Token. The sword represents Chen Xin, the Sword Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but this token actually belongs to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and is controlled by Ning Fengzhi, the sect master you met a few days ago. The dragon represents my family, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, and is controlled by my father. The hammer represents the Clear Sky Hammer of the Clear Sky School. However, the person who controls it is your father, not Tang Tian, ​​the current sect master of the Clear Sky School."

"The Clear Sky Sect boasts two Douluo-level masters, the brothers Tang Tian and Tang Hao, who once made the entire Soul Master world tremble. Tang Tian is your uncle, fifteen years older than your father. At the age of sixty, he successfully broke through to level ninety and entered the Title Douluo realm. Your father, on the other hand, became a Title Douluo thirteen years ago, when he was only forty-four years old. That's why I say he is the youngest Title Douluo in the world today, and also my idol."

Tang San's heart skipped a beat. "Thirteen years ago... wasn't that when I was born?"

The master paused for a moment, "Yes, it should have been the year you were born. Your father reached the pinnacle of the Soul Master world. Moreover, according to rumors, with his strength having just entered level ninety, he defeated two Title Douluos from the Spirit Hall, namely the figures represented by the chrysanthemum and the human figure on this plaque. They were Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo. You must know that they had been famous for many years, and their strength had long since broken through level ninety-five. Yet they still could not withstand the power of your father's Clear Sky Hammer. Although I didn't witness it myself, I can imagine how thrilling that battle must have been."

"Why did my father have to fight two Title Douluos one after another?" Tang San couldn't help but ask.

The master shook his head. "I don't know about that, and not many people know either. It seems to be a secret between the Clear Sky Sect and the Spirit Hall. After that battle, your father disappeared, and the Clear Sky Sect also kept a low profile, hiding itself as the number one spirit master sect in the world. Although it still retains the prestige of being the number one sect, some new spirit masters are no longer familiar with the Clear Sky Sect."

"When your father reappeared, it was six years later when he appeared before me. I don't know much about the situation inside the Clear Sky Sect, but I've vaguely heard that the relationship between your father and your uncle seems to be strained. And he had already left the Clear Sky Sect before his battle with the two Title Douluos."

Tang San stared blankly at the master, unable to utter a single word for a moment. He appeared somewhat bewildered, and his eyes were already turning red.

The fact that his father was able to approach the Grandmaster and leave him with one of the most important Heavenly Dou Six Aces shows how much he valued himself. He loved himself.

His departure may have been out of necessity, or perhaps he had many things to take care of.

But Dad, why won't you come back and look at me again?

The master said, "Mistress, don't overthink it. In a sense, perhaps your father has never left your side."

Tang San was taken aback. "Why?"

A strange smile suddenly appeared on the master's face. "Do you remember what you did when you first arrived at Shrek Academy?"

Tang San shook his head in confusion.

The master said, "I heard it from Flander. Back then, Zhao Wuji got itchy and personally examined you children. And you used a hidden weapon to give him a good beating. You were injured yourself in the process. Right?"

Tang San nodded.

The master smiled and said, "But have you noticed any changes in Zhao Wuji afterward?"

Tang San tried hard to think, but his mind was in turmoil because of his father's matter, and he couldn't remember the situation for a moment.

The master said, "Have you forgotten how Zhao Wuji looked, bruised and swollen, starting the next day?" Flander said, "The night Zhao Wuji suffered a loss due to your hidden weapons, a man in black suddenly appeared and lured Zhao Wuji out of the academy. Then, he beat Zhao Wuji up with his bare hands. Flander had already arrived by then, but he didn't dare to make a move. Because the person who beat Zhao Wuji didn't even release his Martial Soul. You should know that Zhao Wuji possesses level 76 Soul Power. What kind of terrifying strength would it take to defeat him without using his Martial Soul? And that person was your father."

"You mean, Dad came to see me?" Tang San suddenly stood up, his body trembling slightly with excitement.

The master nodded and said, "Yes, that was just over a year ago. He came to see you, but he didn't see you. If I'm not mistaken, one reason he didn't see you was because he didn't want to affect your cultivation, and another reason was probably because he was afraid that if he saw you, he wouldn't be able to leave. I think he must have something he had to do, which is why he refused to see you."

Did your father come to see you and even beat up Teacher Zhao Wuji, who had injured you?

Tang San's heart suddenly burned with warmth. When he saw Tai Long's father, Tai Nuo, challenge him for his son's sake, he felt an overwhelming sense of envy. Now, when he learned that his own father had done the same thing over a year ago, that feeling of pride and warmth quietly dispelled all the resentment he had accumulated over the years.

The master said, "That's why I said your father could be by your side at any time. When he deems the time right, he will naturally appear before you. You are surnamed Tang, and you carry the direct bloodline of the Clear Sky Sect. I'm telling you this so that you understand that, for your own sake and for your father's sake, since you've chosen the path of a Soul Master, you cannot stop. Perhaps your father also needs your help. But if you become despondent because of your background and it affects your cultivation, how will you help him in the future? Perhaps he won't blame you for it, but he will definitely be disappointed. You are the son of the Clear Sky Douluo, and you inherit your father's blood. You must prove to your father with your actions and strength that you are qualified to help him. Perhaps your father is waiting for your strength to reach a certain level before he appears before you, who knows?"

From birth until now, Tang San has spent more time with Grandmaster than with his own father. It can be said that Grandmaster and Xiao Wu are the people closest to him besides his father.
