Chapter 637 The Master's Obsession
The master spoke breathlessly, spitting as he spoke, his rapid words laced with unusual anger, attempting to dissuade Tang San from refining the Clear Sky Hammer.
However, Tang San didn't seem to think that way.
After a moment of silence, he raised his head and looked at Yu Xiaogang:
"Teacher, I understand what you're saying and I know you're doing this for my own good, but I have reasons why I have to cultivate the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul."
As Tang San spoke, a strange sense of confidence suddenly welled up within him:
"And I also believe that I will definitely be able to turn danger into safety and emerge unharmed. How could mere twin martial souls become a shackle that limits my ability to improve my strength? Teacher, you can rest assured!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang's eyes reddened even more, and he roared angrily at Tang San:
"fart!"
"In your current state, you simply cannot withstand the consequences of the conflict between the energy of your twin martial souls. You will surely die."
Then, Yu Xiaogang seemed to realize that his words had been a bit too harsh. After taking a deep breath, he slowed down his speech and became more earnest:
"Mistress, don't let momentary impulse cloud your judgment. I know you're eager to improve your skills, but don't rush things."
"You can't grasp the drawbacks of having twin martial souls."
"Give your teacher some time. Once I've fully understood the secrets of the Twin Martial Souls and you have no worries, it won't be too late for you to consider cultivating the Clear Sky Hammer."
At this point, the master's previously slowed speech suddenly quickened slightly:
"Don't act impulsively now."
"According to my training plan, I will first cultivate the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul to its peak, and then cultivate the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul."
"This is the safest, most reliable, and most effective method of cultivation that allows you to discover your own potential."
"As long as you continue your cultivation step by step, you will surely have a place among the strongest in the Douluo Continent in the future."
"In fact, you are the strongest among them."
Immediately afterwards, the master's tone changed, and his expression became serious, even stern:
"However, if you give up your Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul now and switch to cultivating the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul, or even add a Soul Ring to the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul, then let alone becoming a strong person, your path as a Soul Master may be cut short."
"A conflict between twin martial souls is no joke. Even if you manage to survive, the advantage of your twin martial souls will be greatly reduced, or even completely lost."
"By then, it will be too late for you to regret it."
The master's eyes were slightly red, both angry and anxious, yet he had no choice but to earnestly persuade Tang San to give up the dangerous idea of switching to the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul.
Deep down, Yu Xiaogang genuinely didn't want Tang San to switch to cultivating the Clear Sky Hammer, didn't want him to waste the advantage of his second spirit, and didn't want him to squander his talent and potential.
As Tang San's teacher, Yu Xiaogang was absolutely qualified and selfless, but only in terms of Tang San himself.
Yu Xiaogang devoted almost everything to Tang San, his disciple, expending all his energy and effort, and even pouring all his hopes for the rest of his life into him.
Admittedly, Yu Xiaogang hoped to see Tang San's strength improve and become stronger.
However, all of this is based on the premise that Tang San cultivates according to his own plan, rather than taking the risk of switching to cultivate the Clear Sky Hammer.
Otherwise, what was the point of all those years of painstaking education he put into Tang San?
Isn't it all about maximizing Tang San's talent and potential, and raising his future achievements to the highest possible level?
If Tang San can be trained into an unparalleled powerhouse in the entire Douluo Continent, then let's see who dares to criticize Yu Xiaogang, and who dares to call him a waste.
Just one question: who else?
The greater Tang San's future achievements, the more renowned Yu Xiaogang's reputation will become, and the more secure his position will be.
Washing away the name of trash and becoming famous in the Douluo Continent is definitely not a dream.
Dreams will eventually become reality, and Yu Xiaogang has always looked forward to seeing that day.
But at this moment, Tang San wanted to ruin his future and destroy his own dream, so Yu Xiaogang naturally refused to agree to it no matter what.
Moreover, deep within Yu Xiaogang's heart lies a strong obsession.
That is, to make Bibi Dong pay the price she deserves for what happened back then.
Back then, Bibi Dong cruelly abandoned him because he was a good-for-nothing, which not only hurt his feelings but also his self-esteem, and has made him feel inferior ever since.
Bibi Dong's arrogant attitude and the word "trash" she uttered back then are still deeply imprinted on his anger and etched in his heart, making him unable to bear it and filled with hatred.
Yu Xiaogang wanted to take revenge on Bibi Dong, but with his level 29 Great Soul Master cultivation level, which he could never advance further in his life, it was impossible.
He knew very well how terrifying Bibi Dong's talent and cultivation were, just like Tang San's, as a twin martial soul master.
When he was abandoned by Bibi Dong, Bibi Dong was not even twenty years old, but at that time, her cultivation level was already close to the Soul Saint realm.
According to the cultivation patterns of most Soul Masters in Douluo Continent, at the age of twenty, most Soul Masters with slightly better talent are only at the Soul Venerable or Soul Sect level.
At best, he'd be a Soul King.
However, Bibi Dong had already cultivated to the Soul Emperor realm, and could even step into the Soul Saint realm at any time.
It's easy to imagine how terrifying and abnormal Bibi Dong's talent in cultivation is; it's simply beyond the realm of common sense.
Imagine this: while you're still struggling at the Soul Venerable and Soul Sect levels, someone else is already close to crossing over from Soul Emperor to Soul Saint. Wouldn't you be scared? Absolutely not in despair.
This is the terrifying aspect of twin martial souls. Moreover, twin martial souls are continuously nourished by the resources of soul masters, so their cultivation speed is incredibly fast, and progressing a thousand miles a day is nothing special.
By now, Yu Xiaogang could no longer guess Bibi Dong's exact cultivation level, let alone imagine how terrifying her strength had become.
However, it is foreseeable that he is definitely not below the Title Douluo level, and may even have reached the level of Super Douluo.
Otherwise, how could she have secured her position as Pope of the Spirit Hall?
That seat isn't for just anyone.
Based on Yu Xiaogang's understanding of the Spirit Hall, the Papal Palace is the highest symbol of power in the entire Spirit Hall, and below it is the Elder Palace, where every elder is a Title Douluo.
If Bibi Dong didn't have the cultivation level of a Title Douluo, she definitely wouldn't be able to suppress those old guys.
Yu Xiaogang believed he knew Bibi Dong very well.
In his view, Bibi Dong was an extremely serious, persistent, and ambitious person when it came to cultivation.
Given her extremely meticulous and perfectionist personality, once the conflict between her twin martial souls is resolved, she will definitely add a spirit ring to her second martial soul only after she has added a spirit ring to her first martial soul.
Moreover, every spirit ring of the second spirit will definitely be a spirit ring of more than 50,000 years, and may even be a spirit ring of 100,000 years.
During the time Yu Xiaogang stayed at the Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong explicitly revealed to him her longing for a 100,000-year spirit ring, and she had also been collecting information about 100,000-year spirit beasts through the Spirit Hall's channels.
Based on the inference, over the years, Bibi Dong must have successfully hunted down a 100,000-year-old soul beast, and must possess a 100,000-year-old soul ring.
Since we already have a 100,000-year soul ring, we must also have a 100,000-year soul bone.
If Bibi Dong were to collect all nine rings of her second martial soul, it would be unimaginable just how powerful she would be.
Yu Xiaogang harbored a deep-seated desire to take revenge on Bibi Dong, but with his limited strength, he had absolutely no chance, not even the slightest chance.
Therefore, he could only settle for second best and regard Bibi Dong as a rival, training a disciple to compete against her.
That's why he did everything he could to train Tang San.
With Tang San's talent, he is absolutely comparable to Bibi Dong.
As long as Tang San continues his training step by step according to his own plan, his future achievements will definitely catch up with or even surpass Bibi Dong's.
At that time, I will definitely be able to crush Bibi Dong under my feet and make her regret her decision to abandon me.
That said, Yu Xiaogang's method of training Tang San was inspired by Bibi Dong.
Yu Xiaogang originally did not know how Bibi Dong resolved the conflict between the twin martial souls, nor did he know the specific cultivation method of the twin martial souls.
This is Bibi Dong's biggest secret. Even Yu Xiaogang couldn't get any information out of Bibi Dong back then.
However, Yu Xiaogang had more contact with Bibi Dong when she was young, and Bibi Dong didn't really avoid Yu Xiaogang when she was cultivating.
By secretly observing Bibi Dong's cultivation, Yu Xiaogang vaguely gleaned some secrets about the twin martial souls and learned something.
That is, Bibi Dong only cultivates one martial soul, and only adds a soul ring to the martial soul she cultivates, while never touching a second martial soul.
It was because Yu Xiao had secretly observed Bibi Dong's cultivation that she stumbled upon the correct cultivation method for the early stages of twin martial souls.
In other words, you first cultivate the first martial soul, then cultivate the second martial soul, and after adding a soul ring to the first martial soul, you then add a soul ring to the second martial soul.
Later, Yu Xiaogang met Tang San and took him as his disciple. He then taught Tang San this cultivation method, but dared not attempt to make any changes to it.
Because he was unsure of the appropriate level of control, he was afraid of prematurely triggering the conflict between the twin martial souls and causing irreversible consequences.
All he could do was repeatedly remind Tang San that he was not allowed to cultivate the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul before he had cultivated the Blue Silver Grass martial soul to its peak.
This is one of the reasons why Yu Xiaogang insisted on preventing Tang San from switching to repairing the Clear Sky Hammer.
He was scared.
He was afraid that Tang San might accidentally disappear with a "bang".
Tang San was the object of all his hopes, and he absolutely could not afford to lose him.
If Tang San were to embark on the dead end of switching to repairing the Clear Sky Hammer, everything would be over.
This is not just a waste of Tang San's talent and potential; it will also ruin Tang San's future, and similarly, it will ruin Yu Xiaogang's own future.
No, absolutely not.
He absolutely would not allow this to happen.
His future is yet to come, his life has not reached its peak, the label of "trash" still hangs on him, his martial spirit theories have not yet become famous throughout the Douluo Continent, Bibi Dong has not yet received her due punishment, and the Spirit Hall has not yet been destroyed.
At this moment, Yu Xiaogang was overwhelmed with thoughts, his eyes bloodshot as he stared intently at Tang San.
Tang San's lips parted slightly, speechless under his gaze. After a long silence, he finally spoke:
"Teacher, I understand the principles you're explaining, but I still want to cultivate the Clear Sky Hammer, and my father has already agreed."
"What?!" Upon hearing Tang San's words, Yu Xiaogang exclaimed loudly. Immediately afterward, he turned to look at Tang Hao, who was wrapped in a tattered black robe and reeked of alcohol and sourness, and questioned him in a shrill voice:
"Your Majesty, how could you agree to this mistress doing this? You're leading him astray, which is a dead end."
Looking at Yu Xiaogang's reproachful face, Tang Hao frowned. For some reason, he felt a sense of disgust and displeasure, but he didn't show it. He simply said coldly:
"I don't see anything wrong with it."
"I completely agree with the idea that the mistress wants to cultivate the Clear Sky Hammer."
"After all, the Clear Sky Hammer is the inherited martial spirit of my Clear Sky Sect. It's not a bad thing to cultivate it a little earlier. It will also benefit Xiao San's future."
"Besides, I don't think this is a wrong path or a dead end. Master, you're overthinking it."
Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang's eyes reddened completely. Summoning courage from who-knows-where, he suddenly took a large step forward, standing between Tang Hao and Tang San, glaring angrily at Tang Hao:
"No, I absolutely disagree."
"Your Majesty, I am Tang San's teacher, and I have the final say in this matter."
Upon seeing this, Tang Hao's eyes instantly turned cold. "What makes you think you can call the shots? So what if you're the teacher of that mistress? I'm her father! A mere Great Soul Master dares to speak so arrogantly?"
At this moment, Tang Hao, who had previously held Yu Xiaogang in relatively high regard, suddenly felt extremely displeased.
If Tang San hadn't been there, Tang Hao would have loved to slap Yu Xiaogang's stinky face. Who gave him the audacity to give him such a hard time?
Fortunately, Tang Hao only thought about it and did not take any action, otherwise, if he had slapped Yu Xiaogang, he probably would have been finished.
Tang Hao suppressed his anger and sighed softly:
"Master, I know you're doing this for the sake of the mistress, and I also know the drawbacks of having twin martial souls. At the same time, I agree with all the views you just expressed."
Hearing Tang Hao's words, Yu Xiaogang was slightly puzzled:
"Then why did you agree to have an affair?"
Tang Hao didn't let Yu Xiaogang finish speaking, raising his hand to interrupt him:
"However, I think you seem to have misunderstood something."
"What do you mean?" Yu Xiaogang's mouth gaped open, even more puzzled for a moment.
Tang San also looked up at Tang Hao, a hint of confusion in his eyes.
He didn't know what his father meant by those words. Could it be that his father had some special way to avoid the conflict between the twin martial souls?
