As soon as Xuan Ziwen finished speaking, he imdiately led Huo Yuhao out of the laboratory.
"Co on, hold onto my waist. I'll take you to see the Hall Master right now." Xuan Ziwen stood on the ground, a pair of tallic wings unfolding on his back his custom made eighth tier flying soul tool. Although he was a Soul Douluo and could fly on his own, using an eighth tier soul tool allowed him to travel much faster.
Hearing this, Huo Yuhao imdiately grabbed onto Xuan Ziwen's waist.
"Alright, hold on tight, Yuhao! I'm going to accelerate!" Xuan Ziwen soared into the sky, rapidly flying toward Jing Hongchen's residence with Huo Yuhao. Monts later, the two landed safely.
Xuan Ziwen looked at the house before them, walked up to the door, knocked a few tis, and then waited patiently.
Soon, hurried footsteps sounded from inside, and then the door was quickly pulled open by a fair skinned hand. ng Hongchen appeared before them.
"Teacher Xuan? Huo Yuhao?" ng Hongchen's gaze swept over them. "Are you here to see Grandpa?"
"Yes. I suspect Yuhao's martial soul has undergone a mutation, so we need the Hall Master to take a look." Xuan Ziwen imdiately explained. Although Jing Hongchen, like him, was a soul engineer, he was also a Titled Douluo who had condensed a soul core. When it ca to martial soul cultivation, he was far superior to a re Soul Douluo like Xuan Ziwen.
"Martial soul mutation?" ng Hongchen was slightly surprised. "Co inside. Grandpa went to the palace to et His Majesty today, so he's not here. But he should be back soon."
She then led them into the house and prepared tea for both Huo Yuhao and Xuan Ziwen.
anwhile, at Shrek Academy
Wang Dong, with his pink blue hair, looked at Tang Ya and asked, "Senior Sister Xiaoya, are you really the current Sect Master of the Tang Sect?"
During his ti at Shrek Academy, Wang Dong had t Tang Ya by chance and learned that she was the current leader of the Tang Sect.
"Of course!" Tang Ya nodded confidently.
"Then… can I join the Tang Sect?" Wang Dong asked.
He didn't know why, but the mont he heard the na Tang Sect, a deep urge to join them arose within him.
Tang Ya was montarily stunned, wondering if she had misheard. "Wang Dong, did you just say… you want to join the Tang Sect? Are you sure?"
To be honest, she had little confidence in the Tang Sect's appeal. After all, it had long since declined from its forr glory ten thousand years ago.
"Yes, I'm sure. I've been interested in the Tang Sect's hidden weapons since I was young," Wang Dong replied.
Tang Ya scrutinized Wang Dong for a mont before speaking seriously. "Joining the Tang Sect isn't easy! We were once the number one sect on the Douluo Continent. Though we've declined, that's only temporary!"
Wang Dong imdiately tensed up. "Is there so kind of test?"
"There should be, but… considering your talent, I'll approve your application directly!"
Tang Ya's serious expression vanished, replaced by a bright smile. "From today on, you're a disciple of the Tang Sect! And guess what? You're now the third in command!"
Tang Ya had no other choice. She was determined to revive the Tang Sect, but manpower was scarce. With just her and Bei Bei, expansion was impossible.
She had previously considered recruiting a promising boy nad Huo Yuhao, but he had gone off to visit relatives and declined her invitation. That had been a real disappointnt.
Now that Wang Dong was willing to join, she imdiately accepted. After all, he was the strongest student in Elder Zhou's class!
"That's great! But, Senior Sister Xiaoya… becoming the third in command right away seems a bit fast. I haven't done anything yet," Wang Dong said, feeling a little uneasy.
Tang Ya's face showed slight embarrassnt as she explained, "Including you, the Tang Sect now has only three mbers. I'm the leader, Bei Bei is the second in command, and that makes you the third in command. Don't worry, under my leadership, the Tang Sect will rise again!"
A three person sect… That was a far cry from the Haotian Sect… Wang Dong forced a smile. "I believe in you, Senior Sister Xiaoya. Our sect will definitely prosper!"
Tang Ya cleared her throat and said, "Since you've joined, I have so things to give you. Besides the Tang Sect's secret techniques, I'll also gift you so soul tools and hidden weapons."
She had previously been sowhat opposed to soul tools, as they were the reason Tang Sect's hidden weapons had declined. However, in order to revive the Tang Sect, she had already started considering combining soul tools with hidden weapons.
Wang Dong imdiately beca defensive. "Senior Sister Xiaoya, hidden weapons are fine, but soul tools aren't necessary. As soul masters, our own strength is what truly matters. Soul tools are just external aids!"
He felt as if an inexplicable consciousness in his mind instinctively rejected soul tools. Since he wasn't yet close enough to Tang Ya to explain, he simply gave another excuse.
"Hmm?" Tang Ya was puzzled. She pointed to Wang Dong's waist. "Isn't that a replica of Twenty Four Moonlit Bridges? If I recall, Ancestor Tang San's Twenty Four Moonlit Bridges was also a soul tool. You seem pretty comfortable using it."
Wang Dong was montarily speechless. Right his mind clearly rejected soul tools, yet why didn't it reject Twenty Four Moonlit Bridges? Was it just because Tang San had used it before?
"Senior Sister Xiaoya, do you have any other replicas of the soul tools that Ancestor Tang San used?" Wang Dong asked.
"I do, but… the sect is struggling financially right now, so I can only give you one at most," Tang Ya replied.
"I have 300,000 gold soul coins on this card. I'll take all of them," Wang Dong said, pulling out a card and handing it to Tang Ya.
Tang Ya instinctively swallowed hard Wang Dong had given her too much!
Although she could craft hidden weapons, no one wanted to buy them. The Tang Sect had been struggling financially for a long ti.
She accepted the card and quickly retrieved a pile of soul tools from her Twenty Four Moonlit Bridges. "According to our sect's records, Ancestor Tang San used various soul tools. To honor his legacy, we made a large number of replicas."
Wang Dong nodded in understanding and began running his hands over the soul tools. This ti, he felt no sense of rejection.
"Strange… Why do soul tools that match Tang San's feel so natural to use, while other soul tools feel so wrong?" Wang Dong couldn't understand.
But as the Haotian Sect's young master, he had a certain pride.
Now that he realized his own double standard when it ca to soul tools, he wasn't willing to accept it.
Why is it that only Tang San's soul tools are fine, but everything else isn't?!
