Chapter 84: Entanglement???
"Let's go back to the academy first. We can talk about everything else later," Tang San thought to himself, suppressing the killing intent in his eyes. He then headed towards Shrek Academy.
Tang San was somewhat dissatisfied with Flender. During the crisis, Flender only saved Oscar and Dai Mubai, completely ignoring him! If he ever got the chance, he would make Flender pay for this.
Flender, carrying Oscar and Dai Mubai, fled from the Star Dou Forest without stopping, flying straight towards Shrek Academy. Oscar was severely injured, nearly losing his life, and Dai Mubai wasn't much better off, also covered in blood.
Tang San had Tang Hao to protect him, so he didn't need Flender's help. Besides, they were all students; who wouldn't he save? Whoever was closer, he saved. Wasn't that normal?
As night fell, Kong vanished from a hotel room and reappeared in the Pure Heartland. He carried a tray with colorful sweet pastries.
During the day, his wife helped him slay powerful enemies. At night, he had to reward her properly.
"Shogun, my dear wife," he greeted Raiden Shogun. Then, he ran towards Raiden Ei.
For Kong, distinguishing between Raiden Shogun and Ei was simple. He just had to see if the triple thunder emblem was glowing. If it wasn't glowing, it was the Shogun; if it was, it was Ei.
"Hmph, you call Ei 'my dear wife,' and you call me 'my dear wife' too," Raiden Shogun rolled her eyes and then disappeared into the Pure Heartland. She returned to Kong's body, as she was now his martial spirit.
Soon, some strange things were about to happen...
"Husband," Ei greeted.
"Raiden Ei, my dear wife, look, I brought you something tasty!" Hearing this, a slight smile appeared at the corner of Ei's mouth.
Time passed. On their way back to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, Tang San had already returned to Shrek Academy. Shrek Academy was only about five hundred kilometers from the edge of the Star Dou Forest, which wasn't much for Tang San, who was now at the Soul Elder level.
After a day's travel, he returned to Shrek Academy. Flender wasn't surprised by Tang San's return. Tang Hao had intervened, so even if he couldn't defeat the two hundred-thousand-year-old soul beasts, he had no problem escaping with Tang San.
Flender was somewhat sentimental. Five people went out, and four returned, with one even wanting to kill him! Flender was still haunted by the fact that Xiao Wu wanted to kill him.
In the quiet night, Tang San was alone in his dormitory. Oscar and Dai Mubai were injured and being taken care of by Soul Saint Shao Xin.
After some thought, Tang San took out the thousand-year Mandala Snake torso soul bone. The dark green light made Tang San yearn for it.
A soul bone, a torso soul bone! This was his first soul bone. If he could get the soul bone from Flender...
"Should I absorb it? It's just a thousand-year soul bone, but it's a torso soul bone!"
Tang San was very conflicted. If it were a ten-thousand-year torso soul bone, he wouldn't hesitate at all. But this soul bone was only a thousand-year one! After a long while, Tang San gritted his teeth, finally sitting cross-legged and placing the dark green soul bone on his chest to begin the fusion and absorption.
A thousand-year torso soul bone was already considered a precious soul bone. Moreover, this was his first soul bone. How could he give it to someone else?
In Shrek Academy, who was worth giving this soul bone to?
As the moon set and the sun rose, Tang San opened his eyes again when the first ray of sunlight fell. The fusion of the thousand-year Mandala Snake torso soul bone was a complete success!
"Soul bones really are incredible!" Tang San felt his soul power, realizing he had already reached level thirty-two! Moreover, this soul bone passively amplified all his attributes! Although the increase wasn't significant, it was still a passive boost!
Suddenly, Tang San frowned, a trace of confusion flashing in his eyes. When he came back to his senses, he couldn't help but twitch the corners of his mouth.
"Entanglement???"
The thousand-year Mandala Snake torso soul bone skill: Entanglement! This soul bone's active skill, as the name suggests, involves using the body as a rope to achieve the purpose of entangling.
"This... this soul bone skill..."
Cold sweat appeared on Tang San's forehead, and he felt a bit numb.
This soul bone skill was really hard for him to accept! After a long time, Tang San shook his head. Upon careful thought, this soul bone skill wasn't entirely useless.
There are no useless soul masters, only useless soul skills.
As long as it's properly developed, this soul bone skill can be very useful, whether for evading enemy attacks or for surviving dangerous situations! With this realization, Tang San gathered his things and headed to the cafeteria.
It was rare for Tang San to not practice his Purple Demon Eye today, as he had missed the first ray of sunlight due to absorbing the soul bone.
One day or two days off, he thought to himself.
Entering the cafeteria, Tang San's eyes focused, and his pupils shrank. He exclaimed, "Teacher?!"
"Xiao San, sit down and eat first," Yu Xiaogang nodded, placing a bowl of porridge and steamed buns next to Tang San.
Tang San was pleasantly surprised to see his teacher at Shrek Academy!
Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang felt very satisfied. "Eat first. After eating, come with me."
He had arrived last night. After hearing about the dangers of the journey from Flender, Yu Xiaogang had also been worried.
Fortunately, with the help of Haotian Douluo, everyone managed to leave the Star Dou Forest safely!
Flender also mentioned that Tang San had broken through to the Soul Elder level, but he didn't know what kind of soul beast the third soul ring came from.
"Yes, Teacher!" Tang San nodded quickly and began eating. He ate much faster than usual.
He was excited about receiving his teacher's guidance soon! He had many questions, such as those about Xiao Wu, the two hundred-thousand-year soul beasts, and his father, Tang Hao.
Why would a Titled Douluo with a hundred-thousand-year soul ring be a blacksmith in a small place like Holy Soul Village? Tang San couldn't understand...
After a while, Yu Xiaogang and Tang San arrived at an empty, deserted place.
"Xiao San, I know you have many questions. I can slowly explain these things to you. But for now, release your soul rings..." Yu Xiaogang's main concern was Tang San's development; other matters were secondary to him.
Except for the issue of Xiao Wu!
"Yes, Teacher," Tang San replied, then extended his right hand. His Blue Silver Grass martial soul appeared in his hand, and three soul rings—yellow, yellow, and purple—rose slowly from his feet.
When Tang San's third soul ring appeared, Yu Xiaogang frowned, looking at Tang San with a strange expression.
This shouldn't be...
