213 Tang San decides to practice Clear Sky Hammer

Inside the wooden house, Yu Xiaogang was lying on the bed, his face no longer showing the confidence he once had.

Not only did the Shrek team suffer a crushing defeat, he was also ridiculed by countless people; even more, the affair between him and Liu Erlong was exposed in public.

For a moment, he didn't know how to face the complicated situation. His self-esteem was trampled upon and became worthless.

Liu Erlong has been staying with Yu Xiaogang since she came back, but she never said a word. She didn't know how to face Yu Xiaogang, nor how to solve the current dilemma.

Tang San stood at the door for a long time. Seeing that Yu Xiaogang was depressed, he suppressed the urge to knock on the door and turned around to leave the wooden house.

Once upon a time, whenever he was depressed, it was Yu Xiaogang who counselled him. Now that Yu Xiaogang himself was depressed, Tang San did not want to add to his troubles.

"Xiao San, come to the back mountain to see me!" Tang Hao's voice sounded in his ears.

Given Tang San and the others' current state, they could easily finish last in the qualifying rounds, let alone the finals.

Tang Hao didn't want his son to lose face in the finals, especially in front of the Spirit Hall.

In the back mountain, Tang Hao was sitting on a large protruding rock. When he saw Tang San coming, he didn't say anything, but waved his hand to signal Tang San to sit next to him.

"Xiao San, do you have anything to say about yesterday's game?" Tang Hao asked softly.

Tang San was silent for a moment, then said: "Dad, if I can practice Clear Sky Hammer, we may not lose."

Tang Hao shook his head, "Xiao San, without considering other factors, just based on your situation yesterday. Now think about how you can win the fighting spirit."

Tang San fell silent again.

Because no matter how he deployed, without knowing that Shui Bing'er would release her fifth soul skill at the beginning, they had no chance of winning. Even if he knew, he couldn't make any deployment.

The huge gap in soul power cannot be made up by some small tricks.

Sighing, Tang San shook his head, "Dad, we have absolutely no chance of winning. Our methods cannot pose any threat to them."

Tang Hao smiled faintly and said, "If you abandon all your plans and rush directly towards the Tianshui team after the start, do you still think you will lose?"

Yu Xiaogang's teaching to Tang San is that tactical coordination is more important than brute force. In Tang Hao's eyes, if a problem can be solved with one hammer, he will never swing a second hammer.

While Shui Bing'er was receiving Xue Wu's spirit skill amplification, Tang San had been arranging the positions of his teammates. If he rushed forward and had a melee with them at that time, it would be hard to say who would win.

Perhaps, under their suppression, Shui Bing'er would not have the chance to use her fifth soul skill at all.

Tang San's eyes lit up, he didn't expect that fighting spirits could be fought like this. Even in the match with the Elephant Armor Team, they rushed forward to fight, but also had certain tactical deployments.

He thinks everything is too complicated. Sometimes a simple and crude approach can bring unexpected results.

Of course, Tang San's choice of tactics was influenced not only by Yu Xiaogang but also by the battle between the Tianshui team and the Fenghuo team.

But he seemed to have forgotten that the two schools were originally brother schools, and they would not fight each other in such a brutal way. Most of the tactics that Tang San arranged before going on the field were also imitated from Qi Tian.

"Dad, I made the problem too complicated." Tang San lowered his head and said sincerely.

Tang Hao continued, "Xiao San, victory and defeat are common in the military. The match with the Tianshui team will not affect your final promotion. What you need to do now is to adjust your mentality and win back in the next match."

"The next promotion match will be a one-on-one duel. There are three strong players in your Shrek team. Facing the Tianshui team, you will definitely win."

Tang San's eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes, Shui Bing'er is a control-type soul king, and her own combat power is not strong. In a single-player arena with a very small range, Shui Bing'er would not have time to activate her soul skills before he would get close to her.

But in the subsequent finals, they still had difficulty defeating the Tianshui team in the team battle.

Tang San had a different idea, "Dad, with our current strength, we have no chance of winning against the team in the finals. I want to practice Clear Sky Hammer, do you think it's okay?"

When adding soul rings to the Clear Sky Hammer, his soul power level will also rise. Who knows, after adding four soul rings to the Clear Sky Hammer, his strength will be able to break through the Soul King. In the finals, the competitiveness of the Shrek team will be greatly improved.

Now, they, Dai Mubai, and Yu Tianheng have already absorbed the immortal grass. Even if he finds the immortal grass in the short term, he cannot absorb it. If he wants to quickly improve his soul power, it seems that this is the only way.

"Xiao San, you are still young. You can use this competition as an opportunity to gain experience. In the next competition, there might be a Soul Emperor among you. Such strength is enough to win the championship. Are you still anxious about this?"

Tang San said in a deep voice: "Dad, I don't want to give up this tournament. I want to defeat all opponents and win the championship for the Shrek team. If I don't fight hard in this tournament, it will become an eternal regret."

Tang Hao certainly didn't want Tang San to waste the first four spirit rings of the Clear Sky Hammer, but let alone the finals, even in the promotion match Tang San would meet Qi Tian. With Tang San's current strength, how could he compete with Qi Tian?

How could his son, Tang Hao, lose to a dog of the Tang family!

But it is still unknown whether twin martial spirits are a blessing or a curse in Douluo Continent. The first spirit master with twin martial spirits ended up exploding and dying. Tang Hao certainly didn't want Tang San to follow in the footsteps of the former.

The consequences of practicing or not practicing are both unacceptable to Tang Hao.

How about a compromise and add one or two spirit rings to Tang San's Clear Sky Hammer?

Practicing the Clear Sky Hammer spirit requires an unstoppable determination. If the Soul Master Competition changes Tang San's mentality, the gains will outweigh the losses.

After a long silence, Tang Hao said, "Xiao San, I can take you to add spirit rings to the Clear Sky Hammer. But has the master told you how to cultivate twin martial spirits?"

Yu Xiaogang didn't know how to cultivate twin martial spirits, so he didn't tell Tang San.

In his imagination, Tang San's Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul would first be cultivated to the Titled Douluo, and then he would consider adding soul rings to the Clear Sky Hammer.

Worried that Yu Xiaogang would not agree to let him cultivate his second martial spirit, Tang San said: "Dad, the teacher's current condition is not good, let's ask the teacher later."

Tang Hao's first thought was to let Tang San practice the Chaos Cloak Hammer Technique, so that even without a spirit ring, the Clear Sky Hammer would still have a spirit skill.

As for whether the Clear Sky Hammer was exposed, Tang Hao felt it didn't matter. As long as the competition was going on, the Spirit Hall wouldn't dare to attack Tang San openly. After the competition, he would just take Tang San and hide.

Besides, Tang San would not use the Clear Sky Hammer spirit at the very beginning, but would only use it in subsequent important matches.

"Okay, but I can only add two spirit rings to your Clear Sky Hammer. Don't be greedy, or there will be problems." Tang Hao said.
