Return of Tang San

While Wu Lan was enjoying his peaceful moment…

In a still white place, the Silver Dragon King slowly opened her eyes.The void around her shimmered like frozen moonlight. She had awakened from her deep slumber again.

Her expression shifted. A flicker of surprise danced in her violet-silver gaze.

"That weak lineage I sensed years ago... its power is slowly increasing," she murmured, her voice echoing across the emptiness. "Is he... a reincarnation? Of my other half?"

Doubt clouded her thoughts but it wasn't fear. It was curiosity. Restlessness.A strange warmth she couldn't quite name.

Her slender fingers curled slightly, as if grasping something unseen.

"If it truly is a reincarnation..." she whispered, lips curving into a faint, unreadable smile, "then I will wait for you."

She lowered her gaze, silver lashes brushing her cheeks."This time, I want to see will you destroy me again… or stand beside me?"

And for the first time in centuries, the silence around her felt less lonely.

After that, she returned to her slumber to continue recovering.

Meanwhile…

Tang San had gone to a nearby mountain, his face blank, emotionless.

Finally, after reaching a secluded place, he exploded with emotion, punching the trees with fury.

"Why am I so weak? Why?! Teacher said I would stand at the top with my innate soul power then why!?"

"My Blue Silver Grass is getting weaker and weaker!"

"Why?!"

As Tang San vented his frustration…

Somewhere in the sky, a majestic man stood silently, clad in armor and radiating killing intent. His gaze locked onto Tang San, and he frowned.

"Why is this guy so weak after all the things I carefully arranged?"

He fell into deep thought.

"No mistake should happen. My divine power just slipped and accidentally fell into the lower world. And it happened to land on Tang San. Pure accident."

Tang San, still venting, suddenly felt something fall onto him from above.

Instantly, his whole body warmed.

He sat down cross-legged and began to feel the changes.

His soul power surged breaking through to level 30.His strength, agility, and mental power all increased drastically.

The Blue Silver Grass he once despised now glowed with golden patterns running across it.

After testing his abilities and feeling the massive boost, Tang San grew excited.

Looking up at the sky, he said,"I don't know which senior helped me… but thank you. I will definitely remember this!"

Then, he quickly left the mountain.

The Next Morning

Everyone gathered. Tang San also arrived his face glowing with pride and confidence.

Seeing this expression, Wu Lan felt a strange discomfort.Something wasn't right.

Zhao Wuji and Flender soon arrived.

Flender began giving final instructions.

"Be careful while hunting Oscar's third ring, and "

Tang San suddenly stepped forward, his face serious.

"Dean, I've also broken through to level 30."

Everyone turned their heads to Tang San in stunned silence.

Tang San kept his serious expression but inside, he was celebrating.

'Now you see what a genius looks like. Look at me!'

Wu Lan, though equally stunned, narrowed his eyes and activated his Blue Silver Sense to observe Tang San more closely.

He was searching for soul bones trying to figure out how Tang San had jumped nine levels in a single day.

Did he get an immortal herb?

No, that's not possible. The Sunset Forest is too far. Coming and going takes time.

Did Tang Hao bring him one? No, Tang Hao doesn't even know about immortal herbs.

Did Tang San tell him? No. He'd rather die than reveal his secrets.

Did he get ginseng from the Bai Clan? That's not possible either.

Wu Lan ran through all the possibilities but none of them made sense.

Meanwhile, the others finally snapped out of their daze.

"What?!" Dai Mubai blurted out."Dean, that's impossible! This trash was level 21 yesterday how is he level 30 today?!"

Tang San turned to glare at him, eyes sharp with anger.

Flender quickly walked over, took Tang San's wrist, and checked his soul power.

"...It's true. Level 30."

He turned to the rest. "It's real."

The others looked at Tang San, who tried to keep calm despite how proud he clearly felt.

Flender and Zhao Wuji exchanged glances.

They silently came to the conclusion that Tang Hao must've helped him. So they said nothing more.

"Brother, how did that trash do it?" Xiao Wu asked, tilting her head.

"I have no idea," Wu Lan replied, still trying to recall if he had missed any details.

Did I squeeze Tang San too hard… and trigger his protagonist aura?

While everyone else was still in daze, Tang San was the only one completely satisfied.

They began their journey to Star Dou Forest.

They soon arrived at a town near the forest and checked into a hotel.

Everyone sat down to eat except Zhao Wuji.

Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing sat on either side of Wu Lan.Xiao Wu happily picked food for him, her smile bright.

While Zhu Zhuqing looked at them occasionally, While thinking something.

Dai Mubai looked toward Zhu Zhuqing gloomily he had been ignored again.

Suddenly, Canghui Academy entered the hotel.

Their students strutted in, full of arrogance, radiating soul master pride.

Just like in the anime, Ma Hongjun and Dai Mubai couldn't resist provoking them with words.

Canghui Academy students were quickly irritated, and a clash was about to break out.

Seeing that all of them were only two-ring soul masters, Tang San felt confident.

After gaining power, his desire to gain attention had exploded.

He calmly stepped forward."You all come together."

Ma Hongjun and Mubai looked at him strangely.

The Canghui students, infuriated, rushed forward to teach Tang San a lesson.

But Tang San, with his increased strength and speed, used Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track to dodge and counterattack.His movements were swift and overwhelming.

During the fight, the Canghui Academy Teacher entered and was stunned to see his students being overpowered by one person.

He quickly moved forward to stop the battle and question what was happening.

But Tang San, still riding his high, didn't give him any face.

He immediately activated his Martial Spirit and bound the teacher tightly with his Blue Silver Grass.

The teacher struggled hard but couldn't break free.

Mubai and the others had assumed the Blue Silver Grass would be easy to escape from.But even the teacher struggled to break it which shocked them all.

Wu Lan narrowed his eyes.

He had noticed the Golden Patterns across Tang San's Blue Silver Grass.

That's the proof… of the Blue Silver Emperor bloodline.
