After listening to Ma Xiunuo's explanation, Su Yuntao clasped his fists and bowed: "Thank you for your advice."
"Have you counted all the children who have awakened their martial spirits this year? I'll write a letter and give it to the Pope when I hand it in."
"Yes."
I totally cannot understand why the Spirit Hall would train Tang San and Xiao Wu, who are born with full spirit power, in a small place like the Notting City Junior Spirit Master Academy. They have clearly issued a certificate, so it is impossible not to report the statistical results. Then why not take them away? I really don't understand. Keep asking for votes and collections
Chapter 14: First meeting with the "Master"
Gu You and Tang San, who came out of the Spirit Hall, found Old Jack feeding the horses in the stable. Old Jack put the horses away and took the two of them on foot to the Junior Spirit Master Academy west of Notting City.
As Old Jack and the other two walked to the gate, they were immediately stopped by the young man guarding the gate.
"Stop, who is it?"
Seeing that the young man looked unhappy, Old Jack immediately stopped and said with a smile, "Brother, we are from Holy Spirit Village. These two children are our part-time students this year. What procedures do you think we need to go through?"
"Holy Soul Village?" The young man remembered that the dean had told him that two outstanding children would be sent to Holy Soul Village this year. "Where is the certificate issued by the Spirit Hall? Let me see it."
Hearing this, Old Jack immediately handed the certificate hidden in his clothes to the young man.
The young man took a look and thought to himself, "What kind of martial soul is this ultimate conductive beast, and there is also blue silver grass. Can it also awaken the innate full soul power?" Seeing that it was indeed the seal of the Spirit Hall, and thinking of the dean's expression when he spoke to him, his expression eased.
"Okay, old man, you can go back. No one without permission is allowed to enter the academy. I will take these two children to the registration office."
Hearing this, Old Jack patted Gu You and Tang San's heads and said, "You should study hard here and listen to your teachers. Niu Dazhuang from the village is working as a waiter in a restaurant in the east of the city. If you have any questions, you can ask him to pass on a message to me."
Seeing Gu You and Tang San nod, Old Jack rubbed their heads vigorously again, then turned and left.
When Old Jack disappeared in the crowd, the young man said, "Well, don't be sad. You can go home in half a year. Now come with me to complete the enrollment procedures."
The two men had just walked twenty meters behind the young man when they saw a man who looked to be in his forties or fifties, with ordinary looks and a little unkempt, slowly walking towards them.
The young man's expression suddenly turned flattering, and he bowed and said to the man, "Master, why are you here?"
"Master?" Hearing this name, Gu You and Tang San looked at each other in shock.
Both of them controlled their facial expressions very well. Although there was shock in their eyes, the reasons for Gu You and Tang San's shock were completely different.
Tang San was shocked that the person he just chatted with was now in front of him. Seeing his appearance, thinking of the theories that Gu You had refuted one by one, and combining it with the fact that Gu You said he had been stuck at level 29 for a long time, Tang San's first impression of Yu Xiaogang was not good.
Gu You was shocked that in the original novel, Tang San and Old Jack went directly to the academy, and Yu Xiaogang just appeared during the conflict with the guard. But now he clearly took the two of them to the Spirit Hall, the time had changed, and the guard's attitude was okay for unknown reasons.
The time is wrong, and the events are wrong, so why does Yu Xiaogang appear here?
"Is it a coincidence, or the so-called inertia of fate, or was this meeting arranged by Yu Xiaogang?" Gu You's mind was working rapidly, but it was indeed impossible to get the truth based solely on the information in the original book.
Yu Xiaogang didn't care about Gu You and Tang San's eye contact, nor did he notice the look in their eyes. He didn't answer the young man's question. He glanced at the young man and asked with a hint of arrogance in his tone: "Who are these two children?"
Hearing Yu Xiaogang's question, the young man quickly replied: "These two are the children sent by the Holy Soul Village to study this year. I have checked and there is no problem." Then he handed the two's Wuhun Hall credentials to Yu Xiaogang.
Yu Xiaogang took the certificate, his pupils shrank, and he said to the young man: "I will take these two children to complete the enrollment procedures, you go back."
After hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, the young man didn't dare to say "no". He nodded and bowed and left without saying anything to Gu You and the others.
Yu Xiaogang watched the young man leave, not noticing that his hands were still shaking slightly, and that he had crumpled up the Spirit Hall certificate. This detail was discovered by Gu You.
It was certainly not a coincidence that Yu Xiaogang met Gu You and Tang San here, but it was something he deliberately arranged.
The dean of the Notting City Junior Soul Master Academy happened to be his good friend. During the decades here, he would use various methods to inquire about the information of new students every year, just to find a civilian child with amazing talent, accept him as his disciple, and then use his disciple's achievements to enhance his own reputation.
Excellent talent, which can guarantee at least the level of Contra. Born a commoner, as long as the operation is done properly, he can be loyal to the end, and it is easier to control him to experiment with his own theories.
Yu Xiaogang was ecstatic, "Finally it's here. I have endured so many years in this lousy little city, enduring the abuse from these useless soul masters who don't understand my precious theories, and even calling myself a brother to a dean of a soul master academy whose soul power is only in the twenties, just to get these two geniuses in front of me."
"I want to get a position and reputation that is comparable to my wisdom. As long as these two people grow up under my guidance, they will definitely become Titled Douluo in the future. Spirit Hall, Blue Lightning Tyrant Clan, I will make you regret it! All of you who look down on me must die!!!"
"You two, your name is Gu You and Tang San, right?" Yu Xiaogang forced himself to suppress the excitement in his heart, turned around and looked down at the two of them. His attitude changed from arrogance towards the young men to kind, and he forced an ugly smile on his face. This smile was as stiff as if he hadn't smiled for eight hundred years.
Seeing that Gu You did not answer, Tang San took the initiative to say: "Hello teacher, my name is Tang San, the one next to me is Gu You, we are from the Holy Spirit Village, and we come here to study."
Yu Xiaogang glanced at Tang San, "Tang San? Your martial soul is the innate full-spirit blue silver grass. The one next to you is Gu You, who is suspected to be a top-level beast martial soul. It is possible that they have twin martial souls. I will try to trick them later. If they have twin martial souls, then you will be my eldest disciple. If not, then it is useless to rely on a useless martial soul like the blue silver grass. It is useless to mutate into innate full-spirit power. Just be a test subject and help me train Gu You to explore the way."
"Teacher? I'm not a teacher at the academy." The master looked down at Tang San and said lightly.
"You're not my teacher?" Tang San asked doubtfully, "If you're not my teacher, would the guard have handed us over to you?"
Yu Xiaogang shook his head, feeling a little unhappy. Although he didn't want to answer, in order to win the favor of the two geniuses, he forced out that ugly smile again, "Who said that only teachers from the academy can take you to enroll?"
Tang San said: "I understand, then you must be the president of the academy, or a leader."
Yu Xiaogang laughed and said, "You are a six-year-old child, but you are quite smart. However, you still guessed wrong."
Tang San asked doubtfully: "Who are you?"
Yu Xiaogang said: "I am just a guest who eats and drinks here for free. You can call me Master like everyone else. Everyone calls me that. I have even forgotten my own name. The certificate from the Spirit Hall says that your name is Tang San, right? Tang San, you have to understand that Master and Teacher have very different meanings. Don't call me the wrong name in the future. Unless..."
At this point, he paused, his eyes flashing with a burning light, “Unless you really want me to be your teacher.”
At the same time, he silently said to himself: "Let me first use my theory to win you over, and then use the child's competitive spirit to win over the one next to you."

ps: The Yu Xiaogang in this book only represents the author’s guess about Yu Xiaogang’s actions, and is not the original author’s intention. Please be aware.
Suddenly I found out that the water monster event of FGO has started. I heard that the plot of this event is not very good, so I decided to skip the plot and brush the event. I watched a movie with friends in the evening, and the second update will be late. Finally, please recommend and collect
Chapter 15 The "Master" Wants to Take in a Disciple
"Do you want to teach me how to cultivate martial arts?" Tang San asked.
Yu Xiaogang stopped and stood facing Tang San, "Then are you willing?"
Tang San naturally stopped as well, looking up at Yu Xiaogang who called himself a master.
Because Gu You had pointed out the theoretical loopholes of the man in front of him on the way, and the first impression he made on Tang San was not good, plus Gu You had already told him the theoretical analysis and development plan of his martial spirit.
Considering that Yu Xiaogang might have some status in this academy, and for the sake of the next six years of study, Tang San finally did not speak, neither saying yes nor no.
Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San's eyes that were staring at him, and thought, "Damn it, I'm Yu Xiaogang, a master of spirit research, and you didn't agree immediately."
Although he was cursing Tang San in his heart and wanted to call out Luo Sanpao to hit Tang San, he still forced a stiff smile on his face, "Okay, you are really a smart kid."
For Yu Xiaogang, who had no idea what Gu You and Tang San had said along the way, Tang San's silence had two meanings: one was not to rush to refuse, so as not to offend him. The other was to use his actions to ask, why should I take you as my master?
Yu Xiaogang raised his hand and wanted to rub Tang San's head, just like Old Jack did before he left, but Tang San turned his head away.
Yu Xiaogang was even more dissatisfied, but in order to get two geniuses, he still withdrew his hand and said, "You are so talented and so smart. It seems that I have to be persistent for once. After all, you are also the third twin martial spirit in the past hundred years."
After hearing what the master said, Tang San was shocked. The way he looked at the master suddenly changed. He quickly scanned the surroundings, and his left wrist was quietly raised, with a look of surprise and doubt in his eyes.
Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San calmly, and said with a smile: "Are you wondering why I know you have twin martial spirits?" As he spoke, he shook the certificate in his hand, "It's because of this certificate. Maybe other people can't see the flaws in it, but if I can't see it, then I don't deserve the title of Master."
"I have investigated 647 people whose martial souls are Blue Silver Grass. Among them, 16 have soul power, which is less than 3%. Even among these 16 people, none of them has soul power higher than level one, while you have a level 10 innate full soul power. According to one of the ten core competitiveness of martial souls that I studied, the size of innate soul power is directly proportional to the quality of martial souls. Blue Silver Grass obviously cannot meet this requirement, so I can be sure that you must have another martial soul, and it is a very powerful martial soul."
Tang San's eyes gradually calmed down. Although Yu Xiaogang gave his explanation, it was completely different from the answer given by Gu You.
Yu Xiaogang believes that he is an ordinary Blue Silver Grass with innate full soul power, but ordinary Blue Silver Grass is too weak to achieve innate full soul power, so he must have a twin martial soul, and the innate full soul power is brought by the other martial soul.
According to Gu You's theory, his innate full soul power was brought by the Blue Silver Grass, but ordinary Blue Silver Grass could not provide innate full soul power, so his Blue Silver Grass must not be ordinary Blue Silver Grass. However, when awakened, it looked like ordinary Blue Silver Grass that could be found everywhere, so he believed that it was a twin martial soul, and the reason why the Blue Silver Grass behaved ordinary was because it was affected by the other martial soul.
Although Tang San believed that his innate full soul power was entirely due to the Mysterious Heaven Skill, he was more inclined to agree with Gu You's point of view that his Blue Silver Grass was not ordinary because he had twin martial souls.
So Tang San argued: "Everything has exceptions, why can't I be a special case?"
Although Yu Xiaogang was unhappy that a child who had not yet entered school and was not even a spirit master questioned him, he still nodded and said in a friendly manner: "Yes, there are exceptions to everything, but your spirit is Blue Silver Grass, so you are obviously not the exception. In the past hundred years, although there have only been two people with twin spirits in the Tiandou Empire and the Xingluo Empire, there have been nineteen people born with full spirit power. I have carefully studied the spirits of each of them, and they are all powerful. The youngest one has now reached the level of a great spirit master. In addition to the fourteen people who have powerful spirits inherited from their family bloodlines, there are five exceptions."
"Their origins are not noble, but they also possess innate soul power. And this kind of surprise is the existence of mutated martial souls. And according to my research on mutated martial souls for so many years, there is no kind of martial soul that is different from Blue Silver The grass martial spirit will mutate. And your blue silver grass martial spirit is ordinary blue silver grass, so I am absolutely sure that my judgment is correct."
"Mutated martial spirit, what is that?" Tang San asked.
Yu Xiaogang explained, "This requires first discussing how martial souls are inherited. A person's martial soul is directly related to his or her parents' martial souls. The most normal situation is that one inherits the martial soul of either the father or the mother. This is family-style martial soul inheritance. Some exceptions are the so-called mutated martial souls. The source is also the martial souls of the parents, but because the martial souls of the father and mother have a certain degree of variability, the martial soul of the inheritor will mutate and produce a new martial soul. Mutated martial souls can become powerful, and even have innate full soul power. But most mutated martial souls will only become weak. Mutated martial souls are like the product of inbreeding. The probability of an idiot is very high, but there is also the possibility of a wise man far beyond the average person."
Hearing this, Tang San was already a little impatient. He had already heard that Yu Xiaogang said so much because he really wanted to accept him as a disciple.
But Tang San really didn't believe that someone who hadn't been able to advance to the next level in more than ten years could teach him.
Moreover, he revealed his biggest secret in public on the main road of the academy. Gu You was right next to him. Although their friendship over the years made Tang San trust Gu You, what if he and Gu You had a bad relationship, or if someone happened to hide behind the tree next to him, then the secret of his having twin martial spirits would be exposed.
In the past few months after his martial soul awakened, Gu You had told himself many times to hide his second martial soul well. Otherwise, if he offended someone, an ordinary genius might be spared, but a genius with twin martial souls might be killed.
Even a child knows this (in Tang San's eyes), how can you, Yu Xiaogang, a man in his 40s or 50s, not know it? You just casually speak out other people's secrets as a bargaining chip just to prove the correctness of your theory. Are you trying to hint at something?
Rereading the original text, I found that the place where the master chose to say that Tang San was a twin martial spirit was indeed on the road. He was really out of his mind. I'm going to watch a movie tonight and will update tomorrow. Please recommend and collect
Chapter 16 The Master's Theory
It was neither reasonable nor logical for Tang San to admit that he had twin martial spirits.
But Tang San was still very curious about what kind of arrangements Yu Xiaogang, who was respected as a "master" by the outside world, would make for his spirit ring matching.
Thinking of this, Tang San shook his head and said: "Master, I don't have twin martial spirits. I only have one martial spirit, and that is the Blue Silver Grass."
Hearing Tang San's answer, Yu Xiaogang's face suddenly changed. He bent down and grabbed Tang San's shoulders with both hands, shaking them vigorously: "Impossible! You must have twin martial spirits. Tell me, what is your other martial spirit!"
Seeing Yu Xiaogang's performance, Tang San felt even more disgusted with him, but he still suppressed his dissatisfaction and used the Ghost Shadow Mirage method to exert force on his body, which he had been exercising for many years, to push away Yu Xiaogang's hands that had not been exercised for many years. "Master, I really only have one martial soul (do I know you well? Why should I tell you)."
Yu Xiaogang also found that his state was not right. He did not notice that Tang San had used his own strength to push his hands away. He calmed down and cleared his throat: "It's okay if it's not a twin martial spirit. Even the Blue Silver Grass has the possibility of innate full spirit power. It seems that you are the one in a million genius."
Yu Xiaogang originally wanted to calm the two by pointing out that Tang San had twin martial spirits, then pretend to care about them so that they would rely on him, and finally completely subdue them with his martial spirit knowledge. But now all of this has become a mirage in the mirror, not only did he fail to calm the two, but the mistakes he made also made them distrust him, and even doubt his own theory.
Yu Xiaogang felt a little regretful. If he had expressed his guess when only Tang San was around, even if it was wrong, it would not affect his glorious image as a master and martial arts expert in front of Gu You (?). But now, out of greed, he ruined the image in the minds of both of them.
"No, these two people are my best chances, I must get them." Yu Xiaogang thought quickly, thinking about how to gain the trust of Gu You and Tang San.
"Forget it, then just use my invincible martial spirit theory. Only by worshipping me as your master can you have a future." Even after the setback just now, Yu Xiaogang did not doubt whether there were any loopholes in his theory. Instead, he wanted to continue using the theory to subdue the two.
Seeing that Gu You hadn't said anything (and was too lazy to talk), Yu Xiaogang decided to continue using Tang San as a breakthrough point.
Yu Xiaogang was too lazy to pretend, and his reserve was thrown aside. What mattered most was getting these two people. "Even if you have full soul power, your martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, which is determined by its innate nature to be inferior to other martial souls."
"As long as you take me as your master, I will plan your future spirit ring combinations, and I can guarantee that you will become a top spirit master." At the same time, he also said to Gu You: "The same goes for you. As long as you follow my plan, you can also become a top spirit master."
Yu Xiaogang was very confident. He was a great soul master. The dean's cultivation was not as good as his, but he was also given the title of "master". A mere country boy would definitely be his prey.
But Yu Xiaogang didn't expect that Gu You, who was silent at the moment, had told Tang San about the various problems with his theory along the way, and his unkempt appearance also left a bad impression on Tang San, not to mention that he revealed Tang San's secret in public.
Not to mention accepting Tang San as his apprentice, the fact that Tang San didn't use any hidden weapons on him was a testament to Gu You's many years of ideological education.
Tang San didn't care about Yu Xiaogang's attitude. After all, what an insignificant person wanted to do had nothing to do with him. But he still asked calmly: "Master, if I became your disciple, how would you plan the development of my martial soul?"
Yu Xiaogang's heart moved, and he quickly glanced at Gu You who didn't say a word. He didn't pay attention to Tang San's tone, and with a sneer on his face, he replied: "Many people think that Blue Silver Grass is a useless martial spirit, but after years of research, Blue Silver Grass also has its own role. If the spirit power generated by Blue Silver Grass when it awakens is not too weak, even becoming a combat spirit master is not impossible."
