The Gains of Zuzong
Evening.
The members of the Emperor Team have returned to their respective residences. After several days of travel, everyone is indeed tired. Even the usually clingy Xiao Wu returned home and fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.
The Emperor Team, also known as the School Team of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, consists of the most outstanding members of the academy. Unlike other students, each member has their own independent residence.
At this moment, Zu Zong has locked the doors and windows of his house and is sitting cross-legged on his bed.
This trip to Soto City has yielded three major gains for Zu Zong: the first is recognizing and establishing a relationship with his little kitty; the second is stealing the Eight Spider Lances; and the third is copying Tang San's three ultimate skills using the Sharingan.
Mysterious Jade Hand: As solid as cold jade, immune to all poisons. At the peak level, it makes the hands immune to all poisons and as hard as rock.
Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon: With a light push, it can use minimal force to control attacks invisibly, allowing the user to grab or control targets from thin air.
Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track: With multiple illusory shadows, it excels at evasion.
While the other skills are of little concern, the Mysterious Jade Hand is what Zu Zong covets for his future plans involving celestial herbs. He has long been envious of Infernal Delicate Apricot and Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass. Zu Zong also wants to experience the intoxicating feeling of refining a body with both ice and fire.
With his hands gathering soul power in his palms, Zu Zong's hands gradually begin to change, emitting a faint jade-like sheen.
Taking a kunai from his system space, he pierced the blade into his jade-like palm.
With a light "ding," his palm remained unscathed.
"Solid as cold jade, immune to all poisons. At the peak level, it can make the hands immune to all poisons and as hard as rock. Is this the Mysterious Jade Hand? I didn't expect that I could cultivate it using the Nine Yang Divine Art. Not bad, considering I spent over a month using the Sharingan to observe Tang San's fighting soul techniques."
Back when he was at Notting Academy, Zu Zong hardly saw Tang San, making it impossible to copy his Tang Sect techniques. It wasn't until the Soto City Grand Fighting Soul Arena, where Tang San participated in the competition, that Zu Zong had the opportunity. However, he used the Mysterious Jade Hand very few times, taking over half a month to copy it.
In addition to this, during the group battle between the Emperor Team and Shrek, Zu Zong copied the capturing method Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon and previously obtained the light skill Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track. Zu Zong has now mastered the three ultimate skills from the Xuan Tian Bao Lu.
He doesn't need the remaining Purple Extreme Demon Eyes and Xuan Tian Gong because he possesses the second martial soul, Sharingan, and the Nine Yang Divine Art.
The Sharingan has powerful abilities such as observation, replication, and hypnosis. This gives Zu Zong extraordinary insight, allowing him to observe soul power flow, see through illusions, and copy body techniques and non-martial soul soul skills. This is also why he could copy Mysterious Jade Hand, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, and Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon.
The Nine Yang Divine Art integrates various martial arts systems; once mastered, it allows access to all martial arts techniques. Zu Zong's ability to master Mysterious Jade Hand, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, and Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon from Tang San is partly due to the Nine Yang Divine Art.
Although, due to the world rules of Douluo Continent, Zu Zong cannot break through to the fifth level of the Nine Yang Divine Art before becoming a Soul Ancestor/Sect, relying solely on the fourth level allows him to use these three ultimate skills without being inferior to Tang San, who has trained for many years.
As for Tang San's Hidden Weapons Technique, Zu Zong hasn't seen it yet. However, he has inherited the superb kunai and shuriken throwing techniques from Uchiha Itachi, which may not be worse than Tang San's hidden weapons technique.
Zu Zong lightly called out, "Controlling Crane Capturing Dragon."
As soon as the words fell, a teacup on the table floated towards him.
Under the influence of his technique, the teacup gradually floated in mid-air.
"Drip." The tea splashed as Zu Zong shook it, using his soul power to return the cup to the table.
"It looks like a weakened version of Sacred Universe Great Transfer, but I still need to practice more. Even if I learn quickly, I've never put it into practice. It seems that currently, only Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track is usable," Zu Zong said with a bitter smile.
Speaking of Sacred Universe Great Transfer, Zu Zong remembered that a few years ago, he had tried to break through the Nine Yang Divine Art and intentionally crossed into the world of The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber. However, he didn't manage to break through, but instead saved Zhou Zhiruo and her family from Yuan Bing, giving them some gold soul coins and sending them to a safe place.
He still remembers that when he was leaving, little Zhou Zhiruo was unwilling to part with him. In frustration, Zu Zong left behind a Blue Silver Grass, telling her that he would return when it grew to a metre tall. But ordinary Blue Silver Grass can't grow that tall. He wonders how she is now; it seems he should find time to go back and see her.
As for Zhang Wuji? Sorry, his fate has nothing to do with Zu Zong.
"System, check my personal panel."
A soft female voice echoed in Zu Zong's mind.
[Ding, system panel is now open]
Host: Zu Zong
Gender: Male
Age: 12 years
Martial Soul: Blue Silver Emperor / Sharingan
Innate Soul Power: Level 10
Soul Power Level: Level 39
Basic Strength: 1000 (ordinary adult male: 10; basic strength is determined by comprehensive physical indicators, excluding martial soul and soul skills, including but not limited to: strength, speed, reflexes, soul power level, and quality, etc.)
System Warehouse: Kunai ×100, Shuriken ×100, Clothing ×5
Overall Evaluation: Little Master.
Remaining Steal Attempts: 2
Hatred Points: 150,400 points

Domain: Blue Silver Domain (Second Form).
Personal Achievement: Soul Master
Looking at the remaining steal attempts on the system panel, Zu Zong was taken aback, shouting in his mind, "System, I've only increased one level of soul power in the past few months, how do I have 2 remaining steal attempts?"
[Ding, the host only stole seven times last time.]
Hearing this reminder from the system, Zu Zong suddenly remembered that after the seventh steal from Gao Yao (Zhao Gao), where he obtained three longevity pills, he was forcibly transported to the "Myth" world, altering the myth's ending.
Gao Yao had his memory erased by Zu Zong's Sharingan illusion, while Yi Xiaochuan, who couldn't consume the longevity pills, remained half-dead. Even with Cui Wenzi around to save him, he would probably end up as a vegetable. Ying Zheng also had his life extended by six months, thus rewriting history.
Stretching out his hand to grasp in the air, Zu Zong took out the three longevity pills. They looked almost indistinguishable from ordinary pills, but Zu Zong could sense the immense energy within them.
After glancing at them, he abandoned the idea of consuming them; he was still young and had plenty of resources supported by the system. Even if he did nothing, he could still reach a divine level. Moreover, Zu Zong had never slackened his training.
After returning the pills to the system space, Zu Zong murmured, "I don't need them now; it's not bad to use them for important people around me in the future."
