Chapter 231: Su Ming: "It’s Useless to Me, But You Still Have to Give It!"

Su Ming felt disgusted hearing Yu Xiaogang's request. Fortunately, during his fight with Tang San earlier, he had recorded the whole thing, and the recording was still running. This would perfectly capture Yu Xiaogang's ugly attempt to stand on the moral high ground and demand that he hand over the Lingbo Weibu. How naive!

Meanwhile, the female protagonists watching the live stream had just witnessed the power of Tang San's hidden weapons. It was clear that if Tang San's hidden weapons were mass-produced, they would undoubtedly give any faction—whether the Spirit Hall or an empire's army—a significant boost in strength.

They were also curious about Su Ming's talismans, which had been mentioned a few times in his diary. Now, it seemed Su Ming could craft some powerful talismans himself.

The ten second-tier Explosive Talismans he used together produced destructive power comparable to that of a level 40 spirit master. From what they understood, a second-tier Explosive Talisman should have the strength of a level 20 spirit master, but combining them had magnified the effect!

In Bibi Dong's opinion, talismans far surpassed Tang San's hidden weapons in both functionality and power.

However, talismans had their drawbacks too. Tang San's hidden weapons could be recovered after use, while talismans were one-time-use items. On the flip side, low-tier talismans were likely much cheaper to produce.

This gave Bibi Dong a glimpse of a potential future for the world of spirit masters. If Su Ming were willing, could there be spirit masters who practiced both spirit abilities and talisman crafting—people who could become "Spirit Talisman Masters"?

Before they could think too much about it, the live stream took a sudden turn. Yu Xiaogang actually made such an outrageous request, asking Su Ming to hand over his Lingbo Weibu!

How disgusting must a person be to make such a demand! Didn't he know how valuable the Lingbo Weibu was? Even powerful spirit masters like them were tempted by such a dodging ability.

Both Bibi Dong and Liu Erlong felt a pang of regret seeing Yu Xiaogang's shameless face. Were we blind to have once fallen for someone like this?

Su Ming's casual act had revealed another side of Yu Xiaogang to them.

What Bibi Dong didn't know was that in the original story, after Yu Xiaogang parted ways with her and got together with Liu Erlong, he shamelessly went to the Spirit Hall, relying on Tang Hao's token to meet her. His goal was to get her insights on cultivating twin martial spirits! He had the audacity to exploit her past feelings for him.

At this moment, Su Ming, unfazed by Yu Xiaogang's moral posturing, retorted confidently. Morality?

Morality had its limits. When it came to people like Yu Xiaogang or Dai Mubai, was morality really necessary?

Yu Xiaogang wasn't even worth mentioning. How long had Su Ming known these people—barely two months?

Su Ming said calmly, "Master, what you're saying doesn't make sense. Sure, we're classmates and we've been through life and death together in the Star Dou Forest, but I've known them for less than two months. You're asking me to hand over such a precious spirit ability—aren't you overthinking it?"

"Tang San is also their classmate. Why don't you ask him to hand over his Mysterious Heaven Technique?"

"Tang San claims that anyone who wants to learn Mysterious Heaven Technique must first cripple their own cultivation. But who knows if that's true? After all, no one's ever confirmed it."

Su Ming turned to Tang San with a teasing smile, "Tang San, why don't you hand over your Mysterious Heaven Technique too? We can try cultivating it first. You say we need to cripple our cultivation, but I don't believe it. Shouldn't you hand it over so we can confirm?"

Tang San's heart sank. He had thought the matter had passed, but now Su Ming was bringing him into the fire!

Indeed, as Su Ming said, whether or not one had to cripple their cultivation to practice Mysterious Heaven Technique was unknown. In his past life, many people had started with that technique before switching to other cultivation methods later on.

He had only said that to avoid having to share the Tang Sect's secret techniques. Unless someone joined the Tang Sect, he would never teach them. Even then, he wouldn't share it until he was much stronger. Otherwise, how could he maintain his advantage?

As Tang San pondered how to respond, Su Ming addressed Yu Xiaogang again, "Master, look—Uncle Ning has taught me the Split Mind Control Technique in exchange for teaching Rongrong my ability. If you want my Lingbo Weibu, you should offer something of equal value."

"How about you give me your clan's Dragon Transformation Secret Technique in exchange?"

The female protagonists watching the stream couldn't help but laugh. Is this Su Ming's way of dealing with it?

It made sense, though. How could Yu Xiaogang expect to get Lingbo Weibu without offering something valuable in return? Even if he knew the Dragon Transformation Technique, it was probably incomplete. He had been expelled from his clan for so long, and he couldn't cultivate it anyway.

Yu Xiaogang hadn't expected Su Ming to fixate on his clan's secret technique. The problem was, he hadn't learned it himself! Although he was the son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's patriarch, he had only seen some of the training methods.

After all, he had never been able to break through level 29, and the Dragon Transformation Technique could only be officially practiced after absorbing a spirit ring at level 30. But alas, his cultivation had stalled at level 29—a painful memory.

Yu Xiaogang's expression turned grim as he said, "Su Ming, are you serious? Even if I give you the Dragon Transformation Technique, you won't be able to use it! Your martial spirit isn't dragon-related, which means you lack dragon bloodline, and without it, you can't cultivate it."

Su Ming sneered, "So what? Master, this is the only valuable thing you have to offer in exchange for my Lingbo Weibu. We've known each other for years, so I'll be generous. Hand over the Dragon Transformation Technique, or better yet, get Tang San to hand over his Mysterious Heaven Technique, and I'll give you the detailed method for Lingbo Weibu."

Yu Xiaogang had always been interested in Tang San's Mysterious Heaven Technique, but he didn't dare ask for it because Tang San's father was Tang Hao. Unless Tang San offered it himself, Yu Xiaogang wouldn't have the guts to request it.

Looking at the current situation, it was clear that Tang San wasn't going to hand over his technique. After all, with Tang San primarily relying on his Blue Silver Grass spirit and unable to fully use his Clear Sky Hammer, his self-created abilities and Mysterious Heaven Technique were of utmost importance to him.
