Chapter 5 Signing In to Dorm Seven
"Innate soul power is directly proportional to the quality of the martial soul. It's normal for Su Xiao's Light Holy Dragon to have full innate soul power. However, the Blue Silver Grass martial soul obviously doesn't meet the requirements."
Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San thoughtfully. "So, you must be a twin martial soul. The other one..."
"It must be a very powerful martial soul."
Tang San's eyes narrowed, his killing intent still evident despite Su Xiao's intervention. "What exactly are you trying to say?"
Yu Xiaogang turned around, his expression serious. "I want to accept you as my disciple."
"What about me?" Su Xiao interjected.
Yu Xiaogang gave him a faint smile. "You were the one who wanted to take me as your teacher, weren't you? Naturally, I welcome it. However, Tang San seems a bit reluctant."
Su Xiao turned to Tang San, shaking the hand that still held the dagger. His eyes were filled with anticipation.
Tang San hesitated before retracting the dagger. "Everyone says that my Blue Silver Grass is a useless martial soul. Can a useless martial soul even be cultivated?"
"There are no useless martial soul, only soul masters who choose to be useless!" Yu Xiaogang said firmly.
Tang San's eyes softened as he nodded in acknowledgment. He had already begun to accept Yu Xiaogang in his heart.
Seeing this, Su Xiao grabbed Tang San's hand and knelt alongside him.
"Su Xiao and Tang San greet their teacher!"
Yu Xiaogang's expression softened, a rare smile forming on his face. "You must think carefully. A person can only have one teacher in their lifetime."
The two answered in unison, "We've decided!"
Yu Xiaogang helped them to their feet, clearly pleased. "Su Xiao, do you know the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan?"
Su Xiao hesitated before shaking his head.
As a reincarnator who had read the novels and watch the anime, Su Xiao was familiar with much of Douluo Continent. However, he chose to feign ignorance to maintain his cover.
"The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan is one of the top three sects on the continent. Its members take pride in their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon spirit. I was once a member of that clan."
Yu Xiaogang's voice carried a tinge of sadness. "But my martial soul underwent a vicious mutation, resulting in Luo Sanpao. My innate soul power was less than one, and I can never break through level 30 in this lifetime."
As he spoke, he summoned Luo Sanpao. The plump, adorable figure appeared, looking identical to the creature Su Xiao had once read about.
Luo Sanpao stuck out its tongue playfully and leaped into Su Xiao's arms.
Yu Xiaogang continued, "But your martial soul, Su Xiao, has mutated into the Light Holy Dragon, which is even stronger than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon. You must be a descendant of the clan who grew up outside."
Su Xiao smiled as he patted Luo Sanpao's head. "Then that makes us relatives, teacher."
Yu Xiaogang shook his head, his expression somber. "I was expelled from the clan long ago. I am no longer a member of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan."
Su Xiao's face darkened. Gently setting Luo Sanpao down, he declared, "Then I'm just like you, teacher. I grew up in Holy Soul Village and have no connection to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan!"
Yu Xiaogang gave a faint sigh but said nothing more, clearly unwilling to dwell on the matter. Turning to Tang San, he asked, "Tang San, can you show me your second martial soul?"
Tang San nodded and extended his left hand, summoning the small yet imposing Clear Sky Hammer.
Yu Xiaogang's eyes widened in shock. "This... this is... Tang San, your surname is Tang. Could it be?"
Tang San looked at him curiously. "Could it be what?"
Yu Xiaogang composed himself. "Has anyone else seen this martial soul?"
Tang San shook his head. "Other than you and Ah Xiao, only my father has seen it."
Yu Xiaogang nodded gravely. "Do not use this martial soul carelessly in the future. Remember this well."
Tang San's expression turned serious. "Yes. My father told me the same."
Afterward, Yu Xiaogang arranged dormitories for the two.
"Dorm seven is where you'll live from now on. Come to me early tomorrow morning."
Su Xiao and Tang San nodded, pushing open the door to dorm seven.
Inside, they saw a stout boy bullying a group of new students. His loud, overbearing laughter filled the room.
A bit disappointed that Yu Xiaogang is the teacher but what can I do? Just a translator that read as I translate.
