Chapter 533 Tang San's Cultivation Arrangements
Tang Hao's answer seemed somewhat unexpected, and Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but feel a little surprised. It seemed that Tang Hao's relationship with the Haotian Sect was much more complicated than he had imagined, and it seemed that it would be difficult to unite with the Haotian Sect through him.
Tang Hao glanced at the silent Ning Fengzhi, then lowered his eyes and pondered for a moment:
"If you want to contact the Haotian Sect, perhaps you can do so through other channels."
Ning Fengzhi's eyes lit up upon hearing this, and he instantly looked up at Tang Hao:
"Other channels? For example?"
Tang Hao stared intently at Ning Fengzhi, and after a couple of seconds, he uttered two words in a low voice:
"Moon Pavilion!"
"Yuexuan?"
Ning Fengzhi was stunned for a moment, then quickly realized who Tang Hao was referring to—Tang Yuehua, the master of Yuexuan Pavilion.
Tang Yuehua is a direct descendant of the Clear Sky Sect, the younger sister of Tang Hao and Tang Xiao, the sect leader of the Clear Sky Sect. However, due to the mutation of her martial soul, her soul power will forever remain at the ninth level, and she will never be able to become a true soul master.
Ning Fengzhi fell silent again, as information about Tang Yuehua surfaced in his mind.
Tang Yuehua was an extremely beautiful woman. Not only was her appearance unparalleled, but her temperament was also unmatched. Every move she made exuded elegance and nobility. There was almost no woman in the world who could compare to her. It would not be an exaggeration to say that she was peerless in beauty.
That woman was no ordinary person either; although she was just an ordinary person, she possessed eyes that could see through people's hearts.
It was precisely because of this that she was able to thrive among the cannibalistic nobles while remaining untainted. Otherwise, the Heavenly Dou Empire's Imperial Etiquette Academy, Yuexuan, would not have been entrusted to her.
However, from another perspective, Tang Yuehua was ultimately just an ordinary person and not a true Soul Master.
In this world of Soul Masters where strength reigns supreme, especially within Soul Master sects, ordinary people who cannot become Soul Masters are always looked down upon and ostracized, and it is even more impossible for them to rise to a high position.
Tang Yuehua was no exception.
Even though she was the younger sister of the sect leader and the former princess of the Haotian Sect.
All sorts of intelligence information indicate that Tang Yuehua's status in the Haotian Sect is not very high, otherwise she would not have stayed in Tiandou City for more than ten years without returning to the Haotian Sect.
This is also one of the reasons why Ning Fengzhi thought of Tang Hao first, rather than Tang Yuehua, when considering candidates for communication and alliance with Haotian Sect.
Of course, Tang Yuehua's reason for not returning to the Haotian Sect may be related to the fact that the Haotian Sect has retreated to the depths of the snow mountain and closed its gates. At the same time, it cannot be ruled out that she was sent by the Haotian Sect to Tiandou City to act as the Haotian Sect's spy to collect intelligence from the outside world.
Although these are just speculations and there is no substantial evidence to prove whether they are true, they are all reasonable suspicions.
However, since Tang Hao mentioned that he could contact the Haotian Sect through Tang Yuehua, it already means that Tang Yuehua must be a spy sent by the Haotian Sect.
Indeed, no opponent should be underestimated. Even a woman like Tang Yuehua, who isn't even a Soul Master, is hiding her true strength so well. Haotian Sect, huh, interesting.
Ning Fengzhi remained silent for a long time, pondering many things, but in the end, all his complex thoughts coalesced into a gentle smile:
"Thank you for your valuable advice, Your Majesty Haotian. I will try to meet with Miss Yuehua and strive to establish contact with the Haotian Sect as soon as possible to discuss the alliance."
"Whatever."
Tang Hao waved his hand dismissively, then added emphatically:
"However, when you meet Yuehua, do not mention anything about me to her. I don't want her to know that I am in Tiandou City."
"Understood." Ning Fengzhi paused slightly, then added, "Your Majesty, I was unaware of the alliance."
Tang Hao pondered for a moment, then looked up and said:
"I can be a part of it, as long as the alliance is dealing with the Spirit Hall."
"However, there is one thing I need to make clear beforehand: I will not be constrained by joining any so-called alliance; I will act according to my own will."
Ning Fengzhi immediately smiled gently:
"Of course, no one will restrict your freedom."
As long as they agree, that's fine. After all, a level 95 Super Douluo is already a top combat force in the entire Douluo Continent, and will inevitably be the core force to deal with the Spirit Hall in the future.
Moreover, with such strength, coming and going freely would be a piece of cake, and who could stop you? Ning Fengzhi agreed to Tang Hao's request without much thought.
The two then exchanged many opinions.
They were chatting happily, just like old friends who hadn't seen each other for many years.
…………
Another hour passed.
It was already late afternoon, almost dusk.
As Ning Fengzhi stepped out of the gate, he turned back and took a deep look at the courtyard where the Shrek Academy students lived. A strange, inexplicable brilliance seemed to shimmer in his eyes.
A moment later, he withdrew his gaze and looked at Ning Rongrong, who was nestled reluctantly in Bone Douluo's arms:
"Rongrong, stay at the academy and study hard, cultivate diligently, and get along well with your teammates. Don't forget the task I assigned you."
Ning Rongrong immediately pouted:
"Ugh, I know, you're so long-winded."
Looking at his daughter's pouty little face, Ning Fengzhi shook his head helplessly:
"Uncle Bone, let's go."
"it is good."
Bone Douluo nodded, bid farewell to his beloved little princess Ning Rongrong, and immediately activated his soul power, taking advantage of the setting sun, to carry Ning Fengzhi back to the direction of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
…………
in the room.
Tang San, with Xiao Wu by his side, stood respectfully before Tang Hao.
Tang Hao, meanwhile, sat casually in the only chair in the room, holding a filthy gourd of liquor and gulping down cheap ale.
"Father, what exactly did you and Sect Leader Ning discuss? Why did you talk for so long?"
Tang San asked respectfully.
"That's something you can't know right now."
After taking a big gulp of wine, Tang Hao casually wiped the wine stains from his unkempt beard before saying something indifferently.
Upon hearing this, Tang San immediately stopped asking questions, but his eyes remained fixed on Tang Hao, as if he were worried that Tang Hao would suddenly disappear.
Noticing Tang San's gaze, Tang Hao couldn't help but smile:
"Why are you looking at me like that? Are you worried I'll leave again without saying goodbye? Don't worry, now that I'm back, I won't leave again."
Tang San scratched his head awkwardly, but the joy in his eyes surpassed everything:
"Really, Father, you're really not leaving?"
Tang Hao did not answer the question, but looked at Tang San seriously and said in a deep voice:
"Let's not talk about these meaningless things, let's talk about your cultivation problem."
Tang San gets excited whenever cultivation is mentioned:
"Father, I am now a level 38 Soul Master, and my first Soul Ring is..."
He immediately recounted his current cultivation level and all the soul skills he had mastered, hoping to receive praise from his father.
However, after listening, Tang Hao only gave two cold words:
"not enough."
"What?"
Tang San's expression clearly froze.
"I said, it's not enough."
Tang Hao emphasized it again.
"Not enough? Why?"
Tang San felt as if a bucket of cold water had been slapped on his forehead, and he was completely stunned.
He is not even fourteen years old yet, but he has already cultivated to the thirty-eighth level of Soul Master. The teachers of the academy, including the strongest Dean Flander and Vice Dean Zhao Wuji, all praised his extraordinary talent and said that he was an absolute genius among geniuses.
Even a demanding person like the master was not stingy with praise.
Is that not enough? What level of cultivation would be considered sufficient?
At this moment, Tang San was bewildered.
Tang Hao silently watched Tang San, whose expression had become blank, his face serious and cold:
"I heard you made a promise to protect Xiao Wu from any harm. Well then, I'll only ask you one question: Did you keep your promise?"
"I"
Tang Hao's words were like a bolt from the blue, leaving Tang San completely stunned.
He couldn't help but recall the promise he had made to Xiaowu—to protect her for the rest of his life and never let her suffer the slightest harm.
But did I actually do it? No, I didn't.
Xiao Wu had been hurt time and time again in front of him, but he was powerless to do anything about it and could only watch helplessly as she was bullied by others.
Ultimately, it was because I was too weak. When facing those truly powerful Soul Masters, my strength was nothing at all.
Yes, with my current strength, can I protect Xiao Wu? The answer is no. Just like my father said, my strength is far from sufficient.
Thinking of this, Tang San lowered his proud head:
"I'm sorry, Father. I was wrong. I shouldn't have been so proud and complacent. I will work harder in the future and meet your expectations as soon as possible."
Seeing Tang San's earnest remorse and admission of wrongdoing, Tang Hao nodded in satisfaction.
"It seems you've realized your shortcomings. Very good. From now on, you will cultivate according to my plan. I will take you to a place for seclusion."
"You will need to temporarily put aside the cultivation of the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul, forget the use of all Soul Rings and Soul Skills, and switch to cultivating the Clear Sky Hammer Martial Soul. I will teach you some skills for using the Clear Sky Hammer."
"Huh?" Tang San was stunned again. "But my Clear Sky Hammer doesn't have any spirit rings, and my teacher doesn't allow me to add spirit rings to it without permission."
Tang Hao immediately smiled:
"Who told you the Clear Sky Hammer can't be used without an attached spirit ring? Haven't you already used it to smash people?"
Huh, how did Father know that I had used the Clear Sky Hammer?
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Tang San's mind, reminding him of the practical assessment when he first entered Shrek Academy. Back then, he had taken Zhao Wuji by surprise, taking out the Clear Sky Hammer and smashing him until his face was bruised and swollen.
Moreover, it is said that after the entrance exam that day, Zhao Wuji was brutally beaten by a mysterious person that very night, turning his head into a pig's head, and it took him several days to recover.
Could the person who did the beating be the father?
Was it because he couldn't stand Zhao Wuji bullying the weak that he wanted to avenge himself?
It turns out that her father had never forgotten her and had been secretly watching over her all along. This was her father's love for her.
At that moment, Tang San suddenly felt incredibly warm inside. It took him a long time to recover from the warmth of his father's love.
"Father, you just said you were going to take me somewhere to cultivate in seclusion?"
Tang Hao nodded slightly:
"Good. Next, you will come with me to a secret place where you will cultivate until the start of the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament."
"I've already chosen the location; you don't need to worry about the rest."
Tang San hesitated for a moment:
"But what about the training the teacher arranged?"
Tang Hao frowned:
"Don't worry about it for now. Those training methods of the masters won't be of much use to you."
In Tang Hao's view, the training arranged by Yu Xiaogang was nothing more than child's play. Weighted running was meaningless for a Soul Master whose physique was naturally strong.
As soul power increases, a soul master's physique will grow accordingly even without much training. Moreover, there are many ways to enhance one's physique, but weight training is undoubtedly the least efficient one.
Furthermore, the essence of a Soul Master lies in Soul Power, while their strength depends on their mastery and proficiency in Soul Skills and other abilities.
Therefore, a Soul Master should focus more on cultivating Soul Power, as well as refining and mastering Soul Skills and other abilities.
The training method arranged by Yu Xiaogang is completely unreasonable. In my opinion, Yu Xiaogang would be better off focusing on studying the martial spirit theory he is good at, instead of engaging in those fancy but idiotic training methods.
Sometimes Tang Hao couldn't help but wonder if entrusting Tang San to Yu Xiaogang was the right choice, as he always felt that he had led Tang San astray.
But on second thought, Yu Xiaogang was indeed a great help to Tang San; at least the martial soul theory he taught Tang San was truly practical.
Moreover, Tang San did indeed benefit greatly from Yu Xiaogang.
Tang San also held Yu Xiaogang in extremely high esteem, even regarding him as a father.
Having considered this, Tang Hao said no more and made the final decision:
"Alright, just follow my instructions to cultivate. As for the master, I'll take care of that."
Tang San immediately fell silent:
"Yes, Father."
After discussing Tang San's cultivation, Tang Hao turned his gaze to Xiao Wu, whose expression was clearly tense, and said in a loud voice:
"And you, Xiao Wu."
"Don't take advantage of your special status to refrain from diligent cultivation, spending your days idly wandering around aimlessly."
"What I give you can't protect you for a lifetime. If you don't cultivate to that level soon, I think you should understand the consequences."
"So, from now on, you must cultivate diligently and not slack off, understand?"
"oh."
Xiao Wu pouted unconvinced, but dared not be presumptuous in front of Tang Hao, so she could only obediently nod her head.
"Father, is Xiaowu also going into seclusion with us for cultivation?"
At this moment, Tang San suddenly spoke up, his tone filled with obvious anticipation.
Unfortunately, Tang Hao directly and explicitly refused:
"No, Xiao Wu wants to stay at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy; it's more suitable for her training here."
Tang San looked immediately disappointed.
Xiao Wu pouted her pink lips, clearly unhappy.
But Tang Hao's words were firm and unquestionable, so neither of them dared to argue or refute.
