Chapter 78
Tang 3 Fights Youxing Again!
Chapter 78 Tang San Fights the Wandering Star Again!
"Blue Silver Grass is currently too weak. It's okay against weaker Soul Masters, but it's completely ineffective against genius-level Soul Masters of the same rank!"
The last duel had taught Tang San this lesson. Knowing the huge difference in their martial souls, he did not feel slighted this time just because Youxing did not release his martial soul.
Because that is indeed the truth!
If he only had Blue Silver Grass, he definitely couldn't beat Yusei now!
but……
"Hidden weapons are my true power! Last time, I ran out of them because I wasn't prepared enough. But this time, the outcome will be different!"
The last time he suffered such a devastating defeat, it was a defeat against overwhelming odds... No matter how unwilling Tang San was to admit it, this fact would not change.
The question is, could the proud Tang San accept being completely powerless to resist and utterly defeated by someone his own age?
That's obviously impossible!
At this moment, two extremely suitable reasons naturally emerged, becoming a stepping stone for Tang San's mind.
One factor is age.
Yu Xing was ultimately three years older than him! In the early stages of a Soul Master's cultivation, the significance of three years is self-evident!
But how could Tang San possibly accept such a reason?
He had clearly seen that Yusei had only activated his Martial Soul Possession because of the large number of enemies at that time, but in reality, Yusei had already completely suppressed him without using Martial Soul Possession!
Three years of training have yielded significant improvements in physical growth, soul power level, and combat skills and experience!
Physical growth... Youxing, a beast spirit master, doesn't even need spirit possession anymore, so what else is there to say about that?
In terms of soul power, Tang San possessed innate full soul power! As far as he knew, You Xing's innate soul power level was definitely not innate full soul power! As one-ring soul masters, the difference was definitely not that great.
As for combat experience? Tang San knew perfectly well that his experience from his previous life gave him an advantage in this area!
Even so, it was still a complete defeat!
Others can comfort themselves with age, but how can Tang San comfort himself with age?
then……
"It must be because I didn't use any hidden weapons that I lost!"
This became the best reason.
Tang San rapidly approached Youxing, closing the distance, silently adjusting the hidden weapon in his sleeve to a ready-to-fire state, his gaze sharp: 'Youxing, I'll show you that in front of me, you're not even qualified to hold back your Martial Soul!'
Tang San was full of fighting spirit, but under the operation of the orthodox Taoist Xuan Tian Gong, he was extremely calm.
He didn't immediately unleash a hidden weapon as he had in his inner monologue. Instead, he swung his right hand, employing the technique of controlling a crane to capture a dragon, and the Blue Silver Grass was flung out at lightning speed like splitting vines.
An outsider might have commented something like, "Is this the same old trick again? Don't you know it doesn't work on me?!"
Although Yu Xing, or rather, the actual Yu Chen himself, believed this in his heart, he would not say such things that were inconsistent with his character.
His approach was simple and direct. He completely ignored the Blue Silver Grass that was covering his face, clenched his fist, and aimed directly at Tang San's position to unleash a punch!
Not only did the fist move, but the legs also moved. Youxing took the initiative to meet Tang San's speed boost, making this punch both fast and ruthless!
Having already become familiar with Youxing's power, Tang San was naturally not intimidated by his might.
He manipulated the Blue Silver Grass with one hand, making it twist and turn in mid-air, avoiding a direct collision with Yusei's fist, and instead wrapping it around his arm.
Tang San's eyes flashed with a sharp light: "Let your own power bind you, Youxing! First Soul Skill, Entanglement!"
With the enhancement of the soul skill, the binding force of the Blue Silver Grass increases significantly, which means that unless Youxing is possessed by a martial soul, he cannot easily break free from the binding force of the Blue Silver Grass!
With Tang San's skillful technique, he only needed to use his soul power to enhance the toughness of the Blue Silver Grass, without paying too much attention to its binding force, to turn Youxing's fist force back and pull the Blue Silver Grass, thus firmly gripping Youxing's arm!
Seeing Tang San's actions, You Xing nodded slightly. As expected of the de facto number one genius of the Tang Sect, such skill in applying force was indeed beyond the reach of a researcher specializing in theory and research.
The ability to control one's soul power can be developed through research and daily training without needing to engage in combat or sparring. However, things that are more related to martial arts and techniques require real combat experience, so he never forces himself to develop this ability.
Anyway... this kind of thing doesn't touch on the essence of the power in this world, so it's enough to use it.
Youxing simply stopped struggling against the Blue Silver Grass. Seeing that the Blue Silver Grass had absorbed and neutralized almost all the force of his fist, he simply withdrew his strength and then suddenly pulled the Blue Silver Grass toward himself.
Yusei isn't good at this technique, but his fighting spirit is absolutely top-notch.
Anyone else could make the same choice if they calmed down, but it would be difficult to do it with the decisiveness and efficiency of Yusei.
Tang San was also surprised by You Xing's quick judgment. Feeling his body being pulled by a strong force, he instantly separated the part of Blue Silver Grass that had grown out.
Without Tang San's soul power support, the values of these Blue Silver Grasses naturally dropped significantly, losing their previous resilience. You Xing casually tugged at them, and they fell to the ground.
While Youxing was dealing with the Blue Silver Grass vines in his hands, Tang San neither approached further nor retreated further.
However, it was accumulating power and released more than ten lush and well-developed Blue Silver Grass vines in one go.
Looking at the overwhelming Blue Silver Grass, and seeing Tang San was willing to do such "useless work" at the cost of a lot of soul power, Youxing instantly understood Tang San's thoughts.
"Right now, right here."
Youxing pretended not to notice Tang San's thoughts and maintained the normal response of a Soul Master. He chose to dodge, either by avoiding the Blue Silver Grass or by using his power to clear a path.
call out!call out!call out!
Just as Yusei took a big step to escape the Blue Silver Grass area, and his stride became too slow, Tang San, using the Ghost Shadow Step, launched a triple burst of hidden arrows from Yusei's blind spot, aiming for Yusei's back!
All the previous entanglements were just to confuse the public. Even the large amount of Blue Silver Grass produced by consuming a lot of soul power was still just a smokescreen. Everything was to cover up this final, decisive hidden weapon attack!
However, it was as if Youxing had eyes in the back of his head. In an instant, he completed the Martial Soul Possession and put on the holy dragon scale armor with blue and white as the main colors. At the same time, he suddenly turned around and reached out to grab it!
"What!?"
Tang San's pupils contracted as he stared in astonishment at the three hidden arrows held between You Xing's fingers, and he couldn't help but gasp in surprise!
