*****

In the original story, Yu Tianheng should only be around level thirty-nine at this time, but unexpectedly, he has already become a Soul Saint.

Tang San speculated that this was probably due to him providing the correct method for using whale gum.

Whale gum mainly functions to enhance physical attributes, and while it does have a slight effect on increasing soul power, it's negligible.

However, with a stronger body, the absorption rate of natural energy is faster, and naturally, the speed of cultivating soul power will also increase. Therefore, it's not surprising that Yu Tianheng reached the rank of Soul Saint.

However, Tang San could already imagine that after two years, during the Elite Soul Master Academy Grand Competition across the entire continent, Soul Kings would no longer be rare. Even the three from the Martial Soul Hall would probably have strength approaching that of Soul Emperors, or perhaps even reaching Soul Emperor level.

But only with such challenges can growth occur!

Swan Lake.

This is an artificial lake within the Tian Dou Royal Academy, with clear water and many noble students riding swan-shaped boats, boating on the lake.

On the lakeside, there is an open space where many diligent students are practicing, exercising, or sparring with each other, forming a stark contrast to the students boating on the lake.

"Captain!" A black-haired youth saw Huo Wu and immediately approached with a group of people, a hint of a smile on his face.

"Judging by the soul power fluctuations just now, you're about to reach level forty-two, right?" Huo Wu looked the young man up and down, teasing, "Not bad, you're catching up to me."

"I'm no match for you, Captain." The young man laughed and then turned to look at the boy and two girls beside Huo Wu, asking curiously, "Are these three members of your family, or new friends you've made? Or are they new students at the academy? It shouldn't be the time for enrollment yet, right?"

"Why so many questions?" Huo Wu waved her hand impatiently, "These three are my friends and also new students at the academy. I went to the Academic Committee and pulled some strings for them."

"But don't underestimate them because of that."

With that, Huo Wu pointed at Tang San and Xiao Wu. "They're both only twelve years old, born commoners, but their strength has already reached the level of Soul Saint."

"This—"

Then, Huo Wu moved her finger to Guang Ling, "At eleven, She's already a level thirty-three Soul Elder."

"Eleven-year-old Soul Elder! Twelve-year-old Soul Sage!" Yu Tianheng was astonished, and the members beside him were also incredulous, finding it hard to believe.

"Captain, are you joking?"

"A twelve-year-old Soul Sage, how is that possible?"

"We're all seventeen or eighteen, and we're only Soul Masters."

"Cough!" Huo Wu coughed twice and shouted, "Quiet! I'm not joking with you. They will be official members of our Tian Dou Royal Academy Combat Team in the future."

A Soul Master team usually consists of seven people, but among the seven main members, there also need to be substitutes. The ideal situation is for each member to have a substitute.

Therefore, a truly complete Spirit Master team needs at least fourteen people.

Currently, the first team of the Tian Dou Royal Academy Combat Team does not have enough substitutes.

However, with Tang San and others' talents, they naturally wouldn't be substitutes, and among Yu Tianheng and the others, no one wanted to be a substitute either.

Hence, Yu Tianheng and the others looked a bit unfriendly towards Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Guang Ling.

"What's with those looks?" Huo Wu chuckled lightly, "You all look exactly like when I defeated you before. Also, there isn't much difference between substitutes and official team members. They'll all shine in the competition."

"Captain is right." Yu Tianheng was the first to agree, suddenly realizing, "Since Master Tang San's theory was published, last year's Soul Master Competition not only introduced new types of venues, but also diversified the cooperation between Soul Masters. The reason the previous Tian Dou Royal Team made it to the finals was because they researched the roles and combinations of different Soul Masters."

"On behalf of others, welcome to join us."

"What are your names?"

Tang San smiled faintly, "Hello, Vice Captain, I'm Tang San."

"Tang San?" Yu Tianheng was taken aback, smiling, "That name isn't good. It belongs to a Grandmaster of Martial Souls, also my idol. My uncle is also a theoretical master... but forget it, I suggest you change your name or title. Many Soul Masters from small families in Tian Dou City admire Grandmaster Tang San. Carrying such a name, others might beat you up."

Tang San, though not widely known, is still familiar enough. As long as it's a big city where Soul Masters gather, the locals have heard of him.

Therefore, when this name appears, it can indeed cause some commotion.

However, Tang San didn't mind.

"I'm pretty good at taking a beating."

Listening to Tang San's seemingly serious words, Yu Tianheng was speechless, feeling that the upright youth in front of him seemed to have a hint of humor in some aspects.

"Pfft!" Huo Wu covered her mouth. "Alright, now that you've all met each other, let's go meet our team leader."

Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.

"Huo Wu, who are you bringing to see me?"

The voice preceded the person.

From afar, a handsome man walked slowly towards them, smiling as he appraised Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Guang Ling, with a hint of amusement on his face.

This man was Qin Ming, the youngest Soul Emperor in the history of the continent, with the Martial Soul of the Blazing Wolf.

When Huo Wu joined the Tian Dou Royal Academy Combat Team, Qin Ming learned that she wanted to bring three people into the team.

He asked who these three people were and what their Martial Souls were.

Huo Wu didn't say, only stating it was a "secret."

Now, these three people were truly standing in front of him, making it a bit difficult for him to read them.

Although the three of them had good development and were already at the height of adults in terms of height, Qin Ming could tell from their faces that they were not very old, probably only eleven or twelve years old. Students of this age generally enter intermediate Soul Master academies for study, not advanced ones like the Tian Dou Royal Academy.

But now, they were here at the Tian Dou Royal Academy.

Obviously, these people were all geniuses, and they had likely already reached level twenty-five or above.

"Teacher Qin Ming, let me introduce them. These three are my friends, Tang San, Xiao Wu, and Guang Ling. They are all geniuses among geniuses. The worst among them is already a Soul Elder." Huo Wu introduced them again, surprising Qin Ming.

The worst of them is already a Soul Elder?

Could it be that among these three, there's a Soul Master at the rank of Soul Ancestor?

Eleven or twelve-year-old Soul Ancestor?

Wait a minute.

Tang San!

With a sharp gaze, Qin Ming fixed his eyes on the only boy among the three and asked, "Are you Tang San?"

Tang San nodded. "My name is Tang San."

Qin Ming was slightly stunned. Same name, same surname? No! A Soul Master who can join the Tian Dou Royal Academy and has talent and works hard in cultivation isn't one of those noble children. It's impossible not to recognize what he's asking.

So, he didn't deny being that Grandmaster.
