Chapter 6: Suffering with success

Martial spirit fusion techniques are not one plus one equals two, even two identical martial spirits may not be able to possess a martial spirit fusion technique, because it requires complementarity and perfect matching, when a martial spirit fusion technique is created, that kind of power reflects not just the level of the two spirit masters, but a transcendent existence!

The Grandmaster explained the Martial Spirit Fusion Technique, which left Tang San incomparably shocked, Xiao Jiu was simply a demon!

The Grandmaster continued, "Little San, although you are also a twin-born martial spirit, the probability of your two martial spirits being able to fuse is basically zero! This is because there are fewer martial spirits that can fuse in this world, and even fewer that are twin martial spirits!"

"But Little Jiu's Spirit Ring Martial Spirit is capable of fusing with any martial spirit! So, his biggest card is actually his own fusion of two martial spirits."

"Two martial spirits, eighteen spirit rings, fused together perfectly, the power that can be brought about, just think how terrifying that existence would be!"

After the Grandmaster finished speaking, he was more shocked by the incredible scene in his own mind.

Tang Jiu, on the other hand, sucked in a breath of cold air, the Grandmaster was worthy of being a Grandmaster, he hadn't thought about this matter of martial spirit fusion, but it was definitely feasible, the spirit ring could fuse with any martial spirit, there was no questioning this at all!

"Little Jiu, no matter if you will be my student or not, I have to warn you, martial spirit fusion techniques should never be used indiscriminately! Because when two spirit masters use the martial spirit fusion technique, they superimpose the power of two people together, but it is two people who will bear the power!

And if you fuse two martial spirits and use the martial spirit fusion technique, then you alone will have to bear all the energy attached to the two martial spirits, and although it will give you immense power, it will also cause immense damage to your body!"

The Grandmaster solemnly cautioned.

"I am willing to worship you as my master!" Only at this moment did Tang Jiu realise that even though he had read the Douluo Continent, he would still be crushed by the Grandmaster in terms of his knowledge of martial spirits and that if he wanted to gain great power and become the strongest spirit master, he would have to have the Grandmaster's guidance!

Tang San, too, bowed to the master in obeisance.

"Good, good! I never thought I'd receive two gems as disciples in one go!"

"Little Jiu, can you help the teacher with one thing?" The Grandmaster, however, looked extraordinarily excited at this moment!

"Teacher, you say!" Tang Jiu was uncertain but still nodded his head.

"My spirit power is stuck at level 29, and I can't make an inch of progress! Originally, I thought I would never be able to break through to level 30 and become a Spirit Elder in this life, but after seeing your Spirit Ring Martial Spirit, I know that one of my wishes in this life is about to come true, and only you can help me!"

"Help you breakthrough to level 30? How is that possible? My spirit ring martial spirit restrict other party's spirit ring! How can I help you?" Tang Jiu felt unable to follow this Grandmaster's train of thought and was at a loss, then saw that Tang San was also confused.

The Grandmaster excitedly pounded on the table and, after organizing his thoughts, excitedly said, "Restricting spirit rings!"

"I'm level 29 and have two spirit rings, if you restrict one of my spirit rings, I'll only have one spirit ring left, so wouldn't I be able to absorb another spirit ring!"

"You know, spirit rings have energy, after absorbing a spirit ring successfully, my spirit power will definitely increase, won't I easily breakthrough to level 30 and have a third spirit ring straight away!"

Tang Jiu and Tang San were directly stunned, that's what a master is!

The first time he came into contact with a spirit ring martial spirit, and utilised it to the extreme, worthy of being a genius with an unbeatable theory!

The Grandmaster deduced his thoughts and found that it was so easy to achieve, his entire being was overflowing with happiness.

The aura of an ascetic on his body was instantly washed away, obviously, breaking through to level 30 was an obsession in his heart!

"Teacher, as long as you think it's okay! When the time comes, you can just tell me." Tang Jiu was originally thinking that after the master had eaten the extremely high-quality immortal herbs, he seemed to have broken through level 40, but for the master, it would be a painful ordeal for him to have to wait seven or eight more years in agony.

Moreover, after the breakthrough, the effect of eating immortal herbs again might be even better!

Therefore, Tang Jiu didn't insist any further, but asked the Grandmaster, "Teacher, what is the direction of my martial spirit development then?"

"For your strength-based martial spirit, I suggest you go for an extremely domineering explosive flow, with spirit techniques that increase strength tremendously in a short period of time!"

"This is because, your spirit ring martial spirit is one that can restrict your opponent's abilities, but the restriction must have a time limit, so you need to be highly explosive and try your best to kill with a single blow!"

After the Master finished speaking, he looked at Tang Jiu and said, "If you were a normal twin martial spirit, I would advise you to major in one martial spirit and then attach a spirit ring to the other one, but you are too special, so I'll give you another option!

If you cultivate two spirit rings at the same time, you will definitely be incredibly powerful in the early stages, crushing your peers and fighting beyond your rank is not difficult, but when you reach the rank of Douluo, there is a chance that your battle power will not reach its theoretical limit!

But if you only cultivate one martial spirit, you will only be invincible in the same class in the early stage, and it will be difficult to fight beyond the class! But you'll reach your theoretical maximum battle power when you become Titled Douluo!

It's up to you to decide which one you want to choose!"

Tang Jiu didn't even think about it and immediately said, "I want to cultivate two martial spirits at the same time!"

It wasn't his style to develop indecently and hold back the late stages, of course, he wanted to crush them all the time!

After instructing Tang Jiu, the master looked at Tang San and said, "Let me see your second martial spirit! Do you mind?"

"Of course I don't mind!"

In the Tang Sect's general guidelines, a teacher for a day, father for life! A master was the most trustworthy person, just like a parent!

Immediately, Tang San's pushed his spirit power and a light blue light blossomed as a small hammer emerged on his left hand!

Master's pupils suddenly shrank, he had long thought that Tang San's second martial spirit would be extremely unbothering but he didn't expect it to be the Clear Sky Hammer!

"Your surname is Tang... I should have thought of that."

The Grand Master suppressed the excitement in his heart, then said, "This martial spirit of yours must not be seen by anyone, let alone have a spirit ring attached to it!"

The Master's words surprised Tang San, "My father said the same thing, Master, why is that?"

The Grandmaster was actually more curious, "Little San, what does your father do?"

"My father is a blacksmith."

At these words, the Master's mind was clear: it seemed that Junior did not know his father's true identity, so it was not possible to tell him the detailed reason now.

The master said, "It's not time to tell you yet, you just need to know that your father and I are asking this of you for your own good."

Tang San nodded his head and asked no more questions.

"Alright, I'll take you all for registration. After the opening ceremony tomorrow, I'll take you both to find suitable spirit rings. Tonight, I'll start thinking about what spirit ring is more suitable for you guys, and also what spirit ring is more suitable for me!" The Master clenched his fist.

Tang San was a little excited in his heart, he would soon be able to obtain a spirit ring, and maybe Heavenly Mysterious Skill would also break through as he stepped into Spirit Master, so he would definitely catch up with Xiao Jiu!

After the Grand Master finished speaking, he took the two of them to the teaching office to register, normally he rarely went there because people were too fond of chewing their tongues, but today he was in a much better mood as he had accepted two good disciples.

Tang Jiu left the dried meat in the master's office, then followed the master to the teaching office with the hammer in his hand.

The teaching office was on the ground floor of the main teaching building, and the person who was specifically responsible for receiving the new students was Director Su, who was in his sixties, and there were two men talking with him, who looked no older than thirty years old.

The master placed the certificate on the table and said to Director Su, "This is the work-study student sent from Holy Spirit Village this year, and there is another student who has come to register at his own expense, register them."

Director Su said with a big smile on his face, "Master, what brings you here, a rare guest! Would you like to sit for a while longer?"

The master shook his head no and turned around, "Xiao Jiu, Xiao San, you guys register first, I'll go first and prepare some things."

"Okay, teacher!"

Tang Jiu knew that at this moment, the Grandmaster should be full of choosing spirit beasts, looking for a suitable hundred-year spirit ring for San, as well as choosing a thousand-year spirit ring for the Grandmaster himself.

As soon as the Grandmaster turned around, Director Su laughed and said, "You call the Grandmaster teacher? He's not a teacher of the academy."

Tang Jiu nodded, "I know, we've already paid our respects to the teacher."

Director Su and the two men were slightly stunned and had the kind of sneer on their faces that they really couldn't help.

Director Su reminded the two, "Any spirit master can only acknowledge one master, otherwise it will be forbidden by the world, do you want to think about it?"

Tang Jiu said seriously, "No one is qualified to be my teacher except master."

The two men at the side could not help but laugh loudly, "It seems that you have also been fooled by the name of the master! I tell you, it's all a lie!"

"Ignorant!" Tang Jiu hummed.

The two men's faces instantly turned unkind, Director Su hurriedly coughed, Tang Jiu had come in on a teaching fee, 60 gold spirit coins, he was counting them!

This kind of prickly student, there would be opportunities to clean up later.

"What a waste of innate full spirit power talent!"

"Actually, it's not a waste of time, a Blue Silver Grass and an egg, both are waste martial spirits! Having a waste martial spirit and then finding a waste teacher, a perfect match!"

The two men sang in unison and started taunting Grandmaster and Tang Jiu.

Director Su was signing the paperwork and smiled as he reminded, "Grandmaster is a friend of the dean, you must not judge. Although Grandmaster's theories have never been proven, no one can prove them wrong either, in terms of martial spirit theories, Grandmaster is 'invincible'!"

The two men had no scruples at all, they were already used to mocking the Grandmaster in derision.

"It's not just some ten core competencies of the martial spirit, it's ridiculous, it's never been verified to be true! If you follow such a teacher, you can only be a loser."

The Grandmaster had just walked to the window at this moment, hearing them mocking himself in such a way, his body trembled with anger, he had a difficult life, he could accept others sarcasm, but he could not let the people around him be implicated by himself!

The master suddenly turned around and pushed open the door, angrily saying, "Although I am not strong, my disciples will definitely be the strongest spirit masters in the continent in the future!"

"Haha, funny isn't it!" The two men laughed even more at his words.

Director Su coughed and reminded, "You two should stop, the Grandmaster is a big and famous figure in the Martial Spirit World!"

One of the two men, feeling that mocking in front of the Grandmaster was a bit too much, shut up, but the other arrogant man did not restrain himself in the slightest, he was not afraid, his brother was a retainer of the City Lord.

When he saw that the master, who had been holding back his words, had dared to look at him angrily, he sniggered, "Director, what a famous big shot, I think he's a famous clown!"

"You! ~~"

The Master's face was unusually ugly, his fists clenched tightly, he really wanted to punch this bastard in the face, but he really couldn't beat his opponent.

"Haha, I was right!" The arrogant man laughed.

Snap!

Right at this moment, Tang Jiu jumped up and smacked him in the face with a loud slap, causing his head to deflect 90 degrees directly, then driving his body to spin and fly out, smashing heavily against the wall and falling with a miserable scream.

"How dare you! How dare you insult my teacher!" Tang Jiu disdainfully brushed his mouth, this slap was really good, he had wanted to beat him up for a long time!

"How can you attack a teacher?" Director Su's tone was quite unkind as he stood up and angrily rebuked.

"He insulted my teacher, can't I, a disciple, step in and beat him up?" Tang Jiu snorted coldly.

"But, you're a student of the school and he's a teacher of the school! You are committing a crime." Director Su said angrily.

"That's right too!" Tang Jiu walked over to Director Su and took the tuition directly from his hand and put it in his pocket before saying, "Now, I wouldn't be a student of Notting Academy, so now it's okay to beat him up!"

Director Su froze at once! What kind of play was this?

"Kid, you dare to hit me, I'll fight you for your spirit today!" The arrogant man who just stood up had an ugly look on his face, to be hit in the face by a kid, how could he stand it!

He was in no hurry to go up and beat up Tang Jiu, instead, he initiated a spirit fighting challenge, once the other party agreed to it, he was not responsible for life or death! This was the rule of the martial world.

"Spirit Fighting is still fighting! I'm not afraid of you!" Tang Jiu hummed.

The Master's face changed, "Little Jiu, spirit fighting means winning or losing, but it can also be divided into life and death! You are only six years old, the other party is almost thirty!"

"Teacher, you haven't seen my martial spirit yet, it's just time to show you today, how I'm going to clean up this trash!"

Tang Jiu carried his war hammer and took a step forward, facing the arrogant man directly.

"Today, I want you to die!"

The arrogant man didn't say anything, he directly opened his martial spirit, a white and a yellow spirit ring rose, his body began to become swollen, his fur flourished, and a wolf shadow emerged behind him.

"Zhang Feng, level twenty-seven Attack-Type, martial spirit Wild Wolf!"

The corner of Tang Jiu's mouth leaked out a touch of disdain, this Zhang Feng's Wild Wolf Martial Spirit was obviously not as high grade as Su Yuntao's Lone Wolf Martial Spirit, although his spirit power was higher, he was several years older than Su Yuntao, to sum it up, he was just more of a waste than Su Yuntao!

"Martial Spirit Possession!"

Tang Jiu opened his martial spirit, a black ant appeared behind him, and a dark yellow spirit ring emerged from his body.

"Tang Jiu, level nineteen attack-type spirit master, martial spirit bullet ant!"

"What? Six years old, level nineteen! And a yellow hundred-year spirit ring!" Director Su's eyes were waiting to come out, this was unheard of!

"Isn't your martial spirit an egg?" said a male teacher but a thought occurred to him, this Bullet Ant's martial spirit didn't seem to be a trash martial spirit!

So innate full spirit power, with a martial spirit like that, that was truly a genius among geniuses!

Zhang Feng was also shocked in his heart, and then his eyes became even grimmer, "Kid, you are indeed excessively talented, but, I have one more spirit ring than you, you can never beat me! Now, you and your teacher kneel down and apologise to me, I can just break your bones and leave you alive!"

Tang Jiu snorted, "You kneel down and apologise to my teacher now, I can spare your life! To kill you, it only takes a hammer!"
