Chapter 205: Act First and Report Later

What Tang Hao did not know was that Yu Xiaogang had already used Tang San to verify several of his theories.

Many of these theories carried significant risks during implementation, all of which were resolved thanks to Tang San's personal abilities.

If Tang San were not a transmigrator, he likely would have died long ago during his cultivation.

For a long time, Yu Xiaogang's theories had been proven one by one, causing Tang San to instinctively choose to trust him.

"Dad, Teacher's judgment is never wrong; I am willing to try."

"That is pure nonsense!" Tang Hao said angrily, "Do you know that once the cultivation fails, it will completely cost you your life?"

"You are my son, Tang Hao, and I will not allow you to take risks for no reason."

Noticing Tang San's expression, Yu Xiaogang let out a long sigh, "Xiao San, you go back first; I have some things to discuss with His Excellency Clear Sky in private."

Tang San still wanted to insist, but was "driven" out of the room by Yu Xiaogang.

How could Tang Hao not know of Yu Xiaogang's situation?

Back when he entrusted Tang San to him, he had already investigated everything clearly.

With Yu Xiaogang leaving him alone, he had already guessed the gist of it.

Simply, Tang Hao asked straight to the point: "Master, are you thinking of going to the Spirit Hall to find Bibi Dong?"

In the past, the Clear Sky Sect possessed the premier intelligence capabilities on the continent; the fact that Bibi Dong possessed Twin Martial Souls was no secret in his eyes.

As for the current Bibi Dong, being able to secure the position of Pope as an outsider, her Twin Martial Souls must have been cultivated successfully; otherwise, those old fellows in the Consecration Hall would not have easily let her come out to "lose face."

Furthermore, Qian Xunji's encirclement and suppression of them as a couple back then was highly likely to obtain A Yin's Ten-Thousand Year Soul Ring and soul bone, to pave the way for Bibi Dong's Twin Martial Souls cultivation.

Combining the above circumstances, Tang Hao could roughly guess that a Ten-Thousand Year Soul Ring and soul bone could greatly improve a Spirit Master's physical constitution, which was highly likely to offset the conflict between the two soul powers in the body.

Xiao Wu was a Transformed Soul Beast of one hundred thousand years; the worst-case scenario would be letting her sacrifice herself for Tang San.

But there was a good emotional bond between the two of them, and Tang Hao was not yet crazy enough to take a knife to his future daughter-in-law.

Moreover, Tang San possessing a Ten-Thousand Year Soul Ring was in itself unusual, and would only attract even more frantic retaliation from the Spirit Hall.

Once the news that a Ten-Thousand Year Soul Beast would definitely drop a Ten-Thousand Year soul bone leaked, the major powers on the continent would certainly not miss out; even experts who had already gone into seclusion would come out to contend for it.

Not to mention the distant ones, just the Sword and Bone Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would be enough to give their father and son a hard time.

Yu Xiaogang did not hide his intentions and explained: "His Excellency Clear Sky, I intend to make a trip to the Spirit Hall to try and extract the method of cultivating Twin Martial Souls from Bibi Dong's mouth."

"This time, I acted in the name of a Spirit Hall Elder, and so far I have not received any condemnation from Bibi Dong; I imagine she has already tacitly accepted my status. If she still harbors old feelings in her heart, she will certainly satisfy my request."

"I hope that before that, you will not let Xiao San act recklessly and first add two Soul Rings to his martial soul. It will not be too late to add subsequent Soul Rings for him after I return with confirmed news."

Indeed, this was the best method at present.

But Tang Hao had always been cautious and unwilling to take risks easily, "Master, Bibi Dong not causing you trouble might mean she is secretly investigating Xiao San's situation."

"If you take the initiative to go to the Spirit Hall, wouldn't that be walking into the tiger's den? If Xiao San's identity is exposed along with it, that would be a big problem."

"There is no rush for this matter; let me consider it carefully. In these few days, you should also think about the rhetoric for meeting Bibi Dong to ensure there are no loopholes. Also, it is best if you give Liu Erlong a heads-up in advance."

Regarding this, Yu Xiaogang rarely retorted: "His Excellency Clear Sky, do not mention this to Erlong for the time being. When women face emotional issues, there is no telling what kind of trouble they might stir up."

"To be safe, let's 'act first and report later' with her."

Tang Hao could not be bothered to care about Yu Xiaogang's private affairs.

The next morning.

Led by Tang Hao, Tang San accompanied him to the Sunset Forest.

The Seven Treasure Team also ushered in a short vacation.

In the morning, just as Wu Qi was preparing to go out, he saw Dugu Bo take the initiative to come to his door.

He did not beat around the bush and said bluntly: "Little guy, the old man knows you want to perform the feat of defeating six, or even seven, on the stage of the qualifying tournament."

Wu Qi did not deny it.

Completing a one-on-seven was not only an unprecedented tournament record, but also an affirmation of his own strength.

Of course, wanting to do a one-on-seven also depended on the target.

For academies with no grievances between them, pinning the other party to a pillar of shame—was that not offending people for no reason?

Only by making many friends would it be more convenient to act in the future. Making enemies everywhere was truly a path to self-destruction.

Therefore, Wu Qi chose the Shrek Team as his target, but with his strength, how could it be easy to defeat Shrek Academy one-on-seven?

Not to mention, once Tang San cultivated the Clear Sky Hammer martial soul, his strength could not be underestimated.

Dugu Bo spoke up at this moment, likely having a suitable cultivation method.

"Old man, besides cheating, what other ideas do you have?"

There was really no need to engage in such petty tricks on the stage of the Spirit Master Tournament. And once discovered, it would also damage one's own reputation.

Dugu Bo nodded, and before stating the specific situation, he first administered a preventative measure, "Little guy, can you accept some things that hover on the edge of the law?"

"Of course, I am not really asking you to commit a crime."

Young people often have a heart full of passion, and even a hatred for evil; if it is not made clear beforehand, it would be bad to cause unnecessary trouble.

Wu Qi became interested.

He knew well that this world was not black and white, and people or things that walked on the edge of the law were not unacceptable.

Seeing that he was mentally prepared, Dugu Bo beckoned, signaling him to follow behind.

The two walked into the streets of Tiandou City, and at a corner, turned into a dark alley.

Such places were often filled with crime and violence.

Regarding the underground world, it was not that the Heaven Dou Imperial Family did not want to manage it, but that they simply could not.

On the contrary, concentrating the underground world and criminals together could actually greatly improve the security environment within the city.

Dugu Bo took a mask out of his Soul Guidance Device and handed it to Wu Qi, "You and the Seven Treasure Team have long been famous; try not to expose your identity to avoid unnecessary trouble."

Putting on the mask, Wu Qi was surprised to find that his voice had become low and hoarse; unless someone was extremely familiar with his aura, it would be very difficult to see through the clues.

Dugu Bo lightly patted his shoulder, and the two walked into the alley.

As he walked, Dugu Bo said, "Before Tiandou City was built, there was an iron mine on this plot of land."

"Later, when constructing the city, in order to save manpower and material resources, this area was partitioned off separately."

One must know, filling in a mine pit in this era without heavy machinery would consume countless manpower and material resources, so it is no wonder the Heaven Dou Imperial Family would make such a choice.
