Chapter 5: Popularizing Spirit Master knowledge to Tang San

In the blink of an eye, three years passed, and Jerry and Tang San were both almost six years old.】

In these three years, because of fishing, Tang San had become much stronger. Purple Demon Eye, Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, and Mysterious Jade Hand had all been cultivated to the limit of the first layer but couldn't break through. Thinking that he would soon be able to awaken his martial soul, Tang San felt impatient!】

Speaking of Jerry, it had been three years, and on the surface, his relationship with Tang San was very good.】

But Tang San just wouldn't teach him Mysterious Heaven Art, always finding excuses to prevaricate. Jerry also realized that Tang San wasn't so easy to trick.】

So he strengthened his own training. Although Tang San didn't teach Jerry Mysterious Heaven Art, he never refused when Jerry asked him to forge things.】

Jerry knew that Tang San had forged a sleeve arrow and hid it every day for fear of Jerry discovering it. Then Jerry asked Tang San to help forge a bow and arrow.】

Although the bow and arrow were large and not very convenient, Jerry had been practicing, but this bow and arrow were really too difficult. Within 10 meters, Jerry guaranteed he could hit it, but beyond 10 meters, it was all up to fate.】

Tang San saw Jerry practicing with the bow and arrow and mocked: "Jerry, your bow and arrow are not as accurate as what I throw!"】

"I..." Jerry had a thought of wanting to beat Tang San up.】

The bow and arrow were too difficult. Finally, Jerry barely managed to get Tang San to forge a strange-looking crossbow, because a normal crossbow didn't have a gun barrel. This one of Jerry's had a gun barrel, a sight at the head, and a notch at the tail. Looking from afar, it looked like a sniper rifle, and it fired arrows, with the power coming from a bow.】

However, with such a simple modification, it greatly improved Jerry's accuracy.】

Tang San saw it and asked: "What's the use of this?"】

"Hunting, it can even be used as a weapon."】

"Hunting is fine, but if it's for fighting people, the opponent would have run away long ago when they saw you take out such a big thing. Can you aim accurately?"】

"Get lost, I don't want to talk to you!"】

Tang San, you pissed me off. You don't teach me Mysterious Heaven Art, don't give me the sleeve arrow, and still mock me.】

Thinking that Xiao Wu and Tang San were together for so many years in the future and he didn't teach her either, and the people at Shrek Academy weren't taught either, Tang San's mind was very firm. In his previous life, he said he wouldn't pass it on when jumping off the cliff, and now that he had come to another world, he still wouldn't pass it on!】

Jerry had thought about making guns before, but gunpowder was a problem. The textbook said one sulfur, two nitrates, three charcoal. How to get sulfur? How to get nitrates? I didn't know at all!】

Jerry had also tried to sit and meditate, but his butt went numb, and he didn't feel anything!】

Treating Tang San sincerely for three years, and getting nothing, it was all in vain.】

Tang San later even guarded against him everywhere. Since it was like this, Tang San shouldn't blame me!】

Originally, I was hesitant about affecting the future plot, but now I have no scruples!】

Early the next morning, Jerry got up and ran to the place where Tang San practiced on the back mountain. Sure enough, Tang San had already arrived there. After Tang San finished practicing and saw Jerry, he suddenly felt a little guilty!】

"Jerry, you got up so early today. Are you here to exercise too?" Tang San said.】

"Yes, there are still three months until martial soul awakening, so I have to hurry up and exercise more. I hope I can have spirit power when awakening. I heard Grandfather Jack say that no one in our family has had spirit power for generations, so I have to work hard. Little San, you seem very interested in Spirit Masters. Do you want to be a Spirit Master in the future?" Jerry asked.】

"Yes, I heard that the status of Spirit Masters is very high, and I want to try it too. Do you know about the world of Spirit Masters?" Tang San asked. Sure enough, Tang San also wanted to trick some Spirit Master matters out of Jerry, which was exactly what Jerry wanted.】

"I do know some. Grandfather told me a lot when he had nothing to do."】

"They are all basic common sense. For example, Spirit Masters have ranks. After awakening the martial soul, if you have spirit power, you are a Spirit Scholar. When you cultivate to level ten and absorb the first spirit ring, you are a Spirit Master. After that, there are Great Spirit Master, Spirit Elder, Spirit Ancestor, Spirit King, Spirit Emperor, Spirit Sage, Spirit Douluo, and Title Douluo."】

"Title Douluo is already the strongest combat power in this world. I don't know what's above that. Every 10 levels, you can absorb a spirit ring to break through. Spirit rings have white ten-year spirit rings, yellow hundred-year spirit rings, purple thousand-year spirit rings, black ten-thousand-year spirit rings, and red hundred-thousand-year spirit rings."】

"Right, there is a Grandmaster in the Spirit Master world who published the Ten Core Theories of Martial Spirits, allowing us commoners to better understand martial souls."】

"Then this Grandmaster must be very great," Tang San said.】

"Great? He has nothing to do with greatness, and one could even say this Grandmaster is a thief."】

"This Grandmaster is called Yu Xiaogang, the son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family patriarch, with innate half-level spirit power. He could never cultivate past level 29 in his life."】

"So he went to the Spirit Hall, studied the Spirit Hall's materials, then organized them and published the Ten Core Theories of Martial Spirits."】

"He signed his own name, took other people's things, published them, and counted them as his own. Isn't this very hypocritical?"】

"But didn't he also benefit many commoner Spirit Masters?" Tang San asked.】

"That's because he is a piece of trash. He suffered discrimination from his own clan and couldn't take it, so he engaged in other crooked ways."】

"But the Ten Core Theories of Martial Spirits he summarized are incomplete, and one could even say they are wrong."】

"Originally, the cultivation methods of Spirit Masters were in the hands of imperial power, nobles, the Spirit Hall, and sects. All Spirit Masters who awakened martial souls had to join the Spirit Hall, join a sect, or join an empire to get systematic learning."】

"These materials were accumulated over hundreds or thousands of years. Yu Xiaogang spent a few years relying on the Spirit Hall's materials to organize them. Do you think it's possible for them to be perfect?"】

"If I gave you a hundred years, if you could organize complete cultivation materials, I would admire you!"】

"I'll forget it; I don't have that ability," Tang San said.】

"And you don't think about it. Martial soul materials were all experimented with by generations of people with their own lives. Would the Spirit Hall let Yu Xiaogang, this piece of trash, see the truly important materials? After all, he also has the identity of being the son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family patriarch!"】

"Besides the Spirit Hall, there are three other sects that are relatively powerful: the Clear Sky Sect, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Family, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."】

"The relationship between the three great sects and the Spirit Hall is not very good. Do you think the people in the Spirit Hall are stupid? Would they let the son of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon patriarch see all the materials? If it were you, would you?"】

"I definitely wouldn't. This is sect secret; I wouldn't leak it out," Tang San said firmly.】

"On the surface, others call him Grandmaster, but it's actually mocking him. Do you know why no one moved against him after he published the Ten Core Theories and disguisedly touched the interests of nobles and sects?"】

"Because for sects and nobles, his Ten Core Theories are a joke, but Yu Xiaogang doesn't know it himself and is addicted to the Ten Core Theories and can't extricate himself."】

"He himself cannot prove his theories, but he firmly believes in his theories. I heard that he has been looking for a talented disciple to prove his theories all these years, but unfortunately, he hasn't found one!"】
