Yu Xiaogang are Both Stunned. Tang San resolutely raised his left hand, then concentrated his soul power in his palm.
In an instant, black light surged out.
Sensing this powerful aura, Yu Xiaogang's expression changed slightly.
In that short moment, his brain raced, and he couldn't help but mutter to himself,
"Tang San, Tang San, surnamed Tang."
Yu Xiaogang's pupils suddenly contracted twice. Could it be...?
Just then, a hammer handle condensed from Tang San's palm.
Seeing this, Yu Xiaogang suddenly stood up from his seat, his eyes revealing extreme excitement.
He stared intently at the jet-black hammer handle.
Such a terrifying aura, it was definitely the Clear Sky Hammer, the number one weapon spirit in Douluo Continent!
Yu Xiaogang couldn't suppress his laughter.
He stared intently at Tang San's left hand.
The next second, a pointed, round-bottomed, layered, jet-black bamboo shoot-shaped object appeared where the hammerhead should have been.
Yu Xiaogang staggered, nearly knocking over the table.
What the hell was this?
The aura was clearly that of a top-tier martial soul like the Clear Sky Hammer.
But the form was completely different.
A Clear Sky Bamboo Shoot?
[Ding! Successful modification of the adventure!]
[Congratulations to the host for obtaining: System Essence * 500!]
At the same time, Ye Xuan, who had just finished eating and walked out of the cafeteria, received a system reply in his mind.
Thinking about the Clear Sky Hammer turning into a bamboo shoot shape, it was indeed laughable.
It was just too abstract.
At this moment, Tang San in Yu Xiaogang's room was completely stunned.
He was equally dumbfounded.
Looking at the Clear Sky Hammer in his hand, he tried hard to recall what it looked like before.
The last time he condensed it, it was slapped away by Tang Hao in less than two seconds.
As a result, he hadn't even seen it clearly.
For a moment, he even doubted whether he had misremembered for so long.
But he clearly remembered a hammer in his mind.
There couldn't possibly be such an abstract hammer, could there?
Tang San looked at the bewildered Yu Xiaogang with some surprise.
"Godfather, my spirit didn't seem to be like this before."
Yu Xiaogang came to his senses.
"What did it originally look like?"
Tang San tried hard to recall.
"At least it was a normal hammer shape, not like this, one end bigger than the other."
"And my father also said that my spirit is a hammer, but it can't be used lightly."
The excited light in Yu Xiaogang's eyes reappeared.
"What does your father do?"
"The village blacksmith."
"Blacksmith?"
Yu Xiaogang's eyes flashed.
"Blacksmith, hammer..."
Could it be a spirit mutation?
But he had studied the theory for so long and had never heard of a spirit mutating after awakening.
Right now, he could only try to find some relevant information to study further.
Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San solemnly.
"Alright, put your spirit away."
"Remember, don't easily reveal your spirit to others."
Although the Clear Sky Hammer had changed its shape, its aura remained the same.
Anyone who had seen the Clear Sky Hammer would definitely be able to see the connection between the two.
"Furthermore, never attach a spirit ring to this spirit without my permission."
His father and godfather spoke almost identically.
This increased Tang San's trust in his newly recognized godfather, and he nodded.
"I remember, godfather."
Yu Xiaogang calmed himself, then walked around the table to Tang San's side and gently patted the latter's shoulder.
"The most important thing now is to ensure your spirit can continue cultivating."
"Tomorrow morning, you'll leave the academy with me. I'll take you to find a suitable spirit ring."
Tang San's eyes lit up instantly, his joy beyond words.
After absorbing a spirit ring, he would be a true spirit master.
"Yes, godfather!"
He agreed readily.
At the same time, the word "godfather" sounded more genuine than before.
Just as Tang San was grinning from ear to ear, Yu Xiaogang's words brought him back to his senses:
"By the way, remember to invite Ye Xian from your village along."
"Huh?"
Tang San was taken aback, then immediately nodded.
"Good godfather!"
Although he was a little confused, Tang San obviously didn't dare to go against Yu Xiaogang's wishes.
He could understand some of it.
His godfather wanted to take Ye Xian as his disciple.
Was he really inferior to him?
Since he couldn't figure it out, he simply stopped thinking about it.
Tang San guessed correctly; Yu Xiaogang wanted to use this opportunity to showcase his strength
and attract Ye Xian to become his disciple.
After returning to the dormitory, he told Ye Xian about Yu Xiaogang's intention.
The latter readily agreed.
This made Tang San a little puzzled.
He refused to become his godfather's disciple,
but in the end, he received almost the same treatment as him.
Wasn't he a godfather for nothing?
Early the next morning, Ye Xian and Tang San left the dormitory together.
The two of them headed straight for the academy gate.
From a great distance, Ye Xian spotted Yu Xiaogang.
Last night, Tang San had suddenly told him that Yu Xiaogang was taking him hunting for the first spirit ring
and wanted him to come along.
Such a good opportunity, Ye Xian naturally wouldn't refuse.
He immediately agreed.
"Godfather, we're here."
Upon seeing Yu Xiaogang, Tang San immediately bowed deeply.
Ye Xian was stunned; Tang San's address of "godfather" almost made him lose his composure.
But he still managed a forced smile and nodded symbolically in greeting,
"Master."
"Yes, let's go."
Yu Xiaogang replied in a perfunctory manner.
The three then headed out of the academy.
"Godfather, where are we going to find spirit beasts?"
Tang San asked curiously.
Yu Xiaogang's decision was very hasty, leaving him almost unprepared. He
didn't even know where they were going.
"We're going to the Soul Hunting Forest, four hundred miles northeast of Notting City. That's where spirit beasts are kept."
Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San with a smile.
He glanced at Ye Xuan beside him out of the corner of his eye, wanting to see if the latter would react.
Then he was disappointed; Ye Xuan remained unchanged.
Along the way, Tang San and Yu Xiaogang chatted incessantly.
Yu Xiaogang pulled out his proud, invincible theory and explained it to Tang San.
The latter was quite interested.
Ye Xuan, on the other hand, walked to the side,
seemingly uninterested in Yu Xiaogang's theories.
The expected apprenticeship ceremony hadn't occurred at all.
Not even the slightest sign of it happened.
Yu Xiaogang frowned slightly. Could he have misjudged?
He quickly dismissed this thought.
The reason Ye Xuan's reaction wasn't strong was simply that he wasn't attractive enough to him.
He didn't believe Ye Xuan could remain so calm after seeing Tang San absorb his first spirit ring.
A child is still a child; his thinking is somewhat one-sided.
He'd probably have to kneel down and beg him to hunt spirit beasts for him later.
Thinking of this, Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but let out a stiff smile.
He'd just been indulging in his own fantasies.
