Douluo Dalu 5: Rebirth Of Tang San

The southern room was large. Actually, even though it was technically called a “room,” it actually comprised three rooms. Each room had shelves filled with items, many of which were covered with protective cases. And even through the protective cases, it could be clearly felt that each item emitted a distinct aura, contributing to the dense spiritual energy in the room.

This was indeed a convenience store!

The owner of the voice that they had heard earlier now stood before them—it was none other than their physical training teacher, Mu Yunyu.

Mu Yunyu didn't even glance at Du Bai. Instead, her gaze sized up Tang San twice. "I've heard about your achievements. It seems I've been too conservative with your physical training. You'll need to step it up tomorrow."

Tang San's mouth twitched involuntarily, and he replied helplessly, "Alright, Teacher Yunyu."

Mu Yunyu said, "Take a look around. Our store has plenty of good items. Do you need me to introduce them to you? Each item has a description underneath, so you can check them out yourself."

Tang San quickly responded, "I'll take a look myself. There's no need to trouble you, Teacher Yunyu."

Although the items in this world were somewhat unfamiliar to him, the discernment of a God King was not to be taken lightly! Moreover, with descriptions available, he wouldn't miss any suitable items.

Just as Tang San was about to start looking, Du Bai, beside him, suddenly started limping, "Teacher Yunyu, I think I've pulled a muscle today. Can I take a rest tomorrow?"

Mu Yunyu responded indifferently, "Get lost. You don't have money to buy anything, don't be a nuisance here."

This scene made Tang San chuckle lightly. It seemed that Mu Yunyu knew Du Bai quite well.

He didn't say much. Instead, he carefully examined the items on the counter, looking for treasures that might aid his cultivation. After all, the items he could find in such an energy-rich environment had to be extraordinary.

Although Du Bai was driven away, he didn't leave. Instead, he quietly watched Tang San from a corner of the room as the latter was selecting items. He seemed to understand his role here; he was just a follower, and Tang San was the real protagonist.

Tang San's eyes scanned the items on the cabinet individually. His eyesight and judgment of items were extraordinary, not just because he was a God King but also because he had a deep understanding and perception of cultivation and various items owing to his past lives. He knew what he needed and which things were worth his attention.

This so-called convenience store was a place of hidden dragons and crouching tigers, where each item had its unique value and purpose. Tang San was very careful as he browsed, hoping to find a true diamond in the rough. After all, in this world full of mystery and adventure, even the most inconspicuous item could turn out to be something vital to reaching higher realms.

In the meantime, Du Bai was fussing around. "Teacher Yunyu, I am the academy’s mascot. You should be nicer to the mascot."

Mu Yunyu disdainfully said, "Oh please, your meager power of fortune can't affect me just yet. Wait until you break through to the sixth order. Well, not that you’ll ever get there in this lifetime."

Du Bai's mouth twitched, "Teacher Yunyu, that's not fair. Why can't I break through? I definitely can."

"Stop talking nonsense. Get out of here. Don't let me see you and get upset."

Du Bai helplessly said, "Alright, Teacher Yunyu, I'll leave first."

In this academy, sadly, he couldn't afford to provoke anyone!

Watching him leave, Mu Yunyu shook her head helplessly. In the academy, if one had to judge who had the greatest talent at the Demonic God Transformation, it was rather hard to determine. However, in terms of potential and rarity, the Celestial Fox Transformation was a clear first. After all, even on the scale of the entire demon race, the Celestial Fox Vision was one of the top existences. The Grand Priest of the Celestial Foxes was one of the figures with the greatest influence in the Ancestral Court.

Unfortunately, the bloodline power within Du Bai was still relatively thin. Perhaps it was just too complicated for humans to get any great achievements in this aspect. Therefore, his cultivation of the Celestial Fox Vision was really slow.

The academy actually provided him with more resources than anyone else, and correspondingly had the highest expectations of him. Du Bai barely had to complete tasks to receive the best resources from the academy. But even until now, he still hadn't broken through to the fourth order.

Of course, if he could break through to the fourth order, he would be at another level altogether. The things that a fourth-order Celestial Fox Vision could do were far beyond what the boy could accomplish now.

After Du Bai left, Mu Yunyu returned to the chair in the main room and sat down, flipping through a book in her hand. Tang San, on the other hand, simply ignored her and continued to check the items for sale at this convenience store.

He started from the room on the far left. Most of the items in this room were plants, and just as Mu Yunyu said, each had a simple annotation below, along with a price tag.

There were an incredible variety of spiritual herbs, each containing different types of energy and with different effects. As for the cost, it was naturally high. The more precious and suitable for general cultivation, the more expensive the spiritual medicine was.

Since arriving in this world, Tang San had never taken any spiritual medicine. However, in his past life, he had been known for his knowledge of spiritual medicines. After all, he had been an inner disciple of the Tang Sect, which was renowned for its study of medicine and poisons. Thanks to the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, he had been able to make excellent use of plenty of spiritual herbs.

However, the spiritual medicines in the Daemon Continent differed from whatever he had seen in his past lives, perhaps due to the presence of nymphs and demons in this world. But spiritual medicines were still spiritual medicines, and many of them had similar properties and effects. As Tang San browsed through them, he assessed and compared them in his mind. Just looking at the annotations of these herbs was greatly helpful to him, giving him a deeper understanding of the species in this plane.

During that time, Mu Yunyu looked at him three times, each time finding that Tang San was fully focused on reading the introductions of the items in the small shop.

A nine-year-old child being so calm and composed surprised her, making her nod in approval secretly.

When Du Bai first came here, his first question was about the most expensive item, and his second was about what could make him advance in rank immediately. He didn't get to ask his third question before Mu Yunyu kicked him out.

In contrast, Tang San asked nothing throughout his visit, instead going ahead and inspecting all three rooms by himself. It wasn't until the bell for dinner rang from outside that he was brought back to reality.

"Dinner's ready, I'm closing up. Do you want anything?" Mu Yunyu asked.

Tang San, slightly regretful, responded, "Teacher Yunyu, I haven't finished looking. Can I come back tomorrow?"

Mu Yunyu nodded and said, "Of course you can. The shop is always open. You can come and look anytime. As a newcomer, you can choose an item worth one aetherhorn coin for free."

The purchasing power of one aetherhorn coin was already astonishing outside, but few items here were valued below one aetherhorn coin.

"Okay, thank you, Teacher Yunyu. I'll have dinner now and come back to choose tomorrow," Tang San said, leaving contentedly.

He hadn't expected that his biggest gain today would be seeing this small shop, which significantly increased his understanding of the species of the Daemon Continent.

Dinner was still lavish, but obviously without demonic beast meat, as such a thing wasn't easily obtained. Tang San heard from Du Bai that even if a demonic beast was hunted, it was generally sold to Kali Academy. The academy would pay good money for it, and that was one of the essential sources of income for the academy town.

After dinner, Wu Bingji and Cheng Zicheng arrived as promised. When Wu Bingji saw that Tang San had also invited Cheng Zicheng, he was slightly surprised, but he just smiled at Cheng Zicheng without saying much.

Tang San poured each of them a glass of water, and they sat down in the living room.

Wu Bingji said, "Little Tang, I'm very interested in your wind blade compression and the way you control the flight of the wind blade. Is it purely controlled by spiritual power, or is a technique involved?"

Tang San replied, "The compression of the wind blade is a combination of spiritual power and my own bloodline power. As for the method of launching the wind blade, that one relies more on technique, supplemented by some control of spiritual power."

"Mainly based on technique?" Cheng Zicheng looked at him in surprise. Everyone thought Tang San's spiritual power was extremely high, which is why he could precisely control the wind blade, so it was unexpected for him to say that it was actually a specific technique that allowed him to do that.

Tang San nodded and said, "It's indeed mostly based on a technique, actually something I developed."

His words were somewhat ambiguous, but it wasn't wrong to say he had developed it himself.

The Hidden Weapon Hundred Separations art of the Tang Sect was indeed exquisitely skillful, but the original art was far from the level Tang San had achieved in his previous life. After all, back in the old Tang Sect, he had enjoyed no supernatural abilities or control over spiritual power.

By contrast, in his next life in the Douluo Continent, he combined the Tang Sect's hidden weapon techniques with actual spiritual power, greatly enhancing the power and possibilities of hidden weapons and the corresponding techniques. This was not something that could be achieved overnight; it was not only an important inheritance from his first life, but also the fruit of many years of labor on his own part.
