Chapter 16 - Copying Spirit Abilities, Doing the Opposite

A purple light suddenly erupted from Tang San's eyes.

He raised his hand and made a grasping motion.

Over a dozen deep blue strands of Blue Silver Grass instantly sprouted beneath Yang Yuan's feet, coiling toward him.

Clearly, the pebbles Tang San had thrown earlier were seemingly intended to catch Yang Yuan off guard.

In reality, they were merely bait used to distract Yang Yuan.

Blue Silver Grass Bind was Tang San's true finishing move.

For Tang San knew well that ordinary methods could not effectively harm Yang Yuan.

However, after his Blue Silver Grass absorbed the Datura Snake spirit ring, it inherited the paralyzing effect of the Datura Snake's toxin.

If he could bind Yang Yuan, it would definitely cause him to lose his combat effectiveness or significantly reduce it in a short time.

Tang San's combat experience was vast, yet he still underestimated Yang Yuan's Dual Pupils.

The moment he struck, Yang Yuan had already seen through his movements.

Even the trajectory of the spirit power circulating within his body was completely within Yang Yuan's grasp.

Thus, the instant the deep blue Blue Silver Grass emerged from beneath Yang Yuan's feet, he tapped his toes and easily evaded them once more.

Tang San's pupils constricted.

He could even react to this!

Looking again, Yang Yuan was less than ten feet away from him.

Not good!

Tang San thought to himself as he used the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, his figure retreating rapidly.

At the same time, he used Controlling Crane Catching Dragon to grab another handful of pebbles, flicking them all out between his fingers.

Only then did Yang Yuan's speed appear to "slow down."

Seeing this, Tang San's eyes lit up with joy.

It seemed Yang Yuan wasn't invincible; those eyes of his had limits too.

"Yang Yuan, I've found your weakness!"

Tang San worked even harder.

While retreating with the Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, he also used Controlling Crane Catching Dragon to throw pebbles and contend with Yang Yuan.

In the pursuit and evasion, Yang Yuan was actually unable to take down Tang San in a short time.

The surrounding crowd watched, impressed by the high-level exchange though they didn't fully understand it.

"Hiss~"

"Tang San can actually hold his own against Boss Yang for this long?"

Xiao Chenyu sucked in a breath of cold air.

One must know that yesterday, Xiao Wu had no power to fight back at all against Boss Yang.

Even Xiao Wu couldn't help but wonder.

Is Little San really this strong?

On the other side.

Within Yang Yuan's Dual Pupils, the color of Chaos swirled.

Every movement of Tang San, every detail, including the trajectory of the Internal Energy flowing within his body, was fully revealed in Yang Yuan's eyes.

If there were a progress bar, Yang Yuan would likely see the bars for Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track, Controlling Crane Catching Dragon, and Purple Demon Eye surging upward.

However, if he held back too much, it was hard to guarantee that no flaws would be noticed.

Thus, after chasing for a few more minutes, Yang Yuan suddenly accelerated, seizing a flaw in Tang San's movement to dash forward.

In the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of Tang San.

Terrible!

Tang San was horrified; he hadn't expected Yang Yuan to catch such a tiny flaw.

What followed was a series of punches from Yang Yuan, fulfilling Xiao Wu's wish by letting Tang San end up in the same state as her.

Half a minute later.

Tang San collapsed powerlessly to the ground.

Yang Yuan stood by his head, looking down at him.

"Challenging me comes with a price!"

"This is that price!"

Upon hearing this, a sharp light burst from Tang San's eyes, which were swollen into narrow slits.

"You may have won this time, but next time..."

"I will definitely win!"

Tang San was full of confidence.

He had already discovered Yang Yuan's weakness!

Seeing this, the corners of Yang Yuan's mouth curled up slightly.

Having motivation was good; it made his long performance with Tang San worthwhile.

The reason he held back was to give Tang San the illusion that they were evenly matched.

This way, Tang San would continue to challenge him in the future.

It would also make it easier for him to continue copying the Tang Sect Ultimate Skills.

Jie jie~

The battle ended, and the onlookers stepped forward, their expressions filled with admiration as they looked at Yang Yuan.

Xiao Wu stood in the crowd, watching Yang Yuan surrounded by everyone, and couldn't help but curl her lip.

But thinking of Tang San, who had also been beaten into a pig's head, she couldn't help but show a look of schadenfreude.

Surrounded by the crowd, Yang Yuan returned to Dormitory Seven and immediately sat cross-legged on his bed.

It looked as if he were meditating, so Wang Sheng and the others in the dormitory didn't dare make a sound, fearing they would disturb him.

But in reality, Yang Yuan was not meditating.

Within his Dual Pupils, countless complex runes shifted constantly like humanoid symbols, continuously evolving the gains he had just made.

What he had gained, besides the Tang Sect Ultimate Skills copied from Tang San, included an unexpected surprise.

Because during the battle just now.

Yang Yuan discovered that his Dual Pupils seemed capable of more than just copying Tang San's Tang Sect Ultimate Skills.

He could even copy his Spirit Ability.

Yes.

When Tang San released Blue Silver Grass Bind, Yang Yuan noticed a stream of spirit power flowing from his spirit ring through his body in a specific path before being released.

However, when Yang Yuan circulated his spirit power according to the execution path of Blue Silver Grass Bind, he did not get the corresponding result.

He immediately understood the reason.

This was because his Spirit was not the Blue Silver Grass.

But since Yang Yuan was certain he could copy Spirit Abilities, it was naturally not without cause.

The Dual Pupils could discern the Origin of heaven and earth and evolve all things into Divine Ability.

Although Yang Yuan did not have the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul.

He could evolve the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul with his own spirit power through visualization.

And the deeper the level of visualization, the stronger the evolved Blue Silver Grass would be.

This near-bug-like ability was a total dimensional strike in Douluo Continent.

One could only say that the power of the Dual Pupils was too authoritative... In an instant, another half-month passed.

During this time, Tang San challenged Yang Yuan three times, and although he failed every time.

Tang San was not discouraged.

Because he found himself getting closer and closer to defeating Yang Yuan.

In the most recent challenge, by exploiting the weakness of the Dual Pupils, he could even hold out under Yang Yuan for nearly half an hour.

And the greatest weakness of the Dual Pupils was that they had a limit.

As long as he launched enough Hidden Weapons simultaneously, he could make it impossible for Yang Yuan's Dual Pupils to react in time.

Among the Tang Sect hidden weapon techniques, there happened to be a special technique called Celestial Maiden Scattering Flowers, specifically designed to counter Yang Yuan's Dual Pupils.

This technique could throw out dozens of silver needles at once; once deployed, it would surely leave Yang Yuan unable to dodge.

Of course, Tang San did not perform this hidden weapon technique in front of Yang Yuan.

One must always keep a trump card.

If he and Yang Yuan were to become enemies in the future, this move would serve as a perfect surprise.

At the academy's back mountain.

Yang Yuan faced the simultaneous attacks of Tang San and Xiao Wu, "luckily" winning after a fierce battle of half an hour.

He looked at Tang San and Xiao Wu and shook his head.

"It seems I should also go get my first spirit ring, otherwise I'm afraid it won't be long before I can't beat you guys anymore."

Hearing this, Xiao Wu hurriedly said, "Boss, don't be in such a hurry to get a spirit ring. How about waiting a bit longer?"

She still wanted to avenge her previous humiliation.

She had finally seen hope recently; if Yang Yuan got a spirit ring, wouldn't her hope be dashed?

After all, Yang Yuan was already this powerful without absorbing a spirit ring.

Wouldn't they be even less of a match for him once he absorbed one?

To the side, Tang San asked curiously, "Yang Yuan, is which teacher taking you to get your spirit ring?"

Yang Yuan spread his hands.

"I'll just go by myself; there's no need to trouble the teachers."

Tang San raised an eyebrow at those words.

He had been to the Spirit Hunting Forest with his teacher and knew how difficult it was to obtain a spirit ring.

Just a four-hundred-year Datura Snake almost killed both him and his teacher, whose spirit power was as high as level twenty-nine.

If no one led him, Yang Yuan would probably struggle to deal even with a hundred-year Spirit Beast.

Thinking of this, a thought suddenly sprouted in Tang San's mind.

He already knew Yang Yuan's weakness; if Yang Yuan absorbed a ten-year spirit ring... wouldn't he be even less of a match for him in the future?

Thinking of this, Tang San immediately smiled and said, "In that case, I wish Boss a smooth journey!"

Yang Yuan grinned and meaningfully patted Tang San on the shoulder.

"Then I'll take your kind words."

"By the way, your idea of adding a poison attribute spirit ring to the Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul is a stroke of genius."

"However, the toxicity of the Datura Snake is still too low. I recommend you hunt something like the Man Faced Demon Spider or the Soul Devouring Demon Spider; those Spirit Beasts have strong enough toxins."

"I look forward to the day you defeat me."

"Sigh, being invincible all the time can be lonely!"

Tang San was stunned by those words.

He had heard his teacher mention the Man Faced Demon Spider and the Soul Devouring Demon Spider; they were incredibly poisonous and very suitable for the Blue Silver Grass Spirit.

He hadn't expected Yang Yuan to give him such correct advice.

Thinking of this, Tang San looked at Yang Yuan's departing back and couldn't help but think.

He's actually quite a good person!
