"These are all excellent items!"
Tang Yi's eyes lit up. His homeland of Great Xia had indeed responded to him.
He then opened the letter and carefully read the reply.
The letter had been written by the beautiful professor Su Xiaoyin. Her handwriting was elegant and refined, graceful and dignified. The main content warmed Tang Yi's heart deeply:
"Hello, Transmigrator Tang Yi! Your homeland of Great Xia has received your letter and the Blue Silver Grass. We now know that you are in a difficult situation!"
"Please remain positive and optimistic at all times. Great Xia will never abandon any of its citizens!"
"As heaven moves with vigor, the gentleman ceaselessly strengthens himself; as earth is receptive and yielding, the gentleman carries all things with great virtue! Great Xia has provided you with some material support to assist you in rising on the Douluo Continent and becoming a powerful soul master!"
"Additionally, the Blue Silver Grass specimen you provided is truly remarkable. After six days of research, the Highest Institute of Science and Technology has successfully produced an initial version of a life-recovery agent, which is currently undergoing clinical trials on patients with advanced pancreatic cancer. If you are able, please continue to send more unique biological samples from the Douluo Continent to Great Xia!"
"Written on behalf of: Su Xiaoyin, Associate Professor, Research Institute No. 19, Highest Institute of Science and Technology of Great Xia."
After finishing the letter, a surge of national pride rose within Tang Yi. The resounding declaration that "Great Xia will never abandon any of its people" struck him with great force!
From this moment onward, Tang Yi was no longer alone on the Douluo Continent!
Behind him stood the full support of an entire nation!
"Judging from the fact that six days have passed since this reply was written, the time ratio between the Douluo Continent and Blue Star should be 1:2! One day on the Douluo Continent equals two days on Blue Star!"
Everything Great Xia had sent this time consisted of truly outstanding items!
The first was the Nine Yang True Scripture—the foremost supreme martial art in the entire history of Great Xia's martial world!
As for the ancient Tang Sect to which Tang San belonged, in the context of Great Xia's martial history it would, for the most part, be regarded as a second-rate sect. During periods of decline, it would fall to third-rate status, and only in a few peak eras would it barely touch the threshold of a first-rate sect.
Above the Tang Sect stood superpowers such as Wudang, Shaolin Temple, the Five Sacred Mountains Sword Sects, the Sun Moon Divine Sect, the Beggars' Sect, and others!
The Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record of which Tang San was so proud paled in comparison to Shaolin's Muscle/Tendon Changing Classic, the Beggars' Sect's Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms, Wudang's Tai Chi, or the Sun Moon Divine Sect's Sunflower Manual!
Historical records of the martial world state that Zhang Wuji—the first person to shatter the void—was a practitioner of the Nine Yang True Scripture. Having cultivated the Nine Yang Divine Skill to perfection, he became invincible under heaven and was acclaimed as having reached the realm of a terrestrial immortal!
"Tang San, oh Tang San! In the eyes of the true millennium-old orthodox sects of Great Xia's martial world, the Tang Sect is nothing more than a minor school that relies on hidden weapons and poison! Compared to the Nine Yang True Scripture, your Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record is the difference between a firefly and the bright moon!"
Tang Yi was extremely excited. A significant portion of Tang San's innate full soul power stemmed from his early cultivation of the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record and the internal energy foundation provided by the Tang Sect.
"Although I started late, the Nine Yang True Scripture far surpasses the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record. In the future, with a powerful physique reinforced by this internal art, the upper limit of my soul rings can be raised indefinitely!"
Next came the second item: a case containing sixty vials of gene enhancement potion!
These represented the pinnacle of Blue Star's cutting-edge technology—agents capable of directly acting on the human body to strengthen the physique, with effects comparable to the miraculous elixirs of ancient times.
"Looking at the labels, all sixty vials are classified as: Special Grade! The value of even a single vial on Blue Star would certainly not be less than ten million yuan—and they are priceless even at that!"
"By taking one vial per day to assist my cultivation, both my soul power and internal energy will advance at tremendous speed! Great Xia has truly shown great consideration!"
Tang Yi felt profound gratitude and silently vowed to search the Douluo Continent for rare plants, soul beasts, and other unique specimens on behalf of Great Xia.
"Although the Douluo Continent is often called the 'floor tile of the xianxia genre,' it remains a fantasy world at its core! It differs fundamentally from human civilization on Blue Star. Handing over the Douluo Continent to the nation would carry immense significance!"
Such were Tang Yi's quiet thoughts.
The third item was a handgun: the Desert Eagle!
The Desert Eagle is a classic large-caliber, high-damage firearm!
Originally produced by Israel Military Industries in 1985 and refined over decades, this particular version—modified and upgraded by military experts from Great Xia's Highest Institute of Science and Technology—was even more formidable:
Firearm designation: Desert Eagle (Modified Upgraded Variant) Magazine capacity: 50 rounds Maximum muzzle velocity: 900 m/s Effective range: 1,000 meters (1 km) Maximum destructive power: Capable of penetrating 30 cm of "Tiger" tank armor
"My goodness! This upgraded version of the Desert Eagle is simply too powerful! Tang San's Tang Sect hidden weapons are nothing in comparison!"
As a modern person, holding this Desert Eagle filled Tang Yi with an overwhelming sense of security.
Although he was currently only a rank-one soul master, even if a Soul King came with hostile intent, a surprise shot from the Desert Eagle could instantly eliminate the threat!
"That beautiful professor Su Xiaoyin was truly thoughtful. This traversal delivered a full 500 rounds of ammunition!"
With the Desert Eagle in hand, Tang Yi now had the confidence to enter the soul beast forest and hunt soul beasts. It also greatly enhanced his self-defense capabilities.
Unfortunately, the Interdimensional Jade Pendant's two-way traversal ability was not without limitations. A line of text—visible only to Tang Yi—appeared clearly and prominently:
"Interdimensional Jade Pendant, current cooldown time: 30 days! Traversal will only be possible after the countdown concludes!"
The pendant operated on a remarkable yet strict principle: when Tang Yi sent items back to Great Xia and Great Xia returned supplies to him, that constituted one complete "traversal." Afterward, the pendant would enter a 30-day cooldown period!
...
Holy Soul Village, in the dilapidated small wooden hut:
Tang Hao remained as drunk and disheveled as ever.
Tang San continued to plead with his father: "Father, please allow my younger brother Tang Yi to attend Notting Junior Academy together with me! Grandpa Jack has already assigned this year's working-student quota to him. Attending school won't cost anything."
Tang Hao replied in an indifferent tone, full of disdain: "Little San, your younger brother Tang Yi is merely a waste with innate soul power of rank one! What possible use would there be in sending him to Notting Junior Soul Master Academy?"
In Tang Hao's eyes, Tang Yi—with only rank-one innate soul power and without twin martial souls or inheritance of his "Clear Sky Hammer"—was utterly worthless as a son!
"What is the point of him going to school? It would be a waste of time. He should stay home and continue cooking, making porridge, and doing chores for me! I still need someone to take care of me!"
Tang Hao spoke without the slightest shame.
A Title Douluo in his prime, an adult of several decades, shamelessly shifted the entire burden of supporting the household onto a six-year-old child.
Tang Yi's expression remained cold. Now that he had received generous gifts from his homeland of Great Xia, he had no intention of continuing to serve this beast-like Tang Hao!
Just as he was about to speak and refute Tang Hao,
Tang San continued his persuasion: "Father, if my younger brother Tang Yi reaches rank ten soul master, he will be able to collect one gold soul coin subsidy from the Spirit Hall every month! If you wish for him to continue serving you, I suggest letting him cultivate until he reaches rank ten before returning to Holy Soul Village!"
