Chapter 139: I Would Like To Make A Hammer
"Oh? What kind of weapon are you thinking of getting?" Zhang Haoxuan asked, somewhat surprised.
"I want to make a hammer," Tang San said.
"That\'s easy to do. You can have it made at the blacksmith\'s shop. But can an ordinary hammer really do anything to increase your close-quarters combat abilities ? Are you referring to the Disorder Wind Splitting Hammer technique you taught Gu Li? How did you come up with that idea? I have to admit, it\'s quite interesting. I\'ve seen Gu Li practicing it a lot lately."
Tang San chuckled. "You don\'t really think I made it up myself, do you? It\'s recorded in the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record. I haven\'t even mastered it yet myself. But I think its destructive power is pretty amazing. And with my ability to control the wind element, I can use that to increase the speed of my rotations, which could be effective. I plan to forge the hammer myself and ask for your help firing it up."
Zhang Haoxuan laughed. "Don\'t tell me you know how to smith as well!"
Tang San scratched his head. "It shouldn\'t be too difficult, right?"
Of course, he couldn\'t tell Zhang Haoxuan that his father, in his previous life, was the number one blacksmith in the Douluo Continent. Tang San had learned from the best, and he was already rather adept at making hidden weapons from his first life. His blacksmithing skills likely surpassed the level of any blacksmith on the Daemon Continent.
"Alright then, come find me tomorrow afternoon. I\'m free. I\'ll take you to the blacksmith\'s shop. You can try it out yourself, and if it doesn\'t work out, we can ask the blacksmith for help." Zhang Haoxuan agreed.
Tang San gave him an extraordinary sense of anticipation. Since his arrival at the Redemption Academy, he had continuously brought everyone shocks and surprises, sometimes even a sense of fear.
The world certainly had its geniuses, and the demon race was replete with them. However, Tang San was undoubtedly the most talented human Zhang Haoxuan had ever encountered.
Perhaps it was fate that the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record chose him. Only Zhang Haoxuan knew that because of this, Tang San had become even more significant in his eyes than Du Bai and Gu Li, who possessed the top-tier Demonic God Transformations bloodlines.
Tang San had reached the sixth order before he even turned ten. His rate of improvement was astounding! If he continued this way, he should be able to reach the ninth order before the age of twenty, and who knew whether he would touch the threshold of the mysterious level beyond the twelfth order in the future? It was still uncertain to what extent he could cultivate the Mysterious Heaven Technique.
The fact that Zhang Haoxuan had escorted Tang San\'s team on their outing was actually primarily out of concern for Tang San\'s safety. The more potent Tang San\'s abilities and the faster his progress, the more importance Zhang Haoxuan placed on him.
To protect Tang San, even the organization was kept in the dark about his connection to the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record. This secret was too important to reveal before Tang San was fully developed.
"By the way, now that you\'ve reached the sixth order, I will apply to elevate your Redemption class to Orange," Zhang Haoxuan told Tang San.
"Alright, thank you, Master," Tang San responded.
Among the students, only Wu Bingji was an Orange-Class Redeemer due to his cultivation. Reaching the sixth order naturally qualified one for the Orange Class even without significant contributions to the organization.
"A nine-year-old Orange-Class member, hehe, you\'ve certainly set a record. However, Little Tang, I must remind you. Don\'t stand out too much in the academy. You\'re already quite noticeable here. You know your situation; it\'s better to be steady and low-key."
"Okay, Teacher, I understand. \'Grow quietly, don\'t show off!\'" Tang San said with a chuckle.
"Exactly, that\'s the spirit. Go now, get some rest. Come over after lunch tomorrow; I\'ll make arrangements with the blacksmith\'s shop," Zhang Haoxuan said.
After Tang San left, Zhang Haoxuan closed the door and picked up the milk tea. A faint red glow danced at his fingertips, quickly warming up the tea. The aroma of milk mixed with the scent of tea lingered in his nostrils. Zhang Haoxuan took a deep breath and slowly sipped the milk tea, his eyes thoughtful.
After returning from the last practical training, Zhang Haoxuan had been away for a few days. During this time, he had thoroughly investigated Tang San\'s entire history from birth to the present, carefully examining every single minute detail.
It was really because Tang San was too outstanding, like a treasure trove, always bringing out something novel and intriguing.
During the team\'s training expedition, Zhang Haoxuan had observed Tang San giving pointers to Wu Bingji, Gu Li, Cheng Zicheng, and Du Bai, and nothing had escaped his notice.
Whether it was the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer, the control over the ice element that he taught Wu Bingji, or even the method of training one\'s eyesight, they were all unprecedented among humans.
His biggest worry was, naturally, Tang San\'s background. If he turned out to be a demon sent to infiltrate the Redemption Society, that would be a significant problem.
However, all evidence showed that Tang San\'s background was spotless, without any flaws. Zhang Haoxuan could also clearly feel Tang San\'s helpfulness and kindness toward everyone around him.
What Tang San didn\'t realize was that his master could have ended his own fight much earlier on the day they faced the Winged Tiger King. Indeed, Zhang Haoxuan was a true blue powerhouse even among ninth-order beings. He had noticed the situation with the tigress and could have provided support earlier. In fact, he had been monitoring the battlefield, ready to intervene at any moment. He wanted to see how Tang San would react in a life-and-death situation.
What shocked Zhang Haoxuan was that the three students actually managed to kill the tigress at the last moment.
Others didn\'t notice, but Zhang Haoxuan, with his mighty spiritual power, realized that Tang San had also used Time Freeze. In other words, he had absorbed the Chrono Croc Transformation from Gu Li, utilizing his Mysterious Heaven Technique. That was his fifth type of Demonic God Transformation.
Zhang Haoxuan was shocked and filled with amazement.
This was why he had re-examined Tang San\'s background after returning, even though he had already done a background check long before he had even met the child.
Now, he had come to trust Tang San fully. After carefully investigating and considering Tang San\'s overall situation, he truly believed that he was a proper human.
There was also another reason for this certainty: even among the demons and nymphs, no creature with five different bloodlines existed.
There were indeed anomalies, with some demons inheriting two different bloodlines from their parents. But this was the limit, as more bloodlines would create a chaotic mix, preventing any bloodline power from ever being enhanced.
However, Tang San was different. He had five Demonic God Transformation abilities, and each one would grow as he grew. Zhang Haoxuan was sure this was unprecedented in the history of the continent.
Leaving aside the fact he unquestionably had human blood, even if Tang San was an actual demon, he would be a supreme genius in their world. Any demon clan would surely treasure him beyond imagination; how could they send him as a spy?
In fact, the demons were aware of the Redemption Society but had not launched targeted campaigns against them, as neither demons nor nymphs took the Redemption Society seriously. To them, the Society was little more than an annoyance.
Therefore, Zhang Haoxuan increasingly believed that Tang San might be uniquely blessed, truly a divine favor upon humanity.
Such an exceptional human has to be protected and nurtured at all costs. In the future, Tang San might very well become the true leader of humanity!
