Early morning.
Tang San got up early, and cultivating the Purple Extreme Magic Eye had become something he had to do every day. Moreover, there were a few important things that needed to be done urgently this morning.
As he and Oscar walked out of their dormitory, the outside sky was still dark. After a night's rest, Tang San's internal energy had recovered. Following Oscar's directions, he quickly arrived at the empty space where Zhao Wuji had tested them yesterday to pick up his hidden weapons.
These hidden weapons were not easy to make, and he couldn't bear to easily discard them. Especially that tight-backed flower-ornamented crossbow's bolt and the poisonous needles shot out by the sand-shooting shadow, which made him even more painstaking in their production, taking no short amount of time.
It's okay, the hidden weapons used yesterday are basically all there. With the keenness of Zixi Magic Eye, he quickly found these hidden weapons one by one and put them back in their original positions.
In the several years in Noding City, Tang San had already fully armed himself. Yesterday's battle with Zhao Wuji was his first time to fully display his hidden weapon skills.
At this time, while picking up the hidden weapons, Tang San was thinking about the gains and losses of yesterday's battle. Zhao Wuji's defensive power was really too astonishing. Fortunately, his speed was not fast, and he did not use his full strength, otherwise, he himself would not have had even a slight chance. When facing such a strong enemy, what should he do? If he were to face such an enemy again in the future, what method could he use to win?
Various thoughts flashed through Tang San's mind, and he understood that his skills in hidden weapons were not yet refined enough. These were not things that could be improved upon in a day or two; the top-ranked hidden weapons in the Xuan Tian Ming Jade required strong internal energy as a foundation. If he wanted to deal with powerful opponents like Zhao Wuji at his current level, then there was only one way to do it: create powerful mechanical hidden weapons, such as the three most terrifying mechanical hidden weapons of the Tang Sect - Buddha Fury Tang Lotus, Stormy Rain Pear Flower Needle, and Peacock Plume.
It's just that these three hidden weapons are too difficult to make, and the requirements for materials are extremely demanding. Under current conditions, it is impossible to manufacture them. Moreover, although Tang San has experience in making these three hidden weapons, remaking any one of them would require at least a year's time, assuming the search for materials goes smoothly.
He let out a deep sigh, and Tang San shook his head helplessly. Given his current situation, manufacturing these three hidden weapons was equally unrealistic. It seemed that he could only work hard to cultivate himself, striving to gradually increase the power of his hidden weapons. At the same time, he also had to better arm himself. When the opportunity arose, he would first prepare some poison and then consider other options. However, relying solely on the Mantra Snake's venom was too simplistic.
After picking up all the hidden weapons, Tang San jumped onto the roof of a house and began to cultivate towards the gradually appearing purple energy in the east.
Pressure is also motivation, after yesterday's battle, he has a faint feeling that his soul power has broken through the 29th level and entered the 30th level. As long as he can enter the 30th level, after a certain period of cultivation to practice the 30th-level soul power, he can go hunt and kill the third soul beast, adding another soul ring. At that time, his strength will also have a qualitative leap.
When the sun rose, Tang San returned to his dormitory. At this time, Oscar was still hugging his quilt and sleeping soundly. In the morning, he was woken up by Tang San asking about yesterday's low score on the exam, and even drooled while sleeping.
"Little Ao, wake up." Tang San pushed Oscar gently.
"What's going on? Let me sleep a bit longer." Oscar mumbled.
Tang San furrowed his brow and said, "Get up quickly. It's already late. Don't you know that a day's plan is made in the morning?"
Oscar opened his eyes with some helplessness, looking at Tang San, "I'm different from you guys, you're Battle Soul Masters. I'm a Tool Soul Master, and also a Food System one. No need to cultivate like you guys do. Big brother, please don't disturb me, let me sleep for a while longer."
Tang San helplessly said: "Then you first tell me where Xiao Wu lives. I want to go take a look at whether she's alright or not."
Oscar said: "You go out of our dormitory to the left, about thirty meters away, there is a wooden house, that's where Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong live. However, I must remind you. The academy has clear rules, male students are not allowed to disturb female students at will. Otherwise, the school rules are very severe. Our Shrek Academy occupies one-third of the area in this village, and the other side is where the villagers live. Try not to go there usually."
Shrek Academy is indeed not rich, the whole academy just rented a third of the village area and simply built it. The so-called school buildings are just the wooden houses of the villagers before. Fortunately, it's relatively close to Soto City, buying things is relatively convenient.
Tang San left his dormitory once again. At this time, he was a bit hungry in the stomach, but compared to Xiao Wu, this problem would naturally be solved later.
Soon, Tang San arrived at the dormitory of Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong. Should he go in directly? If it were only Xiao Wu, there wouldn't be a problem, as they had lived together for so long and were siblings. But with another girl present, it would be somewhat inconvenient.
Tang San hesitated for a moment before deciding not to enter. Instead, he called out softly from outside: "Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu..."
Not waiting for too long, the door opened and Xiaowu walked out from inside. She was still wearing the same outfit as yesterday, except that her face looked a bit pale, otherwise she seemed to be fine.
Seeing her appear, Tang San immediately let out a sigh of relief, "Xiao Wu, are you feeling better?"
Xiao Wu made a silencing gesture to Tang San, "Rong Rong is still cultivating, don't disturb her. Let's go somewhere else to talk."
For some reason, Tang San felt that Xiao Wu's gaze at him today seemed somewhat different. Where exactly the change was, he couldn't say himself.
