Douluo Continent: My Martial Soul, the Fangtian Halberd, Empowers Me with Filial Piety

Chapter 9 Condemned by All

"Yi'er! Come here!"

Tang San turned around and looked at Jiang Yi, his tone much gentler.

Just as the Abyss Saint King had thought, Jiang Yi's importance was greatly elevated at this moment, and even he found Jiang Yi much more pleasing to the eye.

This child resembles me; he will surely achieve great things in the future!
"Yes!"

Jiang Yi took two steps forward, only to see Tang San raise his hand and point a finger at his forehead. Divine light suddenly shone brightly, and his vision instantly turned into a white blur.

In a daze, Jiang Yi seemed to have stepped into a mysterious realm.

Tang San, holding the Trident of the Sea God, stood in mid-air, his gaze lowered, looking down at Jiang Yi.

"As your father is far away in the realm of gods, I cannot offer you much help. Therefore, I will teach you this halberd technique for self-defense."

"Once the grand plan of ten thousand years is completed, the position of Sea God will surely belong to you!"

Tang San opened his mouth and immediately took a big bite of pancake. As his mole, it was important for Jiang Yi to remain loyal to him.

After speaking, Tang San said no more. Holding the Trident of the Sea God, his gentle and friendly demeanor changed, and a sharp edge that seemed to pierce through the heavens and earth appeared on his body.

He pointed his halberd into the distance, and thousands of golden rays burst forth, only to converge into a single line in an instant.

boom!
Poseidon's trident thrust out, a massive golden trident piercing the sky, causing the heavens and earth to tremble, as if this single strike would pierce the clouds.

In an instant, Jiang Yi felt as if a tremendous force was pointing at his body, threatening to pierce through him, and his mind went blank for a moment.

Condemned by everyone!
This is Tang San's improved version of the original Thirteen Halberds of the Sea God, which is also a beginner's version.

The golden halberd shadow pierced towards Jiang Yi, but just before it struck, it suddenly withdrew its power, transforming into a golden mark that sank into his forehead.

Jiang Yicai awoke from that profound and boundless state of mind after an unknown amount of time.

"call!"

Jiang Yi let out a long sigh of relief, and when he opened his eyes again, he was back in reality.

"If you have any urgent business, you can activate the sea god mark on your forehead, and your father will appear."

Tang San's divine sense entered the Trident of the Sea God, and then merged into Tang Wuling's body, leaving Jiang Yi with only a word of advice.

He naturally wouldn't be without precautions against Jiang Yi, who was an insider who knew his grand plan for ten thousand years.

The mark of the sea god was both a means of survival left to him and a medium to monitor Jiang Yi. If Jiang Yi showed any disloyalty, he would make him understand what the wrath of the sea god meant.

"I will heed my father's teachings!"

Jiang Yi shook his head to dispel the confusion in his mind, and then respectfully bowed to the vanished Tang San.

He didn't care about the sea god's mark; with the system around, having two more wouldn't matter.

Then, Jiang Yi did not linger there, transforming into a streak of light and disappearing into the night.

……

[Ding! Congratulations, host, you have obtained the cosmic coordinates of the Crimson Dimension!]

Inside the dormitory, Jiang Yi lay on his bed and opened the system treasure chest he had just opened.

"???"

Jiang Yi rolled his eyes. This is my second grandma's house, why do I need you to give me the coordinates?

"Never mind! You never know when you might need it."

Jiang Yi shook his head, no longer dwelling on it, and calmed down to review tonight's actions.

"We can't take such risks anymore."

Jiang Yi reflected in his heart that tonight was actually quite dangerous.

The chance encounter between the Abyss Saint Lord and Tang San was caused by him, but the outcome was beyond his control.

If the two of them really meet face to face, then Jiang Yi will have no room for maneuver and will have to choose a side.

However, with high risk comes high reward, and his gains were also extremely high.

With Tang San and the Abyss both contributing to the profits, plus the system rewards, Jiang Yi essentially won four big prizes.

"Perhaps I should also take in some traitors?"

Jiang Yi stroked his chin, thinking, "Loyalty is impossible. If I don't get any gold coins from my godfather, then what's the point of worshipping him?"

However, he can't always do it himself.

This time, Tang San thought it was his mistake, but if he continued to do this, the other party would definitely become suspicious.

Too many coincidences, and then they're no longer coincidences.

It would be ideal if someone could quietly "leak" the information to both sides for him.

With his thoughts on the future in mind, Jiang Yi slowly drifted off to sleep.

It's too early to think about these things now. His most important task right now is to improve his strength. That will be the time for him to enter the sea like a dragon and stir up the winds and clouds.

……

The next day, early morning.

Jiang Yi wielded his halberd, creating streaks of light in the air, the wind whipping up countless fallen leaves from the trees. "Hoo! The task ahead is arduous and the road is long!"

Jiang Yi sheathed his halberd and stood there, letting out a long breath.

The skill that attracts the attention of thousands is not only a divine skill, but also contains the foundation of countless halberd techniques.

It can be said that once you master one technique, you will understand everything. Once you master it, your halberd skills will have reached a high level of mastery in terms of technique.

"Damn! You've been secretly working hard behind my back."

A strange scream suddenly came from the second floor.

Xie Xie was holding a water cup, his mouth full of foam, when he poked his head out to look, spraying toothpaste foam far away.

The two have gotten along much better recently, and Xie Xie has gradually revealed his goofy nature.

"It's almost eight o'clock... You'd better hurry up, or you'll be late."

Jiang Yi rolled his eyes and said irritably, "Could it be that you got up too late?"

No wonder you have twin martial souls and are born with full soul power, yet your soul power is only at level eighteen. You are a disgrace to twin martial souls.

The girl next door, Wu Siduo, is probably almost level 30 by now.

How can you sleep at your age?

"What? It's so late?"

Upon hearing this, Xie Xie's expression changed, and he quickly sped up his washing.

Others might not know, but he certainly knew of Wu Changkong's formidable reputation.

……

Ten minutes later.

"Ring ring ring..."

As soon as the bell rang, two figures rushed in.

"I...I almost missed it!"

Xie Xie slumped into his seat, panting heavily.

"What's the rush... just run faster than the teacher."

Jiang Yi remained calm, raised an eyebrow, and gestured towards the classroom door. Wu Changkong entered just as the bell rang.

When they ran over, Wu Changkong was right behind them.

"You don't understand! Teacher Wu, that's something else..."

Xie Xie lowered his head and made a mysterious gesture towards Jiang Yi.

"Girls call him the Cold-Faced God, but boys call him the Cold-Faced Asura! He's a Soul Emperor, so guess why he's teaching first-year students?"

"Because last month, he broke a teacher's leg in the senior section..."

Xie Xie had an indescribable expression on his face, as if Wu Changkong were some kind of deadly weapon.

"Quiet!"

A cold voice came from the podium. Wu Changkong's gaze swept across the class, lingering especially on Xie Xie.

Do you really think he can't hear you?

"Den!"

The young man with two daggers jolted and sat up straight instantly, no longer daring to utter another word.

"Starting today, classes will officially begin, and I will personally instruct you in most of your lessons."

Wu Changkong stopped pressing Xie Xie and announced in a calm tone.

Soul Masters are more focused on practical combat and do not require different theoretical courses like other professions. Teachers usually take on multiple roles.

"All rise!"

Wu Changkong gave a cold shout, and everyone immediately stood up.

"Today's first lesson is practical training. Follow me!"

Wu Changkong turned around and led all the students toward the playground.

The group remained completely silent, with only the soft sound of their footsteps.

Before long, the group arrived at the training ground.

Wu Changkong stared at the crooked and disorderly line in front of him, his brows furrowed slightly, but he still suppressed his dissatisfaction.

"Next, we'll have a demonstration of your skills. You'll be paired up and will spar against each other!"

Wu Changkong spoke in a cold voice, then his gaze shot directly to Xie Xie, who was hiding at the back of the group.

"First match: Xie Xie versus Tang Wuling!"
