"Alright, thank you, teacher." Tang San didn't refuse out of politeness, nor did he stubbornly reject it to show his capability. He simply agreed and then went back to wash up.
At this moment, Si Ru slowly walked over to Guan Longjiang and asked, "What do you think of this child?"
Guan Longjiang replied, "Not bad. He's young, but very steady, and he doesn't have any arrogance. His physical strength is also good; he just lifted six weights. For his age, to have such physical strength proves that his foundation is very solid. His breath is long and steady. He should be at the peak of the fourth stage."
Si Ru shook his head and said, "No, he's already at the fifth stage."
"Fifth stage? Nine years old, fifth stage?" Guan Longjiang was surprised, stretching out his right hand and spreading his fingers.
Si Ru pursed his lips and said, "Otherwise, why do you think Zhang Haoxuan was so eager to take on a disciple? This little Tang San is not just at the fifth stage; he might have other secrets we don't know about yet. Do you think Zhang Haoxuan would act without a reason?"
Guan Longjiang blinked and said, "Are you saying that the sly one has already made his move?"
Si Ru chuckled and said, "That's inevitable. I just didn't bother to expose him. After all, this child's demonic god transformation is just the Wind Wolf Transformation. Even if his Wind Wolf Transformation has some variations, the basic bloodline is still a bit weak. I hope he can go further."
Guan Longjiang thought for a moment and said, "If his basic bloodline is a bit weak, even if he can reach a high stage in the future, he will still be relatively weak among his peers."
Si Ru said, "This is just an initial judgment. We need to see what abilities he can display. In the afternoon's practical class, let Enqing test him thoroughly."
"Alright. We'll watch then." Guan Longjiang nodded in agreement.
Back in his room, Tang San washed up and changed into a fresh set of clothes. He immediately felt much lighter. The Profound Heaven Art is very nourishing for the body and has excellent health benefits. Tang San had practiced the Profound Heaven Art for three lifetimes, so he knew it very well. In just a short while, his fatigue was mostly gone, and his blood and qi became even more vigorous. The side effect was that he was hungry...
The cafeteria had already prepared lunch, which was boiled meat.
This so-called boiled meat was really just meat boiled in water with a bit of salt. Yes, it was that simple and plain.
For the students who had high physical exertion, the nutrients in the meat were what they needed most.
Large pots of boiled meat were on the tables, steaming hot.
With Guan Longjiang's announcement of mealtime, everyone started eating without hesitation.
Eating was a matter of grabbing quickly; the faster you were, the more you got.
Tang San was no different. He quickly joined the crowd grabbing meat, eating large bites and drinking some of the meat broth. Soon, he felt warm all over. By the time he started feeling full, not only was the meat gone, but there were hardly any bones left.
Tang San wasn't completely full, but looking at the empty pots, he was helpless.
With nothing left to eat, the students dispersed.
Tang San, however, called out to Cheng Zicheng.
"What? Not full? Actually, you can consider buying some food in town to keep on hand. The teachers don't care about this. Especially when you're punished and don't get food, you need to find a way to supplement your nutrition. It's always good to have some food prepared." Cheng Zicheng smiled.
"Okay, I'll go buy some later." Tang San agreed with this suggestion. At his current stage of cultivation, how could he not have food supplements? The better the nutrition, the better the body's refinement. Especially now that he was ready to let his body grow.
"Senior Sister, when can we usually go into the city?" Tang San asked.
Cheng Zicheng said, "After classes each day. It's allowed, but you must go with at least one other person. You can't go alone to avoid danger. And you must be low-key and not cause trouble, or you'll be heavily punished."
"Understood." Tang San nodded.
Cheng Zicheng said, "Don't think too much about it. Usually, after a day of cultivation, you'll be so tired that you won't have the energy to go into the city!"
Tang San smiled and changed the subject, "Senior Sister, you looked amazing when you flew just now. What kind of demonic god transformation is that? Can you tell me?"
Cheng Zicheng giggled, "My demonic god transformation is the Golden Peng Transformation, the bloodline of the Golden-winged Great Peng Bird."
Tang San's eyes lit up, "It sounds very powerful!"
Cheng Zicheng said somewhat helplessly, "But my bloodline strength is a bit lacking, so my cultivation isn't that fast. The teacher said that if I can break through to the seventh stage, they will try to help me undergo a reversion to enhance my bloodline strength. That will give me a better chance to continue improving in the future."
"What is reversion?" Tang San asked in surprise.
Cheng Zicheng said, "I don't know the specifics either. I just heard the teacher mention it. It's a ritual, but it requires many precious materials. It's very difficult. Reversion wasn't invented by us but by the demon and spirit races to purify their bloodlines. It's useful for us too."
Tang San nodded silently, "Senior Sister, is the practical class this afternoon for us to spar?"
Cheng Zicheng's eyes flickered, "What? You want to spar with me? Do you think I'm weak because I'm young? Let me tell you, I'm very strong. Be careful, or I'll beat you up."
Tang San laughed, "I just want to learn from Senior Sister's Golden Peng Transformation. It sounds very impressive."
Cheng Zicheng giggled, "I won't hold back. Alright, I'm going to rest. I'm so tired. I'll take a nap first."
Watching her leave, Tang San thought to himself, "Senior Sister, I don't want to spar with you because you're weak! It's because I'm interested in your bloodline power. Even absorbing a little bit would be great. Being able to fly is so important."
Indeed, after hearing Cheng Zicheng describe her demonic god transformation, Tang San had already decided that his fifth demonic god transformation imprint would be the Golden Peng Transformation.
In the two days since he arrived at the Redemption Academy, after gaining a preliminary understanding of the place, his first feeling was that he had come to a place full of treasures. His senior brothers and sisters were all treasure boys and treasure girls!
Each of them had a rare and precious demonic god transformation bloodline. This meant that he could learn these powerful demonic god transformation abilities from them! Regardless of how to improve in the future, at least he could have these abilities now. Moreover, as his senior brothers and sisters' cultivation improved, their bloodline power would naturally become stronger. As long as he absorbed a little, the bloodline imprints he learned would also become stronger. This was much easier than hunting demon races.
Like the Heavenly Fox Eye that his most familiar character, Du Bai, possessed, and Cheng Zicheng's Golden Peng Transformation, these were all rare and valuable abilities that would be very helpful to him.
He would need to observe the other senior brothers and sisters to know what abilities they had, which could be future goals. As long as he absorbed a little bloodline power, they could recover in a short time, and as long as he was careful, they might not even notice.
Tang San currently had four imprints: the Wind Wolf Transformation imprint, the Flash Leopard Transformation imprint, the Rhinoceros Transformation imprint, and the Lingxin Eye imprint, which was a fusion of the White-headed Falcon and the Spirit Rhinoceros.
These imprints, fundamentally, were not very strong because they were not from powerful demon races. For Tang San to become stronger in this world, besides improving the Profound Heaven Art, he needed the abilities these bloodline imprints provided. This was a constraint of this world.
Only after he broke through to the divine level in the future would he have a chance to challenge this plane and regain some of his abilities from his previous life.
