Tang Wulin quickly spoke to ease the atmosphere, "Sect Master Zang, there's no need for this. We're just reminiscing about Hall Master Zhao, and what you said is also true!"
Upon hearing this, Zang Xin's gaze towards Tang Wulin became even kinder. Stroking his beard, he praised without hesitation, "As expected, you're the one who knows how to speak as the Young Sect Master, unlike those two old geezers who just know how to make a fuss all day!"
Liang Xiaoyu and Guo Xiaoxu were immediately displeased. They had been working tirelessly for the Tang Sect, how could such dedication be summarized as mere fuss?
"Sect Master, we're still here! We can't just ignore what was said. For the Tang Sect, I have truly put in a lot of effort!"
"I... I've also managed each hall in an orderly manner. Sect Master, you're being a bit too harsh!"
Zang Xin pursed his lips, "Hmph, you two indeed have contributed somewhat to the Tang Sect, but..."
"In recent years, haven't you caused quite some trouble? And who was the one who helped you resolve it in the end?"
Upon hearing this, Liang Xiaoyu and Guo Xiaoxu seemed to recall something and instantly lost their confidence...
"Well... Sect Master, you do have a point. From now on, Hall Master Guo and I will... will try to make less fuss!"
Seeing this scene, Tang Wulin couldn't help but smile awkwardly...
It seemed that Hall Master Liang and Hall Master Guo were not as reliable as they appeared; they had indeed brought quite a bit of trouble to the Tang Sect!
Zang Xin scoffed coldly, no longer pursuing the matter, "Alright, I'm not going to go over these past events anymore. You two should get going; I have matters to discuss with Wulin!"
After saying this, he looked at Tang Wulin, "Wulin, come with me!"
Though Tang Wulin was a bit confused, he nodded and followed him...
As their figures gradually disappeared into the distance, Liang Xiaoyu glared fiercely at Guo Xiaoxu, "Hall Master Guo, if we're talking about it, those matters were all caused by you!"
Guo Xiaoxu immediately retorted, "Bah, it's not like you didn't participate!"
"But, the Sect Master's intention to guide Tang Wulin in cultivation is quite amusing!"
Tang Wulin's strength was now greater than Zang Xin's!
Liang Xiaoyu shrugged, "Who knows, maybe there are things he doesn't want us to hear."
"However, I'm truly looking forward to that kid Wulin breaking through to God Rank. Then the Tang Sect would undoubtedly be the number one sect in the world!"
Guo Xiaoxu patted his shoulder, sighing, "Hall Master Liang, have you forgotten something? If Wulin really does break through to God Rank, he will be summoned to the Higher Realm and won't be able to remain in the Lower Realm!"
"At that time, the Sea God's Pavilion will lose its Pavilion Master, and the Tang Sect will lose its Young Sect Master!"
Liang Xiaoyu also realized, "Hiss... it does seem like that!"
Once he ascends to the Higher Realm, he will be bound by its rules and won't be able to descend to the Lower Realm easily!
But soon, they realized this was something beyond anyone's control, "Forget it, let's just follow the flow. After all, without the Holy Spirit Cult and abyssal creatures causing trouble, the Continent is relatively peaceful!"
...
On the other side, after arriving in a room, Zang Xin signaled Tang Wulin to sit...
The latter did not hesitate and, after sitting down, eagerly asked, "Sect Master Zang, why did you summon me? It can't really be just about cultivation, right?"
Zang Xin didn't answer directly but questioned, "Wulin, to what extent have you cultivated now?"
Tang Wulin answered without hesitation, "Uh... I was lucky enough to reach the level of Ultimate Douluo!"
Not just himself, but several members of the Shrek Seven Monsters had almost all reached this level!
Zang Xin shook his head and explained, "That's not what I meant. You can attempt to break through to God Rank, so you must have reached the level of Ultimate Douluo!"
"What I mean is, your control over Divine Power!"
Tang Wulin paused, "Divine Power??"
Then, rubbing his nose, he said, "In that case, I suppose it's manageable?"
After reaching the Hyper Douluo rank, a very small portion of one's soul power within the body would convert into Divine Power, which wasn't a secret!
But it was only by breaking through to God Rank that one's Divine Power would be completely transformed into Divine Power!
This essentially meant becoming a God!
Zang Xin was evidently dissatisfied with this response, "What do you mean by manageable? Be specific!!"
Tang Wulin thought for a moment, "Roughly... about ten percent or so of my soul power has converted into Divine Power. Of course, I'm not entirely sure!!"
This answer made Zang Xin's eyes widen, "Wulin, how much did you just say??"
If he hadn't misheard, Tang Wulin said that roughly ten percent of his soul power had converted into Divine Power!!
He knew that even he had only achieved a few percent!
Tang Wulin scratched his head awkwardly, "Sect Master, this is just my estimation; it might not be that little."
Zang Xin almost fainted from anger...
"Little??"
"Wulin, are you seriously mocking me? I've been cultivating all my life and only managed to convert a few percent of my soul power into Divine Power. Your ten percent is not just more, it's much, much more!!"
Hearing this, Tang Wulin frowned, "Could it be because of consuming Immortal Herbs??"
Zang Xin vehemently denied, "Impossible, even Immortal Herbs couldn't allow your Divine Power conversion rate to reach that level!"
Tang Wulin took a deep breath, "If it's not the Immortal Herbs... could it be because of Teacher Xu??"
Zang Xin hesitated momentarily before tentatively guessing, "Teacher Xu... you mean Xu Sheng?"
Tang Wulin nodded affirmatively, "That's right, from the beginning of my cultivation, I have followed Teacher Xu almost constantly!"
"His level could be that of a Divine King in the Higher Realm, or perhaps even stronger. The immense Divine Power he unintentionally releases could have an influence on me!!"
Zang Xin pursed his lips, finding it somewhat reasonable, "If that's the case, it might indeed be possible!!"
"But... given the density of Divine Power in your body, you should be able to break through to God Rank!"
Tang Wulin helplessly shook his head, "Regarding that point, I'm unsure myself. It always feels like there's an invisible shackle confining me!"
After hearing this, Zang Xin felt guilty, "I'm sorry, Wulin. I summoned you to share some cultivation experiences, but it appears it was a misunderstanding on my part!"
The situation Tang Wulin was facing was something he couldn't solve or understand!
However, Tang Wulin didn't show any disappointment, "Sect Master Zang, it's alright. Even if you hadn't summoned me, I would have come to the Tang Sect at some point."
"After all, I'm still the Young Sect Master. I can't just focus on Shrek Academy without visiting the Tang Sect!"
Before coming, he had already anticipated such an outcome!
After all, his situation was indeed somewhat different from others!!
