Soul Land V (Douluo Dalu): Rebirth of Tang San

```

The next moment, the middle-aged man slowly spread his arms and looked up at the sky, crying out loud, "Great wind! Please favor your children, and let them understand the true essence of the wind."

As he chanted loudly, his body began to swell, and strands of bluish-gray fur pierced through the surface of his skin. His upper garment burst instantly, revealing his solid muscles, and a thick green light burst forth from him.

Fourth Stage? Or Fifth Stage?

That was Tang San's first impression. One could say that this middle-aged man was also the most highly cultivated human he had ever seen. The dense wind element instantly coalesced, and the wind element in the surrounding air became noticeably thicker. And this dense wind element enveloped all ten of them.

The Wind Wolf Lord turned his head to glance at the high priest and said, "Wang Yanfeng has gained quite a bit more control over the wind element!"

The high priest indifferently replied, "After all, he has the bloodline of a slave; his limit is just Fourth Stage. However, humans do have some skill in control. He's just gotten better at it. But my lord, you should stop fooling around with those she-wolves all day long and start improving your strength. Otherwise, won't you be ridiculed at our clan's grand ceremony in two years?"

The facial expression of the Wind Wolf Lord stiffened for a moment, "Understood."

Enveloped in the wind element, a faint green light swirled around the bodies of Tang San and the other nine.

Tang San's eyes narrowed slightly as he silently soaked in the richness of the wind element. The wind blades he controlled seemed to be affected as well. He carefully operated the power of the wind blade, merging it with his bloodline, causing subtle changes in his aura.

He suddenly discovered that the surging wind element around him seemed to be absorbed by him after his bloodline changed. The energy of the wind blade was being stored up.

With his intelligence and vast experience, he instantly understood something. The reason his wind blade and Leopard Flash hadn't been able to improve wasn't just due to bloodline restrictions; it was also because they lacked the assistance of a similarly attributed and rich element. Now, in this dense wind element, the wind blade was clearly being affected. That meant, given the right conditions, his wind blade could also be upgraded.

"Roar—" At that moment, among the ten people, the only surviving youth who had shown the most obvious transformation during the previous awakening tore through his clothes, with fur sprouting out and his body notably expanding. Light green light swirled in his eyes.

Wang Yanfeng's eyes brightened, and with a wave of his hand, a tornado immediately wrapped around the youth's body, pulling him to the side. This was obviously a sign of passing the assessment.

Tang San did not rush to show off. Such dense wind element would not exist in the natural world, and with his current cultivation base, he had no way to actively condense it. How could he not take the opportunity to absorb more? It might even help him break through his bottleneck.

What surprised him was that the second person to react was none other than Ling Mu Xue, right beside him. Ling Mu Xue let out a cry, and her body also inflated a bit, not as obvious as the youth before, with only the back of her neck showing fur, but the green in her eyes was noticeably thicker. Green light swirled in front of her, even slightly lifting her body off the ground.

Wang Yanfeng waved his hand again, wrapping her body in wind element and moving her to the side, while saying, "The bloodline is not strong, but more in tune with the wind element."

Afterward, two more boys, about fifteen or sixteen, showed strong reactions.

Wang Yanfeng clearly became a bit anxious, and the condensed wind element grew more intense. But Tang San could clearly see that his forehead was already covered in sweat. Supporting wind elements of this intensity was obviously consuming a lot from him.

He was working so hard, of course, hoping that more people among them would pass the bloodline assessment.

"That's about enough. Those who are lacking are just lacking. Don't delay the timing of the sacrificial ceremony," the Wind Wolf Lord said coldly.

Wang Yanfeng insisted, "My lord, give me one more minute, I feel there should be others."

```

Tang San knew he couldn't wait any longer. With his eyes closed, his hands slowly lifted in front of him. When he reopened his eyes, a bright cyan light burst forth, and the surrounding wind element clearly converged towards him, then disappeared into thin air. Then, a wind blade of about three inches coalesced in the palms of his hands. The wind blade was not large, but extremely active. In the next moment, as if out of control, the wind blade shot into the air, producing a sound of tearing through the atmosphere.

"Wind blade awakening? Is this…" Wang Yanfeng was startled, but without any hesitation, he waved his hand, bringing Tang San out with him.

"Hmm?" The high priest, sitting there, slightly furrowed her brows, glancing in Tang San's direction.

At this time, Wang Yanfeng's wind element support also ended, and he gasped for air, evidently having reached his limit.

"Not much change in the body, but strong affinity with the wind element, awakening our Wind Wolf Tribe's innate skill, wind blade. The small physical reaction is probably due to his age. It's somewhat similar to when I was his age," Wang Yanfeng said between breaths, respectfully addressing the high priest.

"Hmm." The high priest gave him a non-committal glance, moving her gaze away from Tang San. To her, a child was truly inconsequential.

There were a total of ten people who had come to participate in the test, and five had shown reactions and passed. The remaining five suddenly appeared somewhat at a loss.

The Wind Wolf Lord waved his hand, and several strong Wolf Monsters rushed forward, grabbing the five humans who failed the test and dragging them to one side.

At this moment, the high priest also slowly stood up, walking step by step towards the altar, her voice deep, "Let the sacrificial ceremony begin."

"Yes!" The Wind Wolf Lord respectfully bowed to her, and then followed her towards the altar.

Wang Yanfeng did not follow them, but stood beside the five who had just passed the test. His breathing had somewhat evened out. He lowered his head, looking at Tang San. Tang San's gaze was a little dazed and confused. In the aspect of disguise, he, who was already living his third life, was definitely flawless.

The high priest ascended the platform, with the Wind Wolf Lord standing by her side. He let out a long howl to the sky.

"Aooww—"

Along with his howl, all the Wolf Monsters present howled into the sky. For a moment, within Wind Wolf Town, howls echoed, as if a horde of beasts was about to attack.

Gradually raising her staff, the high priest quieted the howling. She looked old but within her deep, emerald green eyes, a cold light shimmered, her voice coldly pronouncing, "Today is the day to worship our ancestors. Our lineage, part of the Holy Clan, belongs to a strong and fierce race. The great Wolf Ancestor created us, allowing us to flourish. Let us offer the most delicious blood in tribute to the Wolf Ancestor, so our Wind Wolf Line may grow ever stronger."

As she said this, she suddenly turned to look at the side, below the altar were the five human youths, slaves who had not passed the assessment.

"Soiled with our bloodline but unable to awaken our clan's radiance, your filthy blood dares to overshadow our Wind Wolf Line's essence, only blood can cleanse this disgrace. Kill them!"

As if they were already prepared, the moment the high priest spoke, the Wolf Monsters holding the five human youths immediately grabbed their shoulders, exerting force with both hands, directly tearing their bodies apart. Blood burst forth in an instant, spraying onto the altar.

This scene unfolded so suddenly, as Tang San witnessed it, he could only feel a rush of blood towards his forehead, as his body stiffened, his hands clenched tight.

But just then, a shadow suddenly and silently blocked his view.

Standing in his line of sight was none other than Wang Yanfeng.
