The Clear Sky Sect group spent about ten days on the ship before finally returning to Hanhai City. Then, without stopping, they immediately rushed towards Nuoding City. After nearly a week, the Clear Sky Sect一行人 (group) finally arrived at Nuoding Academy.
Because Bo Saixi hadn't given them the proper respect as Tang Hao had claimed, the three elders grew suspicious about Tang San's reincarnation from ten thousand years later. So, after a brief discussion, the three elders decided to test Tang San. If Tang San truly was from ten thousand years in the future, he would definitely recognize them. If Tang San couldn't even recognize them, then there was no point talking about him being reborn from ten thousand years later. Tang Xiao also thought this method was feasible. After all, even the best painters in this world couldn't perfectly capture a person's likeness in a portrait. Even if Tang Hao had previously hired painters to create portraits of their Sect Master and elders, it wouldn't be easy for Tang San to immediately recognize them at first glance. Only if he had truly met them and was quite familiar with them would Tang San be able to recognize their identities at first glance.
Tang Hao, however, was somewhat displeased. Did his big brother not trust him and his child? Could the matter of being reborn from ten thousand years later be faked? But even if Tang Hao was unhappy, it was useless. Tang Xiao and the three elders all raised their hands in agreement. He could only hope that Tang San, reborn from ten thousand years later, hadn't forgotten these elders.
However, it was clear that Tang Hao's worries were unnecessary. For Tang San, ten thousand years in the mortal realm was only a little over twenty years in the God Realm, less than thirty years. So, when Tang San, who was in class, was suddenly informed by Yu Xiaogang that someone had come to visit him, he immediately ran to Yu Xiaogang's office without thinking.
Upon entering the office, the moment Tang San saw the three Clear Sky Sect elders, he couldn't help but be stunned. The Second Elder looked at Tang San and deliberately put on a dignified expression, asking him, "Child, do you recognize me?"
Tang San nodded without hesitation and immediately bowed respectfully to the Second Elder: "Grandson Tang San greets Second Grandfather…" Then he bowed to the Third and Fourth Elders, successively calling out "Third Grandfather" and "Fourth Grandfather." For Tang San, every elder of the Clear Sky Sect was of his grandfather's generation. They were of the same generation as Tang Hao's father, so his calling these elders "Grandfather" was perfectly fine.
The three elders exchanged glances. They hadn't expected Tang San to truly recognize them at first glance, and without any hesitation. If Tang San had relied only on some portraits to identify them, they would never have believed it.
At this moment, Tang Hao opened the side door and walked out, saying to the three elders, "Three elders, what more do you have to say now? Little San can easily identify you all. Is there still a problem with this?"
Behind him, Tang Xiao also walked out and likewise asked the three elders, "Three elders, what do you think now?"
Tang San focused his gaze on Tang Xiao, then immediately bowed respectfully to him. "Nephew greets uncle."
Everyone in the office at this moment was Tang San's elder. Even though Tang San was once a God King, he had to show his respect when seeing these elders.
"Hmm… Little San, you're very good. Your father has told us all about you." Tang Xiao carefully scrutinized Tang San, finding that the child greatly resembled Tang Hao. Looking at him, it was like seeing his second brother when he was little.
At this moment, Tang San looked at Tang Hao, then his face lit up with joy. "Congratulations, Father, you have finally reached the Titled Douluo level. With this 90,000-year Thousand Catties Ant Emperor spirit ring, the enhancement to pure strength is not at all inferior to a 100,000-year Blue Silver Empress spirit ring."
Tang Hao heard his son's congratulations, but his expression became strange. "Little San, this time I did go to the Great Star Dou Forest as you suggested and wandered around the 10,000-year spirit beast area for several days. But I couldn't find the three Thousand Catties Ant Emperors you mentioned at all, so I had no choice but to hunt a 90,000-year earth dragon type spirit beast."
"Didn't find the Thousand Catties Ant Emperors? Hmm, why would that be? They should be in the 10,000-year spirit beast area; they absolutely couldn't have run into the 100,000-year core area. The 100,000-year core area is now guarded by Da Ming and Er Ming; they definitely wouldn't have the guts. Are they still hiding underground?"
Tang San's brows furrowed tightly. He always felt that something was amiss, but he quickly realized. It must be that those three Thousand Catties Ant Emperors were destined to fall at his hands in the future, becoming the three spirit rings on his Clear Sky Hammer Spirit. For those three Thousand Catties Ant Emperors, that was their predetermined fate; his father clearly didn't have that destiny. Thinking of this, Tang San could only sigh softly.
"If that's truly the case, it's a great pity. It's also fortunate that you didn't get carried away and delve deep into the 100,000-year core area to hunt Da Ming and Er Ming, the brothers. Otherwise, even you, I'm afraid, would suffer a great loss."
"Da Ming, Er Ming?" Tang Xiao now looked curiously at Tang San, asking in a probing tone, "Little San, who are these Da Ming and Er Ming you speak of? They don't sound like humans."
"Mm," Tang San nodded, replying to Tang Xiao, "Big Brother, since my father has told you about me, you must already know that I was reborn from the future, ten thousand years later, right? These Da Ming and Er Ming are my wife's two younger brothers. They are the Sky Blue Bull Python and the Titan Giant Ape, respectively, both 100,000-year spirit beasts. Their strength is extremely ferocious; even two Rank 95 Titled Douluo would not fare well against them."
"Sky Blue Bull Python? Titan Giant Ape? Aren't they the kings of the Great Star Dou Forest? How did they become your wife's younger brothers?" Tang Xiao naturally knew about the Kings of the 100,000-year core area of the forest. But now, hearing Tang San say that the two kings of the Great Star Dou Forest were his wife's younger brothers, Tang Xiao found it incredibly hard to believe.
Tang San sighed softly, replying to Tang Xiao, "Uncle, to be honest, my wife is a 100,000-year Soft Bone Demon Rabbit, slightly older than the Sky Blue Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape, and she has an excellent relationship with them. This time, I was reborn back because my wife and daughter accidentally entered a temporal乱流 (turbulent flow), causing them to return to this ten thousand years ago. To see them again, I had to be reborn, but until now, I haven't been able to find where they are."
