First, his innate soul power is inner strength, and it's not even one-tenth of his full inner strength.
Second, this person says that the size of the innate soul power is proportional to the quality of the martial soul, and he still believes that his weak martial soul must be hiding a powerful one. But why can't both of his martial souls be strong? Or could it be that his first martial soul is already very powerful, but no one noticed?
His Blue Silver Grass martial soul has awakened a second time, becoming the Blue Silver Emperor. Although he's not too familiar with martial souls, it's clear that this is no ordinary martial soul, and calling it a powerful one isn't an exaggeration.
After thinking about this, Xiao Yan has already figured out the flaws in this ugly man's logic.
His background is definitely not simple. According to the inheritance of martial souls through bloodlines, this person's martial soul should have been very powerful. But for some reason, by middle age, he has become a useless Great Soul Master.
Now, he's boasting about his theories, which probably means he's not a great person. He can only hide in this small, low-level soul master academy, showing off to a child like Xiao Yan.
Given his age, it's likely he wants to take Xiao Yan as a disciple not out of pure intent, but perhaps to experiment with his theories using Xiao Yan as a sample.
"Why aren't you speaking?"Yu Xiaogang asked when Xiao Yan remained silent, thinking that his theory had left him stunned.
Xiao Yan smiled and replied, "Master, I might be an exception. It's not as miraculous as you think."
The person in front of him was like a little clown, and he was trying to use Xiao Yan. All the respect Xiao Yan had for him instantly vanished.
Yu Xiaogang nodded seriously. "That's right, there's always an exception. But your martial soul is Blue Silver Grass, so you're clearly not the exception. In the past one hundred years, the Tiandou Empire and Star Luo Empire have seen only two instances of twin martial souls, but there have been nineteen cases of people with full innate soul power."
"I've carefully studied every one of them, and none of them had weak martial souls. The youngest of them has already reached the rank of Great Soul Master. Of the fourteen who inherited powerful martial souls from their family bloodlines, five are exceptions."
"They came from humble backgrounds but still possess innate full soul power. This is the case of a variant martial soul. Based on my research on variant martial souls over the years, there is no variant of the Blue Silver Grass martial soul. So, I can be sure my judgment is correct."
Xiao Yan listened intently, but quickly caught a few details in Yu Xiaogang's words that didn't add up, strengthening his judgment.
Since Yu Xiaogang could research such massive amounts of information, his status was undoubtedly very high. But even someone from a top-tier family had ended up in a remote town, leeching off food and drink, living like this—his aptitude might be one reason, but his character was clearly another.
This person was not just lacking in talent but also deeply flawed in character and disliked by others.
Also, martial soul inheritance relies on bloodlines, meaning children awaken their souls after six years, following their parents' martial souls.
Xiao Yan thought of another possibility regarding his own identity.
His mother was undoubtedly a Blue Silver Grass, but his father might not be Tang Hao after all.
Just now, Xiao Yan had thought about the protagonist of Xia Ke Xing and how his situation was somewhat similar, except that the protagonist was taken by a woman, while he was taken by a man.
The truth behind things could very well be that Tang Hao was jealous of his senior or his real brother, fell in love with the grass, and, in a fit of jealousy, killed the grass. Heartbroken, he took the grass's son—Xiao Yan—from the rival, not letting the rival have it easy.
This explanation seemed to clarify a lot of things, especially his daily treatment that was similar to how Cui Gu treated the protagonist in Xia Ke Xing.
Xiao Yan thought this guess was closer to the truth.
"So, you don't want to be my disciple?"Yu Xiaogang asked in surprise.
"Why would I want to be your disciple?"Xiao Yan smiled and asked in return.
Yu Xiaogang was stunned for a moment before replying, "I've figured out so many things. Don't you admire me? Being your teacher would be the perfect fit."
Xiao Yan said, "Master, you're just leeching off food and drink at the academy. If someone like you is so impressive, just imagine how powerful the teachers of Notting Academy must be!"
Yu Xiaogang's face turned pale with anger. He hadn't expected that his own words would backfire. Trying to explain now would only seem like an excuse.
With a sigh, Yu Xiaogang led Xiao Yan to the Academic Affairs Office.
Along the way, Xiao Yan pondered over Yu Xiaogang's words about variant martial souls. After thinking it over, he realized that there were numerous flaws in Yu Xiaogang's arguments.
First, why must martial soul inheritance only come from one parent's soul? Wasn't there a case with three twin martial souls?
Secondly, if there were exceptions, wouldn't studying how twin martial souls came into being be valuable?
Xiao Yan found it hard to understand why Yu Xiaogang was so confident. Why did he believe in his own theory so much?
Thinking about martial soul inheritance, Xiao Yan also recalled his own background.
Previously, some of his speculations might not have been accurate.
His mother was definitely a Blue Silver Grass, but his father might not be Tang Hao.
Just a moment ago, he had thought about how the protagonist of Xia Ke Xing was taken by a woman, but he was taken by a man.
The truth could very well be that Tang Hao was jealous of his senior or his real brother, fell in love with the grass, and, in a fit of jealousy, killed the grass. Heartbroken, he took the grass's son—Xiao Yan—from the rival, not letting the rival have it easy.
This could explain a lot of things, especially the way he was treated by Cui Gu in the same way.
Xiao Yan thought his guess was much closer to the truth.
