Wu Changkong was shocked. He had not expected that Su Mo, at such a young age, would have such an astonishing level of control over his own soul power.
It is important to know that in the Douluo Continent, the most common way to release soul power is through pressure.
However, releasing the pressure requires not only the release of soul power, but also the coordination of mental power.
Even ordinary Title Douluo might not be able to master the method of attacking by using pure soul power externally, like Su Mo's.
At this moment, Wu Changkong's eyes no longer held the previous contempt, but were instead filled with seriousness.
Wu Changkong was now extremely eager to know just how far Su Mo was capable of.
After making the decision, Wu Changkong no longer held back, and his entire demeanor changed instantly.
A chilling and murderous aura emanated from Wu Changkong, causing the surrounding air temperature to drop several degrees instantly.
Even the ground was covered with a thin layer of frost due to this powerful force.
Tang Wulin and the others watching from the sidelines felt that even breathing became difficult under the influence of Wu Changqi's imposing aura.
"Is this the Tang Sect's Mysterious Heaven Skill?"
Looking at Wu Changkong, whose aura had become sharp and whose eyes were emitting a faint purple light, Su Mo pondered to himself.
Su Mo also wanted to know what was so mysterious about the Xuan Tian Gong passed down by Tang San that allowed it to stand firm in the Douluo Continent for 20,000 years.
Suddenly, Wu Changkong's figure, which was moving with mysterious steps, became illusory, and then split into countless phantoms, completely surrounding Su Mo.
The move that Wu Changkong used was the Ghost Shadow Step, one of the unique skills passed down by the Tang Clan.
"How should Su Mo deal with this?"
Seeing the countless phantom images of Wu Changkong, Tang Wulin and the others, who had just suffered from this attack, stared intently at Su Mo, wanting to know how Su Mo would deal with Wu Changkong's move.
Looking at Wu Changkong, who had completely surrounded him, Su Mo's eyes darted around rapidly, but he could only barely catch a glimpse of Wu Changkong's figure.
Of course, if Su Mo were willing to use his Sharingan, he could easily see through Wu Changkong's ghostly movements using the Sharingan's insightful abilities.
It can also be used in reverse, utilizing the Sharingan's copying ability to copy Wu Changkong's Ghostly Shadows.
But since he had already decided not to use his martial soul, Su Mo wouldn't break his promise over such a small matter.
Moreover, in Su Mo's view, the Tang Clan's Ghost Shadow Steps were similar to Zhi Shui's Phantom Instantaneous Movement Technique.
However, the illusion created by the Still Water Illusion Instantaneous Body Technique will not dissipate when attacked, and can even launch an attack together with the original body.
But the fact that the Ghost Shadow Step can achieve this effect simply by taking steps makes it no wonder that it became the Tang Clan's signature technique.

Chapter 10 Su Mo's Martial Soul
Wu Changkong was incredibly fast; after changing positions several times, he quickly lost Su Mo's attention.
After losing sight of Wu Changkong, Su Mo's body paused for a moment, almost imperceptibly, due to this brief gap.
If it were anyone else, Su Mo's subtle pause would not have been noticed at all.
However, in Wu Changkong's eyes, which had activated the Purple Demon Eye, Su Mo's subtle pause was magnified a hundredfold.
Wu Changkong seized the opportunity and used his ice-attribute soul power to condense an ice blade in his hand, slashing it toward Su Mo's head.
But to Wu Changkong's surprise, Su Mo seemed to have anticipated Wu Changkong's actions.
Using his height, Su Mo bent down to dodge Wu Changkong's slash while spinning his body, his right hand, with its five fingers together, thrust towards Wu Changkong's heart like a bolt of lightning.
By the time Wu Changkong realized he had been tricked, it was too late.
"Teacher Wu, you lost!"
Having dodged Wu Changkong's slash, Su Mo calmly spoke, his right hand's five fingers hovering an inch from Wu Changkong's heart.
If Su Mo advanced just half an inch further, he could pierce right through Wu Changkong's heart.
"Teacher Wu, you..."
Seeing blood seeping from Wu Changkong's chest, Tang Wulin, who had just recovered from his shock, spoke up with concern.
To be honest, Tang Wulin and the others couldn't believe it when Su Mo defeated Wu Changkong.
They had already experienced Wu Changkong's power just now.
However, Wu Changkong ignored all of this and looked at Su Mo seriously, saying, "Did you deliberately lure me into this trap just now?"
Su Mo nodded in agreement, “You’re too fast. The only way to catch you is for you to take the initiative and strike back.”
Seeing Su Mo nod in agreement, Wu Changkong asked curiously, "What would you have done if I hadn't noticed your weakness just now?"
Su Mo looked disgusted and said, "What a joke. If it were someone else, they probably wouldn't have noticed my flaw."
"But if even you, with your Purple Demon Eye activated, can't detect it, then I'll have to doubt whether the Tang Sect's secret techniques are really as miraculous as the rumors suggest."
After hearing that Su Mo had even considered the situation of using the Purple Demon Eye, Wu Changkong was completely convinced, "You are indeed an absolute genius, no! You should be called a monster."
This time, Wu Changkong's praise was heartfelt and without any sarcasm.
Wu Changkong never expected that the small Donghai Academy could recruit a monster like Su Mo, who not only had an extremely terrifying level of control over his own soul power, but also had such exaggerated combat skills.
In addition, Su Mo's soul power was at level 29 at the age of nine.
Wu Changkong can say without reservation that a monster like Su Mo would be the most outstanding one even in Shrek Academy, a school full of geniuses.
The thought of bringing back such a genius monster for Shrek Academy and even the Tang Sect made Wu Changkong, who was usually aloof, feel excited.
“Su Mo, classmate…”
Just as Wu Changkong was about to invite Su Mo to join the Tang Clan, Su Mo waved his hand and said, "I have no plans to join any organization for the time being!"
Seeing that Su Mo rejected him, Wu Changkong was not angry.
After all, how can a genius become a genius if they don't have a temper?
Wu Changkong believed that as long as Su Mo witnessed the Tang Clan's profound strength, Su Mo would eventually choose to join the Tang Clan.
Of course, the people of the Spirit Pagoda must not know about Su Mo.
In recent years, the Spirit Pagoda has developed rapidly, especially with the support of the Sun and Moon Federation, and it has begun to rival Shrek Academy.
If the Spirit Pagoda really comes to snatch people, the Tang Sect, which is at the bottom of the three major forces, may not necessarily be able to compete with them.
Fortunately, he was the first to discover Su Mo. As long as he acted quickly enough, he could recruit Su Mo and Gu Yue into the Tang Sect before the Spirit Pagoda could react.
"Su Mo, may I see your martial spirit?"
Seeing Su Mo preparing to sneak away, Wu Changkong quickly tried to stop him.
"Okay!" Su Mo nodded in agreement.
As long as Wu Changkong doesn't prevent him from traveling around, Su Mo is quite easy to talk to.
Su Mo immediately displayed his three-tomoe Sharingan in front of everyone. The three jet-black tomoe were arranged in a triangle with the pupil as the center.
The scarlet irises added an eerie beauty to these eyes.
Coupled with Su Mo's youthful yet incredibly handsome face, he's absolutely irresistible to all ages.
"What a cool martial spirit!"
Someone in the crowd muttered something under their breath.
"My martial soul is called Sharingan. It can add corresponding attributes and soul skills to my soul power by hunting soul beasts of the corresponding attributes."
Of course, this statement is partly true and partly false.
Su Mo's martial soul is not actually the Sharingan, but chakra.
The Sharingan he now possesses is merely a replica created by Su Mo using his and Orochimaru's research findings and employing Yin-attribute chakra nature transformation.
When Su Mo was working under Orochimaru, he used his God's-eye view combined with Tobirama's research results to give Orochimaru many guesses about the Sharingan.
Orochimaru, worthy of being called the number one scientist in the ninja world, lived up to expectations and cracked the secret of the Sharingan with Su Mo's help.
The special chakra secreted by the brain when an Uchiha awakens the Sharingan is actually the chakra that the Uchiha unconsciously transforms into Yin-attribute chakra after being stimulated.
Therefore, the Sharingan is actually a product of the combination of Yin-attribute chakra nature transformation and the eyes.
Anyone can awaken the Sharingan if they can master the Yin-attribute chakra nature transformation and perfectly integrate it with their eyes.
However, it is somewhat impossible to master the Yin-Yang chakra nature transformation through learning. In the ninja world, those who can use Yin-Yang chakra nature transformation are all overpowered.
Fortunately, Su Mo was a member of the Uchiha clan in his previous life, and using Yin-attribute chakra nature transformation had become an instinct for him.
As for where Su Mo's Yin attribute chakra comes from?
This is because in the Douluo Continent, spiritual power corresponds exactly to Yin attribute chakra in the chakra system.
In the Douluo Continent, everyone possesses mental power; the only difference is the degree of strength.
Therefore, after Su Mo transformed into a human, his first soul ring was forcibly endowed with the Yin attribute of chakra under the influence of the world's rules.
This is why Su Mo used Izanagi without hesitation when Tang Hao was plotting against him.
If the Sharingan goes blind, then you're blind.
At worst, I can just get a normal eye and then recreate a Sharingan using Yin-attribute chakra nature transformation.
For Su Mo, the Sharingan had long since become a consumable item that could be mass-produced.
Of course, the Sharingan that Su Mo recreated could only have three tomoe at most.
The principle behind the evolution of the three-tomoe gem into the kaleidoscope is still being explored.

Chapter 11 Gu Yue's Killing Intent
After listening to Su Mo's introduction, Wu Changkong subconsciously looked towards Gu Yue.
