What do you think?
Do you still like it?
It's delicious.
It still tastes like it used to.
In the past, Father liked this as well.
When you and Xiao caused trouble,
I remember I always had to
make this snack to make Father happy
so he would scold both of you less.
How is Xiao?
I went to visit him.
He looked a lot paler than before.
Haotian Sect might be retired
but
he still needs to manage
many major and minor issues of the sect.
Since you've returned,
let me go back to the sect with you.
I've let the sect
and him down.
He might not say it
but he has always missed you.
My name has been removed
by Haotian Sect.
I can no longer go back.
I'll go back with you.
Xiao and the Elder
will surely forgive you.
It's not time yet.
In the future, I will return to the sect
and apologize in my own way.
He is similar to you
when you were young.
These are the ores you want.
I only found these at Gengxin City.
They might be useful to you
in the future.
Father,
you purposely found these for me.
When you've completed your training,
come and find me at the valley.
Don't worry, Hao.
I will take good care of him.
Tell Xiao
that San is my explanation to the sect.
He is my son with Yin.
He is our only son.
San,
since your father left you in my hands,
I will surely educate you well.
As long as I can become strong,
I'm not afraid no matter
how torturing, tiring, or dangerous it is.
I will always remember your teaching.
I'm ready.
I can begin training at any time.
It's torturing and tiring indeed.
However,
it's the other kind.
(San,)
(I hope you can learn
how to control your own emotions.)
(Become a truly strong person.)
(Don't repeat my mistakes.)
This is the garden of Moon Pavilion.
Many people pass by this place.
You must hide your identity
to prevent any future troubles.
Come with me.
Every music instrument
in Moon Pavilion is a Guqin.
Every one of them is unique.
Before you touch the musical instrument,
you must make sure that your hand
has no water, dirt,
and sharp objects
to prevent hurting the Guqin.
While cleaning your hand,
the most important thing
is to calm your heart.
This is
the rule of Moon Pavilion.
Don't worry, Aunt.
I won't touch them.
These lines are made from Ice Silk
from the Extreme North.
Every string is very valuable.
Wiping the strings
is to make sure that every string
is sleek,
even,
pure,
smooth,
and clean.
So, your technique
must be light and gentle.
(Guqin Knowledge)
Guqin is known
as the seven-string instrument.
The first string
represents Earth and the Palace.
It's in sync with the four seasons.
It is made with 81 threads.
The sound is deep and noble.
It is called the emperor.
The second string represents
Metal and Merchants.
It's in sync with Autumn.
It is made with 72 threads.
It is called the officials.
The third string represents Wood.
It's in sync with Spring.
It is made with 63 threads.
It is called the citizens.
The fourth string represents Fire.
It's in sync with Summer.
It is made with 54 threads.
It is called Matters.
The fifth string represents Water.
It's in sync with Winter.
It is made with 45 threads.
It is called Objects.
The sixth string
represents the Young Palace.
It's in sync with the Literary Star.
It resists toughness with gentleness.
The seventh
represents the Young Merchant.
It's in sync with the Martial Arts Star.
It resists gentleness with toughness.
So, don't underestimate
this musical instrument.
Our ancestors used the philosophy
of Heaven and Earth, the Five Elements,
and Four Seasons to create it
so the people who play the instrument
can remember the principle of balance
where movement and stillness
complement each other
and toughness
and gentleness are combined.
San.
Do you remember what I said just now?
Sorry, Aunt.
I was preoccupied with your music
and only remember a part of it.
It's all right.
(Guqin Knowledge)
(Guqin Knowledge)
Read it once
every time you wipe the Guqin.
When you wipe all the Guqin,
you will remember everything.
Wipe the Guqin?
Yes.
Today,
you must wipe all of them clean.
This is your first lesson
at Moon Pavilion.
What?
Can't you do it?
Of course, I can wipe them.
However,
what am I learning by doing that?
Wiping the Guqin
is to train your state of mind.
Moon Pavilion is Tiandou royal family's
school of etiquette.
Noble etiquette and music
are taught here.
Since you are here at Moon Pavilion,
you must obey my arrangements.
I understand.
You may begin.
The Guqin is spiritual.
It can feel
the restlessness of your aura.
I told you cleaning your hands
equaled calming your mind.
If your mind isn't calm,
you can't touch the Guqin.
San,
today, you must wipe all the Guqin here
until they are spotless.
If you fail to control your strength
and break the strings,
I think you will be in no rush
to find your father.
Just compensate them
with work.
Don't worry, Aunt.
I know what to do.
It's not enough for a person
to only have strong abilities.
Just like your father.
He might be strong
but his mental state
is bruised and battered.
So, he hid himself in a corner
and wouldn't face reality.
Did you say the man was wearing a mask?
Our recruitment
at Moon Pavilion was going well
then the masked man
appeared out of nowhere.
He even had a scary aura on him.
That's right.
He came and caused trouble.
He is obviously
disrespecting Martial Soul Hall.
Where is he now?
I think he knows
the owner of Moon Pavilion.
He has probably gone to Moon Pavilion.
I understand.
You may leave.
Yes.
Who is it?
Aunt, I didn't know it was you.
I brought some snacks for you.
Thank you, Aunt.
You cleaned them well.
The control of your mind
is better than I expected,
but it is still far from enough.
Don't worry. I don't blame you for this.
I scared you.
I will compensate for this string.
However, I have a question.
How could you easily
remove my Demon Domain every time?
Moreover,
I couldn't feel
any movement of soul power on you.
This is my Talent Domain,
Noble Ring.
Do you know?
My soul power is only level 9.
Level 9?
Yes.
You should know that it means
I can't even have a soul ring
among the soul masters.
However, I can remove your Demon Domain.
Do you know why?
I don't.
Although I don't have a soul ring,
I can control my domain well.
Not even your father
can do this better than me.
If your father
could understand this sooner,
perhaps the tragedy back then
wouldn't happen.
What happened back then?
Your father
will tell you about the past.
If you want to become stronger,
you need to control
everything about yourself.
Especially your emotions and aura.
So, I came to Moon Pavilion
to study music
and etiquette
to control my domain?
That's right.
Soon, you will understand
that everything you learn
isn't what it seems on the surface.
What Moon Pavilion wants to teach you
is complete control
of your own emotions.
This domain
has given me a feeling
that I've never felt in the past.
If I control it,
won't I weaken myself instead?
Do your best to control it
so you can release it whenever you want.
That is how you truly
master the domain skills.
I think your aura matches it better.
From tomorrow onward,
you will learn this.
Who is disturbing my rest?
Stop it immediately.
All of you, get lost!
What is it?
(Xue Beng, Fourth Prince of Tiandou)
Yesterday, I heard from other students
about a new student in Moon Pavilion.
I'm sure it's you.
Which royal family do you come from?
Why do you hide your face
by wearing a mask?
I'm not royalty.
Moreover, whether I wear a mask or not
is none of your business.
How dare you talk back to me.
You asked for this.
How dare you hurt me.
You
You must have a death wish!
It's really him.
(Moon Pavilion)
If you can't understand magnanimity
from music,
you will never graduate from my place
no matter how good you are.
I understand.
Fourth Prince, you've skipped lessons
and slacked for many days.
Today, you argued with a fellow student.
I will
report everything you did
to His Majesty honestly.
I understand, Ms. Yue.
You can't trespass on Moon Pavilion.
I must search Moon Pavilion today.
Ms. Yue, someone
from Martial Soul Hall is here.
They say they are looking for Tang Yin.
There's no one called Tang Yin here.
Ask them to leave.
I told them but they wouldn't listen.
How dare the people from
Martial Soul Hall come
and cause trouble
when the Fourth Prince is here.
They are so lawless.
I'll go and take a look. Don't worry.
With me around, I don't think
they'll dare cause any trouble.
Aunt, you should let me go.
They came here for me.
I promised your father
to take good care of you.
You should hide for now.
Control yourself.
I'll deal with it.
But
If you act recklessly,
you'll get more people involved in this.
Who is making noise here?
Martial Soul Hall
has been ordered to find someone here.
I am the Fourth Prince of Tiandou.
If you have anything, you can tell me.
I'm not looking for you.
Ask Tang Yin to come out.
I'm afraid you are in the wrong place.
The person you are searching for
isn't here.
(Talent Domain?)
(The owner of Moon Pavilion
is extraordinary indeed.)
Whether she's here or not,
I'll know once I search this place.
Ms. Yue, I didn't expect
your place to be so lively.
Your Highness.
Brother? Why are you here?
As your older brother,
what's wrong with me
visiting my fourth brother?
Your Highness.
Why is someone
from Martial Soul Hall here?
I am Hu Liena.
I came here
to find a Haotian Sect disciple
on Her Holiness' order.
Moon Pavilion is an academy
of etiquette for the royal families.
Everyone who is studying here
is a noble.
The person you're looking for
won't be here.
Besides, Haotian Sect has been
hiding in seclusion for years.
Their disciples will never appear here.
Have you made a mistake?
Your Highness is right.
I'm sure the person is here.
This person is crucial
to Martial Soul Hall.
Haotian Sect has had a deep grudge
against Martial Soul Hall for long.
I believe Tiandou won't
get involved in this, right?
Fourth Brother,
have you seen the person she mentioned?
I haven't.
See?
The person you are looking for
isn't here.
With two princes as a guarantee,
do you still not believe it?
I must search this place with my men.
Please cooperate, Your Highness.
If I find this person,
Martial Soul Hall
will owe Tiandou a favour.
Ms. Yue,
since the person isn't here,
why not let her search the place?
I dare not disobey Your Highness' order.
However, Moon Pavilion
isn't a place in the countryside.
You can only search the place alone.
Please come with me.
What is behind this door?
You searched every other place.
However, this is my private residence.
Is the Martial Soul Hall
going to trespass on this place too?
Aunt.
Please move.
I allowed you to search this place
because His Highness asked for a favour.
Don't go overboard.
I'm here on Her Holiness' orders.
If you are going to stop me,
I have no choice but to offend you.
Your domain might be powerful
but I'm afraid
you have reached your limits.
Are you sure
you're going to keep resisting me
and force me to fight you?
Moon Pavilion is the royal family's
academy of etiquette.
I'm the person hired by His Majesty.
No matter what, I must protect
Moon Pavilion's dignity.
Someone, chase her away!
How dare you cause trouble at a place
under Tiandou's royal jurisdiction.
Stop!
Ms. Yue, are you all right?
I'm fine.
You're acting so arrogantly.
Are you trying
to make Tiandou into your enemy?
This is impossible.
I felt his Demon Domain
just now.
You're so presumptuous!
My brother was talking to you!
Are you deaf?
Moreover, the plants in
Moon Pavilion are rare.
Can you pay for the plants
if you destroy them?
I told you the person you are looking for
isn't here.
I will forget about what happened today.
You should leave now.
You can leave now.
If you don't,
I will ask Her Holiness
to give me an explanation in person.
Hold it!
Are you trying to leave
after causing trouble at Moon Pavilion?
I was just acting according to orders.
If Ms. Yue worked with me,
it wouldn't end like this.
If Moon Pavilion is not satisfied,
you can come and find me
at Martial Soul Hall.
No need.
From now on,
no one from Martial Soul Hall
can step foot in Moon Pavilion anymore.
Farewell.
I shouldn't have let her enter.
Ms. Yue,
do you know the Haotian Sect disciple
she spoke of?
Or do you have
any trouble you can't speak of?
You can tell me.
I can help you.
Your Highness
She doesn't know.
It's obvious that Martial Soul Hall
was purposely trying
to provoke the royal family.
I'll tell Father to send troops
and destroy Martial Soul Hall.
See if she is still so arrogant.
What nonsense are you speaking?
Father sent you to Moon Pavilion
to cultivate yourself.
Why are you still so stubborn?
You and Father were the ones
who asked me
to learn these boring things here.
The nerds are quite fun to play with.
Otherwise, I would've left.
If you are still so stubborn,
I'll request Father for an edict
to send you to the borders
and train your personality.
Brother, did you come here
just to scold me?
Father is ill
and misses you.
He wants me to bring you back.
Great. I'm getting sick of this place.
I want to
find the Grand Venom Master
to play with his venomous insects.
Fourth Prince is a forthright person.
There's no need to control him.
This is really embarrassing, Ms. Yue.
Father asked me to greet you.
Please tell His Majesty
to take care of his health.
I still need to manage things here.
Forgive me for not sending you off.
Someone,
send His Highness off.
Guard this place
and don't let outsiders come in.
Yes.
San.
Aunt.
You are smart.
Show me.
You are hurt.
Don't worry, Aunt.
I was slashed by Hu Liena's soul power.
I have the Blue Silver Domain.
It will heal soon.
All right.
Aunt!
Sit down.
Aunt,
how do you feel?
Your Majesty,
it's time to take your medicine.
You may leave.
Your Majesty,
you must take care of your health.
It's fine.
Last night,
I played a game with Crown Prince
and caught a cold.
Crown Prince was easily shocked
and asked me to take care.
The Crown Prince is filial.
He is an example for the people.
The Crown Prince
is worthy of your praise.
If Xue Beng
can be as good as his brother,
I would be so relieved.
Fourth Prince has been protected
by Your Majesty and the Crown Prince
so it is natural for him to be willful.
Moreover, he will surely achieve great things
after studying at Moon Pavilion.
Don't worry, Your Majesty.
It's exactly because
we have been protecting him
so we spoiled him.
He is coming back today.
I want to see what he has learned.
Martial Soul Hall
has made a mess
of the Xingdou Forest.
We must place a strict order
for soul masters within the border
to stay away from that place.
One. It's for their safety.
Two.
It's best not to offend
the soul beasts there for now.
If these soul beasts
run out of the forest,
the people will suffer.
Your Majesty is thoughtful.
However, there's some movement
at the Martial Soul Hall again.
Regarding Bi Bi Dong
using disciple recruitment as a ruse
to gather high-level soul masters,
I've read the reports.
On the surface, Martial Soul Hall
is recruiting tutors for their disciples
but in truth,
it is trying
to expand its soul master units.
We need
to plan for this.
I think Martial Soul Hall isn't the only
party we need to be cautious against.
Father,
we have returned.
Father,
someone called Hu Liena from Martial Soul Hall
came to provoke us.
She totally disregarded Tiandou.
Father, you must never forgive this.
Crown Prince,
explain.
It's like this.
Today at Moon Pavilion,
Martial Soul Hall's Hu Liena
was ordered by Bi Bi Dong
to find a disciple of Haotian Sect.
According to my investigation,
Both of them
entered the Netherworld City together
and obtained the Demon Domain.
A disciple of Haotian Sect
obtained Demon Domain at the same time?
After Tang Hao,
there's another Haotian Sect disciple
who obtained the Demon Domain.
That means Haotian Sect
is still improving its strength
even if they are living in seclusion.
Haotian Sect has lived
in seclusion for many years
but a disciple suddenly appears.
Are they trying to open the gates?
Master,
your disciple Tang San.
Where is he now?
Do you think this person is him?
Your Highness,
I've never contacted him
for a long time.
I don't know where he is now.
However,
if it's really him,
I'm proud as his master.
Haotian Sect has many talents.
There are geniuses
who are better than him as well.
So,
I can't conclude about this.
You are right.
However, everyone knows
about the grudge between Haotian Sect
and Martial Soul Hall.
I just hope nothing goes wrong.
Disciples of Haotian Sect
and Martial Soul Hall
obtained Demon Domain at the same time.
It is a form of restriction
against Martial Soul Hall.
If Bi Bi Dong finds him,
she probably wants to get rid of him.
If Tiandou
can find this disciple
from Haotian Sect,
It would be great.
Father.
Are you going to
punish Martial Soul Hall
after discussing it for so long?
Father,
the end result isn't that bad.
Ms. Yue handled the situation well.
Hu Liena did not get any advantage.
So, there's no need to worry.
That's good to hear.
Brother,
what do you mean?
Do you only think it's bad
if Ms. Yue is hurt
or if Moon Pavilion is ruined?
Keep your mouth shut.
Whether it's Xingdou or Tianluo,
both empires have a weird relationship
with Martial Soul Hall.
How can you start causing trouble
because of your temper?
Why haven't you improved
after staying in Moon Pavilion
for so long?
I want you to get out.
I
Get out!
Fine. Calm down.
I'm leaving.
You are suffering from
an internal injury and need to rest.
My soul power is too low
and I was taken advantage of
when I fought her.
It's all right.
It's all my fault.
I didn't control my domain
and caused you harm.
We are a family.
Your father handed you over to me.
If I can't protect you, what if he comes
and asks me to give him an explanation?
I will listen to you in the future
and cultivate my personality.
What happened today
will not happen again.
There's no need to blame yourself.
You were much more obedient than
my second brother when he was young.
I remember
your grandfather and your uncle
spent so much effort
to keep him in line.
Moreover, you know how to hide today.
That means
you know what's more important
and know when to back down.
A man must be adaptable.
This is a good thing.
There's no need to comfort me.
I'm not comforting you.
I appreciate you.
San,
the Netherworld City
is a very dangerous place.
It is incredible
that you can escape alive.
So, you must train yourself well
so your suffering doesn't go to waste.
Killing intent is a sharp weapon.
You can only become its true master
if you can fully control it.
I understand.
You understand,
but it doesn't mean you can do well.
From now on, I won't be lenient to you.
We must still show respect
to the Tiandou royal family.
Since you've searched Moon Pavilion,
you shouldn't go there again.
News about Martial Soul Hall
looking for him has spread.
He won't come out so easily.
If you keep investigating,
your efforts will still go to waste.
Master, but
Are you working so hard
for Martial Soul Hall's sake
or for your own sake?
I'm doing this with
Martial Soul Hall's best interest in my heart.
In that case, do what I tell you.
Yes.
Na,
I have high hopes for you.
Don't disappoint me.
I will do my best to share your burden.
Senior Dugu?
Do you have news of the Little Devil?
He left for so long
without even leaving me a message.
It's outrageous.
San didn't contact me either.
Not even you know where he is?
Is he dead out there?
Senior, you are overthinking.
San is blessed.
I'm sure he will be fine.
Since you don't know where he is,
forget it.
Senior,
why do you come here on purpose to find him?
You can tell me.
I will let him know when he comes back.
I will say
what I want to say to him in person.
(Dugu Bo came to find San at this time.)
(Did he hear something?)
Ms. Yue, your medicine has cooled down.
Why are you so tired?
Do you not sleep well last night?
You took medicine and slept soundly
last night so you don't know.
He has been playing the whole night.
He only rested for four hours
and even disturbed your rest.
I will go and reprimand him.
Wait.
He might have an average talent,
but his passion deserves to be praised.
We shouldn't discourage him
and let him play instead.
Yes.
Ms. Yue.
You are wise.
Ms. Yue, someone is
looking for you outside.
Someone called Yu Xiaogang
is looking for you.
Yu Xiaogang?
Isn't that the Soul Master Chief
His Majesty appointed himself?
Send him inside.
Yes.
I want to see San.
I don't know what you mean.
He is my direct disciple.
Soul Master Chief,
if you're here to find someone,
I think you've come to the wrong place.
Everyone knows
Ms. Yue from Moon Pavilion
is called Yuehua.
However, no one knows
that your surname is Tang
and you come from Haotian Sect.
You are San's aunt.
I'm sure you recognise this.
The Elder Token?
Father gave this
to my second brother back then.
It seems like I was overthinking.
Master, please come with me.
This is
This is embarrassing.
I must say
that his current level
can't represent the Moon Pavilion yet.
I understand.
He is not talented.
You must have had a difficult time.
Not at all.
It's what I should do for one of my own.
Then,
I won't disturb
your gathering with your disciple.
Thank you.
Please.
Other people play music for fun
but you play music
to kill.
Master?
Master!
Thankfully, I avoided it in time.
Otherwise, you would have
committed a grave sin.
You've grown stronger
and you look in good spirits.
I'm sure your skills have improved now.
However, your music is bad.
I've always been clueless about music.
I'd rather be tortured
by the experts at Soul Arena
than play music.
Master,
why do you know I'm here?

What do you think?
Do you still like it?
It's delicious.
It still tastes like it used to.
In the past, Father liked this as well.
When you and Xiao caused trouble,
I remember I always had to
make this snack to make Father happy
so he would scold both of you less.
How is Xiao?
I went to visit him.
He looked a lot paler than before.
Haotian Sect might be retired
but
he still needs to manage
many major and minor issues of the sect.
Since you've returned,
let me go back to the sect with you.
I've let the sect
and him down.
He might not say it
but he has always missed you.
My name has been removed
by Haotian Sect.
I can no longer go back.
I'll go back with you.
Xiao and the Elder
will surely forgive you.
It's not time yet.
In the future, I will return to the sect
and apologize in my own way.
He is similar to you
when you were young.
These are the ores you want.
I only found these at Gengxin City.
They might be useful to you
in the future.
Father,
you purposely found these for me.
When you've completed your training,
come and find me at the valley.
Don't worry, Hao.
I will take good care of him.
Tell Xiao
that San is my explanation to the sect.
He is my son with Yin.
He is our only son.
San,
since your father left you in my hands,
I will surely educate you well.
As long as I can become strong,
I'm not afraid no matter
how torturing, tiring, or dangerous it is.
I will always remember your teaching.
I'm ready.
I can begin training at any time.
It's torturing and tiring indeed.
However,
it's the other kind.
(San,)
(I hope you can learn
how to control your own emotions.)
(Become a truly strong person.)
(Don't repeat my mistakes.)
This is the garden of Moon Pavilion.
Many people pass by this place.
You must hide your identity
to prevent any future troubles.
Come with me.
Every music instrument
in Moon Pavilion is a Guqin.
Every one of them is unique.
Before you touch the musical instrument,
you must make sure that your hand
has no water, dirt,
and sharp objects
to prevent hurting the Guqin.
While cleaning your hand,
the most important thing
is to calm your heart.
This is
the rule of Moon Pavilion.
Don't worry, Aunt.
I won't touch them.
These lines are made from Ice Silk
from the Extreme North.
Every string is very valuable.
Wiping the strings
is to make sure that every string
is sleek,
even,
pure,
smooth,
and clean.
So, your technique
must be light and gentle.
(Guqin Knowledge)
Guqin is known
as the seven-string instrument.
The first string
represents Earth and the Palace.
It's in sync with the four seasons.
It is made with 81 threads.
The sound is deep and noble.
It is called the emperor.
The second string represents
Metal and Merchants.
It's in sync with Autumn.
It is made with 72 threads.
It is called the officials.
The third string represents Wood.
It's in sync with Spring.
It is made with 63 threads.
It is called the citizens.
The fourth string represents Fire.
It's in sync with Summer.
It is made with 54 threads.
It is called Matters.
The fifth string represents Water.
It's in sync with Winter.
It is made with 45 threads.
It is called Objects.
The sixth string
represents the Young Palace.
It's in sync with the Literary Star.
It resists toughness with gentleness.
The seventh
represents the Young Merchant.
It's in sync with the Martial Arts Star.
It resists gentleness with toughness.
So, don't underestimate
this musical instrument.
Our ancestors used the philosophy
of Heaven and Earth, the Five Elements,
and Four Seasons to create it
so the people who play the instrument
can remember the principle of balance
where movement and stillness
complement each other
and toughness
and gentleness are combined.
San.
Do you remember what I said just now?
Sorry, Aunt.
I was preoccupied with your music
and only remember a part of it.
It's all right.
(Guqin Knowledge)
(Guqin Knowledge)
Read it once
every time you wipe the Guqin.
When you wipe all the Guqin,
you will remember everything.
Wipe the Guqin?
Yes.
Today,
you must wipe all of them clean.
This is your first lesson
at Moon Pavilion.
What?
Can't you do it?
Of course, I can wipe them.
However,
what am I learning by doing that?
Wiping the Guqin
is to train your state of mind.
Moon Pavilion is Tiandou royal family's
school of etiquette.
Noble etiquette and music
are taught here.
Since you are here at Moon Pavilion,
you must obey my arrangements.
I understand.
You may begin.
The Guqin is spiritual.
It can feel
the restlessness of your aura.
I told you cleaning your hands
equaled calming your mind.
If your mind isn't calm,
you can't touch the Guqin.
San,
today, you must wipe all the Guqin here
until they are spotless.
If you fail to control your strength
and break the strings,
I think you will be in no rush
to find your father.
Just compensate them
with work.
Don't worry, Aunt.
I know what to do.
It's not enough for a person
to only have strong abilities.
Just like your father.
He might be strong
but his mental state
is bruised and battered.
So, he hid himself in a corner
and wouldn't face reality.
Did you say the man was wearing a mask?
Our recruitment
at Moon Pavilion was going well
then the masked man
appeared out of nowhere.
He even had a scary aura on him.
That's right.
He came and caused trouble.
He is obviously
disrespecting Martial Soul Hall.
Where is he now?
I think he knows
the owner of Moon Pavilion.
He has probably gone to Moon Pavilion.
I understand.
You may leave.
Yes.
Who is it?
Aunt, I didn't know it was you.
I brought some snacks for you.
Thank you, Aunt.
You cleaned them well.
The control of your mind
is better than I expected,
but it is still far from enough.
Don't worry. I don't blame you for this.
I scared you.
I will compensate for this string.
However, I have a question.
How could you easily
remove my Demon Domain every time?
Moreover,
I couldn't feel
any movement of soul power on you.
This is my Talent Domain,
Noble Ring.
Do you know?
My soul power is only level 9.
Level 9?
Yes.
You should know that it means
I can't even have a soul ring
among the soul masters.
However, I can remove your Demon Domain.
Do you know why?
I don't.
Although I don't have a soul ring,
I can control my domain well.
Not even your father
can do this better than me.
If your father
could understand this sooner,
perhaps the tragedy back then
wouldn't happen.
What happened back then?
Your father
will tell you about the past.
If you want to become stronger,
you need to control
everything about yourself.
Especially your emotions and aura.
So, I came to Moon Pavilion
to study music
and etiquette
to control my domain?
That's right.
Soon, you will understand
that everything you learn
isn't what it seems on the surface.
What Moon Pavilion wants to teach you
is complete control
of your own emotions.
This domain
has given me a feeling
that I've never felt in the past.
If I control it,
won't I weaken myself instead?
Do your best to control it
so you can release it whenever you want.
That is how you truly
master the domain skills.
I think your aura matches it better.
From tomorrow onward,
you will learn this.
Who is disturbing my rest?
Stop it immediately.
All of you, get lost!
What is it?
(Xue Beng, Fourth Prince of Tiandou)
Yesterday, I heard from other students
about a new student in Moon Pavilion.
I'm sure it's you.
Which royal family do you come from?
Why do you hide your face
by wearing a mask?
I'm not royalty.
Moreover, whether I wear a mask or not
is none of your business.
How dare you talk back to me.
You asked for this.
How dare you hurt me.
You
You must have a death wish!
It's really him.
(Moon Pavilion)
If you can't understand magnanimity
from music,
you will never graduate from my place
no matter how good you are.
I understand.
Fourth Prince, you've skipped lessons
and slacked for many days.
Today, you argued with a fellow student.
I will
report everything you did
to His Majesty honestly.
I understand, Ms. Yue.
You can't trespass on Moon Pavilion.
I must search Moon Pavilion today.
Ms. Yue, someone
from Martial Soul Hall is here.
They say they are looking for Tang Yin.
There's no one called Tang Yin here.
Ask them to leave.
I told them but they wouldn't listen.
How dare the people from
Martial Soul Hall come
and cause trouble
when the Fourth Prince is here.
They are so lawless.
I'll go and take a look. Don't worry.
With me around, I don't think
they'll dare cause any trouble.
Aunt, you should let me go.
They came here for me.
I promised your father
to take good care of you.
You should hide for now.
Control yourself.
I'll deal with it.
But
If you act recklessly,
you'll get more people involved in this.
Who is making noise here?
Martial Soul Hall
has been ordered to find someone here.
I am the Fourth Prince of Tiandou.
If you have anything, you can tell me.
I'm not looking for you.
Ask Tang Yin to come out.
I'm afraid you are in the wrong place.
The person you are searching for
isn't here.
(Talent Domain?)
(The owner of Moon Pavilion
is extraordinary indeed.)
Whether she's here or not,
I'll know once I search this place.
Ms. Yue, I didn't expect
your place to be so lively.
Your Highness.
Brother? Why are you here?
As your older brother,
what's wrong with me
visiting my fourth brother?
Your Highness.
Why is someone
from Martial Soul Hall here?
I am Hu Liena.
I came here
to find a Haotian Sect disciple
on Her Holiness' order.
Moon Pavilion is an academy
of etiquette for the royal families.
Everyone who is studying here
is a noble.
The person you're looking for
won't be here.
Besides, Haotian Sect has been
hiding in seclusion for years.
Their disciples will never appear here.
Have you made a mistake?
Your Highness is right.
I'm sure the person is here.
This person is crucial
to Martial Soul Hall.
Haotian Sect has had a deep grudge
against Martial Soul Hall for long.
I believe Tiandou won't
get involved in this, right?
Fourth Brother,
have you seen the person she mentioned?
I haven't.
See?
The person you are looking for
isn't here.
With two princes as a guarantee,
do you still not believe it?
I must search this place with my men.
Please cooperate, Your Highness.
If I find this person,
Martial Soul Hall
will owe Tiandou a favour.
Ms. Yue,
since the person isn't here,
why not let her search the place?
I dare not disobey Your Highness' order.
However, Moon Pavilion
isn't a place in the countryside.
You can only search the place alone.
Please come with me.
What is behind this door?
You searched every other place.
However, this is my private residence.
Is the Martial Soul Hall
going to trespass on this place too?
Aunt.
Please move.
I allowed you to search this place
because His Highness asked for a favour.
Don't go overboard.
I'm here on Her Holiness' orders.
If you are going to stop me,
I have no choice but to offend you.
Your domain might be powerful
but I'm afraid
you have reached your limits.
Are you sure
you're going to keep resisting me
and force me to fight you?
Moon Pavilion is the royal family's
academy of etiquette.
I'm the person hired by His Majesty.
No matter what, I must protect
Moon Pavilion's dignity.
Someone, chase her away!
How dare you cause trouble at a place
under Tiandou's royal jurisdiction.
Stop!
Ms. Yue, are you all right?
I'm fine.
You're acting so arrogantly.
Are you trying
to make Tiandou into your enemy?
This is impossible.
I felt his Demon Domain
just now.
You're so presumptuous!
My brother was talking to you!
Are you deaf?
Moreover, the plants in
Moon Pavilion are rare.
Can you pay for the plants
if you destroy them?
I told you the person you are looking for
isn't here.
I will forget about what happened today.
You should leave now.
You can leave now.
If you don't,
I will ask Her Holiness
to give me an explanation in person.
Hold it!
Are you trying to leave
after causing trouble at Moon Pavilion?
I was just acting according to orders.
If Ms. Yue worked with me,
it wouldn't end like this.
If Moon Pavilion is not satisfied,
you can come and find me
at Martial Soul Hall.
No need.
From now on,
no one from Martial Soul Hall
can step foot in Moon Pavilion anymore.
Farewell.
I shouldn't have let her enter.
Ms. Yue,
do you know the Haotian Sect disciple
she spoke of?
Or do you have
any trouble you can't speak of?
You can tell me.
I can help you.
Your Highness
She doesn't know.
It's obvious that Martial Soul Hall
was purposely trying
to provoke the royal family.
I'll tell Father to send troops
and destroy Martial Soul Hall.
See if she is still so arrogant.
What nonsense are you speaking?
Father sent you to Moon Pavilion
to cultivate yourself.
Why are you still so stubborn?
You and Father were the ones
who asked me
to learn these boring things here.
The nerds are quite fun to play with.
Otherwise, I would've left.
If you are still so stubborn,
I'll request Father for an edict
to send you to the borders
and train your personality.
Brother, did you come here
just to scold me?
Father is ill
and misses you.
He wants me to bring you back.
Great. I'm getting sick of this place.
I want to
find the Grand Venom Master
to play with his venomous insects.
Fourth Prince is a forthright person.
There's no need to control him.
This is really embarrassing, Ms. Yue.
Father asked me to greet you.
Please tell His Majesty
to take care of his health.
I still need to manage things here.
Forgive me for not sending you off.
Someone,
send His Highness off.
Guard this place
and don't let outsiders come in.
Yes.
San.
Aunt.
You are smart.
Show me.
You are hurt.
Don't worry, Aunt.
I was slashed by Hu Liena's soul power.
I have the Blue Silver Domain.
It will heal soon.
All right.
Aunt!
Sit down.
Aunt,
how do you feel?
Your Majesty,
it's time to take your medicine.
You may leave.
Your Majesty,
you must take care of your health.
It's fine.
Last night,
I played a game with Crown Prince
and caught a cold.
Crown Prince was easily shocked
and asked me to take care.
The Crown Prince is filial.
He is an example for the people.
The Crown Prince
is worthy of your praise.
If Xue Beng
can be as good as his brother,
I would be so relieved.
Fourth Prince has been protected
by Your Majesty and the Crown Prince
so it is natural for him to be willful.
Moreover, he will surely achieve great things
after studying at Moon Pavilion.
Don't worry, Your Majesty.
It's exactly because
we have been protecting him
so we spoiled him.
He is coming back today.
I want to see what he has learned.
Martial Soul Hall
has made a mess
of the Xingdou Forest.
We must place a strict order
for soul masters within the border
to stay away from that place.
One. It's for their safety.
Two.
It's best not to offend
the soul beasts there for now.
If these soul beasts
run out of the forest,
the people will suffer.
Your Majesty is thoughtful.
However, there's some movement
at the Martial Soul Hall again.
Regarding Bi Bi Dong
using disciple recruitment as a ruse
to gather high-level soul masters,
I've read the reports.
On the surface, Martial Soul Hall
is recruiting tutors for their disciples
but in truth,
it is trying
to expand its soul master units.
We need
to plan for this.
I think Martial Soul Hall isn't the only
party we need to be cautious against.
Father,
we have returned.
Father,
someone called Hu Liena from Martial Soul Hall
came to provoke us.
She totally disregarded Tiandou.
Father, you must never forgive this.
Crown Prince,
explain.
It's like this.
Today at Moon Pavilion,
Martial Soul Hall's Hu Liena
was ordered by Bi Bi Dong
to find a disciple of Haotian Sect.
According to my investigation,
Both of them
entered the Netherworld City together
and obtained the Demon Domain.
A disciple of Haotian Sect
obtained Demon Domain at the same time?
After Tang Hao,
there's another Haotian Sect disciple
who obtained the Demon Domain.
That means Haotian Sect
is still improving its strength
even if they are living in seclusion.
Haotian Sect has lived
in seclusion for many years
but a disciple suddenly appears.
Are they trying to open the gates?
Master,
your disciple Tang San.
Where is he now?
Do you think this person is him?
Your Highness,
I've never contacted him
for a long time.
I don't know where he is now.
However,
if it's really him,
I'm proud as his master.
Haotian Sect has many talents.
There are geniuses
who are better than him as well.
So,
I can't conclude about this.
You are right.
However, everyone knows
about the grudge between Haotian Sect
and Martial Soul Hall.
I just hope nothing goes wrong.
Disciples of Haotian Sect
and Martial Soul Hall
obtained Demon Domain at the same time.
It is a form of restriction
against Martial Soul Hall.
If Bi Bi Dong finds him,
she probably wants to get rid of him.
If Tiandou
can find this disciple
from Haotian Sect,
It would be great.
Father.
Are you going to
punish Martial Soul Hall
after discussing it for so long?
Father,
the end result isn't that bad.
Ms. Yue handled the situation well.
Hu Liena did not get any advantage.
So, there's no need to worry.
That's good to hear.
Brother,
what do you mean?
Do you only think it's bad
if Ms. Yue is hurt
or if Moon Pavilion is ruined?
Keep your mouth shut.
Whether it's Xingdou or Tianluo,
both empires have a weird relationship
with Martial Soul Hall.
How can you start causing trouble
because of your temper?
Why haven't you improved
after staying in Moon Pavilion
for so long?
I want you to get out.
I
Get out!
Fine. Calm down.
I'm leaving.
You are suffering from
an internal injury and need to rest.
My soul power is too low
and I was taken advantage of
when I fought her.
It's all right.
It's all my fault.
I didn't control my domain
and caused you harm.
We are a family.
Your father handed you over to me.
If I can't protect you, what if he comes
and asks me to give him an explanation?
I will listen to you in the future
and cultivate my personality.
What happened today
will not happen again.
There's no need to blame yourself.
You were much more obedient than
my second brother when he was young.
I remember
your grandfather and your uncle
spent so much effort
to keep him in line.
Moreover, you know how to hide today.
That means
you know what's more important
and know when to back down.
A man must be adaptable.
This is a good thing.
There's no need to comfort me.
I'm not comforting you.
I appreciate you.
San,
the Netherworld City
is a very dangerous place.
It is incredible
that you can escape alive.
So, you must train yourself well
so your suffering doesn't go to waste.
Killing intent is a sharp weapon.
You can only become its true master
if you can fully control it.
I understand.
You understand,
but it doesn't mean you can do well.
From now on, I won't be lenient to you.
We must still show respect
to the Tiandou royal family.
Since you've searched Moon Pavilion,
you shouldn't go there again.
News about Martial Soul Hall
looking for him has spread.
He won't come out so easily.
If you keep investigating,
your efforts will still go to waste.
Master, but
Are you working so hard
for Martial Soul Hall's sake
or for your own sake?
I'm doing this with
Martial Soul Hall's best interest in my heart.
In that case, do what I tell you.
Yes.
Na,
I have high hopes for you.
Don't disappoint me.
I will do my best to share your burden.
Senior Dugu?
Do you have news of the Little Devil?
He left for so long
without even leaving me a message.
It's outrageous.
San didn't contact me either.
Not even you know where he is?
Is he dead out there?
Senior, you are overthinking.
San is blessed.
I'm sure he will be fine.
Since you don't know where he is,
forget it.
Senior,
why do you come here on purpose to find him?
You can tell me.
I will let him know when he comes back.
I will say
what I want to say to him in person.
(Dugu Bo came to find San at this time.)
(Did he hear something?)
Ms. Yue, your medicine has cooled down.
Why are you so tired?
Do you not sleep well last night?
You took medicine and slept soundly
last night so you don't know.
He has been playing the whole night.
He only rested for four hours
and even disturbed your rest.
I will go and reprimand him.
Wait.
He might have an average talent,
but his passion deserves to be praised.
We shouldn't discourage him
and let him play instead.
Yes.
Ms. Yue.
You are wise.
Ms. Yue, someone is
looking for you outside.
Someone called Yu Xiaogang
is looking for you.
Yu Xiaogang?
Isn't that the Soul Master Chief
His Majesty appointed himself?
Send him inside.
Yes.
I want to see San.
I don't know what you mean.
He is my direct disciple.
Soul Master Chief,
if you're here to find someone,
I think you've come to the wrong place.
Everyone knows
Ms. Yue from Moon Pavilion
is called Yuehua.
However, no one knows
that your surname is Tang
and you come from Haotian Sect.
You are San's aunt.
I'm sure you recognise this.
The Elder Token?
Father gave this
to my second brother back then.
It seems like I was overthinking.
Master, please come with me.
This is
This is embarrassing.
I must say
that his current level
can't represent the Moon Pavilion yet.
I understand.
He is not talented.
You must have had a difficult time.
Not at all.
It's what I should do for one of my own.
Then,
I won't disturb
your gathering with your disciple.
Thank you.
Please.
Other people play music for fun
but you play music
to kill.
Master?
Master!
Thankfully, I avoided it in time.
Otherwise, you would have
committed a grave sin.
You've grown stronger
and you look in good spirits.
I'm sure your skills have improved now.
However, your music is bad.
I've always been clueless about music.
I'd rather be tortured
by the experts at Soul Arena
than play music.
Master,
why do you know I'm here?
