Tang San ranks among the most prestigious disciples of the Tang Sect martial art clan and is peerless in wielding hidden weapons. The sect's elders hold high expectations, believing his future will be bright; yet Tang chooses to forsake this life to obtain the sect's forbidden lore—an action punishable by death. Now content with his ascension of knowledge, Tang sees no reason to keep on living and jumps from Hell's Peak, but little did he know that this would not be the end of his existence. In Douluo Continent, the strong prevail and the weak perish. Each person possesses an innate spirit, some of which can be cultivated and strengthened, bestowing its user with various benefits. Those born with such spirits can become Spirit Masters, a profession regarded as one of the continent's most noble. Tang, reincarnated into this strange world, knows only the life of a blacksmith's son. At the age of six, he takes part in the Spirit Master ceremony and discovers his spirit is Blue Silver Grass—supposedly the world's most useless spirit. In contrast, however, he possesses strong spirit power. Now, aided by the memories of his previous life as well, Tang's future as a Spirit Master is in no way bleak.
