Douluo Dalu: A Man of Letters, Pen in Hand, Questioning Heaven!

Su Yan transmigrates to Douluo Dalu and awakens Twin Martial Souls: the Wenxin Brush and the Asking Heaven Sword. Despite having Innate Soul Power at level ten, Yu Xiaogang looks down on him, because his Martial Souls are cultivated through literary talent. But what sort of talent can a mere six-year-old child possibly have? Yu Xiaogang shakes his head in disdain. “Without literary talent, it's a Trash Martial Soul. You're not fit to be my disciple.” Su Yan looks at the brush in his hand and smiles. Who would want a good-for-nothing like you as a teacher? No literary talent? But I have five thousand years of literary tradition behind me! Once I master the strongest brush technique, I'll receive the greatest boost! I'll spend six years building up my strength, then catch him off guard! For six years, Yu Xiaogang disparages him relentlessly, as if following his theories is the only way to become strong. Su Yan answers with a single line: “Though ground by a thousand blows, it stands firm; let the winds come from every direction!” His Soul Power, stagnant for six years, suddenly surges, leaving Yu Xiaogang dumbfounded. Years later, at the Continental Advanced Academy Soul Master Tournament, Su Yan takes the field representing Spirit Hall. Brush and sword in hand, poetry flows from his lips. “Flowers intoxicate three thousand guests in the hall; one sword chills fourteen provinces!” A boundless tide of sword energy rises across the land, cutting down every injustice!
