Chapter 50 Expansion, Laying Out a Strategic Plan on the Continent
Chapter 50 Expansion, Laying Out a Strategic Plan on the Continent
He paused, looked at the two guardians beside him, and said solemnly, "Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, in the future, our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School should treat Blue Silver Academy and this young friend Lin with sincerity and try our best to be on good terms with them."
Chen Xin and Gu Rong exchanged a glance, both seeing the solemnity in each other's eyes, and slowly nodded.
Chen Xin remained silent for a moment.
He looked at Ning Fengzhi and spoke slowly.
"Feng Zhi, Lin Qiyue and his group are probably much more complex than they appear on the surface."
Ning Fengzhi's heart skipped a beat, and he turned his gaze to Chen Xin: "Uncle Jian, what makes you say that?"
Chen Xin did not answer immediately, but glanced at the ancient banyan tree beside her.
Gu Rong, the Bone Douluo, understood and his carefree expression disappeared. He replied, "Old Swordsman is right. You may not have a deep understanding, but he and I... have been secretly keeping an eye on things ever since we saw those girls."
He paused, a complex look flashing in his eyes, and continued, "Old Swordsman's Seven Kill Sword is most sensitive to qi. And my Bone Dragon Martial Soul also has a unique sensitivity to life force and spatial fluctuations, but... neither Old Swordsman nor I could sense any specific soul power level or martial soul fluctuations from those four women."
Chen Xin picked up the conversation, her tone solemn: "They stood there, their auras perfectly harmonious and flawless, blending seamlessly with their surroundings, as if they were part of this mountain, this water, this vegetation. If one didn't see it with their own eyes, one would almost overlook their existence based solely on perception. This control over their own aura, energy, and even life fluctuations has reached an inconceivable level."
Gu Rong added, "This kind of control cannot be achieved simply by having a high level of soul power. It requires absolute control over one's own power, and... it may very well involve a very high level of understanding of the essence of life, or even... the power of a domain."
Finally, Chen Xin uttered the guess that made Ning Fengzhi's heart stop: "We both believe that these four women are most likely... all Title Douluo level beings. Moreover, they are Title Douluo who are extremely skilled at concealment."
"hiss--"
Even Ning Fengzhi, with his calm demeanor and experience of many trials and tribulations, couldn't help but gasp and his pupils contracted sharply.
Four... Title Douluo?!
How is this possible?!
That's a Title Douluo!
A powerful figure standing at the pinnacle of Soul Masters on the continent!
The entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School only has two Douluo, Sword and Bone!
The number of publicly known Title Douluo on the entire continent can be counted on one's fingers!
But now, Uncle Jian and Uncle Gu are actually telling him that the four maids accompanying that boy who looks no more than twelve or thirteen years old are very likely all Title Douluo?!
Add to that Dugu Bo, who is already confirmed to be a level 93 Title Douluo and is completely subservient to Lin Qiyue…
Doesn't this mean that Lin Qiyue has at least five Title Douluo-level fighters under his command?!
Five Title Douluo!
What a terrifying power this is!
It should be noted that among the three upper sects, the Haotian Sect remains secluded and its strength is a mystery;
However, having been severely injured by the Spirit Hall before, he is probably not very strong.
The Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Clan only has one level 95 Title Douluo, Sect Master Yu Yuanzhen; the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan has two, Sword and Bone.
The lower four sects do not have any titled Douluo in charge.
The Spirit Hall is the strongest, and the number of Title Douluos it has on the surface far exceeds that of any other force, but the exact number is unknown.
Even so, having five titled Douluos under one person's command is enough to form a massive force that would attract the attention of the entire continent!
This doesn't even take into account the other potential resources Lin Qiyue might have behind her.
Ning Fengzhi felt a chill rise up his spine, but it was quickly replaced by an indescribable excitement and relief.
The chill stemmed from awe of this unknown and powerful force;
Fortunately, I made the right choice.
Treat each other with sincerity, take the initiative to befriend each other, and even entrust Rongrong to them.
"Five... Title Douluos..."
Ning Fengzhi muttered to himself.
"This Blue Silver Academy... no, the force behind Lin Qiyue... probably truly possesses the potential to shake up the continent's格局 (geju, overall situation/structure), and even... rival the Spirit Hall!"
He previously only thought Lin Qiyue was mysterious and worth investing in and befriending.
But now it seems that this was hardly a worthwhile investment.
My earlier gesture of goodwill and financial support were probably nothing to them!
"It seems... our previous strategy for engaging with them was too conservative."
Ning Fengzhi took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the turmoil in his heart.
"Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, you're right. We need to reposition ourselves and adjust our strategies regarding Lin Qiyue and Blue Silver Academy."
He turned around and looked in the direction where Lin Qiyue's carriage had disappeared.
"From this day forward, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will treat them with the highest level of courtesy as allies! No, not just allies... we will strive to become their closest partners! We cannot afford to neglect Rongrong's enrollment; in fact, we will proactively provide even more support! From academy construction and theoretical faculty to intelligence sharing and any resources that may be needed in the future... we will do our utmost to assist them within our capabilities!"
"Fengzhi, it's your decision. We old folks will fully support you."
Chen Xin said in a deep voice.
Gu Rong nodded: "Don't worry, we know what's important. This little guy... is definitely worth a big bet."
……
The carriage traveled back to Blue Silver Academy, and the interior was quiet.
Lin Qiyue closed his eyes and leaned against the soft cushion. Xiao Lan gently massaged his shoulders. He seemed to be resting, but his mind was already planning his next move.
Today's trip to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School yielded far more results than expected. Not only did they successfully secure Ning Rongrong as their future core support, but they also established an initial friendly relationship with Ning Fengzhi, paving the way for the future development of Blue Silver Academy.
However, this is far from enough.
Blue Silver Grass Network is one of his biggest assets and trump cards.
Currently, with the help of Xiao Lan and the power of the four 200,000-year-old and ten 100,000-year-old Blue Silver Ancient Trees, as well as his own growth-promoting ability, the Blue Silver Grass in Sunset Forest and even the surrounding area of Tian Dou City has been basically brought under control, forming a huge perception and energy network with Sunset Forest as the core and covering an area of hundreds or thousands of miles.
But this is only the tip of the iceberg for the vast Douluo Continent.
Information is key to strategic planning.
It's time for the Star Luo Empire to make a move.
"Xiao Yun".
Lin Qiyue spoke softly.
Xiaoyun immediately looked up.
"Please give your orders, Master."
"I need you to spread the seeds and roots of the Blue Silver Grass as far south as possible."
"Our goal is the entire Star Luo Empire. Its forests, plains, hills, and even the outskirts of cities... I want every inch of that land to gradually be filled with our 'eyes' and 'roots'."
"Of course, Blue Silver Grass is found all over the continent; you only need to subdue most of it."
