Chapter 36 The Fire of Gossip Burns Brightly! (Please continue reading)
"Rongrong, you seem to have a problem with that cold woman?"
Back in the room, Xiao Wu pulled Ning Rongrong aside and started gossiping.
"She's a shameless vixen. Don't be fooled by her cold demeanor; she's actually incredibly lewd inside. She's just putting on an act for others."
Ning Rongrong gritted her teeth whenever she mentioned Shui Bing'er; her arrogant and haughty attitude was truly infuriating.
"There's a story behind this..."
Xiao Wu was excited; after all, gossip is human nature, and now Xiao Wu's gossip spirit was burning brightly.
"No way."
Zhu Zhuqing expressed disbelief, saying that Shui Bing'er's cold temperament was undeniable; she was like an ice queen on a mountain peak, extremely aloof.
"Hmph, you've been fooled by her appearance. I've seen her horny in bed with my own eyes, how could it be fake? That shameless vixen stole someone else's fiancé, ugh..."
Ning Rongrong became more and more excited as she spoke, but suddenly covered her mouth, as if she realized that she had said something wrong.
"Cough cough cough! You didn't hear anything, and I didn't say anything."
Ning Rongrong explained somewhat flusteredly, her eyes darting around, avoiding eye contact with the others.
"Rongrong, what exactly happened? Tell us quickly!" Xiaowu asked anxiously.
Zhu Zhuqing also looked at Ning Rongrong with a puzzled expression, wanting to know more details.
However, Ning Rongrong remained silent, her face slightly flushed, appearing extremely embarrassed and ashamed.
Ning Rongrong blushed and shrank into the blanket.
"Rongrong has a fiancé? And Shui Bing'er stole Rongrong's man? Are they rivals?"
Wow, what a huge melon! Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing are already full.
"Don't worry, Rongrong, we'll help you defeat her and win back your fiancé."
Xiao Wu suppressed a laugh as she comforted him.
"real?"
Ning Rongrong peeked out with half her head out and asked shyly.
"Um."
Xiao Wu nodded heavily in response.
"Xiao Wu, you're so kind!"
Ning Rongrong suddenly pounced on Xiao Wu and excitedly kissed her.
"Hmm?"
Xiao Wu was stunned and at a loss after losing her first kiss.
Heavenly Dou City, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
The sun shines brightly, and a gentle breeze caresses the face, as if telling people about the special significance of today.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was brightly decorated and filled with joy, because today was not only the birthday of Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but also an important moment for him to break through to the eighth ring of Soul Douluo.
Unlike Madam Ning, who broke through by consuming immortal herbs, Ning Fengzhi decided to challenge himself and attempt to condense his own soul ring.
He was well aware of the heavy responsibility he bore as the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. However, due to the inherent flaws of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, Ning Fengzhi had been stuck at level 79 for a long time, unable to make any progress.
As one of the richest and most powerful sects on the Douluo Continent, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School possesses astonishing wealth.
Ning Fengzhi's annual earnings even exceeded the entire treasury revenue of the Heaven Dou Empire, making the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's financial resources truly terrifying.
Furthermore, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has a wide sphere of influence, with informants all over the continent, giving them a thorough understanding of the world's situation.
Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School appears extremely powerful on the surface, it actually harbors some problems.
Currently, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's strength almost entirely relies on two Title Douluos—Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Bone Douluo Gu Rong. Although Bone Douluo Gu Rong is also a powerful Soul Master, his strength is slightly inferior to Sword Douluo's. After all, the Spirit Hall's Papal Decree is engraved with six symbols, each representing one of the six peerless powerhouses, and among them, only Sword Douluo Chen Xin's symbol is the most dazzling.
The mysterious papal decree was composed of six symbols: a sword, a hammer, a crown, an incomplete human figure, a blue dragon, and a chrysanthemum. These symbols represented the core power of the Spirit Hall and demonstrated their authority and dominance.
And that sword was the Seven Kill Sword.
This acknowledges Sword Douluo's strength. As for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School...
A martial soul that even a Soul Douluo can't break through to the next level is not worth the Spirit Hall's attention, even if it is the number one support-type martial soul on the continent.
Without Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is like a fish on a chopping board.
Yu Tianming's father-in-law, Ning Fengzhi, usually felt resentful. His obsession with worldly power was a helpless act. In the original work, he gave everything, but what he got in return was desolation. Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo died, and the new emperor abandoned his old friends to lick the boots of the Tang Clan.
The daughter, Ning Rongrong, married a food-type Soul Master. In short, it's an abstract concept.
Ning Fengzhi has reached the pinnacle of his life in this lifetime. His son-in-law is exceptionally talented and has created a method for utilizing soul power that is practically tailor-made for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. As holders of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, they never lack soul power; their only deficiency is offensive methods.
Once they mastered how to manipulate soul power, they were able to unleash their own created soul skills. With the boost from their self-amplification, they became even more powerful than many combat-type soul masters. After several days of meticulous preparation, today was the crucial moment for Ning Fengzhi to break through to the Soul Douluo realm.
If he followed traditional cultivation methods, he would likely never break through this bottleneck in his lifetime. Self-condensing a soul ring was undoubtedly a risky move, considered unorthodox precisely because no one had dared to attempt it. However, Ning Fengzhi possessed unwavering determination and fearless courage. Rather than being content with the status quo and remaining forever stuck at the Soul Saint realm, he would bravely take a gamble.
The main reason is that Madam Ning is already level 89 and will soon be able to condense her ninth spirit ring, becoming a Title Douluo. Therefore, even if he fails this time, he doesn't need to worry too much about the future of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Without any worries, Ning Fengzhi naturally dares to take a gamble.
"Tianming, are you really sure there won't be any problems? Fengzhi is your father-in-law! If you kill him, be careful Rongrong comes back and comes after you." Bone Douluo was a little uneasy. After all, Ning Fengzhi was the backbone of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. If something happened to him, the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would fall into chaos. And Madam Ning's abilities were far less than a tenth of Ning Fengzhi's. To manage such a large sect, strength alone was far from enough.
"It should be fine. I've calculated it countless times, and it's always been successful. With my father-in-law's talent, the success rate shouldn't be less than 70%." Yu Tianming stroked his chin, analyzing carefully. "Moreover, my father-in-law has accumulated decades of soul power within him. Once it condenses into a soul ring, its age will probably be no less than 70,000 years."
Humans and soul beasts have different concepts of soul power. When humans reach level 99, they are considered peak Douluo and can awaken into demigods. However, soul beasts need to reach 990,000 years or even 1 million years to become demigods.
If we're comparing soul power, the soul power within a 100,000-year-old soul beast is immense, but its combat strength is already at the level of a Title Douluo.
