"Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, there are some things I can't tell you, but you must believe me. You must never think of offending my teacher."
"Not only because he is my teacher, but also because I like him very much, and even more so because he is really strong."
Chapter 139 Experience the Splendor of the Seven Kill Sword
Bone Douluo could deeply relate to Ning Rongrong's words.
He nodded in response, a kind smile on his face: "Rongrong, your worries are unnecessary. We all like Yunzhou very much!"
Jian Dou Luo Chenxin, who was standing to the side, had always heard that Jiang Yunzhou was exceptionally strong. Now, hearing Ning Rongrong say it herself, her competitive spirit as a swordsman was ignited.
Since they are like-minded people who want to pursue the ultimate swordsmanship, they should naturally challenge each other with swords, and Jiang Yunzhou is the perfect opponent for him.
A glint of light flashed in his eyes, a hint of fighting spirit stirring within him, but he knew now was not the time; he would wait until after today.
"In that case, it's settled then."
Ning Rongrong spoke lightly. In the past, she might have cared about the sect's reputation, but now, after undergoing a transformation, her mindset is different. Now, she only wants to be a jockey, and these external things are no longer so important.
As long as you give me pocket money on time, that's fine!
"Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, I'm not going to get involved in this matter. You two should discuss it with Dad. Just tell him it's my decision too, and he doesn't need to worry about my feelings..."
After she finished speaking, she muttered to herself, "If we really can't have a child with the 'Nine Treasures Flowing Tower' martial soul, then changing the name to 'Nine Revolutions Exquisite Sect' wouldn't be out of the question. Sigh, it seems I'll have to work harder with my teacher in the future to have a few more kids..."
She said this so naturally, without taking the two elderly people beside her seriously at all.
She didn't even notice how their expressions changed dramatically in an instant, alternating between red and white.
The two exchanged a glance, both seeing utter embarrassment and astonishment in each other's eyes. They could only console themselves: Rongrong's bluntness meant she certainly didn't consider them outsiders...
After muttering to herself, Ning Rongrong raised her pretty face and smiled sweetly at the two of them: "Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, is there anything else? If not, I'm going to find my teacher."
Seeing her eagerness, Jian Gu and the other felt a pang of sadness, as if a treasure they had once enjoyed alone had been taken away by someone else.
"Wait a minute," Chen Xin quickly called out to her.
He summoned Ning Rongrong here not only to ask her questions, but also to witness her evolved martial soul firsthand.
"Rongrong, release your martial spirit so that Grandpa Sword can have a good look at it."
Mentioning martial souls, Ning Rongrong immediately perked up, her pretty face full of pride and excitement: "Hehe, Grandpa Sword, you'd better watch carefully!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Ning Rongrong activated her soul power.
In an instant, the surrounding environment seemed to be painted with a noble purple hue, and a delicate and exquisite nine-story purple pagoda appeared in front of her from her palm, shining brightly.
The tower exudes a warm glow, radiating a powerful spiritual pressure amidst its noble and elegant appearance.
Compared to the Nine Treasures Flowing Tower that Ning Fengzhi evolved before, it is worlds apart.
No wonder Jiang Yunzhou deliberately reminded him back then; it turns out there was Ning Rongrong's martial soul as a shining example!
Even the well-informed Sword Fighter Girl couldn't help but gasp in shock.
His gaze was intense, as if he were appraising a priceless treasure, as he carefully examined the pagoda. After a long while, he murmured in amazement, "Incredible, truly an eye-opener..."
He suppressed the shock in his heart and asked, "Rongrong, what grade is your martial spirit now?"
Ning Rongrong raised her chin slightly, her tone filled with a matter-of-fact pride: "We've reached the top."
"Has it reached the top?" Chen Xin was startled again upon hearing this.
Ning Rongrong nodded and added, "When there's no more room to rise, that's the top. Anyway, at least you're at the god level, right? So, Grandpa Sword, have you seen enough?"
As she explained, her mind drifted involuntarily, wondering to herself: I wonder if it's possible to reach the top in other places as well?
Ugh, the teacher is so stingy, she won't let her do mental arithmetic!
Sword Douluo observed intently for a few more moments before laughing with satisfaction: "Alright, put it away! This martial soul is indeed extraordinary. Rongrong, your future achievements are beyond my comprehension!"
Ning Rongrong understood who had given her all this good fortune, and proudly said, "Of course! It's all thanks to my teacher!"
She put away her martial spirit, glanced at the sky, and said, "Alright, let's go back quickly; the banquet should be starting soon."
As if suddenly remembering something, she turned around with a charming smile and winked at the two little girls: "Oh, right, Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, when you see my sisters later, don't forget to prepare red envelopes!"
After saying that, she turned around and skipped away.
The two men, Jian Gu and Jian Bone, looked at each other with bitter smiles and nodded helplessly.
A few red envelopes are nothing; Ning Fengzhi can prepare them later.
Seeing Ning Rongrong transformed and with a bright future, and more sensible and clever than before, they felt extremely gratified, but they couldn't help but feel a slight melancholy that their precious treasure had been 'taken away'.
Ning Fengzhi took the arrival of Jiang Yunzhou and his group very seriously.
Having undergone the evolution of their martial soul, they now place even greater emphasis on it.
As the sect leader, Ning Fengzhi changed the family banquet that day into a grand welcoming banquet.
After taking the Two Extremes Tempering Pill given to him by Jiang Yunzhou, Ning Fengzhi couldn't wait to leave that very night to obtain a Soul Ring, as soon as the banquet ended.
When he returned the next day, his soul power was surging, and he was already an 88th level Soul Fighter!
Relying on the residual medicinal effects of the immortal herb and the profound soul power he had accumulated over the years, after breaking through the level limit, his soul power growth was truly like a rocket, unstoppable and simply unstoppable.
Therefore, a second banquet was held immediately afterward to celebrate Ning Fengzhi's successful promotion to Soul Fighter.
From now on, the Seven Treasures Wandering Sect may be able to change its name!
Jiang Yunzhou originally intended to return home after delivering the congratulatory gifts, but he did not expect to be 'forcibly controlled' in the Seven Treasures Wandering Sect for several days.
Moreover, before he left, he received a sparring invitation from Sword Fighter Girl.
Sword Fighter Girl, who has always pursued the ultimate swordsmanship, had already kept in mind the idea of sparring with Jiang Yunzhou.
Today, he finally found his opportunity, and his wish came true.
Seven Treasures Flowing Away Sect, Martial Arts Arena.
On the sidelines, there were only a handful of spectators, including Gu Douluo and Ning Fengzhi, and the few people Jiang Yunzhou brought.
Even Gu Douluo was a strong advocate for this competition. He was extremely looking forward to seeing how his old friend would deal with Jiang Yunzhou's shameless soul skill.
At this moment, the two people in the arena were already in position.
Jiang Yunzhou, dressed in a well-fitting black outfit, stood tall and straight like a pine tree, his expression calm and composed.
On the other side, the Sword Fighter Luo was dressed in white, wielding the Seven Kill Sword, with eyes as sharp as a hawk, and her sword aura was hidden from view.
"Young friend Yunzhou, I am now level 96, a Super Douluo. You'd better watch out from now on."
Chen Xin stood with his hands behind his back, and out of respect for his seniority, he still offered a word of advice.
Jiang Yunzhou remained calm, with the faint shadow of sword grass swaying behind him: "Senior Sword Fighting Luo, please go ahead and do your thing. This junior also wants to experience the splendor of the Seven Kill Sword."
Chapter 140 Go back and quickly have more daughters!
"Very well! Then I won't stand on ceremony!"
Even so, Chen Xin still did not use his full strength, and only tested the waters at the beginning.
His first spirit ring suddenly lit up, and a condensed golden sword aura burst forth from the Seven Kill Sword, swift as a startled swan, piercing straight at Jiang Yunzhou's face.
"First Soul Skill: Longsword Strike!"
Jiang Yunzhou's eyes narrowed slightly. Instead of retreating, he advanced. The sword grass phantom behind him solidified instantly, and the first black soul ring shone brightly.
"First Soul Skill: Azure Leaf Sky Split!"
A streak of cyan sword energy swept out diagonally, its trajectory unpredictable. It deftly bypassed the golden sword energy in mid-air and struck Chen Xin's left shoulder directly.
"Hiss... Black! A black first spirit ring?"
Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, somewhat losing his composure.
He abruptly turned to Bone Douluo, "Uncle Bone, I remember the last time he sparred with you, wasn't he..."
Bone Douluo was equally astonished, shaking her head and laughing, "Back then it was four purple and three black... This kid has quite a few secrets!"
Not only the two of them, but also Ning Rongrong, Zhu Zhuqing, Xiao Wu and others who were closest to them, all opened their beautiful eyes wide and their mouths slightly open.
Although they knew their teacher was unfathomable, they were not quite clear about her spirit ring configuration, and were thus stunned.
Zhu Zhuqing's eyes flickered slightly, and the vague guess in her mind became clearer, but she remained silent, burying her guess in her heart.
After all, she was the first one to stay by Jiang Yunzhou's side and had seen his initial soul ring configuration.
She also noticed that after each time the teacher accepted a student...
Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu exchanged a glance, both seeing shock and intense curiosity in each other's eyes.
They weren't fools either; naturally, they wouldn't discuss Jiang Yunzhou's secrets in public, and tacitly chose to suppress their questions for the time being.
In any case, the teachers' strength will only make them feel proud.
Alan silently observed the three women's expressions, and seeing that they quickly returned to normal, she suppressed her desire to ask questions.
Some secrets, perhaps, can be revealed after one enters the path of enlightenment.
A flicker of surprise crossed Chen Xin's eyes: "A black spirit ring?"
Despite his doubts, he had no time to be distracted at the moment. His second soul ring lit up immediately, and a ring of sword energy instantly formed a golden barrier in front of him.
"The second soul skill: Spirit Sword Guard!"
"laugh--!"
The green sword energy struck the barrier, producing a piercing tearing sound, and the surface of the golden barrier was instantly covered with spiderweb-like cracks.
Chen Xin was not angry but pleased, praising, "What a fine armor-piercing tear! Young friend's sword style is unpredictable and fierce, quite different from my Seven Kill Sword, which is truly surprising."
"Senior, you are too kind."
Jiang Yunzhou flicked his wrist, and a second black spirit ring behind him shone brightly. "Second Spirit Skill: Thousand Shadows of Leaves!"
“That’s the second one.” Ning Fengzhi counted subconsciously from the sidelines.
In an instant, hundreds of emerald green sword-shaped phantoms appeared out of thin air, surrounding Jiang Yunzhou like stars around the moon.
Sometimes they coalesce into shields to block attacks from the air; other times they transform into streaks of azure light, actively shooting towards Chen Xin with relentless attacks.
Chen Xinchang swung his sword to parry, and his third soul ring lit up. A pair of golden wings unfolded from behind him, lifting him gracefully into the air—this was the 'Sword Wings Soaring' technique.
