Chapter 107: Marriage Alliance | Negotiations

~14 min read 2,778 words

"Yu Yuanzhen's grandson versus the old Poison Douluo's beloved disciple—tsk tsk, this is truly something to look forward to," Bone Douluo said with a smile from the side. "I personally favor Yu Yuanzhen's grandson a bit more; the might of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul is something few in the entire Douluo Continent can rival."

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul possessed by Yu Tianheng is the continent's number one Assault System Beast Spirit.

Although it carries the prefix "Beast Spirit," making it number one only among Beast Spirits, when placed among all Assault System martial souls, it is inferior to the Clear Sky Sect's inherited martial soul, the Clear Sky Hammer.

But it is still absolutely a martial soul that is strong to the extreme.

Those are all battle records fought out one by one by the direct descendants of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect; it is a proven fact.

It proves that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul is by no means living up to a false reputation!

Although Yafei's martial soul, the Crescent Moon Divine Weapon, currently looks quite peculiar and fairly strong, he has always been the only one to possess this martial soul.

At this moment on the Douluo Continent, the youngest known Title Douluo is Tang Hao, who became a Title Douluo at forty-four after consuming the soul ring of his late wife, A Yin, who had sacrificed herself.

Not to mention the benefits of joining the Spirit Hall, the mere fact that the Spirit Hall has more messy business than the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect means he would absolutely not join.

As for the famous Blind Douluo Tao Ge Su Yuntao from the original plot, he wore a white deacon's uniform, representing that he was a White-Clothed Deacon of the lowest rank.

Ning Fengzhi's marriage back then was the same; although he did not particularly like that girl, he still followed his father's wishes and married her.

But on the other side.

"Fengzhi seems to think highly of this person," Bone Douluo immediately stroked his beard and said with a smile.

"It is still too early for this; Rongrong is still a child. If we wait until my Rongrong grows up and becomes a young maiden, she will definitely charm this Yafei," Bone Douluo said with a laugh.

"Oh? Young friend Yafei... a wise bird chooses its tree to nest in. Our Spirit Hall is so powerful, is it not comparable to the Poison Douluo?" Sam frowned and said again.

But if Sam were to truly lash out, he would still be very dangerous.

"Then let us wait and see," Ning Fengzhi said with a smile.

"Walk slowly, I won't see you out," Ning Feiliu said coldly to Sam, his guard not yet lowered.

Moreover, joining the Spirit Hall is equivalent to betraying his teacher, Dugu Bo.

Hearing this, Bone Douluo sighed and said nothing more.

He must be thinking in his heart that the Crescent Moon Divine Weapon is not necessarily comparable to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul.

"Forget it, I already have a master. A teacher for a day is a father for life; I will not betray my sect," Ning Feiliu waved his hand and said indifferently.

Of course, he would not do such an ungrateful thing.

It is just like talking about immigrating to Japan in a past life—it is something you never even thought about, but suddenly someone comes over to extend an invitation to you...

That would definitely be a total blowout.

Did he not expect that the Spirit Hall had actually set its sights on him?

And they even brazenly sent him an invitation to join the Spirit Hall?

Honestly, he had never thought about joining the Spirit Hall before.

Therefore, Ning Fengzhi saying that Ning Feiliu would break through to the rank of Title Douluo before the age of seventy was already thinking very highly of Ning Feiliu.

"What? Threatening me?" Ning Feiliu looked at Sam calmly, but in reality, the soul power within his body was already surging quietly, ready to strike.

Not to mention that he is the son of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Master, even his identity as Dugu Bo's student would not allow him to join the Spirit Hall.

Although everyone feels that this martial soul is very strong, compared to a long-renowned martial soul like the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon...

As a result, the win rate in high-tier matches was extremely high, leading everyone to start banning these two heroes, and they even appeared in several professional matches, completely crushing the other professional players.

"Thirteen is only six years older than seven, and this is also a responsibility that Rongrong must shoulder," Ning Fengzhi shook his head and said, "This is something one must inevitably bear to become the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

"As of now, I do favor this high disciple of Mr. Dugu," Ning Fengzhi said with a smile. "His combat experience and keen intuition are beyond what an ordinary Spirit Master can compare to... I truly do not know who he is; with such outstanding combat ability, it is as if he has been through a hundred battles despite his young age."

However, Sam looked at him indifferently and said, "You are joking. Since you are unwilling to join our Spirit Hall, I shall take my leave."

Moreover, the battle records of the Crescent Moon Divine Weapon are currently still limited to duels between low-level Spirit Masters.

After all, his true identity is a direct descendant of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and the son of Sect Master Ning Fengzhi!

This is indeed something one would not even think about in normal times.

"And his age is actually not much different from Rongrong's..." he added gloomily.

"We naturally know this, but Bishop Salas has already said that as long as you are willing to join our Spirit Hall, it is even possible for our Spirit Hall's Elders or even the Pope to take you as a disciple," Sam said with some envy.

He was unwilling to offend Dugu Bo just like that, but he was also covetous of "Yafei," a future Title Douluo with such powerful talent.

As for deacons and bishops, their status and rank are divided by the color of their clothing—white, yellow, purple, black, red—and the highest rank of bishop is the special Platinum Bishop; in addition, there are badges on their chests to distinguish their cultivation.

"Possible?" Ning Feiliu found it both laughable and annoying, especially when Sam said that their Pope, Bibi Dong, might take him as a disciple.

If you really go to a high-tier match?

He was actually very wary that Sam would suddenly lash out.

"Young friend, I have come only at the request of Bishop Salas to ask if you have any interest in joining our Spirit Hall?" Sam said with a smile.

His expression under the mask became quite strange.

"Hmm... his strength and talent are both very strong, and for some reason, I always feel that there is something about him that makes one feel close to him involuntarily," Ning Fengzhi said. "With such talent and strength, one only needs to tilt a few resources his way, and he will surely achieve the rank of Title Douluo before the age of seventy!"

This was a point that made him feel somewhat helpless.

But the original plot said he only broke through to level 92 soul power at the age of seventy-two, and then spent over a decade to reach level 96 soul power.

"You are..." Ning Feiliu frowned and asked.

If he really were to make a move here and alert the Heaven Dou City Law Enforcement Team, he would not fare well even if he were a Soul King.

Although this is in the city center of Heaven Dou City.

It is just like a game strategy; if you only "smurf" in low-tier matches, it looks very impressive, but you have never tested it in high-tier matches, so how can you say your game strategy is the best way to win the game at the moment?

At this time, everyone finally felt that something was wrong.

The strength of a martial soul must be proven by battle records; your martial soul has not yet appeared in high-level Spirit Masters, nor does it have any battle records, so on what grounds can you say your martial soul is very strong?

The Spirit Hall does the same; the lowest-level Spirit Hall personnel are deacons, followed by the bishop level, and above that are Elders, Consecrated, and the supreme Pope.

Ning Fengzhi's idea is destined to be unworkable.

He was also muddled by Ning Feiliu's reply; after all, this was the bustling downtown of Heaven Dou City.

This is also why, later on, in order to produce a child with good talent, he disregarded his wife's physical health, making her continuously give birth to one child after another.

"How about it?" Sam asked again with a smile.

"Red-Clothed Deacon of the Spirit Hall, Sam," the man introduced himself with a smile.

"However, this Yafei is a prized student of Dugu. If you want to persuade Yafei, I'm afraid you'll have to get past Dugu," Ning Fengzhi said, "It seems... Yafei is also very close to Dugu's granddaughter..."

Sam no longer stood on ceremony, and with a few flashes and shifts, he vanished from Ning Feiliu's sight.

Soon, Ning Feiliu calmed down and said, "I already have a teacher, apologies."

Therefore, Ning Feiliu's combat experience and intuition were truly not something ordinary Spirit Masters could compare to, even though many of his opponents were older Spirit Masters in their thirties or forties.

The most critical point is that the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul is also not weak in the early stages; a lightning-attribute dragon-shaped martial soul equates to extremely high burst damage combined with a powerful physique.

In the original plot, the badge on Tao Ge's chest had a total of three long swords crisscrossed, and the quantity of three represented the third-tier title for a Spirit Master: Great Soul Master, while the long swords indicated a Battle Soul Master.

People on the Douluo Continent love to use the rank colors of Soul Rings to replace so-called status tiers; for example, the Heaven Dou Great Auction House does this: white, yellow, purple, black, red. White is the lowest-level VIP, while red is the VIP with the most prestigious status and highest financial power.

"Join the Spirit Hall?" Ning Feiliu frowned.

A man dressed in Spirit Hall attire, wearing a Spirit Hall badge, suddenly appeared before him.

(I really couldn't find any signs of Ning Fengzhi being a loving husband in the original plot, so I simply portrayed him as a cold-blooded, unfaithful man who would stop at nothing for his children and had little affection for the original owner's mother. This also provides a reasonable explanation for the early death of Ning Rongrong's mother, and indeed, excessive childbearing in the feudal era would lead to problems with the mother's physical health.)

"Are you trying to play matchmaker between Rongrong and this Yafei? But wouldn't the age gap be too large?" Bone Douluo frowned; he still cherished Ning Rongrong, regarding her as his own granddaughter.

After all, the future spouse of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Master has always had the nature of attracting talented Spirit Masters for marriage alliances.

Ning Feiliu, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling separated once more, and he intended to go to a deserted corner to remove his mask and change his clothes before heading back.

However... although Sam is a Soul King-level Spirit Master and he is currently only a Soul Elder, with the two trump-card Blessing Skills 【Call of the God of Forge】 and 【Call of the God of Ice and Snow】, he might not necessarily be instantly killed!

Ning Feiliu still had the strength to fight, and he even had a highly venomous snake like the Nine-Section Jade in his Ruyi Hundred Treasure Pouch.

"Young friend Yafei, may we chat for a few moments?" this man said with a smile.

Counting upwards, those who break through to level ninety soul power generally do so around the age of seventy.

Likewise, Ning Feiliu's Crescent Moon Divine Weapon martial soul is the same; currently, only he possesses this martial soul, and it is invincible at the low-level Spirit Master tier.

Ning Feiliu was indeed a bit stunned.

Most other Title Douluo only broke through to Title Douluo after grinding through the years.

"The Spirit Hall? What business do you have with me?" Ning Feiliu became slightly vigilant and asked.

At the same time, on their left chest, there is a badge engraved with a symbol representing the Spirit Master's category, and the number of items on it represents the soul power level.

"The key is that this person's martial soul function is extremely strong; it has control, burst, and speed..." Bone Douluo was truly somewhat puzzled, "It's just that I feel his martial soul has a very similar feeling to our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's martial soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda..."

Even Sword Douluo Chen Xin's talent can be considered top-tier among Title Douluo, right? Bone Douluo even stated bluntly that his talent could not compare to Sword Douluo.

After all, Ning Feiliu gained Jax's martial arts and Sett's fighting techniques by grinding experience, although the Crescent Moon Divine Weapon is different from the weapons they held when fighting.

The officials even urgently nerfed this strategy.

He felt quite emotional; the combat experience and intuition displayed by Ning Feiliu were indeed difficult for ordinary Spirit Masters to reach.

"Very likely," Sam said hurriedly at this moment, "Young friend Yafei, you know that since your talent can gain the favor of the Poison Douluo and the favor of our Spirit Hall, then the Elders would certainly be very happy to take you as a student. It is even possible that our Pope is very fond of talent, so it is possible for His Holiness the Pope to take you as a student personally."

As for the true structure of the Spirit Hall, Ning Feiliu only began to become familiar with it after coming to this world.

After all, Jax used a long blade (before he went to fight the Void War, he hadn't used a lamppost as his weapon), while Sett fought with his bare hands.

The Spirit Hall deacon before him who claimed to be Sam was not only a highest-level Red-Clothed Deacon, but the badge on his chest with five long swords crisscrossed proved he was a Spirit Master with Soul King cultivation!

It's just that they probably wouldn't have expected... Yafei's true identity is actually Ning Fengzhi's son, Ning Feiliu.

Ning Feiliu gave a dumbfounded laugh; he didn't even know how to put it.

He was quite confident regarding Ning Rongrong; with such a cute and beautiful granddaughter in his own family, men would definitely fall for her.

It wasn't that he hadn't thought about the idea of firmly refusing to join the Spirit Hall, but rather that he hadn't even considered such a thing at all.

However, Sam mentioning Bibi Dong made him instantly snap to attention.

That was an existence that completely disregarded game balance.

"I have this feeling too; doesn't this make it even clearer that he is very suitable to join our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?" Ning Fengzhi said with a smile.

Especially since the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul has a growth BUFF of complete dragon transformation in the later stages, equivalent to the Righteous Angel leveling up to sixteen; once it grows in the later stages, it is strong to an outrageous degree.

But in reality, once one method is mastered, all are mastered; whether it is martial arts or fighting techniques, they are all skills of using one's own strengths to attack the enemy's weaknesses.

Just like the famous Gem Sword Saint strategy from Ning Feiliu's past life; before it appeared in high-level ranks and professional matches and wreaked havoc, it was only played in low-level ranks, and many people felt this strategy was just "smurfing."

Ning Feiliu finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he frowned, "Has the Spirit Hall already set its sights on me... There's no helping it, it seems the matter of forging defensive Soul Guidance Devices needs to be moved up the schedule."

Went for barbecue and came back a bit late == forget it, let's just consider yesterday a day off.
