Chapter 109: Gathering of the Dignitaries
Ning Feiliu was not boasting; his confidence came from his track record in Spirit Fighting battles during this period.
At the same time, it also came from his familiarity with the original plot.
To be honest... Yu Tianheng was just so-so in the original plot.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul is formidable, but it is only slightly superior to Dai Mubai's.
Not to mention compared to Tang San.
Yu Tianheng would not be a very strong opponent; the key was that his soul power was just the same as Ning Feiliu's.
If his soul power were level 39, Ning Feiliu might not be able to be so confident.
But with only the same level 33 soul power, for Ning Feiliu, who had already defeated a level 39 Soul Elder, was there any need to be afraid?
That would be a bit too ridiculous.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial soul is strong, but not strong enough for a single martial soul to bridge a six-level gap in soul power.
And since Ning Feiliu could defeat a level 39 Soul Elder, it was no stretch to say that, rounding up, he was currently equivalent to a level 39 Soul Elder.
So, naturally, he would not take Yu Tianheng seriously.
Dugu Bo felt a bit helpless about this, but for some reason, he also vaguely believed in Ning Feiliu's confidence deep down.
After all, this kid had already accomplished many incredible things.
The things Ning Feiliu had done before were far more incredible than being able to defeat a Young Sect Master of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect of the same level like Yu Tianheng.
But he still gave a cold snort and said stubbornly, "Kid! I will go watch your match in person. If you lose, it will be my face as your teacher that gets lost, so don't you dare embarrass me!"
"Rest assured, Teacher," Ning Feiliu chuckled and said, "I will make your reputation as a teacher resound throughout all of Heaven Dou City."
The better the talent and strength he and Dugu Yan displayed, the more renowned Dugu Bo's name would become.
Just like the time Ning Fengzhi misunderstood, in the eyes of outsiders, if Ning Feiliu and Dugu Yan could have such strength at a young age, it must be Dugu Bo's credit.
Could it possibly be the credit of Ning Feiliu and Dugu Yan themselves?
Especially Dugu Bo's Poison Study and Pharmacology, which were peerless and famous across the Douluo Dalu.
"Hmph! I hope so! But you kid, you still need to pay attention to your cultivation. It's been so long and I've rarely seen you cultivate," Dugu Bo snorted coldly again and exhorted, "Although there is no upper limit to the path of medicine, strength is the fundamental way in the Douluo Continent."
During this time, in order to complete the task for the Mysterious Water Pill, plus the series of tasks at the Spirit Fighting Arena during the day, Ning Feiliu basically had no time to cultivate.
And he was also currently worried that the Destructive Power absorbed by the Sunlight Breathing Method in his body would become uncontrollable, so he didn't dare to cultivate even when he had free time during the day.
At night, he was busy with the task for the Mysterious Water Pill.
But he didn't care much; if he could get the prescription for the Mysterious Water Pill, as well as obtain the Calm Rune and more martial arts experience from Jax, that would be far more useful than increasing his soul power by a level or two in the short term.
"I know, Teacher," Ning Feiliu smiled slightly, then continued to immerse himself in his experimental research.
Dugu Bo shook his head, feeling somewhat helpless.
But he also knew that Ning Feiliu was unlikely to give up eating for fear of choking, so he could only choose to trust him for now.
Time passed bit by bit, but for the dignitaries of Heaven Dou City, the most anticipated event in these past few days was the Spirit Fighting battle between Dugu Bo's student "Yafei" and Yu Tianheng!
Both of them had a Title Douluo behind them.
The Poison Douluo Dugu Bo, and the Thunder Douluo Yu Yuanzhen!
One was the student of the Poison Douluo, the other was the designated direct grandson of the Thunder Douluo.
The contest between them was no longer as simple as a battle at the Soul Elder level.
It vaguely represented a battle between two Title Douluos!
It represented the face of two Title Douluos!
And today was the day both sides held their "Spirit Fighting battle"!
Before this, the Heaven Dou Great Spirit Arena had prepared 30,000 tickets, all of which were sold out.
The most critical ones were the high-end VIP seats and the supreme VIP boxes!
Those twelve supreme VIP boxes were all booked in advance by the dignitaries of Heaven Dou City.
The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's Vice Sect Master Yu Luomian, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect Master Ning Fengzhi and the accompanying Sword and Bone duo, Poison Douluo Dugu Bo and his granddaughter, Crown Prince Xue Qinghe and Princess Xue Ke, Wuhun Holy Hall Platinum Bishop Salas, Imperial Prince Xue Xing and the Fourth Prince Xue Beng, Nine Heart Begonia Ye Family head Ye Tianxin, Imperial Marshal Ge Long, Moon Pavilion Master Tang Yuehua, the three committee members of the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, Strength Clan patriarch Titan, and so on...
It could be said that almost all the big shots with status in Heaven Dou City had come.
Setting aside the forces behind the two combatants, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect and Dugu Bo, everyone else was just here to watch the show.
Naturally, they were also very curious about who would be superior, Yu Tianheng or Ning Feiliu.
Heaven Dou Great Spirit Arena, supreme VIP box.
Dugu Bo was leading Dugu Yan, slowly arriving in front of the booked box, intending to prepare to enter and watch the match.
But just at this moment...
"Mr. Dugu." A voice that made one feel like they were bathed in a spring breeze came from the side.
Dugu Bo looked over and saw it was Ning Fengzhi, who was walking toward him with the Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, as well as his beloved daughter Ning Rongrong.
Generally speaking, if there were no accidents, the Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo would have one guarding the sect while the other traveled with Ning Fengzhi.
For example, in the Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament in the original plot, Ning Fengzhi only brought the Sword Douluo, while the Bone Douluo guarded the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.
The purpose was, of course, to prevent someone from stealing their home.
But later, their home was still stolen, and it happened when all three of the Sword, Bone, and Tower were present, stolen right in front of their faces.
It seemed that both the Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo were quite curious about this contest, so they both followed along.
"So it is Sect Master Ning, and you two rascals Chen Xin and Gu Rong," Dugu Bo said with a smile.
He didn't have much friendship with Chen Xin; after all, the Sword Douluo was actually quite cold, and it was only because he was so familiar with the Bone Douluo that the two of them would bicker.
The Bone Douluo's personality was instead outgoing; he would always call Dugu Bo "Old Poison Freak" directly in public without giving him any face.
"Old Poison Freak, you are truly blessed to have taken in such an outstanding student," the Bone Douluo also laughed loudly and said.
However, Dugu Bo just looked at them and gave a strange laugh, saying, "That goes without saying, my blessing... is too good, something your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect can't envy."
Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo all felt there was more to his words, yet they could not figure out exactly what he meant.
"Mr. Dugu's luck is truly something we cannot help but envy," Ning Fengzhi said with a smile, "However, as mentioned last time, you are welcome to come over for a casual cup of tea whenever you have the time, Mr. Dugu."
"There will be a chance, there will certainly be a chance," Dugu Bo said, a strange glint flashing in his eyes once more, though he spoke with a bit more courtesy.
Beside him, Dugu Yan listened to these words and could not help but begin to fantasize.
Yes... when the time comes, I must formally visit Ning Feiliu's father at his home.
