Chapter 73: Qian Renxue: Hello, my fiancé whom I have never met

After hearing Ning Rongrong's words, Sword Douluo Chen Xin nodded deeply in agreement.

What Rongrong said is correct; that so-called Shilaike Academy is nothing but a bunch of nobodies thrown together, and if it were really as good as they claim, how could it be stuck in a remote place like Suotuo City?

Beside him, Bone Douluo Gu Rong also spoke up in agreement.

What's more, those people often suppress the students, and even those who manage to graduate are few and far between; if you didn't come back voluntarily, we were going to drag you back by force.

Earlier, after listening to Qian Renxue talk about Shilaike's glorious battle record, they also conducted an investigation.

They found that the facts were indeed as Qian Renxue said—Shilaike is hardly an academy; it's more like a malignant tumor.

Just like one of Shilaike's graduates, Qin Ming.

He became a Soul Emperor at a young age, yet his fifth soul ring turned out to be only a thousand-year level.

Placed in any academy or sect, this would be impossible.

This shows just how pathetic and deceitful Shilaike really is.

What baffles them most is that Qin Ming still feels grateful to Shilaike to this day, believing his current achievements are all thanks to the nurturing of Flandre and the others.

Shilaike's level of brainwashing is simply outrageous, even more so than most sects.

Ning Fengzhi did not criticize Shilaike like Sword Douluo Chen Xin did; instead, his gaze swept over Luo Ye, Gu Yue Na, Zhu Zhuqing, and Xiao Wu in turn.

A gentle smile appeared on Ning Fengzhi's face as he gave them a kind nod.

Hello, everyone; I am Ning Rongrong's father, Ning Fengzhi. If you don't mind, you can call me Uncle Ning.

In this regard, however, Ning Rongrong actually minds it a bit.

After all, Xiao Wu is a hundred-thousand-year spirit beast that has taken human form, and Gu Yue Na, the Silver Dragon King, has a lifespan that far surpasses Xiao Wu's.

Having them address Ning Fengzhi as 'Uncle Ning' feels rather awkward to describe.

However, Gu Yue Na and Xiao Wu didn't really mind; since they had chosen to take human form, they naturally needed to adapt to human identity.

After exchanging greetings, Ning Rongrong clung to Ning Fengzhi's arm and acted coquettishly.

Dad, since we've already left Shilaike Academy, we naturally need to find a new academy to join, so we'll have to trouble you to get us into the Heavenly Battle Royal Academy.

Ning Fengzhi didn't speak, but inwardly he couldn't help complaining—Ning Rongrong really is his black-hearted little padded jacket.

As the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, Ning Fengzhi certainly has the authority to push them into the Heavenly Battle Royal Academy, but if their talent isn't up to par, it would damage his reputation.

Luo Ye naturally knew what Ning Fengzhi was thinking, so she smiled and said.

Uncle Ning, you don't need to worry; as long as we can get the Royal Academy to make an exception and give us a chance to enroll, that's enough.

Ning Rongrong also nodded repeatedly.

Exactly, exactly; we actually don't need Dad's help—given our talent, even if we've missed the Heavenly Battle Royal Academy's enrollment period, they'll surely make an exception to let us in.

Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi raised his eyebrows, exchanged a glance with Chen Xin and Gu Rong, and chuckled lightly.

Going by what Rongrong said, it seems I've underestimated a few of you.

Ning Rongrong raised her little face and said proudly.

Of course!

To be honest, Dad, among us, my soul power is the lowest.

Upon hearing that, not only Ning Fengzhi, but even Chen Xin and Gu Rong were quite surprised.

You should know that the reason they dote on Ning Rongrong so much is not only because this little girl really knows how to win their favor, but primarily because her talent is exceptionally outstanding.

At just twelve years old, her soul power had already reached rank twenty-six; even looking across the entire Douluo Continent, there are hardly any who can match her.

But according to Ning Rongrong's claim, these youths of similar age all have soul power higher than hers, which is really a bit exaggerated.

Furthermore, according to Ning Rongrong, they were originally all students of Shilaike Academy, only choosing to leave together after realizing something was off with the academy.

Thinking about it, Shilaike really does a lot of harm.

Over the years, who knows how many talents it has ruined.

Seeing their three reactions, Ning Rongrong introduced them proudly.

Luo Ye, Gu Yue Na, and Xiao Wu are already three-ring Soul Elders, and Zhu Zhuqing's soul power has reached rank twenty-seven.

With such talent, not only would the Heavenly Battle Royal Academy not refuse them, but even in the Spirit Hall they would certainly receive focused cultivation.

Three-ring Soul Elder?

Ning Fengzhi sized up Luo Ye, Gu Yue Na, and Xiao Wu, his heart greatly shocked.

If that's the case, then Ning Rongrong wasn't mistaken earlier; if the Spirit Hall found out, they would surely find a way to make them members of the Spirit Hall.

It's a pity, though, that they have now arrived at the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, so Ning Fengzhi naturally won't let the Spirit Hall snatch them away.

Ning Fengzhi even came up with the idea of having them join the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect.

Just like Chen Xin and Gu Rong, he hopes Luo Ye, Gu Yue Na, and the others will someday become guardian Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect.

However, this is only their first meeting, so it's not appropriate to extend an invitation outright; we can wait until their relationship with Ning Rongrong becomes closer, then naturally bring up the suggestion.

Thinking of this, Ning Fengzhi smiled and said.

If that's the case, then of course there's no problem—the Heavenly Battle Royal Academy will certainly not refuse your enrollment.

But since you've come to the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect, we certainly ought to give you a chance to be properly hosted; later I'll personally take you to the Heavenly Battle Royal Academy.

Luo Ye, Gu Yue Na, and the others went along with it gladly, without refusing Ning Fengzhi's goodwill.

After the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect's hospitality ended, Ning Fengzhi was about to lead them off when Qian Renxue, posing as Xue Qinghe, arrived ahead of time.

Qian Renxue had actually been eager to meet Luo Ye for a while.

But she restrained herself due to the diary's rules, not wanting Luo Ye, that sharp fellow, to notice anything amiss, so she endured until now.

When she learned from the diary copy that Luo Ye had already reached the Seven Treasure Glazed Sect and was preparing to depart for the Heavenly Battle Royal Academy, she hurried here.

After all, she is nominally Ning Fengzhi's disciple, so coming to visit her teacher is perfectly reasonable.

After Qian Renxue respectfully greeted Ning Fengzhi, she then pretended to be curious as she looked at Luo Ye, Gu Yue Na, and the others.

To be precise, most of her attention was focused on Luo Ye.

"Hello there, my fiancé whom I have never met."
