Chapter 131 Returning Home
Ice Emperor blinked, not refuting, but thinking to herself: If my sister had such a support Soul Master to amplify her power during battle, the territory of the far north could probably double in size, right?
At this moment, the most shocked were none other than the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Inside the council hall, Ning Fengzhi abruptly stood up, his teacup shattering on the ground with a "crack."
"Rongrong's martial soul… how could it be…"
His voice trembled, not with excitement, but with fear.
"Wait!" Ning Fengzhi forcibly suppressed his panic, taking a deep breath. "Old Bones, you go with Uncle Jian. Take the 'Glazed Tile Token,' which can be used to mobilize all our hidden agents within the Heaven Dou Empire if necessary."
He quickly wrote down a command and stamped it with the sect leader's seal: "Remember, at all costs, bring Rongrong back to the sect safely!"
"Understood!"
Two figures soared into the sky, transforming into streaks of light and hurtling towards the Heavenly Path Academy, their speed creating ear-piercing sonic booms in the air.
Ning Fengzhi gazed in the direction they had gone, slowly returning to his seat, his fingers turning white from the force.
"Issue an order to the entire sect," his voice regained its composure, yet carried a chilling edge. "Activate all protective formations, recall all disciples and guest elders outside the sect. From this moment on, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect…enters a state of war."
"Yes!" The elders in the hall responded in unison, their expressions solemn.
They all knew that from this moment on, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect had no way out.
Tianxing Academy, training ground.
Ning Rongrong looked up at the nine-colored halo in the sky, her mouth slightly agape, her mind blank. The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda above her palm appeared uncontrollably, its body trembling violently, its nine-colored light flowing wildly, echoing the light in the sky.
Inside the pagoda, she could feel an unprecedented resonance—as if the pagoda's shadow in the sky was a projection of the origin of her martial soul.
"This...this is..." she murmured, her voice trembling.
Immediately afterward, the list of information flooded the consciousness of all those who looked up to her.
[Goddess Ranking #15: Ning Rongrong]
[Age: 14]
[Affiliation: Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Tianxing Academy]
[Identity: Little Princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, holder of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul]
[Cultivation: Level 47 Soul Master]
[Martial Soul: Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda (The continent's number one support-type Martial Soul, nine layers and nine colors; after cultivating to the Title Douluo level, it can easily support an army of ten thousand Soul Masters)]
[Soul Rings: Yellow, Yellow, Purple, Purple]
[Evaluation: Possesses the unparalleled talent of the continent's number one support-type Martial Soul; the Martial Soul quality is at the pinnacle of support-types; the only Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Soul Master in the world.]
[Although her current cultivation is still shallow, the essence of her Martial Soul has already reached strategic-level potential; her future growth space is limitless. After cultivating to the Title Douluo level, she can single-handedly turn the tide of a large-scale battle, making her a true strategic force.]
[Initially spoiled, but matures through trials, possessing a kind heart, valuing loyalty and righteousness, and holding a strong sense of protectiveness towards her sect and family.]
[Due to the Goddess Ranking's perception of the uniqueness and future potential of her martial soul, she was exceptionally included, ranking last on the list as a "Potential Special Entrant."]
[Reward 1: Soul Power level increases by five levels, breaking through to level 52 Soul King.]
[Reward 2: All Soul Rings' age increases by 500 years, and the fifth Soul Ring slot is awakened. Upon acquiring a new Soul Ring, it will automatically adapt to the abilities of the fifth level of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.]
[Reward 3: Obtain the "Glazed Divine Light" talent. When using a support soul skill, there is a 30% chance to trigger "Divine Light Illuminates All," increasing the support effect by an additional 50% and doubling the duration.]
[Reward 4: Obtain the prototype of the "Nine Treasures Domain."]
[The domain's initial radius is ten meters, expanding with cultivation level. Within the domain, all friendly units gain a 20% increase in all attributes, a 100% increase in soul power recovery speed, and a 50% increase in negative status resistance.]
[The domain has a built-in "Glazed Purification" effect, which can slowly dispel negative statuses such as poison, curses, and weakness from friendly units within the domain.]
[The domain's ultimate ability, "Nine Treasures Divine Radiance," consumes all soul power to temporarily increase all attributes of all friendly units within the domain by 100% for ten seconds. After use, the domain temporarily closes and requires twelve hours to recover.]
The moment the information imprint was completed, the entire continent fell into an eerie silence.
This silence was completely different from the previous ones—there was no awe, no fear, but rather a sense of absurdity and bewilderment.
After a brief period of deathly silence, an uproar erupted!
"Ning Rongrong?! That little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?!"
"Level 47? Soul Master? On the Goddess Ranking? Are you kidding me?!"
"Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda? Support-type Martial Soul? Shouldn't this kind of ranking select combat powerhouses?!"
"Potential Special Rank? This ranking considers potential? There are plenty of potential geniuses on the continent, why her?!"
Questions, jeers, and incomprehension spread rapidly like a plague.
In a tavern somewhere in the Heaven Dou Empire, a group of Soul Masters were loudly discussing.
"I'm at level 68 Soul Power, and after thirty years of hard training, I can't even touch the edge of the ranking! What makes her, a fourteen-year-old girl, worthy of it?!" A Soul King with a face full of scars slammed his fist on the table, shattering it.
"Just because she's the little princess of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, that's all."
Someone nearby said sarcastically. "Her background is good, her martial soul is good, unlike us commoner soul masters, who can't even catch the eye of those big shots no matter how hard we try."
"I think this list is a joke! Before, it seemed mysterious and unpredictable, but now even support-type soul masters can make it, haha..."
In a military camp in the Star Luo Empire, several generals were also discussing.
"The strategic value of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is indeed huge, but Ning Rongrong now... is too weak."
An old general shook his head. "A support-type soul master at the Soul Master level can hardly even protect herself on the battlefield."
"But her potential is real." A younger general's eyes flashed with shrewdness.
"If she can really be trained to become a Title Douluo, then she will be a nuclear weapon in a large-scale war. The Empire... should perhaps consider deepening its cooperation with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
In the council hall of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Acting Clan Chief Yu Luomian's face was grim: "The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda... Ning Fengzhi certainly raised a fine daughter."
"Clan Chief, should we..." an elder gestured.
Yu Luomian shook his head: "It's unwise to attack the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School now. The Spirit Hall is watching us closely, the Deep Sea Demon Whale threatens the coast, and the Snow Emperor has emerged in the far north... At this critical juncture, we can't afford to make too many enemies."
He paused, then added, "But we can't let them get too comfortable either. Secretly contact the Lower Four Sects and put some pressure on them. The rise of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda will squeeze the living space of all support-type Soul Masters."
The Lower Four Sects, the Elephant Armor Sect's headquarters.
Hu Yanzhen slammed his fist hard on the stone table, shattering it with a crash.
"The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda... it's the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School again!"
