Douluo: Blade Template, Death Omen Approaching

Chapter 99 Blade: Will you bring me another surprise?

this day,

The sky was just beginning to lighten.

The magnificent palaces of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School appeared even more splendid under the morning light.

Blade, accompanied only by the Blue Silver Emperor, entered the magnificent and imposing sect. Their purpose was to conduct a brief negotiation.

Inside the reception hall of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the magnificent decorations and exquisite carvings showcased the school's wealth and status.

The meeting between Ren and Ning Fengzhi took quite some time.

The two sat on exquisitely carved chairs in a quiet space, except for the echoes of Blue Silver Emperor's voice as he spoke with him.

In fact, when they arrived at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, both sides were playing their cards openly.

They both knew some of each other's backgrounds and movements. Needless to say, Ren, with his knowledge of the original work, naturally had a thorough understanding of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's secrets.

As for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, as one of the three major schools on the continent, it possesses the greatest financial resources. Since Ning Fengzhi entrusted his precious daughter Ning Rongrong to Shrek Academy, he naturally had some knowledge of the recent upheavals at Shrek Academy. The informant stationed by Ning Rongrong's side had already reported all the turmoil and changes at Shrek Academy to Ning Fengzhi in detail.

That was the first time he had ever learned about the existence of this mysterious figure, Blade.

His name, like a sharp blade, quietly shattered Ning Fengzhi's peaceful life, leaving an indelible mark.

As for those informants in the shadows, they are like spiders lurking in the shadows, silently weaving their webs and collecting intelligence.

However, they never expected that Blade had already seen through everything.

By chance, he caught up with these hidden informants, but to everyone's surprise, Ren did not take any drastic action. He simply said a few words, which instilled a sense of awe in the informants.

Following Ren's instructions, they sent a message to Ning Fengzhi in advance, informing him that Ren and the others would come to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School sooner or later.

Ning Fengzhi has indeed looked rather haggard these past few days. Even the sparkle in his eyes has faded, and his wrinkles seem to have deepened overnight.

As his returning informants gathered more and more intelligence, his understanding of the situation deepened, and his anxieties intensified.

As Xue Qinghe's mentor in the Heaven Dou Empire, Ning Fengzhi naturally received some chilling information from the royal family.

Emperor Xueye's behavior became increasingly bizarre, and the atmosphere in the entire Tiandou City became tense and oppressive in just a few days.

This feeling is like the calm before a storm, making it impossible to ignore the impending tempest.

Tian Dou City, this ancient and massive city, seems to be undergoing unprecedented changes since the founding of the nation, and all of this makes Ning Fengzhi feel unprecedented pressure and challenges.

Although ordinary people continued to live as usual, they did not feel much about the changes in the royal family. They worked at sunrise and rested at sunset, and their lives remained as uneventful as ever.

However, for those at the pinnacle of power, the atmosphere within the Heavenly Dou Royal Family had become extremely tense in just a few nights.

Those nobles who were once high and mighty are now living in fear, like ants on a hot pan, anxious and uneasy.

They could all sense an irresistible force brewing in the shadows, like a ferocious beast ready to open its gaping maw and devour them whole.

However, they felt powerless in the face of such power, as if any resistance would be futile.

As the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Fengzhi had already made thorough preparations and welcomed Ren's arrival with the highest honors.

He believed that with the intelligence he had gathered, he was fully prepared and could calmly deal with this sudden attack.

However, the entire meeting process was completely beyond Ning Fengzhi's expectations.

He was certain that this was the most out-of-control moment of his life.

His mouth remained agape in shock as the blade revealed one astonishing truth after another, as if held captive by an invisible thread, maintaining a state of astonishment.

His face displayed a dazzling array of expressions: shock, confusion, fear, and admiration, all flashing by like a revolving lantern.

His eyes held a complex mix of emotions, including disbelief at the information the blade had revealed and deep concern about his own situation.

This meeting undoubtedly brought an unprecedented shock to Ning Fengzhi's soul.

After all, even a sect leader like Ning Fengzhi, known for his composure, couldn't help but be shaken when he heard such shocking news.

Blade's words echoed in his ears, each one like a hammer blow to his heart.

The news that the ambition to unify the entire Douluo Continent and that the Heaven Dou Empire was about to change hands was like a bolt from the blue, leaving Ning Fengzhi feeling dizzy.

His student, Xue Qinghe, was actually Qian Renxue, the former young master of the Spirit Hall. Although he had become Ren's subordinate, he still held real power in the Spirit Hall.

Even more shocking is that the royal family has been infiltrated by people cultivated by Qian Renxue over many years in a short period of time, silently eroding the foundation of the empire like termites.

And the Snow Night Emperor, who should have been the empire's last hope, was completely reduced to a puppet of others, without even a shred of room for resistance.

And that infamous Poison Douluo has also joined Blade's camp, becoming yet another weapon in his hands.

When Ning Fengzhi saw the grandeur and complexity of this chess game, he couldn't help but be shocked.

His face was pale, and his hands unconsciously gripped the armrests of the chair tightly, his fingertips turning white, revealing his inner tension and unease.

Chen Xin and Gu Rong, who were standing to the side, had been suppressing their anger while listening to Ning Rongrong's story, but they were also unable to remain calm when they heard this news.

His expression froze instantly, as if he had been doused with cold water; his shock was no less than that of Ning Fengzhi.

Chen Xin's eyes gleamed with disbelief, while Gu Rong unconsciously wiped his forehead. Although the room wasn't hot, they felt sweat involuntarily sliding down their foreheads, and their vests began to be soaked with sweat.

All these changes were too sudden and too shocking, causing even these powerful figures, who were used to power struggles, to feel a sense of panic and powerlessness.

However, Ning Fengzhi's varied expressions were not solely due to the change of control of the Heavenly Battle.

He had both anxieties about the future and deep thoughts about the current situation.

As a negotiation, the Blue Silver Emperor always conducted the dialogue in a unique way. Her style was to first deliver a heavy blow, making people feel almost suffocated in pain, and then gently offer a sweet fruit, making people feel a touch of sweetness in the pain.

After dropping those bombshell announcements, the negotiations naturally transitioned to a discussion of core interests.

Following his master's instructions, Blue Silver Emperor slowly displayed a series of breathtaking hidden weapons to Ning Fengzhi and the others, including the Zhuge Divine Crossbow meticulously crafted by Zhu Zhuqing, as well as various other exquisite and deadly hidden weapons.

Of course, more importantly, he also showed the immortal herb from the original work that could transform the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile into the Nine Treasures, as well as the management plan after the unification and the generous conditions given to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

These terms undoubtedly presented the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School with an extremely tempting contract.

When Ning Fengzhi witnessed these tangible benefits, his eyes lit up instantly, and the scales in his heart began to tip.

If the previous news of the change of ownership of Tiandou made him suspicious, thinking that hearing things was unreliable, after all, everyone at the negotiating table used both truth and falsehood.

However, when the real benefits were presented to him, and when he personally experienced the power of these hidden weapons and magical herbs, it was a completely different experience.

His heart raced as he rapidly calculated the potential benefits and changes these conditions might bring to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Ning Fengzhi was moved not only by the immediate benefits, but also because he saw the future of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and a more stable and powerful prospect for the sect in these conditions.

Take, for example, the Zhuge Repeating Crossbow, which had been modified by the blade. When Chen Xin tested this weapon, he couldn't help but feel deeply moved, even though he was a seasoned titled Douluo.

He could imagine the terrifying combat power that such weapons and equipment would create in an army that had only undergone half a month of training. It would give people the illusion that they could sweep across the entire Douluo Continent, and even top experts like Title Douluo would not dare to underestimate its power.

The Zhuge Repeating Crossbow is simple and easy to operate, requiring almost no skill to quickly master.

Its destructive power is so incredible that it leaves people speechless.

After personally trying out the weapon a few times, even a master like Chen Xin had to admit that the emergence of this weapon would completely change the balance of power on the battlefield.

While watching from the sidelines, Blue Silver Emperor deliberately downplayed the issue, saying that this was just their least lethal "toy," and that the real weapon was not allowed to be tested by Chen Xin, for fear that he might accidentally lose his life.

Although Chen Xin felt a slight insult from Lan Yinhuang's words, after personally testing a Zhuge Divine Crossbow that had been refined a hundred times, he had to admit that what Lan Yinhuang said was highly likely.

The power of that weapon was beyond his imagination; in one instance, he almost felt the threat of death.

Chen Xin's expression turned solemn. He began to reassess the strength of the Blue Silver Emperor and the Blade behind him, as well as the profound impact that the weapons they brought would have on the Douluo Continent.

Of course, for titled Douluo like Chen Xin Gu Rong, who enjoys a great reputation on the Douluo Continent, their pride and self-esteem are as unbreakable as their martial soul.

To win them over, words and conditions alone are not enough; you must possess the strength to earn their sincere respect.

And coincidentally, Chen Xin is precisely such a strong-willed and powerful individual who values ​​strength.

He said he had to fight it out himself, otherwise he wouldn't be able to swallow this insult.

He was very confident in his swordsmanship and also eager for unknown challenges.

Although their sect leader Ning Fengzhi had shown great willingness, almost to join the Blade's camp directly, Chen Xin understood Ning Fengzhi's decision.

After all, even if the Heavenly Battle changes hands, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will not only remain unharmed, but will also reap enormous benefits. As the sect leader, Ning Fengzhi naturally considers the future and interests of the entire sect.

However, Chen Xin, as a titled Douluo known as the "Number One Swordsman" on the Douluo Continent, has unparalleled pride and honor in his peerless Seven Kill Sword.

The sword that had accompanied him in battle for many years was not only his weapon, but also a symbol of his honor and beliefs.

He could not bear to see his pride being disregarded, nor could he accept acknowledging the strength of others without a fight.

Therefore, he decided to take matters into his own hands and let his sword speak for itself, to prove his worth and status.

Moreover, he was touched by a seemingly insignificant hidden weapon, which greatly impacted Chen Xin's self-esteem.

He had just heard that his beloved Ning Rongrong had been wronged at Shrek Academy, and his anger was already hard to quell.

Furthermore, the fact that he had heard that Ren was also skilled with swords, and that the Blue Silver Emperor claimed to have mastered a truly peerless weapon, undoubtedly added insult to injury.

Chen Xin's pride was like a blazing flame, burning fiercely. How could he possibly accept it?

During the negotiations, he directly challenged Ren, who had been resting with his arms crossed and eyes closed, seemingly oblivious to everything around him.

At that moment, his voice was firm and powerful. Although he said he would stop short of making a move, the tense atmosphere made everyone present feel his determination and fighting spirit.

When Lan Yinhuang heard that Chen Xin wanted to challenge her swordsmanship, she couldn't help but laugh out loud, her face showing a look of anticipation. She had absolute confidence in her master's strength.

At that moment, Ren's lips curled up slightly in excitement, and a red light flashed in his blood-red eyes, just like the excitement and madness of a hunter when he sees his prey.

now,

The afterglow of the sun shone on the very center of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, on that vast plaza.

Inside the plaza, the atmosphere was tense and solemn. Everyone in the sect, from disciples to elders, was nervously preparing, eager to witness an upcoming one-on-one battle.

Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong, three top experts from their respective sects, appeared together in the spectator area of ​​the arena.

Their presence created a sense of pressure for everyone present, while simultaneously igniting their inner passion.

Chen Xin, dressed in a blue robe, with long silver hair fluttering gently in the wind, had a handsome face and an extraordinary temperament, like a hermit master or a sword immortal in the mortal world.

He held the Seven Kill Sword, famous throughout the continent, in one hand. With his sword-like eyebrows and bright eyes, he exuded a heroic aura. He stood on one side of the arena, his gaze fixed firmly ahead.

At this moment, Chen Xin takes this battle very seriously.

This was not only a test of his swordsmanship, but also a defense of his position within the sect.

Moreover, the significance of this battle goes far beyond victory or defeat; it will influence the future direction of the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Under the watchful eyes of the disciples, Ning Fengzhi, Gu Rong, and Lan Yinhuang, Chen Xin's gaze pierced through the crowd and landed on the person opposite him who was always holding a sword whose name he did not know.

He spoke slowly, and his voice, like thunder, resounded throughout the arena, a testament to his titled Douluo strength.

"Sir, as the challenger, regardless of whether you know my background, I will first state my strength to show my sincerity!"

Chen Xin spoke in a firm and powerful voice, revealing his sincerity and pride.

"Chen Xin, Martial Soul Seven Kill Sword, Level 96, Power Attack Type Title Douluo!"

As he introduced himself, a low murmur arose throughout the square. Everyone was awestruck by the strength of this powerful figure and excited about the upcoming duel.

In response, Ren's face, which was usually as cold and emotionless as an ice sculpture, finally showed a slight change.

His thin lips curved slightly upwards, forming a barely perceptible arc, as if a crack had appeared in an iceberg, allowing a glimpse into a trace of his inner emotions.

His bloodshot eyes revealed a long-lost excitement and madness, like wolf fire in the darkness, flashing with a bloodthirsty light.

He couldn't help but recall the hammer that had prevented him from getting his fill of beating it when he played different roles.

The frustration from that time seems to have found an outlet now.

Blade's gaze pierced through the crowd and locked onto Chen Xin, his eyes still those of a hunter who had found his prey.

"How many years has it been?"

Soon, Ren's voice, filled with a bewitching magnetism, came through, deep yet clear. His words seemed to carry a certain magic, reaching the ears of everyone present and sending chills down their spines.

"Hehehahaha"

Will you surprise me again?

Blade's laughter suddenly rang out again, a laugh filled with wildness and unruliness, like the howl of a wolf in a gale, making people uneasy!
