Douluo Continent: All I Do Is Destroy Rings is Skill.

Chapter 334 Level 60, Ning Wuque Prepares to Run Away

"What were you doing just now?"

"It's nothing, just checking how much he's recovered, and he's checking how much strength I have left."

When asked by others, Ning Wuque answered without any embarrassment, and took out a new set of clothes from his storage soul tool to change into.

After confirming each other's identities, the Shrek Academy team and the Body Sect team separated and are now on their way to the rest room.

"And what was the result?"

Beibei asked, "Ning Wuque and Wu Feng were absent for the entire day yesterday. Ning Tian asked for leave and then stayed at the hotel instead of attending the competition that day."

Furthermore, they hadn't seen the three of them all day, so they knew exactly what the three of them were doing.

Even he didn't expect Ning Wuque to weaken himself like this. It was really... painless and effective. For a body cultivator, losing essence means that there is a flaw in the body. One's blood and qi cannot exert their full strength. It can take dozens of days or even longer to recover.

The specifics depend on the practitioner's blood and qi levels and their physical condition; it's not fixed.

"It's alright. At least we won't be too far off during the battle. If there are no surprises, our opponent in the semifinals will be the Body Sect. The Sun Moon Royal Academy and the Holy Spirit Sect are in cahoots. No matter who wins or loses, we will have to face two Soul Saints who haven't exhausted much energy."

Ning Wuque shook his head slightly. His judgment was not without reason. During the semi-finals, Xu Tianran would definitely tell the Sun Moon Royal Academy to give up their place, just like the Tang Sect and Shrek Academy did in the original novel.

Beibei was equally helpless in this regard, and could only say that she had been set up by the Sun Moon Empire. It was obvious that the Sun Moon Empire was setting up this competition.

However, after hearing Ning Wuque's words, he habitually asked:

"Do you have a solution?"

"No, but we can have a decisive battle with the Body Sect. I'll fight Long Aotian, and you can handle the Holy Spirit Sect."

There's no other way, but Ning Wuque could try to discuss it with the Body Sect; they'd probably agree.

After all, their secondary goal in this competition was to win the championship. They had already achieved fame by defeating two evil soul masters, Soul Saints, with Long Aotian. Even if they did not win the championship, the world would understand that the Heavenly Soul Empire was rising.

If the championship of this competition is won by the Holy Spirit Sect, which was defeated by Long Aotian and Huo Yuhao in a single battle, it will not only fail to enhance the Sun Moon Empire and its prestige, but will also make the residents of the Sun Moon Empire feel that the competition is fake.

But perhaps Xu Tianran simply doesn't care; it's just a casual move.

"Okay, I'll talk to them tomorrow. It'll be better if I'm the team leader."

"Okay, but I'm planning to leave after the match tomorrow, I'm level 60 now."

"What?! You're level 60?! How long has it been?!"

Not only was Bei Bei surprised, but everyone else also looked at Ning Wuque with puzzled expressions. How long had it been since Ning Wuque absorbed his fifth spirit ring? It hadn't even been a year at most, so how could his level have increased so quickly!

Ning Tian and Wu Feng were also somewhat incredulous. Having spent all their time with Ning Wuque, they only knew that his diligence in cultivation over the past year was nowhere near what it used to be.

If we were to create a table outlining Ning Wuque's history of hard work in cultivation, this year would definitely be his laziest year ever!

But it's understandable. After all, he has important life events to attend to, and it's only natural that he would slack off a bit after getting hooked on the sport. Even so, the amount of training he does every day is something that others can only look up to.

Training is one thing, cultivating soul power is another. How did Ning Wuque manage to break through so quickly without consuming any more immortal herbs?

"It's a secret, it can't be told, it's a secret~"

Faced with everyone's doubts, Ning Wuque stood with his hands behind his back, shaking his head and refusing to explain, because if he were to explain, it would be even more shocking.

The fact that he could liquefy his entire soul power at level 50 was even more astonishing than if he had cultivated to level 60! Especially those Soul Douluos and Title Douluos, they would definitely call him a "freak".

Ning Wuque was able to quickly rise from level 50 to level 60 because of this.

His body was already capable of automatic cultivation due to the opening of the body's barriers, and the implantation of the Life Gold further enhanced the total amount and quality of his soul power.

After all, this wasn't the first time it had absorbed the Gold of Life. Its enormous life force was almost entirely used to transform Ning Wuque's body. This time, because the Gold of Life was a fusion, it also greatly increased his soul power, much like absorbing immortal herbs.

With the automatic cultivation buff and his usual cultivation, reaching level 60 is only expected, and the speed between level 60 and 70 will be surprisingly fast.

Even without absorbing any more treasures to enhance his soul power, Ning Wuque was confident that he could break through from the Soul Emperor to the Soul Saint realm within a year and a half!

Absorbing spirit rings and breaking through barriers can accelerate his level increase. This is a positive increase that gets faster and faster as time goes on. His cultivation speed will only be further enhanced along with the evolution of his body!

But are these things things that can be talked about?

Definitely not, so even though everyone was very curious, Ning Wuque didn't intend to say much. At most, he would explain to them on the bed after Ning Tianyu and Wu Feng pleaded with him.

Don't ask why I don't just tell you; it's because life needs a little spice!

…………

Soon, amidst the laughter and chatter, today's match began.

There were two matches in the morning: the first match was between the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Heavenly Dragon Gate, and the second match was between Shrek Academy and the Royal Soul Master Academy of the Sun Moon Empire.

There's not much to say about the first match.

Besides Ning Tian's second brother, Ning Yueming, who fought a one-on-one battle with Yu Tianlong of the Tianlong Sect and won, he also left behind the following words:

"It's not appropriate to make a scene at the time. Go back and tell Old Tianlong that he'll never get my mother to forgive him!"

At the same time, Ning Yueming's words aroused Ning Wuque's interest in gossip, and he planned to ask Ning Tian tonight if he knew anything about it, such as his mother-in-law's relationship with the Tianlong Sect and the grudges between them.

Ning Yueming did not play in the subsequent matches, but chose to rest. After all, with their current score, they were not qualified to advance to the top four. So he simply let the others in the sect have some final training.

Yes, even if the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School wins this match, they will not be able to advance to the top four. The tournament format is such that advancement in the round-robin tournament is not only linked to the outcome of the match, but also, most importantly, to the total points in each match.

Unfortunately, even though the Sun Moon Empire Royal Academy lost to Shrek Academy, their total score was still a few points higher than that of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.
