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

The stance is like a tiger, the posture like a pine tree.

In one afternoon, Ning Wuque, having finished his stance training, first did more than three hundred pull-ups.

He climbed directly onto the branches of a large tree next to him with his hands and feet, then began his training exercise more than two meters off the ground without any protective measures.

Train until you drop dead, or even risk a fatal fall to stimulate your body's limitless potential, allowing it to unleash even greater potential under the threat of death!

Anyway, even if you get a head injury from such a small fall, it's not a big deal within the sect. You can just find a sixth-ring healing-type Soul Emperor to heal you, and he'll be exactly the same as the original!

After collapsing to the ground in exhaustion once again, Ning Wuque got up and treated himself briefly to regain some strength. Then, he used his standing posture to further channel the soul power within his body.

He stood straight between two large trees, like a pine tree, pretending to be a tree and remaining motionless for more than an hour.

He wouldn't even flinch when mosquitoes crawled on his skin and sucked his blood.

Only an iron will can lead him forward in this cursed world!

"Ring ring~~"

The school bell echoed in my ears.

Almost instantly, an old man dressed in a simple black cloak appeared in Ning Wuque's field of vision.

It was his grandfather, Zhang Can. As he slowly walked over, his eyes held a mixture of relief, heartache, and deep regret as he looked at Ning Wuque.

He felt sorry that such a smart and hardworking child as Ning Wuque was not given a better starting point by heaven and had to suffer so much for no reason!

"Wuque, come on, let's go home. I've already asked about that thing you mentioned to me last time. I'll give you a surprise when we get back."

Zhang Can came to Ning Wuque's side and reached out his large, calloused hand to stroke the other's forehead.

Feeling the sweat on his hands, a resolute glint flashed in his eyes, as if he had made some decision in his heart.

In about seven months, it will be Ning Wuque's seventh birthday, which is April 7th next year, a... not particularly auspicious day.

"Um!"

After ending his standing posture, Ning Wuque first let out a sigh of relief before replying.

Thus, the grandfather and grandson left the academy's playground hand in hand and headed towards Zhang Can's elder's villa.

On the way, Ning Wuque was filled with excitement and anticipation.

There was no other reason than what Zhang Can had just said, which meant that the matter he had asked Grandpa Zhang to help him with had been settled!

As we all know, physical training is not a process that can be done blindly. It requires eating well, drinking well, and taking good care of oneself in order to continuously climb higher without harming one's body's fundamental structure!

But! Each of these things costs money, a lot of money!

Ning Wuque had calculated that the inheritance his parents left him would only last until he was about thirteen or fourteen years old. This included the necessary high-quality food and herbs every day, and would increase exponentially with age and physical strength.

In addition, there are medicinal baths twice or more each month, and one-third of the funds are used to purchase physical training equipment.

After all, brute force training will eventually come to an end, and he must consider the future, such as more scientific and advanced soul-guided forging devices, etc.

Before he turned thirteen or fourteen, things were fine because he had his own money. But what about after that? If he had to work to earn money, he probably wouldn't have as much time to maintain his extreme training.

As for asking Grandpa Zhang Can for help? It's not impossible, but what about after that? What will happen then? It's a bottomless pit with no end in sight!

Grandpa Zhang Can could help Ning Wuque for a while or even for a lifetime, but Ning Wuque's upbringing made it impossible for him to accept Grandpa Zhang Can's lifelong help with a clear conscience.

He was raised almost entirely by Grandpa Zhang Can since he was a child. He must not forget this kindness, nor should he take advantage of it to demand more from him!

Therefore, Ning Wuque is preparing to sell his martial arts techniques to attract investment.

He directly handed over to Zhang Can the "Exploding Ring" secret method, which he had learned, analyzed, speculated on, and finally initially deciphered, as well as the initial practice stage of the "Ninefold Yama Gate" manual that he had spent fifteen days writing.

He was asked to submit it to the sect for review and verification, hoping to use this mature but unverified idea and the self-created soul skill that was still under development to exchange for investment from the sect, or to have them buy out a portion of it.

This is likely to result in a loss, because things that are not finished products are always significantly discounted. Furthermore, there are very few people who can cultivate either the Ring Explosion or his "Ninefold Yama's Pass," so in terms of value, they are completely outclassed by most universal self-created soul skills!

For example, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School's "Distraction Control Technique" and the Body School's various combat techniques.

But! But!

Zhang Can is a sect elder with a cultivation level of eighty-two. His guarantee can eliminate most of the possibility of Ning Wuque being taken advantage of by bad people, and can also make the people in charge of this part of the sect take this matter seriously.

At the same time, the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School lacks both experts and secret treasures such as soul bones, but it has no shortage of money for investment!

Perhaps the good impression Ning Wuque left on the sect's higher-ups during the Awakening Conference will be of help to him?

Right?

With this in mind, Ning Wuque soon approached Zhang Can, explained his thoughts, and asked for his help.

Zhang Can agreed, and more than three months later, he brought back news, good news that could be guessed from his words just now!

…………

Upon returning home, Zhang Can first instructed the steward assigned to him by the sect to prepare dinner, and then pulled Ning Wuque back to his study.

Sitting at the desk, Ning Wuque stood beside him, staring at a storage soul tool and two contracts on the desk.

Zhang Can began to speak:

"Wuque, the sect has already had a six-ring battle spirit master conduct a successful ring-detonation experiment. Just as your theory suggests, the prerequisites and the thought process for ring detonation are almost identical!"

The sect wants to buy out your ideas. From now on, they don't want anyone else to see a second copy of this theory. You're smart, understand?

"I understand, Grandpa Zhang!"

Ning Wuque nodded in reply, "As expected. The 'Exploding Ring' soul skill he created isn't particularly valuable, so much so that he could write down about 80% of the secret techniques passed down from the Haotian Sect, even if he was just guessing. It might even be easier to understand."

They could even develop an even more amazing game like "Ninefold Yama's Gate" with a higher ceiling and lower entry barrier, based on this foundation.

A sect would never fail to buy out a manuscript that is at least 80% accurate.

"However, this soul skill is completely tailor-made for super combat weapon spirits and beast spirits. Other soul masters who cultivate it will only end up crippled, and it can't even be used as a trump card."

These words were Zhang Can's way of preparing Ning Wuque mentally. There was no other way; the limitations of this soul skill meant that the sect couldn't offer a price commensurate with its level.

He negotiated for a long time before finally raising the price by about 30% from the original price, and also asked for an additional agreement, hoping that Ning Wuque would accept it.
