Simultaneous Transmigration: From Douluo Continent to the Pinnacle

Chapter 14 The Adorable Ning Rongrong

Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong, based on Lin Yao's displayed talent, planned to establish the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School as its leading force during his growth.

Lin Yao, the main character in the three people's conversation, was in his room, completely focused on his cultivation.

The gentle yet profound soul power, like a flowing stream, slowly circulated through the meridians in his body. Each circulation was like a gentle baptism and nourishment for his body.

Under the careful nourishment of this soul power, Lin Yao could truly feel that his strength was increasing in a subtle but continuous manner.

Although this enhancement doesn't bring the same shocking, leapfrog improvement as absorbing a soul ring, his cultivation speed is already much faster than that of other innate full soul power users of the same level.

"A decent cultivation speed."

As expected, the Soul Master stage is much faster at absorbing and nurturing Soul Power than the Soul Warrior stage, and the Soul Power absorption efficiency within the body is also much purer.

"Acquiring the spirit rings as soon as possible was absolutely the right decision."

Lin Yao sighed inwardly.

When he realized that his body was absorbing and converting soul power, his meridians were already feeling a little tired. He knew that he needed to rest to achieve a balance between work and rest, and that he could absorb soul power efficiently again after he recovered. So he slowly opened his eyes.

In an instant, a dazzling golden light flashed in his eyes, then disappeared into the depths of his eyes. With the successful attachment of this soul ring, the potential of the Star Sword was unlocked as if by a mysterious key, and was developed to a great extent.

His cultivation speed also seemed to be propelled by an invisible hand, becoming increasingly faster.

After attaching a spirit ring, a host of benefits follow.

Lin Yao wasn't sure if others could have such a wonderful experience, but he knew in his heart that he had truly gained a great deal this time.

He couldn't help but wonder if, besides his own exceptional talent, breaking through the limits to absorb the spirit ring also had a special effect?

"This is----"

Just as Lin Yao turned his head to relax, he inadvertently glanced at a letter lying quietly on the table.

On the envelope of the letter were a few large, crookedly written characters: "See you at the training ground tonight. From the eldest sister of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

.

Upon seeing these words, Lin Yao was slightly taken aback, then the corners of his mouth unconsciously turned up, revealing a faint smile.

He opened the letter and found even fewer words inside, just a dozen or so large, crooked but determined characters that read, "Tonight we'll settle this once and for all, and see who will be the future leader of the sect."

"This girl knows I'm back but doesn't come to see me, instead leaving this letter. Has she read too many romance novels and is trying to challenge me with this letter?"

Lin Yao murmured to himself, Ning Rongrong's playful and adorable appearance involuntarily appearing in his mind.

"If I hadn't seen this letter and hadn't gone to our appointment tonight, wouldn't that girl have been waiting there for ages, getting stood up? She'd be furious!"

Lin Yao shook his head, thinking to himself that it wouldn't hurt to take a break during his cultivation and play with Ning Rongrong.

This is a good opportunity to make her realize that she is older than her and far less capable. She is only meant to be the younger sister, so she should stop thinking about being the older sister.

Night had fallen, and the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was shrouded in a tranquil black veil.

Lin Yao walked steadily toward the training ground.

He didn't encounter many people along the way, only occasionally running into a few patrolling disciples.

These inspectors had obviously learned of his identity from Ning Fengzhi and the others, and when they saw him, they all bowed respectfully.

Then he stopped bothering them and continued to focus on his patrol duties.

Currently, Lin Yao holds an extremely high position in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, ranking only after Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong, as well as the two Title Douluo.

However, some people are quite puzzled by this.

Although Lin Yao possesses the exceptional talent of innate full soul power and a top-tier martial soul, it's not like he could rise to such heights overnight and receive such high treatment, is it?

In their view, only after one's strength has improved and one has made certain contributions to the sect should one have such a transcendent status.

Lin Yao's status in the sect has suddenly risen, as if he were the illegitimate son of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's sect leader who had been brought back.

Ning Rongrong may have also noticed that the three elders were paying special attention to Lin Yao, and felt that some of the affection she usually enjoyed had been taken away. She had a strong stress reaction and had the idea of ​​suppressing Lin Yao.

In reality, there are also some gossipy mindsets and a bit of discontent within the sect.

How could someone who came from out of town to make a living at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School suddenly rise to a higher status than some of the more experienced and talented disciples within the school?

However, Ning Fengzhi has established a very high reputation in the sect over the years thanks to his outstanding efforts in revitalizing the sect. In addition, Chen Xin has taken Lin Yao as his student. So even if some people had their own thoughts, they chose to remain silent and did not say anything.

But Lin Yao had just returned today, and Ning Rongrong had already placed the letter in his room beforehand. There might be some people secretly guiding him behind the scenes.

These people wanted to test Lin Yao's true strength and see how capable this so-called genius really was after obtaining a spirit ring. They wanted to see if he was truly exceptionally strong or just all show and no substance.

The thoughts and feelings involved are complex and subtle, and cannot be fully expressed in words.

"They're here."

"That person is here. Stand up quickly, don't squat."

"Miss Rongrong, that person has arrived."

As soon as Lin Yao stepped into the training ground, he saw a group of people.

The group of people, who had been somewhat listless, became instantly excited the moment they saw him, like a stone thrown into a calm lake, creating ripples.

And leading the group was none other than Ning Rongrong, who had just been idly feeding mosquitoes.

"Hmph, you rascal, you've kept me waiting for so long, and you've finally arrived. If I wasn't worried about interfering with your cultivation and getting punished by Father, Sword Grandpa, and Bone Grandpa, I would have kicked down your door long ago."

When Ning Rongrong saw Lin Yao, she immediately pouted and said with a reproachful expression, looking like a spoiled little princess.

"Rongrong, why did you suddenly do this? I missed you when I got back today. So seeing you tonight has really cheered me up."

Lin Yao said with a smile, his tone full of affection.

Upon hearing this, the expressions of the people behind Ning Rongrong changed instantly.

Some looked surprised, while others looked at her strangely, all cautiously glancing at Ning Rongrong, whose face was slightly flushed.

Some shrewd people, after hearing Lin Yao's words, felt that the relationship between the two was likely that of a very close brother and sister.

Moreover, this relationship seems to have been approved by the sect leader.

If we help Miss Rongrong now, we won't end up pleasing neither side.

"Don't just say nice things. Unless you call me 'sister' yourself, I'm going to teach you a lesson today and show you who's in charge."

As Ning Rongrong spoke, she raised her hand and waved, and several people immediately stepped out from behind her, forming a fan shape to surround Lin Yao.

"Little brother Yao, do you want them all to take on you one-on-one, or do you want to take on all of them one-on-one?"

Ning Rongrong blinked and asked with a sly look, her expression suggesting that she was already confident of victory.

"Wow, you're quite experienced. Are you thinking that if I take them all down by myself, you'll never be able to shake off your identity as my sister?"

Lin Yao raised an eyebrow and teased.

"Hmph, say whatever you want, I feel like I'm going to win this time."

I, Miss Rongrong, never fight a battle I'm not sure I can win.

"I'm giving you a chance now. Become my underling, and you'll live a life of luxury without suffering any physical pain."

Ning Rongrong raised her chin, her tone extremely arrogant, and deliberately tossed her smooth, short hair with her hand.

Her smug look made you want to ruffle her hair and pinch her cute cheeks.

Lin Yao glanced at the people behind Ning Rongrong and found that the oldest of them was only five or six years older than him. He judged that there couldn't possibly be any Soul Sect level experts among them, and felt relieved.

So she gently shook her head and said, "No, I don't think you can defeat me with the people behind you. This time, you're probably mistaken. You'd better just wait and call me brother, Rongrong."

"Since he's so arrogant, you lot, don't just stand there. Teach this guy who always wants to be my brother a lesson and let him know that Miss Rongrong's dignity is inviolable."

Upon hearing this, Ning Rongrong pouted even more angrily and immediately gave orders to those people.

"Young Master Lin Yao, please don't blame us. We were just following orders."

The leader stepped forward and spoke politely. This person looked to be about seven or eight years older than Lin Yao and was the strongest among the group.

Although he spoke politely, his attitude towards Lin Yao was largely due to other people.

And this other person, unsurprisingly, is Lin Yao, whose talent has been valued by Ning Fengzhi.

He had no idea about Lin Yao's actual strength, nor did he care to find out.

Even though he knew in his heart that doing so might offend Lin Yao, he was, after all, surnamed Ning in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and he had no reason or right to refuse Ning Rongrong's request.

Even though he was considered a child prodigy among his peers.

I've heard that this person has some kind of teacher-student relationship with the Sword Master, but in front of Miss Rongrong, this relationship doesn't seem to matter that much.

However, this still puts some pressure on Yan Jun.

So he thought to himself that he should be gentle when he made his move, and just make Lin Yao's expression a little unpleasant.

All of this was done in order to win Ning Rongrong's trust, and even hoped to achieve what his family expected: to build a good relationship with Ning Rongrong.

Afterwards, with the corresponding resources, and relying on their own talent, they will definitely be able to go further on the path of a Soul Master.

Lin Yao looked at the person who had spoken, his gaze calm and indifferent, and said softly, "You're very confident in your abilities. You don't really think you've got this in the bag, do you?"

"If we were the same age, I admit I am no match for you, a top genius with innate full soul power."

But actually, I'm much older than you, and with that age advantage, my current strength is far beyond what you can match.

My name is Yan Jun, my martial soul is the Ironclad Bear, and I am a level 31 Power Attack type Battle Soul Master.

Now you should understand the difference between you and me, right?

Yan Jun stopped the others who wanted to join in, and, following the custom of Douluo Continent, introduced himself.

As soon as he finished speaking, three spirit rings rose up on his body.

The first soul ring was a pale yellow one, emitting a faint glow. The second was a deep yellow soul ring, and the last one was a noble pale purple soul ring, which was the Millennium Soul Ring.

This optimal soul ring configuration demonstrates his strength and pride as a Soul Master.

"Not bad."

Seeing the three soul rings floating on Yan Jun's body and feeling the Soul Master's pressure emanating from them, Lin Yao remained calm and said softly.

Yan Jun should be the best among the teenagers of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Becoming a Soul Master at the age of fourteen or fifteen, in the original story, such strength was enough to join Shrek Academy's second team, second only to Tang San and others who had eaten the immortal herb.

In the Douluo Continent, most Soul Masters can only improve their strength through precious items such as Soul Rings and Soul Bones; other resources for improving strength are extremely scarce.

For ordinary geniuses like Yan Jun, their strength increases more and more slowly as they progress, which is why he is not well-known in the original work.

Compared to the Shrek Seven Devils, who have both the aid of immortal herbs and the empowerment of divine inheritance, ordinary geniuses cannot keep up when it comes to unleashing their talents later on, as their talents are insufficient and they have not made any corrections.

"I was already amazed when I first heard about your innate talent of full soul power, you so-called top genius."

But now it seems your arrogance and disdain for others far outweigh your actual abilities.

Yan Jun saw Lin Yao's indifferent expression, as if his act of bullying a one-ring Soul Master with the strength of a Soul Master was completely disregarded by the latter.

The other party seemed to have already won, and a surge of anger welled up in his heart. He said with a forced smile.

"Young man, no matter how talented you are, with your current strength, you are no match for me at all."

You'd better go along with the young lady's wishes; that way, you can avoid conflict and everyone will look better.

Yan Jun attempted to subdue the enemy without fighting.

"No need. This is a good opportunity to experience the strength of an opponent at the Soul Master level."

2

Lin Yao ignored Yan Jun's words and immediately summoned the Star Sword.

He held the Star Sword in his hand, and the pale purple halo floating on the sword instantly shocked everyone present.

The crowd's pupils contracted sharply, their faces filled with shock, followed by a chorus of gasps.

"hiss!"

"How is this possible?!"

"A thousand-thousand-year soul ring! The first soul ring is actually a thousand-year soul ring! This—"

"Moreover, judging from the fluctuations of soul power emanating from this person, it shouldn't be as simple as just breaking through to the first ring of a soul master; they've already reached level seventeen—"

Everyone gasped in amazement, their eyes filled with disbelief. All doubts about Lin Yao's rumored talent vanished under the light purple soul ring.

Ning Rongrong, who knew Lin Yao best, was so shocked that her mouth was slightly open, her eyes were wide open, and she had an expression of disbelief on her face.

How come this guy, who always wants to be my older brother, has caused such a big commotion in just over ten days?

Not only did it absorb a thousand-year soul ring, but its soul power also broke through to level seventeen, eight levels higher than mine. What kind of monster is this?

For the first time, Ning Rongrong, who possessed the honor of being the most talented direct disciple of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in hundreds of years, was extremely shocked, yet also felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

Suddenly, Ning Rongrong felt a sense of unease about her plan to subdue Lin Yao. Would it all backfire?
