Chapter 65 Where is the way out?

three days later.

The grand ceremony to re-rank the seven major sects of the world is about to begin.

Other forces located far from Wuhun City.

Delegations from various academies, and members of the Heavenly Dou Royal Family and the Silla Royal Family.

And those high-level soul masters from commoner backgrounds have all arrived in Wuhun City one after another.

Inside the Papal Palace at this moment.

Qian Xunji, Yue Guan, and Gui Mei stood on the high platform.

Dozens of Spirit Hall deacons below the stage were nervously calculating the betting amounts from all sides in this gambling game.

Much later.

Platinum Bishop Salas, carrying an account book, walked unsteadily toward Qian Xunji.

Under Chihiro's probing gaze, Salas spoke cautiously.

"Your Holiness, after we have checked it repeatedly..."

It has been confirmed that the total amount wagered in this gambling game, which is being overseen by Elder Yueguan, has reached 1 million gold soul coins.

And this number is still growing...

Upon hearing this, Qian Xunji and the other two were somewhat bewildered.

After a long while, Qian Xunji finally spoke and asked.

"Bishop Salas, how many gold soul coins do you expect our Spirit Hall to gain from this bet?"

Upon hearing Qian Xunji's question, Salas shook his head.

"I'm sorry, Your Holiness, the exact amount is too large to determine at this time."

But what is certain now is that for the next decade or so, our Spirit Hall will no longer need to worry about distributing benefits to Spirit Masters.

Upon hearing Salas's words, Qian Xunji nodded and did not ask any further questions.

Seeing this, Salas asked again.

"Your Holiness, due to the pre-set rankings, the fact that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has three Guardian Douluos has been widely known."

However, some time ago, many nobles jointly suggested to my Spirit Hall that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School be disqualified from the rankings.

Those people all felt that Ning Fengzhi was unworthy of his position.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, a sect that rose to prominence by relying on foreign soul masters, is not worthy of sitting in the position of the top three sects.

They proposed that outsider Soul Masters like Bone Douluo should not be allowed to represent the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in this ranking competition…

Upon hearing this, Qian Xunji looked at Yue Guan and Gui Mei beside him and asked.

"Elder Yueguan and Elder Guimei, what are your thoughts on this?"

After a moment's thought, Yue Guan spoke.

"Your Holiness, the Spirit Hall does not need to get involved in these matters."

Let the other factions discuss it.

"Your Holiness, I share the same view as Yue Guan."

After receiving the reply from Yue Guan and the other person, Qian Xunji nodded and said nothing more.

Looking up at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's headquarters, Qian Xunji's thoughts drifted away.

"Without using any real strength, just a few simple words have put the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in this awkward situation."

With Qin Ming in my Spirit Hall, perhaps one day my Spirit Hall will truly unify the continent…

……

VIP lounge area.

The headquarters of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

boom--

Gu Rong simply threw out several gifts.

Immediately afterwards, several well-dressed young men were also casually tossed out by Gu Rong.

"Get out! You're not welcome here!"

With that, Gu Rong slammed the courtyard gate shut.

After closing the door, Gu Rong showed a hint of fatigue on her face.

After slowly walking to the stone bench in the center of the courtyard and sitting down, Gu Rong looked up and ahead.

At this moment, Chen Jianjun had also emerged from seclusion and was sitting opposite him. They both saw the helplessness in each other's eyes.

The group that just came were minor nobles who came to recruit them.

There's no need to guess; Gu Rong and Chen Jianjun already know.

These people were just testing their attitude.

The people who truly wanted to recruit these two titled Douluo were still watching from behind.

If they show any hesitation, it will likely attract even more people...

"I'm afraid my days will be filled with unrest from now on."

Gu Rong couldn't help but sigh.

"well--

Elder Chen Jianjun, what's going on these days?

Those nobles and people from other sects are all keeping a close eye on our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Some people even tried to recruit us by offering us the position of sect leader or high-ranking official positions.

Even the disciples of our own Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are now considering leaving the sect and seeking other paths…”

Upon hearing this, Chen Jianjun sighed.

He didn't know how to evaluate it either.

Just then, Ning Fengzhi, who had kept his door tightly closed for the past few days, came out.

Gu Rong and Chen Jianjun both turned their gazes in that direction.

The next second, Gu Rong cried out in surprise.

"Sect Master, what's wrong?"

At this moment, Ning Fengzhi's previously full head of black hair was gone.

Beset by internal and external troubles, Ning Fengzhi's hair turned white overnight.

At this moment, he no longer possessed the same high spirits and charisma he had displayed before.

Ning Fengzhi did not answer Gu Rong's question.

After a wry smile, Ning Fengzhi, Gu Rong, and Chen Jianjun sat facing each other.

The three remained silent for a long time.

At this point, Ning Fengzhi's original intention to win over Lan Dian and Hao Tian to form an alliance had long since vanished.

He just hoped the ceremony would end soon so he could quickly lead his people back to the sect to avoid the storm.

Chen Jianjun looked at Ning Fengzhi in front of him and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

His original intention to challenge Sendoryu in this grand ceremony has also vanished.

Seeing Ning Fengzhi's mood becoming increasingly depressed, Chen Jianjun spoke up.

"Sect Master, don't think so much."

Chenxin and I will always support you.

"With us here, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will not fall."

Gu Rong nodded in agreement.

"Sect Master, I will not betray the sect. You can rest assured about us."

After a pause, Gu Rong continued.

"Sect Master, perhaps we should change our attitude towards the Spirit Hall."

Ning Fengzhi was not surprised to hear Gu Rong say that.

He was well aware of how damaging Qin Ming's words were to Gu Rong, a commoner Soul Master who wasn't born into a family.

After nodding to the ancient banyan tree, Ning Fengzhi became even more confused.

He didn't know which direction his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School should develop in the future.

He has been thinking about this problem for the past few days, but he still doesn't have a perfect answer.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has something very special about it compared to other sects.

The Soul Master who holds the highest power in the sect is him, a support-type Soul Master who has no combat ability.

The sect's only method of maintaining stability was through continuous marriage alliances with outside soul masters...

After Qin Ming exposed the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's true colors.

Ning Fengzhi already knew in his heart that the old situation could not continue.

However, it is impossible to achieve a system like the Spirit Hall, where the capable rise and the weak fall.

After all, a Soul Master with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul can never break through to the Soul Douluo realm...

Once the old system is changed, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School can also change its name.

Just as Ning Fengzhi was feeling lost, there was another knock on the door outside the courtyard...
