Douluo Continent: Divine Oracle Young General, Qian Renxue, please have some self-respect.

kendo?

Ning Rongrong was no stranger to these two words.

After all, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School already has a ready-made sword master.

Sword Douluo Chen Xin, the Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul.

"Is it the kind of swordsmanship that Grandpa Jian uses?" Ning Rongrong asked, blinking her beautiful big eyes.

"Yes, but not entirely."

Jiang Ci said softly.

"Sword Douluo's mastery of swordsmanship is beyond doubt."

"But it's not suitable for you."

"I have fought against Sword Douluo before, and I have some understanding of his swordsmanship."

"The Seven Kill Sword's swordsmanship relies too much on killing intent; almost all of its sword moves are based on the Seven Kill Sword's killing intent, which surpasses that of other martial souls."

"This path is not easy for those who do not possess the Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul."

"My swordsmanship is different. It is not as specialized as the Seven Kill Swordsmanship. Reaching the pinnacle may be difficult, but with careful instruction, it should not be hard to master."

When Jiang Ci was a Soul Saint, he once sparred with Sword Douluo Chen Xin.

They were thoroughly familiar with the differences between the two sides' sword styles.

Ning Rongrong was perfectly clear about which one was more suitable for her support-type background.

"Therefore, I will teach you the sword techniques I have developed over the years, to make up for the gap caused by soul skills as much as possible."

"Isn't this a little inappropriate..." Ning Rongrong pursed her red lips.

She is not stupid.

To understand what sword techniques mean to a swordsman.

It is no exaggeration to say that a swordsman's sword techniques and a sect's secret techniques are essentially the same.

It is not something that can be easily taught to outsiders.

Although she had become Jiang Ci's disciple, Ning Rongrong knew very well that it was only because of the conditions offered by the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

She never imagined that Jiang Ci would pass on his sword techniques to her.

It should be noted that General Divine Oracle is not only renowned in the military.

His reputation among sword cultivators is legendary.

Her divine oracle sword technique was even praised by her sword grandfather as being comparable to top-tier soul skills.

Countless sword spirit owners in the Soul Master world hope to learn this Divine Oracle Sword Technique.

"What's wrong with it?" Jiang Ci himself didn't take it too seriously.

In the end, the Divine Oracle Sword Technique was just a set of sword moves that he had come to understand and summarize during his cultivation.

Although the reason for taking Ning Rongrong as a disciple was merely a transaction.

But now that he has accepted this student, he will fulfill his responsibilities as a teacher.

"Teachers are simply doing their duty by instructing students."

"Starting today, in addition to your daily basic soul power training, you will have another task."

"Swing the sword."

"Swing a sword?" Ning Rongrong was puzzled. She thought Jiang Ci was going to teach her the Divine Oracle Sword Technique directly.

"Don't aim too high." Seeing through her thoughts, Jiang Ci once again tapped her fair forehead with his knuckles.

"oops!"

Ning Rongrong covered her forehead, her beautiful eyes glistening with tears.

Can't we play somewhere else?

However, Jiang Ci decisively ignored her resentful gaze.

He said calmly:

"Swinging the sword is just to lay a good foundation for you."

"You have never received any kendo training before this."

"Only by becoming familiar with your own sword can you begin the true practice of swordsmanship."

"A tall building starts from the ground up; a solid foundation is the most important thing."

"Once you have a solid foundation, I will begin to teach you the relevant sword techniques of the Oracle Sword Technique."

"Okay..." Ning Rongrong replied pitifully.

"Okay, remember, two hours of practice every day. I will supervise you to complete the task."

"Ah, two hours?!" Ning Rongrong looked troubled.

That's putting people in a really difficult position.

When has the quirky young lady of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School ever engaged in two hours of tedious cultivation?

"Teacher, could you make it less?"

"No discussion." Jiang Ci firmly rejected Ning Rongrong's coquettish request.

"You don't want the chance for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to evolve?"

"Okay, fine..."

Thinking about breaking the limitations of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, Ning Rongrong agreed.

Isn't it just spending some time on spiritual practice?

Everyone else can do it, so why can't she, the eldest daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?

"Then let's start now."

"Ah, today?" Ning Rongrong sighed bitterly.

She thought she could rest for a while after arriving at the mansion today.

Jiang Ci remained expressionless.

"Does one need to choose a specific day for spiritual practice?"

"Waaah..."

Ning Rongrong picked up the jade-colored glass sword with a gloomy face.

Jiang Ci corrected each of her basic sword-wielding problems step by step.

…………

the other side.

Qian Renxue returned to her Eastern Palace through the secret passage.

From the shadows, a figure slowly emerged.

"Miss, the Pope has made a move."

"Porcupine Douluo said softly."

"Um?"

"What is that woman trying to do?"

Upon hearing the name of the woman who made her feel awkward, Qian Renxue's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly.

The Porcupine Douluo replied:

"News from inside the palace indicates that the Pope has convened a meeting and proposed..."

"General Jiang Ci, the Oracle, has been added to the Spirit Hall's kill list."

Upon hearing this, Qian Renxue's expression immediately changed.

"Should Jiang Ci be added to the Spirit Hall's kill list?"

Qian Renxue naturally knew what was going on with this kill list.

This is a list compiled by the Spirit Hall for individuals deemed potentially threatening to the Spirit Hall.

Tang Hao and Tang Xiao, the twin stars of the Haotian Sect.

The two titled Douluo protecting the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Yu Yuanzhen, the Thunder Douluo of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

These are all people on the kill list.

Given the right opportunity, the Spirit Hall will carry out a ruthless crackdown on these people.

Qian Renxue didn't care about those people before.

But if it's Jiang Ci, she can't ignore him.

Especially after just finishing his conversation with Jiang Ci.

Qian Renxue had already excluded him from the ranks of enemies and regarded him as someone who could be turned into a friend.

It was impossible for him to watch Bibi Dong include him on this list.

"Yes, His Holiness believes that Jiang Ci is highly talented, is not a member of our Spirit Hall, and is a high-ranking official of the Heaven Dou Empire, which already poses a threat to the Spirit Hall."

"Porcupine Douluo replied."

He wasn't surprised by Qian Renxue's reaction.

After all, the young master cared deeply for Jiang Ci, something they, as Qian Renxue's bodyguards, already knew.

"Who said he's not one of my Spirit Hall members?"

"Huh?" The Porcupine Douluo was somewhat taken aback.

He knew that Qian Renxue had always wanted to win over Jiang Ci, but there had been no substantial progress.

Could it be that……

Has the young master's departure successfully brought Jiang Ci into their camp?

If this young general with divine insight could join their ranks, the progress of their plan to seize the country could be accelerated significantly.

After all, controlling that young general meant controlling nearly half of the Heavenly Dou Empire's military strength.

Qian Renxue did not explain, but simply gave the order with a stern face.

"Piglet, please deliver a message to Grandpa for me."

"In the name of the Hall of Offerings, stop Bibi Dong's actions."

Tell her...

Qian Renxue paused for a moment, hesitated for a while, and then spoke.

"Jiang Ci is my person, and he has the intention to join the Spirit Hall. It's not her place to interfere."

"Yes."

The Porcupine Douluo was somewhat disappointed.

It turned out that the young master had not yet successfully recruited Jiang Ci into the Spirit Hall, but he still responded.

He didn't care about any of that.

Since he is the person the young master wants to protect, as his subordinate, he should do as the young master says.

As for what happened to Bibi Dong, he didn't care.

He was a member of the Hall of Offerings, not Bibi Dong's.
