In Douluo Continent, Tang San raids my base right from the start.

Chapter 129 Isn't this Tang San's hidden arrow?

Two days later, at the Academic Affairs Office of Tiandou Royal Academy.

"Dugu Yan, since you've made your decision, I won't try to persuade you any further," Meng Shenji said. "I'll have someone inform Instructor Qin Ming about your withdrawal from the team later."

"No need, Committee Member Meng, I'll talk to them myself later," Dugu Yan said politely.

"Alright." Meng Shenji nodded, turned to look at Zhu Wu, and then saw Zhu Wu take out a small booklet.

"Commissioner Meng, this is the training plan I've drawn up, along with the blueprints for the necessary equipment. You can have the academy instructors implement it directly in the second team. As for Ling'er and me, these training programs are too low-intensity for us."

"Therefore, for a short period of time, we will leave the team and train on our own."

"Once the team members complete this training plan, I will personally take them out for real combat training."

"Yingtian, you're very thoughtful." Meng Shenji smiled as he took the book, flipped through it in front of him, and then his eyes lit up.

After reading it, he looked up at Long Yingtian and tentatively asked, "Yingtian, do you think it's possible for Team One to also implement the training plan shown here?"

"It's just some physical training. Look how happy you are, as if you can catch up with me just by training..." Zhu Wu said calmly, "Okay, consider it compensation for taking Dugu Yan away."

"Then I, on behalf of the students of Team One, thank you, Ying Tian." Meng Shenji said with a smile.

"It's nothing." Zhu Wu said nonchalantly. "Commissioner Meng, since there's nothing else, we'll head back to our dorms. Also, I'd like to trouble you to send someone to inform Sect Leader Ning. Once he arrives, just have him go directly to my dorm."

"Alright." Meng Shenji nodded with a smile and watched Zhu Wu lead his men away.

Soon, outside the Education Commission building, Zhu Wu turned to look at Dugu Yan and addressed her using the same form of address she had used on the way back: "Yan Yan, when you get back, you can go directly to the Second Team dormitory, or you can go to my and Ling'er's place."

"Okay." Dugu Yan nodded, took her leave, and departed.

"Young Sect Master, do you need me to stay at the academy?" Dugu Bo asked.

"It's up to you," Zhu Wu said calmly. "As long as you don't feel it will affect your cultivation."

"No, that won't happen. The Heavenly Dou Royal Academy has a simulated environment suitable for my cultivation," Dugu Bo said. "Young Sect Master, I'll have the Education Committee arrange another place next to your residence. If you need anything, you can come and summon me at any time."

"Okay." Zhu Wu nodded and pulled Long Ling'er toward the dormitory.

Dugu Bo cupped his hands in greeting and dashed back to the Education Commission building.

An hour later, at the villa.

Ning Fengzhi led Sword Douluo and Ning Rongrong into the living room and sat down on the sofa at Zhu Wu's invitation.

Without further ado, Zhu Wu waved his hand and placed the entire herb, pot and soil, flat on the table.

The branch is entirely black, with a palm-sized golden fruit at the top, looking like a huge golden pearl. Inside, it sparkles with golden light, like a sky full of stars.

Ning Fengzhi and the others stared wide-eyed.

"This is the Star Luo Spirit Pearl, which has the ability to gather the essence of stars and the moon. It is one of the most intimate spiritual objects of heaven and earth with humans, and therefore it is not particularly resistant to being picked by humans. Of course, the closer the connection between the martial soul and starlight, the easier it is for the spirit to accept it, and the better the effect after fusion will be."

Zhu Wudao said, "Once the fusion is successful, it can be transformed into a soul core within the body. A soul core is an energy crystal that a soul beast can only condense after its cultivation reaches 100,000 years."

"The Soul Core not only makes the Soul Power within the body more solid, but also greatly enhances the control over one's abilities, making it incredibly versatile. The Star and Moon Essence contained within it is the key to the evolution of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul."

"All gemstones in the world have undergone the baptism of time and been nourished by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, thus forming a connection."

"In fact, there have been successful cases of gemstone-type martial souls in history. The difference is that the other party drew upon the essence of the sun and moon."

"If it can be fully effective, its value is definitely above that of a 100,000-year-old soul beast. In fact, if Rongrong's martial soul can inherit its ability to draw upon the radiance of stars and moon."

"I think Sect Master Ning should be able to foresee the changes it will bring to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

Anyone can brag!

Doesn't that mean everyone gets a Nine-Treasure Glazed Pagoda? Everyone except Long Ling'er was slightly surprised.

"Of course, that would be the best outcome. But in reality, I can't guarantee that it will allow Rongrong's martial soul to evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, nor can I guarantee that Rongrong's martial soul will inherit this attraction ability. After all, your family's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul isn't directly connected to starlight." Zhu Wu continued, "Then, Sect Master Ning, if needed, you can name your price."

"Furthermore, if Rongrong cannot obtain its approval to pick the fruit, the transaction will automatically be void."

Ning Fengzhi's eyes flickered as he turned to look at Sword Douluo, who opened his hand and a small booklet appeared in his palm.

"This is our sect's current inventory of all Qi and Blood-related medicinal herbs. Please take a look, Young Sect Master Long."

As she spoke, she controlled the boat to drift towards Zhu Wu.

Zhu Wu nodded, reached out and took it, and immediately began to read it.

"Wow, so many! This sect is really rich!" Tianmeng exclaimed first in the mental space.

"Boss, they're obviously trying to curry favor with you."

"Isn't that obvious?" Zhu Wu thought to himself. "I knew that all along."

The direct descendants of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School are all support-type Soul Masters. To survive, they must find a powerful backer, and the Illusionary Beast School, with a demigod in charge, is undoubtedly a strong backer.

In truth, Ning Fengzhi would be willing to spend a fortune on any rare and precious treasure he offered. His effusive praise of the Star Luo Spirit Pearl was merely to make Ning Fengzhi feel better and think it was a bargain.

At least I've saved face, and I feel better inside.

In this way, subsequent cooperation will naturally go more smoothly; this is what is meant by understanding human relationships and social dynamics.

Of course, if the Star Luo Spirit Pearl could truly allow Ning Rongrong's martial soul to evolve, then everyone would be overjoyed.

Thinking this, Zhu Wu smiled and said, "I am very satisfied with Sect Leader Ning's generous gift."

As he spoke, he reached to his waist, revealing the blueprint for the hidden arrow, and handed it to her, saying, "Sect Leader Ning, consider this blueprint a return gift."

"Isn't this Tang San's hidden weapon?" Ning Rongrong looked surprised as she glanced at the design of the hidden weapon.

Tang San's hidden arrow. Ning Fengzhi's eyes flashed.

Ning Rongrong had told him about this, and he had originally wanted to find an opportunity to get it from Tang San.

"Also, I have another piece of information for Sect Leader Ning: Tang San's father is named Tang Hao," Zhu Wu continued.

"???" Everyone except Long Ling'er was immediately shocked.

"He's from the same village as Zhu Wu, his family runs a blacksmith shop, and he has a restrained aura, so he should be a Soul Master." Zhu Wu shrugged. "As for whether he's that Tang Hao, we don't know."

"..." Ning Fengzhi smiled and cupped his hands in thanks. "Then thank you very much, Young Master Long."

If it really is that Tang Hao, then forget about the blueprints. Therefore, the value of the one Zhu Wu has naturally skyrocketed.

"Sect Leader Ning, you're too kind. My Beast Sect never likes to owe favors." Zhu Wu smiled, then turned to Ning Rongrong. "Rongrong, it's really nothing. Whether it was the era of human cold weapons or the era of the glorious soul tools, my Beast Sect has experienced it all. Naturally, the clan has relevant records. I even have better ones."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Ning Fengzhi.

"We'll talk about that later."

"Let Rongrong try to pluck and absorb this Star Luo Spirit Pearl first."

"This Long Yingtian is no ordinary person," Ning Fengzhi thought to himself, then turned and smiled, "Not bad, Rongrong, hurry up and give it a try."

I'll write another one as compensation today.
