Chapter 170 The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School Disbands

News of the Heavenly Dou Empire's crushing defeat spread throughout the land in an instant. Everyone, especially the nobles, seemed to be living in fear.

Upon hearing this news, the Star Luo Empire immediately withdrew its million-strong army to the vicinity of its capital, Star Luo City. Countless Soul Masters within the Star Luo Empire also gathered in Star Luo City, seemingly preparing for a final, desperate battle.

Wang Xiaofei from the Elemental Academy was drinking tea, seemingly oblivious to the affairs of the outside world.

"Gentlemen, come out. Now that you've arrived at the Elemental Academy, it's time to show yourselves."

Immediately afterward, figures flashed, and several people appeared outside the room. It was Tang Xiao, Tang Hao, Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, Ancient Douluo, and dozens of disciples from the two sects.

Clearly, this was the only strength the two major sects had left on the surface. However, judging from the situation, none of them were in good condition. Tang Hao, Tang Xiao, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo were obviously seriously injured, and their wounds seemed to be emitting black gas, indicating that they had been poisoned by Bibi Dong.

Xiao Fei waved his hand lightly, and five chairs appeared in front of the five people: "Sect Master Tang Xiao, Uncle Hao, Sect Master Ning, Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, the five seniors have come to my Elemental Academy. Let's have a cup of tea first."

After he finished speaking, five cups of freshly brewed tea flew onto the table in front of the chair.

Ning Fengzhi and the other four exchanged glances and then sat down in their chairs.

"This tea is quite good. The tea leaves came from our dean, and the tea water is from the Lake of Life. It should be of some benefit to the five of you."

The five people looked at Xiaofei with some confusion.

Finally, Ning Fengzhi spoke up: "Dean Wang Xiaofei, are you aware of the war between the Heaven Dou Empire and the Spirit Empire?"

Xiao Fei chuckled: "What's there to know or not know? It's just that the Heavenly Dou Empire was almost wiped out, right?"

"You actually guessed that the Heavenly Dou Empire would be destroyed?"

"Pretty much. The gap in high-end strength between the Heaven Dou Empire, the Star Luo Empire, and the Spirit Empire is quite large, especially in terms of Soul Master Legions and Title Douluos. Now that Qian Renxue and Bibi Dong have both become gods, given Bibi Dong's personality, she'll probably end the battle quickly."

"Judging from your condition, the battle must have been fierce. I estimate that quite a few Title Douluos have died."

Tang Hao stared at Xiao Fei for a while and said, "Xiao Fei, you really have become a god."

Wang Xiaofei smiled without saying a word, seemingly not caring much.

"Since you were the first to become a god, why didn't you stop Bibi Dong and Qian Renxue from becoming gods? That way you would be the only god in this world."

"Uncle Hao, this is pointless. Whether it's Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, or Tang San, I won't stop them from becoming gods. What does all this have to do with me?"

"That's right, it has nothing to do with you. But now the Spirit Empire has two gods, while you only have one. Aren't you afraid they'll both attack you together?"

Xiao Fei took a sip of tea: "It's probably not that bad. My Elemental Academy has always maintained neutrality and doesn't have any enmity with the Spirit Empire."

"By the way, Uncle Hao, what are you five doing at my Elemental Academy? My Elemental Academy has always maintained neutrality."

The room fell silent again in response to Xiaofei's question.

Finally, it was the composed Tang Xiao who spoke: "Dean Wang Xiaofei, I am Tang Xiao, the Sect Master of Haotian Sect."

"Senior Tang Xiao, I've heard so much about you. Please feel free to speak your mind."

"Dean Wang Xiaofei, what will it take for you to protect us? We'll pay any price."

"Senior Tang Xiao is joking. The Elemental Academy will not participate in any conflicts. If you need the protection of the Elemental Academy, you only need to join the Elemental Academy. As long as you all swear an oath to join the Elemental Academy and will not participate in any sect or other conflicts in the future, that will be fine."

"Is it really that simple?"

Xiao Fei ignored Tang Xiao's question and silently drank his tea.

The people around were also pondering Xiaofei's request. Was it difficult? For many, it might be very easy. But for those burdened with deep-seated hatred, it was tantamount to asking him to forget all his hatred.

Ning Fengzhi suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo beside him: "Uncle Sword, Uncle Bone, you two have always contributed to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and devoted yourself to its development. Now it is time for you two to bid farewell to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo also stood up: "Feng Zhi, what are you saying? Old Bone and I were born members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and we will die ghosts of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

Ning Fengzhi shook his head: "Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, I've actually thought about this for a long time. I've been too fixated on this war, too fixated on the hatred for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. When I proposed to retreat at the last meeting, I already had this idea in mind."

"Whether we win or lose this war, it will only mean death for the disciples of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. Even if we win, what difference will it make? Besides, your injuries and poisoning are very serious."

At this moment, Xiao Fei spoke up: "Sect Leader Ning, allow me to interject. I recently visited Seagod Island. Given Tang San's current condition, he should be able to complete the Seagod's inheritance in a few days to half a month. By then, Tang San will also be able to heal everyone's injuries and poison."

Upon hearing this, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao exchanged a glance, seemingly quite excited.

However, Ning Fengzhi remained unmoved and continued to say to Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, "Uncle Sword, Uncle Bone, you two should join the Elemental Academy. After you leave, I will also announce my retirement from the Soul Master world and find a place to live in seclusion."

"Fengzhi, are you really sure? If so, then we can't leave."

"I've made up my mind. If the Spirit Empire comes again, I will surrender to them."

After saying this, Ning Fengzhi pointed to five younger people among his entourage: "From now on, you five are no longer disciples of my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

Immediately afterwards, Ning Fengzhi left without hesitation with the rest of the group, and Tang Hao and Tang Xiao followed suit.

Clearly, Ning Fengzhi was a very intelligent sect leader. Given the personalities of Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, they would never surrender to the Spirit Empire. Furthermore, with these two by his side, the Spirit Empire wouldn't allow him to retire. Besides, with his strength as a support-type Soul Saint, he couldn't possibly escape the pursuit.

After everyone left, Xiao Fei looked at Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, and the other five: "Gentlemen, let's make this clear. You can join my Elemental Academy. But once you join, you can't leave. If you try to leave, your Martial Soul will be shattered."

Upon hearing this, the seven swore an oath with their martial souls that they would never leave the Elemental Academy. Xiao Fei gently waved his hand, and seven mysterious forces merged into their martial souls, seemingly reminding them that if they broke their oath, their martial souls would shatter.

This power is not Xiao Fei's divine power, but the power of Douluo Star. No one on Douluo Star can destroy it, not even a god.

Immediately afterwards, two flames flew out from Xiao Fei's hand and entered the bodies of Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo. The flames burned for a while, and black smoke rose from the bodies of Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo. It was the poison that Bibi Dong had put on the two of them.

After the detoxification was completed, seven thick volumes of academy rules flew out from Xiao Fei and landed in front of the seven people.

After Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo finished reading the academy rules, Bone Douluo couldn't help but ask, "Old Sword Master, do you think it's too late for me to regret this now?"

Sword Douluo could only smile wryly as he looked at the academy rules.

On that day, news spread throughout the Soul Master world that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had officially disbanded. Sect Master Ning Fengzhi led a small number of clansmen into seclusion, while the sect's guardian Douluo, Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, joined the Elemental Academy, and from that day forward would no longer concern themselves with any affairs of the Soul Master world.

I loved Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo so much in the original work that I really didn't want them to die like they did in the story, so I wrote a story about the disbandment of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. The later parts will be quite tragic.
