Douluo: The Op-Op Fruit, skilled at researching them

Chapter 88, Section 87: The Best Strategies are No Strategies at All

"Grandpa Jian, you're being unfair! Why are you taking this new kid's side? Am I still your precious Rongrong?"

Ning Rongrong was very unhappy about what was being said, but she couldn't find any reason to refute it, so she had no choice but to act like a rogue.

"Rongrong!"

Seeing that Ning Rongrong was being stubborn, Sword Douluo Chen Xin also put on a stern face, his expression extremely serious.

He didn't expect that Ning Rongrong, despite such a huge gap in their abilities, would still not realize her mistake and instead change the subject. He immediately felt a little angry.

"Rongrong, have I been too lenient with you, or are you going through a rebellious phase?" Sword Douluo Chenxin said in a deep voice.

Seeing that Sword Douluo Chen Xin was angry, Ning Rongrong still stubbornly insisted, "I've always been cultivating, Grandpa Sword!"

"I know you've been cultivating regularly, but have you been cultivating diligently? With such a low soul power level, is it fair to your innate soul power and cultivation resources?"

Sword Douluo Chen Xin decided this time not to indulge Ning Rongrong anymore, but to try to speak more harshly and make Ning Rongrong feel scared.

"You've been too lax in your cultivation, Rongrong. Look at Luo, he's about your age, but his soul power level is four levels higher than yours. Don't you realize the difference?"

Unexpectedly, Ning Rongrong was not afraid at all. Instead, she made a face at Sword Douluo Chenxin and ran towards the dormitory building.

"Hehehe, I'm not listening, Grandpa Sword is chanting. I'm going to go play with Xue Ke!"

When Ning Rongrong ran to Luo's side, she secretly punched Luo's arm hard, which made Luo unable to help but laugh. He thought to himself that the dignified Sword Fighter Luo Chenxin had no intimidation power at all in front of Ning Rongrong.

Sword Douluo Chen Xin, facing the rebellious little witch Ning Rongrong, stood there with a wry smile, only able to awkwardly reach out and stroke his white beard a few times.

He and Gu Rong, the Bone Douluo, usually spoiled Ning Rongrong so much that they couldn't bring themselves to say anything harsh in front of her.

Then, Sword Douluo Chen Xin coughed and had to change the subject:

"Young Luo, this isn't the place to talk. Come with me to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's headquarters, which isn't far from the Heaven Dou Royal Academy. Once there, you can ask me anything you have questions about cultivation."

Luo nodded, then unfurled the black wings attached to his soul bone and flew into the air with a powerful flap.

Sword Douluo Chen Xin was not surprised to see this. He lightly tapped his foot and, like a sword immortal, flew towards the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's base, stepping on a Seven Kill Sword.

Luo quickly flapped his wings and followed behind, while Sword Douluo Chen Xin deliberately slowed down so that Luo wouldn't fall behind.

And so, after flying for a short while, the two landed in a particularly large manor.

"Young Luo, your Black Wing External Soul Bone is really impressive. It has given you a flight speed comparable to a Flying-type Soul King."

"To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that your body has completely fused with this external soul bone, I estimate that not many soul masters in the world could resist this temptation."

As soon as Sword Douluo Chen Xin landed, he couldn't help but praise Luo's black wing external soul bone.

Sensing the return of Sword Douluo Chen Xin, Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo Gu Rong came out of their room and went to the training ground behind the manor.

From a distance, Luo could hear Bone Douluo Gu Rong's hoarse voice: "Old Sword Master, is this the kid you've been thinking about these past two days, the one you wanted to take as your last disciple?"

Upon hearing this, Sword Douluo Chen Xin immediately rolled his eyes, ignoring Bone Douluo Gu Rong, and instead took the initiative to introduce Luo:

"Luo, you've already met Feng Zhi. The large skeleton next to him is another Guardian Douluo of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School—Bone Douluo Gu Rong. You don't need to give me any face; just call him Old Bone!"

Seeing that these two titled Douluo were quite old, yet still bickering like two children, Luo could only force himself to suppress the smile on his lips and not let himself laugh out loud.

He couldn't even imagine how hilarious it must be to see these two old people, who always called each other "old bastard" and "old bones."

Of course, Sword Douluo Chen Xin can call Bone Douluo Gu Rong "Old Bone," but Luo certainly can't be so impolite.

As a titled Douluo of level 95, Luo should still show him the basic courtesy he deserves upon their first meeting.

When Ning Fengzhi and Gu Rong, the Bone Douluo, arrived, Luo also took the initiative to greet them, saying, "Greetings, Senior Bone, Sect Master Ning."

Upon seeing Luo's arrival, Ning Fengzhi greeted him with a kind and friendly smile, patting him on the shoulder and saying:

The latest novel is first published here!

"It's an honor for me, the sect leader, to have you visit our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's headquarters when you have time!"

"Sect Leader Ning, you're too kind," Luo replied, neither humble nor arrogant.

Just as the two were exchanging pleasantries, Bone Douluo Gu Rong waved his hand impatiently and said:

"Alright, I can't stand your politeness anymore, Old Swordsman, let's get down to business."

Luo Wen nodded slightly, looked at Sword Douluo Chen Xin beside him, and asked:

"Senior Sword, I read in the 'Overlord Blade' manual that the highest level that can be achieved in both swordsmanship and saber techniques is called 'no moves are better than moves.' But once a person makes a move, then there is a move. If there is a move, how can there be no move? Isn't that a contradiction?"

Upon hearing Luo's question, Sword Douluo Chen Xin opened his mouth as if to say something, but before he could utter a word, he swallowed it back.

After pondering for a moment, Sword Douluo Chen Xin suggested, "How about this, Luo boy? You and I will have a spirit sparring match. Neither of us will use spirit skills; we'll only use swords and blades to compare techniques. I'll also suppress my spirit power level to be the same as yours. What do you say?"

Luo naturally couldn't have asked for more, and then, without thinking, he placed his hand on the Yama at his waist. His aura instantly calmed down, becoming as still as a deep well.
