Douluo Continent: Starting with controlling Ning Rongrong and establishing the Holy Cult

Tang San still trusted Yu Xiaogang very much, so at this moment, he told Yu Xiaogang about the eight bone spears in his dream.

Yu Xiaogang listened, nodding occasionally, and gradually became somewhat surprised: "Xiao San, judging from your description, that should be an external soul bone. If it's really as you say, then you obtained the external soul bone when you killed the Human-Faced Demon Spider, which is a very useful thing. It's the key to determining the outcome of a battle between high-level experts. Let's call it the Eight Spider Spears."

"Eight Spider Lances? Teacher, do you mean I obtained an external soul bone?" Tang San asked in surprise. He didn't expect that the thing in his dream was so powerful. But then he was puzzled, "But teacher, I didn't sense its presence at all."

Yu Xiaogang shook his head, indicating that Tang San didn't need to worry, and said, "That's because the soul bone is hidden."

"But why is the soul bone hidden?"

"Think carefully, did you encounter anything strange when you were absorbing the spirit ring?"

"Strange... Oh! Teacher. In the final stage, the violent energy in the spirit ring suddenly calmed down. Now that I think about it, it shouldn't have been because of me, but why was that?"

"Think again, what changes occurred during that period?"

"My two companions are back. Xiao Wu couldn't possibly have this ability..." Tang San's eyes lit up. "It's Ning Rongrong!"

Chapter 52 The Master's Scheme

Upon hearing the name Ning Rongrong, Yu Xiaogang's lips twitched slightly.

After meeting Ning Rongrong in Soto City, Yu Xiaogang's jealousy intensified.

Why should Ning Rongrong be allowed to become an elder of the Holy Spirit Cult? No way, Yu Xiaogang must get the position of Seventh Elder!

Yu Xiaogang quickly came up with a new plan: to make his most proud disciple, Tang San, stronger and to have him join the Holy Spirit Cult as the Seventh Elder.

In this way, he essentially became the Seventh Elder.

So, he came to "take care" of Tang San, intending to subtly let Tang San know about the existence of the Holy Spirit Cult. Then, it would be best to create a grudge between Tang San and Ning Rongrong or the Seventh Elder of the Holy Spirit Cult. The specific process was to "unintentionally" reveal that he had been hurt by the Seventh Elder of the Holy Spirit Cult or Ning Rongrong, thereby arousing Tang San's passion to protect his master.

Yu Xiaogang believed that as long as he said that, Tang San, who respected him, would definitely go and cause trouble for Ning Rongrong. If it worked, that would be best; if it didn't, he could still benefit from it.

After all, based on his observation, although Ning Rongrong was the Seventh Elder, she was weak and immature. He might even win if he fought her one-on-one.

Presumably, the reason he was able to become the Seventh Elder was because of those guys from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

What makes someone like this qualified to become the Seventh Elder?

Yu Xiaogang grew angrier the more he thought about it. After arriving at Shrek Academy, he went straight to Tang San. He decided to start by listening to Tang San's troubles to deepen the image of him as a "good teacher" and thus better guide Tang San to develop in the direction he hoped for.

Just then, Tang San seemed to be having a nightmare.

After he determined that Tang San possessed an external soul bone, he became even more confident in defeating Ning Rongrong.

Then... he heard Tang San say "Ning Rongrong".

That's fine too; since they know each other, it saves him some trouble. Now, all he needs to do is stir up trouble between them. Tang San is honest and won't suspect him, which couldn't be easier.

This idiot, look at his expression, he actually looks grateful.

Yu Xiaogang was puzzled and asked, "Xiao San, you said Ning Rongrong helped you neutralize the violent energy, so why do you look so grateful?"

Tang San thought for a moment, then put on a serious expression and said, "Teacher, you don't know this, but I almost died back then."

Oh no! This kid thinks Ning Rongrong saved him! This won't do, how can we let them become enemies?

Yu Xiaogang's eyes lit up, and a mischievous idea popped into his head.

He shook his head, sighed, and said, "Xiao San, the world is a dangerous place, and people's hearts are no longer what they used to be. Do you really think Ning Rongrong is a good person?"

Tang San hesitated after hearing the master's words.

He recalled everything that had happened since Ning Rongrong came to Shrek Academy.

Those perfectly normal things suddenly became somewhat sinister under the master's words.

First, there was Zhao Wuji's test. Ning Rongrong actually pulled away Zhu Zhuqing, whom she didn't know at all, and staged a scene of a hero saving a beauty. At such a young age, her mind is so deep!

Then, in the Great Soul Arena, he showed off and even killed someone!

Ning Rongrong's whereabouts in the Star Dou Great Forest were also strange. Although Xiao Wu offered that explanation, it cannot be ruled out that Xiao Wu was being threatened by Ning Rongrong.

He was absorbing the spirit ring perfectly fine, so why did she have the right to interfere!

Tang San grew angrier the more he thought about it, and he was already gritting his teeth.

Yu Xiaogang, delighted by Tang San's expression, added fuel to the fire, "That's right, Xiao San. I just carefully sensed it, and you don't have any external soul bones at all. That Ning Rongrong directly cut off your opportunity; she's a terrible villain!"

"Oh!"

Tang San knocked on the bed board, and the bed board made a loud noise.

His eyes were bloodshot, and he stared madly at the air in front of him.

"I knew I had this strange feeling; it turns out my opportunity has been taken away. Ning Rongrong, you've already chosen your own path to death!"

Very well, the feud has been established. Next, we need to test the other party's strength. At the same time, we mustn't let Ning Rongrong realize that we were the ones who did it... We have to do this before Ning Rongrong returns to Shrek Academy.

Yu Xiaogang nodded in satisfaction, then coaxed, "Little San, do you know that Shrek Academy usually only uses one particular passage to the outside world..."

Tang San understood the meaning behind the master's words, but he was still puzzled: "Master, you want me to go to the entrance of the academy, but how can you be sure that Ning Rongrong will leave Shrek Academy?"

Yu Xiaogang was taken aback, shook his head, and said, "When I came here, I ran into Ning Rongrong in Soto City. At that time, I felt that this girl was a bit strange, but I didn't know that she was also from Shrek Academy."

"Rongrong is outside the academy?" Tang San's eyes widened. They clearly returned at the same time, so why was Ning Rongrong in such good spirits and able to go to Soto City? It's true that Soto City isn't far from Shrek Academy, but it's still several kilometers away.

Tang San's trust in the Grandmaster deepened even further. After thinking for a moment, he nodded.

"Okay, teacher, I'll take care of her."

Tang San said, and stood up.

However, Yu Xiaogang stopped him in time, taking out a mask and a black robe and handing them to Tang San.

"When you're out and about, please be careful and prioritize safety."

Tang San solemnly accepted the two items, nodded, and his eyes were full of gratitude.

The teacher was afraid he would be recognized! By disguising himself like this, even if he couldn't beat Ning Rongrong, he could escape unscathed, they could still be classmates, and he could lie low for a few more years.

Can't beat them?

Tang San sneered.

How could that be? Ning Rongrong is, after all, just a support-type Soul Master, while Tang San is a control-type Soul Master, the strongest among Soul Masters!

However, the teacher meant well, and it was inconvenient to refuse.

Tang San changed his clothes, said goodbye to the master, and headed to the entrance.

The master's voice came from behind: "Also, if it really is that Ning Rongrong, you need to be careful of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

"I understand! Don't worry, teacher, I know what I'm doing," Tang San replied.

After Tang San left, Yu Xiaogang revealed a sinister smile.

The plan is in place.

Tang San was successfully sent to deal with Ning Rongrong.

Yu Xiaogang had already envisioned two possible outcomes. The first was that Tang San killed Ning Rongrong, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School came to seek revenge, but at this moment he had become the Seventh Elder of the Holy Spirit Sect, and might be able to use the sect's power to deal with them.

The second possibility is that Tang San was worried that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would cause him trouble, so he secretly severely injured Ning Rongrong. While Ning Rongrong was busy looking for the culprit, he killed her and became the Seventh Elder.

Yu Xiaogang turned and left Tang San's room, glanced at the blazing sun hanging in the sky, and then his gaze gradually shifted to Flander's office.

"It's time to meet him," the master said softly, and started walking.

Chapter 53 Tang San's Thoughts

Tang San had already reached the entrance of the academy and looked back in the direction of his dormitory.

He was very careful along the way, making sure that no one he knew had seen him and that the master was not observing him.

He stepped across the academy gate, leaned against the fence, and burst out laughing.

The gratitude on his face had long since vanished. In that short distance, Tang San had already figured out many things.

The master had no good intentions at all!

Upon closer examination, the master's words were full of flaws.

Just because of his dream, Ning Rongrong was convicted?

Tang San didn't believe that nothing had happened between Grandmaster and Ning Rongrong in Soto City, but he didn't know what exactly had happened between them.

This was clearly a conflict between the master and Ning Rongrong, but because he was afraid of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School behind Ning Rongrong, he decided to make him the culprit.

If I really hurt or killed Ning Rongrong, would the pretense really work?

Tang San considered himself useless.

"What a clever scheme, teacher." He shook his head, his respect for the master diminishing slightly.

but!

Has he really given up on resolving Ning Rongrong's situation?

nor.

Tang San stood at the entrance of Shrek Academy, deep in thought.

First, there's the "Eight Spider Spears" that the master mentioned. His explanation is quite reasonable. Although he might have made it up, who knows if he was originally going to have the Eight Spider Spears, but Ning Rongrong ruined the process of obtaining them?

Secondly, when he first enrolled, Ning Rongrong was already level 30. In just a few days, even he had only reached level 31, yet Ning Rongrong was already level 33? If this continues, the gap between him and Ning Rongrong will only widen, and he will live in her shadow for the rest of his life.

Finally, judging from Ning Rongrong's methods, if the other party were to stand against her in the future, she would undoubtedly lose.

Thinking of this, Tang San clenched the hand with the Clear Sky Hammer soul imprint and looked up into the distance.

It's best to deal with Ning Rongrong. While their strength difference isn't too great yet, it's best to settle things quickly. As for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School…

Please, Tang San and Ning Rongrong are classmates, how could they have any conflicts?

But isn't that level 29 "master" who had some things happen with Ning Rongrong in Soto City a bit more suspicious?

Just to be on the safe side, Tang San took out the hair of the Grandmaster that he had secretly hidden and put it in his pocket. He planned to throw it on the ground when the fight broke out, believing that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would not let this evidence go!

As for the location of the interception, Tang San decided to place it somewhere a bit far from the academy, in case someone else saw it, that would be bad.

In the afternoon, some distance outside Shrek Academy.
