Douluo: Martial Soul Research Diary

Chapter 39 Ning Rongrong Becomes an Apprentice

"Ning Rongrong, did you go to the Great Soul Arena yesterday?"

The next day, Ferrand confronted Ning Rongrong, demanding an explanation.

"Of course I went, but I didn't play."

Ning Rongrong explained very calmly.

"why?"

Flander felt his authority had been violated, and his words carried a hint of anger.

Ning Fengzhi had entrusted him to take care of Rongrong, but clearly he didn't take it to heart.

"I'm afraid of dying." That's the perfect excuse.

"Ning Rongrong, do you know what our school motto is?"

Just as Ning Rongrong hesitated, Ma Hongjun called out from the side.

"A person who doesn't dare to cause trouble is mediocre!"

Ferrand nodded and said:

"Yes, those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre."

"If a Soul Master is afraid of this and that, how can they grow into a genius?"

With an air of grandeur, Ferrand pointed to the school motto on the teaching building.

"Oh?"

Ning Rongrong rolled her eyes in confusion and repeated, "Is someone who doesn't dare to cause trouble mediocre?"

"Yes, this is the motto of Shrek Academy. If you do not agree with it or are unwilling to obey orders, you can return to your Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

As he spoke, he turned around and looked around, only to find that one student was missing.

"Dai Mubai, where's Oscar?"

Dai Mubai shook his head: "I don't know, maybe I overslept."

Outside, Oscar's urgent message arrived.

"I've broken through! I've broken through level 30!"

People's joys and sorrows are not shared. While everyone was immersed in the joy of her Oscar breakthrough, Ning Rongrong began to doubt her choice again.

Was coming to Shrek Academy the right decision for me?

She was hesitating, she was thinking.

"You can't learn anything useful at Shrek Academy."

"There isn't even a simulated training ground."

"Meditation techniques are not taught in the academy at all."

While pondering, she habitually turned her head and looked in a certain direction.

Empty.

"homesick."

Ning Rongrong, who originally wanted to prove herself, suddenly missed her days in the sect and mustered up her courage.

"Dean Ferrand, I'd like to ask for leave!"

The sudden sound interrupted everyone's joy.

Upon hearing this, Ferrand frowned.

Originally, I just wanted to use PUA tactics on her, but I didn't expect Ning Rongrong to actually drop out of school.

It's worth noting that after Ning Rongrong enrolled, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School provided Shrek Academy with a substantial amount of funding.

If she drops out of school, she'll have nothing left in the future.

Fortunately, she only asked for leave.

Tang San shook his head. He felt that this young girl was not mentally strong enough and could not accept the slightest setback.

Ma Hongjun felt a little regretful, because if Ning Rongrong left, he would lose his big sugar daddy.

"Two months."

Ning Rongrong spoke calmly, as if everything was insignificant.

"Rongrong, maybe I was a bit too harsh just now."

"Would you like to reconsider?"

Ferrand walked to Ning Rongrong's side, trying to win her back, but how could he win back a heart that had already drifted far away?
Ning Rongrong refused, ignoring Flander's expression, and left Shrek Academy without any hesitation.

Ning Rongrong believes that Shrek Academy is a mess, and so is its principal.

The teacher didn't encounter many, but the students were outstanding.

Turning the bracelet on his wrist, a distinct aura was transmitted to Ning Fengzhi.

Sword Douluo arrived in a hurry and took Ning Rongrong away.

After returning to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, I don't know why, I wasn't happy.

Just two days ago, her father praised her, saying that Rongrong's theoretical knowledge had improved greatly. Yang Wudi of the Broken Clan came to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and said that she had a talent for pharmacology and wanted to take her as his disciple.

She agreed.

She didn't know why she agreed; it was all based on her feelings.

Ning Rongrong possesses a weapon-type martial soul, as does Yang Wudi.

Under Yang Wudi's tutelage, Ning Rongrong began to study pharmacology and learned it very diligently.

Even so, she was still not very happy.

"Rongrong, you are a support-type Soul Master and also a weapon-type Martial Soul."

Why study pharmacology in the plant field?

He called Rongrong aside and asked her a question.

After thinking for a long time, Ning Rongrong finally answered:

"Perhaps it was Master Yang who said I have talent."

In fact, Ning Rongrong couldn't explain why, but she just wanted to study pharmacology, for no reason at all.

Ning Fengzhi would never believe his daughter's nonsense. Talent? What could she possibly learn without talent?
Does using a supplementary study list necessarily reduce her efficiency?
"Alright, Father, I don't actually object to your choice, but you should also take care of your health."

"Look at you now, you look so listless, you even have dark circles under your eyes."

Ning Fengzhi took out a two-way mirror inlaid with gemstones from a drawer and handed it to Rongrong.

The sunlight reflected off Ning Rongrong's face; her delicate and pure eyes held a deep weariness.

Have you been having any troubles lately?

Ning Rongrong didn't answer, but just had a bitter face, and no one could guess what she was thinking.

Ning Fengzhi remained silent for a while.

At that moment, he felt a wave of powerlessness.

Even as a father, he had never encountered such a situation.

Just then, when the two were both at a loss, Han Tao walked over.

Ning Rongrong put away her sour face.

She told herself that she was in a bad state and it wasn't appropriate to show it to outsiders.

"Master, has Chief Yang provided any information about the 'Qiluo Tulip'?"

Ning Rongrong turned around and hid to the side.

"Qiluo Tulip" is a magical herb that Ning Rongrong encountered with Yang Wudi.

However, she didn't take it seriously because the existence of the immortal herb was questionable.

At this moment, Han Tao mentioned "Qiluo Tulip," which already indicates that the immortal herb truly exists.

Ning Rongrong suddenly took it seriously.

Ning Fengzhi picked up a teacup, poured in hot water, and brewed a pot of calming tea.

Han Tao had never heard of or known the price of Tranquil Tea before, but Ning Tian later explained it to him.

One gram of Tranquilizing Tea costs 3000 Gold Soul Coins. The amount in Ning Fengzhi's teacup alone would easily cost close to 1.

He handed the teacup to Han Tao and casually replied:
"Yes, I already know how to pick and use the Kira tulip."

"Now, can you tell me its location?"

Han Tao took out a map, which showed the general distribution of power in the Douluo Continent.

"The Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire is one of the three great treasure troves of the Douluo Continent."

"The Eye of Ice and Fire, a unique spring, where two elements are born from the same source, and the two elements counteract each other."

"We found the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire. Inside, there are not only the Qiluo Tulip, but also other immortal herbs, including many rare and expensive medicinal materials."

"It's much more expensive than your calming tea!"

As he spoke, Han Tao finished the calming tea in one gulp.

"A cow chewing a peony!"

"A rough pig can't eat fine bran!"

Ning Fengzhi offered his comments on this.

"Qiluo Tulip" can not only evolve the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, but also halve the combat power of plant-type soul beasts.

"The Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire is located in the heart of Sunset Forest, where there are many poisonous barriers. Only by passing through these poisonous barriers can one glimpse the true face of the Yin-Yang Eye of Ice and Fire."

Although Han Tao had pointed out the location, Sunset Forest was still very large.

Sunset Forest is vast, and the poisonous barrier in the center is an extremely expansive area.

Finding the Yin-Yang Well of Ice and Fire by navigating through the poisonous barrier is no easy task.

"Sunset Forest, the eye of ice and fire."

Ning Rongrong hid to the side and secretly noted down the two pieces of information that Han Tao had said.
