Douluo: Son of the Stars

Chapter 42 Order
Yu Tianheng was the first to speak in support: "Don't worry, Xiaorui. No matter what, our sect will send people to study."

"We will also send people to study in the academy." Ning Fengzhi followed up.

Everyone knew how rare it was that Tong Rui was willing to bring the latest technology from the continent to the academy for people to learn. If this kind of thing was placed in any sect, it would create a top sect that was not inferior to the top three sects.

"Originally, I wanted to buy the soul guide ray production method from you, but since you chose to make the soul guide production method public, then our sect will not let you suffer any loss. For the set of equipment just now, our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect hopes to purchase 500 sets at yuan each."

Ning Fengzhi knew very well that even if Tong Rui disclosed the method of making soul guides, he only taught the knowledge of first-level soul guides. If the people in the sect wanted to research and develop third-level soul guides on their own, it would probably take more than five years.

For the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, the mere 1000 million is enough to be earned back in 5 years. Being able to use the money to exchange for the safety of the direct spirit masters of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is simply a great deal for them.

"No problem, but this is a huge project, and it may take a long time for me to make it alone, so I may only be able to provide about 100 sets per month."

Ning Fengzhi nodded: "It's enough. Once it's finished, just contact Ning Yuan and we'll send someone to receive it."

Ning Fengzhi did not stay for too long. When he left, Tong Rui personally stood up and escorted him out of the reception room.

Before leaving, Ning Fengzhi stuffed a golden card into his hand, without telling him how much money was in it, but told Tong Rui that this was a deposit, and the remaining balance would be paid after the soul guide was completed.

On the way back to the clan, Gu Rong asked in a deep voice: "Feng Zhi, what do you think of that boy?"

Ning Fengzhi smiled and said, "This kid is very good, and I feel like he has more secrets. A kid can develop a brand new system to this extent in just one year, it's as if he clearly knows how the future will develop."

"And meeting him today gave me a very strange feeling. Over the years, I have never felt that I was seen through by anyone, but I not only felt that from him, but I even felt that he understood me very well, including you, Uncle Gu."

Gu Rong smiled bitterly and said, "Know us very well? How is that possible? Is there a traitor in the sect? But this kid is so smart, and he has a way to break through the title. Coupled with his unrivaled talent, I'm afraid he will become the next peerless Douluo in time, and his sect and academy will surpass the top three sects. Sect Master, is that right..."

Having said that, a fierce look flashed across Gu Rong's face, and he raised his right hand in front of him like a knife and gestured lightly.

"No." Ning Fengzhi flatly rejected Gu Rong's proposal. "Uncle Gu, don't say such things again. Let's not talk about the fact that we need him to open up the path of soul guides for us. Without him, based on the efficiency of our own research, this process will inevitably be delayed by hundreds of years. Then the safety of the sect's disciples will be difficult to guarantee for a long time."

"Although I can't guess how far this child will develop in the future, judging from his talent and knowledge, perhaps, many years later, he will also be a Pope-like figure. Although we cannot bring this child into the sect, we must do everything possible to make friends with him."

Gu Rong was a little puzzled and asked, "Why? Are we just going to watch such a threat grow up? If he grows up to be a Titled Douluo in a few decades, together with his father, there will probably be two Douluos in the family, and his mother will also reach the Soul Saint level."

"On paper, their strength is not weaker than ours. If her mother makes further progress, and the academy will continuously provide them with talents, we will probably be suppressed by them forever." Ning Fengzhi sighed, "What you said is true, but I think more, Uncle Gu, you have not left the sect for a long time, and you have never cared about the outside world. But, do you feel that the soul master world of the entire continent has been a little too quiet in the past twenty years?"

Gu Rong's expression changed slightly, "Sect Master, what do you mean?"

Ning Fengzhi said: "I still remember that when I was young, the soul master world on the mainland was turbulent, and visible and invisible struggles broke out everywhere. But in the past twenty years, such struggles have almost disappeared. The entire continent and the soul master world of the two empires are terribly quiet. But I vaguely feel that a storm is about to come. Perhaps, in a few years, the situation in the soul master world will change."

Gu Rong said with some disapproval: "Feng Zhi, you are worrying too much. In my opinion, the peace of the continent is an inevitable trend. The soul master world is mainly controlled by the Spirit Hall and our seven major sects, and they don't interfere with each other."

"Most soul masters are attached to these two forces. Even if there are some who do not belong to either, they are controlled by the two empires or kingdoms or principalities. The overall situation will naturally become stable. Will there be any variables in this?"

Ning Fengzhi smiled bitterly, "If that's the case, then that would be the best. But I'm afraid it's not that simple. I've found some clues, but I can't be sure yet, so I'd better be careful."

"But, one thing is for sure, once the situation on the continent changes, our seven major sects must unite together. I can't say anything about the lower four sects, but our upper three sects have always been of the same mind. As long as the relationship between our upper three sects is stable, we are not afraid of any power change on any side. If a sect can emerge at this time to replace the lower four sects and become the upper four sects, it will be extremely beneficial to us as a whole."

"I am very optimistic about Tong Rui. I also believe that with his ability and talent, it won't be long before he will stand out in the world of soul masters. I even thought that if possible, it would be a good choice to tie their combat power to our Seven Treasures Glazed Sect through marriage."

Gu Rong hesitated and said, "Rongrong? But she is still young, and she is your only daughter. Are you willing to let her go?"

Ning Fengzhi smiled calmly: "As a child of the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, this is her responsibility. These are still later. It depends on how the child develops in the next few years. If he has a confidante, I will have other countermeasures. Uncle Gu, after today, spread the news of their academy."

"But in this case, won't the Spirit Hall also send people to learn this soul guide technology? If we can keep the news secret, we can only send disciples from our sect to learn."

Before Gu Rong could finish, he was interrupted by Ning Fengzhi: "That's impossible. Today, he told this matter to the Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex and the Tiandou Royal Family. And the Nine-Hearted Begonia and the Black Tortoise Family will most likely join his sect. It seems that Dugu Bo has a good relationship with him today."

"Although these small families cannot constitute any major forces, it would be the best choice if they could all attach themselves to Tong Rui's sect. Based on their influence, their sects and academies will probably become famous soon."

Gu Rong sighed, "Alas, what a pity, we are still a step too late. If he hadn't spread the news, we would still have time to do anything."

Ning Fengzhi shook his head and sighed, "I'm afraid all this started because of his plan."
