Chapter 184 Layout
With the Spirit Hall's Soul Masters beginning a large-scale rout, the entire battlefield has been completely turned around.

In the center of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's plaza, Ning Fengzhi and Bone Douluo were still in charge, occasionally arranging various actions for all personnel, including pursuing the Spirit Hall's Soul Masters, sorting out the sect's internal personnel, and summarizing the sect's personnel losses, etc. Of course, the Spirit Hall had set a lot of fires in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in the early stages, so putting out the fires alone was quite troublesome.

Lin Gong stayed by Yang Xiong's side, surrounded by countless purple bamboo. Yang Xiong's condition was quite special, and it was unknown how long it would take for him to fully recover. If he were disturbed by others, he might really be in danger.

Meanwhile, the others began to pursue the fleeing members of the Spirit Hall, essentially launching a pincer attack from both sides.

Especially the three major single-attribute families, under the leadership of Yang Wudi and Niu Gao, are like tigers released from their cages, relentlessly pursuing and killing the Spirit Hall personnel.

Originally, the three major single-attribute families had a deep-seated hatred for the Spirit Hall. Now that they had such a good opportunity, how could they not pursue it?
Sword Douluo also pursued the two Title Douluos from the Spirit Hall, but unfortunately, both Demon Bear Douluo and Spirit Kite Douluo were too fast to escape.

If a titled Douluo tries to escape with all his might, it will be difficult to truly kill him unless he is surrounded and attacked from both sides.

Lingyuan Douluo's martial soul, the Flame Eagle, possesses extremely fast flight capabilities. At this moment, disregarding her injuries, she pushed her flight speed to the limit, running incredibly fast.

Ignoring his injuries, Demon Bear Douluo flew towards the Spirit Hall with all his might, seemingly risking his life to escape.

In the end, Sword Douluo was also helpless. Since he could not pursue the titled Douluo on the other side, he would slaughter more ordinary soul masters who came to attack.

Sword Douluo summoned countless sword energies, and the sky was filled with a massive rain of swords, instantly killing countless black-clad soul masters.

After the entire battle lasted for two hours, the remaining members of the Spirit Hall finally managed to escape, leaving behind only countless corpses.

However, after the war, Ning Fengzhi listened to the various reports with unusual seriousness.

Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School achieved an unprecedented victory this time, there are no true victors in war under any circumstances, especially when facing the attacking Spirit Hall Soul Master Legion.

Even though the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School received advance warning, the attack was still too rushed, and many people died in the first wave of attacks.

The number of Soul Masters lost is between seven and eight hundred, accounting for nearly 20% of the entire sect's personnel. What's even more troublesome is that the remaining 10% of disciples who went out on business are also frequently receiving bad news.

Based on this situation, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has a total of about 5,000 Soul Masters, and the overall loss is estimated to be a little over 1,000, with the sect's loss rate exceeding 20%.

The loss of a thousand Soul Masters was only part of the total loss; the ordinary people within the sect suffered even greater losses, including many children and women.

Not to mention that after the extensive destruction, the entire sect was like being engulfed in flames, and the various losses were countless, amounting to an astronomical sum in terms of money.

In comparison, the number of Soul Masters lost by the Spirit Hall was even more staggering. In the early stages, Dugu Bo and Sword Douluo killed a large number of them, and later Sword Douluo chased down many more. Judging from the corpses alone, the number has exceeded six thousand. Many of the corpses were directly shattered or turned to ashes, not to mention the Soul Masters who were seriously injured and fled.

Even so, Ning Fengzhi stayed up all night in the square, handling all sorts of matters, big and small, within the sect.

As for why he was in the square, on the one hand, he served as the backbone of the sect to give everyone confidence, and on the other hand, the sect had too many things to do. After the great battle, almost everyone was exhausted, and they needed absolute leadership and control, otherwise the sect would easily fall apart, especially for an auxiliary sect like the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

After a full night, Yang Xiong's body seemed to gradually transform, and the murderous aura emanating from him grew stronger and stronger, as if he were a demon emerging from hell.

His entire body rapidly absorbed energy from the air, and the three broken soul bones began to gradually grow back.

When Yang Xiong regained consciousness, it was already the morning of the next day.

Yang Xiong looked around and saw that, apart from Lin Gong, Sword Douluo was also sitting next to him with his eyes closed, and his parents and elder brother were also sitting beside him.

Yang Wei, the eldest brother, was overjoyed: "Xiao Xiong, you're finally awake! You looked terrifying!"

Yang Xiong felt an intense soreness all over his body, as if his bones had been crushed, but they were growing back rapidly.

In particular, Yang Xiong observed his own body and felt as if his body had broken through some kind of limit, and his soul power had reached level seventy, making him look much stronger than before.

"Dad, Mom, Big Brother, Teacher Lin, Sword Douluo Teacher, I should be alright now, thank you for your concern."

After everyone comforted him, especially after Sword Douluo and Lin Gong carefully examined Yang Xiong's body, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The situation after Yang Xiong's battle yesterday was indeed too bizarre, seemingly defying the normal course of events in the Soul Master world.

Ning Fengzhi finally breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Yang Xiong recover. Yang Xiong quickly asked, "Sect Master, what were the losses our sect suffered yesterday?"

Ning Fengzhi sighed: "Although our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has achieved a great victory, the number of disciples lost, including those who went out on business, is estimated to be over a thousand. In addition, countless ordinary people and children have also been lost, and the financial losses are incalculable. Judging from the situation, it may not be possible to recover even after ten years."

Yang Xiong was also taken aback, not expecting that despite so many preparations, the battle at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would still be so fierce.

Regardless, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School still won the battle without suffering any real damage.

In particular, Sword Douluo did not lose an arm to level up like in the original story, and his path of cultivation was not cut off. He may really have a chance to improve again in the future.

Yang Xiong thought for a long time before speaking: "Sect Master, please accept my condolences. Although we suffered some losses this time, the Spirit Hall should have suffered even greater losses. They should not be able to launch a large-scale war again in the short term."

Ning Fengzhi nodded: "That's right. Just from our count of the corpses of the black-clad men who came to attack, we estimate that there are no fewer than six thousand. Add to that those who were shattered into pieces by soul skills or turned to ashes, and their casualties should be no less than seven thousand."

"No matter how powerful the Spirit Hall is, it cannot organize so many people in a short period of time. This time, they will probably need to rest for a long time to recover."

"Especially since the Spirit Hall lost two Title Douluos this time, this is what truly crippled the Spirit Hall."

Yang Xiong asked, somewhat puzzled, "Sect Master, which two Title Douluos from the Spirit Hall were killed? Demon Bear Douluo should have escaped, right?"

Yang Xiong secretly hoped that Demon Bear Douluo was not dead. Although he had lost to Demon Bear Douluo today, he believed that if he continued to cultivate, he could surpass Demon Bear Douluo in three to five years at most, and even kill him without any assistance.

It's important to know that Yang Xiong was able to fight the Demon Bear Douluo to a draw this time, not only because of Ning Fengzhi's ultimate support, but also because of Oscar's super-limit-breaking dark green intestine. Otherwise, with Yang Xiong's level 69 soul power, it would have been impossible for him to fight against a titled Douluo.

In ordinary battles, Yang Xiong believed he could barely match the fighting power of a Title Douluo. However, when it came to a life-or-death struggle, Title Douluos would display extremely terrifying strength. Just as his teachers had said, every Title Douluo in the Douluo world not only possessed exceptional talent but also top-tier martial souls, extraordinary perseverance, and numerous opportunities. All aspects were indispensable.

Ning Fengzhi rarely showed a smile: "Little Bear, don't worry, Demon Bear Douluo has escaped. Although Uncle Jian chased after him all the way, that guy ignored the fact that his army was being besieged and has already fled back to the Spirit Hall."

"Given time, you will surely be able to defeat Demon Bear Douluo personally and avenge today's defeat."

Yang Xiong gritted his teeth: "Sect Master, teachers, rest assured, next time I will definitely be able to personally kill Demon Bear Douluo and avenge the humiliation I suffered today."

Ning Fengzhi hesitated for a moment before speaking: "Xiao Xiong, what do you think our sect should do now?"

Yang Xiong looked puzzled: "Sect Master, haven't we already repelled the Spirit Hall's enemies? What other arrangements are needed?"

Ning Fengzhi gave a bitter smile: "Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School suffered too many losses in this battle. If it weren't for your and Yang Wudi's assistance, plus your previous arrangements, our losses would have been truly enormous."

"We are now severely weakened. Although we still have four thousand Soul Masters in our sect, if the Spirit Hall continues to eye us so covetously, I'm afraid our days ahead will not be easy."

"Therefore, I plan to move the sect to Tiandou City, where we can depend on the Tiandou royal family and recover our strength as soon as possible."

Yang Xiong's lips twitched slightly upon hearing this. How come the situation of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is now countless times better than in the original story? Why does Ning Fengzhi still want to move the sect to Tiandou City?
Moreover, according to the original plot, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School suffered heavy losses in the Spirit Hall's Soul Hunting Operation, and was further tricked by Qian Renxue during the Heaven Dou Palace Coup. The remaining Soul Masters were hit again, and the sect's power declined again and again.

Because the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was so deeply involved with the Heaven Dou Empire, they basically became the main force on the final battlefield. In this process, there would definitely be a lot of losses, and even the Sword Bone Douluo eventually perished.

Yang Xiong thought for a moment before speaking: "Sect Master, have you considered that our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is so large that if we really move to Heaven Dou City, we might not get along so well with the Heaven Dou royal family?"

"The Heaven Dou royal family currently lacks its own top experts, which is why they rely heavily on our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. If one day they were to produce multiple Title Douluos, conflicts or even mutual suspicion between the two sides could easily arise, which would put us in trouble."

"You should know that the Heaven Dou Empire has been working hard to cultivate Soul Masters over the years. Although they lack top-tier Soul Masters, the number of ordinary Soul Masters in the Heaven Dou Royal Family is no less than ours. If they turn against us one day, we may not even be able to escape."

Yang Xiong spoke these words after careful consideration. Although there have always been some entanglements between the royal family and sects, no sect has ever had such an unusually close relationship with the royal family as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is currently quite wealthy and at its peak, if it were to decline even slightly, it might be completely swallowed up by the royal family.

Ning Fengzhi immediately became extremely serious upon hearing this, and his expression changed drastically after hearing Yang Xiong's next words.
