Douluo: Villain Simulator, Starting with an Iron Sword Martial Soul

Ning Rongrong was finally satisfied and said proudly:

"of course."

"I possess innate level nine soul power."

After saying that, she looked at Lu Changsheng again, her tone carrying a hint of pride.

"Once I obtain my first spirit ring, I will be able to truly assist you."

"At that time, your sword will definitely be faster than before."

Lu Changsheng was slightly taken aback.

Ning Rongrong seemed to have naturally come to regard him as her training partner. Even her first thought wasn't how dazzling she would be after acquiring her soul skill, but rather the sword that could assist him.

This is somewhat different from the little girl who looked down on him for being weak on the day he awakened.

Lu Changsheng said:

"Your first spirit ring should be Power Amplification."

Ning Rongrong nodded.

"That's what Dad said too."

"The first soul skill of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is usually chosen to be power-oriented."

"Dad said that a suitable spirit beast has been found for me."

Lu Changsheng asked, "When are we going to hunt souls?"

"tomorrow."

Ning Rongrong spoke with excitement, yet also a hint of nervousness:

"Go to the Green Vine Soul Hunting Forest controlled by the sect."

"There are hundred-year-old soul beasts there that are suitable for low-level soul masters to obtain soul rings."

Lu Changsheng had heard of the Green Vine Hunting Soul Forest.

It is located southwest of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, about half a day's journey away. Strictly speaking, it is not a true soul beast forest, but a soul hunting area that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has long managed.

Most of the spirit beasts inside are between ten and several hundred years old. The sect will regularly clean up overly strong spirit beasts and also protect some species that are suitable for disciples to hunt for spirit rings.

For someone like Ning Rongrong, this is true.

When acquiring a spirit ring for the first time, one should naturally avoid places that are too dangerous.

Just then, Ning Rongrong leaned closer and whispered:

"Lu Changsheng, do you want to go?"

Lu Changsheng looked at her and was stunned for a moment.

"I?"

Ning Rongrong nodded.

"Ah."

"I told Dad that you've been helping me practice support targeting lately. If you come too, I can try to team up with you as soon as I get my spirit ring."

At this point, she quickly added:

"Of course, I'm not asking you to protect me."

"There will be Steward Zhao, as well as sect guards."

"Grandpa Jian will also be watching from the shadows."

"You're just going to see for yourself."

Upon hearing this, Lu Changsheng's heart stirred slightly.

Going out to hunt souls is indeed an opportunity.

His current soul power is only level four, which is still a long way from his first soul ring.

However, getting a feel for the spirit beasts, the spirit hunting process, and the sect's guard routes beforehand is very important to him.

More importantly, the Green Vine Hunting Soul Forest is located between several of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's affiliated trade routes, which used to be an area frequently visited by the school's guards.

If he wants to find any clues about his parents' so-called "soul beast attack" back then, he will have to come into contact with these routes in the future, and this trip together may be the first step.

Lu Changsheng did not immediately agree, but instead asked:

"Does the sect leader agree?"

Ning Rongrong nodded immediately.

"Dad said that as long as Deacon Zhao and Grandpa Jian have no objections, it's fine."

Lu Changsheng looked at Zhao Yuanshan.

Zhao Yuanshan happened to walk over; he clearly already knew about it.

"The sect leader asked me about it."

"I agree that you should go."

Lu Changsheng was slightly taken aback.

Zhao Yuanshan looked at him and said:

“Your swordsmanship has improved rapidly recently, but you’ve only been practicing in the training grounds, which isn’t enough.”

"A true Soul Master cannot just spar with wooden dummy or fellow disciples."

"Your soul power is currently low, so you cannot go out alone."

"This trip to the Green Vine Soul Hunting Forest with the sect's team will be a good opportunity to broaden my horizons."

Lu Changsheng nodded.

"The disciple understands."

Zhao Yuanshan then reminded him:

"However, you must remember this."

"Once you enter the Soul Hunter Forest, you are not allowed to act on your own."

"You're just an intern accompanying them right now."

"When you encounter a soul beast, observe it if you can, and don't be reckless."

Lu Changsheng nodded again.

"Yes."

Hearing this, Ning Rongrong was visibly pleased.

"Then it's settled."

"We'll leave first thing tomorrow morning."

After she finished speaking, she seemed to remember something and raised her little fist.

"Once I get my first spirit ring, we'll train again."

"You'll be shocked when the time comes."

Lu Changsheng looked at her and said calmly:

"Okay, I'll wait."

Ning Rongrong snorted and turned to find the support department teacher.

Zhao Yuanshan looked at Lu Changsheng and lowered his voice, saying:

"Chang Sheng, the sect leader also intends to observe you during this trip."

Lu Changsheng's eyes flickered slightly, somewhat puzzled.

"Observing me?"

Zhao Yuanshan nodded and explained:

"You and Miss Rongrong worked together very well. The sect leader has noticed."

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is a support sect. Sooner or later, its direct disciples will need trustworthy battle spirit masters by their side. You should understand what this means."

Lu Changsheng understood, of course.

Ning Fengzhi began to consider training him to become someone close to Ning Rongrong.

Whether as a bodyguard, a partner, or a future team member.

In short, he is no longer an ordinary disciple from outside the family.

This is both an opportunity and a constraint. The more training he receives from the sect, the deeper his connection with Ning Rongrong and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will become.

If he wants to change the Soul Hunting Operation and save the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in the future, this connection will be an aid. However, if he exposes the system or the sect discovers the anomaly, this connection may also become a chain.
