Douluo Continent: All I Do Is Destroy Rings is Skill.

"Speaking of which, I haven't given you a gift yet. Today is an important day, so this is my apology gift. I hope you will accept it, Ning Tian."

"Soul Bone!"

Ning Tian exclaimed, covering his mouth with his left hand to hide his rudeness, his eyes fixed on the right arm bone that emitted a few stars in the darkness.

What is a Soul Bone? A treasure of the Blood River!

A treasure that could ignite a war between two small kingdoms ten thousand years ago! A priceless treasure even today!

But Ning Wuque took out this as a gift to apologize and handed it to himself...

Not far away, Wu Feng, who had been leaning against a tree trunk looking dejected, straightened up and stared intently at the soul bone. This was a treasure that even his father only had one of!

"This, Wuque, you..."

"This is just an ordinary right arm bone from a thousand years ago. I originally planned to use it to exchange for a better treasure in the sect's treasury, but the resources you gave me have prevented me from exchanging it."

Ning Wuque spoke casually, as if the soul bone in his hands was less valuable than those rare and precious materials that could help him temper his body:

"It's such a waste for you to absorb this. Maybe you can keep it as a collectible in your room? Take it, but don't you dare take revenge on me after you do."

"No way! I'll definitely get my revenge, you're dreaming!"

As Ning Tian spoke, he didn't reach out to take it, but instead proudly raised his head.

She wanted to refuse because the soul bone would definitely be of great help to Ning Wuque. After all, the fusion of soul bones can greatly improve the physical fitness of a soul master, even if it is only a thousand-year-old soul bone!

This is exactly what Ning Wuque needs!

Ning Wuque didn't give Ning Tian a chance to refuse. He reached out and grabbed Ning Tian's hand, pressing the soul bone into her palm as he explained:

"I can't absorb soul bones. I have my concerns. The help you've given me these past few days is more than enough to buy a ten-thousand-year soul bone. Take it, Ning Tian."

"You... Feng Mei, you should absorb this soul bone. I don't need it."

Ning Tian accepted it. Looking at Ning Wuque's serious expression, she understood that what he said was probably true; the soul bone was useless to him.

However, she turned her head and threw the soul bone to Wu Feng, who had been watching from a distance, and told him to absorb it.

In the distance, Wu Feng steadily caught the priceless Blood River Treasure, staring at the two in disbelief.

She was shocked that Ning Wuque was actually willing to give such a thing to Ning Tian.

She was shocked that Ning Tian would actually let her absorb this soul bone.

She was shocked, no, she was saddened. What was this? The token of their love was entrusted to a mutual friend for safekeeping?

She doesn't want such a soul bone! Isn't this just rubbing salt into her wounds?

"Is there no problem, Wuque? It would be a waste to treat it as a collectible. My father's soul bones happen to contain a piece of his right arm bone, which I will inherit in the future."

"Of course, no problem. I'll give it to you. You can do whatever you want with it."

Ning Wu nodded without minding. Using the soul bone was the best option, and letting Wu Feng absorb it was a good choice.

Since she wouldn't practice her own "Ninefold Yama's Gate" anyway, she had no worries about absorbing soul bones.

Thus, Ning Tian's gaze softened even more as he looked at Ning Wuque. He was willing to give up such a precious treasure without hesitation, so perhaps his sincerity would not be betrayed by him.

The way she looked at him was almost overflowing with affection.

But the more this happened, the less Wu Fengbie, who was holding the soul bone not far away, wanted to absorb it. Damn it, this bastard Ning Wuque knows how to please little girls too well!

Hey!

.........

"Grandpa Bone, I think I can raise the stakes."

"I think it's a good idea too. I think Wuque is a good kid. Tian'er won't suffer if she goes with him."

Not far away, two old Dengs were also dumbfounded.

They never expected this turn of events; Ning Wuque was actually willing to give Ning Tian the Soul Bone as an apology gift.

Good heavens, this is enough to fool a Shrek Academy prodigy into being completely devoted to him.

In Douluo Continent, what standard can be used to measure the affection between two people?

A: Soul Bone!

.........

"Wuque, I like you..."

Ning Tian leaned forward, placed his hands on Ning Wuque's chest, and confessed his love to him in a gentle tone—a more formal confession.

Standing before her, Ning Wuque gazed at her, nodded, and silently accepted her confession.

-------

Time flies.

After the confession that day, the two continued to behave as usual within the sect, and were not foolish enough to interact intimately in front of everyone.

All of this can wait until after leaving the sect and going to Shrek Academy.

Wu Feng silently accepted everything and absorbed the thousand-year-old soul bone with tears in his eyes.

Although it's not quite there yet, soul bones are something that are rare and hard to come by, so having one is already a blessing.

And so, two months later, on the eve of Shrek Academy's enrollment period.

With seven days left until registration for Shrek Academy, three young people from the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School embarked on a journey together.

Meanwhile, two Soul Douluo elders secretly accompanied them, protecting them on their journey.

"Let's go to the Star Dou Great Forest first and hunt down my third spirit ring, then we'll go to Shrek Academy to enroll. Wuque, what do you think?"

"Why not just go directly to the sect's Soul Hunting Forest?"

"Ah... I guess it's because I wanted to experience what it feels like to be protected by you. At worst, I can just have my father send someone to bring me a suitable soul beast later. It's alright."

Ning Tian waved his hand, seemingly unconcerned.

Although the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School is far less prestigious than it was ten thousand years ago during the era of the Three Schools, its foundation is still quite strong, and it is top-notch in terms of wealth.

Is it really that difficult to send someone a thousand-year-old soul beast?

"OK."

Ning Wuque nodded enviously. This is what a young lady from a wealthy family is like—so willful.

Beside him, Wu Feng spoke much less after the two of them got together, but his enthusiasm for training became even stronger.

Although the relationship between the three has changed to some extent, it remains very stable under Ning Tian's mediation, but it may never be able to return to what it was before.

"Starry Sky Forest..."

On the way, Ning Wuque looked up and gazed in the direction of the Star Dou Great Forest, his thoughts wandering.

At this point, the story might begin, and I wonder if I'll meet the "protagonist" of this era there.

And what attitude should I adopt towards him?

It is because of his future actions that we feel disgust or ignore him.

Or should we befriend him before he's changed by the people and things around him? Like Wu Feng, and try to bring about some change in him?

Ning Wuque was unaware that he had never considered these things before, just as Wu Feng and Ning Tian had never considered them before they took the initiative to get to know him.
