After a brief silence, the quiet atmosphere caused by Ning Rongrong's stunning performance was instantly broken, and excited discussions broke out.

"Ninth level of innate soul power, what a terrifying talent. According to the sect's records, this is probably the peak of innate soul power for a support-type martial soul."

"That's right. Although there are monsters like those born with full soul power, even those big, dumb guys in the offensive type might not be able to awaken it, so it's normal that we support type are a little behind."

"It seems that with Miss Rongrong's talent, she will surely be able to support the future of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and maintain our sect's honor as one of the top three sects. It's just that her personality is a bit..."

"Keep your voice down. If Miss Rongrong hears you, you'll be in big trouble. Besides, with Miss Rongrong's talent and status, a little bit of willfulness is nothing. Compared to the elaborate tricks played by the spoiled sons of the royal family and other powerful families, it's just a kitten compared to a big cat."

"Actually, the quirky and clever young lady is quite cute..."

"Well……"

Ning Rongrong's amazing talent caused the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to cheer and discuss it.

However, some inappropriate remarks were mixed in, but they were quickly drowned out.

Standing in the very center of the venue, Ning Rongrong wore a cute light yellow dress, revealing her fair legs. She stood gracefully and was extremely adorable.

He didn't feel pressured by the cheers; instead, he slightly raised his chin and scanned the crowd.

The arrogance in his eyes was not diminished in the slightest by the soft colors of the robes he wore.

Only when he saw Ning Fengzhi and the other two walking towards him did he gradually disperse and greet them with a smile.

"Daddy, Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone, aren't I amazing?!"

"Our Rongrong is definitely amazing. Without exaggeration, you are the most talented support-type Soul Master I have seen in all these years. Your father is far inferior. You will definitely stand at the top and be admired and respected by everyone in the future."

Sword Douluo stepped forward first, raised his hand to pat Ning Rongrong's head, and said with a smile.

"Uncle Jian, I admit that Rongrong is more talented than me, but to stand at the top, talent alone is not enough. He also needs the right opportunities and hard work. Everything has to be done slowly. Too high expectations and praise can easily lead the child astray."

Ning Fengzhi spoke up at this moment, his tone tinged with helplessness. Although he also doted on Ning Rongrong, he understood the principle of moderation.

only……

Upon hearing these words, Bone Douluo, who was standing next to Ning Fengzhi, frowned slightly and showed dissatisfaction on his face.

"Fengzhi, what do you mean by that? Our Rongrong is so smart, how could the situation you described happen?"

Besides, isn't it only natural for someone with high talent to be praised? How could she possibly lose her way? I think praise will only motivate Rongrong to work harder and grow.

Before Sword Douluo Chen Xin, who had been refuted earlier, could speak, Bone Douluo, who had always opposed him, immediately expressed his support.

This shows Ning Rongrong's status.

Sword Douluo nodded with a smile, "Old Bones, although you're usually unreliable, you're surprisingly clear-headed in situations like this, even more so than Feng Zhi."

Seeing the two people in front of him negating the effect of his original teachings with their back-and-forth arguments, Ning Fengzhi was utterly helpless.

Rongrong's mother passed away early, and due to some neglect in her upbringing, now that the child is grown up, the father's influence has diminished considerably.

With these two old men who dote on their daughter, Rongrong's good foundation is the reason she didn't become a troublemaker.

However, things are now showing signs of turning sour.

Therefore, as the sect leader and a father, he still had to repeatedly emphasize certain things to his child, who was also the successor to the sect leader.

"Rongrong, I'll say it again: although it's difficult to stand at the top without enough talent on the continent, it doesn't mean that talent alone is enough."

If you don't put in the corresponding effort to realize your talents, you may reach a certain level and then stagnate. I don't want you to regret it when you're old.

"Yes, yes, don't worry, I will keep your words in mind. Thank you Grandpa Sword and Grandpa Bone for your expectations of me. I will not let you down."

Although Ning Rongrong is somewhat willful due to family reasons and the pampering of his elders, he is intelligent and has already learned a lot at a young age.

Otherwise, during her growth in the original timeline, she wouldn't have seen so many people approach her with ill intentions, her personality would have become unpredictable, and she would have liked to pretend, simply because she didn't want others to understand her completely.

Therefore, under the loving care of everyone and the earnest guidance of her father, she was filled with a passion for self-improvement and felt she had to cultivate herself well to repay those who loved and cared for her.

"Look, Fengzhi, everyone says our Rongrong is the smartest and most well-behaved."

"Everyone says Rongrong is a good kid, and she certainly won't let us old folks down."

Chen Xin and Gu Rong saw Ning Rongrong's adorable appearance, which revealed a hardworking and positive spirit in her youthful face, and their hearts softened. They chuckled softly.

Ning Fengzhi nodded in satisfaction.

He could hear the determination in Ning Rongrong's heart at this moment, and it was no wonder that everyone doted on her so much.

Although children may only have a fleeting interest, they can be guided gradually.

In the process of teaching, isn't it also about gradually inspiring their desire to improve, strengthening their resolve to improve, and ensuring they follow through on their efforts to improve?

"It's a pity that among the disciples who have awakened in recent years, they are far inferior to those of my time. This year, apart from Rongrong, there isn't even a single one at the seventh level of the Innate Realm. Alas!"

Ultimately, Rongrong possesses the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the strongest support-type martial soul of our sect, renowned throughout the continent. If she wants to reach even greater heights, without cultivating reliable partners beforehand, her future will be fraught with difficulties.

While Ning Fengzhi was happy, he also thought about the results of this martial soul awakening and the martial soul awakening in previous years, and felt a little worried.

If things continue to develop this way, Rongrong may not be able to find a Soul Master teammate who can cooperate well with her, or even become her partner.

After all, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's current fame throughout the continent is not only due to the treasures it controls through its martial soul characteristics and its strong support capabilities, but also inseparable from the strong support of the two pillars of white jade, Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Bone Douluo Gu Rong, who were trained by his father's generation.

At the same time, from a broader perspective, geniuses will not disappear, they will only shift.

If the number of geniuses produced by one's own sect has decreased in recent years, it is very likely that it will be swallowed up by other forces, and the one that has swallowed the most is naturally the Spirit Hall, which dominates the continent.

It's obvious that all the geniuses have been discovered by the Spirit Hall. The speed at which sects can discover geniuses is still too slow.

Even though he had been determined to reform over the years, since he couldn't defeat the Spirit Hall, he resorted to imitation methods and sent people to discover geniuses.

However, the Spirit Hall's first-mover advantage was still too great, and the resistance from within the sects was also considerable.

Ultimately, if outside geniuses consume more resources, the descendants of those interconnected factions within the sect will have to consume less.

These actions are wrong, but those people have indeed devoted their efforts to the growth of the sect, so it's not appropriate to deal with them too harshly.

Of course, if a top-tier genius appears that you can't afford to miss, Ning Fengzhi can still be ruthless towards some clueless individuals.

"Fengzhi, don't worry too much. We old guys can hold on for a long time. We'll definitely make sure Rongrong grows up smoothly and we'll find some reliable geniuses. Don't worry."

Sword Douluo noticed Ning Fengzhi's worry.

As a high-ranking member of the sect, he could naturally see the problems the sect had encountered in its development over the years. He immediately patted Ning Fengzhi on the shoulder to comfort him, saying that he and the other old guys could still hold on for a long time.

"I hope so."

Ning Fengzhi sighed softly. Top geniuses who can successfully grow into Title Douluo are not so easy to find and cultivate.

Especially given the superficial alliance with the Spirit Hall and the loss of the powerful figures from the Clear Sky Sect, there were too many obstacles hindering them.

"Report! I have important news to report to the Sect Master and the two retainers."

Just then, a guard walked in, knelt down on one knee not far from the four, and reported.

As he spoke, he took out a token engraved with a sword and presented it to the four of them.

"This is……"

Sword Douluo Chen Xin saw the token in the guard's hand again and felt that it looked familiar. After thinking for a moment, some memories came to mind, and he murmured to himself.

"It seems to be the token I gave to that interesting little guy who has some swordsmanship talent, is a bit stubborn, and has a lot of personality. Over the years, although that little guy has sent some small gifts every year, he hasn't shown any intention of trying to curry favor with me. Now it's..."

Ning Fengzhi noticed Sword Douluo Chen Xin's reaction, his eyes flashed slightly, and then he spoke to the guard.

"Speak, what is it? And what is that token in your hand?"

"Reporting to the Sect Master, a Soul Master with four rings has arrived outside. He is riding in this token and says that it was given to him by the Sword Douluo Elder, who wishes to meet the Elder."

He also mentioned that his child awakened a top-tier sword martial spirit this year, possessing innate full soul power, and he wanted to see if he could become the disciple of his ancestor.

The guard briefly recounted what had happened to him, making sure not to omit any key information.

This involves top-tier sword spirits, top geniuses with innate full soul power, and titled Douluo offerings; it cannot be taken lightly.

Although he couldn't quite understand how a four-ring Soul Master could be related to a Title Douluo, it was best not to dwell on such gossip involving the sect's higher-ups.

"Hiss!" "Hiss!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the guard heard two gasps of surprise.

The once gentle sect leader and the dignified Sword Douluo were now just as shocked as when he first heard the news.

Only Gu Rong, who enjoyed watching Chen Xin's antics, subconsciously asked, "Where is that person?"

The guard replied, "The distinguished guest who knows the temple has been invited to wait in the side hall."

"good!"

The next moment, a flash of sword light appeared, and a figure disappeared, leaving only a voice echoing in the same spot.

"This...this is a blessing from heaven for our sect. We were worried about the issue of successors, but we didn't expect that Uncle Jian's old friend would come to visit and bring a top genius with him."

The shock on Ning Fengzhi's face faded, replaced by anticipation. He laughed heartily.

Bone Douluo smiled and said, "A peerless genius with innate full soul power and a top-level sword martial soul, who wouldn't be tempted by him? If a genius with innate full soul power appeared who also plays with space, I would do the same. The old swordsman is very lucky."

"Well, since Uncle Jian is personally handling matters with his old friend, if everything is true, he can not only gain a peerless genius as a disciple, but also lay the foundation for the future of the sect. I really look forward to meeting such a genius."

Although the shock on Ning Fengzhi's face had faded, his heart was still surging with passion. Looking at Ning Rongrong beside him, whose face was filled with curiosity, he thought to himself.

Rongrong is not only exceptionally talented, but also incredibly lucky. Just when the sect was about to run out of geniuses, a peerless genius was delivered right to their doorstep.

She truly is my daughter.

……

Meanwhile, in Daoxiang Village, Lin Yao had already returned home and was unaware that his father had found him a powerful patron.

It is still one of the best support teams of this era, capable of solving problems that arise in the early and mid-stages of growth without anyone noticing.

"Xiao Yao, your performance in awakening your martial spirit today was so outstanding, we must celebrate properly. And we might have guests coming over. Let me make something delicious first, and then we can celebrate properly. Go and rest."

Zhao Wan, who had also returned home, couldn't help but kiss her outstanding child on the cheek and whispered something.

"Also, since you've just awakened, you're bound to have a lot of curiosity about exploring your own martial soul. But you must also be careful because you don't have any spirit rings yet, and your spirit power is limited. Don't play around with it for too long and cause excessive consumption."

"I understand, Mom."

Lin Yao sensed the concern in the words, nodded earnestly in response, and then returned to his room.

In fact, given his spirit, he was quite familiar with the Star Sword when he awakened his martial soul and summoned it.

He is now looking forward to his second martial soul.

Standing in the open space beside the bed in the room, Lin Yao raised his hand and gently touched his chest, feeling the vitality emanating from it, and whispered.

"My second martial soul! Martial soul possession!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Yao felt a burning sensation surge in his chest.

A dazzling starlight shone from his chest, and then, from there, the silvery-white starlight patterns spread out along his meridians to his limbs and bones.

Wherever the light flowed, a tingling warmth spread through my limbs and bones, as if every pore was breathing in and out starlight.

"Is this my second martial soul, the Stellar Body?"

Lin Yao raised his hand, and in his palm was a rotating star map, with countless miniature stars flickering within it.

As the martial soul continued to possess him, a faint nebula appeared around him, and his hair was dyed a translucent silver-blue by starlight.

His pupils reflected the shimmering starlight, and even his breath carried tiny particles of light.

At this moment, he seemed no longer to be a human being of flesh and blood, but a powerful being who could wield the power of the stars and hold them in the palm of his hand.

Clenching your fist, you can clearly feel the power of the stars surging through your meridians, and each heartbeat resonates with the flickering of the star map in your palm.

Of course, Lin Yao knew that this was an illusion caused by his unfamiliarity with his own power, and that he still had a long way to go to truly reach that level.

Looking out the window at the sky, even though it was daytime, he could see countless stars hanging high in the sky.

It seemed near yet far, and one could almost feel the rhythm of life breathing in the core of the star.

That was a resonance unique to the Star Body, a manifestation of the most vast power in the world corresponding to his powerful physique.

It can slowly absorb the power of stars reflected down from high above, strengthen the body's foundation, and gradually accumulate and strengthen the body.

That's a physique with enormous potential.

Moreover, according to my knowledge from my previous life, isn't the sun high in the sky the most dazzling star?

However, this power was too great, and it was too much for him to handle at the moment.

Stellar Body!

Lin Yao is now very confused.

I don't even know how my martial soul awakened this terrifying physique containing endless potential and explosive power. I feel that if I grow up, I can rank among the top in all the heavens and myriad worlds.

Of course, being limited by the Douluo world, if growth is simply a matter of numbers, it will definitely be far inferior to other worlds. The only solution is to work on the mechanics.

But to some extent, he can indeed transcend the limitations of this world. With the support of other worlds, who knows how far he can go in the future?!

Perhaps, we could raise the stars as babies.

If the Star Sword is still within Lin Yao's understanding, it is a top-tier martial soul that is born from the combination and enhancement of the advantages of his father's and mother's martial souls, and can even reach the god level later.

Without exaggeration, that Star Body is a god-level martial soul.

However, it is very likely that his own weakness has limited the potential of these two powerful martial souls, and his innate soul power is only at level ten.

However, in terms of growth potential, both far surpass Qian Renxue's six-winged angel martial soul, which could support her becoming the second-generation angel god.
