The Tree Realm Descends on Douluo Continent

Chapter 49 Transforming the Spirit Hall into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School

"No need," Li Xun and Dugu Bo said in unison, interrupting Ning Fengzhi's daydreams about the future.

After they finished speaking, they looked at each other and both understood what the other was thinking.

"What's wrong?" Ning Fengzhi asked, startled.

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo were also somewhat puzzled. A Title Douluo entering a sect should be treated with the utmost respect, no matter where he is. If he showed the slightest disrespect, others might think he didn't value them.

Furthermore, this is also a way to demonstrate strength to other forces.

"Xiao Xun, you tell me, and I'll add anything I don't understand." Dugu Bo coughed lightly, covering his mouth.

He didn't know much about the Spirit Hall, and he had only just learned about their strength from Li Xun. If he spoke rashly, he might make a fool of himself.

"That's right."

Li Xun immediately repeated what he had said to Dugu Bo.

Since the three members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School knew that Qian Daoliu was a Limit Douluo, Li Xun's description mainly focused on the number and strength of the Title Douluos of the Spirit Hall.

Dugu Bo also chimed in at the opportune moment, sharing the information he knew about his contemporaries.

"There are so many titles."

Ning Fengzhi was startled. He knew the Spirit Hall was very powerful; Qian Daoliu alone was a fearsome figure. This was also the reason why he always emphasized the close ties between the three upper sects.

Because only Tang Chen of the Haotian Sect could suppress Qian Daoliu.

Now that the Clear Sky Sect has closed its mountain, there's a Limit Douluo left unattended, not to mention sixteen or seventeen Title Douluos. Just thinking about this situation is enough to make one feel helpless.

It seems I need to contact the Haotian Sect as soon as possible, Ning Fengzhi thought to himself.

Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo both frowned, their thoughts churning.

Sword Douluo is even more so.

His father, Chen Jianjun, a level 98 Title Douluo, died from severe injuries sustained while challenging Qian Daoliu. Although his father told him not to seek revenge before he died, how could he accept it?

However, his current strength is insufficient, and he has not even reached the level where his father was defeated.

He had no choice but to bury his desire for revenge deep in his heart, waiting for the day when he could personally go to the Spirit Hall to meet that level 99 Limit Douluo, just like his father.

But Li Xun's words today shattered his original plan.

He may have to face not only Qian Daoliu in the future, but also a group of experts from the Spirit Hall.

After all, the Spirit Hall wasn't this powerful when his father challenged Qian Daoliu.

"If what Xiao Xun said is true, then we can only ask Senior Dugu to make do for now."

After a brief silence, Ning Fengzhi said in a deep voice, "I have been on guard against the Spirit Hall all these years, but I never expected such a huge oversight in our intelligence. This allowed the Spirit Hall to expand its strength to such an extent without us even noticing."

"Now that Senior Dugu has joined us, it can be a backup plan for us. I still need to contact the Haotian Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect to warn them to be on high alert as well."

"Alas! The Spirit Hall is now very powerful. Only by uniting the three upper sects can we gain a chance to breathe in this situation."

Here it comes, Li Xun rolled his eyes. It's time to prune the tangled branches!

Ning Fengzhi probably doesn't realize that getting involved with the Haotian Sect will bring him misfortune. Li Xun needs time to develop; after all, even if he develops quickly, he won't be a match for a titled opponent when the Soul Hunting Operation arrives.

"Teacher, I've always had a question: what grudge does our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School have against the Spirit Hall?" Li Xun gathered his thoughts and slowly began to speak.

Ning Fengzhi was taken aback, seemingly not expecting his disciple to ask him this question.

However, as his most outstanding disciple and the future pillar of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he also needs to let the other party know about the general situation of the world and his own family's grudges.

"Xiao Xun, the Spirit Hall is ambitious and has long harbored the ambition to unify the continent, as well as the grudge against your grandfather, Sword Douluo." Ning Fengzhi glanced at Sword Douluo, and seeing that the other party nodded, he then told him about the grudges between his fathers.

"So, in other words, as long as Qian Daoliu dies, we'll have no more grudges with the Spirit Hall, right?" Li Xun pretended to think.

Ning Fengzhi was taken aback by Li Xun's words; he hadn't expected Li Xun's idea to be so simple and straightforward.

"Xiao Xun, things aren't that simple." Ning Fengzhi's mood gradually calmed down, and he prepared to explain the pros and cons to Li Xun.

"The Spirit Hall's ambitions are about to overflow, and sooner or later it will provoke conflict on the continent. Only by uniting the three upper sects and jointly resisting the Spirit Hall can we contain it before the situation becomes irreversible."

Li Xun rubbed his face. It was very difficult to reason with someone with such a rigid mindset, so he decided to take drastic measures.

"Teacher, what does the Spirit Hall's plan to unify the continent have to do with us?"

Ning Fengzhi chuckled. Although his apprentice was reliable, he was still too young to understand the intricacies of the situation.

However, as a teacher, he needs to guide them at this time.

"The Spirit Hall's desire to unify the continent will inevitably lead to war with the Heaven Dou Empire."

"Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is located in the Heaven Dou region and has close ties with the royal family. If the Heaven Dou region is defeated, we will likely face a purge by the Spirit Hall."

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

Li Xun frowned: "Then why don't we just stop helping the Heavenly Dou royal family? These nobles aren't exactly good people either."

"Let them fight if they want to."

"I once heard a saying: 'Help the strong, not the weak.' With the Spirit Hall's strength, Heaven Fight is bound to lose. Why should we sacrifice ourselves for Heaven Fight?"

"Moreover, without our involvement, the war might have lasted even shorter and the harm to civilians could have been reduced."

It's always the ordinary people who suffer in war, and the longer it lasts, the greater the harm to them. The war between the Spirit Hall and the Heavenly Dou forces isn't like a foreign invasion; whoever wins, wins.

If the Spirit Hall were to unify the continent, would ordinary people's lives be even worse?

"Xiao Xun, you're oversimplifying things."

Ning Fengzhi frowned. He felt that Li Xun's words made some sense, but he also felt that something was not quite right.

He sorted out his thoughts.

"After the Spirit Hall unifies the continent, it will inevitably see us as an unstable factor and will therefore consolidate and eliminate all the major sects. When the nest is overturned, how can any egg remain intact?"

"Teacher, I've thought of a way. Do you think it's feasible?"

Li Xun pondered for a moment, then, seeing everyone looking at him, said, "If we pretend to join the Spirit Hall to avoid becoming its adversary, and then find an opportunity to kill Qian Daoliu, Chrysanthemum Douluo, and Ghost Douluo, we can avenge Grandpa Sword and Grandpa Dugu."

"Do you think this is feasible?"

Of course, Sendo Ryu would have sacrificed himself to death without anyone else doing so.

Li Xun said this to offer everyone a way out, a way to save face and avoid a direct confrontation with the Spirit Hall.

Otherwise, given Ning Fengzhi and the others' concern and pride for their sect, they probably wouldn't have backed down even if they knew the strength of the Spirit Hall.

Silence fell over everyone present.

In their minds, battles between Soul Masters required a direct confrontation, and the only way for factions to fight was through conflict. They had never even considered such an opportunistic method.

Before they could finish thinking, Li Xun continued, "Teacher, three grandfathers, think about it, as long as we're alive, isn't everywhere the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?"

"With your abilities, are you sure you can't lead us to a place in the Spirit Hall?"

"Once Rongrong, Sister Yan, and I grow up, with our sect's seven or eight titles combined, who wouldn't fear us?"

"Turning the Spirit Hall into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School wouldn't be out of the question!"
