Chapter 27 A Precious Sword Sharpened on Jade
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is always quiet at night. Apart from the patrolling guards, almost no one else walks around the school.
As night fell, on the arched bridge, a refined man dressed in blue held a small cloth bag in his hand. He smiled and took out fish food from the bag, tossing it down below.
Beneath the arched bridge lies a pond teeming with fish. The water is crystal clear, and numerous lotus blossoms float on its surface, adorned with lotus leaves. Among these, several lotus pods complete the picture of a perfectly rounded pond.
"Charm".
Standing beside the man was another silver-haired man. The two of them were Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and Chen Xin, one of the sect's guardian Douluo, who had been in the main hall earlier that day.
The two stood side by side. Ning Fengzhi always gave people the feeling of being a gentleman and gentle. He looked so refined as he fed the fish. Compared to Chen Xin, who stood next to him with a cold expression, he seemed much more approachable and had no airs of being the sect leader of a major sect.
When the fish had been fed enough, Ning Fengzhi stopped and slowly smiled, "Uncle Jian, you and I both understand Rongrong's temperament, and we also understand Ning Shu's temperament. What do you think of today's events?"
What do you think?
Chen Xin was silent for a while. "Ning Shu was raised by the Third Elder. If we're talking about understanding, only the Third Elder understands her best. However, Rongrong didn't really want to teach Ning Shu a lesson. She was just angry. She was mistreated at Shrek Academy."
"No one gets mistreated when they're out there," Ning Fengzhi said casually. "It's just that Rongrong is quite strong-willed. She wouldn't come back to tell anyone unless something really upset her."
"So, what Rongrong said about Ning Shu slandering the sect is most likely true?" Chen Xin asked.
Ning Fengzhi smiled slightly and did not express his opinion. "Rongrong has never known the truth about what happened a year ago. It's normal that there is some misunderstanding between her and Ning Shu."
Ning Fengzhi could easily imagine what would happen to Ning Shu at Shrek Academy.
He had previously written to Flander, telling him to work on Ning Rongrong's temper and not to worry about the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Now that Ning Rongrong has come back to complain, it's highly likely that Flander is using Ning Shu as a tool to polish Ning Rongrong. Both of them have some personality issues, so it might not be a bad thing for them to work on each other.
Mentioning what happened a year ago, Chen Xin also had something to say. He said, "Feng Zhi, you should tell Rong Rong about that matter. Now that Rong Rong and that child have met, and they're in the same academy and are friends, it wouldn't be good if a misunderstanding caused some unpleasantness, would it?"
"It's not the right time yet."
The moonlight shone down, illuminating Ning Fengzhi's face. He smiled slightly and said, "Let's bring up that matter from a year ago again when that child wants to come back to see the Third Elder."
"."
Chen Xin remained silent. The two looked up at the moon together, but didn't say anything more.
*
A few days later, at Shrek Academy.
Ning Rongrong and Oscar had not returned for a long time, and Zhao Wuji was inevitably worried. He went to find Flander, but was met with a nonchalant "Nothing will happen."
Zhao Wuji shook his head. Since Yu Xiaogang came, his work had become much easier, but he still felt a little upset when he thought about how Flander had tricked him out of ten gold soul coins.
I've worked for free again.
"Teacher! My soul power level has reached level 30!"
A joyful male voice rang out on the playground.
Zhao Wuji looked over and saw Tang San.
Upon hearing the sound, Yu Xiaogang hurried over. "Xiao San, you're level 30?!"
He grabbed Tang San's shoulder and exclaimed in surprise.
"Yes, teacher, I'm level 30!" Tang San nodded and answered seriously.
"Great! Great! Great!" Yu Xiaogang exclaimed three times, seemingly even more excited than Tang San himself. "Then let's get ready, and we'll set off tomorrow to hunt for a spirit ring for you!"
At this moment, Zhao Wuji walked over and said, "Master, Xiao San's third ring needs to be hunted in the Star Dou Great Forest. I'll take them there tomorrow."
"No, I'll go with you!" Yu Xiaogang's eyes revealed his passionate emotions.
He wanted to create spirit rings for Tang San so that Tang San would follow the path he had written!
"Okay, sure." Zhao Wuji nodded without saying anything more.
He whistled to gather the others.
Hearing the whistle, the others also rushed over.
"Teacher Zhao, is there anything I can help you with?"
It was Dai Mubai who spoke. They had only recently disbanded, and now they had gathered again. It was impossible that there was nothing going on.
Zhao Wuji nodded, "Xiao San's soul power level has reached level 30. You all prepare today, and we'll set off for the Star Dou Great Forest tomorrow to hunt for a soul ring for Xiao San."
"What? Little San, you're already level 30!" Dai Mubai exclaimed in surprise.
He put his arm around Tang San's shoulder and said happily, "Congratulations, Little San, on entering the world of Soul Master!"
"Wow, Third Brother, you're amazing!" Ma Hongjun exclaimed in admiration.
This is a monster!
"Third Brother, congratulations!" Xiao Wu said with a smile.
Tang San scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly. "Thank you all for your congratulations."
"."
Everyone surrounded Tang San, praising him to the skies, while Ning Shu remained speechless.
"No, it's just that a level 29 Soul Master leveled up to 30. Is there any need to be so happy? I leveled up three times in a row, and I didn't even show off. There are all kinds of birds in a big forest. Is this something to celebrate?"
???
Level 35!
Everyone present was stunned.
Tang San and the others were used to hearing Ning Shu's thoughts, so they weren't particularly surprised.
It was Zhao Wuji and Yu Xiaogang who were hearing Ning Shu's thoughts for the first and second time. Although everyone had a surprised expression on their faces, the reasons for their surprise were different.
However, Zhao Wuji and Yu Xiaogang looked at each other, realizing that they could hear Ning Shu's inner thoughts, and after observing the expressions of the other little monsters, it was clear that they could hear them too.
It doesn't seem to be anything special.
Yu Xiaogang looked at Ning Shu with deep eyes.
Ning Shu exchanged a glance with him, then looked away. "Teacher Zhao, is there anything else? If not, I'll go back and rest."
"No, that's all," Zhao Wuji replied blankly. Although everyone could hear him, he still felt a little uncomfortable.
"Okay, I'm leaving now."
After saying that, Ning Shu prepared to turn and leave.
At this moment, Yu Xiaogang spoke up, "Ning Shu, wait, I have something I want to ask you."
"."
Ning Shu had no choice but to stop. She turned around, rolled her eyes, and asked, "Master, what is it?"
