Nine Phantom Bells?
Ning Shu heard what Guang Ling said, and she looked at Guang Ling, somewhat confused, "Grandpa Guang Ling, I remember my martial soul wasn't like this before."
Why did things suddenly change?
Ning Shu thought to herself, "Could it be because I took that 'Leg-Stretching and Eye-Staring Pill'?"
Leg-stretching and eye-glaring pill?
What the hell?
Guangling and she exchanged a glance, and Guangling frowned.
The soul power, shimmering with golden threads and flowing light, was wrapped around the nine bells. If Guang Ling was not mistaken, this power was the same power that he had been tracking for a long time but had inadvertently entered Ning Shu's body.
Ning Shu's original martial soul was just an ordinary bell, but because she consumed that precious herb, it evolved into the Phantom Nine Bells, which makes sense.
But this girl is really carefree; she dares to eat anything, isn't she afraid of stuffing herself to death?
"The Nine Phantom Bells evolved from an ordinary bell martial soul. It has nine different bells, each with a different basic soul skill. In addition, since it is a treasure-type martial soul, the soul skills are fixed. The higher the age of the soul rings, the stronger the amplification of the soul skill effects. This is the same concept as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda martial soul."
Guangling patiently explained, "However, the Nine Bells of Illusion is not a purely support-type martial soul. It can involve several other types, but I am not very clear about the specific nine soul skills. You will need to figure that out yourself."
"Oh." Ning Shu nodded as if she understood, indicating that she understood. Thinking that Ma Hongjun was still staring at her, she didn't linger. "Grandpa Guangling, I'll go back to the academy now. We'll talk again next time."
She withdrew the soul power she had just released, picked up a piece of bread from the table, and prepared to leave.
"Wait, Xiao Ningshu."
Guangling called out to her and tossed her a small, ice-blue arrow. "This is a guiding arrow that I condensed with my soul power. If you need anything, you can use your soul power to activate it. As long as I'm not busy, I'll be there for you as soon as possible."
The arrow in her hand gleamed with an icy blue light, and a cool sensation seeped into her skin. Ning Shu looked at the arrow and nodded happily, "Yes, Grandpa, you're so kind!"
Guang Ling smiled indulgently, reached out and ruffled her hair, saying, "My whereabouts are not fixed, so it won't be easy for you to find me. Goodbye, little Ning Shu."
"Yes, thank you, Grandpa!" Ning Shu nodded, smiling broadly.
Wow, so this is a powerful member of the Spirit Hall! So gentle, I love him, I want to take him home!
Um? ?
Take it away?
A hint of amusement flashed in Guang Ling's eyes, but Ning Shu didn't pay it any mind. She waved to Guang Ling and then walked towards Ma Hongjun.
"Let's go, don't keep the dean and the others waiting."
Ning Shu seemed to be in a good mood. Ma Hongjun snapped out of his daze, his eyes wide. He looked back at Guang Ling several times, then at Ning Shu, and followed Ning Shu curiously, asking, "Ning Shu, who is that man?"
She's quite good-looking.
"You don't know her," Ning Shu said, her smile wide.
Ma Hongjun looked at her. He had never seen Ning Shu smile so happily before. He frowned and said, "Of course I know I don't know her, but didn't you like me? How come you've fallen for someone else so quickly?"
"Huh?" Ning Shu paused, frowned, and turned around, looking Ma Hongjun up and down as if she'd seen a ghost. "When did I ever like you? You're overthinking it."
"Didn't you say you'd be my wife from now on?" Ma Hongjun said, reciting what he had overheard earlier that day.
Ning Shu's lips twitched. [Is this person delusional?]
"Stop! I never said I liked you, let alone that I wanted to be your wife. Everyone in the academy knows I like Brother Mu Bai. You're not blind, how could you tell I like you?"
"."
Huh? You don't like him? Did he misunderstand?
Ma Hongjun blinked.
It's been a while since the new students entered the academy, and because he's been suppressing his evil fire, he hasn't had much contact with them.
Is he really misunderstanding?
Ma Hongjun looked at Ning Shu, who quickly said, "Although I don't know how you misunderstood, I really don't like you. It's better if we keep our distance, otherwise Brother Mubai will definitely misunderstand if he sees this!"
"Oh"
Ma Hongjun looked a little disappointed, but didn't say anything.
Seeing this, Ning Shu breathed a sigh of relief. [Thank goodness, with that scumbag Dai Mubai as a shield, it seems this connection does have some effect!]
???
Ma Hongjun was taken aback.
What?
Does she not like Dai Laoda?

The restaurant wasn't far from the Soto Arena, only about a ten-minute walk. Ning Shu and Ma Hongjun quickly arrived at the teahouse where everyone met Flander.
"Ning Shu!"
Ning Shu had only walked a hundred meters from the teahouse when Flander's serious expression and tone came into view.
Ning Shu walked towards Flander and said, "Dean."
"What were you doing?" Flander asked coldly.
"Everyone's working hard to complete the mission, what have you been doing?"
"I was hungry, so I went to get something to eat." Ning Shu answered truthfully, deliberately displaying the fearless aura of a young lady, just like Ning Rongrong at the beginning, self-righteous and without any intention of admitting her mistake.
After getting to know Guangling, Ning Shu became even more determined to join the Spirit Hall. This was an opportunity for her. Given Flander's personality in the original book, he definitely wouldn't tolerate her taking things for granted. If she could talk back when Flander got angry, she might be able to set sail tonight.
Ning Shu thought to herself with glee, "Quickly, scold me, kick me out! I've been waiting for you to say that!"
"."
After hearing this, everyone chose to remain silent.
Ning Shu has gone mad again.
This was what Dai Mubai thought, and it was also what Flander thought.
He looked at Ning Shu with a complicated expression, unable to understand why she wanted to be kicked out so badly. If she wanted to leave, why didn't she drop out of school? Why did she insist on being kicked out? Did she have masochistic tendencies?
Flander pondered for a moment. The students' mental health was something their teachers should care about. Perhaps Ning Shu had become like this because she had been treated unfairly at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. After all, Ning Fengzhi's letter back then made no mention of this cousin who also came from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
"Fine, it's fine if you're hungry, go get something to eat. But Ning Shu, do you really think you did nothing wrong today?"
One thing at a time, Flander believed he could be more lenient with Ning Shu, but this leniency was limited to reason and sentiment.
"I did nothing wrong!"
Ning Shu said confidently.
Although it's unclear why Flander let it go after she ran away to eat, things are thankfully still moving in a positive direction.
Ning Shu wore an expression that said, "I didn't do anything wrong," which made Flander frown. He shouted, "Ning Shu! This isn't the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School! This isn't a place where you can run wild!"
