Apology

Chapter 15 Apology

"Feng Zhi... no! Sect Master, I have failed in my duties, please punish me!"

The middle-aged man's face was ashen.

It wasn't the poison affecting his heart, but rather the bitterness of being defeated by a Soul Master.

"It's not your fault. New talents emerge constantly, and who would have thought this child would possess a soul bone? Everyone, get up!"

Ning Fengzhi stepped forward and helped him up, without any intention of blaming him. At the same time, he immediately pointed out the key point.

Ning Fengzhi turned around and smiled gently, "Little friend, your martial soul is a sword, so how could you absorb such a soul bone? As far as I know, the soul bone of the Human-Faced Demon Spider is not a good match for you."

Chen Feng sneered, "This has nothing to do with your sect!"

Ning Fengzhi smiled and said, "Why are we speaking like two different people when we're family?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he gently raised his hand, and two more beams of amplifying light fell on Chen Feng.

Chen Feng instantly felt a gentle power fill his entire body, and in just a moment, all the soul power he had just consumed was restored.

"Who said we're family? Don't think that just because you restored some of my soul power, I'll change my impression of you." Chen Feng curled his lip. He wouldn't forget how the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had just treated him, even if his memory was terrible.

Surprisingly, Ning Fengzhi was not angry. Instead, he said solemnly, "Actually, when the conflict first started, Uncle Jian and I noticed it. We have seen the whole story clearly. The fault does not lie with you, so please allow me to apologize to you on behalf of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."

After saying that, he actually faced Chen Feng and slowly bowed down.

"metropolitan!"

"That won't do!"

Everyone around was immediately taken aback.

That's Ning Fengzhi! He actually apologized to a Soul Master? Are you sure you're not mistaken?

Ning Fengzhi said in a slightly reproachful tone, "Why not? There is no difference in status when it comes to right and wrong. Even the emperor can issue an edict of self-reproach, so why can't I? Besides, it was the sect that was at fault first."

After saying that, he slowly bowed to Chen Feng.

Chen Feng frowned, trying to move his feet, but a powerful force held him in place, unable to move.

Dust Wind couldn't help but look at Sword Douluo.

This elder from the same clan, whom he should address as grandfather according to seniority, nodded to him with a barely perceptible gesture.

"Kid, that's enough. Let's detoxify first."

Sword Douluo's cool voice served as a timely reminder.

It must be said that Ning Fengzhi is truly a man of consistent virtue and character, worthy of being chosen by the Heaven Dou Empire as the Crown Prince's tutor.

If Chen Feng was still resentful before, it would be inappropriate for him to hold onto it after Ning Fengzhi's sincere efforts to resolve the situation.

Chen Feng touched his nose and re-inserted the Eight Spider Spears into the middle-aged man's skin, but this time, instead of releasing poison, he was collecting it.

In the blink of an eye, the purplish-black toxin flowed back from the middle-aged man's blood vessels and was absorbed back into the Eight Spider Spears.

Ning Fengzhi then asked, "What's the deal with Rongrong's token?"

Chen Feng recounted how Ning Rongrong gave him the token, and also told Ning Fengzhi the location of Shrek Academy.

"Flander, Zhao Wuji, these guys were all troublemakers back in the day, and they made a name for themselves in the Soul Master world. With their protection, Rongrong will be fine unless she's a Title Douluo." Ning Fengzhi nodded in relief.

Sword Douluo, however, remained unconvinced and said, "What's their skill level? Are they capable of teaching Rongrong? I think we should send that old guy Bone over there to take a look when we get back. If it's really not working out, bring her back, and I'll teach her myself!"

"Oh, Uncle Jian! Not everyone can compare to you! Rongrong is all grown up now, just let her be."

Ning Fengzhi shook his head helplessly. Ning Rongrong had a nickname in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School: "Little Witch." This was entirely due to being spoiled by Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo. Ning Fengzhi, out of consideration for the identities of the two powerful figures, didn't say much.

Then, Ning Fengzhi waved his hand, dispersing the bystanders and leaving only Chen Feng behind.

"Although some misunderstandings arose, they are ultimately harmless. Chen Feng, welcome to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"

Ning Fengzhi smiled gently.

Chen Feng shook his head without giving him any face and said, "Sect Master Ning, there are two conditions for me to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."

"Conditions? Uh, you tell me." Ning Fengzhi was taken aback.

Sword Douluo retorted irritably, "Everyone else is eager to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, but why are you setting conditions?"

Chen Feng said, "When I argued with that Hall Master Ning before, I said that if he wanted me to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School again, firstly, Hall Master Ning would apologize to me, and secondly, he would ask me to be an elder. Although it was said in anger, I, Chen Feng, always keep my word. If I join the sect in a muddled way, wouldn't there be other people who would insult and bully me in the future?"

"Chen Feng, you're overthinking it. That Hall Master Ning is one of my cousins. The reason he treated you like that before was because there was a precedent of someone impersonating a martial soul. He couldn't be sure that you really have the Seven Kill Sword martial soul," Ning Fengzhi explained.

Chen Feng nodded and said, "He was also thinking of the sect, which I can understand, but that's no excuse to deceive me. I also have my own principles."

Chen Feng's tough attitude was unexpected, but instead of making Ning Fengzhi feel disgusted, he burst into laughter.

For an ordinary person to be so arrogant is simply conceit.

But if a genius says that, then it's confidence.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School certainly welcomes geniuses, especially those with the Seven Kill Sword Martial Soul!

"The arrogance of the Seven Kill Sword is also passed down from generation to generation!"

Ning Fengzhi looked at Sword Douluo as he spoke.

Sword Douluo hesitated for a moment. No matter what, Ning Fengzhi was the sect leader after all, and regardless of the reason, he had to protect Ning Fengzhi.

"Chen Feng, if you stay at the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, I will wholeheartedly teach you the Seven Kill Sword Technique. What use are other empty titles?" Sword Douluo said.

Chen Feng shook his head again. To be honest, he didn't need anyone to teach him soul skills or combat experience. He had accumulated enough strength in his previous life. Chen Xin was only a level 97 Title Douluo in the end. No matter how strong he was, how could he compare to a level 99 Peerless Douluo?

On the contrary, those empty titles are the most useful to him. The second task of the God of Asura is to make him win the championship of the All-Continent Youth Elite Soul Master Competition. If he doesn't have certain titles, how can he easily win over some talented teammates?

Seeing Chen Feng shake his head, Chen Xin said with an unfriendly expression, "What? Can't I teach you myself?"

"Grandpa Sword, I didn't mean anything by it. It's just that when it comes to soul skills and combat experience, I believe I've already reached the pinnacle and there's nothing more for me to learn!" Chen Feng thought for a moment and still boasted.

In the world of Soul Masters, strength is still paramount, and one must be a little arrogant when it's time to be high-profile.

Remember to check back every day, everyone! It's especially important to read during the new book launch period. If you have any votes, casting one or two wouldn't hurt, haha, thanks...

P.S.: The bug issue will be resolved later.
