86: Chapter 86 Ning Rongrong's Letter, Ning Fengzhi Goes to Shrek Academy

Inside the main hall of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

"Reporting to the Sect Master, a letter from the Young Sect Master has arrived."

A young Disciple held the letter with both hands and presented it respectfully.

"Rongrong's letter?" Ning Fengzhi took the letter and waved the Disciple away.

"Fengzhi, open it quickly and see. Has Rongrong been wronged at the academy? If that is the case, this old man will go and level that Shrek Academy right now." Bone Douluo stood up, his black robes billowing without wind.

He had always regarded Ning Rongrong as his own granddaughter. If anyone dared to bully her, he would surely grind them into dust.

Chen Xin, standing to the side, did not speak, but the Sword Qi faintly surging around his body said everything.

"Uncle Bone, Uncle Sword, please calm down." Ning Fengzhi smiled helplessly.

He then tore open the envelope, took out the letter, and unfolded it.

As he read further, Ning Fengzhi's brows furrowed tighter and tighter, and his gentle, scholarly expression gradually stiffened.

His fingertips tightened involuntarily, crumpling the letter paper.

The letter detailed the encounter of Shrek Academy when they went to the Star Dou Great Forest.

After returning from the Star Dou Great Forest, Ning Rongrong heard that Yu Xiaogang had a way to save Xiao Wu, so she gave up on sending a letter back to the Sect.

She knew well that once the Sect learned of Xiao Wu's identity as a Spirit Beast, they would certainly not let her go easily.

This meant she had to leave Shrek, but after experiencing life and death together, she could not bear to leave.

It was only a few days ago, seeing that Yu Xiaogang had returned empty-handed and confirming that there was basically no possibility of saving Xiao Wu, that Ning Rongrong finally wrote this letter and secretly sent it back to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

"Fengzhi?" Chen Xin sensed something was wrong, stood up, and asked, "What exactly happened? Why is your expression so grave?"

Ning Fengzhi sighed long and hard, handing the letter to the two of them, "See for yourselves."

Gu Rong took the letter and read it side-by-side with Chen Xin...

A moment later, both of them looked up and met each other's eyes, shock filling their expressions.

Chen Xin frowned slightly, "Fengzhi, what do you think of this matter?"

Ning Fengzhi pondered to himself, Tang San, surnamed Tang...

"Uncle Sword, Uncle Bone." Ning Fengzhi's gaze swept across the two, "Do you still remember that incident from twelve years ago that shook the continent?"

"Twelve years ago..." Chen Xin pondered for a moment, "Are you talking about the incident involving Tang Hao?"

"Correct." Ning Fengzhi nodded slightly, "Based on the timeline, it is highly likely that Tang San is the son of Tang Hao. And as described in the letter, the hammer-shaped Spirit he displayed should be the Clear Sky Hammer."

Gu Rong said in shock: "twin spirits?! The Clear Sky Hammer!"

Ning Fengzhi replied: "That's right."

Chen Xin said: "Fengzhi, then what do you intend to do? If a twin spirits user grows up smoothly, the consequences will be immeasurable."

Ning Fengzhi sighed and said in a deep voice: "Spirit Hall is already powerful, and now that they have obtained a 100,000-year morphed Spirit Beast, their strength will surely rise to the next level. And among the younger generation, that Ji Xuan's strength crushes his peers; no one can match him."

"For the past two years, we have been running around, intending to unite various forces to resist Spirit Hall, but because of Spirit Hall's immense strength, we have repeatedly hit a wall. For the continuation of the Sect, I had already planned to look for another way out."

Ning Fengzhi paused, a glimmer of light appearing in his eyes: "But the appearance of Tang San has given me a glimmer of hope. He is not only a Genius with twin spirits, but he also possesses the world's number one Tool Spirit, the Clear Sky Hammer. As long as he can grow up smoothly, Ji Xuan will definitely not be his match. This... perhaps this is the turning point we have been waiting for for so long."

Ning Fengzhi's eyes grew brighter as he continued: "Moreover, Tang Hao already has a grudge against Spirit Hall, and now Tang San has formed a deadly feud with Spirit Hall because of that 100,000-year Spirit Beast. We share a common enemy. If we invest in Tang San at this time, not only can we win the friendship of a future powerhouse, but we can also use this to win over Clear Sky Douluo to resist our strong enemy together."

Chen Xin frowned slightly and said in a deep voice: "But although Tang Hao was expelled from the Clear Sky Sect, they are still of the Clear Sky Sect's Bloodline after all. If one day Tang San returns to the Sect, and the Clear Sky Sect uses this to restore its prestige, it is hard to guarantee they won't become another Spirit Hall. Don't forget that two years ago, the Clear Sky Sect explicitly rejected us; the idea of the Upper Three Sects acting as one has always been a joke. At that time, wouldn't we be raising a tiger that will cause trouble, and doing the work for the Clear Sky Sect?"

Gu Rong added: "That's right, Fengzhi. This matter concerns the future of the Sect; you must consider it carefully."

"I understand the concerns of both uncles." Ning Fengzhi smiled calmly, "Why don't we go to Shrek Academy ourselves to investigate? If Tang San has upright character and values relationships, then we will invest in him. It just so happens that we can also go see that girl Rongrong, how about it?"

Gu Rong and Chen Xin looked at each other and nodded slightly.

Ning Fengzhi said: "In that case, tomorrow morning, Uncle Sword and I will go together."

"Good." Chen Xin nodded.

The next day, Shrek Academy.

A streak of white light cut through the sky and descended at the academy gate.

The light dissipated, revealing the figures of Ning Fengzhi and Chen Xin.

Chen Xin scanned his surroundings and raised an eyebrow slightly: "Fengzhi, isn't this Shrek Academy a bit too dilapidated? Are you really comfortable with Rongrong studying in such a place?"

Ning Fengzhi chuckled, "Uncle Sword, Rongrong has been spoiled. A harsh environment is best for tempering a person's Heart-Nature. I allowed her to stay here because I wanted to temper her temperament. Moreover, although Shrek's environment is a bit poor, its teaching staff is considered first-rate in the entire Empire. Dean Flender and the several teachers are all rare powerhouses."

Chen Xin said no more, closed his eyes and focused his mind, and his powerful perception instantly covered the entire academy.

A moment later, he opened his eyes, a trace of doubt flashing through them: "Strange, there is no sign of Rongrong's aura in the academy, and the other students are nowhere to be seen."

Ning Fengzhi thought thoughtfully, "It seems we came at an inconvenient time; perhaps they are training outside."

"Shall we wait for them to return?" Chen Xin asked.

"No." Ning Fengzhi shook his head gently, "Since we are here, we might as well go see for ourselves."

The Seven Kill Sword appeared, and the two turned into streaks of light and flew into the sky.

Sword Douluo's powerful perception expanded and quickly locked onto the location of the Shrek group.

Each of them was carrying a heavy basket of stones, running around Soto City.

Flender was following in secret, both supervising and protecting them.

In the air.

Chen Xin's gaze focused, and he said with heartache: "Fengzhi, is this Shrek's training just carrying stones? Look at how sweaty Rongrong is; when has she ever suffered like this?"

Ning Fengzhi looked in the direction of his gaze.

He saw Ning Rongrong's figure lagging behind, her little face flushed red, every step she took was extremely strenuous, yet she was still gritting her teeth and persisting.

Looking at his daughter in this state, a trace of heartache flashed in Ning Fengzhi's eyes, but more of it was relief: "Uncle Sword, isn't this good? Rongrong is changing."

Ning Fengzhi's gaze then turned to the figure in blue at the very front of the team: "That should be Tang San, right? The weight he is carrying is far greater than the others."

Chen Xin's gaze lingered on Tang San for a moment, and he nodded slightly: "This child is indeed far superior to his peers."

The two then observed for a long time, and their first impression of Tang San was quite satisfactory.
