88: Chapter 88 Hidden Weapon Deal

On the Shrek Academy playground.

Tang San suddenly stepped forward and said: "School Master Ning, this Junior wishes to discuss a business deal with you."

Ning Fengzhi was immediately interested.

The one million gold coin gift he had given the academy today was merely a preliminary investment in this group of Geniuses.

More importantly, he had intended to build a relationship with Tang San, this Genius with twin spirits, and now that the other party had taken the initiative, it played right into his hands.

"Please go ahead, little friend Tang San." Ning Fengzhi nodded with a smile, signaling him to continue.

Tang San did not say much, taking a delicately crafted crossbow from his Twenty Four Moonlit Bridges.

"This item is called the Godly Zhuge Crossbow." After Tang San loaded the mechanism, he continued, "It does not require Soul Power to activate, and can be used by ordinary people. Within fifty meters, it is sufficient to break through the defenses of any Spirit Master below level forty."

As soon as these words were spoken, the whole audience was shocked.

Even the usually calm Chen Xin revealed a look of surprise.

Tang San said calmly: "School Master Ning, why don't you try it yourself?"

"Very well." Ning Fengzhi took the Godly Zhuge Crossbow, and following Tang San's instructions, pulled the trigger at a wooden stake in the distance.

"Whoosh—"

The crossbow bolt tore through the air and instantly pierced through the wooden stake.

"Such penetrating power!" Chen Xin's gaze sharpened, "It is indeed capable of breaking through the defenses of anyone below the Spirit Ancestor level."

Ning Fengzhi stroked the cold crossbow mechanism in his hand, immediately realizing the value of this weapon.

Although the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was wealthy enough to rival a nation, its direct descendants were all support system Spirit Masters who often needed protection from battle Spirit Masters during combat.

If every direct descendant could be equipped with this, the Sect's overall strength would surely see a qualitative improvement.

"Tang San, are the blueprints for this weapon for sale?" Ning Fengzhi asked straightforwardly.

"My apologies, School Master Ning." Tang San shook his head, his tone firm, "The blueprints are confidential; I cannot sell them."

A flash of disappointment crossed Ning Fengzhi's eyes, but he quickly returned to his composed self: "In that case, I wonder what the price of this weapon is?"

"School Master Ning, please do not be impatient; I have other Hidden Weapons."

Immediately after, Tang San showcased other Hidden Weapons like the Silent Sleeve Dart, and explained one by one those that had not yet been crafted but could be sold.

"Good, good, good." Ning Fengzhi's eyes were full of excitement, "I want all the Hidden Weapons you just mentioned. How about I offer ten thousand gold coins per set?"

Tang San was shocked; this price far exceeded his expectations.

However, he quickly calmed his emotions and nodded: "Deal."

"However..." Tang San changed the subject, "For such a large batch of Hidden Weapons, it would be difficult for me alone to complete them in a short time. I hope School Master Ning can find people to craft the parts, and I will be responsible for the final assembly."

"Very well, it shall be as you say." Ning Fengzhi agreed readily, "I will order five hundred sets first. Here is a one million gold coin deposit."

As he spoke, he took out a crystal card and handed it to Tang San.

"Five hundred sets! That's five million!" Ma Hongjun opened his mouth wide, his shrill voice even changing pitch.

Flender, who was immersed in the thought of the one million gold coin card, nearly fainted when he heard five million.

This Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was truly filthy rich; they were just too wealthy.

Oscar looked at Tang San with envy and whispered: "Little San has really made a fortune this time."

Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing did not have much of a reaction to the gold coins, but they were somewhat interested in Tang San's Hidden Weapons.

"Many thanks, School Master Ning."

Holding the crystal card, Tang San was incredibly excited internally.

This was the very first pot of gold he needed to build his own power.

The Spirit Hall was powerful, and he knew well that it was difficult to contend with them on his own.

When he saw Ning Fengzhi's lavish spending and recalled what his teacher had mentioned about the situation of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, he realized that his Hidden Weapons held great appeal for the School Master.

This business deal not only allowed him to earn a large amount of gold coins but also established a friendship with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, one of the Upper Three Sects.

In the future, when crusading against the inherently evil Spirit Hall, having the support of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would surely make the task twice as easy with half the effort.

Tang San handed a stack of carefully drawn part blueprints to Ning Fengzhi.

Once everything was settled, Ning Fengzhi prepared to depart and return to the Sect.

Before leaving, he specifically called Ning Rongrong aside and walked to a distant, undisturbed corner.

"Rongrong, are you getting used to Shrek Academy?" Ning Fengzhi asked Ning Rongrong with concern.

Ning Rongrong nodded: "I have already gotten used to it."

"That is good." Ning Fengzhi's eyes flickered, "What do you think of that Tang San?"

Ning Rongrong was stunned for a moment, thought for a while, and said: "His talent is very good, and his strength is powerful. Moreover, his Hidden Weapons can help our Sect greatly improve our strength."

Ning Fengzhi nodded and suddenly lowered his voice: "Then how about letting him be your future husband, what do you think?"

Ning Rongrong was immediately shocked, "Ah? Dad, what are you saying! Doesn't Tang San like Xiao Wu? Although they address each other as brother and sister, we can all see it."

Ning Fengzhi did not care, "You also know that as a hundred-thousand-year Spirit Beast, if Xiao Wu falls into the hands of the Spirit Hall, she will not be able to return alive. You will always need to find a partner in the future, and Dad thinks that Tang San is quite good. He just lost Xiao Wu; if you show him more concern in the future, perhaps..."

"Oh! Dad, stop talking!" Ning Rongrong stomped her feet, "Hmph! Bad Dad! I'm ignoring you!"

After speaking, Ning Rongrong turned and ran towards the Shrek group in the distance.

Ning Fengzhi watched Ning Rongrong's departing figure and smiled slightly; he could see that Rongrong's impression of Tang San was not bad.

"Let's go, Uncle Sword." Ning Fengzhi withdrew his gaze and said to Chen Xin beside him.

Chen Xin nodded, the Seven Kill Sword appeared, and the two headed towards the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Ning Rongrong stopped in her tracks, looked up at the streaming light in the sky, and felt somewhat conflicted in her heart.

Ning Fengzhi's words were not without reason, and she was well aware of the Sect's rules: direct descendants of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School must marry powerful battle Spirit Masters.

She could also see Oscar's feelings for her, but a food system Spirit Master clearly did not meet the Sect's requirements.

By comparison, although Tang San's appearance was not the most outstanding, his talent and strength were both top-tier choices.

Thinking of this, Ning Rongrong could not help but cast her gaze upon Tang San, and a strange feeling arose in her heart.

Ning Rongrong shook her head, took a deep breath, and walked into the Shrek team.

"Little San, can you sell me a set of your Hidden Weapons for a cheaper price?" Oscar wrapped his arm around Tang San's shoulder, "You also know I don't have that much money."

Looking at Oscar's embarrassed appearance, Tang San could not help but smile.

"What are you talking about, buying or not buying." Tang San stuffed the Hidden Weapons he had just demonstrated into Oscar's hands, "These few are for you; between us brothers, there is no need to talk about money."

"Little San." Oscar was stunned, "This is too valuable!"

"Just accept it." Tang San patted his shoulder.

Ma Hongjun, who was beside them, saw this and also came over, his shrill voice filled with expectation: "Third Brother, what about me?"

Tang San shook his head helplessly, his gaze sweeping over everyone: "I don't have that many finished products on hand right now. Give me some time, and I guarantee one set for everyone."

Subsequently, Dai Mubai proposed to pay for the Materials. Under his lead, everyone insisted on covering the material costs for the Hidden Weapons.

Tang San could not refuse and finally had to agree to charge the cost price.
