Now, the top geniuses of both the Star Luo and Heaven Dou Empires were gathered at Shrek Academy.
Once these individuals matured,
The Shrek Academy founded by Flender would beco a prestigious institution.
He could truly ascend to beco part of high society.
At this critical juncture of impending success, he absolutely couldn’t afford to offend these major powers.
Otherwise, all his efforts might co to nothing in an instant.
Seeing Flender’s cold attitude, Ma Hongjun imdiately fell silent.
Dai Mubai didn’t even voice any opposition.
Among these six great families were the Dai Family of the White Tiger Sect and the Zhu Family - he fully understood the stakes involved.
With Flender settling the matter decisively in just a few words,
Even if Yu Xiaogang was extrely unwilling, he could only wait until this matter passed before resuming Soul Duel training.
Ning Rongrong was greatly satisfied with Flender’s attitude.
Regardless of whether Flender agreed or not today, she was determined to go.
Requesting leave was rely a formality.
She nodded to the others and headed straight for Suotuo City.
It had been over two years since she last saw Dugu Feng.
Ning Rongrong could still clearly rember those several years spent with Dugu Feng at Heaven Dou Imperial Junior Academy.
From their very first eting, she and the Feng Ling and Feng Li brothers had been completely unconvinced by Dugu Feng.
After their Soul Duel, they trained with all their might just to catch up to him.
Only to be defeated again.
Later, Dugu Feng disappeared for three years, and when he reappeared, his strength completely surpassed theirs.
Unmatched among their peers.
At that point, Ning Rongrong abandoned any thought of competing with Dugu Feng.
Such talent was already a rare genius - becoming a Titled Douluo was practically inevitable.
Dugu Feng perfectly fit her criteria as a potential partner for the heir of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
With this thought, Ning Rongrong trained alongside Dugu Feng for over half a year.
That period was the most fulfilling ti of her cultivation life.
And it made her develop feelings for Dugu Feng.
She was nearly certain Dugu Feng would be her life partner.
But just then, Bone Douluo delivered devastating news - the Martial Soul Defect of the Dugu Family.
The mortality rate for partners of Dugu Family Soul Masters was nearly one hundred percent.
Ning Rongrong felt like the sky had collapsed, the cruelty of reality overwhelming.
After crying for a while, she regained her composure.
Then chose to follow Ning Fengzhi’s arrangents and ca to Shrek Academy.
At Shrek Academy,
She encountered geniuses like Dai Mubai, Tang San, and Zhu Zhuqing, but compared to Dugu Feng’s monstrous talent, they all fell short.
Even Tang San with his Twin Soul Spirits, in Ning Rongrong’s view, couldn’t match Dugu Feng in either cultivation speed or actual combat.
Later she learned from her family that during Dugu Feng’s three-year disappearance, he had gone to Slaughter City and obtained the Slaughter God Domain.
Once again, Ning Rongrong confird Dugu Feng’s monstrous nature.
This ti, she suddenly felt confident.
Even with his Martial Soul Defect, he could overco it.
In her heart, Dugu Feng was that kind of monster.
A being so extraordinary it could be called monstrous.
And she, Ning Rongrong, wasn’t willing to let such a monster slip away.
"If I’m to inherit the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School in the future, how can I stabilize my position as sect master without a powerful partner?"
Ning Rongrong was desperate to see Dugu Feng again.
Though she didn’t know what to say or do when they t.
But she knew clearly that since Dugu Feng had co to Suotuo City this ti, if she didn’t take the initiative...
With Dugu Feng’s solitary and aloof personality, he would definitely not co to see her on his own.
That heartless man only had eyes for cultivation.
Rongrong cursed him silently in her heart and quickened her pace toward the Great Soul Arena.
Soon, she arrived at the Great Soul Arena.
Given her status, she only needed to show her Martial Soul before being escorted directly to Dugu Feng’s room.
Taking a deep breath, determination flashing in her eyes, she was about to lightly knock on the door.
Before she could even raise her hand,
The door opened.
Dugu Feng stood at the doorway looking at her.
"Rongrong, long ti no see!"
The sudden opening of the door caught Rongrong off guard.
Regaining her composure, she said, "You ca to Suotuo City and didn’t even tell !
My father specifically asked you to visit .
Yet you didn’t co. I think you’ve been enjoying yourself so much in Heaven Dou City that you forgot about !"
Her tone was light and natural as she walked into the room, as casually as old classmates catching up.
Rongrong wore a sky-blue dress with a pale golden gilded belt at her waist, perfectly accentuating her figure—graceful and elegant.
Clearly, she had dressed up carefully.
Two years had passed. The thirteen-year-old Ning Rongrong had matured significantly, making Dugu Feng’s eyes brighten.
"How could I forget soone as beautiful as you, Rongrong?" Dugu Feng said.
"That flat tone of yours—does that sound like a complint to you?"
Rongrong huffed and walked straight to the window, leaving Dugu Feng with her back.
Though inwardly, she was delighted by his praise.
But Dugu Feng’s calm deanor also made her sowhat disheartened.
She had put in so much effort to dress up.
"Rongrong has grown up. You really caught my eye today!"
Dugu Feng walked over and gently stroked Rongrong’s smooth, long hair.
Rongrong’s heartbeat instantly quickened.
"Just caught your eye?" She turned her head, asking nervously.
Dugu Feng gazed at Rongrong’s delicate face.
Without hesitation, he wrapped an arm around her slender waist.
At this, Rongrong’s body stiffened slightly.
Overwheld by his imposing presence, she could no longer hold back. Like a young swallow returning to its nest, she suddenly threw herself into Dugu Feng’s embrace.
"Couldn’t you have taken the initiative? Did I really have to co find you myself?"
Rongrong’s eyes reddened slightly.
Dugu Feng chuckled lightly and patted her back. "My Martial Soul has flaws. Aren’t you afraid?"
"If I were afraid, I wouldn’t be here.
When Bone Grandfather told about the Dugu Family’s Martial Soul situation, I hesitated and worried.
But these two years apart have made realize—you’re the partner I’ve chosen!"
Rongrong smiled, a hint of pride in her voice.
Dugu Feng laughed. "You little devil. In the future, I’ll be the Dugu Family’s patriarch, and you’ll be the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School’s leader.
Between our two factions, who will take precedence?"
A sly glint flashed in Rongrong’s eyes. "Of course I’ll listen to you. But Sword Grandfather and Bone Grandfather—I can’t control them. As long as your strength surpasses theirs, they’ll listen to you too!"
She had already thought through these issues clearly.
There was no denying her cunning.
"You really are a cunning little witch, painting such a grand picture!"
Dugu Feng said calmly.
"Giggle..."
Ning Rongrong laughed smugly.
"As long as you’re strong enough, the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will be your dowry!" Rongrong declared matter-of-factly.
Dugu Feng widened his eyes.
He glanced around and said, "Are your Sword Grandfather and Bone Grandfather hiding nearby, ready to hit with a Soul Skill the mont I even think about accepting that dowry?"
