"No," Su Cheng said as he walked forward without stopping.

"..." Ning Rongrong, who was following behind him, glanced up but did not continue to dwell on the topic.

He then asked, "Are you really not going to another college because of me?"

Su Cheng sighed, somewhat helplessly, "Didn't I tell you before that I wanted to go to the Five Element Academy for my own reasons? If it were because of you, why would I go to the Five Element Academy? Didn't you hear what the sect leader said? They don't accept outsiders there at all."

"Didn't you want to participate in the Spirit Master Competition?"

"Who said you can't participate in the Spirit Master Competition if you go to the Five Element Academy? As long as you can get into the academy, the teams don't just look at your strength. Anyway, this has nothing to do with you, so don't worry about it."

"Then why did you leave me to stay at the Heaven Dou Academy?"

Su Cheng stopped and turned to look at Ning Rongrong.

"To be honest, the cultivation environment here is the most suitable for you. It's also close to the sect, making it convenient for them to take care of you. Unlike the sect leader, who has Titled Douluo protecting him, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's wealth is bound to be coveted by others. How much experience do you have to help you avoid these dangers?"

After saying that, he shook his head again.

"You might not understand even if I tell you this now. The environment within the sect is too comfortable, and there are many things you can't see. It's hard to guarantee that an incident like yesterday won't happen again. But if something like that happens, it will be too late to regret it. In short, before you throw a tantrum and want to run away from home again, you should think it over more."

Currently, the continent is suppressed by the Spirit Hall and has the Slaughter City. The number of Evil Spirit Master who have wandered outside is not large, but they are by no means nonexistent.

Ning Rongrong herself is a support-type Soul Master, so the possibility of her encountering danger is not small.

Even he himself was extremely cautious, hiring Dugu Bo as his bodyguard.

The title of the heir of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is far more prestigious than his, and the wealth he represents is astonishing. It's hard to guarantee that no one will take the risk.

If Ning Rongrong were to reveal the existence of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul in the future, she would undoubtedly become a thorn in the side of countless people.

"By the way, you're going to add your Third Soul Ring, right? Remember to go see your academy teacher and advance to Soul Elder as soon as possible."

As he said this, Su Cheng secretly felt it was a pity.

His External Soul Bone cannot be exposed yet, otherwise he could take this opportunity to observe the principle behind how the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda absorbs Soul Ring and transforms them into fixed Soul Skill.

He now possesses an extremely rich knowledge of Martial Soul, and if he could see the rules governing their operation, it might provide him with considerable inspiration.

Su Cheng had thought about this problem before, but couldn't find a good way to hide it.

If we only rely on the combat technique of "Insight," we can do it with just our eyes.

However, if one wants to enter that deeper level of vision, one must use the True Sight Eye between the eyebrows. The fluctuations in its aura and its outward manifestations cannot be hidden from Ning Rongrong and the others.

As for the advancement and use of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul, there is no longer much need for Su Cheng to refer to it.

That special vision that can see through Martial Soul and Soul Ring is far more useful than observing an unconventional support-type Martial Soul.

Three months passed quickly.

Su Cheng stood beside a strange hot spring, with steam rising around him and slowly dissipating only at the mountain pass hundreds of meters high.

The milky white and vermilion hot spring waters are clearly divided into two halves, each occupying one side.

It is the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well located in the Sunset Forest.

Su Cheng glanced at the hot spring beside him.

He knew in his heart that ten thousand feet below this spring lay the remains of the two great Dragon God, the Water Dragon King and the Fire Dragon King.

It's just unknown whether beings of that level still have any Soul Bone left behind.

However, even if it truly contains the Soul Bone of a real dragon, it is beyond his current reach.

Not to mention that the two Dragon God are of ridiculously high rank, their energy must be extremely strong.

Even if Soul Bone are easy to absorb, there is still a limit.

Moreover, with his current strength, he simply cannot reach such a deep place, which is thousands of feet below.

Not to mention him, even God-level expert who has just reached level 100 is questionable whether he can actually reach that position.

Moreover, the remains of such a supreme expert, after tens of thousands of years, could create such a blessed land on earth. The residual pressure they exert must be extremely astonishing, and ordinary people probably couldn't withstand it at all.

Therefore, after glancing at him once, Su Cheng stopped looking closely and didn't think much of it, turning his gaze back to Dugu Bo in front of him.

This was the last time Dugu Bo would receive treatment.

Once this is completed, the poison in his body will be completely neutralized.

Su Cheng acted quickly; he had repeated the same operation many times over the past three months.

The snake venom in Dugu Bo's body had long been integrated into his blood and bone marrow, especially the venom in his Soul Power, which was even more deeply ingrained than in the Simulation.

He needs to guide it multiple times to completely eradicate it without damaging the opponent's Soul Power foundation and toxic properties.

"I heard you had a falling out with your team's new coach?"

While feeling the extremely comfortable changes in his body, Dugu Bo, who was shirtless, casually remarked.

"Not really," Su Cheng said calmly.

A month ago, the spots for the Royal Fight Team One were finally officially confirmed.

There are a total of seven official members plus five substitutes.

In addition, the college assigned them a mentor, Qin Ming.

He is very strong and has extremely high talent. At the age of less than thirty-two, he has already cultivated to the peak of the Soul King realm and is not far from the Soul Emperor realm. He will break through within two years.

It can be said that he has exceptional talent and has a very high probability of becoming Titled Douluo in the future.

"Still saying you don't?" Dugu Bo's tone sounded somewhat gloating after hearing Su Cheng's answer.

"I heard it from Yan Yan. Because you often don't train with the team, Qin Ming is very dissatisfied with you."

Speaking of this, Su Cheng also felt somewhat helpless.

He didn't have any objections to Qin Ming.

Although this teacher will eventually leave the Heaven Dou Royal Academy and return to the Shrek Academy, that has little to do with him.

At this stage, this teacher is still very responsible.

But Su Cheng really didn't want to waste time with the team, as those training programs were of little help to him.

Moreover, even if he doesn't participate in training, it won't have a significant impact on the team.

He is a Power Attack System Soul Master, not a control-type Soul Master, and is not exactly the core of the team's combat system. He just needs to wait a few days to get used to it.

But Qin Ming clearly didn't think that way, which led to a rather cold relationship between them.

While drawing out the blood from Dugu Bo's body to be filtered and neutralized by the medicine, Su Cheng said, "Actually, it doesn't matter whether he's satisfied or not, since he won't be able to control me anymore soon anyway."

"What do you want to do?" Dugu Bo gave him a strange look.

"What kind of look is that?" Su Cheng was speechless. "To tell you the truth, I'm planning to go to the Royal Fight Team Two."

"What?" Dugu Bo was taken aback. "You didn't know that the Royal Fight Team One could be guaranteed a spot in the finals?"

"It's because the Royal Fight Team One was guaranteed a spot in the finals that I'm going to the second team," Su Cheng said casually.

"Are you out of your mind? I remember you said before that you wanted to join the Spirit Hall as a champion?"

"The second team isn't incapable of winning the championship either," Su Cheng said calmly. "The final spot isn't important. With me leading the team, we'll definitely make it to the finals. I need to play against the Five Element Academy; if we're guaranteed a spot, we won't have that chance."

"Fight against the Five Element Academy? Why? What's so special about them?"

Even if I told you, you wouldn't understand.

"I've noticed you're getting more and more arrogant," Dugu Bo sneered.

After a moment's thought, he suddenly said, "How about I let Yan Yan go to the second team with you? I think you're more reliable than Qin Ming and can guide her."

Su Cheng was both amused and exasperated upon hearing this. "Stop thinking about your nonsense. Have you forgotten what happened that day?"

"Uh." Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo immediately remembered the woman from the Spirit Hall he had met that day.

"So, you still plan to let your granddaughter live with me?"

Su Cheng gave him a half-smile.

"I do want to." To his surprise, Dugu Bo actually nodded. "I don't mean anything by it, so don't flatter yourself. Anyway, you said you're guaranteed to make it to the finals. If you get eliminated, I'll settle the score with you."

"Sigh, forget it." Su Cheng shook his head.

"You need to consider what other people think. You may not care, but with all this commotion, I've become a target. Dugu Yan is the vice-captain of the first team, after all. If she follows me to the second team, what will the academy think? What will the other team members think? And what will Yu Tianheng and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan behind him think? I don't want to offend the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan for no reason because of you."

"Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan..." Dugu Bo frowned upon hearing this.

Regardless of what Yu Tianheng's true thoughts are, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan definitely has some ulterior motives. If they can use Yu Tianheng's relationship to bind this Titled Douluo, they will be guaranteed to make a profit no matter what.

He didn't want Su Cheng to get into trouble because of this.

In fact, Su Cheng himself didn't care much about offending the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.

This family has a prestigious reputation, but its actual strength is not particularly great, and by this generation, there is a clear lack of capable successors. In fact, in terms of true strength, they may not even be able to compare with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

But whether you care or not is one thing, whether it's necessary or not is another.

Dugu Yan is doing quite well in her team. She cultivates a snake-type Beast Martial Soul and has a grandfather who is a Titled Douluo- level expert. Su Cheng has no ability to guide her.

"Let's not talk about your granddaughter for now, I want to talk to you about something serious."

Su Cheng put away the Silver Needle and began to prepare the medicine.

He said, "I have a way to help you break through the bottleneck of the level 95 Peak Douluo in a short time. Do you have anything to say?"

Dugu Bo was initially surprised, but then he realized what was happening and his expression became somewhat excited. "Is it that kind of celestial herb?"

He knows his own situation.

The foundation of the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Martial Soul is not particularly strong. Breaking through to the Titled Douluo realm involved a certain element of luck. Martial Soul Evolution into the Jade Phosphorous Serpent Emperor can be said to have reached its limit, and there is almost no possibility of going any further.

This is one of the reasons why he has always been jokingly referred to as the weakest Titled Douluo.

His potential was almost completely exhausted, and if he wanted to make further progress, he could only research unorthodox methods such as poisons.

Although his area-of-effect attacks are powerful, that's due to the attributes of his Martial Soul, not because of his actual strength.

"That's right, it's Immortal Herb," Su Cheng said directly.

"You have an Immortal Herb here called Snow-Colored Swan Kiss, which can catalyze the effects of a potent poison, allowing it to exert its full power in a short time. However, even you cannot consume it directly; I need to process it first. With its help, your foundation will be greatly enhanced."

After hearing his explanation, Dugu Bo's expression gradually calmed down from his initial excitement.

She hesitated slightly before asking, "Can Yan Yan use the Snow-Colored Swan Kiss you mentioned?"

Su Cheng glanced at him in surprise, not expecting that the other party would actually give this opportunity to Dugu Yan.

But he still shook his head and said, "I don't recommend that you use this Immortal Herb on her. The power of Snow-Colored Swan Kiss lies in stimulating the potential of the poison itself. I made some adjustments to it to slow down this catalytic effect as much as possible, so that it doesn't erupt too violently and cause danger. But if Dugu Yan wants to use it, not to mention that her current body can hardly withstand it, it would be a waste for her to use this thing with her current foundation."

"I see." Dugu Bo nodded thoughtfully.

At this moment, Su Cheng suddenly asked, "Senior, how about joining the Spirit Hall with me later?"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo's eyes widened, and he turned to look at Su Cheng.

"So you were just waiting for me here all along."

"I'm just making a suggestion, not trying to take advantage of your kindness. If you're not willing, I won't force you." Su Cheng chuckled. "I asked for two Immortal Herbs from you before, so it's only natural that I help you advance."

After a long silence, Dugu Bo clicked his tongue and said, "You know I already refused the Spirit Hall's invitation before, right?"

"Of course I know. To be honest, the reason you don't want to join the Spirit Hall is simply because you don't want to be restricted in your freedom. But the treatment of ordinary Titled Douluo and Peak Douluo in the Spirit Hall is completely different. Those few elders of the Spirit Hall have lived for so many years, how many times have you seen them take action? Not to mention that after using the Immortal Herb, your Martial Soul Bloodline will also undergo a transformation. At that time, you will no longer be the ordinary Poison Douluo you used to be."

"You really dare to say that. You, a mere Soul Elder, dare to say that I, a Titled Douluo, am nothing special?" Dugu Bo was amused by his last sentence, but a thoughtful look flashed in his eyes.

"I am just an ordinary Soul Elder." Su Cheng smiled and continued, "You are all alone, and if you want to train your granddaughter, you can only do it through unorthodox methods. It is difficult to systematically impart knowledge. In this regard, the Spirit Hall is not necessarily bad. It can always provide you with a place to belong. You should know that your reputation as the Poison Douluo is not very good."

He was obviously motivated by his own selfish motives when he said those words.

If Dugu Bo, whose strength has greatly increased, joins the Spirit Hall along with him, then he will no longer be someone without any foundation.

But these words were not meant to deceive Dugu Bo.

Within the Spirit Hall, Peak Douluo are indeed treated differently.

Even Chrysanthemum Douluo Yue Guan, despite his busy schedule, is considered Bibi Dong's most trusted confidant.

He usually doesn't get to do most of the dirty and tiring work; that's already taken care of by ordinary Titled Douluo.

For example, Qian Renxue's previous attempt to usurp the throne.

In addition to Snake Lance and Ci Xue, two direct descendants of the Qian Family, the original plan included two other Titled Douluo on standby, both of whom were ordinary Titled Douluo in the Spirit Hall.

Su Cheng didn't mince words with his thoughts; he spoke frankly about the pros and cons.

Dugu Bo wasn't stupid; he naturally knew how to weigh the gains and losses.

He was indeed somewhat tempted.

Most importantly, just as Su Cheng said, the Spirit Hall Academy is indeed more suitable for raising children.

The students at the Spirit Hall Academy today are mostly descendants of the Spirit Hall Soul Master.

Some of these were Soul Master who died fighting for the Spirit Hall, and their descendants have all received an excellent education.

The three Golden Generation of the Spirit Hall today are all in this situation.
