Renowned Throughout the Realm
"Spirit Hall will definitely interfere. Master Ratio's theories offer soul masters too great a boost. It would be far too optimistic to think they would do nothing and simply let this continue."
In a room at a luxurious Hotel in Spirit City, Ning Fengzhi spoke to Sword Douluo.
There were several others in the room as well, including high-ranking members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and representatives from other sects and factions.
Other sects and factions had naturally planted people in Spirit City.
At the very least, the Upper Three Sects had all gathered here to hear Ning Fengzhi's arrangements.
A tall man in a hood sat on the sofa, his face obscured as he leaned back casually.
Even before Ning Fengzhi, he showed no trace of reverence.
"Fengzhi, you made such a huge commotion just for one person? What was his name, Ratio? It's only a theory. Is it really necessary?"
The man asked dismissively.
Another representative from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan also looked at Ning Fengzhi in confusion.
"I heard its use is quite limited. It merely predicts in advance whether one can awaken a martial soul, their Innate Soul Power, and so on... He cannot change any of that. Is there really any need to care?"
Those words voiced everyone else's thoughts.
To a greater or lesser extent, they all thought Ning Fengzhi was making too much of it.
This was perfectly normal. The more one held an advantage in traditional soul master practices, the less readily one would accept new things.
Just as traditional soul masters ten thousand years later found it difficult to accept the existence of Soul Tools.
They were unwilling to make changes lightly.
Ning Fengzhi smiled faintly and shook his head. "Brother Tang, of course it is not that simple. Now that we know this formula, could we derive certain variables from it? Could we determine how to produce descendants with specific martial souls as much as possible?"
"!!!"
The hooded man, Tang Xiao, immediately stood up. His hood fell from his head as he stared at Ning Fengzhi in shock.
"You...! How, how could that be possible?"
Tang Xiao could no longer remain calm.
Once they could artificially intervene in the inheritance of martial souls, it would be an enormous boost to the Upper Three Sects!
They might even profit far more from it than Spirit Hall!
"If that is true, it would be a tremendous blessing!" the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan representative said excitedly.
Ning Fengzhi chuckled softly. Satisfied by their reactions, he continued, "Unfortunately, Master Ratio only asked us to derive it ourselves and has no intention of telling us."
"It must be because Spirit Hall is unwilling! Those damned bastards!" Tang Xiao said furiously.
The others also wore displeased expressions.
Ning Fengzhi shook his head. "None of that is important. We must respect Master Ratio's wishes. Besides, deriving things from a known formula will always be somewhat easier."
"Moreover, Master Ratio has also developed a Soul Tool!"
"It is said to be called a Soul Tool Handgun..."
When Ning Fengzhi mentioned the Soul Tool, the others immediately lost interest.
In the eyes of traditional soul masters, especially powerful ones, Soul Tools were nothing more than external objects!
Ning Fengzhi had no intention of correcting their way of thinking. He continued, "In three days, Master Ratio will unveil another new theory: the Three Elements Fusion Skill. When that time comes, Spirit Hall will definitely take action."
"We cannot sit around and wait for death either. Before Spirit Hall has fully prepared, we must catch them off guard!"
"I have already sent word to the major sects, explaining the stakes and hoping they will arrive swiftly. At the same time, I hope you will cooperate with me!"
Ning Fengzhi's expression turned solemn as he looked at everyone.
They all nodded. They recognized Ning Fengzhi's wisdom and were willing to follow his command!
One day later, many soul master factions received Ning Fengzhi's letters.
Master Ratio's name subsequently resounded throughout the Soul Master Realm.
Though it was currently only spreading among the outer soul master sects, before long, he would undoubtedly become the most sought-after figure in the Soul Master Realm!
Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan.
Yu Yuanzhen stood outside an Awakening Room, listening to the sound of Dragon's Roar coming from within.
Several minutes later, the door opened. A middle-aged man who bore some resemblance to him rushed out, his face flushed with excitement.
"Big Brother! It really was correct! Master Ratio's theories were right about almost everything!"
"Master Ratio is a true master! We must respond to Ning Fengzhi's call. We cannot let such a master remain beneath Spirit Hall. He should belong to the entire Soul Master Realm!"
"For Master Ratio, it is worth opposing Spirit Hall!"
Yu Luomian said excitedly.
Yu Yuanzhen's gaze briefly grew unfocused. The title of master...
"Fine. Since you have confirmed it, then do it!"
At the same time, many factions were verifying Ratio's theories, and their accuracy exceeded ninety-nine percent!
Master Ratio's name spread like radiation!
Heaven Dou City, the Crown Prince's residence.
Qian Renxue returned from the palace with a delighted expression.
"I knew Brother Ratio would definitely prove himself! He is the most brilliant genius. Those who looked down on him must be in for a huge surprise, right?"
Qian Renxue still wore a man's face, yet she could no longer restrain her girlish joy.
Fortunately, there were no outsiders in the room she was in, only two burly men in golden armor, like iron towers.
"Young Master, what happy news is this?"
Snake Lance Douluo asked doubtfully.
Qian Renxue smiled faintly. "Yes, Brother Ratio's theories..."
Qian Renxue recounted the entire process of Ratio's rise to fame, as though she had witnessed it herself, then emphasized at the end:
"I told you long ago that Brother Ratio was no ordinary person!"
"..."
Snake Lance Douluo and Pufferfish Douluo exchanged glances, a strange sense of familiarity rising in their hearts.
It seemed the Pope had once been just like this toward Yu Xiaogang...
Could it be that, as expected of mother and daughter, they shared the same Fate?
In their minds, Ratio was merely trash without even a martial soul.
Outwardly, they would not belittle Ratio, but inwardly, they did not think highly of him in the slightest!
Pufferfish Douluo asked, "Even the palace knows about this? Then what are we supposed to do? Can we return to Spirit City?"
"Yes! That is why I am so happy! I have not seen Brother Ratio in years..." Qian Renxue beamed. Whenever she thought of Ratio's face, she could not stop herself from grinning foolishly.
After all, she was Bibi Dong's daughter, and she had found her own "master."
Hearing that she could return this time, she was overjoyed. And since it was because of Ratio, it was joy upon joy.
It felt like an arrangement of Fate.
Snake Lance Douluo and Pufferfish Douluo both felt indescribably conflicted.
They both knew of Bibi Dong and Yu Xiaogang's tragedy. Seeing Qian Renxue like this now, they felt even more reluctant to hurt her and worried that something similar might happen in the future.
"After we return, we must make Ratio retreat in the face of difficulty. We absolutely cannot let the Young Master be hurt..."
