Douluo: So You're the One Called the Theoretical Master?

They were different from Yu Xiaogang.

Sometimes, overwhelming others with force worked quite well.

"Hehehehe~"

Ning Fengzhi wanted to curse at that damned sissy.

But he held it in and gestured for the Personal Guard nearby to inform Ning Qinghe of the situation here.

After all, he was the only one who could decide what to do about this.

As for Ning Fengzhi, he still needed to properly entertain everyone present.

However, many people's thoughts had already shifted, along with the conversation, to the possible Martial Soul battle that might take place shortly.

Anticipation immediately filled the air. Seeing some genuine combat strength was better than anything else.

Please vote, subscribe, and tip.

Inside a research room at the Extreme Research Institute.

Ning Qinghe had already changed into white robes, no longer looking as disheveled as before.

"Give me all the data."

He had finished the tests ahead of time and took the data from the researchers.

What met his eyes were all kinds of ratings.

His Soul Power absorption speed was directly comparable to that of a Soul Master with Innate Soul Power at level nine, or even full Innate Soul Power.

More than ten thousand years of Soul Power had perfectly reshaped him. His meridians were exceptionally tough, and his Soul Power flowed swiftly, without any of the usual "blocked" sensation when absorbing Soul Power.

In their previous research, such a condition would only appear in geniuses with exceptionally high Innate Soul Power.

He had now undergone a complete qualitative leap, transforming from trash into a genius.

His physical constitution had also been enhanced, already comparable to that of an ordinary Spirit Emperor. With his body alone, he could deal with Soul Elders and even Soul Ancestors.

At the very end came the most important evolution: his tool Martial Soul, the tower, had truly manifested.

When summoned, it shone with dazzling golden light. It was no longer the incomplete Martial Soul that had been nothing but a broken tower base.

The situation was much as he had guessed. It did not necessarily have to be the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

With a proper tower-type Martial Soul, he did not have to follow the support path. Defense and control were both entirely possible.

Whether it was defense or imprisoning someone inside the tower, Ning Qinghe had several ideas.

"From now on, I'll call you the 'Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda.'"

The data on the Martial Soul tower showed that its defensive power was incredibly strong and that it possessed a special force.

After organizing the data, Ning Qinghe gave his Martial Soul a name.

After all, he had evolved it himself.

Together with the second soul skill he had just obtained, Xuanhuang Power.

It possessed the ability to control earth-element power and even gravity. He would not disgrace this name.

He even felt that, through this ability, he had touched upon something special.

"And this thing!!!"

"Is this what they call a domain?"

Ning Qinghe closed his eyes and focused his mind.

He could sense that certain Soul Power around him was especially compatible with him. In particular, the vast amount of gleaming power coming from underground allowed him to absorb it "without end."

This should have been an extension of his first soul skill, only much stronger.

When he focused his mind, he also felt as though he had command over all the power of the earth. Within a small area of roughly five meters, he could control both the ground and rocks, as well as gravity.

This should have been an additional enhancement from his second soul skill.

By his reckoning, this was the so-called domain power formed by the growth of his abilities.

It was only the embryonic form of a domain for now, extremely weak, and he did not have sufficient strength to sustain it.

It was the sort of thing that was useless against ordinary opponents but could not be used against powerful ones.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect only had a handful of people with domains.

So the Research Institute had not studied them yet. He could only serve as the first "test subject."

After Ning Qinghe calmed himself down and considered whom to recruit next and what kind of cooperation to establish.

The researchers brought him news that someone was waiting outside to see him.

He did not delay. He quickly left the research room and saw someone.

A Personal Guard from his father's side.

"Young Master."

Only people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect called him Young Master.

Chen Xin was standing beside him as well.

"If you don't want to accept it, then refuse."

"With Old Bone and me here, even Chrysanthemum Douluo and Ghost Douluo won't be able to do anything."

"The same goes for that old dragon."

Chen Xin had already learned about the situation beforehand.

He spoke directly, giving Ning Qinghe more confidence.

"What happened to make Grandpa Sword so angry?"

Looking at the elder who cared for him, Ning Qinghe merely smiled.

After more than a decade of knowing each other, he truly regarded Chen Xin as an elder.

At his inquiry, Ning Fengzhi's Personal Guard quickly explained everything.

From Yu Xiaogang's conduct at the beginning, to Yu Yuanzhen's wager afterward, and Spirit Hall joining in the commotion.

As he spoke, the Personal Guard clearly carried some emotion. His anger was obvious.

Yet after hearing the situation, Ning Qinghe merely smiled.

"There's nothing to refuse. Since they're curious, let them find out."

"It would be worse to hide things."

"Since I want to find partners, I should give those partners some confidence."

If his strength had been insufficient, or if there had been hidden dangers or some unspeakable difficulty, he might have refused.

But under these circumstances, there was no need.

There was even less need to play the pig to eat the tiger.

His talent was gradually improving. Later, he planned to head to Dugu Bo's Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well to bring back Immortal Herbs for research and improve himself again.

If his current strength was exposed, then so be it.

He did not believe that his future self could be compared to who he was now.

The Personal Guard was deeply stirred by his words and looked at Ning Qinghe with admiration.

They followed Ning Fengzhi and were occasionally reassigned here, so they knew very well how their Young Master had struggled along the way.

In their eyes, he had turned the impossible into possible.

He had already become something of a legend.

"Then we'll do as you say."

Chen Xin did not stop him either.

This had always been his approach.

If the child wanted to show off, let him show off.

If there was anything he could not handle, it did not matter. Chen Xin would step in.

"Go back first."

"Tell Father to make preparations as well. I'll be there soon."

"Whether it's that Yu Xiaogang or the Martial Soul Hall Saintess, it makes no difference."

Whether they were Soul Grandmasters or Soul Ancestors, geniuses or trash, it did not matter.

Ning Qinghe had absolute confidence.

"Yes." Upon hearing this, the Personal Guard swiftly returned.

"I've seen that Martial Soul Hall Saintess. She's a Soul Ancestor, and she may even have some Spirit Hall..."
