The Nine Treasures Glazed Sect's Terms

After spending several days in the village, Chen Yuan found nothing amiss.

He just couldn't believe that the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect could be so kind; it felt like they were just giving money away to the people of Small Lake Village.

Whether it's the paving stones on the ground, the land that has been half-transformed into medicinal herb fields, or even the seeds.

Chen Yuan checked for a long time and found no problems; in fact, everything used was the best available.

This is abnormal in itself.

After all, Small Lake Village is quite far from Nine Treasures City, and my current relationship with Ning Tian is just that of a normal acquaintance.

I really don't understand why the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect would spend so much money to improve the lives of the villagers in Small Lake Village.

Even if it's just to improve Chen Yuan's impression of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect, isn't this going a bit too far?

The money spent on Small Lake Village is probably far less than one-thousandth of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect's daily profit.

The Nine Treasures Glazed Sect did this casually, but for Chen Yuan, it was an extremely difficult favor to repay.

Just three days after returning to Small Lake Village, after Chen Yuan had helped his two children, who were now six years old, Awakening their martial souls, the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect finally sent people.

The newcomer was a very mature and beautiful woman, wearing a red cheongsam with her pink hair flowing down her back.

Accompanying the beautiful woman were two people Chen Yuan was relatively more familiar with: Ning Tian and Wu Feng.

"Senior Chen, I'm so sorry to bother you with this visit."

"It's nothing, it's my job to come and thank you for what you've done for Small Lake Village."

Wu Feng was unusually quiet this time. Ever since she learned during the Freshman Assessment that Chen Yuan and Ning Tian had met behind her back, Wu Feng had never given Chen Yuan a friendly look.

However, due to his limited strength, Wu Feng usually only dared to glare at Chen Yuan a few times.

Today, however, Wu Feng was unusually quiet, sitting obediently in her chair like a lady.

You wouldn't guess she's a humanoid Tyrannosaurus Rex at all.

Chen Yuan's gaze fell on the beautiful woman who was clearly in charge this time, and Ning Tian introduced the woman's identity at the opportune moment.

"Senior Chen, this is my aunt Ning Li. She's here to visit you and asked me to be her matchmaker."

"Auntie, this is Chen Yuan, Senior Chen. He'll be a fifth-year student at Shrek Outer Court after the holidays."

Hello, Aunt Ning!

Her face, which had been Ning Li with joy, now appeared strained and forced a smile because of that address.

"Chen Yuan, I'll call you that from now on."

"Please make yourself at home. I wonder what brings you here, Aunt Ning? I don't think the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect would look for a medicinal herb field in some remote mountain valley."

"I believe you understand that this is merely a small gift from our Nine Treasures Glazed Sect to you. We've come to discuss a deal with you."

"A transaction? I don't know what kind of transaction it is?"

"It's very simple. I believe you also know about the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Tournament a few months from now. According to the rules of previous years, Shrek will select this year's Reserve Team and the next year's Main Team at this time."

"I would like to ask you to bring Ning Tian and Wu Feng with you into the Reserve Team."

Ning Li wasn't surprised at all to know this news.

It should be said that anyone with even a little influence in their family, or anyone willing to inquire, knows about this Shrek tradition.

Chen Yuan pondered upon hearing this.

The Reserve Team consists of Chen Yuan, Bei Bei, and Xu Sanshi, and the other players will naturally be added based on these three.

Currently, they already have two Power Attack System and one Defense System. In terms of offensive capabilities, Chen Yuan is already Soul King, Bei Bei is also Soul Ancestor, so they have no shortage of direct attack power.

With Xu Sanshi as a defender, his Fourth Soul Skill, Mystic Underworld Displacement, is practically a divine skill, enabling him to provide timely support.

There's no need to consider Bei Bei; Tang Ya isn't even Core Disciple, she doesn't even have the chance to participate in the Reserve Team Selection.

Xu Sanshi would definitely want Jiang Nannan to join, and Jiang Nannan's cultivation level is indeed one of the more suitable candidates for the Outer Court.

Then there's Chen Yuan himself. He definitely wants to bring Xiao Xiao along, for a simple reason: her Martial Soul Fusion Skill and her Twin Martial Souls Talent.

With the addition of a fixed spot for the Soul Tool Department, it's highly likely that everyone will be vying for that last spot.

There might not even be a single spot available.

Huo Yuhao will reveal his Second Martial Soul, Ultimate Ice, after the holiday. With this talent, it seems that the last spot has already been reserved.

Unless He Caitou and Huo Yuhao takes up the spot for the Soul Tool Department disciple, then a spot will be available.

"First, let me ask you, Aunt Ning thinks that the two of them alone aren't enough to make it into the Reserve Team, right?"

"That's right. The Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda has no combat power, and Wu Feng's cultivation level isn't high. In this year's Shrek Outer Court, there are quite a few students with talent surpassing the two of them."

Being told to his face that he lacked talent, Wu Feng wished he could disappear into a crack in the ground.

Ning Tian didn't care. Barring any unforeseen circumstances, her potential was already limited. What difference did it make whether she had good or bad talent?

The upper limit is Seven-Ring Soul Sage. Anyone with Innate Soul Power of level six or above can reach it; it's just a matter of how fast or slow.

"If you allow Ning Tian and the others to join the Reserve Team, my Nine Treasures Glazed Sect can give you two million Gold Soul Coin."

"If you can lead Ning Tian to victory in the next competition held in the Sun Moon Empire, our sect will present you with a generous gift, the total value of which will be no less than a Fifty-Thousand-Year Soul Bone."

Weighing the pros and cons, what the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect wants is nothing more than fame, to build momentum for their next sect leader, and to build momentum for the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect.

In the hands of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect, a championship title can be manipulated in countless ways, bringing considerable benefits to the sect.

Glancing at Ning Tian and Wu Feng, whether in the original story or now, what their generation of Shrek Seven Devils lacks most is support.

He Caitou is indeed a Food System Soul Master, but he's not a proper support at all; he's essentially a ranged Power Attack System.

He Caitou wasn't sure if he would be Chen Yuan's teammate. Xiao Xiao was also Power Attack System now, so there was absolutely no way he would bring in another Power Attack System.

"Wu Feng won't do. My friend and I are already two Power Attack System, and there's a fixed spot for the Soul Tool Department."

"Our team doesn't need any more Power Attack System Soul Master."

Apart from Wu Feng, none of the people present showed any surprise.

The Nine Treasures Glazed Sect had already calculated that, apart from the quota held by the Soul Tool Department, the Martial Soul Department would have a total of nine quotas.

With the three senior students from this year's Outer Court confirmed, among the remaining students, Fourth Grade Jiang Nannan, first-year student Dai Huabin, and Zhu Lu have the best chances.

Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu must be paired together.

Therefore, Ning Tian still has a considerable chance of being selected, while Wu Feng, unless either Bei Bei or Chen Yuan, both Power Attack System, encounters an unexpected situation.

No, even if something unexpected happens, it won't be her turn; Dai Huabin's chances are much higher.

"Okay, the reward remains two million Gold Soul Coin; this five hundred thousand is a deposit."

Even if Ning Tian is unable to enter, the deposit does not need to be refunded.

"Alright, I'm done with my business. Xiaotian and Xiaofeng must have something to say to you. I'm going to go wander around somewhere else now."

As soon as Ning Li left the room, Wu Feng had just been pretending to be a good girl, was immediately triggered.

"Chen Yuan! What do you mean?! Am I that bad?! That you dislike me so much?!"

"No, it's just that we don't need more Power Attack System Soul Master."

"I'm sure you know Bei Bei, right?"

How could Wu Feng not know Bei Bei? Her Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Martial Soul was of a higher quality than her Red Dragon Martial Soul, and Bei Bei's talent was also superior to hers.

"We're enough for Power Attack System Soul Master with just me and Bei Bei. Besides, you don't actually think Xu Sanshi's attack power is weak, do you?"

If Xu Sanshi's attack power wasn't strong, he wouldn't have been able to win more than he lost in his fight with Bei Bei.

The explosive barrel Wu Feng silent; she couldn't think of anything she could do that could compare to those two.

Ning Tian sighed silently. There was nothing she could do; this generation had no shortage of offensive power, only a lack of support.
