"Xuan Zi, you may attempt to intervene, but I fear the consequences are more than you can bear!"
At this very moment, Wu Feng's grandmother, the Red Dragon Douluo, stared fixedly at Xuan Zi.
Even though her soul power was only at level 96, she showed no fear in the face of Xuan Zi.
Simultaneously, the two Title Douluo stationed within Shrek City also revealed themselves.
Although the number of Title Douluo present from the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect was far inferior to Shrek Academy, and their overall strength was weaker, they stood tall and undaunted, their momentum surging like a rainbow.
With the Mountain-Prop Douluo acting as a deterrent at the forefront, Shrek Academy truly dared not act rashly.
The reputation of a "hidden sect" was, in truth, far too unfathomable.
Had it not been for today's battle, no one would have guessed that the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect still harbored a level 98 Title Douluo.
"There is no need for you to act!"
Just as the atmosphere grew heavy, Mu En's voice resonated leisurely.
Since he had already been exposed, he might as well use his remaining prestige to intimidate everyone and buy Shrek Academy a chance to catch its breath.
Following this, the Mountain-Prop Douluo Shi Jian, bolstered by the support of two others, began to clash with the Dragon God Douluo Mu En.
Ning Que had already arrived in Shrek City, closely followed by a tall, white-haired old man.
The Nine Treasures Glazed Sect had been hidden for many years; while its foundation could not compare to an existence like the Clear Sky Sect, it was certainly not far behind.
It must be known that among the current Title Douluo, Elder Jin and Dai Chengfeng had been recruited through the efforts of Ning Que and Ye Guyi.
In other words, aside from those individuals, the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect had only revealed three Title Douluo so far: the Mountain-Prop Douluo Shi Jian, the Thunder Eagle Douluo Lei Yun, and the Red Dragon Douluo Wu Tianxin.
For a sect like the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect, which lacked neither wealth nor resources and excelled at binding people through familial ties, its true foundation could never be so simple.
The old man beside him was named Yang Pojun!
The martial soul he possessed was none other than the Soul-Breaking Spear of the former Breaking Clan.
When the Sea God Tang San ascended to the God Realm, the patriarchs of the Four Single-Attribute Clans became the four hall masters of the Tang Sect. While they appeared infinitely glorious, they remained subordinate forces, treated by others as nothing more than dogs.
Especially as the Tang Sect continued to develop, it mindlessly poured the majority of its resources into the sect master who possessed the Blue Silver Grass martial soul, leading to great injustice for the Four Single-Attribute Clans.
Coupled with the fact that the Clear Sky Sect had gone into hiding, the younger generation of the Four Single-Attribute Clans had never witnessed the majesty of the Clear Sky Sect, and a sense of unfairness gradually took root in their hearts.
They slowly became alienated and disillusioned.
Among them, the Breaking Clan and the Defense Clan were the most affected.
Finally, one day, after deep-seated grievances had accumulated, the Four Single-Attribute Clans, led by the Breaking Clan, were the first to break away from the Tang Sect.
As an opportunist, how could the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect miss such an opportunity?
They continuously tried to win over the Breaking Clan and the Defense Clan, but the others refused to be recruited; they no longer wished to be anyone's dog.
When the Sun Moon Continent collided and one great battle after another erupted, the Breaking Clan and the Defense Clan bore the brunt of the destructive blows.
Upon learning the news, the sect master of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect at that time rushed to provide aid.
Not only did he spend heavily to help them rebuild the Breaking Clan, but he also exhausted vast amounts of manpower and resources to help them find their scattered clansmen.
Finally, under these circumstances, the Breaking Clan and the Defense Clan chose to join the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect.
Only after joining did they realize it was completely different from their time in the Clear Sky Sect or the Tang Sect.
The Nine Treasures Glazed Sect truly valued talent and gave far too much.
After years of development, both clans had largely integrated into the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect.
Yang Pojun was the most gifted individual the Breaking Clan had ever produced, with his strength reaching level 97.
With him focusing on offense and Shi Jian on defense, they were the two pillars of the sect.
Regrettably, he was decades older than the Mountain-Prop ancestor, and due to the nature of his martial soul, even with the help of the Gold of Life to replenish his vitality, he had been unable to take the final step to reach level 98.
However, the Soul-Breaking Spear followed an extreme path, focusing on slaughter.
Yang Pojun was confident that even when facing a level 98 Title Douluo, he could trade his life for the opponent's if he fought with everything he had.
"Little Que, with such a massive commotion, this might be difficult to wrap up later!"
Yang Pojun stopped in his tracks and looked at the battle in the sky.
He had to admit that after reaching level 95, the gap between each level of a Title Douluo was like a chasm.
With his current strength, combined with the support of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, he could indeed go head-to-head with Xuan Zi, or even fight to the death.
But when facing the level 99 Mu En, he had no confidence in his ability to act.
"No matter, this is merely a catalyst!"
"The post-war compensation is what truly matters!"
Ning Que smiled indifferently, for he knew the true state of Mu En.
If Mu En were an uninjured level 99 Limit Douluo, let alone Shi Jian breaking through to level 98, even if he had advanced further or become a level 9 soul engineer, he would not have let Shi Jian come to test the waters so easily.
After a Title Douluo reaches level 95, every level gained is a fundamental transformation.
A difference of one level is like a chasm.
Moreover, there is a gap even between those at the limit of their power.
The quality of a Martial Soul and the level of one's bloodline are likewise chasms that are difficult to cross.
Although Elder Shi's Martial Soul, the Eternal Black Rock Shield, is also a top-tier Martial Soul, it still falls short compared to the Radiant Sacred Dragon.
Unless he can take another step forward and cause his Martial Soul to evolve once more.
"Elder Yang, what do you think of my previous proposal?"
"You are only a little over a hundred years old; it is the prime age to venture out. Dedicate yourself and upgrade the Martial Souls of your Breaking Clan."
Ning Que suddenly thought of something and looked toward Yang Pojun at his side with a smile.
"If you can truly pull this off, I suppose it is not impossible."
"Second-hand goods are still second-hand goods, aren't they?"
"As long as it can help the family's inherited Martial Soul evolve, I don't care about my reputation at this old age."
Yang Pojun pondered it seriously, and then, to his surprise, actually agreed.
This shocked Ning Que to the core.
"Elder Yang, you actually agreed? I'm starting to wonder if someone has taken over your brain."
Now it was Ning Que's turn to be stunned.
In the past, every time he mentioned this matter, Elder Yang would sternly refuse, and he had even lectured him more than once because of it.
Indeed, his proposal was far too outrageous.
The Soul-Breaking Spear of the Breaking Clan is certainly extraordinary, but in the end, it is still lacking.
And so, Ning Que had proposed that Elder Yang poach Yan Shaozhe's wife, Cai Mei'er.
With the Soul-Breaking Spear combined with the Evil-Breaking Dragon Soul Spear, perhaps a more powerful Martial Soul would emerge among their descendants.
To change the fate of the family and for the sake of their legacy, this was a small price to pay.
"Seeing Brother Shi able to trade blows back and forth with the Dragon God Douluo under the Sect Master's assistance, I truly feel a sense of unwillingness in my heart!"
Yang Pojun looked at the battle in the sky, his eyes filled with burning intensity.
