"Wow~ What a beautiful big bird~"

Ning Rongrong widened her eyes at the Radiant Phoenix on Zhao Tian's body, suddenly feeling that the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda in her hand was no longer quite as appealing.

"Rongrong, this isn't a big bird. It's a Radiant Phoenix, an ultra-top-tier light-attribute martial soul."

Ning Fengzhi immediately corrected her.

"Oh, oh, Rongrong understands now~" Ning Rongrong nodded her little head.

"Zhao Tian, this old man's martial soul is also a beast martial soul, called the Bone Dragon. I am now a level ninety-five Title Douluo, and I intend to take you as my disciple. Are you willing?"

"If I teach you, I will definitely be the most suitable choice. I will impart everything I have learned in my life without reservation!"

Gu Rong stepped forward and took the initiative to extend an olive branch.

He intended to get ahead of the others and snatch this child away.

"Old Bones, you're truly shameless. Zhao Tian's Radiant Phoenix should learn offense from me—sharp enough and powerful enough!"

"Zhao Tian, I am a level ninety-six Super Douluo, far stronger than this old bones. My martial soul is the Seven Kill Sword, made for slaughter! The strongest killing force under heaven!"

"In terms of weapons, only the Clear Sky Hammer, number one in strength, can trade blows with me!"

Seeing this, Chen Xin was immediately displeased and stepped forward at once.

He also wanted to take Zhao Tian as his disciple.

The next second, a longsword left its sheath, radiating terrifying sword aura.

Nine soul rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black—rose from beneath his feet.

The aura of a level ninety-six Super Douluo spread out, suppressing the entire hall.

"Hmph! Old Swordsman, don't think I'm afraid of you!"

"My Bone Dragon is the number one defensive beast martial soul in the world!"

"Your Seven Kill Sword can't break through my defense!"

"And I'm not just someone who can defend and take hits. I have powerful offensive methods too!"

Gu Rong refused to be outdone and snorted coldly.

The next second, he summoned his own martial soul as well.

A black Western dragon, as though it had emerged from the netherworld, appeared behind him.

This was his martial soul, the Bone Dragon!

The same nine soul rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black, black—appeared.

The imposing auras of a level ninety-five Title Douluo and a level ninety-six Super Douluo collided directly within the main hall.

To fight over an Innate Full Soul Power owner of an ultra-top-tier Radiant Phoenix was absolutely worth it.

"This..."

Seeing this scene, Zhao Tian was stunned as well. No matter whom he chose, he would offend the other side today, which made him deeply troubled.

Having a Title Douluo as a backer was naturally a good thing, but if it meant offending another one, the loss would outweigh the gain.

Although he knew these two had a very good relationship, he did not dare gamble on human hearts.

The elderly steward was frightened too and did not know what to do. In the end, he turned his gaze toward Ning Fengzhi and sought help.

"Ah, Uncle Jian, Uncle Gu, calm down."

"Keep calm, keep calm."

"Won't this make the younger generation laugh at us?"

Ning Fengzhi felt a headache coming on and broke into a sweat. He immediately stepped between them to mediate.

Hearing this, Chen Xin and Gu Rong came to their senses and felt that Ning Fengzhi was right.

"Fengzhi, then what good solution do you think there is?" Gu Rong asked.

Chen Xin said nothing, clearly sharing Gu Rong's thoughts.

"In my view, we should simply designate Zhao Tian as one of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's future young sect masters and have him take all three of us as his teachers."

"I will mainly be responsible for teaching him everything related to administration and business. Uncle Jian will mainly teach him everything related to swords, while Uncle Gu will mainly teach him everything related to beast martial souls."

"What do you think?"

Ning Fengzhi thought for a moment before speaking.

This was a helpless compromise.

He did not wish to see the two protectors damage their relationship over taking a disciple.

"That works. Let's do that, then."

With a way out presented to them, Chen Xin and Gu Rong immediately took it and nodded in agreement.

"Zhao Tian, what do you think?"

"Take the three of us as your teachers, and we will surely teach you everything without holding back!"

"You will become one of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's designated future young sect masters!"

The three of them turned their eyes toward Zhao Tian.

All the pressure fell on Zhao Tian.

Zhao Tian put away his martial soul and landed. A light sweat had formed on his forehead; being watched like this, it would have been a lie to say he was not nervous.

"This disciple has no objections. This disciple, Zhao Tian, greets his three teachers."

Zhao Tian immediately bowed.

On this continent, becoming someone's disciple did not require kneeling and kowtowing.

A bow was all that was needed.

Once he had done so, the ceremony was considered complete, and the three of them nodded in great satisfaction.

"Very good. From today onward, you are the personal disciple of the three of us and a young sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"

"Good disciple, your Soul Power has already reached level ten. You can directly obtain your first soul ring. Your teacher will personally take you to hunt the most suitable one."

Chen Xin said.

"Yes, yes. Whichever one you like, we'll take that one."

Gu Rong nodded in agreement.

"Rongrong wants to go too!"

Ning Rongrong said.

"Rongrong, you haven't reached level ten yet, so you can't absorb your first soul ring. There's no point in going." Ning Fengzhi said.

"No, no, I want to go! I want to watch him absorb his first soul ring! With my two grandpas there, Rongrong won't be in danger!"

Ning Rongrong pouted and shook her little head like a rattle.

"It's fine. Let Rongrong come along. It'll be a good chance for Tian'er and Rongrong to get along properly."

Chen Xin spoke up. "With me there, nothing will happen."

"Old Bones, the sect can't be without a Title Douluo guarding it. You stay here. You went out last time, so this time it's my turn. Don't try to fight me for it, or my Seven Kill Sword won't show mercy."

Chen Xin looked toward Gu Rong.

Hearing this, Gu Rong could only sigh helplessly.

This rule truly could not be broken.

"Fine, you go, then."

Gu Rong finally sighed and gave in.

If both Title Douluo left, and a powerful enemy really attacked the sect, they would be in trouble.

"Tian'er, Rongrong, you must get along well." Ning Fengzhi said with a smile.

He had already decided to betroth Rongrong to Zhao Tian.

Such an outstanding youth was perfectly suited to become the son-in-law of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

One possessed powerful offense, while the other possessed the continent's number one support ability.

The two were the most suitable match, simply a couple made in heaven.

The entire sect could not find anyone more suitable than Zhao Tian.

Chen Xin and Gu Rong naturally understood Ning Fengzhi's little scheme, but they approved of it as well.

As long as the two married, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's overall strength would become even more terrifying in the future!

"Alright, enough talking. Get on."

"I'll let you experience the thrill of flying on a sword."

Chen Xin summoned the Seven Kill Sword. It floated in the air and enlarged, and he leaped onto it.

With a gentle raise of his hand and a point into the air, Zhao Tian and Rongrong flew up as well and landed steadily on the sword. Then the longsword tore through the air at tremendous speed and vanished from the sect.

"Who would have thought that Chen Tian's unintentional action back then would produce such a genius? He must be greatly rewarded, and Elder Liu, you must be greatly rewarded as well!"

"However, this matter must be kept strictly confidential. Do not let anyone else spread word of it. If those people from Spirit Hall learn of it, or people from other factions learn of it, they may not dare act openly, but they will very likely act in secret. That may not be a good thing for Zhao Tian, and it could even indirectly harm Rongrong."

Ning Fengzhi's gaze sharpened as he looked at the elderly steward. It was a warning of death.

"This old man understands. Rest assured, Sect Master, I will make the arrangements properly!"

Cold sweat covered the elderly steward's forehead as he answered fearfully.

"Mm, you may leave."

Only then did Ning Fengzhi nod in satisfaction.

The elderly steward quickly departed.

Only Gu Rong and Ning Fengzhi remained in the main hall.

"I think Tian'er's matter definitely can't be kept hidden. After all, there must be informants from other factions within the sect."

Gu Rong said in a low voice.

Ning Fengzhi nodded. "Naturally, I know. We can only reduce the threat as much as possible. Once Tian'er returns after obtaining his first soul ring, he will live with us in the rear courtyard area, and the danger will be reduced as well."
