The Ones in the Wrong Aren't Us, but Blue Tyrant Academy
This is a skill that Meng Chen learned in his early years.
Since Ning Fengzhi is now asking for his help, he doesn't need to rush to answer. He can use some subtle actions to delay the time, indirectly conveying his attitude while forcing the other party to offer a higher price.
I know you're in a hurry, but don't rush.
"Sect Master Ning, I have a solution, but now is not the time."
Meng Chen wasn't in a hurry, but Ning Fengzhi had no choice but to be.
In order to evolve the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, the ancestors of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect spent countless hours and efforts searching for a method, but all to no avail.
Therefore, Ning Fengzhi was very anxious, and he couldn't help but ask impatiently, "Then... when would be a suitable time? If you have any conditions, please feel free to mention them, and I will do my best to fulfill them."
"Whether it's medicinal herbs, Soul Bone, or other resources, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect may not claim to be the wealthiest in the world, but it certainly has some resources to its name."
"Sect Master Ning, you misunderstand," Meng Chen shook his head, his tone calm yet firm, "This isn't a matter of conditions. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda requires specific timing and conditions to evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda."
"The time is not right yet. Forcing things will only backfire. When the time is right, I will naturally tell you what to do."
Let's keep putting it off; I'm not in a hurry anyway.
Meng Chen leisurely sipped his tea.
Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi could only feel disappointed.
It seems I was too anxious.
Ning Fengzhi a deep breath, regaining his composure, and said, "Very well, I believe in young friend Meng's promise. Then I will await that day. Until then, if young friend Meng needs any assistance from me, please do not hesitate to ask."
"Thank you, Sect Master Ning."
Meng Chen smiled broadly.
Ning Rongrong didn't interrupt, because she was too shocked to speak.
What a joke! For thousands of years, countless outstanding individuals from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect have devoted their entire lives to trying to overcome the flaws of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul, but to no avail.
Now, hope is right in front of us, and it's even in the hands of Meng Chen, an outsider?
Ning Rongrong was both surprised and delighted.
She couldn't quite match her father's shrewdness, so she asked Meng Chen directly, "Meng Chen, do you really have a way to evolve the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda?"
Because of surprise and nervousness, Ning Rongrong unconsciously grabbed Meng Chen's arm while speaking, their posture appearing somewhat intimate.
Her beautiful eyes were full of hope and eagerness.
Meng Chen laughed and said, "Yes, I have a way. You're trying to trick me into telling you? I can't tell you right now."
Ning Rongrong, being a young girl at heart, couldn't help but pinch Meng Chen and say, "You're so annoying! Keeping me in suspense!"
The opportunity to change their fate was right in front of them, but that despicable person refused to reveal a single word no matter what.
Anyone would be incredibly curious about this, practically itching to scratch the person in front of them to death.
"Bang!"
It was the sound of bowls and chopsticks falling to the ground.
Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw that it was Zhu Zhuqing.
She felt a little embarrassed for a moment, and her eyes showed a hint of disappointment.
Ning Rongrong finally snapped out of her excitement. She knew that her best friend had always had feelings for Meng Chen.
My current posture is a bit too close to Meng Chen.
Isn't this making Zhu Zhuqing feel bad in front of everyone?
Ning Rongrong quickly stepped back, glancing apologetically at Zhu Zhuqing.
She didn't mean it; she was just too excited to hear that her Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda might break through its limitations.
Zhu Zhuqing surprisingly smiled, indicating to Ning Rongrong that she didn't take it to heart.
She really didn't take it to heart.
But why do I feel disappointed?
Zhu Zhuqing was confused.
On the other side, at the Blue Tyrant Academy.
When Liu Erlong witnessed how distorted Yu Xiaogang's values were, she left in a daze.
Yu Xiaogang also closed the door.
Tang San revealed himself only after Liu Erlong left.
His face, which had become delicate and refined after being reshaped by his bloodline, was filled with disdain.
Tang San originally had something to discuss with Yu Xiaogang, but unexpectedly, he happened to witness Liu Erlong and Yu Xiaogang arguing, and Tang San overheard their argument.
Indeed, when a woman is in charge, the house collapses.
You actually bothered your teacher over such a trivial matter?
Tang San was indignant and knocked on Yu Xiaogang's door.
Yu Xiaogang had initially thought that his attitude towards Liu Erlong had been a bit harsh. Even if her views were wrong, how could he lower himself to the level of a woman?
Should I wait for her to apologize and then forgive her? Or should I take the initiative to forgive her and tell her that I shouldn't have been so rude just because she was being immature?
Just as he was hesitating about whether to apologize to Liu Erlong, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Yu Xiaogang immediately smiled confidently.
It seems Erlong is all bark and no bite; he knows he was wrong and takes the initiative to ask for forgiveness.
But when he opened the door and saw Tang San standing there, he was somewhat disappointed.
"Xiao San? What do you want with me?"
"Teacher, let's go inside and talk."
Tang San slipped inside and gently locked the door from the inside.
"What's wrong? Why are you being so secretive, Xiao San?"
Seeing Tang San's actions, Yu Xiaogang asked in surprise.
"Teacher, I heard your argument with Liu Erlong just now."
Tang San said bluntly.
Yu Xiaogang's expression darkened.
He sighed and said, "Erlong... she did overreact to what happened with that female student. I tried to explain to her, but she wasn't really listening."
Yu Xiaogang looked utterly helpless.
Sigh, my teacher is just too soft-hearted.
Tang San said with dissatisfaction, "Teacher, don't you think this can't go on?"
"What's wrong?"
"Look, you've brought us all— Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, Oscar —aren't we all talented Soul Master!"
"But in this academy, we're treated like royalty, just like any other student, or even worse!"
"Dai Mubai is just curious about a few female students with poor talent and wants to mentor them, right? It's really not right for Liu Erlong to cause you trouble over such a trivial matter."
"Those who dare not cause trouble are mediocre. How can a cowardly student survive in the brutally competitive Soul Master World? Dai Mubai's ruthlessness is for her own good."
"So this isn't our problem, it's the college's problem."
Tang San's words were full of indignation.
"You are the one who has taught so many outstanding Soul Master, a true Grandmaster who understands the Martial Soul Theory. Your students would be sought after in any academy, but here, we are trampled underfoot by a bunch of mediocre people. Why?"
Although Tang San was targeted with malicious intent because of his handsome appearance, he was completely different from those who were in the same situation, or even the female students whose situation was worse.
These words, falling into Yu Xiaogang's ears, were like red-hot iron thrown into water; Yu Xiaogang's emotions immediately boiled.
