Ning Rongrong Joins the Spirit Hall Team

But Douluo Continent is far too fragile. It restricts the power of my Martial Soul. Perhaps only when I break through to a higher plane someday will I be able to truly unleash the might of the Pangu Axe.

Once I fight my way into the Divine Realm, I'll use the Pangu Axe to chop the Asura Demon Sword in half and bring it home as firewood. And that Sea God probably isn't anything good either. Isn't Bo Saixi a pitiful woman? The Sea God fooled her senseless, and she willingly sacrificed herself for him.

What, just because you're a god, you can casually control other people's lives? Put nicely, you're called a god. Put bluntly, you're a damn farmer!

The rotten gods of Douluo Continent truly insult the title of god. One day, I'll overturn your Divine Realm and make that Asura God kneel and sing surrender.

After venting for a while, Chu Bai felt utterly refreshed, as though he had glimpsed a new life...

[Host has completed the Roast Diary. Roast damage: Low. Reward obtained: Soul Power increased by one level.]

Chu Bai suddenly opened his eyes. Feeling the aura within him rapidly grow stronger, intense delight filled his eyes. Thanks to that one level of Soul Power from the system, he had truly broken through to level fifty.

"I thought I'd need to cultivate in seclusion for a while longer. I didn't expect to become a Spirit King just like that. As for the Spirit Ring, I'll leave that slot empty for now."

Chu Bai had no intention of wasting his precious Spirit Ring slots.

After all, the system would reward him with Spirit Rings.

Of course, if he encountered a suitable one, Chu Bai would still choose to obtain it. The system's rewards seemed to include increasing the age of Spirit Rings as well, so he had nothing to worry about.

"Teacher, I've broken through to Spirit King."

The next day, Chu Bai came before Bibi Dong. Upon hearing this, she immediately set aside what she was doing and used her powerful Soul Power to examine him. Sure enough, he had reached the Spirit King level!

"Good. You haven't disappointed your teacher. Since that's the case, I'll take you to the Star Dou Great Forest to find a suitable Fifth Spirit Ring." Bibi Dong did not hesitate.

Without a Spirit Ring, Chu Bai's Soul Power would remain at a bottleneck. If that continued for too long, it would not be a good thing.

"I want to wait a little longer."

Chu Bai said, "I want to wait for my Spirit Ring. Even if we go to the Star Dou Great Forest now, we might not find a suitable one. Besides, perhaps I'll obtain a Spirit Ring that suits me even better later on."

Bibi Dong was stunned. Just as she was about to speak, she recalled the hundred-thousand-year Spirit Ring possessed by Chu Bai's Second Martial Soul.

Could it be that Chu Bai truly had some special method of obtaining Spirit Rings?

"Then all right. Your teacher won't force you. A Soul Master's limits have always varied from person to person; there has never been a fixed standard. The longer you accumulate strength, the more powerful the Spirit Ring you can absorb will naturally be. Your teacher hopes that, while ensuring your own safety, you can obtain Spirit Rings that are as powerful and suitable for you as possible."

Bibi Dong rubbed Chu Bai's head. "In that case, get some proper rest first. If you need anything, come find me. I will definitely help you find the best Spirit Ring, even one that is a hundred thousand years old."

Chu Bai froze for a moment, then felt that this was what a teacher was supposed to say!

Not stubbornly insisting that a Soul Master's limit was four hundred and twenty-three years, that absorbing even one year more would ruin you and destroy your future!

Maybe that was the difference between one teacher and another.

"Your Holiness the Pope, Ning Fengzhi of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has come to visit." Suddenly, Gui Mei appeared.

"Ning Fengzhi? Why has he come so suddenly?" Bibi Dong frowned slightly.

"Probably because the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has now entered into a cooperative relationship with Spirit Hall, and Teacher is still the one currently in control of Spirit Hall. Sect Master Ning likely wishes to meet you in person."

Chu Bai smiled from the side.

"Mm. Is he accompanied by Chen Xin or Gu Rong?" Bibi Dong asked again.

"Only two girls accompanied him," Gui Mei replied.

"Oh? That is rather unusual. He actually chose to come to Spirit Hall without bringing those two Titled Douluo. It seems he is testing Spirit Hall's sincerity in this cooperation as well. In that case, let him in."

Bibi Dong nodded.

A moment later, Ning Fengzhi arrived with Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing.

Chu Bai was somewhat puzzled.

It was perfectly normal for Ning Fengzhi to come, but why had Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing come too?

"Sect Master Ning, it has been a long time." Bibi Dong rose to her feet with a smile.

"Your Holiness the Pope, Fengzhi has come uninvited. Please forgive the intrusion." Ning Fengzhi chuckled, then gave Chu Bai, who stood beside Bibi Dong, a slight nod.

"Sect Master Ning, have you come regarding the cooperation between the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and Spirit Hall?" Bibi Dong stepped forward. She knew Ning Fengzhi bore no hostility, so naturally she did not speak to him with her usual lofty manner as the Pope.

After all, Ning Fengzhi had been brought in by Chu Bai. If she acted high and mighty, she might damage this cooperative relationship.

If she could truly bring the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect into the fold, Spirit Hall's overall strength would undoubtedly undergo a qualitative leap.

"Indeed. Although Chu Bai is the Holy Son of Spirit Hall, Fengzhi believes that since this is a cooperation, it is only natural that I meet Your Holiness the Pope in person."

Ning Fengzhi nodded.

Bibi Dong was straightforward as well. "Sect Master Ning need not worry. The cooperation between Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will proceed entirely according to what Xiao Bai promised you. This is our sincerity. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect may remain independent, but we hope that in major matters, it will stand in line with Spirit Hall."

"Of course. After all, Chu Bai has given the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect terms we cannot refuse." Hearing Bibi Dong's words, Ning Fengzhi could not help but think even more highly of Chu Bai.

Did Bibi Dong trust Chu Bai that much? Without even thinking it over, she had agreed to Chu Bai's proposal. He had come this time precisely to test Spirit Hall, but now he could finally relax a little.

"Rong Rong, why have you come too?" Chu Bai asked.

"I..."

Seeing Ning Rongrong's embarrassed expression, Ning Fengzhi spoke up. "Rong Rong left Shrek Academy, but she cannot settle down within the sect either. We had no choice. This time, I also hoped to let Rong Rong join Spirit Hall Academy. Would that be possible?"

"Huh?"

Chu Bai stared at Ning Rongrong in astonishment. He had indeed considered having Ning Rongrong join the Spirit Hall Team, but he had not expected her to come knocking on the door herself.

"Spirit Hall Academy naturally welcomes her. Why not have Xiao Bai take charge of her?" Bibi Dong nodded. Who would refuse having a Soul Master with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda on their team?

"What about Zhu Zhuqing? Is she joining the Spirit Hall Team too?" Chu Bai asked Ning Rongrong.
