Seven Treasures Evolve into Nine! Yu Xiaogang Was Completely Dumbfounded!

[Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect (Manga World)]

[Faction Foundations: One of the Upper Three Sects among the Seven Great Sects of Douluo Continent, with over five thousand Soul Master disciples, comprising several hundred direct descendants of the clan and over four thousand affiliated disciples from outside the clan, more than ten core elders at the Soul Douluo level, and two Titled Douluo from outside the clan at the Super Douluo level serving as sect guardian elders.

With a legacy spanning ten thousand years, the sect is universally acknowledged on Douluo Continent as the world's foremost support sect. It maintains good relations with all major powers, and its commercial reach is particularly outstanding, extending throughout the Heaven Dou Empire. Its accumulated wealth ranks first on the continent, rivaling that of a nation!

Its inherited martial soul is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, a top-tier support-type tool martial soul universally acknowledged as the continent's "number one." Though it appears powerful and glorious, cultivating it is actually fraught with hardship, and it possesses an innate limitation that is difficult to break. Fortunately, paired with the sect's exclusive inherited Heart Separation Control Secret Method, one person can support many, making the pagoda's name unrivaled beneath the heavens!

However, this martial soul's innate limitation is not absolute, and it can still be overcome later in life. Ning Rongrong, daughter of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's master, consumed an Aromatic Silk Beauty growing in the peerless treasure trove, the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well. Her martial soul evolved directly from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, completely breaking through its limitations and giving her a future without limits!]

After the comparison of the two worlds' factions was complete.

The Sky Screen immediately announced the results of this round:

[The first round of comparison, [Faction Foundations], has ended!]

[Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect (Manga World), victory!]

[Score]:

[Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect (Anime World), 0 points!]

[Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect (Manga World), 1 point!]

[The second round of comparison, [Core Members’ Combat Strength and Conduct], will begin shortly!]

The score for the first round slowly settled into place.

The next instant, an uproar swept through both worlds:

"The Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda! The Manga World's Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda successfully evolved!"

"The Seven Treasure Pagoda was already a Top-Level Martial Soul at the very top of the top tier. If it evolved into Nine Treasures, wouldn't that make it a super martial soul?!"

"Oh my god! The Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well really exists! If I could get an immortal herb, I'd definitely soar straight into the heavens!"

Cries of shock and envy swept through the Two Worlds, and countless Soul Masters' eyes reddened.

For a time, Soul Masters across the Two Worlds stirred up a wave of searches for the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

Whether it was Spirit Hall, the two great empires, or the other sects and factions!

Those with the standing and connections launched large-scale searches, while those without either joined the hunt as well.

The Manga World.

Heaven Dou City, Shrek Academy.

"Wow!!"

Ning Rongrong looked at her own name on the Sky Screen, her eyes shining as though they held a sky full of stars:

"My Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda has been revealed! Our world won the first round, too!"

Xiao Wu smiled and bounded over to link arms with her, giving her arm a shake:

"Rongrong, you're amazing! The two sects looked about equal in strength and resources. We must have won because we had your Nine Treasures Pagoda!"

Zhu Zhuqing also approached. Usually cool and aloof, she gave a faint smile and said:

"Congratulations."

Everyone around them gathered to offer their congratulations as well, their faces filled with genuine joy.

(Switching to another illustration and asking you sweeties again!)

(Do you prefer Shrek's three beauties from the animation or the comic???)

After a brief flurry of excitement.

Tang San turned to his teacher and asked curiously:

"Teacher, what do you think about the second round comparing the Core Members’ Combat Strength and Conduct of Rongrong's sect?"

At his words, everyone instinctively turned toward Yu Xiaogang.

Yu Xiaogang did not answer immediately. Only after pondering for a long time did he speak:

"Judging by the previous comparison of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the core structure on both sides is roughly the same. They should both consist of Sect Master Ning and the two sect guardian Douluo, Sword and Bone!"

"However, since our Rongrong evolved her martial soul into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda first, that indicates a greater opportunity for Nine Treasures on our side. Relatively speaking, our chances of winning should be somewhat higher."

Everyone nodded in agreement, finding his words very reasonable.

Ning Rongrong smiled and raised her eyes to gaze toward her sect in the distance.

Dad, Grandpa Sword, Grandpa Bone...

They should be very happy to see us win the first round, too!

Utopia, the mountain behind the City Lord's Mansion.

The Snow Empress watched the results on the Sky Screen, a hint of a smile in her eyes:

"Dad, our world won the first round for ninth place again. Do you think we'll win the second round, too?"

Ye Han's gaze was calm, his tone as light as the wind:

"Don't rush. Just keep watching. If I explained everything ahead of time, it would spoil the fun."

The Snow Empress paused, then rested her chin in both hands as she looked at him, her gaze growing a little more admiring.

Ever since she had first met Dad, he had always been like this, unruffled no matter what happened.

Only that one time, when she had nearly failed her tribulation, had Dad been frantic, risking his life to withstand the heavenly tribulation for her.

Otherwise, she would have suffered far more than a brief loss of memory...

"Hmm? Little Xue?"

Seeming to sense something, Ye Han turned to look at her.

"Ah, nothing..."

The Snow Empress hurriedly withdrew her gaze and looked back at the Sky Screen, a blush unknowingly spreading across her pretty face:

"I was just thinking about the results of the second round..."

Ye Han had lived two lives, yet he had always adhered to masculine virtue and had never been romantically involved with a woman.

But he was a mature man, after all, not a block of wood. How could he fail to notice anything?

Still, he could not be entirely certain. After all, the little snow maiden was calling him Dad now!

(A question for you sweeties!!)

(Do you like the comic's Snow Empress? Would you like her to be the female lead?!)

(And the Ice Empress, do you sweeties like her? She'll be appearing soon, too!!)

Elsewhere.

The Anime World.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect.

"We lost... the very first round..."

Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong were all stunned when they saw the results on the Sky Screen.

"Sigh..."

At their head, Ning Fengzhi's fingertips tightened slightly, and he let out a long sigh.

Chen Xin and Gu Rong exchanged a glance. Coming back to their senses, they both offered words of comfort:

"Fengzhi, it's only the first round! There are still two rounds left!"

"Besides, look! Rongrong in the other world successfully evolved her martial soul!"

"This confirms that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda really can evolve, and immortal herbs truly exist!"

"As long as we find our world's Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well and its immortal herbs, our Rongrong can do it, too!"

Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi suppressed his disappointment and nodded firmly:

"You're right. We must devote the entire sect's strength to the search. This is the future of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!"

At the same time.

Suotuo City, Shrek Academy.

"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect of my Anime World lost..."

Ning Rongrong stared at the results on the Sky Screen, finding them somewhat hard to accept for a moment.

But when she looked at the words "Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda" again, she was instantly overjoyed:

"You all saw it, right? The other world's me really did consume an immortal herb and evolve her martial soul into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!!"

As she spoke, she strode up to Yu Xiaogang, chin raised, her exultant voice ringing throughout the academy:

"'Grandmaster' Yu! You said earlier that if someone really could advance the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to Eight Treasures or Nine Treasures, you would honor the wager and admit defeat!"

"Now you've lost! Hurry up, get on your knees, and kowtow to apologize to me!!!"

With every sentence she spoke, Yu Xiaogang's face grew a shade paler.

Everyone present turned in unison, their gazes all landing on him.

"This... how is this possible..."

Yu Xiaogang stared fixedly at the Sky Screen, his face filled with disbelief.

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda really could evolve into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda?!

And it had happened to Ning Rongrong in the other world? How was that possible?!

He had plagiarized Spirit Hall's martial soul theory... pfft!

He had poured his heart and soul into studying martial soul theory all his life, yet he had never heard of this!

But the Sky Screen stated it in black and white, like a slap that left his cheeks burning with pain!

At that moment, Yu Xiaogang's mind went utterly blank. Completely dumbfounded, he stood frozen in place.

Yet in his heart, he still refused to accept it!!

He was the world's foremost Theoretical Grandmaster of martial souls. Even if he lost, how could he kneel before a junior?!

If he really knelt and word got out, wouldn't he become the laughingstock of the entire continent? Where would his dignity as Grandmaster go?!

However, before he could speak in his own defense.

The comparison Sky Screen overhead gave everyone little time to digest what had happened.

Brilliant golden light shone once more, the lettering rearranged itself, and a new comparison arrived!

[The comparison continues!]

[Second round of comparison—Core Members’ Combat Strength and Conduct!]

[Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect (Anime World)]

[Core Members’ Combat Strength and Conduct:
