"Perhaps I'm just naturally suited to this kind of skill." Su Cheng put away his martial soul, looking somewhat embarrassed.
This was an act.
He had long ago decided that he would never hesitate to seize any opportunity to showcase his abilities in front of Ning Fengzhi.
"However, I'm only just beginning. To continue improving, I need Rongrong to guide me further."
Ning Rongrong pursed her lips, remaining silent.
"We can discuss this later." Seeing this, Ning Fengzhi secretly felt embarrassed for his daughter, chuckled, and quickly changed the subject, "Su Cheng, what are your plans for the future?"
"I want to work hard to improve my cultivation over the next few years, and then witness the prowess of other young powerhouses from other academies on the continent during the Soul Master Competition."
Ning Fengzhi nodded; he had anticipated this.
He had been present when Su Cheng enrolled and insisted on joining the Royal Fighting Team, and had roughly guessed his intentions.
Looking at Ning Rongrong, Su Cheng tentatively asked, "Sect Master, isn't Rongrong planning to join an advanced Soul Master Academy?"
Although sect disciples have good learning conditions within their respective sects, except for reclusive sects like the Clear Sky Sect, disciples from most sects still join various Soul Master Academies for their studies.
Systematic knowledge and teamwork among Soul Masters are only one reason; the key is that as sect disciples, expanding their network is essential.
And the academy is the best channel to meet young Soul Masters.
"Rongrong, what are your thoughts?"
After a moment of contemplation, Ning Fengzhi also looked at Ning Rongrong.
Clearly, he understood his daughter's personality well and knew that forcing her would be useless; it was better to let her decide for herself.
He had actually had this idea for a while, otherwise he wouldn't have occasionally taken Ning Rongrong away from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to visit others.
Ning Rongrong hesitated upon hearing this, glancing at Ning Fengzhi and then at Su Cheng sitting to the side.
Su Cheng immediately knew he had a chance; it was now his turn to play the straight man.
"I think it's a real waste for Rongrong to stay secluded with her talent. The Soul Master Competition is a great opportunity to showcase the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul to everyone."
"What's the point of the Royal Academy?" Ning Rongrong muttered. This place is too close to home; she doesn't want to study here at all.
Hearing this, Ning Fengzhi frowned, instinctively wanting to reprimand her.
"The Heaven Dou Royal Academy is indeed pointless; the students there are all very weak." To Ning Fengzhi's surprise, Su Cheng actually nodded in agreement with Ning Rongrong.
"However, there are only three years left until the Soul Master Competition. After we win the championship, can't we leave this place?"
Hearing this, Ning Rongrong was immediately tempted.
As the young lady of a top sect, she had seen countless so-called geniuses, but she had never seen anyone as strong as Su Cheng.
Regardless of her feelings towards him, this strength was undeniable.
"We have a chance to win?"
"Of course!" Su Cheng nodded confidently, looking triumphant. "With your number one support-type spirit, why wouldn't we have a chance if we cooperate?"
Ning Fengzhi glanced at him but didn't say anything more.
He wasn't really interested in winning; he just wanted to use this opportunity to train this future heir of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. He
had originally intended to wait for the next competition, but participating earlier was a good idea.
As for the other's talk of winning, Ning Fengzhi was actually somewhat skeptical.
Although Su Cheng was strong and highly talented, he knew very well how deep the Spirit Hall's foundation was.
No matter how outstanding this kid was, he was still just one person.
But a team participating in the Spirit Master Competition needed seven people to cooperate in battle. The next day, Su Cheng and Ning Rongrong returned to the Heaven Dou Royal Academy together.
With Su Cheng and Ning Fengzhi taking the lead, and Chen Xin and Gu Rong cooperating, Ning Rongrong ultimately chose to enroll in this advanced soul master academy closest to her home.
Having spent time together along the way, Su Cheng had roughly figured out how to get along with this young lady from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
First, you need to be strong enough to gain her approval.
On that basis, flatter her a bit, subtly hinting at your own interests; it's easy to win this naive girl over.
Ning Rongrong was actually quite willing to listen to advice when she didn't understand something.
"Brother, were you serious about what you said yesterday about support-type soul masters?"
Once at the academy, she finally asked the question that had been weighing on her mind.
"Ah, this is just one of my ideas. As you can see, I like to research soul skills myself. Weapon spirits inherently possess some tool-like characteristics, and even support-type spirits and attack-type spirits share some similarities."
"Student Su Cheng."
Ning Rongrong was about to ask more questions when three students from the academy approached, seemingly waiting specifically for Su Cheng.
"Who are you?" Su Cheng turned to look at the newcomers, somewhat surprised.
"I am Xue Beng. I saw your impressive demeanor yesterday and have been wanting to talk to you ever since, but you went straight to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. I had no choice but to wait here."
The young man at the head of the group said with a smile, appearing very polite.
"Your surname is Xue?"
"He is the fourth prince of the Heaven Dou Empire."
Ning Rongrong reminded Su Cheng from the side.
She didn't react much upon seeing Xue Beng.
During the time Xue Beng was causing trouble, she was still young and mostly stayed within the sect, so she didn't know much about the situation.
Besides, Xue Beng wouldn't go to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School to cause any trouble.
Over the years, he had become much more restrained, and Ning Rongrong didn't seem to dislike him.
"So it's His Highness the Fourth Prince." Su Cheng nodded. "Is there something you need?"
He secretly wondered why this Fourth Prince wasn't quite what he had imagined.
"My own cultivation talent isn't very good, so I've always admired you genius soul masters. Would you do me the honor of having a meal together and exchanging ideas?"
Su Cheng did intend to approach Xue Beng, but now wasn't the best time.
Just as he was about to decline, someone else approached.
"Student Su Cheng, His Highness the Crown Prince has come to the academy and says he wants to see you."
Hearing this, before Su Cheng could say anything, Xue Beng, standing to the side, suddenly changed his expression, his smile instantly becoming much more strained.
Su Cheng frowned inwardly at this.
Xue Qinghe coming to the academy was normal, but what was wrong with Xue Beng's state?
Was he so frightened just by hearing a name?
"Something's not right. There's something strange about Heaven Dou City these days. Ning Fengzhi and Xue Beng aren't what I imagined. Is it because I've subtly changed something?" Su Cheng pondered to himself.
"But I've been in Notting City for the past few years. There's no reason I should be affecting the situation in Heaven Dou City, which is so far away." (
