Chapter 235: Wang Teng: I am a vulgar person!
After Ning Rongrong and Zhu Zhuqing left, Ning Fengzhi fell into deep thought, wondering how to arrange things.
The Soul Master Competition was approaching, and for those Spirit Master academies with considerable strength, the participating members had already been chosen. Inserting people midway would certainly not be welcomed.
Even if the academy agreed to let them join, the team members whose spots were taken would definitely harbor resentment.
This kind of thing would be the same for anyone.
After all, the greatest purpose of the Soul Master Competition was to be a stage for the continent's geniuses to showcase their strength. As long as one could win the championship, their name would surely spread throughout the Douluo Continent, and various major powers would extend olive branches.
As for those Spirit Master academies with weaker strength, if their academy team wasn't strong enough, even if the two of them went, they wouldn't get a good ranking. They might just end up with a one-day participation trip.
Needless to say, his little darling would definitely make a fuss, and Ning Fengzhi would also lose face.
Suddenly, Ning Fengzhi thought of Sky City.
"I wonder if anyone from Sky City will participate in the Soul Master Competition?"
Logically speaking, Sky City has considerable strength, so they should make an appearance in this Soul Master Competition, right?
Thinking of this, Ning Fengzhi took out his communication crystal and began to contact Wang Teng.
Sky City had produced many convenient items like the communication crystal, and Wang Teng had given some to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
Inside Sky City, Wang Teng had just sent Wang Chong away and was about to continue practicing his spirit power control when he received a message from Ning Fengzhi.
— "My virtuous nephew, I wonder if Sky City has sent anyone to participate in this Soul Master Competition?"
"??? Ning Fengzhi is actually concerned about this?"
Wang Teng was a bit confused by Ning Fengzhi's meaning.
"Uncle Ning, Sky City doesn't plan to form a team to compete, but my younger brother Wang Chong will participate then."
"Oh? Then I wonder if he has found suitable teammates yet?"
"Not yet, but teammates aren't important; just finding a qualified Spirit Master academy will do."
"That's great! How about I make the arrangements?"
Wang Teng didn't expect Ning Fengzhi to be so enthusiastic.
"Uncle Ning, could it be that Rongrong is also planning to compete?"
"That's right, Rongrong is already a Spirit Ancestor, and my disciple Zhu Zhuqing is also a Level 38 Spirit Elder. Both of them are planning to compete, but they haven't found suitable teammates."
"In that case, I'll have Wang Chong go to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and Uncle Ning, you can help arrange it."
After thinking about it, since Ning Fengzhi was willing to help, he wouldn't need to find a Spirit Master academy himself; he could just pass the responsibility on.
"Good!"
Ning Fengzhi was all smiles. He had met Wang Chong before, and his spirit power level had reached Spirit King, making him a powerful teammate. This way, his little darling and disciple would have the capital to contend for the championship.
Afterward, Wang Teng called for Wang Chong, who had just been sent away.
"Brother, what's wrong?"
Didn't he just leave? Why was there something else?
"Ning Fengzhi's daughter, Ning Rongrong, and his disciple, Zhu Zhuqing, also want to participate in this Soul Master Competition. Go to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and let him arrange your participation qualification."
"Alright, but what are their strengths?"
"One is a Spirit Ancestor, and the other is a Spirit Elder."
"...Brother, with such low strength, they still want to compete?"
Wang Chong was a bit speechless. Was this going to be a babysitting mission?
"Go, go, go, it's easy to talk when you're not in their shoes. Your original talent wasn't even as good as theirs! It's just that they aren't very old. If they were around your age, Ning Rongrong would definitely be a Spirit King."
Wang Teng rolled his eyes at Wang Chong. Good heavens, listen to what you're saying. Do Spirit Ancestors and Spirit Elders not qualify to compete?
"Hehe~"
Wang Chong scratched his head, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Wait here for a moment. Also, bring some things over."
Learning from Ning Fengzhi that Zhu Zhuqing was only a Level 38 Spirit Elder, Wang Teng felt it was a bit low. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School was, after all, his subordinate, so he couldn't let them lose face.
Moreover, according to the original trajectory, if she had the Immortal Herb—narcissus jade muscle bone—Zhu Zhuqing should be a Spirit Ancestor by now.
However, due to Wang Teng's arrival, the trajectory had changed. Because there was no Immortal Herb, Zhu Zhuqing was still at the Spirit Elder level.
So Wang Teng planned to boost her strength. Sky City had many Spirit Bones, but as for 100,000-Year Soul Bones and above, although he didn't care much about them, Wang Teng didn't intend to give them to people he wasn't related to.
Moreover, if it caused a misunderstanding, that wouldn't be good.
Subsequently, Wang Teng went to Sky City's treasury.
Sky City's treasury was not as flashy as those of other forces. Besides a large amount of gold coins, it only contained Spirit Bones.
There was no helping it; Wang Teng was just such a materialistic person.
There were many Spirit Bones in the treasury, but no 100,000-Year Soul Bones or above. All 100,000-Year Soul Bones and above were in Wang Teng's item bar.
Most of these Spirit Bones were high-level Spirit Bones above fifty thousand years, and they were basically dropped from Sea Soul Beasts, so they were mostly water-attribute.
Of course, this didn't mean there were no Spirit Bones of other attributes.
Over the years, Sky City had been eating seafood every day, and there were times when they got tired of it, so they had hunted many land Spirit Beasts as well, with various attributes.
From the treasury, Wang Teng chose a torso bone dropped from a ninety-thousand-year-old Crystal Scaled Beast, and then added a left leg bone dropped from a ninety-thousand-year-old Nether Shadow Leopard.
These two Spirit Bones were also top-tier Spirit Bones in the treasury, especially the ninety-thousand-year Crystal Scaled Beast torso bone.
In Wang Teng's view, for Spirit Bones of the same age, torso bones and head bones were at least worth two limb bones.
A ninety-thousand-year-old Spirit Bone, although not as precious as a 100,000-Year Soul Bone, was still enough to become a legacy Spirit Bone for various major forces on the continent.
Additionally, when spirit rings were not needed, Wang Teng would not let his subordinates hunt Ten-thousand Year Spirit Beasts.
Compared to 100,000-Year Soul Bones, which could be passed down, Wang Teng felt that spirit rings were more important. So even if they encountered one, they wouldn't kill a Ten-thousand Year Spirit Beast just for its Spirit Bone.
Although Ten-thousand Year Spirit Beasts were a renewable resource, their growth cycle was too long. They had to leave some for future generations.
Subsequently, he found Wang Chong and handed him the two Spirit Bones.
"These two Spirit Bones are both ninety thousand years old. The torso bone was dropped from a Crystal Scaled Beast, and the left leg bone was dropped from a Nether Shadow Leopard. Just give them to Ning Fengzhi."
"Oh!"
Wang Chong nodded.
"Brother, does Sky City have a lot of Spirit Bones?"
Seeing his older brother give away two more high-level Spirit Bones, Wang Chong was puzzled. Didn't they say Spirit Bones were very precious? Why did they seem a bit abundant with his older brother? And the Spirit Bones were all so old.
Not to mention anything else, he himself had four Spirit Bones of Ten-thousand Years or more.
"On the vast ocean, although I don't know exactly how many Sea Soul Beasts there are above Ten-thousand Years, Sky City alone has discovered dozens.
There are even more Sea Soul Beasts above fifty thousand years and below Ten-thousand Years. As long as you have the strength, Spirit Bones are not lacking."
"My heavens! There are so many Sea Soul Beasts above Ten-thousand Years on the ocean?"
Wang Chong's eyes widened. He didn't expect there to be so many Sea Soul Beasts on the ocean that were over Ten-thousand Years old.
"The area of the ocean is much vaster than that of the continent.
Moreover, on land, our human territory and the forests where low-level Spirit Beasts are raised occupy most of it. The famous wild Spirit Beast gathering places on the continent are only Sunset Forest, Star Dou Great Forest, and Extreme North Land.
In addition, on land, Spirit Beasts can only live on a single plane.
However, in the ocean, the habitats of Sea Soul Beasts are three-dimensional. In the same sea area, they can survive near the surface and also at the bottom of the sea.
Coupled with the small number of Spirit Masters who go to the ocean to hunt Sea Soul Beasts, it can be said that Sea Soul Beasts are abundant."
"Then why don't those Level 90 quasi-Titled Douluo go to the ocean to hunt Ten-thousand Year Spirit Beasts?"
Wang Chong was a bit confused. On the continent, Titled Douluo with Ten-thousand Year spirit rings were very rare, except for Sky City. Didn't they think of searching in the ocean?
"You haven't been to the ocean, so you don't know the strength of Sea Soul Beasts. On the ocean, Sea Soul Beasts have a natural buff.
For example, our father, a Level 95 Titled Douluo, who has condensed a Spirit Core, is covered in high-level Spirit Bones, and has Ten-thousand Year spirit rings. On land, he can defeat even powerful Ten-thousand Year Spirit Beasts.
But in the ocean, let alone powerful ones, he might not even be able to defeat ordinary Ten-thousand Year Spirit Beasts.
And if a Sea Soul Beast hides in the ocean, there's nothing you can do.
For lower-level Titled Douluo from the outside, it's even a question whether they can defeat a ninety-thousand-year-old Sea Soul Beast in the ocean."
...No wonder no land Spirit Masters go to hunt Sea Soul Beasts!
Wang Chong suddenly understood. So that was the reason.
"That's natural. Moreover, unless they are related, no one will help you hunt Ten-thousand Year Spirit Beasts.
Compared to Titled Douluo from the outside, even the weakest Ten-thousand Year Spirit Beast has the strength of a Level 95 Titled Douluo. Without two Level 95 Titled Douluo leading the team, trying to hunt a Ten-thousand Year Spirit Beast is a pipe dream.
Even if they encounter a powerful Ten-thousand Year Spirit Beast, two Level 95 Titled Douluo might not be safe; they could very well die.
Coupled with the rarity of Ten-thousand Year Spirit Beasts, most Titled Douluo on the continent do not have Ten-thousand Year spirit rings."
"Then, Big Brother, I want a Ten-thousand Year spirit ring too!"
Wang Chong said shyly.
"Get out of here! You've just advanced to Spirit Emperor, and you're already thinking about spirit rings? Besides, your small body can't handle a Ten-thousand Year spirit ring. We'll talk about it later!"
Wang Teng gave him a disgusted look. What kind of beautiful dream was he having!
"Alright, then I'll go to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School first."
Wang Chong said awkwardly. What his older brother said was true. With his small body, even if a Ten-thousand Year spirit ring was placed in front of him when he reached Level 70 quasi-Spirit Saint, he wouldn't be able to absorb it.
If he forcibly absorbed it, the only result would be exploding and dying.
There were many Spirit Masters on the continent who coveted higher spirit ring ages, and examples of exploding and dying appeared every year. This was a bloody lesson.
"Mm, go!"
Wang Teng waved his hand, sending Wang Chong away.
