Tiandou City, the capital of the Tiandou Empire.
The opening ceremony of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament, Tiandou Empire Division, was held in Tiandou City.
As the grandest Soul Master competition in the Soul Master world, it attracted not only the attention of Soul Masters, but also the attention of every citizen of Tiandou City, from royalty and nobility to ordinary people, treating this tournament as their most important festival.
The opening ceremony was held in the Tiandou Grand Soul Arena in Tiandou City. A month in advance, tens of thousands of tickets for the opening ceremony had already been sold out, demonstrating the scale of the tournament.
In the coming period, all the Tiandou division preliminary rounds would be held here.
At this time, centered on the Tiandou Grand Soul Arena, almost a third of Tiandou City was packed with people. Several days in advance, all the luxury hotels in Tiandou City had been fully booked.
The magnificent hotel lobbies were decorated with elegant and luxurious items, and the glittering jewels accentuated the extravagance of the place. The girls of the Tianshui Team looked around curiously.
Luo Yu asked, "Rongrong, didn't the competition organizing committee arrange accommodations for us? Why did we come here?"
Ning Rongrong replied, "Brother Yu, I don't think the environment and food there are very good. We've all come all this way, so let me help arrange something."
Mo Xue exclaimed, "Sister Rongrong, the environment here is so good, it's probably one of the best in Tiandou City, right?"
Ning Rongrong wasn't arrogant; a sweet smile appeared on her face. "I'm glad everyone likes it. Since we're preparing for the competition, we'll definitely try our best to provide everyone with the best accommodations."
Xue Wu leaned closer and poked Ning Rongrong's waist with her finger.
"Sister Xue Wu, it tickles~"
Xue Wu whispered in Ning Rongrong's ear, teasingly saying, "You little rascal, you moved here probably because you don't want Luo Yu to interact with the girls from other teams, right?" "
No way," Ning Rongrong blushed and immediately denied it.
"Tsk tsk."
Su Yaoyun transmitted her voice to Luo Yu's ear, "Little man, you're quite charming. Even the rich girl from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is throwing money at you. With such good conditions, why not just go for it?"
Luo Yu glared at her but didn't say anything.
After assigning everyone's rooms, Luo Yu was sitting in his room when he suddenly heard someone knocking on the door.
"Who is it?"
"Brother Yu, it's me."
"Rongrong?"
Opening the door, Luo Yu was stunned, because standing outside was not only the graceful Ning Rongrong, but also a middle-aged man with a handsome face.
"Sect Leader Ning? What brings you here?" Luo Yu asked curiously.
Ning Fengzhi smiled and said, "It just so happens that I'm also staying at this hotel. Upon learning of your arrival, young friend Luo Yu, I thought I'd bring my daughter along for a chat."
Luo Yu was taken aback, wondering what purpose the sect leader of this place had in coming. He politely said, "Sect Leader Ning, please come in."
Ning Fengzhi noticed Luo Yu's wheelchair and asked in surprise, "What happened to you?"
Luo Yu replied, "I encountered a slight mishap in my cultivation, but it's nothing serious."
"This sect leader knows some renowned doctors. If you need anything, please don't hesitate to ask."
"Thank you for your kindness, Sect Leader, but it's really nothing."
Inside the room, Ning Fengzhi and Luo Yu sat facing each other. Ning Rongrong, her pretty face flushed, was somewhat shy.
Ning Fengzhi glanced at his daughter, then said, "Young friend Luo Yu, I've come here to properly thank you."
"Thank me?" Luo Yu asked, puzzled.
"My daughter has been pampered by me and the two elders of the sect since childhood, so her temperament is naturally quite good. But since she came with you, her change in temperament is so dramatic that even I, her own father, can hardly believe it."
"Dad~" Ning Rongrong called out, her face blushing with shyness.
Luo Yu shook his head and said, "Sect Leader Ning, there's no need to thank me. Rongrong has had excellent relationships with her classmates since she came to Tianshui. She's not as terrible as you make her out to be."
Joy appeared in Ning Rongrong's eyes. Ning Fengzhi glanced at his daughter with a half-smile. How could he not understand what was going on? Without this young man, his daughter would probably still be that little devil.
"Young friend, there's no need to be so modest. Putting aside her personality, my daughter's rapid improvement in strength is also thanks to your help."
Luo Yu was about to speak when Ning Fengzhi pushed his hand to stop him, saying, "The person speaking to you here today is not Sect Leader Ning, but Rongrong's father."
"Whoosh."
After a flash of light, a treasure box appeared in Ning Fengzhi's hand.
"What is this?" Luo Yang asked.
Ning Fengzhi smiled gently, "Inside are two leg bones of soul beasts. Although they weren't from a 100,000-year-old soul beast, they are still treasures of our sect. Please accept them, young friend."
Luo Yu's eyelids twitched. He thought Ning Rongrong was generous enough, but he didn't expect Ning Fengzhi to be even more extravagant,
giving away two soul bones that most people could only dream of. Looking at the incomparably handsome young man before him, Ning Fengzhi showed no reluctance in giving away the two soul bones. He felt it was well worth it, and then he looked at his shy daughter.
Just when Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong thought Luo Yu would happily accept them,
Luo Yu pushed the box back, without even opening it. "Sect Master Ning, thank you for your kindness, but I cannot accept something for nothing. Besides, Rongrong doesn't have any soul bones yet. Wouldn't it be better if you gave them to her? This would also strengthen the team's strength."
"Brother Yu?" Ning Rongrong was stunned.
Ning Fengzhi was astonished. He knew countless people, even Title Douluo couldn't resist the temptation of soul bones, yet this young man wasn't tempted at all? Not even a hint of curiosity?
Little did he know, Luo Yu had already reserved a fully equipped top-tier soul bone for himself, waiting only for his strength to reach the required level to retrieve it. Naturally, he wouldn't covet Ning Fengzhi's little treasure.
Ning Fengzhi clutched the box somewhat awkwardly, "Young friend, perhaps you don't quite understand the importance of soul bones? Perhaps absorbing these two soul bones should allow you to stand up immediately."
Luo Yu instantly understood. Ning Fengzhi must have come prepared, knowing his current immobility, so he decided to offer timely help? This was a clever move, but what was his purpose?
"Thank you for your kindness, Sect Leader Ning, but I really cannot accept this."
Ning Fengzhi gazed into Luo Yu's eyes, and upon seeing the other's unwavering gaze, shook his head with admiration: "Young friend, your calm and composed mindset is truly admirable. I'm afraid you can't find another young person like you on the entire continent."
Hearing her father's approval of Luo Yu, Ning Rongrong's pretty face lit up, looking as if she shared in his pride.
"Sect Leader, you flatter me," Luo Yu said modestly.
"Flattery?" Ning Fengzhi chuckled, his words carrying a deeper meaning: "With you here, Tianshui will likely become famous after this competition."
Luo Yu smiled: "Then I'll take your kind words, Sect Leader."
Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but elevate his opinion of Luo Yu once more. His composure, his lack of ambition for fame and fortune—such a temperament was truly rare.
After chatting casually for a while, Ning Fengzhi began to feel a little uneasy, because the other's nonchalant demeanor was perhaps no less impressive than his own as Sect Leader, and his languid tone subtly carried an air of intellectual eloquence.
Ning Fengzhi suppressed his shock and stood up, smiling, "The competition is tomorrow, so I won't bother you any longer today."
Luo Yu returned the greeting, "Sect Leader Ning, please take care." "Rongrong?
We should go."
The girl sitting there, resting her chin on her hand, stared intently at Luo Yu, her gaze completely captivated.
"Rongrong?"
"Ah!!"
"We should go!" Ning Fengzhi gave a wry smile, feeling somewhat speechless.
"Then I'll go first, Brother Yu, see you tomorrow." Ning Rongrong waved lively.
"Click."
The door closed, and Luo Yu nodded.
Ning Fengzhi seemed quite good in terms of manners and character, quite to his liking, but he felt the other party seemed a bit strange today, sitting here as if holding back something without saying it.
In the corridor outside, Ning Rongrong glared angrily at her father.
"Rongrong, why are you looking at me like that?" Ning Fengzhi asked.
"Dad, you didn't come here this time to give me..." Ning Rongrong stammered, her face turning red as she didn't continue.
Ning Fengzhi shook his head, looking at his daughter, and said, "It's not that Dad doesn't want to propose marriage for you, but considering the other party's temperament and character, it would be pointless to propose. It would only put them in a difficult position and easily cause them to resent it."
"Oh." Disappointment showed on Ning Rongrong's little face.
"Rongrong, if you want the stars in the sky, your dad and Uncle Jian will find a way for you. But this is something your dad can't help you with; you'll have to do it yourself."
"I understand, Dad." Ning Rongrong nodded. "The person I like doesn't care about power or wealth. Shouldn't I be happy?"
Ning Fengzhi hesitated for a moment. "Dad has to remind you."
"Huh?"
"Based on my years of experience, this young friend Luo Yu is exceptionally talented, intelligent, and has a temperament that is rare in this world. You're not good enough yet. If you really like him, you still need to work hard, daughter."
Ning Rongrong retorted indignantly, "How can you talk about your own daughter like that?"
Ning Fengzhi stopped and asked, "Rongrong, do you think what Dad said is right?"
Ning Rongrong was stunned and didn't speak for a long time. Then she clenched her fists together. "Dad, I will definitely work hard in the future! I hope you can point out where I'm not doing well."
"You are my daughter. If you want to improve yourself, how could I not help you?" Ning Fengzhi smiled with satisfaction. He was naturally happy to see his daughter motivated to improve.
That night, an uninvited guest arrived at Luo Yu's room.
Looking at the alluring woman, Luo Yu said speechlessly, "I have a match tomorrow, what are you doing?"
The enchanting Su Yaojing said with seductive eyes, "With your strength, do those rookies even care about your form?"
Luo Yu said irritably, "Then I need to train. I feel that with a little more effort, I should be able to get back on my feet soon."
"Hehehe."
A charming laugh, carrying a unique allure, filled the room, followed by a soft, soothing voice, "But you're already back on your feet now, aren't you?"
