Sword Douluo felt that Yu Chen was just being humble to deliberately disgust the Clear Sky Sect.
It wasn't just the two of them.
Everyone in the Clear Sky Sect in the real World clearly had similar thoughts.
As the current Sect Master of the Clear Sky Sect, Tang Xiao was even angrier, his eyes practically spitting fire.
He was practically grinding his teeth.
However, compared to the outsiders' anger and exasperation,
Yu Chen never felt that anything he said was inappropriate from beginning to end.
He then spoke with a serious expression, adding an explanation:
"Of course not. After I introduce these military spirit tools to the market, not everyone will be able to buy them. After all, these are truly lethal weapons.
It's not like if you give me money and want to buy them, I'll sell them to you.
If the Clear Sky Sect wasn't the head of the Upper Three Sects, an ordinary Sect wouldn't even be qualified to purchase them.
After all, who wouldn't want to buy weapons of this caliber? Don't you agree?"
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School not only possessed the most top-tier support system Spirit on the entire Douluo Continent, but it was also the most commercially astute Sect on the entire Douluo Continent.
Because of this, after a brief moment of misjudgment, Ning Fengzhi quickly realized that Yu Chen wasn't being humble but was speaking the truth.
"I understand. You've dug up the roots of their economic source, used advanced technology to continuously empty their wallets, and then they still have to thank you for giving them this opportunity to purchase. Is that what you mean?"
The more he understood this point,
the more Ning Fengzhi directly felt Yu Chen's power and terrifying nature.
Turning to look at him again,
he couldn't help but exclaim from the bottom of his heart:
"Alas, I only now realize why, when I first met you, even though Qian Xunji's army was already at your doorstep, you remained unfazed, looking as if you had everything under control.
Originally, I thought you were relying on the fortuitous encounter with the Qi Luo Tulip, confident that this item could firmly control the lifeline of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and thus you were fearless. Now, it seems I truly underestimated you. What you truly relied on was this…"
As Ning Fengzhi spoke, he pointed to his head and continued, "You are truly the most terrifying and monstrous young man I have ever seen. Leaving aside your martial prowess, just with this level of strategizing, you are enough to overturn the entire Douluo Continent."
Hearing him say this,
Yu Chen did not become arrogant. Instead, he immediately cupped his hands and humbly said,
"School Master Ning, you flatter me. Yu Chen cannot bear such praise."
"There's no need to be overly modest. I'm just speaking the truth."
Seeing his demeanor, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but shake his head again.
However, he didn't delve deeper into this topic.
He then spoke, adding seriously,
"Your plan is excellent, but there's still a problem: you don't have sales channels that cover the entire continent.
If you truly want to make a name for these military spirit tools, especially terrifying destructive spirit tools like the Red Coat Cannon, in a short period of time,
even with the support of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, it won't be an easy task."
Hearing Ning Fengzhi say this, Bibi Dong and Ah Yin both frowned immediately.
They clearly also felt that this was an extremely thorny problem.
Only Yu Chen, on the other hand, smiled, as if he had already completely seen through School Master Ning's thoughts.
He immediately spoke, adding,
"But in this regard, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is the most skilled, is that what you mean, School Master Ning?"
Ning Fengzhi listened, and his eyes showed even more admiration.
"Exactly. That's why it's so comfortable to talk to smart people. This aspect is indeed our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's strength. After all, everyone knows that our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's commercial network covers the entire Douluo Continent. Besides being famous for our support system Spirit, we are also known for our wealth that can reach the gods.
If you are looking for a partner, there is absolutely no one more suitable than our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School under heaven. Our collaboration this time can also be considered a destiny in the dark."
But halfway through his words, he couldn't help but change the subject, adding,
"However, for me, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, to fully cooperate, I still have one small request."
"Another request? Weren't the rules already set before?"
"Exactly. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School values its reputation the most. How can it do something like adding conditions at the last minute?"
Seeing how happily Ning Fengzhi and Yu Chen were chatting just now,
Bibi Dong and the other woman both felt that the situation was settled.
They both secretly breathed a sigh of relief and were celebrating.
Turning around and hearing Ning Fengzhi say this, they naturally all felt it was unacceptable.
However, seeing everyone's angry expressions,
Ning Fengzhi's face showed no change. He spoke unhurriedly,
"How can this be called adding conditions at the last minute? What was agreed upon before was to help resist Qian Xunji.
What I'm talking about now is helping to promote military spirit tools.
How can these two things be conflated? Especially the latter, this requires deep cooperation between the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Academy and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. For this kind of experiential cooperation, it's not too much to mention it beforehand, is it?"
"…"
Bibi Dong and Ah Yin both fell silent upon hearing this.
Although they still felt unhappy at the moment, they had to admit that
what Ning Fengzhi said made sense, and at this moment, he indeed had the qualifications and ability to make demands of them.
Yu Chen was also surprised to hear this.
However, after pondering, he didn't lose his composure like Bibi Dong and Ah Yin.
After some thought, he instead spoke, seriously asking the other party,
"It's indeed not too much. What exactly are the conditions School Master Ning wants?"
"Could it be that you also want to participate in the research of these military spirit tools?"
"Of course not."
"Even if our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School participates in research of this level, we wouldn't be able to provide much help. On the contrary, we might easily drag Brother Yu down. It's better not to get involved."
"Oh? Is that so? Then what exactly are the conditions the School Master is referring to?"
Seeing his expression,
Yu Chen finally became a little puzzled.
Fortunately, Ning Fengzhi didn't keep him in suspense at this moment.
He immediately spoke, adding excitedly,
"I hope my daughter, Ning Rongrong, can become Brother Yu's disciple. Brother Yu, please accept her as your direct disciple. What do you think, Brother Yu Chen?"
"What did you say… you want me to accept Ning Rongrong as my direct disciple!?"
Yu Chen, who had just been frowning and looking thoughtful, was stunned after hearing this.
He had calculated everything, but he had not calculated that
the condition the other party proposed this time would be this.
So, for a moment, he couldn't help but fall silent.
Seeing his silence, Ning Fengzhi misunderstood Yu Chen's meaning.
He couldn't help but speak, adding hastily,
"As long as Brother Yu agrees and accepts this disciple, all the money required for the future promotion of this Red Coat Cannon and military spirit tools throughout the Douluo Continent, our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School can charge only the cost price as appropriate. We can even charge nothing at all through specific channels."
"I am already so sincere. Is Brother Yu still unwilling to agree to my request?"
By the end of Ning Fengzhi's words, there was even a hint of pleading in his tone.
Hearing him say this, Yu Chen finally came back to his senses, shook his head, and continued to explain,
"School Master Ning, you've misunderstood. How could I refuse such a request when your daughter is so lovely and exceptionally talented? I just didn't expect the School Master to make such a request.
After all, no matter how you look at it, I'm the one benefiting, and School Master Ning and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School aren't getting any benefits at all."
