Chapter 102: The Three Clans Must Unite
"Indeed," Ning Fengzhi said with a bitter smile. "A Titled Douluo under twenty-five, and the youngest High Priest of Spirit Hall—the thought alone is chilling. Compared to her, Tang Hao and Tang Xiao, the so-called Clear Sky Twin Stars, can barely hope to catch up."
If only his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan had such a powerful individual, they wouldn't be so passive.
"Is she really that formidable?" Bone Douluo asked, somewhat disbelieving.
"The former Second High Priest, Golden Crocodile Douluo, is from my grandfather's era," Sword Douluo said in a deep voice. "Twenty years ago, his spirit power had already reached level 98, and his ninth spirit ring was a hundred-thousand-year one. Even my grandfather, also at level 98, never managed to defeat him. Such a formidable individual was defeated by Jingni Douluo, and she did so while her spirit power was lower. Do you still think she's not formidable?"
At these words, Bone Douluo immediately quieted down, swallowing hard. "How on earth did she reach that realm before twenty-five?"
"Because she is a twin Martial Soul user, and she has successfully cultivated them," Ning Fengzhi's face was solemn.
"Twin Martial Souls? That can be successfully cultivated?" Bone Douluo was stunned. That meant her second Martial Soul would have spirit rings starting at ten thousand years. He couldn't even compare.
"What surprises me," Sword Douluo said, "is Spirit Hall's grand publicizing of this new Second High Priest. The High Priests are the foundation of Spirit Hall and generally don't act easily. Why is it so unusual this time?"
"There are rumors that Jingni Douluo is the wife of Spirit Hall's Second Majesty, Qin Xuan," Ning Fengzhi voiced his conjecture, feeling a pang of sourness. "The grand display might be Spirit Hall's attempt to win her over. After all, she is simply too young."
"So... what do you plan to do, Fengzhi?" Sword Douluo asked, his expression solemn.
Ning Fengzhi was silent for a moment, then walked to the entrance of the great hall. "The Sect Competition, while ostensibly balancing the various forces, is in reality merely a means for Spirit Hall to weaken the major clans. If this continues, the entire Spirit Master world will be swallowed by them. Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan must not sit idly by."
"Then are we not going to contend for the title?" Bone Douluo asked, unwilling to give up.
"Of course we will," Ning Fengzhi pursed his lips. "However, it won't be a fight to the death. I've decided to use this competition to secretly contact the Clear Sky Clan and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, to stand united and jointly resist the increasingly powerful Spirit Hall."
In the damp Dragon's Tomb of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, only two people stood in the grand hall.
"Big Brother, whether our clan can become the World's Number One Sect in this competition depends entirely on you," Yu Luomian said respectfully.
"Now that Tang Chen is no longer here, that old fellow Tang Tian is nothing in my eyes. This World's Number One Sect, my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan is determined to win it," the clan master, Yu Yuanzhen, declared, his voice full of domineering ambition.
"Big Brother is mighty," Yu Luomian praised.
"Alright, stop flattering me," Yu Yuanzhen said casually. "Do you have any news of Xiao Gang?"
"It is said he has now joined Spirit Hall," Yu Luomian replied. "He is currently staying in Spirit City."
"Joined Spirit Hall?" Yu Yuanzhen frowned, his expression somewhat displeased.
