Dongfang Yao broke through her limits and left the pet shop, continuing her run along the Seven Treasures City.
When she returned to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School, Ning Rongrong was already awake.
She skipped over to Dongfang Yao, took her hand, and said, "Yao'er, play with me today? Tell me a new story, okay?"
Dongfang Yao gently shook her head: "Sorry, Rongrong, I want to cultivate."
Hearing this, Ning Rongrong immediately puffed out her cheeks and shook off her hand: "Cultivate, cultivate! Is that all you know? I don't care, you have to play with me today!"
Hearing these willful words, Dongfang Yao couldn't help but feel a headache.
When she first met Ning Rongrong, she thought the other party was warm, cheerful, and helpful, seemingly an easy girl to get along with.
But after spending more time with her, she discovered that this daughter of the sect leader was far too spoiled and loved to throw princess-like tantrums.
However, given her status and family background, she certainly deserved the title of "princess."
Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong also doted on her, further fueling her temper.
Thinking of this, Dongfang Yao couldn't help but miss her brother.
Dongfang Jing also doted on her immensely, always giving her the best and treating her like a princess!
The moment this thought crossed her mind, she couldn't help but let out a silly, infatuated smile.
"Hey! I'm talking to you! What are you laughing at?" Ning Rongrong stomped her feet in exasperation.
This new disciple of Grandpa Sword was so rude, daring to disobey her orders!
"Rongrong," Dongfang Yao patiently advised, "Soul power cultivation should begin early; the younger you are, the faster you progress. As you grow older, the rate of improvement slows down, and without special opportunities, it's difficult to achieve major breakthroughs; you can only slowly wait for time to pass."
She always remembered her brother's teachings and tried to persuade this young lady.
But Ning Rongrong hardened her face, completely ignoring all reasoning, and still said domineeringly, "Anyway, you have to play with me! Otherwise..."
"Otherwise what?"
Ning Fengzhi's voice suddenly rang out, startling Ning Rongrong.
Turning around, she found her father, Sword Grandpa, and Bone Grandpa already standing not far away.
Ning Fengzhi's face darkened as he scolded, "Rongrong, you're so insensible! Instead of cultivating properly, you're going to delay Yao'er's progress?"
"I...I just think cultivation is too boring," Ning Rongrong stammered in protest. "Besides, with such good talent, what's wrong with playing for a few days? I can cultivate anytime!"
"Insolence!" Ning Fengzhi shouted. "Your talent within the sect is indeed outstanding; you're the most promising genius in hundreds of years to evolve the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Eight Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda! But that doesn't mean you can be arrogant and conceited!"
Chen Xin and Gu Rong stood quietly to the side, surprisingly remaining silent this time.
Normally, they would have already smoothed things over and continued to pamper Ning Rongrong.
But now, with another obedient girl calling them "Master" and "Grandpa," and this little girl being so diligent and hardworking, any elder would inevitably feel a sense of goodwill.
He couldn't help but compare her to Ning Rongrong.
The difference was indeed quite significant.
Moreover, Ning Rongrong was clearly in the wrong; not only did she not cultivate herself, but she also tried to hinder others.
"You're seven years old this year, yet you're stuck at the first level of the cultivation realm. Do you know what level Yao'er's brother—"
Ning Fengzhi stopped abruptly, almost mentioning the "deceased" Dongfang Jing again.
He coughed lightly and changed his words, "Do you know what level of soul power Yao'er has, the same age as you?"
Father and daughter were speechless for a moment.
At this moment, Chen Xin spoke, breaking the silence: "Disciple, come with me to obtain a soul ring."
"Yes, Master." Dongfang Yao ran to Chen Xin's side.
Chen Xin looked at her with satisfaction, then suddenly noticed her hair and said, "Disciple, your hair seems a bit long. Should you cut it short? Short hair like Rongrong's looks very energetic."
Dongfang Yao immediately took two steps back, protecting her head with both hands: "Absolutely not!"
"Hahaha!" Gu Rong couldn't help but laugh, "You've really gone mad from practicing swordsmanship! Yao'er is a girl, her hair is very precious to them! Haha, you silly bird!"
Chen Xin finally reacted and nodded repeatedly in agreement.
But hearing Gu Rong's mockery, he immediately retorted: "Old man, if it weren't for the fact that I had to take my disciple to hunt for a soul ring, I would have beaten you to a pulp!"
"Hey? Come on! Who's afraid of who?"
"Hmph, I'm too lazy to argue with you. Disciple, let's go, let's ignore this idiot."
"Goodbye Uncle Ning, goodbye Grandpa Bone!" Dongfang Yao smiled and waved to the two of them, then looked at Ning Rongrong, who was standing there dumbfounded, and waved to her as well.
Watching Dongfang Yao's departing figure with Chen Xin, Ning Rongrong's eyes widened.
Obtain a soul ring?
Does this mean Yao'er has already reached level 20?
They are the same age, both seven years old.
But Yao'er was nearly ten levels higher than her, and her first spirit ring was already a thousand-year level!
What about her second spirit ring? Would it also be a thousand years? Or even ten thousand years?
At this moment,Ning Rongrong finally understood what it meant to be outmatched.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, located in Seven Treasure City, was adjacent to Heaven Dou City, and the nearest spirit master forest was Sunset Forest.
Mentioning Sunset Forest,Dongfang Yao couldn't help but recall the squirrel spirit beast her brother had brought back, which she later released back into the wild.
Riding on Sword Douluo's flying sword, the journey was over in an instant.
Chen Xin solemnly instructed, "Disciple, stay close to your master and do not stray far."
Dongfang Yao nodded in response, "Master, I hope my second spirit ring can be from a spirit beast with a cultivation of two thousand years."
Chen Xin frowned slightly.
Although he knew that Dongfang Yao had taken a "special potion" that allowed her to absorb spirit rings of higher age, was choosing a two-thousand-year spirit ring directly too risky?
Seeing his doubt, Dongfang Yao explained with a slightly forlorn expression, "I remember my brother saying that as long as you drink that potion, you can absorb a two-thousand-year-old soul ring like him."
This was, of course, something she made up.
But the ability to absorb a two-thousand-year-old soul ring was a fact.
A year ago, when they went to sea, they cooperated with the Demon Soul Great White Shark clan.
Dongfang Jing used the Hall of Ten Thousand Mirrors to capture five ten-thousand-year-old demonic tiger whales, meaning he obtained five pieces of ten-thousand-year-old whale glue.
After the brother and sister each consumed one piece, three pieces remained.
Dongfang Yao consumed two of them, while Dongfang Jing, possessing the ability to split the soul with his mirror body, only needed to consume one.
They could both clearly feel it, especially Dongfang Yao.
The more whale glue consumed, the less effective the enhancement became.
But having consumed three pieces of ten-thousand-year-old whale glue, absorbing a soul ring of around two thousand years was indeed no problem for her.
After hearing her explanation, Chen Xin said no more.
Since his disciple was so certain, as her master, he naturally had to fully support her.
What pleased Chen Xin even more was that Dongfang Yao earnestly stated, "Master, once we encounter a suitable soul beast, I want to fight it with my own strength first!"
Such determination and courage at such a young age filled
Chen Xin with outward composure but inwardly great satisfaction and admiration.
