Chapter 126 Ning Fengzhi: You Can't Win Hao Over If You Can't Spend Your Daughter.
The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the school's council hall.
The luxury here will exceed your expectations.
In the very center of the hall, there was a throne made of Heavenly Heart Warm Jade, on which were carved lifelike Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, Seven Kill Sword, and Bone Dragon.
To the right of the throne is a three-meter-tall natural red diamond coral, and to the right is a two-meter-tall money tree, adorned with jade, agate, pearls, and glass.
The hall is nine meters high, eighty-one meters long and wide, and is supported by one hundred bronze pillars, each of which is decorated with dragons and painted beams. The overall style is luxurious and imposing.
At this very moment, on the warm jade chair in the center of the hall sat a middle-aged man with a handsome face and wearing magnificent clothes.
Beside the middle-aged man, several maids were massaging his back and shoulders, while the man himself held a secret report, carefully reading its contents.
As he read the contents of the secret report, the middle-aged man's gaze sometimes relaxed and sometimes furrowed slightly.
However, when his gaze lingered on the introduction about Huo Yuhao, his pupils involuntarily widened.
At twelve years old, a Soul Master, with a Soul Power level of forty-nine, and Soul Rings of yellow, purple, purple, and black! Such a genius has actually emerged on the continent. Huo Yuhao's talent is truly terrifying and awe-inspiring.
At this moment, Ning Fengzhi had already begun a mental storm. Such a genius, even if he couldn't befriend him, he absolutely couldn't be his enemy. Fortunately, Huo Yuhao and his daughter were involved. As for Huo Yuhao getting along well with the two girls, that was fine.
After all, that powerful man didn't have three wives and four concubines. Ning Fengzhi himself had several wives. As for the lovers he had seduced when he was young, he couldn't even remember them all. In the past ten years or so, he had already acknowledged several illegitimate children.
However, Ning Fengzhi's only worry now is that recruiting Huo Yuhao to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will definitely not be an easy task. If Ning Fengzhi's guess is correct, then recruiting Huo Yuhao will be impossible.
Ning Fengzhi suspected that there was a greater than 90% chance that Huo Yuhao was a genius trained by the Spirit Hall. This was not a wild guess by Ning Fengzhi, but a conclusion he reached after rigorous deduction.
Ning Fengzhi admitted that even if the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School used all its resources, it would not be able to cultivate a genius like Huo Yuhao, while the faction Huo Yuhao belonged to could. This shows that the faction Huo Yuhao belonged to was far stronger than the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, which is one point.
Moreover, the faction to which Huo Yuhao belongs dares to release him alone without any concern for his safety outside. This shows that Huo Yuhao's faction is confident that it can protect him in front of all other forces in the world. Only the Spirit Hall has this kind of confidence. This is the second point.
Finally, Huo Yuhao's words, actions, and daily life all reveal the influence of the Spirit Hall. He protects ordinary soul masters and the Spirit Hall. When he heard Ma Hongjun insult the Spirit Hall, he immediately took action. Moreover, even though he knew that Dai Mubai was the Star Luo Prince, he showed no fear whatsoever. This is the most obvious point.
Ning Fengzhi believed that his deductive reasoning skills were among the best in the continent, so Huo Yuhao could only be a member of the Spirit Hall.
As for why Huo Yuhao would run away from Wuhun City to the small place of Shrek Academy, Ning Fengzhi didn't know either, after all, Shrek Academy was already quite magical.
An obscure academy built in a village gathers disciples of the Clear Sky Sect, the second prince of the Star Luo royal family, the second young lady of the Star Luo Zhu family, their own little princess, and the peerless genius of the Spirit Hall.
Ning Fengzhi has always believed in the art of destiny. After all, he has read extensively and is familiar with the legendary art of destiny. Ning Fengzhi deduced that Shrek Academy must have some kind of destiny that has attracted so many geniuses from top forces across different continents.
These geniuses are simply too dazzling. Tang San, the son of Haotian Douluo, is suspected to have twin martial souls. At the age of twelve, his soul power is level 39, which is already an extraordinary genius.
Huo Yuhao, 12 years old, soul power level 49, it's hard to say. Ning Fengzhi even suspected that Huo Yuhao might be Qian Daoliu's illegitimate son, and definitely has twin martial souls.
Tang San is alright, but Ning Fengzhi's biggest worry right now is Huo Yuhao.
Ning Fengzhi was originally observing the situation on the mainland, but now Huo Yuhao's appearance is forcing Ning Fengzhi to make a choice.
Because Huo Yuhao is simply incomprehensibly strong.
At 12 years old and at level 49, if we say that Huo Yuhao started cultivating at the age of 6 and had innate full soul power, it means that he increased his level by 39 in 6 years, which is an average of 8 levels per year.
Even after reaching the Soul King level, his cultivation speed will slow down, but Huo Yuhao will definitely become a Soul Douluo-level powerhouse after he turns 18, and a Title Douluo by the age of 20.
It's likely that in less than 20 years, the Spirit Hall will produce another peerless Douluo like Qian Daoliu.
Moreover, it is very likely that he is a peerless Douluo with twin martial souls.
The more Ning Fengzhi thought about it, the more horrified he felt.
The Spirit Hall has developed too fast in recent years. First, the newly promoted Title Douluo Shui Yuanhao and his wife joined the Spirit Hall in a high-profile manner.
Moreover, Dugu Bo, who was originally a guest elder of the Heavenly Dou Emperor, also joined the Spirit Hall.
According to Ning Fengzhi's deduction, the Spirit Hall has at least a dozen Title Douluos.
After all, just the people he knew included Chrysanthemum Pass, Ghostly Beauty, Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu, Dugu Bo, Shui Yuanhao, and Shui Runxi.
As for the hidden titled Douluo, there are only more.
Furthermore, Ning Fengzhi had heard that the Spirit Hall had also cultivated a Golden Generation, named Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan.
As for which genius Huo Yuhao was from the Spirit Hall, Ning Fengzhi didn't know this information, because any spies from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School who knew Huo Yuhao's identity were all killed.
Ning Fengzhi is genuinely unsure how to handle the situation between Huo Yuhao and Ning Rongrong.
To put it bluntly, the options are either to let Huo Yuhao and Ning Rongrong be together, and then Ning Fengzhi take his vast fortune and go to join the Spirit Hall.
However, this would render Ning Fengzhi's previous political arrangements within the Heaven Dou royal family obsolete, since joining the Spirit Hall would mean a complete break with the Heaven Dou royal family.
Ning Fengzhi's power and influence are largely hidden within the Heaven Dou Empire.
Even if one were to prepare to join the Spirit Hall, it would not be now. One should wait until all one's power and wealth had been withdrawn from the Heaven Dou Empire and then slowly moved towards Spirit City.
Another approach, however, seems to be... there isn't one.
With Huo Yuhao's talent, as long as he doesn't die, he will become the second, or even surpass, Qian Daoliu in the future.
At that time, the Spirit Hall will have three peerless Douluo: Bibi Dong, Qian Daoliu, and Huo Yuhao, and will have no less than ten titled Douluo-level experts under its command.
Given the Spirit Hall's ambitions, it would be impossible for them not to declare war on the two great empires.
As for eliminating Huo Yuhao midway, that's even more impossible. Not to mention who could eliminate Huo Yuhao, even if they could, the faction that eliminated Huo Yuhao would suffer retaliation from the Spirit Hall at all costs.
As you can see, the once number one sect in the world, the Clear Sky Sect, was crippled and forced to cower in the mountains, too afraid to come out, simply because it provoked the Spirit Hall.
Moreover, the Spirit Hall is currently at its zenith. If anyone were to kill Huo Yuhao at this critical juncture, they probably wouldn't even be able to leave a single earthworm in the sect alive.
As for sending his own sect's Sword Bone Douluo to assassinate Huo Yuhao, that would be impossible.
After all, Ning Fengzhi had already learned about the terror of the Peerless Douluo from Sword Douluo. If it were really their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School that assassinated Huo Yuhao, Qian Daoliu would probably come with his sword and slaughter the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School as well.
After all, Qian Daoliu was wary of Tang Chen, who was also a peerless Douluo, while his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School did not have a peerless Douluo to back him up.
Therefore, it seems that the only solution is to let Rongrong and Huo Yuhao be together, and then have the entire Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School go and join the Spirit Hall.
Moreover, joining the Spirit Hall is not necessarily a bad thing.
After all, if the Spirit Hall and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School were to join forces, who in the world could be their match?
Before Ning Fengzhi could even finish his thought, several Soul Saint experts stumbled into the hall, knelt on one knee, and tremblingly pulled out the latest secret report from their robes, placing it in Ning Fengzhi's hands.
"Reporting to the Sect Master, this is the latest news about the Little Princess. Please take a look!"
"Oh? What secret report? Let me take a look first."
Just as Ning Fengzhi was about to receive the secret report, Sword Douluo appeared out of nowhere and snatched it from Ning Fengzhi's hand with great interest.
However, after Sword Douluo saw the words on the secret report, he froze on the spot, and then the entire hall echoed with Sword Douluo's angry voice.
"Outrageous! This Huo Yuhao is utterly unreasonable!"
