Chapter 52: The Strongest Saint

Chapter 52: The Strongest Saint

After listening to Chen Xin's analysis, Ning Fengzhi nodded in agreement. "Uncle Jian, your views align with mine. I just didn't expect a sect that has been hidden for thousands of years to have such terrifying strength. This continent truly is full of hidden dragons and crouching tigers!"

Chen Xin nodded. "Not to mention those two powerful Titled Douluo, just look at that young master Xiao Yu who has sparked conflicts among the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, and the Nine Star Palace. At thirteen or fourteen years old, he has already reached the level of a Soul Ancestor, with a millennium second ring and a ten-thousand-year fourth ring. I'm almost certain that his first and third soul rings were also absorbed beyond their normal levels. If he doesn't die young, he will undoubtedly become as fearsome as the two mountains of the soul master world back in the day!"

"Indeed!"

Ning Fengzhi said with envy, "It's a pity such a genius wasn't born in our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan!"

"Fengzhi, you're too pessimistic!"

Seeing this, Chen Xin comforted Ning Fengzhi, "Our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan also has Rongrong, a support-type soul master with innate level nine soul power. Such a talent is rarely seen in a century. With her potential, she might one day break the shackles of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda and become the first Titled Douluo of our clan!"

"Sigh, I hope so!"

Ning Fengzhi sighed, thinking of his exceptionally gifted yet mischievous daughter, and suddenly put on a stern face. "Uncle Jian, starting today, Rongrong's daily training will be extended by two hours. You and Uncle Bone are not allowed to intervene!"

The butterfly effect triggered by Xiao Yu ultimately affected Ning Rongrong, whom he had never met.

However, Xiao Yu was completely unaware of this. At this moment, he was busy settling the system's rewards:

By intercepting the opportunities of the Shrek Seven Monsters at the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well, he obtained a top-tier gold-level summon card.

By recruiting Dugu Bo into the sect, he obtained a red-level summon card.

By enlisting Yang Wudi and the Braking Clan, he received another black-level summon card.

The addition of Ye Renxin and the Nine Heart Begonia also earned Xiao Yu a black-level summon card.

Completing the task of absorbing the ten-thousand-year fourth soul ring yielded another red-level summon card.

Additionally, through various achievements such as defeating experts from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, expanding the sect's influence, growing the soul tool business, and giving pointers to Feng Xiaotian, Xiao Yu had amassed one gold-level summon card, three red-level summon cards, and five black-level summon cards.

As for the remaining purple and yellow-level cards, Xiao Yu only considered them as fragments to synthesize black-level summon cards.

After the recent confrontation with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan and the Heaven Dou Imperial Family, the Nine Star Palace had truly stepped onto the stage of the Douluo Continent.

From now on, all major powers would be closely watching the Nine Star Palace. Therefore, Xiao Yu immediately used all the summon cards above black level to add more strength to the sect.

Level 99!

The man reputed to be the strongest Saint!

For a moment, Xiao Yu felt as if he had been blessed by the god of luck to be able to draw Saga.

With a Level 99 Ultimate Douluo standing guard, Xiao Yu suddenly felt a surge of immense pride. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect—before an Ultimate Douluo, they were nothing.

Even the Spirit Hall, with its Ultimate Douluo, was no longer a threat. Xiao Yu's only worry was that they might leverage their high status in the soul master world and use sheer numbers to deplete the hard-earned resources of his sect.

In terms of top-tier combat power, Xiao Yu believed that Qian Daoliu, who relied on the power of the Angel God to reach Level 99, could not possibly be a match for Saga.

Of course, the premise was that the battlefield could not be the Angel Shrine. There, Qian Daoliu could maximize the Angel God's power, reaching a demigod state, making it uncertain if Saga could prevail.

"Young Master, the Crown Prince of the Heaven Dou Empire, Xue Qinghe, and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Sect Master, Ning Fengzhi, and Sword Douluo Chen Xin are here to visit!"

At this moment, Miro's voice sounded from outside. Xiao Yu immediately closed the system page and walked out of his room. "Let's go meet them!"

Xue Qinghe and Ning Fengzhi's intentions were clear even without thinking: first, to ransom back the Contra-level captives, and second, the sheer display of Nine Star Palace's power had undoubtedly shocked them. Ning Fengzhi was likely trying to align the Nine Star Palace with his own plans to resist the Spirit Hall's dominance.

As for Xue Qinghe, or rather, Qian Renxue, was likely here to assess Nine Star Palace's overall strength and gauge whether it posed a threat to the Spirit Hall's ambitions of unifying the continent. Previously, Xiao Yu had been concerned about Qian Renxue summoning her grandfather, but now, he feared nothing.

Unless Qian Daoliu brought all six of the Golden Crocodile Elders, there was little they could do to threaten Xiao Yu.

But was that even possible?

Certainly not. Qian Daoliu had to guard against the mentally unstable Bibi Dong. If anything happened to them, the control of the Spirit Hall would undoubtedly fall entirely into Bibi Dong's hands.

In Qian Daoliu's mind, Bibi Dong, his son's murderer, his de facto daughter-in-law, and his disciple by proxy, was only a temporary Pope. Eventually, the power of the Spirit Hall was meant to return to his family's lineage, specifically to Qian Renxue. Thus, he had to preserve a power within the Spirit Hall strong enough to deter Bibi Dong.
