Chapter 279: Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda

...

In the hall, Ning Fengzhi and Ning Rongrong sat on the same sofa, it had been a long time since they last saw each other, there were naturally many things to talk about between father and daughter. On the other hand, Zeng Yi sat on the sofa opposite them, sipping tea with a comfortable expression.

As for Chen Xin and Gu Rong, they sat on the side, expressionless and vacant, seemingly still unable to recover from the stimulation of Ning Rongrong's words just now.

"Rongrong, how is your cultivation in the Academy? Have you neglected your cultivation because of indulgence?" Ning Fengzhi began to care about his daughter's cultivation. Although he had investigated the strength of Shrek Academy's faculty and found no problems, if his daughter's Spirit power remained stagnant, he would have to make her drop out of school and supervise her practice in the sect. He couldn't let his daughter's exceptional talent go to waste.

To Ning Fengzhi, he had never really cared about any Spirit Master Academy. Sending his daughter to Shrek Academy was also to temper her spoiled nature and let her experience some hardships.

If we were to consider the cultivation environment and the strength of the teachers, could a broken Academy compare to his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan?

"Hmph~ Dad, why don't you guess what level Rongrong's Spirit power is now?" Being asked about her Spirit power, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but become spirited. A trace of pride flashed in her eyes as she held Xiao Ju and spoke mysteriously.

Seeing his daughter's mischievous appearance, Ning Fengzhi smiled and said "Then let daddy take a guess. When you left the sect, your Spirit power was at the twenty-seventh rank. It has been a year since then, so you should have reached the twenty-ninth rank, right?"

Half a year ago, Ning Rongrong had also returned to the sect once, but because of the urgent matter with Zeng Yi, Ning Fengzhi did not inquire about her cultivation progress at that time.

Moreover, based on his investigation of Shrek Academy, there were no teaching facilities at that time. It relied solely on two Titled Douluo to hold the fort. In such an environment, for his daughter to cultivate to the twenty-ninth rank, it was a miracle. Ning Fengzhi still believed that it was because of his daughter's exceptional talent and her diligent cultivation.

If Ning Rongrong cultivated in the sect, after a year's time, Ning Fengzhi could guarantee that she would definitely reach rank thirty or above and become a Spirit Elder.

But Ning Rongrong shook her head and said "No!"

"Then is it at the 28th rank?" Ning Fengzhi tried again.

But Ning Rongrong still shook her head.

Her response made Ning Fengzhi feel a chill in his heart. It wasn't twenty-nine, nor twenty-eight. Could it be that she was still at twenty-seven? That would mean wasting a year of cultivation time. What did the teachers at Shrek Academy eat? Thinking of this, a surge of anger rose within Ning Fengzhi.

"Is your Spirit power still stagnant? What's going on? Did I send you out to have fun instead of cultivating?" Ning Fengzhi's expression became serious. He slammed his hand on the table and looked at his daughter sternly, questioning her in a harsh tone.

This scene made Zeng Yi start to suppress his laughter. This was really his dear father, full of mistrust towards his own daughter.

Ning Rongrong looked at her inexplicably angry father and felt a little puzzled, unable to understand what was going on.

"Dad! Can't you be a little bolder in your thinking? You've been guessing downwards all this time. Do you really think your daughter's talent is so bad? If I hadn't spoken up, would you still think my Spirit power had regressed to the twenty-sixth rank?" Ning Rongrong complained with a hint of anger.

"Are you saying that your Spirit power is already above the thirtieth rank? Have you broken through to become a Spirit Elder?" After listening to his daughter, Ning Fengzhi pondered for a moment and immediately grasped the meaning. He asked in astonishment.

"Rongrong, you really became a Spirit Elder?" Chen Xin and Gu Rong were also surprised and leaned in to ask.

Ning Rongrong proudly lifted the corner of her mouth and said "Of course, I not only broke through to become a Spirit Elder, but my Spirit power is also at the Rank 37. How about that? Are you surprised?"

"Rank 37?"

Ning Fengzhi, Chen Xin, and Gu Rong couldn't help but gasp, their minds were shocked by Ning Rongrong's words. They widened their eyes, looking at Ning Rongrong in astonishment.

"That's right! It's indeed the Rank 37!" Ning Rongrong confirmed her Spirit power once again.

Now, they didn't know what to say. Ning Rongrong left the sect at the twenty-seventh rank, and now she was at the Rank 37. In one year, her Spirit power had increased by ten ranks. This was beyond imagination. Even with Ning Rongrong's innate ninth-grade Spirit power, even with the abundant resources provided by the sect, it was impossible to increase ten ranks of Spirit power in a year.

"Xiao Yi, is what Rongrong said true?" Chen Xin, still somewhat skeptical, asked his disciple. Since both of them were in the same Academy, they should be very familiar with each other's Spirit power levels.

Zeng Yi nodded and said "She is telling the truth, it's true."

After hearing Zeng Yi's confirmation, the three finally believed that Ning Rongrong's Spirit power was indeed at the Rank 37. However, their minds were still dazed. In one year, she had risen from twenty-seven to thirty-seven, a ten-rank increase in Spirit power. This was simply abnormal! Even Ning Rongrong's innate Spirit power at the ninth grade, coupled with the abundant resources in the sect, it was still impossible to increase ten ranks of Spirit power in one year.

"Xiao Yi, did you also consume the Immortal Herb?" Ning Fengzhi asked.

Ning Rongrong and Zeng Yi were both from Shrek Academy. If Ning Rongrong's Spirit power had such a huge increase, their relationship with the Immortal Herb was definitely related.

But before Zeng Yi could speak, Ning Rongrong spoke first "He also acquired the Immortal Herb, but he didn't use it. He relied on his own diligent cultivation to reach this level."

After hearing his daughter's words, Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but be shocked. Seven ranks increase in Spirit power within a year, achieved through his own cultivation. He really couldn't imagine Zeng Yi's potential in the future. Where was his limit?

The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan had truly struck gold!

"By the way, Dad, there's something else I want to tell you." Ning Rongrong said, releasing her Martial Spirit.

A colorful radiance shone in her fair hand, and an exquisite crystal pagoda appeared, floating in Ning Rongrong's palm. It slowly rotated, and the pagoda had nine floors, each emitting a different colored brilliance, dazzling and colorful.

"Nine-colored radiance, nine-tiered pagoda!"

Seeing the transformation of Ning Rongrong's Martial Spirit, Ning Fengzhi exclaimed in excitement, his face becoming extremely excited.
