Chapter 350: Letter of Submission
🕑 Added 2025-03-27 17:57:11 +0000 UTCAfter Yang Podi left the conference room, the others gradually departed as well. After all, with Yang Podi making the final decisions and providing a safety net, what was there to worry about?
As for Flender and Others, the two had already joined Tianxing Academy and now had no way to retreat—even if they wished to help Yu Xiaogang and Taitan, they lacked the strength to do so.
When Ning Fengzhi left the conference room with Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, his expression became unusually serious.
After pondering for a while, Ning Fengzhi suddenly spoke, "Uncle Sword, Uncle Bone, now is about the time for us to take action."
Sword Douluo looked a bit puzzled, "Fengzhi, isn't it Yang Podi who is supposed to decide how to handle things from now on? He hasn't said that he intends to do anything."
Ning Fengzhi shook his head, "Uncle Sword, it isn't that simple. Yang Podi's plan to target Taitan and Bai He will likely draw the opposition of Yang Wudi and Niu Gao. After all, one is his grandfather and the other his maternal grandfather—we can't completely disregard their feelings."
The Bone Douluo then chimed in, "Fengzhi, isn't it a bit premature to take such action?"
Unable to hold back a sigh, Ning Fengzhi continued, "Both Yang Wudi and Niu Gao are men of deep sentiment. Although their strength is formidable, they have been blinded by past affections and failed to notice the danger lurking behind."
He added, "This time, the fact that Yu Xiaogang, Taitan, and Bai He have come to Heavenly Academy is clearly driven by malicious intent—they want to use Heavenly Academy as a shield against the Spirit Empire. Judging by their appearance, they even have some backing. This is precisely when we must strike."
Sword Douluo still seemed confused, "Strike? Why should we be the ones to act? And what exactly are we supposed to do?"
Ning Fengzhi's face turned a bit grim as he replied, "We must kill—eliminate anyone who poses a hidden threat to Heavenly Academy. These three have already seriously affected the future development of the academy; they must be wiped out."
He then said, "Uncle Sword, Uncle Bone, do you remember what Yang Podi said when he handed over the Soul Tool Research Academy to us? We three have always been outsiders to Heavenly Academy, having contributed nothing significant to the school from start to finish. Now is the time for us to show our true stance."
At that, the Bone Douluo's expression grew somber as he asked, "Fengzhi, must we really take action? Are we going to wipe out all three of Yu Xiaogang and his companions?"
Ning Fengzhi shook his head, "Yang Podi probably anticipated today's situation already. When we were leaving earlier, he gave me a glance—that must have been his hint."
He continued, "Yu Xiaogang cannot die for now; he has a certain connection with Bibi Dong. If we rashly kill him, it will surely attract the enmity of the Spirit Empire and cause unnecessary trouble. But Taitan and Bai He must die, and it is essential that we are the ones to act."
Only then did the Bone Douluo nod, "Fengzhi, leave this matter to me. I will silently eliminate Taitan and Bai He. As for the rest, do we still need to handle them? The Strength Clan and the Speed Clan likely still have many members."
After a moment of contemplation, Ning Fengzhi replied, "We need not concern ourselves with the others—only Taitan and Bai He. To be absolutely sure, the three of us must act together."
Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo wanted to say something more, but Ning Fengzhi was resolute: "This time, the three of us must strike simultaneously. This will serve as our token of loyalty as we take charge of the Soul Tool Research Academy."
At that, both Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo couldn't help but nod.
After being thrown out of Heavenly Academy, Yu Xiaogang, Taitan, and Bai He tumbled on the ground, coughing up a significant amount of blood, looking utterly miserable.
But considering the strength Yang Podi had just displayed, he was probably far stronger than Tang San now. The three recalled their own scheming and felt a chill of fear—if anyone else had dared to plot against such a peerless powerhouse, they would have already been slaughtered.
After taking some healing pills and tidying up their clothes, the three swiftly left Heavenly Academy.
They traveled over a hundred kilometers, finally putting some distance between themselves and Heavenly Academy. Only then did they breathe a sigh of relief, as if they had barely survived and truly escaped the enemy's lair.
However, at that very moment, an overwhelmingly powerful force suddenly appeared out of thin air. In an instant, Yu Xiaogang was knocked unconscious, while Taitan and Bai He found themselves under immense pressure.
The two hurriedly used their soul power to resist the force, but before they could react, three figures had already appeared in front of them, blocking their path—it was none other than Ning Fengzhi, Sword Douluo, and Bone Douluo.
Taitan's expression darkened. "Sect Master Ning, long time no see. I never expected that the dignified master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect and his two guardian Douluos would willingly act as lapdogs for Heavenly Academy."
Ning Fengzhi remained unfazed by Titan's harsh words; instead, he appeared calm and unbothered. "Taitan Clan Chief, you flatter us. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect has long ceased to exist, and the three of us are now merely ordinary teachers at Heavenly Academy. Since you plotted against Heavenly Academy, you naturally have to pay the price."
He continued, "As for the matter of being 'lapdogs,' our academy treats everyone as equals, and our status here is quite good—it's nothing like what you described."
"But your Strength Clan and Speed Clan—after being abandoned by the Clear Sky Sect, you shamelessly crawled back to them, disregarding your past hatred. How is that any different from servitude?"
"Now, after barely recovering some of your strength, you've ended up in this predicament. This is simply the retribution you two lackeys deserve."
Taitan and Bai He were instantly enraged, their eyes burning with fury as they glared at Ning Fengzhi.
However, Ning Fengzhi remained indifferent to their expressions. Having weathered countless storms, he considered this nothing more than a minor encounter.
In the blink of an eye, Sword Douluo, Bone Douluo, and Ning Fengzhi all summoned their martial souls and soul rings, unleashing an immense pressure on Taitan and Bai He.
Realizing that there was no room for negotiation today, Titan and Bai He exchanged a glance. Taitan immediately stepped forward, unleashing his full power and activating his eighth soul skill.
Meanwhile, Bai He turned and fled. With his unmatched speed, even Ning Fengzhi and the others might not be able to catch him. If he could reach Tang San and seek reinforcements, they might still have a sliver of hope.
But Ning Fengzhi and the others had clearly anticipated this. Bone Douluo's figure flickered, and a black gate appeared in front of him. Stepping through, he instantly intercepted Bai He's escape route.
At the same time, Sword Douluo gripped the Seven Killing Sword and launched a direct assault on Taitan, clearly aiming to take him down in a single strike.
What made Taitan even more despairing was that Ning Fengzhi, the continent's number one support-type soul master, was pouring his full strength into boosting both Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo, clearly intending to end the battle as quickly as possible.
