This is no longer a sweet little cotton-padded jacket, it has clearly turned into a treacherous battle armor!
Jiang Yunzhou secretly envied her: It has to be said, girls who know how to act cute are lucky.
Of course, women who can sprinkle water have a better life.
Not far away, Zhu Zhuqing and Xiao Wu peeked out and looked at each other.
I was thinking to myself: Is this even possible?
Sometimes they really admire Ning Rongrong for her courage to be straightforward and never hide her thoughts.
One of them has a cold personality and is afraid of ruining her public image.
One was slightly insecure and afraid of being disliked; neither of them dared to act like Ning Rongrong.
If Jiang Yunzhou hadn't always treated them like children, Ning Rongrong probably wouldn't have just been talking...
After the three girls were sent away, Ning Fengzhi regained his serious expression and said:
"Dean Jiang, you should know that the registration for the Continental Elite Soul Master Competition is about to begin, right?"
Jiang Yunzhou nodded: "Of course, I set up the academy specifically for this competition."
"Good to know. You'd better hurry! Registration for the preliminary rounds will begin in about six months." Ning Fengzhi's tone became more serious.
"I see that your team is not yet fully formed, and I know that you have your own standards for accepting apprentices. Dean Jiang, you should pay attention to the timing and not miss the opportunity."
Ning Fengzhi's mention of this really reminded him.
He hadn't paid attention to this matter and didn't expect the registration period to be approaching. Fortunately, Ning Fengzhi reminded him in time.
He checked the timeline and realized that the competition would start in about a year and a half.
Thinking about all this, he suddenly missed Tangshan. Wherever this guy appeared, he could remind him what time it was.
Life is so comfortable that I always forget this and that!
He knew Ning Fengzhi was worried that he wouldn't be able to put together a team, and that he wouldn't even be able to register anyone.
However, he felt there shouldn't be any problem.
His criteria for accepting apprentices require a minimum qualification rating of S, and the advancement pill can further improve that rating.
There aren't many candidates right now.
Huo Wu, Shui Bing'er, Ye Lingling, and Dugu Yan are all qualified, and they can be further improved upon at that time.
Those who do not meet the standards, or male students, can also be accepted as disciples of the Top Scholar Academy, to earn some extra income for daily expenses.
They fully meet his standards for accepting apprentices, but it would require poaching them from his network, and he couldn't force them.
There's really nothing to worry about. With three apprentices as the main force, we can easily crush all the teams with just a few dogs.
"Thank you for the reminder, Sect Leader Ning. I will make the arrangements as soon as possible."
"Speaking of which, I haven't thanked Sect Master Ning for helping me get the academy's qualifications sorted out yet. If it weren't for you, my Supreme Academy would still be a 'three-no product' (no name, no address, no license)."
Indeed, without Ning Fengzhi's intervention, it would be a stretch to call these three students a tutoring class.
Given his current situation, he is simply unable to complete the registration, let alone sign up for the competition.
Ning Fengzhi smiled and said, "Why are you being so polite between us? This little favor is nothing compared to what you did for Rongrong."
As he was about to start reminiscing again, Jiang Yunzhou quickly interrupted, "Sect Leader Ning, it would be too formal to say anything more."
Ning Fengzhi smiled knowingly, knowing that this favor had been firmly established.
"Alright, then I won't say any more. I'm really looking forward to Supreme Academy's performance, and even more so to you winning the championship."
"This preliminary round will be held in the Tiandou City district. I will prepare a place for teachers and students to rest, so please don't have to find a place to stay on your own!"
Jiang Yunzhou didn't refuse and said with a smile, "Then thank you very much for the arrangements, Sect Leader Ning."
"Hey, why are you being so polite with me?" Ning Fengzhi waved his hand, his tone casual yet sincere.
Jiang Yunzhou thought for a moment and decided to say something: "Since Sect Leader Ning has gone to such lengths, I can't just take advantage of him."
"Actually, I might have a way to solve the limitation of Sect Master Ning's martial soul, so that you won't be stuck before the Soul Fighting Loli."
"However, I need to get things settled here first..."
Ning Fengzhi jumped up from his seat. What had he just heard?
If I heard correctly, it's about solving his martial soul problem?
Could he also have the chance to evolve his martial soul, just like his daughter?
His voice trembled slightly: "Dean Jiang, is this true? If so, I, Ning, am willing to pay any price!"
He excitedly grabbed Jiang Yunzhou's hand, his eyes looking at him as if he were looking at his savior.
Jiang Yunzhou was startled by him. Why was he so agitated after just one sentence?
"How could I joke about something like this?"
Ning Fengzhi took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, but he couldn't hide the excitement in his eyes: "It was Ning who lost his composure, Dean Jiang, please don't be offended."
Jiang Yunzhou laughed heartily: "I understand, I understand."
The two smiled at each other, and their relationship unconsciously grew closer.
Ning Fengzhi couldn't help but think: No wonder Rongrong keeps calling me "teacher"...
Anyone would be confused in this situation.
He now sees Jiang Yunzhou as someone who shines with an aura, and his goodwill towards him is off the charts.
He even secretly thought: it would be quite nice if Jiang Yunzhou could be his son-in-law.
Of course, he dared not say this aloud; he could only silently observe and let things take their course.
At most, they would quietly prepare a generous dowry for their daughter.
Jiang Yunzhou knew in his heart that Ning Fengzhi was thorough and practical, providing both money and effort without any empty promises. This was a friend worth having.
Moreover, he was well aware of how deep Ning Fengzhi's obsession with his own martial soul was.
He simply couldn't refuse this gift.
The two chatted about everyday things for a while before Ning Fengzhi took his leave.
Another day has passed.
As night deepened, a gentle breeze stirred.
The four of them sat down together again; it seemed another meeting was about to begin.
Jiang Yunzhou cut straight to the point: "Now that the new academy is completed, it can't be left idle. I'm going to give you a task now."
The three women all looked at him. Zhu Zhuqing felt a tightness in her chest. Was he going to make her go and poach people again?
Ning Rongrong asked directly, "Teacher, what kind of task is it?"
Jiang Yunzhou didn't keep them in suspense.
"I plan to set up a fighting arena in front of the academy."
"You, as the defenders of the title, will welcome all challengers."
The three girls were somewhat taken aback upon hearing this. What was their teacher up to now?
Zhu Zhuqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief, just in case she didn't try to steal someone else's boyfriend.
For Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing, being able to participate in more battles is not a bad thing; it's more acceptable than becoming a pimp.
Unlike Ning Rongrong, the two of them didn't need to focus solely on their own defense.
We need to hone our skills and accumulate experience in responding to challenges through real-world combat.
Xiao Wu's eyes lit up too: "Is it going to be a fight? Then I can..."
Chapter 74 Wet Girl, We Promised to Be Born on the Same Day, Month, and Year
After hearing this, Ning Rongrong pouted and raised her hand again to ask, "Teacher, have you noticed that I lack offensive capabilities? Just defending is so boring..."
Jiang Yunzhou had considered this before. Since the defense was not a problem, it would be good to add some offensive methods.
He raised an eyebrow and smiled, saying, "The fact that you can say such things shows that you still want to improve. I happen to have a martial art that is quite suitable for you."
Ning Rongrong's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she casually mentioned it, not expecting such an unexpected gain.
She's long been dissatisfied with just being a stationary Soul Master, okay?
Look at Zhu Qing and Xiao Wu, how cool and stylish they are when they fight! She's incredibly envious.
"Teacher, what kind of martial art is this? Please teach me..."
Jiang Yunzhou pointed his fingers like a sword at her forehead and said with a smile, "This martial art is called: Six Meridian Divine Sword."
Ning Rongrong felt slightly intimidated upon hearing this; why did this name sound so arrogant?
She grabbed the hand that was tapping her forehead and asked excitedly, "Teacher, now that I've learned the Six Meridians Divine Sword, can I wield it on you?"
Jiang Yunzhou didn't understand any other meaning and simply said, "Of course, I can spar with you sometime."
Zhu Zhuqing, a fifth-grade student, always felt that her teacher was being harassed, but she had no evidence.
Ning Rongrong smiled slyly and said, "Teacher, you said it yourself. Don't get splashed on your face later, or you won't be happy."
As if she had planned it all along, she moved with incredible speed, leaping onto Jiang Yunzhou and hugging him tightly.
Xiao Wu and Zhu Zhuqing felt jealous again.
Zhu Zhuqing secretly grumbled to herself: "Wet girl, we promised to be born on the same day, in the same month, in the same year..."
Xiao Wu said the same thing: Sister Shi, dare to squeeze a little harder? If you squeeze a little harder, it will burst.
Jiang Yunzhou finally managed to pry open this 'octopus'.
He pointed at Ning Rongrong and said, "You better behave yourself..."
He pressed her into a seat and taught her the Six Meridians Divine Sword.
Then Ning Rongrong was both surprised and delighted: "Teacher~~ Waaah~ Is it true that swordsmanship can be done without a sword? You can just use your fingers?"
"But isn't this just like standing still and striking?"
