Inside a palace of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan.
After answering the question in the live quiz, Ning Fengzhi sat confidently on a throne, gently stroking the jade cane in his hand with a satisfied smile on his face.
When the question for this round of the live quiz was revealed, Ning Fengzhi, like everyone else, was excited and eager about the reward. However, unlike others who needed to scour historical records for the answer, Ning Fengzhi happened to already know it.
The reason Ning Fengzhi knew the answer was directly related to the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul. Since this Martial Soul could only be cultivated to the Soul Sage level, and Ning Fengzhi had long since reached that level, he had sought every possible way to evolve the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda.
To find a way to evolve the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, Ning Fengzhi had read countless books—whether ancient or modern, he had studied them all. Among the numerous texts he had studied, one mentioned the inventor of the Sound Amplifying Soul Tool, and Ning Fengzhi had remembered it. He hadn't expected this knowledge to be so useful today.
Indeed, knowledge is power! Ning Fengzhi thought to himself, deeply moved.
After Ning Fengzhi provided his answer, many of the powerful figures across the Douluo Continent who believed they might have a chance to answer correctly felt an increasing sense of urgency and tension.
Many hoped Ning Fengzhi had answered incorrectly, as that would give them a chance to win the Martial Soul evolution reward.
However…
[System Notice: Ning Fengzhi's answer, "The inventor of the Sound Amplifying Soul Tool is Phanos," is correct!]
[Reward: One Martial Soul Evolution Opportunity, issued!]
After Ning Fengzhi submitted his answer, it didn't take long for a line of blood-red text to appear before everyone's eyes, accompanied by the cold voice echoing in their ears.
When it was confirmed that Ning Fengzhi had answered correctly, countless people across the Douluo Continent let out cries of despair. Why did Ning Fengzhi have to know the answer so quickly?! Did this guy really go out of his way to collect and study ancient historical books? Doesn't he have anything better to do?
Meanwhile, after the system announced that the reward had been issued, Ning Fengzhi heard the system's cold voice again in his mind.
"Ding! The Martial Soul Evolution Opportunity has been issued. Would you like to use it now?"
"Of course!" Ning Fengzhi took a deep breath, struggling to contain his excitement, and immediately responded.
"Many people want to witness your Martial Soul's evolution. The conditions for enabling Shared Live Streaming have been met. Would you like to enable it?"
Hearing the cold voice in his mind again, Ning Fengzhi was momentarily taken aback.
"Shared Live Streaming?" Ning Fengzhi murmured, puzzled.
The system quickly explained in its cold, mechanical voice.
"Shared Live Streaming allows you to broadcast what's happening around you to everyone else. This feature can be turned off at any time..."
"In that case, let's enable it!" Ning Fengzhi decided after a brief moment of thought.
After all, everyone already knew he had received the reward for the Martial Soul Evolution. Since there was no point in hiding it, he might as well use this opportunity to let everyone witness the evolution of his Martial Soul. This could also serve as a chance to bolster the prestige of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan.
"Ding! Shared Live Streaming has been enabled!"
As the system's cold voice echoed, a new, smaller live stream window appeared in the original live room, gradually expanding until it filled everyone's screen.
The broadcast revealed a lavish, ornate hall where four individuals were seated.
One was a dignified, elegant middle-aged man with a gentle smile. Another was a stern-looking, silver-haired man dressed in a blue robe. The third was a brooding man clad in black armor. The last was a cute little girl with an air of nobility.
As the Shared Live Stream began, Ning Fengzhi, dressed in a silver brocade robe and holding a jade cane, stood up slowly in the hall and smiled at the screen in front of him.
"Everyone, welcome to witness the evolution of my Martial Soul!" Ning Fengzhi's words echoed through the virtual screen.
As his message appeared on the screen, everyone in the live room focused their attention. But before anyone could react, Ning Fengzhi closed his eyes and mentally commanded the evolution to begin.
In an instant, Ning Fengzhi felt a mysterious energy surge into his body, and his entire form began to emit a dazzling nine-colored light.
Within the radiant glow, a small, crystal-like seven-layered tower appeared behind Ning Fengzhi. At the same time, seven soul rings—two yellow, two purple, and three black—rose from beneath him, circling around his body.
The evolution is starting!
Seeing the scene in the live stream, everyone recognized the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda Martial Soul behind Ning Fengzhi. Despite their recognition, they were still filled with a mix of disbelief and anticipation.
Under the intense glow of the nine-colored light, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda behind Ning Fengzhi began to change rapidly. The top of the tower grew, adding an eighth and then a ninth layer.
In less than ten seconds, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda had transformed into a Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, complete with nine layers.
"Congratulations, Clan Master!"
Seeing the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda evolve into nine layers, Bone Douluo Gu Rong couldn't contain his excitement. He stood up and clasped his hands in congratulations to Ning Fengzhi.
Beside him, Sword Douluo Chen Xin also stood up, his usually cold face showing genuine happiness as he congratulated Ning Fengzhi.
The young girl, Ning Rongrong, also jumped for joy, excitedly celebrating her father's success.
The Martial Soul really evolved!
Although no one doubted the power of the live room after seeing Hu Yanzhen and others punished in the previous quiz, witnessing Ning Fengzhi's Martial Soul evolve firsthand still made many hearts race with excitement.
"For generations, our Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan has been burdened by the limitations of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, unable to progress beyond the Soul Sage level. Only by evolving our Martial Soul can we reach the heights of Soul Douluo and Title Douluo. We've always searched for a way to evolve the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, and today, that dream has finally come true through me!"
After the evolution, Ning Fengzhi withdrew the newly evolved Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda into his hand, gazing at it with deep emotion.
"Everyone, the Shared Live Stream ends here."
"On behalf of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan, I extend an invitation to all talented young individuals across the continent. Our doors are always open to you…"
As the system prepared to close the Shared Live Stream, Ning Fengzhi took the opportunity to broadcast his recruitment message with a smile.
This Ning Fengzhi is so sly!
Seeing Ning Fengzhi use the live stream to recruit disciples for the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan, many couldn't help but curse him inwardly.
But despite their grumbling, deep down, everyone was envious. Ning Fengzhi, as the clan master of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan, already held a significant influence in the soul master world. Previously, the clan's only drawback was the limitation of their Martial Soul. But now, with that limitation gone, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan's position among support-type soul masters would be even more unshakable.
After Ning Fengzhi's "advertisement," the clan would undoubtedly attract even more young soul masters in the future. How enviable!
With Ning Fengzhi's final words, the Shared Live Stream ended.
The image of the Sound Amplifying Soul Tool's invention scene reappeared in front of everyone.
Finally, a line of blood-red text appeared before everyone's eyes, accompanied by the cold voice of the system.
[Ding! The current live quiz has ended. The live room will close temporarily in three minutes. You may exit at your discretion.]
[The next live quiz will take place in fifteen days!]
