Su Ming smiled, "Maybe Uncle Ning gave me so much because of you. I guess I need to make sure I quickly finish the items for your father."
Although he said this, it would still depend on when the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan could deliver the materials before he could start working.
At this moment, Tang San, who had been lying to the side, woke up. His first glance was at Su Ming, and a flash of hatred crossed his eyes before he quickly concealed it.
Tang San thought to himself, Su Ming, you've blocked my path to developing hidden weapons and cut off my financial source. You even injured me so severely. Without Ning Fengzhi's spirit ability to help me recover, I would have been bedridden for a long time. You've already found your path to death!
Su Ming, of course, noticed the look in Tang San's eyes, which clearly said, You've found your path to death!
However, Su Ming didn't care. He had already decided that in a few days, after making contact with the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy's team, he would tell Ning Fengzhi that he wanted to transfer to the Heaven Dou Imperial Academy.
This contact was mainly to meet Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling; the others weren't of much interest to him.
Dugu Yan was the most important, as meeting her would lead to meeting Dugu Bo! Su Ming had been thinking about those immortal herbs for a long time. If it weren't for his uncertainty about their exact location in the Sunset Forest and his fear of Dugu Bo's poison array, he would have gone to find them by now.
As for Ye Lingling, well, she should be quite pretty, but Su Ming was more interested in her Nine Hearts Begonia martial spirit, which had only one effect: healing!
What intrigued Su Ming most was why there couldn't be more than two Nine Hearts Begonia spirit masters alive at the same time. One had to die for another to appear. The inheritance conditions were extremely strict. Was this a curse of the martial spirit?
Su Ming, under everyone's watchful eyes, walked toward Tang San with a mysterious smile on his face. "Tang San, did you get cocky after obtaining the Zhuge Crossbow? Also, you just went all out on me, so there's no problem with me returning the favor, right? Or do you want revenge?"
Seeing Su Ming's smile, the others felt their breathing tighten. Is Su Ming a demon? they thought.
Dai Mubai and the others felt the temperature around them drop significantly at Su Ming's smile.
Tang San, who was facing Su Ming directly, felt it even more. It was like looking at a demon's smile! He sensed that if he provoked Su Ming again, things would end badly for him, yet he was unwilling to yield.
Why is Su Ming stronger than me? Why is he more powerful? Why is Xiao Wu his, and why is he the one collaborating with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan?
And Su Ming even knows how to make talismans! In my previous world, I had heard of sects like the Heavenly Masters who used similar charms. Su Ming's talismans must be similar to those used by Taoists. He's hidden so deeply and chose this moment to reveal himself! Su Ming must have planned this for a long time!
Oh, wait, I still have a chance. I overheard something at the hotel that could help! Tomorrow, when we head to Soto City, I'll find an opportunity to hint to Xiao Wu that Su Ming is secretly visiting shady places. That way, she'll think he's disgusting and hypocritical for saying he wouldn't associate with those kinds of women but secretly doing so!
Tang San could only force a very awkward smile, "Of course, I don't mind. After all, it's a competition, and both sides must give their all to showcase their abilities."
"And besides, because of our fight, I happened to break through to level 36!"
Su Ming raised an eyebrow in surprise. Well, isn't that something! Even after I beat Tang San so badly, it actually helped him level up. Did I just unlock his meridians by accident?
Whether that's the case or not, Tang San truly lives up to being the child of destiny. Even something like this works in his favor!
Having broken through to level 36, Tang San found some comfort. The pressure from their fight had unlocked one of his meridians, and now his strength had increased. He had finally surpassed Ning Rongrong in level.
What he didn't know, however, was that Ning Rongrong, having learned Su Ming's Lingbo Weibu (Wave Walking Steps), had also unlocked some of her meridians. Because of this, she had reached level 36 a few days earlier.
Moreover, she might soon break through to level 37, a fact that had surprised and delighted her. She had finally caught up to Zhu Zhuqing in terms of level!
At this moment, Grandmaster Yu Xiaogang approached Su Ming. He didn't want to interfere in the issues between Tang San and Su Ming, thinking that once Tang Hao found out, Su Ming would be in big trouble anyway.
Now that he knew Su Ming's Lingbo Weibu could potentially be learned by anyone, he couldn't hold back anymore—he had to find a way to get his hands on it!
Yu Xiaogang spoke in a gentle tone, "Su Ming, how about we discuss something?"
Su Ming responded calmly, "Master, you're asking about my Lingbo Weibu, aren't you?"
Seeing that Su Ming had guessed his intention, Yu Xiaogang replied directly, "Yes, I see that Rongrong was able to learn your Lingbo Weibu. Could you let everyone else learn it too? It would greatly enhance the team's overall strength, don't you think?"
Oscar's eyes sparkled like a cat that smelled fish, and inside he cheered, Well done, Master!
Ning Rongrong and the other girls, hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, felt disgusted. Su Ming was right—Yu Xiaogang really is shameless. How will Su Ming deal with this?
Su Ming retorted bluntly, "Master, why should I share a spirit ability that I painstakingly created? Look, Rongrong's father was willing to thank me with the Split Mind Control Technique for teaching her this ability. And now, with just one sentence, you expect me to give it away for free? You've got quite the nerve!"
Su Ming didn't care at all about giving Yu Xiaogang face. After all, he'd be leaving soon, and Xiao Wu and Rongrong would go with him. As for Zhuqing, they hadn't interacted much, but given her good relationship with Xiao Wu and Rongrong, there shouldn't be any issues.
Yu Xiaogang's face darkened, but he knew it wouldn't be that easy. He then tried to persuade Su Ming, "Su Ming, we're all classmates, and you've been through life and death together. Are you really unwilling to contribute one spirit ability to benefit the whole team?"
Even Flender couldn't bear to watch anymore. If that's your reasoning, Xiaogang, why don't you ask Tang San to share his Mysterious Heaven Technique? Or contribute your family's Dragon Transformation secret technique?
Oscar, Dai Mubai, and Ma Hongjun all looked at Su Ming with anticipation. For Oscar, the technique was nothing short of divine, while for Dai Mubai and Ma Hongjun, learning it would give them another powerful tool in battle. They couldn't help but be envious.
