Chapter 160.

Ning Rongrong's soul ring illuminated, and the Nine Treasure Star Cloud Pagoda in her hand radiated unparalleled brilliance.

"This... what is this?" Ning Fengzhi was dumbfounded, witnessing the tower adorned with nine floors, clouds and twinkling stars.

"Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda!" he exclaimed, shocked. The other two Title Douluos shared his amazement.

Having experienced the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda themselves, they were well aware of its strengths and weaknesses. However, the revelation that Rongrong had evolved it into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda meant she could reach the realm of a Titled Douluo.

Ning Fengzhi, limited to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda at level seventy-nine, couldn't progress further because his Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda only had seven floors.

"No, Fengzhi, look closely... There seems to be more than nine levels, and it's not a normal evolution into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda," Sword Douluo remarked solemnly.

The two Titled Douluos were certain that their observations were accurate. Despite his initial shock, Ning Fengzhi regained his composure and scrutinized the situation. It became evident that this was not a normal evolution into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda.

"What is this..." Ning Fengzhi gazed at the clouds and the ten stars shining within the pagoda. The trio exchanged puzzled glances.

"Could it be some kind of mutation?" they wondered aloud.

Ning Rongrong, seemingly relishing their astonishment, cheerfully explained, "Dad, it's not the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda anymore, it is now Nine Treasure Star Cloud Pagoda, with an even more special star power! My soul ability increase effect is now 20% more and most importantly, each level of growth increase has also doubled to 2%!"

Previously, her soul ability effects increased by 1% per level, but now it was a formidable 2%, a substantial and collective boost. Even with her mutation at level 31 after absorbing the herbs, by the time she reached level 91, the increase amounted to an astonishing 120%.

Ning Fengzhi was taken aback upon hearing this. While he understood a 20% increase, the doubling of soul ability effect was truly staggering.

"Power of stars? Rongrong, where did this come from?" Ning Fengzhi asked, his curiosity evident.

A hint of joy crossed Ning Rongrong's face as she excitedly shared, "It's Wang Feng. He and Tang San brought back mysterious herb called Weaving clouds and Stars. After consuming it, my soul power increased by seven levels, and then my martial soul underwent a mutation. He cultivated this herb meticulously himself..."

As she spoke, Ning Rongrong blushed slightly.

The revelation left the three in contemplative silence. Suddenly, Ning Fengzhi signaled Sword Douluo with a glance.

Sword Douluo nodded discreetly and approached Ning Rongrong, his soul power gently intertwining with hers.

"No issues..." Jian Douluo sighed in relief.

"You still doubted it!"

Ning Rongrong was momentarily taken aback, her heart suddenly aflame with fury. "Why? Do you still doubt that I'm not telling the truth? Even your own daughter is not spared from suspicion!"

She was seething, an emotion she rarely experienced. "My dear girl, we were just being cautious," Ning Fengzhi hastily apologized, recognizing the need to make amends. "The extraordinary nature of this revelation raised concerns about your well-being. Dad is sorry and we would appreciate hearing the details from you."

Ning Rongrong snorted, nodded slightly, and began recounting the details of the medicinal herbs brought by Wang Feng and Tang San. However, she refrained from divulging much about the other aspects.

Upon hearing the information, Ning Fengzhi mumbled, "Weaving Clouds and Stars... What kind of miraculous medicinal herb is that?"

"Wait a moment, Rongrong. You mentioned that he cultivated this herb?" Sword Douluo asked curiously. "Is Wang Feng the young man I met in Star Dou Great Forest?"

Ning Rongrong nodded in confirmation.

"That young man is truly remarkable," Sword Douluo remarked thoughtfully. "Fengzhi, do you realize the significance? His ability to cultivate such a magical herb... What does it imply?"

Ning Fengzhi nodded solemnly and responded in a profound tone.

"Rongrong, I'll accompany you to your academy tomorrow. I'm eager to meet the Tang San who crafted the hidden weapon and the young man behind this miraculous herb. It just so happens that since Uncle Sword last visit, I've developed some interest..."

"Okay, okay!" Ning Rongrong responded fearlessly, happily embracing Ning Fengzhi as she thought, 'Hehe, Wang Feng, even if you're not coming, my father is on his way to see you!'

Heaven Dou City, Shrek Academy.

Within the college's main campus, where a clear square was situated, where several figures swiftly moved. Blue silver grass entwined as a purple-gold glow flickered, accompanied by a pink silhouette leaping. Crimson flames ignited amidst the blue silver grass-covered landscape, creating fiery waves.

In mid-air, Ma Hongjun unfurled two flaming wings on his back and released a phoenix-shaped fire downward.

"Fatty, watch out! Brother Feng is targeting you!" Xiao Wu's voice echoed from the fiery forest below.

"I didn't see him! What about the others?" Ma Hongjun, perplexed, searched the flames below.

"Behind you!" Oscar, also airborne, exclaimed in surprise after consuming mushrooms.

Before Ma Hongjun could react, a powerful force struck him from behind, sending him crashing to the ground in flames.

Wang Feng landed, applauded, and observed Oscar. "I surrender..." Oscar quickly conceded.

Turning the Red Lotus in his palm, Wang Feng absorbed the flames, revealing Zhu Zhuqing, Tang San, Xiao Wu and the fallen Ma Hongjun. Although scarred, they were unharmed.

"Despite your Phoenix Firewire allowing brief aerial maneuvers, your flame control needs improvement fatty. High body temperature makes carrying others in flight challenging and uncomfortable," Wang Feng reminded them. "Remember the battle with the Emperor team six months ago? Yufeng effortlessly flew her team into the battlefield behind you."

Wang Feng helped each person up, emphasizing the importance of refining their own soul abilities.

"Wang Feng observed Zhu Zhuqing, noting that her increased offensive power lacked precision due to its overwhelming force. 

"Zhuqing, if you could control your power more precisely, your attack at the end could have effectively countered my offense instead of exerting unnecessary force at the beginning."

 "'Yeah." 

Zhu Zhuqing acknowledged her struggle with adapting to the increased power of her martial soul.

Addressing Tang San, Wang Feng said, "Xiao San, your attempt to trap Xiao Wu and Zhu Qing with blue silver grass resembled a double-headed meteor hammer move. While a clever idea, controlling two people proved challenging for you, and the desired effect didn't materialize. In the end, you wisely used the Eight Spider Lances to restrain me solo." Tang San smiled and nodded in agreement.

Wang Feng concluded, "'You're missing a few kypoints and the seven of you haven't fully optimized your strength yet. Let's continue training next time."

Shaking his head, Wang Feng reflected on the recent days when the Grandmaster tasked him with assisting in the team's training. Eager to assess their capabilities, he looked forward to further improvement in their coordination and individual skills.

They had indeed grown stronger after consuming immortal herbs. Despite the improvement, defeating Wang Feng still remains a challenge. The group's might made Wang Feng to consider to unlock the strength of the second tier to face them.

Wang Feng's entire body, bones, and blood have undergone intense transformation from the Red Lotus Karmic Fire, significantly enhancing his mental power perception. He's almost able to predict the attacks of several opponents very easily.

Tang San's Purple Demon Eye's third stage can also disturb the enemy's spirit, causing confusion, but it has minimal effect on Wang Feng. Red Lotus, having also tempered his body, made him impervious to spirit attacks too. Xiao Wu's charm, which once affected Wang Feng, now has no impact.

Xiao Wu approached Wang Feng, puzzled. "Brother Feng, you used to be affected by my charm. Why is it ineffective now?"

Wang Feng explained with a smile, "I've adapted. Such spiritual abilities are rare, but I've adapted to your charms."

Xiao Wu, though somewhat disbelieving, smiled. "I feel much stronger now and so does everyone else, but why doesn't we still last longer than before against you?"

Ma Hongjun, skeptical, added, "After eating the immortal herb, my evil fire is gone and I'm stronger than ever. But it doesn't mean if we become stronger, he will still be the same, won't he also get stronger too?"

Oscar approached, distributing grilled sausages to everyone.

Zhu Zhuqing continued her practice, harnessing the lingering medicinal power of the immortal herb within her. Ma Hongjun and Oscar were also dedicated to their training. Dai Mubai had headed to Sunset Forest, with Liu Erlong and others to acquire his fourth soul ring.

"With Brother Feng's strength, we can't lose in the upcoming Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament!" Xiao Wu exclaimed. 

"After eating the immortal grass, his power has skyrocketed. In half a year, with him leading us, the championship is ours."

Tang San, shaking his head with a smile, added, "The Grandmaster mentioned that Brother Feng won't participate, he has other responsibilities."

Surprised, Xiao Wu looked at Wang Feng, seeking confirmation. Wang Feng nodded, indicating his commitment elsewhere. He might participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Tournament contest under a different identity.

Just then, a student rushed over and called out to Tang San, "Tang San, Tai Long's grandfather, Tai Tan, is here to see you. Hurry up and meet him!"

Tang San and Xiao Wu were taken aback as they looked at the approaching student.

"Brother Feng, you really have a crow's mouth!" Xiao Wu said with irritation. Tang San couldn't help but find Feng'ge's ominous predictions amusing.

"Let's go and see," Wang Feng suggested, a glint of amusement in his eyes. "I might have some luck against Tai Nuo's strength. But if it was Tai Tan, I might lose."

As they walked, Tang San pondered, "I sense a familial inheritance of martial soul in that family. Tai Long, a level 37 Vigorous Orangutan, Tai Nuo, a level 58 Soul king with same martial soul, and his grandfather should be someone of at least level 70 Soul Saint with the same martial soul, right? If he's stronger than that it might be very troublesome."

Tang San's deductions were remarkably accurate, based on the strength of the son and father's martial soul.

"The dean and Teacher Liu are out hunting soul beasts with Boss Dai. Teacher Zhao Wuji is still at the academy," Xiao Wu considered, her expression somber. "If it's indeed a Soul Douluo... brother Feng, I don't care but you must handle it somehow."

Wang Feng chuckled awkwardly, "Xiao Wu, when did I give you the impression I can match up against a Soul Douluo?"
