Ning Rongrong quickly began to introduce the members of the Shrek Group. She first pointed to Dai Mubai and said, "This is Dai Mubai. Even though he's only seventeen, he is already a Level 44 Battle Spirit Ancestor. He is an attack system specialist and is the second strongest among us, right after Huo Feng".
Despite Ning Fengzhi's high status, Dai Mubai remained calm. He looked the Sect Master in the eye, shook his head, and admitted, "Compared to Huo Feng, I still have a long way to go".
"Seventeen years old and Level 44?" Ning Fengzhi mused, unable to hide his admiration. "You are indeed a little freak. I watched your battle just now, and your Spirit and Spirit Abilities are outstanding. To achieve this much at seventeen is truly astonishing. Would you be interested in visiting the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School after the competition?".
The rest of the team, aside from Huo Feng, felt a sting of envy at the invitation. To their surprise, Dai Mubai declined politely. "Uncle Ning, I appreciate the kindness. I'll visit if I have the chance, but I can't join right now".
Ning Fengzhi studied Dai Mubai's eyes and seemed to realize something. "Evil Eyes White Tiger. I see," he said thoughtfully. He recognized the boy's background but was wise enough not to reveal it. Instead, he smiled and added, "Since you're Rongrong's friend, if you ever need help from the sect, just come find me".
Next, Ning Rongrong introduced Oscar. "This is Oscar. He's sixteen and a Level 41 food system Tool Spirit Ancestor. His Spirit is the Sausage".
Ning Fengzhi was secretly impressed. As a support system Spirit Master himself, he had a soft spot for talented support types. "A food system specialist? How old are you?".
Oscar tried to hide his nerves and replied respectfully, "I'm sixteen, sir".
This news shocked Ning Fengzhi even more than Dai Mubai's level had. He knew how difficult it was to train a food system Spirit Master. While a control system Master can guide a team, a great food system Master can keep an entire army fighting. He had never even heard of a sixteen-year-old reaching Level 41 in that category.
Seeing the Sect Master's shock, Oscar felt a boost of confidence. He quickly added, "School Master Ning, I've always admired you. Since I'm a support type, I'd be honored to join your sect after I graduate".
Ning Fengzhi was overjoyed. He knew Dai Mubai wouldn't join, but Oscar was a rare talent. He didn't act like a high-ranking leader and quickly nodded. "I couldn't ask for more. Our sect always needs talent like yours. The doors are always open for you".
Then, Ning Rongrong leaned in and whispered to her father, "Dad, this is Huo Feng. He's our captain and the strongest person on the team. As for his spirit power... I can't tell you because it's a secret". She playfully stuck out her tongue, though her voice was a bit shaky. She couldn't bring herself to look at Huo Feng as her heart started to race.
Ning Fengzhi waved his hand dismissively. "Huo Feng's talent has already amazed me". He remembered when Rongrong first brought Huo Feng to the sect and the boy had given a demonstration. Even the Sword Douluo, Chen Xin, had been impressed by Huo Feng's skills. "I wouldn't be surprised by any level he's reached. I just wish you were as outstanding as he is".
"Hey! Am I that much of an embarrassment?" Rongrong pouted.
Ning Fengzhi laughed. "Of course not, you're my darling. I just mean that if you were like him, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would have a perfect successor". It was clear that Huo Feng was the one he respected the most, even if he knew the boy was too ambitious to ever join the sect.
Rongrong moved on to the next member. "This is Ma Hongjun, or 'Fatty.' He's a Level 41 attack system Battle Spirit Ancestor, and his Spirit is the Fire Phoenix".
"A Fire Phoenix?" Ning Fengzhi's eyes lit up. Phoenix spirits were top-tier, and the boy was incredibly young for his level. "Rongrong, is every single person on your team Level 40 or higher?".
Rongrong chuckled. "Not everyone. Our two substitutes haven't reached Level 40 yet". She pointed to the Sparta Brothers. "This is Pan Sen and Pan Lin. One has the Sparta Spear and the other has the Sparta Shield. They might be under Level 40, but they have a very powerful Martial Soul Fusion Skill".
Ning Fengzhi nodded, genuinely surprised by the rare spirits. Every member of the Shrek Team, even the substitutes, was formidable. He realized that the team's true strength was even greater than he had originally imagined.
