Chapter 21 - Chapter 21: Dai Mubai: What the Hell Are We Even Fighting For Now!

Within the heavenly curtain, the effects of decades-old whale glue were clearly displayed before everyone.

At this moment, all those watching the heavenly curtain synchronized their thoughts with Yu Xiaogang's mind.

Indeed, if decades-old whale glue was already this potent, then what about century-old, millennium-old, or even ten-thousand-year-old whale glue? How incredibly powerful must that be?

Black World, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

"Everyone, listen carefully. From now on, none of the pharmacies under our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School are allowed to stock whale glue anymore, not even ten-year-old ones!"

"Furthermore, everyone is to go out and search everywhere for people willing to sell whale glue and buy all the whale glue they have."

"Especially millennium-old and ten-thousand-year-old whale glue. No matter the price, our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School lacks many things, but we never lack money!"

"Also, assemble personnel immediately to form our own Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School Whaling Fleet. They must be elites! The ocean is vast, and I don't want any problems when the fleet sets sail."

"..."

One command after another issued from Sect Master Ning Fengzhi's mouth, then received by Sect members who quickly went to make arrangements.

Only after arranging all matters did Ning Fengzhi finally let out a long sigh and take a sip of tea from his cup.

"Whew, I truly never expected that whale glue, originally just used for arousal, could actually enhance a Spirit Master's Physique."

"I've used that stuff before myself, yet I completely missed this aspect."

Ning Fengzhi shook his head, speaking with a look of regret.

If they had discovered this earlier, all the whale glue on the Douluo Continent would have belonged to their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

"You used whale glue for arousal. If you could have discovered its hidden effect, that would have been truly miraculous."

Bone Douluo shot Ning Fengzhi a disdainful look. Under his gaze, Ning Fengzhi coughed awkwardly twice.

"With this discovery, Spirit Masters' Physiques will be enhanced in the future, allowing them to absorb spirit rings of slightly higher age limits. This might even help our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School evolve the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda."

"Looking at it this way, we should call Rongrong back. She's just starting out, her talent is excellent; she could completely grow alongside the Dragon God Douluo in the heavenly curtain!"

Clearing his throat twice, Ning Fengzhi's expression became much more serious.

Hearing Ning Fengzhi's words, the expressions of Bone Douluo and Sword Douluo also turned serious.

When it concerned the Sect, they had to adopt a serious attitude.

However.

"As for Rongrong, can she endure it?"

"You must know, whale glue is..."

Sword Douluo didn't finish his sentence, but his meaning was clear: he was reluctant to let Ning Rongrong undertake these things.

"Indeed, Feng Zhi, you saw the state of those pigs used in the experiments. Although their Physiques were enhanced, they had to endure the flames of desire during the process."

"As a father, are you willing to let your own daughter go through that?"

Hearing Sword Douluo's words, Bone Doulro also showed a resistant expression.

"...Forget it, I didn't consider it thoroughly enough. But let's still call Rongrong back first. With the heavenly curtain's descent and the continent in turmoil, I'm not at ease with her staying outside."

Ning Fengzhi fell silent for a moment, finally sighing.

If it were solely up to Ning Fengzhi himself, he would definitely let Ning Rongrong try. After all, before being a father, he was first the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

For the sake of the Sect, merely having his daughter suffer a bit was a very worthwhile trade.

But precisely because he was the Sect Master, he also had to consider the feelings of Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo.

If they were unwilling, even if Ning Fengzhi himself was willing, he couldn't force it.

Apart from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the upper echelons of all forces in the Black and White Worlds, upon seeing the experimental results, unanimously issued tasks to their Sects to collect whale glue.

Currently, there are virtually no drugs on the Douluo Continent explicitly known to enhance Physique. Whale glue is the first, and the strength of one's Physique is directly related to the age limit of the spirit rings one can obtain.

The age limit of a spirit ring determines a Spirit Master's future.

It could be said that at this moment, in the hearts of the people of Douluo Continent, whale glue represented the future of Spirit Masters.

Not taking action now would mean having no future.

Black World, Shrek Academy.

Whoosh!

With a whoosh, Flender, his face grim, descended from the sky, dispelling his Spirit possession.

"How did it go, Dean? Did you manage to buy any whale glue?"

As his Disciple, Ma Hongjun immediately approached and asked upon seeing his teacher's return.

"No. All the pharmacies in Suotuo City said they no longer have whale glue in stock."

"That's bullshit! I saw it for sale in the city's pharmacies just a couple of days ago, even millennium-old whale glue!"

Dai Mubai nearby said angrily.

His words caused Ma Hongjun and Oscar to give him a strange look, but only for a moment.

Right now, they were more concerned about the whale glue matter.

After all, only with whale glue could they obtain higher-age spirit rings.

This concerned their own futures.

"I know they used to sell it, but they aren't selling it now. What can we do about it?"

"We can't just go and rob them, can we?"

Flender's face was as dark as water.

He recalled the previous discussion with Zhao Wuji and others about hoarding a batch of medicinal materials to make a hefty profit.

Thinking of his own response back then, the current Flender wished he could Transmigrate to the past and strangle his former self.

Making you overthink things. Just follow what Xiaogang in the heavenly curtain does, why bother thinking for yourself?

Now look, vast sums of money that could have been earned have all flown away!

"Then what should we do? Given our situation, the only way for us to get whale glue is to buy it."

"But now no one is willing to sell."

"Doesn't that mean knowing the secret of whale glue is the same as not knowing it for us?"

Ma Hongjun wore a dejected expression.

The expressions on Oscar, Tang San, and the others' faces were equally unpleasant.

Like Ma Hongjun, the only way for them to obtain whale glue was to buy it, but now they couldn't.

Didn't this mean they would fall far behind their Spirit Master peers in the future?

If anyone's mood was the worst at this moment, it was undoubtedly Dai Mubai's.

His greatest feeling right now was despair.

As a prince of the Star Luo Empire, to survive in the future, Dai Mubai had to defeat his elder brother, Dai Weisi.

Dai Weisi already held the advantage in this fraternal struggle. Dai Mubai had fled back then precisely because he felt he couldn't win against him.

Now, the heavenly curtain had provided the intelligence that whale glue could enhance a Spirit Master's Physique, allowing them to obtain higher-age spirit rings.

Great. On his side, for various reasons, they couldn't get whale glue.

In contrast, Dai Weisi, being within the Empire, how could he possibly lack whale glue?

With whale glue, the already large gap between them grew even wider.

What the hell was he even fighting for now?

Might as well just lie down and wait for death.

Zhu Zhuqing, watching Dai Mubai's crumbling expression beside him, also felt despair rising in her heart.

However, she didn't develop the thought of lying down and waiting for death like Dai Mubai.

No matter the final outcome, at least before that day arrived, Zhu Zhuqing would exert every ounce of effort to strive.

Life or death would be decided when the time came.
