[Outsiders did not know what price the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Clear Sky Sect ultimately paid.]
[In any case, after this incident concluded, the Clear Sky Sect directly announced they would decline all visitors and no longer participate in any invitations.]
[As for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, although it's unknown how much they paid to stop the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect from pursuing their responsibility, it was clear from the unchanging, stone-faced expressions of their higher-ups for many years afterward that it must have been a lot.]
[After all, when a group of smiling tigers can no longer smile, could the price they paid be small?]
[This was just the direct impact; the indirect impact was even more far-reaching.]
[For instance, the Strength Clan, the fuse of this conflict, met their end despite their previous arrogance.]
[The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect stayed true to their word; with this move, the entire Douluo Continent witnessed their iron-blooded methods.]
[As for the other three of the Four Great Single-Attribute Sects, they were punished by the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect for following Tai Tan's actions.]
[If it were just the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's punishment, it would have been fine, as the Sect considered their mistakes minor and showed some mercy.]
[But when it came to the Clear Sky Sect, in order to fill their own holes, they nearly sucked the three clans dry.]
[After looking at their bare-walled Sects following the incident, several high-ranking members of the three clans nearly died of anger.]
[Because of this, the three clans didn't even hate the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect that much anymore.]
[Ultimately, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect acted according to reason, and they themselves were in the wrong.]
[But the Clear Sky Sect? They specifically targeted their own people to cause ruin.]
[Even the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, who had the moral high ground, wasn't as ruthless as you, the Clear Sky Sect!]
[Do you really not care about our survival and just treat us like the Clear Sky Sect's slaves?]
[In that case, what more is there to say? Whoever wants to be this subsidiary Sect can go right ahead!]
[The three clans, harboring resentment toward the Clear Sky Sect, discussed it and decided to break away from the Clear Sky Sect to huddle together for warmth on their own.]
[Finally, there was the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, the total victor of this affair.]
[They earned so much that their pockets were overflowing.]
[In terms of resources, with the compensation from the Clear Sky Sect and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, it's no exaggeration to say that even Spirit Hall and the Two Great Empires would be envious of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's harvest.]
[Spirit Bones, secret medicine formulas, Cultivation insights—there were all sorts of treasures of every description.]
[Even the Heart Separation Control method, one of the core secret techniques of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, had to be handed over because the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect specifically demanded it.]
[For many years afterward, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect relied on the resources obtained this time to vigorously Cultivate talent, allowing their Sect to improve steadily.]
[On the other hand, in terms of reputation, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect could be said to have surpassed the Clear Sky Sect and taken the position of the worlds number one sect.]
[Although many older generation Spirit Masters still had some objections to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect taking this position—after all, the Clear Sky Sect still had one final trump card, Tang Chen.]
[But the Clear Sky Sect had reached such a state and Tang Chen still hadn't stood up; who knew when he would ever appear?]
[Furthermore, the current Yu Yuanzhen was no simple character either.]
[His pitch-black lightning made many people feel that even if Tang Chen reappeared, he might not necessarily be able to defeat Yu Yuanzhen.]
[At least until Tang Chen stood up to help the Clear Sky Sect defeat the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, the title of the World's number one Sect firmly rested on the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's head.]
[And this title, combined with the secret medicine the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect displayed that could help Spirit Masters increase the age of their spirit rings, and treasures that could allow Spirit Saints and Spirit Douluo whose potential was exhausted to achieve a Breakthrough.]
[All of these were attracting a massive number of Spirit Masters to join them.]
[Among them were no shortage of experts who originally had good feelings toward other Sects.]
[For example, Gu Rong, who had been chatting happily with Ning Fengzhi and had already agreed to join the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, became hesitant because of this incident.]
[It wasn't that he looked down on the current, heavily damaged Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.]
[It was because Gu Rong saw that his old rival Yu Yuanzhen, who had similar talent and Rank to himself, now possessed such strength, so he developed a certain desire for the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's treasures.]
[He also wanted to pursue a higher Realm and stronger power.]
[On another side, Chen Jianjun also brought his son, Chen Xin, to visit Yu Yuanzhen, intending to discuss the Cultivation experience of a Titled Douluo with him.]
[The Two Great Empires also sent letters to the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect to discuss marriage alliances.]
[It could only be said that everything was developing according to the vision of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's higher-ups.]
[Of course, the Douluo Continent would never lack people watching for drama, and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect would not lack mortal enemies.]
[These people were making no moves for now, but they were all waiting.]
[Waiting for some day in the future when the Clear Sky Douluo, Tang Chen, would return to settle the debt with the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect.]
[As for the thoughts of these people, Yu Yuanzhen and the other higher-ups of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect merely smiled without saying a word.]
In the Black World, the three people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
"As expected, because of Father's wrong decision, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School suffered heavy losses."
"I just didn't expect the impact to be so great that even the matter of Uncle Bone and Uncle Sword joining the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School became uncertain."
"But it makes sense; at that time, I truly wouldn't have had the confidence to invite you two."
Ning Fengzhi sighed with emotion.
He had anticipated that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would suffer heavy losses, but the matter regarding Bone Douluo and Sword Douluo greatly exceeded Ning Fengzhi's expectations.
These two were the guarantees for his position as the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
"Uh... as for me, it seems I really might have hesitated for the sake of greater strength."
"Back then, Yu Yuanzhen, that Old Sword Freak, Qian Xunji, and I were of the same generation, fighting each other, and no one would submit to another."
"If I were really to become the one with the lowest strength among everyone, I certainly wouldn't be happy about it."
Bone Douluo said after pondering for a moment.
He could accept not being first, but being last?
Bone Douluo would have to give it another hard push no matter what.
Bone Douluo's words left Ning Fengzhi speechless; after all, at the level of a Titled Douluo, what Spirit Masters cared about most was their reputation.
The weakest of one's generation.
If that title really fell on him, he wouldn't be able to stand it either.
Sword Douluo, who was nearby, did not speak.
Back then, he followed his father, Chen Jianjun, traveling the continent. Although he did indeed know Ning Fengzhi, they weren't particularly close.
The two only truly became familiar after his father died while challenging Qian Daoliu.
Therefore, Sword Douluo wouldn't be surprised by anything his parallel world self did.
Looking at the contemplative Bone Douluo and Sword Douluo, Ning Fengzhi could only once again feel lucky that the Yu Xiaogang of his own World was a waste.
Otherwise, with his own Sect suffering and the future Guardian Douluo potentially disappearing, he really wouldn't know how to take over such a mess.
