《The Legend of The Grandmaster》Chapter 66

As the event was almost over and with Ning Fengzhi's departure, many people left the venue. Still, many nobles were seated.
After living in Heaven Dou City for many years, most of them were already aware of Prince Xue Xing's unreasonable behavior. Moreover, some of them even have a good relationship with the prince.
Salas had a paranoid personality, and he sensed that Prince Xue Xing came to the Shrek Academy with bad intentions.
So, Salas decided to remain behind to watch a good show. He was eager to see Yu Xiaogang suffer.

[ Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan ]
" Fengzhi, although Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan is rich, you practically gave away one million gold coins for free. " Bone Douluo asked as soon as they returned to the clan.
Although Bone Douluo was a little concerned about the money, what confused him the most was that he could not understand Ning Fengzhi's motive.
Ning Fengzhi smiled and asked, " Uncle Bone, do you think I donated those million gold coins? "
" Yes. " Bone Douluo nodded.
Ning Fengzhi shook his head and said, " No, it was not a charity. Shrek Academy is not as simple as it seems on the surface. Moreover, there were two reasons behind this. Firstly it was a small test for Flender; secondly, a warning to Prince Xue Xing. "
What Ning Fengzhi did not know was that he overestimated Xue Xing's IQ and underestimated his greed.
Although Bone Douluo had not been out of the clan for a long time; still, it did reduce his understanding of the Empire. He immediately realized what Fengzhi meant.
" Fengzhi, is it alright? Xue Xing is the Emperor's younger brother. " Bone Douluo was concerned about the future of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. He still felt that there was a high chance that Fengzhi would lose this gamble.

Although there are two Titled Douluo present in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan, the Empire is not without other options.
There are still the other two clans to restrain the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan. Moreover, there is a more powerful Spirit hall waiting for the three clans to fight among themselves.
Ning Fengzhi's expression turned solemn, " Uncle Bone, you already know that the overall strength of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan is weaker as compared to the other two clans. "
" From what I feel, Shrek Academy is the key to break the balance among the top three clans. " He continued.
Bone Douluo asked back in doubt, " Although they have a spirit-douluo and three spirit-sages. How can this strength help the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan break the balance? "
Ning Fengzhi shook his head and said, " What I value is not their individual strength but their spirit fusion ability. Uncle Bone, you can not defeat their spirit fusion ability unless I amplify your strength. "
Bone Douluo was shocked after hearing this. He is currently a rank 95 Titled Douluo, yet Fengzhi said he could not defeat the other party. How could it not shock him?
He impatiently asked, " Fengzhi, you are not joking, right? " If what he said is true, then Shrek academy is really a hidden existence, which can turn the tides.
Fengzhi did not speak; instead, he took out a document from his storage tool and handed it over to Bone Douluo.
The intelligence team of Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Clan is really frightening. This document not only recorded the recent attack on the Shrek Academy, but it also recorded all the information about Yu Xiaogang and others. It was only after reading this report that Ning Fengzhi took the first opportunity of showing his goodwill.

Bone Douluo took the document and walked out of the room. Obviously, he had gone to find Sword Douluo to ask his opinion on this matter.

[ Shrek Academy ]
Apart from some small talk among the nobles, the rest sat silently and waited for Prince Xue Xing to lead.
Flender had also retreated and sat together with Xiaogang and others. They were not worried about what was going to happen.
Everyone's eyes turned towards Prince Xue Xing as he stood up.
Xue Xing looked around before he turned his attention back towards Flender. At first, he was only thinking of subduing the Shrek academy, but now he even wanted to take away the million gold coins.
Although Xue Xing was a prince and the Emperor's younger brother, his greediness and arrogance knew no bounds. Moreover, Dugu Bo, a Titled Douluo's protection, also made Xue Xing more confident.
Xue Xing smiled and said, " Shrek Academy surprised me. " Although there was a smile on his face, yet Xue Xing's tone was filled with pride.
" I thank Prince Xue Xing for your kind words. " Xiaogang replied instead of Flender. Moreover, while speaking, he added more importance to the word, ' Prince. '
Xue Xing did not seem to understand the meaning behind Xiaogang's words and said, " As the Supervisor of Heaven Dou Imperial Academy, I would like to invite Shrek academy to become a part of the Imperial academy. "
" Under my supervision, the Imperial family will provide more resources. Still, you will have to show enough sincerity. " Xue Xing continued.
" I thank Prince Xue Xing for his generous offer, but Shrek academy is okay with the way things are at present. Moreover, we already have enough money to purchase resources. " Xiaogang's tone was still humble yet full of rejection.
Xue Xing almost cursed Ning Fengzhi after hearing Xiaogang's words. He was already prepared for some resistance, but the other party's outright rejection was not within his expectations.
Xue Xing did not reply; instead, he stood silently for a while, pondering whether to ask Dugu Bo to take action or not.
On the other side, Xiaogang also looked at the prince standing in front of him with interest.
Xue Xing sighed and exhaled the air from his lungs; he turned around, looked at Dugu Bo, and said, " Senior Dugu, please. " In front of others, Xue Xing showed a lot of respect to the Poison Douluo.
Although Xue Xing still had other methods up his sleeve; yet, it would be time-consuming, and if he gave up this opportunity, there might not be the next time.
Xue Xing did not even consider the consequences if Poison Douluo was to fail. He felt that a Titled Douluo stepped on the stage, then it should be by rights for him to win.
Even though he had already promised Xue Xing, Dugu Bo still felt reluctant to intervene.
After sighing, Poison Douluo stood up and said, " Follow me. " After thinking for a moment, he decided to take the battle out of Heaven Dou City.
A Titled Douluo level fight could destroy the entire city. Moreover, it was Prince Xue Xing; who caused unnecessary trouble. Hence to protect the face of the royal family, Dugu Bo finally decided to fight outside.
Xiaogang also understood the meaning that before the strong, all rules be bent. He turned around, gestured Flender and Erlong to follow him.
Before leaving, Xiaogang called Zhao Wuji and spoke in an inaudible voice. Although people could not hear, they still had some guesses.
