Chapter 74 of "Douluo: Spiritual Sword" opens with: Seven Treasure City, named after the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, is also the location... See what unfolds next!

Seven Treasure City, named after the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, is also the location of the sect's headquarters. Recently, Seven Treasure City has been particularly lively. With the upcoming Title Ceremony, guests from all over have gradually gathered in the city. This era is still decades away from the future, and at this time, the status of a Titled Douluo is exceptionally prestigious. Among the so-called Seven Great Sects, only the Upper Three Sects have Titled Douluo overseeing them. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan has only one Titled Douluo, while the Lower Four Sects currently have none. The strongest among the Lower Four Sects, Tuoba Xi, the master of the Holy Dragon Sect, and Huyan Zhen, the master of the Elephant Armored Sect, are only above level 87, at the Soul Douluo level. Tuoba Xi might become a Titled Douluo in the future, but that would still take more than a decade. Thus, the sudden rise of a Titled Douluo in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is undoubtedly a major event that has shaken the continent. Ning Fengzhi also intends to use this Title Ceremony to showcase the sect's strength. "This is the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, huh? It's truly grand." Oslo and Yu Feng gazed at the luxurious sect compound with envy. Both of them, like Ye Lingling, came from minor noble families. Only through their talents were they able to enroll in Heaven Dou Imperial Academy. In terms of status, they were far inferior to geniuses like Tianlin and Tianheng, who were direct descendants of the top sects. "It is extravagant. If Dean Flender had such resources back then, my Shrek Academy wouldn't have struggled so much. Sigh!" Qin Ming seemed to recall his alma mater. Back in those days, poverty meant the academy didn't even have a mimicry cultivation area, suffered suppression from other academies, and couldn't even qualify for the Continental Advanced Spirit Master Academy Elite Tournament. "If Teacher Qin Ming is interested, you can join our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect anytime. I can guarantee you a position as an elder in the future," Tianlin said with a smile. Zhou Yan tugged at her boyfriend's sleeve upon hearing this. This was a great opportunity. Qin Ming hadn't joined any other faction yet, and joining the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would undoubtedly be an excellent choice. With his talent and Tianlin's support, the sect would undoubtedly cultivate him vigorously, and becoming a Titled Douluo would only be a matter of time. "Sorry, Xiao Tian. I don't plan to join any factions for now. But if I change my mind in the future, I'll consider your sect first," Qin Ming replied. While he didn't agree, he also didn't firmly refuse. Tianlin nodded. Having said what needed to be said, whether Qin Ming joined in the future would be his own choice. Tianlin had given him a piece of immortal herb purely as a gesture of friendship, never intending to use it for moral coercion. After leading the group through a long corridor, they finally arrived at the core of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect — the entrance to the Seven Treasure Hall. Today, the Seven Treasure Hall was open to the public. After all, the visitors were all esteemed guests, and barring them from entering the hall would have been extremely disrespectful. With Tianlin leading the way, they entered the hall unobstructed. At the center of the hall, five seats had already been arranged. One was the sect master's seat, while the other four belonged to the elders. Yin Yang was already seated. He had returned half a month earlier, and judging by his radiant demeanor, he had likely obtained the soul ring he had been longing for. Ning Fengzhi had probably also acquired his eighth ring by now. Tianlin and Gu Ran stepped forward, first bowing to Ning Fengzhi, then paying their respects to their respective masters. "Xiao Tian, Gu Ran, you've returned. And these must be the teachers and classmates from the Emperor Team?" Ning Fengzhi said with a smile. Tianlin nodded and introduced them. "Yes. These two are Teacher Qin Ming and Teacher Zhou Yan. These four are Senior Dugu Yan, Senior Ye Lingling, and Seniors Oslo and Yu Feng." "In addition, the Shi brothers and Tianheng will arrive later with their elders." "I am Qin Ming. Martial Soul: Inferno Grey Wolf, Level 55, Assault System Soul King. Greetings to Sect Master Ning and the three honored elders." Qin Ming greeted them politely, introducing his martial soul and level as a sign of respect, a common practice on the Douluo Continent. The others followed suit and introduced themselves. "Zhou Yan. Martial Soul: Butterfly, Level 51, Control System Soul King." "Oslo. Martial Soul: Ghost Leopard, Level 35, Agility System Soul Elder." "Yu Feng. Martial Soul: Windbell Bird, Level 35, Agility System Soul Elder." "Ye Lingling. Martial Soul: Nine-Hearted Begonia, Level 35, Healing System Tool Soul Elder." "Dugu Yan. Martial Soul: Ice-Fire Jade Phosphor Jiao, Level 39, Control System Soul Elder." After hearing their introductions, Ning Fengzhi was astonished. Had they stumbled upon a nest of geniuses? Qin Ming looked to be around 26 or 27 years old, yet he had already reached the middle stage of Soul King. At this rate, he might break through to Titled Douluo before the age of 60. The others, except for Zhou Yan, also had the potential to become Titled Douluo. No wonder Tianlin associated with them — as the saying goes, birds of a feather flock together. He also guessed that Tianlin had likely shared some immortal herbs with them. Otherwise, there was no way they could have progressed so much in such a short time. The last time Gu Ran mentioned them, they were just Soul Grandmasters. "Master, I am now a Level 37 Soul Elder, and I absorbed a 2,000-year-old Death Tyrannosaurus. Not only that, but I also obtained one of its torso bones," Gu Ran proudly reported his achievements to his master, Gu Rong. Gu Rong froze for a moment. Was this outstanding Gu Ran his previously clumsy disciple? Then he broke into a wide smile. "Good, good! Gu Ran, you have exceeded my expectations. From today onward, you are no longer my nominal disciple but my personal disciple." Gu Ran bowed repeatedly in gratitude. "Thank you, Master." Becoming Gu Rong's personal disciple had always been his dream. Tianlin was also happy for him. It seemed that the inheritance of the Sword and Bone Titled Douluos of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect would continue. Ning Fengzhi, needing to greet other guests, left Tianlin and Gu Ran in charge of their classmates and teachers. He repeatedly instructed them not to neglect their guests. The sect master was scheming to recruit these talents into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. "Teacher Qin Ming, this is where I live," Tianlin said, leading the group to his courtyard. The courtyard was spacious, with enough rooms to accommodate everyone. "Which room is next to yours? I'll stay there," Ye Lingling asked Gu Ran directly. Ever since following Tianlin, Gu Ran had also moved into his courtyard. Oslo and Yu Feng's eyes widened at Gu Ran. "Wow, when did you snag Ye Lingling?" Gu Ran felt awkward under their gazes. He hadn't! It was just that his boss, Tianlin, had inexplicably created an ambiguous atmosphere between them. "I know where Gu Ran's room is. Let me show you. It's right here," a sweet, childlike voice chimed in. It was Ning Rongrong, sent by Ning Fengzhi to host the guests in her capacity as the sect's future leader. Following her direction, they saw that Guran's room was to the left of Tianlin's. Ye Lingling decisively chose the room on the other side. "I'll stay here," she said, pushing open the door. Tianlin glanced at Ning Rongrong with a smile. This girl was clever, creating opportunities for Gu Ran. Gu Ran's efforts in calling her "Big Sis" so many times hadn't been in vain. Noticing Tianlin's approving expression, Ning Rongrong raised her head proudly. See, this young lady cares about the lifelong happiness of the sect's disciples. She would undoubtedly make a qualified sect leader someday.
