Douluo : Diary System in Douluo Continent

Xiao Wu caught onto the key point: Ning Rongrong didn't deny that she might be easier to win over than Zhu Zhuqing. Instead, she diverted the topic, saying it wouldn't matter even if she agreed—the final decision rested with her three elders.

After all, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan was a prestigious and influential sect. As the heir, Ning Rongrong's partner would have to marry into her family. If he did, it would mean she would have to be his only wife.

Xiao Wu's gaze turned dangerous as she locked eyes with Rongrong. "Rongrong, so you admit you're easier to win over? Besides, I'm confident that with Brother Su Ming's abilities, he'll definitely find a way to convince your father and your two grandfathers to approve if the two of you have mutual feelings."

Having spent six years together, Xiao Wu felt she had a good grasp of Brother Su Ming's personality. What's more, he was unfathomable; who knew what other trump cards he might still be hiding?

Faced with Xiao Wu's probing look, Ning Rongrong felt a bit flustered. After some thought, she decided to just lay her cards on the table. "Fine, fine! I admit that I felt some affection for Su Ming the moment he stepped in to help. But it hasn't reached that level yet."

"Also, I've said it before: if someone can evolve my Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda into the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda, I'll marry him!"

"If Su Ming can do that, I believe my father and grandfathers won't object either. The Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda exists only in legend; no one has ever seen it. It's also my father's lifelong regret. He's been stuck at Rank 79 for ages."

Xiao Wu snorted. "Brother Su Ming has vast knowledge and even has a system. He'll definitely find a way to evolve your spirit. And don't forget, in the original story, you ascended to a second-tier god, even if there were some caveats. Do you realize what that implies?"

Ning Rongrong's heart raced as Xiao Wu's words triggered a memory. Su Ming had indeed mentioned in his diary that she eventually became a god. Her eyes sparkled with excitement. "That means, in the original timeline, my spirit evolved into the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda. Only then would I have the potential to become a god!"

At that moment, Ning Rongrong's eyes shone brightly as her thoughts raced. When would her spirit evolve this time? Would Su Ming help her?

If Su Ming truly helped her, would she have to keep her promise and marry him? As her mind wandered, Ning Rongrong's face grew increasingly red.

Meanwhile, Su Ming returned to his room and began writing in his diary. He hadn't finished today's entry yet. As for Oscar and Tang San, he had no intention of dealing with them unless absolutely necessary.

[Today's battles in the Spirit Arena are over. They did offer a glimpse of various martial spirits and soul skills, which I found intriguing. But to be honest, the arena doesn't really help improve my combat abilities. The opponents are too weak. They can't even withstand a tenth of my power. Sigh.]

[When will I finally meet a strong opponent for a sparring match? Of course, this person would have to be someone trustworthy. I can't risk someone harboring ill intentions against me.]

Ning Rongrong's heart skipped a beat as she read this. Su Ming wanted a stronger opponent? She immediately thought of her two grandfathers. But at present, they weren't exactly "trustworthy." She couldn't guarantee how they'd react upon witnessing Su Ming's true strength.

If Su Ming's power surpassed their expectations and he refused to join the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Clan, it might provoke hostility. After all, if he aligned with another force, it could pose a threat to the clan's prestige. Ning Rongrong quickly dismissed the idea.

[As for the battles in the Spirit Arena, I'll keep the record brief since nothing major happened. However, one thing caught my attention—Zhu Zhuqing's strength has significantly improved compared to the original timeline.]

[This was unexpected. Her third soul skill, Nether Slash, now has a bleeding effect, something absent in the original story. This additional effect has elevated what was once an ordinary skill to an exceptional one.]

[As long as Nether Slash can injure the opponent, Zhu Zhuqing stands a good chance in prolonged battles. This time, she even defeated Tang San thanks to this effect, whereas in the original story, she lost.]

[However, one thing puzzled me. When Zhu Zhuqing engaged Tang San in close combat, Tang San initially agreed. He was confident in his Tang Sect techniques, so why did he avoid further clashes after blocking a single Nether Slash with his Mysterious Jade Hand?]

Other female protagonists were also puzzled by this—why had Tang San chosen to evade instead of continuing to fight? Could it have something to do with the rewards Zhu Zhuqing had received from the diary?

The two women present both turned to look at Zhu Zhuqing.

Zhu Zhuqing smiled faintly and nodded. "Yes, you guessed right. Luckily, the diary granted me the ability to ignore defenses the day before we went to the Spirit Arena. Without it, defeating Tang San wouldn't have been so easy."

"Thanks to this ability, Tang San's Mysterious Jade Hand was rendered useless against me, creating an opening for my Nether Slash to land. Under continuous attacks, Tang San eventually made a mistake, and I managed to inflict a bleeding wound. I guess I was lucky."

"Of course, repeatedly using soul skills to accelerate and execute Nether Slash took a significant toll on my spirit power. Fortunately, I succeeded in the end."

Zhu Zhuqing's face lit up with joy. With her defense-piercing ability and the Nine Yin Manual she obtained, she felt confident that even Dai Mubai wouldn't stand a chance against her now.

Still, she lamented that her version of the Nine Yin Manual was incomplete—it only contained the internal energy cultivation method and lacked the corresponding techniques. If she had the full manual, her strength would soar even further.

Xiao Wu couldn't help but ask, "Zhuqing, I didn't see you running low on spirit power during the fight. Did the diary also grant you something to increase your spirit power reserves?"

Zhu Zhuqing hesitated for a moment before deciding to share. Xiao Wu and Rongrong were trustworthy, especially after Rongrong had defended her so passionately.

She spoke softly, "Yes, the diary helped, but it didn't increase my spirit power reserves. Instead, it gave me a cultivation technique."

"This technique is called the Nine Yin Manual. Unfortunately, it's incomplete—I only have the internal energy method. But because of it, my spirit power regenerates continuously, allowing me to sustain prolonged battles."
