He used a little of his spiritual power to cover this young lady before him. Shockingly, he noticed that this girl, who looked to be only eighteen or nineteen years of age, already had a cultivation base that was at the pinnacle of three rings. She was only one step away from four rings.
If she was from Shrek Academy, such a level would not mean anything among her peers. However, this was an outstanding achievement in an ordinary place such as this.
âI did, I did.â Li Na quickly took out her identification documents from her own bag. âThe academy sent me the uniform, registration manual, and my identification documents. They also reminded me that the security checks here in Skysea City are very strict and told me to bring everything. So, I did. However, this is my first time being away from home alone, and Iâm slightly scared. Thankfully youâre here to help me, senior. Youâre a really nice person.â
When he saw her lively expression, Tang Wulinâs glare toned down. âLetâs go, then.â
He brought Li Na back to his companions and walked in front with her.
As expected, just as Long Yuxue had said, at the exit of the train station, there was a soul power detector. Everyone would have to pass by it and be scanned before they exited the train station.
Tang Wulin did a quick take of his surroundings and spread his spiritual power widely. It formed a huge net which probed everything around him.
His spiritual cultivation base was already on par with a Hyper Douluo. He quickly learned of the situation around the train station.
There was a mecha squadron on patrol near the station. There were more than thirty federal soldiers at the exit. On the soul power detectorâs side, there was one mecha and ten soldiers.
Once they noticed someone suspicious, they would immediately carry out an examination and verify the personâs identity.
Tang Wulin made a gesture toward his companions behind him. The others slowed their pace. Tang Wulin and Li Na walked outside. At the same time, Tang Wulin slowly adjusted his soul power shockwave in secret.
When the two of them went past the soul power detector with the other members of the public, the soul power detector immediately buzzed. The soldiers noticed them right away. They raised their beam assault rifles at them.
âYou two, come over here.â
Li Na was startled. âHey, what are you doing? How can you point guns at us? Weâre students of Skysea Academy!â
âJust doing a routine check. Please come here to verify your identities.â A few soldiers had already walked up to them.
Li Na seemed to be shocked. She was slightly flustered as she said, âSenior, what do we do?â
âJust let them verify everything.â Tang Wulin appeared very calm. He even patted her shoulder to reassure her.
The duo followed the soldiers to the soul power detector. The soldiers lowered their beam assault rifles as well.
âPlease produce your identification documents.â
Li Na glanced at Tang Wulin. After he had nodded at her, she passed her letter of admittance and identification card to the soldier and Tang Wulin did the same. Of course, his documents were genuine. With Tang Sectâs resources, it was not difficult to produce authentic documents.
After a thorough examination, the soldier in charge of handling them said gently, âItâs alright, just a routine check. You may leave now. One three-ringed and one four-ringed. Not bad having such an achievement at your age. Keep up the good work.â
Li Na glanced at Tang Wulin beside her. She thought to herself, âThis senior has four rings. Heâs so strong! He doesnât look much older than me either.â
Tang Wulin nodded toward the soldier. Then, he went out with Li Na.
The group kept walking out of the station. At that point, the soldier who was in charge of the soul power detector suddenly exclaimed, âWhatâs this? Why did the screen black out? Is the power disconnected?â
The few soldiers quickly checked the detector in a flurry. At this moment, the other six Monsters, A Ruheng, and Sima Jinchi exited the train station. Nothing appeared out of the ordinary.
After leaving the station, Li Na said to Tang Wulin beside her, âSenior, Iâm so grateful that you were there. I was almost scared to death just now. Whyâs Skysea City like this nowadays? The soldiers flash their weapons before even asking questions. I heard that a war is brewing? Is it true?â
Tang Wulin replied, âDo you hope that itâs true?â
Li Na shook her head, âOf course not. War is the scariest thing in the world. Iâve read in the novels that when thereâs a war, the fields will be filled with corpses. Thatâs so scary.â
Tang Wulin smiled and said, âI have something else that I have to attend to. Weâre already in Skysea City, I donât think youâll encounter any problems here. There are taxis there. Iâll hail one for you and send you straight to the academy. Weâll meet again if weâre fated to do so.â
Shocked, Li Na said, âSenior, arenât you going to the academy with me?â Her tone was filled with disappointment.
Tang Wulin replied, âI have something important to attend to. If we bump into each other in the academy some time after this, Iâll treat you to a meal.â
âAlright.â She pouted her red lips, obviously unsatisfied. âSenior, Iâll take your word on that.â
âMmm,â Tang Wulin waved at her. He brought his companions to the side. Long Yuxue and the members from the Blood Dragon Unit who came to fetch them were already waiting for them.
As she watched them leave, Li Na strode toward a nearby taxi with a sour look. As she walked, her gaze suddenly became clear. In the depths of her eyes, a faint green color flashed past.
âTwo Title Douluos and a seven-ringed Soul Saint. Interesting. Are they from the Battle God Hall?â
Taking the taxi which Long Yuxue had booked, Tang Wulin and the others arrived at a middle-class hotel in the center of Skysea City.
When Tang Wulin returned to his own room, the Amorous Douluo Zang Xin was already waiting for him there.
âYour Excellency,â Tang Wulin saluted Zang Xin.
Zang Xin stood up as well, âSect Master.â
Tang Wulin said with a bitter smile, âEven now, Iâm still not used to it.â
Zang Xin grinned, revealing his white teeth. If it were not for his slightly weathered gaze, Tang Wulin would have thought that this great person in front of him was his peer. After all, his outer appearance was only that of a twenty-year old.
âYouâll get used to it. Weâll depart in three days. The preparation works have been completed already,â Zang Xin said simply.
Tang Wulin said, âAlthough I donât know how you did it, I truly admire you. Iâve heard that the port was shut down a long time ago and no commercial vessels are allowed to embark in the direction of the Dou Spirit Empire and the Star Luo Empire. All information regarding the two continents has been classified. How did you get an ocean liner to head in that direction?â
Zang Xin smiled, âTang Sect operates in all three lands. If it couldnât do something as simple as this, wouldnât we be wasting ten thousand years of development? Youâll know when the time comes. This mission is important. Iâll leave the Dou Spirit and Star Luo Empires to you.â
Tang Wulin nodded. âDonât worry, Your Excellency. Iâll give it my all, for Tang Sect, for Shrek, and for all the ordinary citizens. Weâll avoid this conflict no matter what.â
Zang Xin said, âEverything should proceed according to plan. When you arrive, thereâll be people from our side to fetch you.â
Tang Wulin replied, âUnderstood. Your Excellency, do you have anything else to say to us?â
After a brief moment of silence, Zang Xin replied, âOne more thing. Youâre not only sending the weapons we supplied over. At the same time, you must ensure, to the best of your ability, that these weapons wonât actually be used on the federal army. Otherwise, the Tang Sect will be the criminal here. The conflict between the Dou Spirit Empire, the Star Luo Empire and the Federation runs deep. If they suddenly had such sophisticated weapons and used them to attack instead of to intimidate, the Federal army will surely experience a great loss. Thatâs not something that we want to see. The balance in all this is very important. Although the Tang Sect has great sway over the Dou Spirit and Star Luo Continents, itâs hard to guarantee that the radicals wonât initiate a war anyway. So, you mustnât back down when itâs time for you to be strict. You must make them understand. We can support them, but we can destroy them as well.â
