Chapter 1218: Strict and Thorough Examination

As he spoke, he could not help feeling disappointed. The reason he had passed by Eastsea City on his way to Skysea City was so that he could revisit this place which he had missed for so long.

This was where he had studied and lived. In other words, this was his starting point. Back then, he had gotten to know his companions here and subsequently…her.

Revisiting the place, Eastsea City seemed to have remained the same. It appeared that the dozen years that passed had not managed to alter it even slightly. However, in his heart, everything had changed.

He tried hard to fight back the urge to run home. ‘Father, Mother, I’ll bring you back.’

The soul train arrived with a whistle, and the people on the platform began to board. The VIP seats were indeed comfortable. Everyone had their own spacious area, and various food and drink was available for them to choose.

They got on the train and the leading youth sat in front. His express also changed from disappointed to watchful.

It was about to start!

The Hawk Faction had finally gained an absolute majority in the parliament. The act of deploying soldiers was like an arrow on a bowstring. Expeditions were undertaken amid a din of drums and gongs. That was also the reason why security in Skysea City had been so tight these days.

Every single vehicle that went into or out of the city had to undergo a strict and thorough examination. This might be due to the trauma created by the bombing of Shrek Academy using fixed soul ammunitions.

The soul train arrived at Skysea City station. When the nine of them disembarked, the first thing they had to face was the security checks.

Although it was not as strict as the vehicle checks, their bodies would still have to be scanned with specialized equipment.

They could only say they had truly entered Skysea City after passing the scans without incident.

The young man who led the pack in front was Tang Wulin. The tall, muscular youth with long hair who walked alongside him was undoubtedly A Ruheng.

His bald head was too eye-catching. That was why Tang Wulin had put a wig on him while he disguised him. It had the necessary effect. At least, it softened his features a lot.

Sima Jinchi’s disguise was the simplest. He simply shaved his beard and trimmed his brows. This already made him look gentler. Without all that, he looked very different. This was also the reason why A Ruheng said that he resembled a toy boy.

The others all had simple makeup on to conceal their outstanding looks.

Because of their families, the first country that they chose to go to was Dou Spirit. The Dou Spirit Empire was much weaker compared to the Star Luo Empire. It was in greater need of the Tang Sect’s reinforcements, so it was more appropriate for them to head there first.

Tang Wulin had been itching to try this for a long time. If he could reach an agreement with the Spirit Dou Empire, it would be much easier for him to search for his parents within its boundaries.

“Hmm? Which system are you?” Tang Wulin was leading his companions out of the station when they suddenly heard a crisp voice. The speaker was blocking their way.

Tang Wulin stopped in his tracks. What he saw was a beautiful smile. After just a moment’s glance, he understood why she was hindering them.

It was a young girl who looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years of age. She was also wearing Skysea Academy’s uniform, just like what they were wearing. The young girl was beautiful. She had big eyes and curved brows. She appeared to be full of the vigor of youth.

Skysea Academy’s uniform was a type of formal dress. Although Tang Wulin had put on makeup, he could not alter his physique. He carried a simple bag in his right hand which contained a few changes of clothes. When he slung it over his shoulder and stood there with his slender build in a fitted uniform, it was very easy for him to attract the eyes of the girls.

The reason he carried a bag was to conceal his identity better. If he had boarded the soul train empty-handed, he would stand out even more. Where I would you find a student without a bag?

Tang Wulin had a strange look on his face. They had only worn Skysea Academy’s uniform to conceal their identities. They had never expected that they would actually run into a Skysea Academy student here.

Skysea Academy was the largest academy in Skysea City. It had students of different ages. It also had soul master and mecha branches. It was the most powerful academy on the eastern side of the Douluo Continent.

“We’re from the soul master branch,” replied Tang Wulin drily. His expression was slightly cold, and he seemed to keep everybody at arm’s length. He did his best to convey the message ‘Get lost and don’t bother me’. He did not want to spend too much time on this young girl.

However, no matter how hard he tried to conceal himself, he did not understand a young girl’s heart. When she saw his debonair looks, the girl blinked. “Judging by your appearance, you must be a senior. I’m a new student in Skysea, and I’m also from the soul master branch! Senior, I don’t know my way around here, so can you take me to the academy?”

Tang Wulin could not help feeling speechless. The others were also throwing them strange looks. What exactly was going on here?

“I’m sorry, but I don’t have time. Please figure it out yourself.” After he had finished, Tang Wulin turned around and left. The others followed naturally behind him, walking past the girl.

The young girl stood where she was. She quickly pouted her red lips. ‘What kind of person is this? Am I really that unlikeable?’

‘However, that icy look of his is really cool! Since we’re both in the soul master branch, we’ll definitely meet each other sooner or later. Humph!’

“Captain, I never thought I’d see you being forced to admit defeat,” said Xu Xiaoyan with a snicker.

Xie Xie sighed. “Comparisons are odious! Why are you still able to attract the ladies even with this disguise on?”

“Who are you trying to attract?” Yuanen Yehui looked at him with calm eyes.

Xie Xie shivered. “No one! I’ll only attract you for the rest of my life. Ever since I saw what I shouldn’t see, my heart and soul have been taken prisoner by what I shouldn’t have seen.”

“Do you have a death wish!?” She was bursting with murderous intent.

Tang Wulin felt helpless as well. He was unsure if his rudeness would distress the young girl. However, he truly had no intention of wasting his time.

At that point, the soul communicator on his wrist rang. Tang Wulin picked up the call and Long Yuxue’s voice came from the other end, “Captain, things aren’t looking too good. We don’t know why, but Skysea City has suddenly increased the intensity of their checks especially at their transportation hubs. The security checks there were greatly strengthened. They installed new soul power detecting units. All soul masters with three rings and above will have to go through detailed identity checks. You guys must be there already, so please be careful when you exit.”

“Hmm?” Tang Wulin had a slight frown. ‘What’s this? Could it be that the Tang Sect’s actions have been found out?’

Soul power detecting units. This was troublesome.

The Federation’s latest soul power detecting device was very advanced. It could detect minute changes in soul power. Although Tang Wulin could conceal his soul power fluctuations with his bloodline power, it would be somewhat difficult for the others to do the same.

Although they had aliases, their cultivation bases were too strong. If any one of them were found out to have a cultivation base of greater than seven rings, they would most likely run into unnecessary trouble.

Their greatest advantage for the time being was that news of Shrek Academy’s rebuilding had not leaked out yet. Everything was still done in secret.

“We’ll cover you at the exit. If anything happens, we’ll take the back,” came Long Yuxue’s voice again.

“There’s no need to be too worried. I’ll handle this.” With that, Tang Wulin ended the call.

On the other side, Long Yuxue put down her soul communicator. An upset look flashed across her face. His words were always so comforting, and they seem to be able to influence the people around him more and more. A simple ‘I’ll handle this’ had made her feel as if he could take care of everything. Was this what they called charisma?

What she did not know was that when a soul master’s spiritual cultivation base had reached Spirit Domain, he would naturally release some minute spiritual fluctuations which would influence his surroundings. He would also appear more charismatic as well.

“Captain, what’s wrong?” asked Ye Xinglan.

Tang Wulin replied, “They have soul power detectors. Wait for me here.” He quickly turned around and walked in the direction from where they came.

The Skysea Academy young girl was stomping her feet at the spot where they met. She was ready to walk out of the station when she suddenly saw Tang Wulin coming back.

“Let’s go. I’ll take you to the academy,” Tang Wulin walked up to her and spoke drily.

When she saw his tall, well-built figure, the young girl’s beautiful face could not keep from blushing. Her heart was beating faster despite herself.

“Ah, senior, my name’s Li Na. What’s your name?”

“I’m Gu Yue.” Tang Wulin had a helpless expression. “You came to Skysea Academy from another city?”

“I did! From Eastsea City. I was from Eastsea Academy. Because of my outstanding results, I got accepted into Skysea Academy’s soul master branch,” said Li Na with a sweet smile.

‘From Eastsea City? What a coincidence. It seems that this girl had been on the same train as us.’

Tang Wulin nodded and said, “Let’s go then. Have you got your identification documents ready? The security has been very strict in Skysea City lately. Everybody has to undergo strict identity checks, especially us soul masters.”
