Chapter 21 People leaving the city and people entering the city Wang Nan did not return to the academy with Yan Shaozhe. Xingluo City was south of the Xingdou Great Forest, and it would take a long detour to return to the academy, so after coming out of the forest, he and Yan Shaozhe separated and headed south. At the beginning, he was alone. As he got farther and farther away from the Star Dou Great Forest, more and more soul masters came and went around him. Soon, he saw a camp. There are many carriages parked here, and there are some stalls next to them, selling food, tents and other things needed to enter the Star Dou Great Forest. When you get closer, you can hear noisy shouting and bargaining, just like a small market. One person was sharp-eyed and greeted Wang Nan enthusiastically after seeing him coming. Although Wang Nan looked young, all those who could set up stalls here were shrewd people, and no one dared to look down on someone who could come out of the Xingdou Great Forest. "Hello, soul master. You have just hunted a soul ring, right? Would you like to take a ride? Our carriages are all the latest models, and the ones pulling them are all well-trained soul beasts. We guarantee that nothing that happens along the way will affect the inside of the carriage. It is the best choice for rest or meditation." The man in front of Wang Nan was in his thirties. Like most of the vendors here, he was a soul master. However, they were not very talented and their cultivation had stopped at level 10 or 20. They could only do some business near the Star Dou Great Forest. Although it was a bit dangerous, they could still make a little more money than other places. In fact, Wang Nan's family also has several shops, but those are not completely considered as their assets. It's just that the owners of these shops came to the door and registered the shops under Wang Xing's name. Whether it's purchasing goods or going out to deliver goods, the name of Soul King can always avoid a lot of unnecessary troubles. It was already late when Wang Nan came out of the Xingdou Great Forest. He thought about it and agreed to take the bus. Douluo Continent was far less safe than the world in his previous life. There was no one else around him at this time, so he had to keep his soul power to deal with emergencies at all times. Taking the bus was a good choice. Although it was a little exaggerated, the car was indeed stable. Wang Nan meditated all the way until he arrived outside Xingluo City at dawn.
"Master Soul Master, I'm afraid we can't go any further." "what happens?" "Look." Wang Nan leaned out of the car and saw a mighty army standing at the city gate. The solemn momentum made everyone around them feel pressured. The leader was a tall man, and the flag behind him was embroidered with a lifelike white tiger. "Is this the Duke of White Tiger?" "Yes, Duke White Tiger is going to go to war again. I don't know where the war will break out again." Not long after, the Emperor of the Xingluo Empire arrived to personally escort Duke Baihu out of the city, and traffic was not allowed at the city gate until nearly noon. After Wang Nan entered the city, he walked along the street and soon saw his own yard. After leaving here for eleven months, seeing this familiar gate again gave him an inexplicable feeling in his heart. This was something he had never experienced in his previous life. "Dad, Mom, I'm back." As soon as he entered the yard, Wang Nan shouted loudly. "I'm glad you're back. Did you encounter any danger on the way?" Wang Nan just finished speaking when he saw his mother walking into the yard. She kept looking at him and said, "I haven't seen you for a year. You've grown a lot taller." Soul masters are taller than ordinary people because of their practice. Plus, the food at Shrek is good. At the age of eleven, Wang Nan is already over meters tall, which is not considered short among ordinary people. "It's taller and darker. Must it be hard to practice in the academy?" "It's okay, pretty much the same as home." "Teacher and classmates, have you been bullied? Do you understand what is being taught in class? If you have any questions, ask your second uncle." Wang Nan's mother was not very talented. Although she had awakened her martial soul, she had not obtained a soul ring to become a formal soul master. Therefore, she did not know that with Wang Nan's talent, it would be good enough if he did not bully others in the academy, so there was no reason for him to be bullied. While chatting with his mother about this and that, Wang Xing finally couldn't sit still anymore and pushed open the door and walked out. "Come in and chat when you come back. It's not nice to stand in the yard all the time." Wang Xing deliberately put on a stern face, but the two people who were chatting in the yard were not frightened by his appearance at all. They just paused for a moment and then burst into laughter. Wang Xing was instantly defeated. He took two quick steps to Wang Nan, patted him on the shoulder, and joined in the laughter. "Good, your cultivation has not fallen behind, and your body has become much stronger." Wang Xing asked with a smile, "I heard from your second uncle that you wanted to obtain the third spirit ring. Why did you come back so soon?"
“The journey was relatively smooth, and there were teachers from the academy with us, so it didn’t take too much effort.” "That's good, let's go inside and talk." As soon as he entered the room and sat down, Wang Nan suddenly remembered something and took out a few small bottles from the storage soul guide, which were exactly the ones Yan Shaozhe gave him. "Dad, these are the pills that the academy teacher gave me. It's safer in the academy, so I kept some for emergencies. The rest can be kept at home. These are made by the academy teachers, and the effects are better than those outside. Dad goes out often, so he should be able to use them." "How can this be possible? You also need to go out and hunt for spirit rings, and there will be competitions in the academy. You should keep these for yourself." "Why would I worry about not having elixirs in the academy? I'm a core disciple now, so I have plenty of elixirs. Dad, you can keep them." Wang Xing stared at Wang Nan's face for a long time before he spoke, "Alas, children have to grow up eventually. I didn't expect that I would have to rely on my children so soon. I am getting old after all." Wang Nan just smiled and didn't say anything. He was precocious since he was young, and Wang Xing wasn't a conservative person, so the relationship between them was not so serious, and Wang Xing would often make jokes like he was doing now. "Okay, I'll take these. Also, I've prepared a gift for you." Wang Xing took out a ring as he spoke. It was golden in color and engraved with complicated inscriptions, with a layer of milky white film in the middle. "The fifth-level soul guide invincible shield, with the strength of a soul king, can be used to block the full force attack of a soul douluo. I know you have been interested in soul guides since you were a child. I bought this specially from the Sun Moon Empire." "I was originally planning to give it to you when your soul power level is higher, but your soul power is increasing so fast, maybe one day you will have the opportunity to use it." Wang Nan took it with surprise. He had heard of the name of the invincible shield, but it was the first time he saw its original appearance. The rings around it were full of metallic texture, and when he touched the film in the middle, there was a gentle force that bounced his hand away, which was very magical. "Okay, let's study it slowly later. Now do you want to tell me and mom about what happened in the academy?" "Okay." (End of this chapter)
