Douluo Continent: The Book of Witness and Peerless Tang Sect

Because they were taking stock of their soul tools, equipment, food supplies, and other items, Long You and He Caitou walked behind Bei Bei and Tang Ya.

Because of this, Long You and his companion were able to witness the entire process of the red-clad senior descending from the sky from a more comfortable angle. It must be said, she was both cool and beautiful.

Long You is a single man, both in his past and present lives, but he feels he has seen plenty of beautiful women. If the beauties in his past life might have been tech-savvy beauties, then in this life, Long You has also seen naturally beautiful women like Tang Ya and Jiang Nannan.

Long You never really cared about these beautiful women, only glancing at them. He initially wondered if he was simply insensitive to such things, and if he might remain single for a long time, perhaps even forever.

However, Long You now knows that he is still a normal man who yearns for the opposite sex. At least, the senior in red in front of him has already given Long You a feeling that starts with her appearance.

Before Long You could even nudge He Caitou beside him and tell the guy that he seemed to be in love, Bei Bei's conversation with the senior in red was like a bucket of ice water poured over Long You's already feverish head.

"Senior Zhang, what do you mean? Xiaoya's martial soul problem has been resolved, and the academy has no intention of restricting Xiaoya's movements."

Long You didn't know the specifics of how Tang Ya resolved the martial soul issue, but from the fact that Bei Bei, who was usually so gentle and refined, was hiding an undisguised anger in her tone, Long You realized that things seemed a bit complicated.

However, faced with Bei Bei's questioning tone, which was clearly provoked and wanted to protect his wife, this senior student, who was obviously from Shrek Academy, did not show much emotional fluctuation.

The only emotional change that Long You could notice was a hint of bitterness and confusion that flashed in those clear, moonlit eyes.

"Beibei, calm down. I know you're unhappy with the academy's treatment of Tang Ya, but you should know the dangers of evil spirit masters and the academy's attitude towards them."

Indeed, the academy did not explicitly state that it would restrict Tang Ya from leaving the academy, but the academy also did not say that Tang Ya's treatment process had ended.

Whether you accept it or not, Tang Ya will be under observation at the academy for the next five years. This observation period will only end if Tang Ya's condition does not deteriorate during these five years.

Inside the academy, this observation won't affect you, and you might not even notice it. But outside the academy, there will definitely be inner academy students following you.

I know what you're up to. In my opinion, rather than me secretly following you and then misunderstandings arising if I'm discovered, it's better for me to be open and honest from the start, so we're both aware of what's going on.

A senior student from the inner academy, someone Bei Bei knew so well, and whose feelings for Bei Bei were so complicated, and whose surname was Zhang. Long You felt she knew who this was. Long You could feel that her first love, which had not yet blossomed, seemed to be dying at this moment.

It turns out I'm not indifferent to pretty girls, I'm just indifferent to these younger girls who are clearly younger than me in terms of mental age!

That's true, he's a college graduate, how could he possibly still be interested in middle school kids?

Long You and He Caitou didn't participate in Bei Bei's conversation with this senior, and actually, there wasn't much for them to participate in.

Bei Bei felt that Tang Ya had been treated unfairly, but Shrek Academy's concerns were entirely reasonable. Just like people who have been to the palace are always subject to scrutiny, how could a Soul Master with the inclination to become an evil Soul Master not be monitored?

The conversation ended as expected; the senior student was very cooperative, and the college's concerns were undeniable. Therefore, the four-person team will now become a five-person team for the rest of the trip.

"Long You, a core disciple of the Soul Guidance Department, a Level 4 Soul Guidance Master, and a Control-type Soul Master."

"He Caitou, a core disciple of the Soul Guidance System, a Level 4 Soul Master, and a Food-type Soul Master."

"Zhang Lexuan, Martial Soul Moon, Level 79 Power Attack Type Soul Master."

Bei Bei and Tang Ya seemed to be quite familiar with this senior from the inner academy, but Long You and He Caitou were meeting Zhang Lexuan for the first time, so necessary self-introductions were required.

[It really is Zhang Lexuan! I wonder who assigned her this task. Seeing Beibei and Tang Ya so clearly in love every day is just like stabbing Zhang Lexuan in the heart, who's facing a loveless situation.]

As this thought flashed through his mind, a hint of pity flickered in Long You's eyes as he gazed at Zhang Lexuan.

Zhang Lexuan didn't notice this hint of pity, but He Caitou, who was rough around the edges but had a keen eye, probably noticed it unintentionally.

It's getting late. Although I didn't plan to enter the Star Dou Great Forest today, even if I just wanted to stay overnight in a small town on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, I'm a little nervous about driving there now.

Then there's nothing more to say. You can enjoy the scenery anytime, so let's just hop on the flying soul tool and fly.

With a click, the Soul-Guided Power Armor was equipped, and the transformation of Long You and He Caitou really attracted the attention of many students who stayed on campus.

Although soul guidance is not popular at Shrek Academy, and soul tools have little market, soul-guided powered armor is a completely different story from other soul tools. Powerful or not, it's undeniably cool!

Ahem, okay, let's get back to the main topic. Long You and He Caitou flew to the Hunter Town on the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest, enduring Bei Bei's almost tangible envious gaze all the way.

Long You had visited this town before when he obtained his first spirit ring. Almost ten years had passed, and the town hadn't changed much. However, considering that Zhang Lexuan must have visited this town many times, Long You still consulted Zhang Lexuan's opinion. Then, with Zhang Lexuan's guidance, he booked a short-term rental courtyard in an inn in the town.

Everyone ate dinner together, a specialty dish from Hunter Town: soul beast meat. Because Long You kept prompting Zhang Lexuan to talk, the atmosphere at the table wasn't awkward, even though Bei Bei and Tang Ya weren't very willing to talk to Zhang Lexuan.

Perhaps as a return favor, after Bei Bei and Tang Ya went to rest, Zhang Lexuan told Long You that she could help in the process of hunting soul beasts.

"Hehe, that's exactly what we've been waiting for, senior. The three of us have thoroughly tested our physical abilities, and we can absorb a 5,000-year-old soul ring without any problem, so we're planning to target those 7,000-year-old soul beasts."

But as you know, senior, you can still find five-thousand-year-old soul beasts in the mixed area of ​​the middle and outer circles, but it's not easy to find seven-thousand-year-old soul beasts in that mixed area.

"To find a suitable soul beast, we'll probably have to venture into the central area of ​​the Star Dou Great Forest. You know that place better than we do; with our current strength, we're a bit hesitant."
