Shen Sui looked at Xinyuan Tanchun.
Xinyuan Tanchun looked at Shen Sui.
"So," Shen Sui said exasperatedly, "you're not setting up another match for , are you? I'm already so busy..."
Xinyuan Tanchun replied irritably, "Co on, besides ssing around with your new girlfriend these days, do you even have anything going on?"
Shen Sui was montarily speechless.
It seems... he really had been a bit too reckless lately.
He hadn't left the dormitory for almost three days.
This wasn't his fault; it was all because Freymia was too tempting.
Unlike the demure and shy Qishala, Freymia was open to any kind of play. She even whispered mischievously that she could use magic to transform into Vivian...
Aaaargh~!
Shen Sui suddenly felt a rush of impulse again.
Xinyuan Tanchun narrowed her eyes, staring intently at Shen Sui.
Shen Sui coughed twice and said, "It's just that there were too many duels a few days ago, so I thought to take a good break."
"You're tired after just two overlapping events? You really haven't experienced the hardship of climbing the ranks." Xinyuan Tanchun teased.
Not long ago, Xinyuan Tanchun finally defeated the Promotion Tournant with the help of a large number of Life Cards from Isabella. Now, Xinyuan Tanchun was a seventh-tier Life Card Master.
When it cos to climbing ranks, she really had so authority to speak.
Outside the classroom window, the incredibly spacious campus of Tianyi Academy was very quiet, almost empty.
Even an entire class of students couldn't possibly fill such a massive Duel Academy.
The new Academy PK Tournant was about to start, with most students bouncing between the Duel Hall and the Life Card Store, striving to perform well in the new PK Tournant and successfully qualify for the Ranking Tournant.
Earlier this month, the Ranking Tournant underwent another reform, expanding the number of slots available. Theoretically, as long as you don't lose too badly, you have a chance to enter the Ranking Tournant.
"Who knows what kind of madness they're up to up there." Xinyuan Tanchun felt a bit anxious, "With so many slots open, won't the competitions beco even more intense? Are there really that many tournants to accommodate so many professional Life Card Masters?"
"They're just increasing slots, the number of people passing the Ranking Tournant is still about the sa." Shen Sui casually reassured her, though he knew the expansion was entirely due to the pressure from the Extraordinary Power invasion.
Although people in the real world didn't know about Suffering Bodhisattva's forr arrival, after fighting with the Suffering Poetry Society, the Exploration Bureau was well aware of the terror of such Extraordinary Power.
However, Shen Sui was almost certain that while guarding against the Extraordinary Power invasion, they were also researching how to harness Extraordinary Power.
Unfortunately, Vivian's arrival last ti had essentially set the tone for this world; even if the so-called Extraordinary Power existed, it could basically only be exercised through duels.
In Vivian's words, this world was really just an amusent park she created specifically for Shen Sui.
Speaking of which, did Vivian really not send any ssages after going back?
Shen Sui glanced at his phone.
Vivian's Candlelight Illusion had two modes.
In automatic mode, her Candlelight Illusion would act freely within a set character and range defined by Vivian.
In manual mode, Vivian would control it directly.
Vivian was probably not replying to him because she switched An Wei's phantom to automatic mode. Shen Sui saw from the news yesterday that this fellow even went to challenge the Hang City Exploration Bureau, planning sothing nefarious against their card library.
Character-wise, Vivian was actually quite similar to Alice.
That's probably why Shen Sui felt a sense of familiarity from Alice.
However, while Alice stirred things up passively and not always intentionally, Vivian often actively sought to stir up trouble.
Who knows what Vivian was encountering now, Shen Sui thought.
Oh right, Vivian seed to have asked to handle so affairs in World No. 6 before...
Shen Sui suddenly rembered.
"Hey, did you even hear what I said?" Xinyuan Tanchun's sowhat angry voice ca through.
Shen Sui snapped back to reality.
Xinyuan Tanchun said irritably, "Though many people's lives beco a bit debaucherous after gaining fa, you can't sink so fast! At least achieve sothing, one Modu Duel Tournant championship isn't enough to make you collapse in popularity."
"What are you talking about, what are you saying?" Shen Sui cried out innocently, "Do you see as soone who's that easily fallen?"
Xinyuan Tanchun stared at Shen Sui, not saying a word.
Uh...
Shen Sui felt a bit guilty.
It's true, he was quite easily led astray.
He had no resistance to girl cards.
In his past life, calling girl cards wifey was also the norm.
Especially when the girl card happened to align with his fondness, he found it even harder to resist temptation.
Xinyuan Tanchun sighed and finally revealed why she called Shen Sui over: "There's a smaller tournant coming up, not big, not well-known, but offers a lot of points. Interested in participating?"
"What tournant?" Shen Sui asked curiously.
If there are many points, then there will be many Life Card Masters participating. Logically, the event should be quite well-known.
"It's not entirely accurate to say it's not well-known. Within the professional life card circles, it does have so recognition, but this competition is not open to the public, so its public recognition isn't very high. However, due to its high level of professionalism, it has earned a lot of points," Xinyuan Tanchun said. "Not everyone can participate; participants need a recomndation to join, and all Life Card Masters may only participate once."
As he spoke, Xinyuan Tanchun handed a card to Shen Sui.
Shen Sui took a look at the card.
Dueling Enthusiasts' Gala.
A na that doesn't quite sound like a competition.
"This competition has been around since the Life Card Duel started becoming popular. It was created by a group of duel enthusiasts as a fun event for self-entertainnt," Xinyuan Tanchun explained. "It's held in mid-October each year, only Life Card Masters between the fifth and seventh rank can participate, and they must have a recomndation letter from a ninth-rank Life Card Master...."
"Wait! Recomndation letter from a ninth-rank Life Card Master?" Shen Sui looked at Xinyuan Tanchun suspiciously. "You have one?"
Xinyuan Tanchun glared at Shen Sui and said, "I don't. I didn't even know such a competition existed before."
"Huh?"
"I was entrusted by soone," Xinyuan Tanchun said.
"Among the people I know... is there a ninth-rank Life Card Master?" Shen Sui instinctively recalled.
"Exploration Bureau," Xinyuan Tanchun reminded.
"Zhang Fang?" Shen Sui was taken aback.
Zhang Fang, the head of the Huaxia Exploration Bureau, was officially a ninth-rank Life Card Master who dominated dostic competitions before retiring and joining the bureau.
"Retired people still count, huh."
"People retire, but their rank doesn't. So, are you going to participate?" Xinyuan Tanchun said, "Those attending the gala are all promising juniors endorsed by various ninth-rank Life Card Masters."
"I can't miss this," Shen Sui's eyes sparkled with intense battle spirit, "How many matches are there in total?"
"The format is similar to the Academy PK tournant," Xinyuan Tanchun said, "Participants can freely choose their opponents, and final rankings are based on the number of wins, which will be used to allocate points."
"Now that's interesting," Shen Sui said with great interest, "I should go take a look."
Ninth-rank Life Card Masters wouldn't risk their reputation by casually recomnding Life Card Masters for such an event. Those who can participate in this competition are undoubtedly outstanding among the dostic new generation of Life Card Masters.
Shen Sui loves duel competitions filled with strong opponents.
"You should be careful," Xinyuan Tanchun said with a smile, "My sister also got a recomndation letter."
Although it was orchestrated by that woman.
However, if Xinyuan Yingxue didn't have enough strength, no ninth-rank Life Card Master would be willing to stake their reputation.
"What? Do you want to give your sister a good beating?" Shen Sui said half-jokingly.
"Make sure to do that in an official public competition," Xinyuan Tanchun said, wrinkling his nose, "Give her a harsh lesson so that my foolish and naive sister can see that woman's true nature."
It seems that Xinyuan Tanchun still harbors deep resentnt towards her mother.
Looking at the date on the card, the Dueling Enthusiasts' Gala is set for the night after tomorrow at No. 13 Moonlight Road.
Moonlight Road seems to be in the villa area of Modu.
Shen Sui rembers clearly because he had his eyes on a very good standalone villa over there, planning to use Space Magic for renovation to ensure his own soul cards can live comfortably.
It might even allow Qishala to fully unfold her dragon form.
Hehe, Qishala in dragon form, half-dragon form, and human form, I want them all!
"So, are you going the day after tomorrow?"
"I'm not qualified to go," Xinyuan Tanchun shrugged, "but I can take you and my sister there. She should arrive tomorrow."
"Is her Soul Card's emotional issue resolved?"
"Don't even ntion it," Xinyuan Tanchun said irritably, "I feel like my sister is about to fall in love with her Soul Card's partner. Several tis she told that guy is so responsible, an extraordinary good man, and so on."
This...
Shen Sui couldn't comnt, as he wasn't very familiar with Lin Zhen either.
However, he's certainly a good person; otherwise, he would have started a killing spree in Modu by now to avenge Feng Lindu's wrongdoing.
Hopefully, you won't stir up any lodramatic plot twists, Comrade Lin Zhen.
After parting with Xinyuan Tanchun, Shen Sui didn't imdiately return to his dorm but went to the package receiving point.
Freymia bought a lot of nightwear online, which required Shen Sui to pick them up.
Just as Shen Sui was carrying a big load of packages towards the dorm, his phone rang.
Shen Sui found a hidden corner, holding over a dozen packages with one hand, and answered the phone with the other.
"It's , An Hai." The voice of An Hai ca from the other end.
"What's up?" Shen Sui cut to the chase.
"There's a dueling gala the day after tomorrow, are you interested in attending?" An Hai asked.
"Dueling Enthusiasts' Gala?" Shen Sui was surprised, "This gala requires a ninth-rank Life Card Master's recomndation letter, right?"
"Yes, that's why I'm asking if you're interested. I'll write a recomndation letter for you."
"??? You're ninth rank already?"
"I just passed the Promotion Tournant the day before yesterday," An Hai's voice was calm, "That guy Tan Song is indeed very strong, but I still won."
