Thanks to Su Mo's generous support, the cultural and entertainment activities in Douluo Continent are now incredibly abundant.
Games that were popular in his previous life, such as Genshin Impact, League of Legends, and Delta Force, were all brought over by Su Mo, and the anime/manga genre flourished under Su Mo's strong support.
While these things may not be very tempting for Soul Masters, they are invaluable spiritual nourishment for ordinary people.
"of course!"
Su Mo nodded. She didn't care what she saw; her main purpose was to help Tang Wulin out of a tight spot.
Of course, I wasn't really trying to help Tang Wulin out of a predicament; it's just that sometimes not answering is more effective than answering.
Xie Xie, that idiot, didn't even consider that at such close range, how could his voice possibly escape the notice of Gu Yue, whose mental strength was extremely high?
Therefore, unless Tang Wulin gives a clear answer, today's events will remain a thorn between Gu Yue and Tang Wulin.
Given Gu Yue's proud nature, how could she possibly tolerate being treated as a backup by a human?
Therefore, Su Mo was very much looking forward to Gu Yue's attitude towards Tang Wulin.
Of course, this can also be seen as Su Mo testing Gu Yue.
If Gu Yue's answer is still unsatisfactory, then the only future option is for her and Tang Wulin to reunite inside her body.
Chapter 65 Invincible Sword God Ye Xinglan!
"See you tomorrow"
On the bustling streets of downtown Donghai, Su Mo, who had already hailed a taxi, stood by the car door waving goodbye to Tang Wulin and the others.
"Su Mo, aren't you going back to school?"
Xu Xiaoyan's face showed a hint of surprise as she watched Su Mo part ways with her group.
"I forgot to tell you, Su Mo lives off-campus."
Xie Xie put his hands behind his head and spoke with some lingering interest.
After hearing Xie Xie's explanation, Xu Xiaoyan's expression of confusion became even more serious, and she asked somewhat blankly, "I remember the academy forbids students from staying overnight outside, right?"
As the only intermediate academy in Donghai City, Donghai Academy has extremely strict management of its students.
Every student, regardless of gender, is required to live in the dormitory upon enrollment.
If Su Mo's talent hadn't been so amazing, Donghai Academy would never have made an exception and allowed Su Mo to live alone outside.
Of course, Donghai College did this not to cultivate students' sense of obedience, but to protect these students.
Because Soul Masters enjoy a very high social status in the Federation, and Donghai Academy is a well-known top-tier academy in Donghai City.
The students enrolled are in the early stages of their youth and are easily led into relationships without fully understanding what's going on. This has attracted the attention of many unscrupulous individuals outside the school.
Back when Donghai College didn't mandate on-campus living, almost every year there would be cases of students becoming parents at the age of twelve.
In order to eliminate this unhealthy trend, Donghai Academy ordered everyone to live on campus.
Xie Xie pouted and said irritably, "How would I know? If you have a problem with that, you can ask the principal!"
Xu Xiaoyan clenched her fists in anger. If she could beat Xie Xie, she really wanted to punch his extremely irritating face.
"I'll leave first!"
Seeing that the driver was already honking his horn to urge them on, Su Mo had no choice but to say goodbye to everyone.
……
As soon as Su Mo got home, a message popped up on his soul communicator.
Invincible Sword God Ye Xinglan: "Log in! Log in!"
Looking at the message sent by Ye Xinglan, Su Mo couldn't help but chuckle.
It's important to know that, thanks to its own efforts, the internet ecosystem of Douluo Continent is now almost as developed as that of Earth.
The atmosphere on the internet is naturally similar to that on Earth, and people like Ye Xinglan who use their real names to go online are as rare as pandas.
Looking back, my acquaintance with Ye Xinglan was quite an accident.
He was playing Monster Hunter when he accidentally pressed the button to send a distress signal, and Ye Xinglan came in without saying a word, carrying his shrimp-head katana.
Originally, Su Mo intended to kick Ye Xinglan, that shrimp-headed swordsman, directly, but Ye Xinglan's skills were just too good, so Su Mo was happy to take it easy.
After the hunt, he had only given Ye Xinglan a polite compliment on her skills, but Ye Xinglan, who was flattered by his praise, took the initiative to add him as a friend, and they have been chatting ever since.
"OK!"
Su Mo quickly edited a message and sent it, then skillfully put on her headphones, turned on her computer, and logged in.
"Tyrannosaurus Warrior, I remember you live in East Sea City, right!"
Just as Su Mo was focused on fighting monsters, Ye Xinglan's soft and sweet voice suddenly came through the voice channel.
Su Mo was taken aback for a moment, not understanding why Ye Xinglan would bring this up for no reason. Then she joked, "What's wrong? Are you here to meet me in person?"
"Uh-huh!"
On the other end of the voice call, Ye Xinglan responded with a few noncommittal "hmm".
Su Mo was somewhat surprised to hear that Ye Xinglan wanted to meet him in person.
I did consider meeting Ye Xinglan back then, after all, I was really curious about what kind of weirdo would use his real name online.
Unfortunately, Ye Xinglan said that her family was too strict and wouldn't let her go out, so Su Mo gave up the idea of meeting in person.
Now that Ye Xinglan had actually brought this up herself, Su Mo couldn't help but feel a little curious. "Wait, didn't your family forbid you from going out recklessly?"
"hey-hey!"
Ye Xinglan chuckled a few times, then said mysteriously, "I recently received a mission that allows me to temporarily travel far away."
"And the place we're going to is Tianhai City, which is right next to your Donghai City."
"Tianhai City, what are you doing there? And why would your family allow you to travel so far?"
Su Mo asked with some curiosity.
Although Ye Xinglan never told me where her home was, judging from her usual behavior, her hometown was most likely located in the most prosperous central region of Douluo Continent.
Even if you take a soul-guided train, it would take at least half a day to reach Tianhai City, the closest city in the central region.
Normally, Ye Xinglan's family would be reluctant to let her go out, so it's really baffling that they're now sending her on a long trip.
Su Mo had some knowledge of Tianhai City, but not much.
All I know is that it's the largest city on the entire East Coast, and the Tianhai Alliance Grand Tournament is held there every year.
As for other aspects, I don't know much about them.
"Hehe, you'll see when the time comes!"
Ye Xinglan deliberately kept everyone in suspense, letting out a burst of silvery laughter, her eyes revealing a hint of excitement.
Just as Su Mo was about to tell the riddle teller to die, she heard an urging voice coming from Ye Xinglan's side, "Hey, little Xinglan, who are you chatting with? Hurry up and take a bath!"
"No! I'm coming right now!"
"Sister Shen is calling me, let's talk later."
After saying those words, Ye Xinglan's profile picture went dark instantly.
Su Mo was already used to seeing Ye Xinglan log off in a hurry.
……
Shrek City, Inner Courtyard Staff Dormitory
Wearing a pale yellow princess dress and with her blonde hair tied in a high ponytail, Ye Xinglan rushed to the bathroom without even putting on her shoes after going offline.
The thought of meeting the Tyrannosaurus Warrior in just one month made Ye Xinglan unable to suppress the smile on her face.
At the bathroom door, Shen Yi, leaning against the wall, watched with a smile as Ye Xinglan rushed over, her face beaming with undisguised excitement. He couldn't help but tease her, "What happened to make our little princess so happy?"
"I'm afraid there won't be enough hot water if I come too late!"
Ye Xinglan stuck out her tongue, lying without batting an eye.
"I think you want to see your boyfriend."
Shen Yi narrowed his eyes, his voice tinged with mockery.
"No way!" Ye Xinglan's face immediately turned red, and her speech quickened. "Sister Shen, don't talk nonsense. Tyrannosaurus Warrior and I are not like that. We are good brothers!"
Fearing that Shen Yi would continue to tease her, Ye Xinglan quickly slipped into the bathroom.
Watching Ye Xinglan flee in disarray, Shen Yi shook his head with a smile.
As Ye Xinglan's mentor, Shen Yi naturally knew that Ye Xinglan had a close online friend with whom she could talk about anything.
However, she had no intention of getting involved; at most, she would keep an eye on things for Ye Xinglan to prevent her from being scammed.
Chapter 66 Tianhai Competition
Xie Xie and Tang Wulin walked into the classroom chatting and laughing in the morning, but the next second they both froze.
Because they saw Su Mo sitting upright in his seat, just like yesterday.
"!!!"
"Damn it, Su Mo, why are you here so early?"
Almost the instant Xie Xie saw Su Mo, he blurted out the answer instinctively.
But as soon as he said that, Xie Xie realized something was wrong. "Wait, why are you in the classroom?"
"Why can't I be in the classroom? Aren't I a student in Class Zero too?"
Su Mo rested her chin on one hand, smiled, and stared at Xie Xie, asking in return.
"No, didn't you used to skip class?"
After being rebuffed by Su Mo, Xie Xie wasn't angry but asked curiously, "Have you changed your personality?"
"It's nothing, I just suddenly felt that it's nice to come to class when I have nothing to do."
Su Mo's tone was very calm, as if he were talking about something extremely insignificant.
