Arrival at Heaven Dou City, Defeating the First Opponent
Outside the window, a series of low rumbling sounds rang out as Mecha approached.
The authorities sent a Mecha team to provide support, but by the time they arrived, the battle was already over.
After the official Mecha found that the train was unharmed, they quickly left.
"Sister Mo Lan, could I borrow some money? To be honest, I sneaked into the carriage this time because Shrek Academy's Final Exam requirement is that we can't bring anything!"
After the terrorist incident was completely resolved, the train set off again.
In the Train Conductor's office, Long Yuan and Mo Lan explained their needs.
He needed a lot of money and needed to travel to ten cities. He hoped the other party could do him a favor and he would repay them after returning to the Shrek Academy.
"You little brat..."
Mo Lan covered her face, her expression one of shock.
Tickets are checked on the train. If someone tries to ride the train without paying, you either have to make them buy a ticket or get them off the train.
Even if you can't get off the train midway, you still have to find a way to buy a ticket when you reach the final stop.
If someone doesn't have the money to buy a replacement ticket, the matter is usually handled by the relevant authorities.
Unexpectedly, Long Yuan was the kind of person they hated most—the one who would hitch a ride.
"Sister Mo Lan, I'm really sorry, Shrek Academy's Final Exam are just too insane."
Seeing Mo Lan's surprise, Long Yuan scratched his head, looking embarrassed.
Then, he explained his needs in detail again.
"No problem, I'll help you. You just need to travel to ten cities, right? I'll figure something out for you."
"You're looking for Soul Master? I can also ask the security captains at each train station. They're all Soul Master, you know. But are you sure you want to fight them? They're all very powerful!"
"Okay, then I'll have to trouble you, Sister Mo Lan!"
Long Yuan was very happy that Mo Lan was willing to help him, as it would save him a lot of trouble.
"Please wait a moment, I'll process it for you!"
Mo Lan told Long Yuan to rest for a bit, then she left the office and began instructing her subordinates to get busy.
After some time, Mo Lan returned to the office.
"Long Yuan, I've already made arrangements for you. The security captain will be waiting for you at the Heaven Dou City train station. I've also arranged a one-month All-Alliance Soul Guidance Train Pass for you. With this pass, you can ride any train at any time."
He silently handed Long Yuan a train ticket, and then took out some money and gave it to Long Yuan.
"Take this money, buy food on the way!"
The money exceeded 20,000 Federal Coins.
'Thank you so much, Sister Mo Lan!' 'You're welcome, you deserve it!'
After that, Long Yuan chatted with Mo Lan, and before they knew it, the train arrived at Heaven Dou City Station.
"Long Yuan, you are our little hero! I'll contact headquarters and get you a commendation and award!"
When they arrived at the station, Mo Lan saw Long Yuan off the train and said something.
"No, no need, it's just a small favor, and there's no time to spare!"
What happened before was just a small favor; he's really leaving now.
"You..."
Mo Lan was stunned for a moment, not expecting that Long Yuan would release his Martial Soul and flee from here.
"Wait, how about this? You don't need the reward, but consider the 20,000 Federal Coins as a bonus. You don't need to pay it back!"
Mo Lan quickly caught up and shouted loudly.
"OK!"
Long Yuan didn't hesitate and readily agreed.
"How about we grab something to eat before we go, since it's lunchtime?"
Mo Lan stepped forward again and continued, "After dinner, I'll arrange a sparring match for you!"
"Okay, fine!"
When he heard Mo Lan mention dinner, Long Yuan looked at the sky and realized it was getting late, and he was also hungry.
I might as well eat a little.
An hour later, Long Yuan sat in the station canteen and ate two-thirds of the meal prepared for the staff.
The cafeteria ladies and Mo Lan were dumbfounded.
"Little guy, you can eat way too much!" Mo Lan exclaimed, looking at Long Yuan as if he were a Little Monster, and continued, "Do all Soul Master eat this much? Wait a minute, the security captain is also Soul Master, and he can only eat one bowl of rice. Where are you going to put all that food?"
Mo Lan was merely surprised and did not intend to blame Long Yuan.
The cafeteria worker came over, looked at Long Yuan, and said, "Young man, is it delicious?"
"Tasty!"
Long Yuan scratched his head and said embarrassedly:
"I've always had a big appetite since I was a child. I feel like there's a dragon living in my stomach, and I can eat a whole cow in one meal!"
After saying that, he glanced at Mo Lan, then at the kitchen aunt, and then buried his head in his food.
He had used the Golden Dragon Claw technique on the train, which had greatly depleted his energy and made him very hungry.
"Hmm, not bad, not bad, young man. Everyone thinks my cooking is terrible, but I didn't expect you to eat so much."
So it seems it's not that the aunt's cooking is bad, it's that they're too picky! Humph!
After the kitchen auntie finished speaking, she glanced at the security guards outside, snorted coldly, and then went back to her work.
Mo Lan couldn't help but cover her mouth and giggle, her delicate body trembling with laughter.
"Long Yuan, let me introduce you. This is Wu Peng, the security captain of Heaven Dou City Station. He's a level 57 Soul King. Are you sure you want to spar with him?"
After Long Yuan had eaten and drunk his fill, Mo Lan took Long Yuan to find Wu Peng, the security captain of Heaven Dou City Station.
She had spoken with the other party before and explained the situation.
The other party agreed to spar with Long Yuan.
"Little guy, are you that little hero? You're amazing, I admire you."
"Come on, it's just a fight, and you beat me? We'll just have to go through the motions!"
As he spoke, Wu Peng looked at Long Yuan with a surprised expression.
He shook hands tightly with Long Yuan.
Unexpectedly, at such a young age, he has reached the Soul King realm. He truly deserves to be a member of the Shrek Academy.
"We can't just spar casually, big brother. I need to truly defeat you before I can consider myself to have passed my Final Exam!"
Upon hearing Wu Peng's words, Long Yuan quickly offered an explanation.
He sensed that his teacher, Shen Yi, had been secretly watching him all along.
"Ah, there's no one here to supervise you, so feel free to spar with me!"
Wu Peng really didn't want to fight Long Yuan, after all, he was the hero who solved this terrorist incident.
"Big brother, my teacher has been secretly watching me all along!"
Long Yuan walked to Wu Peng's side and whispered.
"Oh, I see. Let's begin!"
After learning about the situation, Wu Peng agreed to Long Yuan's request.
He was a level 57 Soul King, Long Yuan was level 52, a difference of exactly five levels, which met the requirements for defeating him.
After explaining the situation, they greeted each other and then began to spar.
It was a brutal war from the very beginning.
Before long, Wu Peng was completely defeated by Long Yuan.
The entire process was watched by Shen Yi from the shadows.
"Not bad, not bad, young man. As expected of a little hero from the Shrek Academy, I was clearly five levels higher than you, yet I lost to you. I admire you, I admire you!"
After being defeated, Wu Peng looked embarrassed and clasped his hands in a fist salute to Long Yuan.
"Thank you so much for your kindness, brother!"
Long Yuan clasped his hands in thanks, and at this point, Long Yuan felt that was enough.
"Sister Mo Lan, I'll have to handle the rest myself. There might not be enough time, so I won't trouble you with the arrangements. Thank you very much!"
Long Yuan clasped his hands in thanks and shared his thoughts.
He felt embarrassed to trouble Sister Mo Lan any further with the Soul Master from other cities.
"Okay, if you need anything, just tell my sister. This is my contact number!"
As she spoke, Mo Lan handed Long Yuan a business card, revealing a bright smile.
At the same time, a look of shame appeared on her face. After all, Long Yuan was a great contributor this time and had helped her a lot.
She didn't repay Long Yuan much, and Long Yuan was about to leave without asking her for any further help.
"Okay, thank you, Sister Mo Lan, goodbye!"
Long Yuan and Mo Lan waved goodbye and quickly walked out of the station, heading towards the Heaven Dou City Forging Masters Association.
Although he had previously evaded paying for the train, he had still caused trouble for the station and made a contribution. He no longer felt guilty about his previous bad behavior!
He needs to earn some money first before continuing with his plans.
He's a big eater; a single meal costs him a lot of money, and without money, he can't move an inch.
Even if Mo Lan gave him 20,000 Federal Coins, it would still be far from enough for his expenses.
