Leaving Aolai City

For Nan Fusheng, Lan Yuxi could provide him with protection during his early years. For example, with Lan Yuxi around, he did not have to worry about being sent to an orphanage.

At certain times, he could also put on a double act with Lan Yuxi. However, when he wanted to leave Aolai City, Lan Yuxi instead became an obstacle.

After all, the persona he had crafted for himself was that of an exceptionally filial son. His mother was ill, yet her son never abandoned her. What a touching story.

But if he wanted to attend school in another city, Lan Yuxi would become an obstacle. As a "Marionette," Lan Yuxi had long since died. Leaving her in Aolai City could easily cause trouble, but taking her with him would consume too much of his energy.

That was why he had staged this scene. The reason Zhang Erhe had acted that way was because Nan Fusheng had used his First Soul Skill: Parasitism.

It had influenced his consciousness, and the two passersby had likewise been parasitized to serve as witnesses.

He had also come to understand the power of the Parasitism soul skill. However, it had a certain drawback: when the target was too far away from the Original Body, the influence he could exert would gradually diminish.

Unless he carried out Deep Parasitism, but Nan Fusheng had a premonition that Deep Parasitism was not something he could use yet.

The current result was that Lan Yuxi was dead, and Zhang Erhe was dead as well. All that remained was to let time wash everything away.

Eastsea City.

The Sun Moon Federation's second-largest city on the Eastsea coast. An important port city for maritime transport and marine resource development.

The city had a permanent population of more than three million. Thanks to its use of marine resources, it was very prosperous. Even within the entire Sun Moon Federation, it counted as a second-tier city.

Eastsea City had a long history, and its cityscape still retained an antique style. Over the past several centuries, the Sun Moon Federation had paid particular attention to protecting ancient buildings. Thus, in this ancient city, one could see many structures that were over a thousand years old.

At Eastsea City's Soul Train Station, a dark-blue Soul Train slowly entered the station and decelerated.

On the Eastsea side, nearly all Soul Trains used blue as their primary color.

The train came to a stop, and its doors opened. People streamed off the train, many carrying large amounts of luggage. The station immediately became bustling and lively, with crowds flowing toward the exit.

Nan Fusheng followed the crowd outside and entered this great city. He had come to attend school, to register at Eastsea Academy in Eastsea City.

After resolving the matter with Lan Yuxi, Nan Fusheng ignored the doctor's advice and left the hospital directly. He went to Red Mountain Academy and informed Lin Ximeng that he had become a Spirit Master, successfully obtaining a recommendation letter for Eastsea Academy. At the same time, Nan Fusheng also

After leaving the Soul Train Station, Nan Fusheng strode quickly in one direction.

There was a guard post in that direction, with the words Administrative Enforcement written on it.

Two uniformed enforcement officers were inside the guard post. Nan Fusheng walked up to them and said, "Hello, Officer. Where is Eastsea Academy's shuttle bus?"

As a famous academy in Eastsea City, Eastsea Academy sent shuttle buses to the station to pick people up every year during enrollment. As long as he found the shuttle bus, he would be able to reach the academy without trouble.

One of the enforcement officers pointed into the distance. "Over there. Kid, where are your parents?"

Nan Fusheng shook his head. "Thank you, Officer." With that, he turned and ran in the direction the officer had pointed.

Sure enough, after passing through the crowd, he saw a white sign with blue lettering standing there. It bore four large words: Eastsea Academy.

There were tables and chairs beneath the sign, with several young men and women in blue tracksuits seated behind them. They looked around seventeen or eighteen years old.

When she saw Nan Fusheng approach, a black-haired girl smiled at him. "Little brother, are you here to register?"

The black-haired girl had phoenix eyes, a well-proportioned figure, and sweet features. She had a very approachable air about her.

"Hello, Senior Sister. My name is Nan Fusheng, and I'm here to register," Nan Fusheng said politely.

"Hello, I'm Liu Yuxin from Grade One of Eastsea Academy's Senior Academy. I'm in charge of receiving new students this time, so I'm your senior sister. Come, fill out this form first, then show me your Primary Academy recommendation letter."

Liu Yuxin handed a form to Nan Fusheng.

As Liu Yuxin watched Nan Fusheng fill out the form, she could not help reading it aloud. "Nan Fusheng, nine years old, graduated from Red Mountain Primary Academy in Aolai City. Level twelve Control System Spirit Master. Martial Soul: Time Worm? Huh, Junior Brother, I've never heard of your Martial Soul before."

"Yes, Senior Sister. For certain reasons, my Martial Soul mutated when it fused with a Soul Spirit." Nan Fusheng nodded. His Martial Soul's mutation was groundwork he had laid for the possibility that his Soul Power might rise rapidly in the future. After all, if he wanted to stay by Tang Wulin's side, he needed at least some talent.

"Is that so? Then it looks like it was a beneficial mutation. You really are a lucky little Junior Brother."

Liu Yuxin was beautiful and elegant. Her fitted blue tracksuit suited her well, her medium-length hair was tied into a neat ponytail, and she had fair skin and a slender neck.

Combined with the sincerity in her expression when she said those words, as though she were truly happy for Nan Fusheng, she made it easy for others to feel favorably toward her.

Even Nan Fusheng nearly could not resist using Parasitism on this Senior Sister before him. However, he quickly calmed down. "Thank you, Senior Sister."

Liu Yuxin looked over Nan Fusheng's academy recommendation letter, stamped it, and returned it to him. Then she handed him a small metal tag.

"Hang this metal tag around your neck. It serves as proof that you can enter and leave the academy before enrollment. Once you arrive at the academy, you'll still need to register and collect your supplies. Board the Soul Tool Bus behind you. Once there are a few more people, it will take you to the academy."

Nan Fusheng thanked her again, slung his luggage over his back, and strode toward the bus.

Eastsea Academy's bus was very spacious, enough to hold fifty people. There were already some people aboard, including children his age and adults. Clearly, some parents had accompanied their children to register at the academy.

He sat by the window and looked at the unfamiliar city outside. This would be his starting point. How far he could go would depend on whether he could seize the opportunities ahead.

Nan Fusheng sat on the bus for quite a while.

At last, the bus started moving.

The scenery outside the window shifted. Shops lined the streets, and vehicles passed endlessly by. The city seemed filled with the scent of steel and an urgent atmosphere. Everyone on the streets appeared busy, at least countless times busier than those in Aolai City.

Tall buildings slid past the windows. After driving for more than twenty minutes, the bus stopped beside a high wall.

"We've arrived at the academy. Please get off the bus, everyone." A familiar voice came from the front. Only then did Nan Fusheng notice that Senior Sister Liu Yuxin was seated at the very front. She stood and called to the students who had come to register, as well as their parents.

Nan Fusheng grabbed his bag and got off the bus in one smooth motion, then followed Liu Yuxin's directions.
