Douluo Continent: I'm writing a diary, and something's not right with you guys.

Xiao Xiao had just finished registering her bet with the bookmaker and was running back with her storage soul tool in her arms.

The phrase suddenly popped into my head, and I stumbled, almost bumping into the student in front of me.

She steadied herself, secretly glancing back at Lin Ye ahead, her lips twitching involuntarily. 300 gold soul coins and he's still not showing up?

You should know that the monthly academy subsidy for an ordinary student in Shrek Academy's outer court is only a few dozen gold soul coins. 800 gold soul coins are enough for an ordinary soul master family to live comfortably for ten years, yet this guy still complains that it's not enough.

Xiao Xiao rolled her eyes inwardly. She was already used to Lin Ye's occasional Versailles-like remarks, but what's more, he was telling the truth without any exaggeration, which made her feel even more uncomfortable.

Looks like I'll have to find an auction house and sell some soul guide materials to make a few million gold soul coins.

Starry Sky Forest, at the bottom of the Lake of Life.

The three-eyed golden lion in the cage pricked up its three golden eyes, its furry ears stood up instantly, and its little head swayed back and forth, full of curiosity.

Millions of gold soul coins? What are those? That sounds like a huge amount!

Having lived in the Star Dou Great Forest for so long, it only knew that high-quality immortal herbs and soul bones could improve cultivation, and had never come into contact with human currency.

Judging from Lin Ye's tone, this thing must be an extremely valuable treasure in the human world.

It scratched a small hole in the grass with its paws, its three eyes shining brightly, full of longing for the human world.

All he could think about was when he could sneak out and see what those millions of gold soul coins actually looked like.

Ma Xiaotao had already returned to the inner courtyard. She had no interest in the fight between Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi. From her current cultivation level, these new students' fights were like watching children fight or playing house.

As soon as she returned to her room, she saw this sentence in her mind. She raised an eyebrow, leaned back in her chair, and couldn't help but chuckle.

A few million gold soul coins? This kid talks about it so casually, like it's nothing more than buying a cabbage on the street.

Let alone her, even a high-ranking official at the vice-dean level would have to first check the academy's inventory and consider whether it would affect cash flow if they took out several million gold soul coins as working capital.

Only a freak like Lin Ye, who holds a bunch of treasures that even titled Douluo would fight tooth and nail for, could talk about millions of gold soul coins so casually.

She recalled the 100,000-year-old soul bone and god-level cultivation technique that Lin Ye had casually mentioned in his diary, and felt that it didn't seem unreasonable for him to have such a thing, but she still couldn't help feeling a little jealous.

Back then, she had to take on several challenging academy missions to raise money for cultivation materials, which took her a lot of effort.

Unlike Lin Ye, who was so relaxed.

I originally thought that training at Shrek Academy would be a simple routine with no expenses, but it turns out there are all sorts of other costs. It's time to earn some Gold Soul Coins.

Sun Moon Empire Royal Soul Master Academy.

In the dormitory, these words suddenly popped into Orange's mind. She paused in her actions, and a strong sense of interest flashed in her eyes.

She already knew from Lin Ye's diary that this young man possessed soul tool technology far beyond this era, as well as countless rare materials that even the royal family of the Sun Moon Empire rarely saw.

Now, he's just short of pocket money. He can easily earn millions of gold soul coins by selling some scraps. Even a prince of the Sun Moon Empire might not be able to easily match this level of financial resources.

She secretly plotted that if she could get in touch with Lin Ye and exchange some high-grade soul tool materials with him, her soul tool technology, which had been stuck at a bottleneck for a long time, might be able to take a big leap forward.

Also... she needs to find a way to get in touch with Lin Ye.

The far north.

Hyotei sensed the words in his mind and immediately gave a haughty snort.

In her eyes, all these yellow and white things of humankind were nothing more than a pile of useless scrap metal, something only ordinary people would treat as treasures and fight over.

However, she had to admit that Lin Ye's luck was truly heaven-defying. He could obtain a treasure that even she, a 400,000-year-old soul beast, coveted with just a thought and a few lines of text, not to mention these materials that were priceless in the human world.

Snow Empress sensed Ice Empress's agitation and gently soothed her with her divine sense. Her gaze swept over the line of writing, and a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

Having lived for hundreds of thousands of years, she naturally knew what millions of gold soul coins meant.

Chapter 116 Tang Ya: Small cheating doesn't count as cheating, right?

[Hey, what's Tang Ya doing? Is she whispering something to Huo Yuhao?]

Beside the Soul Arena, Tang Ya was holding Huo Yuhao's arm, leaning close to his ear, and whispering in his ear that she would help Bei Bei cheat during the Soul Arena later.

The words suddenly popped into her mind, and her body stiffened abruptly, her cheeks instantly flushing red.

Subconsciously, she looked up and scanned the bustling crowd, accurately catching sight of Lin Ye.

The boy kept his eyes down, seemingly indifferent, and simply followed the crowd forward, without even glancing in her direction.

Tang Ya felt that Lin Ye had already seen through her little schemes, leaving her no room to hide them.

She bit her lower lip, released Huo Yuhao's hand, and subconsciously restrained her movements, muttering something to herself.

This guy seems to know everything. At the same time, she couldn't help but feel a little guilty, since it wasn't exactly honorable for her to have Huo Yuhao help her cheat.

However, for Huo Yuhao's sake, and to obtain the Xuan Shui Pill, cheating was justified.

[Now I remember, this was helping Bei Bei cheat. Huo Yuhao's mental detection is indeed a bug-like skill. With mental detection, it's too easy for Bei Bei to win.]

Unlike Ma Xiaotao, Zhang Lexuan didn't think this was just children playing house. Instead, she wanted to see how good these two geniuses, known as the twin stars of the Foreign Languages ​​Department, really were.

She was standing in the VIP box of the Soul Arena, watching the students who were noisily gathering towards the Soul Arena.

The thought crossed her mind, and she shook her head helplessly.

She knew about Tang Ya and Bei Bei's relationship, and she could guess that given Tang Ya's personality, she would never stand by and watch Bei Bei fight a battle she wasn't sure of winning. Asking Huo Yuhao for help was to be expected.

She just didn't expect that the cheating would be done so openly, with people speaking in hushed tones, so that only two people could hear them.

Any Soul Master with a slightly higher cultivation level could easily hear any sound; their whispered conversation was no less than a loud conspiracy.

Although Tang Ya is the sect leader of the Tang Sect and Huo Yuhao is a precocious genius, they are still too young when it comes to guarding against people. They simply cannot imagine that even if they speak in a low voice, countless people can hear them.

However, to be fair, Huo Yuhao's ability to share his mental detection is indeed almost unbeatable in one-on-one battles between people of the same level.

With this skill, Bei Bei essentially had a god's-eye view throughout, and every move Xu Sanshi made and every movement of his soul power was under his control.

The outcome of this battle of spirits was actually decided the moment Tang Ya approached Huo Yuhao.

Of course, being a "little rich" doesn't count as being a "rich" person. So what if you cheat?

Huo Yuhao is the protagonist, so cheating is naturally not a problem for him.

Furthermore, I recall that the original novel provided relatively reasonable explanations for Huo Yuhao's several instances of cheating.

There's no way around it; if a supporting character cheats, then they have to be severely punished.

But the protagonist could easily get away with cheating by making up any excuse; his subsequent cheating incidents were countless times worse than today's.

The far north.

Hyotei, who had just calmed down, was instantly enraged again upon seeing this sentence and immediately started to complain.

"Look at you, look at you! I told you humans are the most hypocritical people ever! They set the rules, but they never follow them themselves."

They turn a blind eye to things that benefit them, but punish them severely according to the rules when they are not.

They're practically identical to those human Title Douluos who ventured into the far north to hunt soul beasts!

The Snow Empress calmed down the agitated Ice Empress, her voice tinged with a hint of helplessness: "That's just how the world works. The strong are respected, the weak can only follow the rules, and the strong are the rules themselves."

Huo Yuhao is the so-called protagonist, so naturally no one will bother to investigate his petty actions. Even if he does something outrageous, someone will find an excuse to smooth over all the consequences.

[I can't envy that; this is probably just the treatment the protagonist gets.]

Upon seeing this sentence, Ju Zi couldn't help but chuckle. She got up, walked to the window, and looked towards the distant Douluo Continent.

The treatment of the protagonist? In her view, the so-called chosen ones and protagonists of destiny are nothing more than puppets pushed around by fate.

Having grown up amidst the intrigues and power struggles of the royal family, she had long since seen through the ways of the world. She knew that if she wanted something, she could never wait for fate to smile upon her; she had to fight, snatch, and scheme with her own hands.

She envied Lin Ye even more for having this magical diary, which allowed him to obtain a treasure coveted by countless people out of thin air, to see through all future trends, and to avoid all risks in advance.

This ability is the true power to defy fate and the real confidence to hold in one's own hands.

A hint of determination flashed in her eyes.

One day, she will go to Douluo Continent in person to meet this boy named Lin Ye.

However, Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi are known as the twin stars of the outer academy, so their strength is definitely comparable.

Zhang Lexuan nodded when she saw this sentence.

Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi have been compared since they entered Shrek Academy. Their talents are comparable, their cultivation levels are neck and neck, and they have fought each other in private more than once or twice, with each side winning and losing.

Beibei's martial spirit is a combination of offense and defense, with extremely strong explosive power and top-notch control ability. Her fighting style is steady and reliable, and she rarely makes mistakes.

Xu Sanshi's Xuanming Turtle Martial Soul possesses top-tier defensive capabilities on the continent, as well as unexpected explosive power. Once it gets close, even Bei Bei has to avoid its sharp edge.

If the two of them were to fight with all their might and without holding back, it would be really hard to say who would win.

Even without Huo Yuhao helping Bei Bei cheat, I think the final victory would still have gone to Bei Bei.

Xiao Xiao had just squeezed back into the crowd and run to Wang Dong'er's side when she saw the sentence in her mind, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

She had just helped Ning Tian and Wang Dong'er bet a full two thousand gold soul coins on Bei Bei, and she was actually a little apprehensive.

After all, Xu Sanshi's Xuanming Turtle defense was simply too abnormal; among Soul Masters of the same level, very few could actually break through his defense.

But now, seeing Lin Ye's words, she finally felt relieved.

Now, her only worry is whether Tang Ya will still ask Huo Yuhao to help her cheat after seeing the contents of the copy of the diary.

If Huo Yuhao hadn't helped cheat, the outcome of this battle would have been uncertain.

Ning Tian had already squeezed to the very front of the Soul Battle Arena. Looking at Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi, who were standing opposite each other on the stage, this sentence flashed through his mind, and the smile in his eyes deepened.
