Chapter 47 Fellow Villagers (Please vote and read on!)

The two turned and walked out of the passageway.

When Beibei saw that he agreed, she smiled, her refined and handsome face beaming.

It feels like a gentle spring breeze.

Jiang Shuo, however, felt a faint sadness.

It may be because daughters resemble their mothers and sons resemble their fathers.

The women of the Jiang family are all beautiful, while the men can only be described as heroic and sturdy.

Fortunately, he doesn't rely on his looks to make a living.

As the two walked out of the Soul Battle Zone, they encountered a girl in a light blue outfit who rushed forward.

"Beibei".

As they approached, a hint of wariness appeared on the girl's face.

"You two know each other?"

"We just met, but Junior Jiang's elders and my elders are acquainted." Bei Bei patted the girl's hand, offering a word of comfort.

Perhaps because Jiang Shuo had been too arrogant just now, Tang Ya did not immediately lower her guard.

"It's alright, Junior Jiang is a different person on the fighting stage and off the stage."

"You can think of him as a martial arts fanatic."

Beibei whispered words of comfort to his girlfriend.

Jiang Shuo withdrew his gaze from the young couple and smiled gently.

Perhaps he's just a martial arts fanatic; once he gets into the zone, he feels like he's the best in the world.

But offstage, he'll still be a bit more worldly when it comes to people he's worth befriending.

And naturally, one will be more amiable and approachable towards those who pose no threat.

After a moment, Tang Ya finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked curiously at the boy with his black hair tied up high.

"Is Jiang, the junior, really twelve years old?"

"Doesn't look like it?" Jiang Shuo raised an eyebrow and asked.

Tang Ya pursed her lips, looked her up and down, and shook her head. "That arrogance of yours isn't something a freshman should have, is it?"

"Which freshman would dare to coerce the broadcasting station into issuing such a challenge?"

New students should be cute and well-behaved.

Just like Xiao Yuhao.

However, the boy in front of her was destined to disappoint Tang Ya.

Jiang Shuo chuckled, his face completely indifferent. "Cooperation... never mind. I don't need anyone else's approval."

"You!" Tang Ya was furious and stomped her foot hard.

What an arrogant freshman!

Beibei quickly stepped in to smooth things over.

"Alright, alright, let's find common ground while reserving differences."

"Everyone is a different individual in this world. Junior Jiang has not done anything immoral, nor has anyone been harmed. So we can get to know each other."

"The person I'm meeting will be here soon, shall we go?"

Tang Ya snorted coldly and turned her head away, no longer speaking.

Jiang Shuo had his hands in the pockets of his school uniform.

Beibei walked out of the school.

After passing through the wide East Gate and walking along a bustling food street, the three of them entered a beverage and ice cream parlor.

Upon entering the store, the bright and spacious environment, along with the cool breeze, immediately puts people walking in the sweltering heat at ease.

Beibei led the two up to the second floor and finally stopped in front of a large wooden table near the railing.

Several people were already seated at the table, one of whom was an acquaintance Jiang Shuo had met once before.

Senior student Li Dan.

"Sister Dandan, you're here too?!"

Tang Ya exclaimed in surprise and eagerly sat down next to the female senior with light blonde curly hair.

Li Dan smiled faintly, patted the girl in the tight-fitting clothes on the head, and then looked at the boy with his black hair tied up high with the other two people at the table.

"Junior Jiang."

The female senior student gave a slight bow, and the two men also greeted her.

Beibei then introduced, "You should already know Senior Li."

"The other two are Chen Xia, the young master of the Yuanqing Sect of the Star Luo Empire, and Shi Cun, the only son of the Time Douluo, the city lord of Shrek City."

Jiang Shuo was somewhat surprised.

They are all descendants of prominent families.

Not to mention the city lord of Shrek City, who controls administrative, financial, and military power comparable to that of a country's capital.

This Yuanqing Sect is also quite interesting. It is also an old sect with a reputation dating back ten thousand years.

However, they did not rise to power through military force, but were famous throughout the continent for refining elixirs and forging weapons.

Nowadays, soul tools are so popular that they have overshadowed the sharpness of traditional weapons. However, thousands of years ago, the weapons of the Yuanqing Sect were also renowned throughout the continent. After all, some beast spirits can become much more powerful when they are equipped with suitable weapons.

"Junior Jiang."

Out of respect for Beibei, Shi Cun and Chen Xia bowed to the black-haired boy.

However, their gazes all held a scrutinizing quality.

Talent alone is not enough; without family support, one is not worthy to sit with them.

Jiang Shuo could easily see the subtle meaning behind the two men's smiles.

He chuckled inwardly, pulled out a chair, and plopped down in it.

He nodded slightly to the two of them and said, "I come from the Jiang Clan of Taixu."

"What?!"

"You're from the Taixu Sect?!"

Chen Xia and Shi Cun stood up abruptly in astonishment, their eyes wide with surprise.

I'm currently reading the error-free version! This is the first time I've published this novel.

The hint of indifference at the corner of his mouth vanished instantly.

Did Shrek Academy have any students from the Jiang Clan of the Great Void?

Just as the Body Sect wouldn't send anyone to Shrek Academy, Shrek Academy also couldn't fully understand the Taixu Xuanlong Martial Soul of the Taixu Sect.

After a moment, the astonishment slowly turned into realization.

It doesn't seem to be a Dragon Martial Soul.

That's fine.

However, whether or not they possess a martial spirit is not very important to them.

What matters is talent, where it comes from, and whether it's necessary to make connections with it.

Tang Ya also covered her mouth in astonishment.

He stared blankly at Jiang Shuo.

But she had her pride, which she didn't show as obviously as Shi Cun and Chen Xia.

"No wonder you're so arrogant..."

"So, you're from the Taixu Sect..."

Tang Ya bit her finger, her expression complex.

Li Dan, on the other hand, was relatively calm among the group.

The battle on the Soul Arena was already surprising enough, and my heart's endurance has improved.

However, his eyes also flickered.

Beibei stepped in to ease the tension and acted as a go-between for the two parties.

At his initiative, the others also obliged to chat with Jiang Shuo.

Within minutes, they had become acquainted.

Beibei raised her hand to call over the waiter and, with a smile, introduced the local cuisine to everyone.

The place he chose was perfect for the group of people from all over the country.

The menu not only includes specialties from all over the country, but also caters to those with a lighter palate.

Li Dan raised her beautiful eyes and glanced at the boy next to her, intentionally or unintentionally.

"Speaking of which, Junior Jiang, we're from the same hometown, aren't we?"

"I'm from Qingzhou too."

Jiang Shuo looked up, somewhat surprised, "What a coincidence?"

"Where in Qingzhou?"

"Qingzhou City, the capital of Qingzhou." The female senior twirled her hair with her slender, white fingers, and two shallow dimples appeared on her fair face as she spoke with a smile.

Jiang Shuo smiled; that was indeed a coincidence.

Qingzhou City was built under the orders of the God of the Void, and its layout and architecture are completely different from those on the mainland.

He even chose the name himself.

"I've only been to Qingzhou City once, and I spent most of my time in the governor's mansion. It's a pity that my ancestors spent so much effort building this city."

Upon hearing these words of reflection, Li Dan's eyebrows twitched.

What an understated way of "showing off".

"That's a real pity. The entire Qingzhou City was built by the God of the Void, yet Junior Brother Jiang has never experienced its unique charm."

"Yueyin Tower, Wisteria Mountain, Ten-Mile Peach Blossom Forest, Dragon Ridge Street... there are so many beautiful sights."

"Especially Yueyin Tower, which is located on the shady side of the Canglan River, is not exposed to direct sunlight, but it is exceptionally bright and cool. Climbing to the top, you can enjoy a panoramic view of the river."

"The long Canglan River flows through the entire Qingzhou, and before rushing into the sea, it merges with two other major rivers. That magnificent sight can be seen from Yueyin Tower..."

A look of recollection and shock appeared on Li Dan's pretty face, and everyone else stopped talking and stared at her.

"Junior, when you go to Qingzhou City in the future, I'll show you around."

The female senior came to her senses and looked at Jiang Shuo, who had captured her heart, with her bright eyes.
