Eastsea City

Douluo Continent

Glorybound City

Fan Lin was reading the newspaper in the train.

{Another mass killing in the Glorybound City. The people who died this time were from the security and defence department. The killer still hasn't been caught but the people are linking the case to the child killer.}

He recalled his time in the Glorybound City once more as the soul train sped up in top speed.

He remembered the time when he began killing again after his first time. He was planning on stopping. He even did nothing related to killings until he had enough.

Fan Lin wasn't a kid, he knew of the dark side of the Glorybound Town and he also knew of the things that seem to happen in the darkness. Things just lead him to one another and before he knew it, he had already killed multiple people in different ways.

He slaughtered many human trafficking groups and burnt their bases.

He boiled a few small time leader of Beggars mafia.

And his last killing was the one where he killed a squad of the defence and security department. It was also the one that was currently in the news all around the Skysea Alliance.

It felt like he had made a habit of killing once every three to four months but he didn't. He just killed whenever he had enough, when he couldn't control his anger or emotions.

He was basically a time bomb.

He then met someone who looked a lot like his mother and granted her last wishes.

He also collected a lot of money. 9 millions to be precise.

He had concocted a lot of poisons and medicines from his past life but this also made him realise that his memories were incomplete.

He now possessed enough poison to lay dead the whole Glorybound City but his self control was on point.

Now three years has passed since he joined his elementary schooling and he had already graduated from the Red Mountain Academy.

According to the regulations set by the Sun Moon Federation, elementary and intermediate academies had free tuition and were compulsory. Elementary academy was three years while the intermediate academy was six years long. There were several ways to enter an advanced academy: outstanding achievements, paying an exceedingly expensive tuition, or entering an academy of science and specializing in a field of study.

Now he was going to attend to East Sea Academy, if he got admitted.

"I am currently rank 10 due to my deep meditation that I did all the time. A good thing that I can reach my dead calm state anytime I wanted due to my past."

"But my martial soul was Blue Silver Grass and its cultivation speed dropped as his cultivation progresses."

"A lot of things happened in the past years, who would have thought that the stone where I engraved my oath to remind me of the right path turned into a prophecy of a new cult. I even gave that old woman who looked like my mother a translation to deter the people from thinking stupid things but it backfired."

"I don't have any financial problems due to the fact that I was replenishing my money from others but how long do I need to continue? I need to find a stable way of earning or I should join an organisation for now. But most importantly, I should get a spirit soul for myself, without it, I am just a random bystander in this stupidly weird world where there are a lot of idiots who are insanely strong and what I want to do requires me to be one of them."

He gently folded the newspaper and put it aside. The journey to the Glorybound City to the Eastsea City was long and time consuming.

He decided to enter deep meditation. His cultivation wouldn't progress as he was at a bottleneck but it would add later on when the bottleneck disappears.

A few hours later, he stop his cultivation and looked at the time.

'A few more minutes and I will reach the Eastsea Academy.'

'Having a calm mind is necessary for all the activities except rigorous ones that involve the lower body– By Altruist.'

"Hahahaha." Fan Lin suddenly burst into laughter after he remembered a past joke. All the people on the train were looking at him weirdly but as always he chose to ignore them.

Soon an announcement was announced and the train stopped at a station a minute later.

He silently left the soul station in the weird eyes of the people.

...

The city was beautiful. It reminds him of his country, mainly the tight filled roads full of people. The cramped up situation where you don't even know whose hands you are touching( or if it really is a hand). That annoyingly exciting experience, he enjoyed it after a long time and then began to hate it after the first minute.

Eastsea City.

It was the second largest seaside city in the Sun-Moon Federation. Its main feature was its port, which served as a nexus for travelling the seas and exploiting the resources of the ocean.

The city had a population of over three million people. By exploiting the natural resources in the ocean, the city was able to prosper. Even when compared to the rest of the Sun-Moon Federation, it could still be considered a second-tier city.

Eastsea City had a long history and its overall appearance had preserved its original state of a simple and unadorned style. In the last several hundred years, the Sun-Moon Federation had taken extra care to protect some of the more ancient buildings. Thus, many of the millennia old buildings could be found in this ancient city.

Eastsea City soul train station.

A dark blue soul train slowly entered the station and came to a stop.

In Eastsea City, nearly all of the soul trains were blue in color.

After coming to a stop, the train's doors opened up, letting the people onboard off. Many people greeted each other but after a moment, the station returned to its usual hustle and bustle as people headed towards the exit.

Fan Lin was waiting for someone while was in front of the sign: Eastsea Soul Train Station.

He surveyed his surroundings. Reflected in his eyes was a wide street with many skyscrapers off in the distance. All kinds of soul cars could be seen on the streets as they constantly sped about. The stream of people was simply bustling with activity. This all combined together to give one a feeling of constriction.

Sometime later, he saw Tang Wulin came through the bustling crowd, his handsome and delicate features could be easily sighted from far away.

Fan Lin squinted his eyes and then turned around to head to the direction of the Administrative Law Enforcement building.

It was the same building that the protagonist, Wulin, used to ask for directions.

Once he reached the tower, he asked to the two officers in uniform as he neared the tower, "Hello uncle police officers. Can you tell me where the regular bus to the Eastsea Academy is?"

For the famous Eastsea Academy, every year around registration time, there would be regular buses near the train station that would take students to the academy. As long as he found the bus, he would be able to go to the academy without a hitch.

One of the officers pointed to a location not too far away and said, "It's right over there. Child, where's your family?"

Fan Lin smiled towards them and said," I am an orphan, kind sir. Can you tell me the direction of the Spirit Pagoda as well?"

The guards looked at the boy in front of them and felt a little guilty," Just go straight from here and take that blue bus and you will reach the Spirit Pagoda."

Fan Lin looked at the direction that they pointed and thanked the guards.

Eastsea Academy had a small requirement to admit students.

The student needs to be a Spirit Master (rank 11-20) at the least to be admitted in it.

Fan Lin was a Rank 10 Spirit Scholar and needed a spirit ring to advance to the next rank.

And that's why he was going to the Spirit Pagoda first to get a suitable spirit soul for him and then join the Eastsea Academy.

He had no particular or specific school he wanted to go so he just decided to stay with the protagonist.
