My Stubborn Soul Card Follower

Chapter 915: Chapter 535: Tournament Arrangements (4K)_2

This tired little Insect Lady would not easily make a move unless commanded by Shen Sui.

As for Mitole, although she didn’t receive special attention from the world’s consciousness, thanks to the Divinity of the Dragon God, she still retained some skills for clearing the field compared to Qishala.

In order to complete the task in this world and return to her master’s life as soon as possible, Qishala made Mitole the main force.

Mitole indeed completed the task of clearing the path perfectly, but the direction she cleared was slightly off.

However, with the strength of Qishala and the others, nothing unexpected could really happen in this world.

What disappointed Shen Sui slightly was, even though Mitole could kill hundreds of enemies as soon as she made a move, not a single Life Card was obtained for him along the way.

As expected, among Soul Cards, Alice is indeed the most special existence.

Suddenly, Alice felt really adorable.

Of course, Qishala is also very capable.

While Shen Sui was thinking, the doorbell rang.

"Oh? You’re actually opening the door yourself?" Xinyuan Tanchun looked at Shen Sui and blinked.

Shen Sui broke into a cold sweat, "Don’t make it sound like I’m incapable of taking care of myself."

"Hehe ya!" Before Xinyuan Tanchun could speak, a black shadow flew out from her waist directly onto Shen Sui’s chest.

"Long time no see, Isabella," Shen Sui said, looking at the little figure in his hand with a smile.

Isabella giggled, "It hasn’t been that long, I often peep at you from your bedroom window, you know."

"..."

At this, Isabella pouted, "Hmph! If it weren’t for Qishala always showing up when she’s not wanted, I might have gotten in."

"So... if you want to come in, why not just knock on the door?" Shen Sui couldn’t help but retort.

"You wouldn’t understand!" Isabella put her hands on her hips and said earnestly, "Sneaking in at night and coming in during the day feel completely different!"

Saying this, Isabella plopped down on Shen Sui’s shoulder, leaned closer to his ear, and whispered, "I still prefer the thrill. It seems like I can’t sense Qishala’s presence, is she not home today...?"

Shen Sui shivered, but then noticed Xinyuan Tanchun still standing at the door with a slightly awkward smile.

He suddenly remembered that the two had been standing at the door for quite some time, so he quickly brought Xinyuan Tanchun inside.

As there was no maid at home temporarily, Shen Sui grabbed a couple of drinks from the fridge.

Xinyuan Tanchun’s purpose this time was to discuss the upcoming competition schedule with Shen Sui.

It was already February, and there weren’t many class A competitions worthwhile on a global scale.

"Hmm, the main issue is still your documents," Xinyuan Tanchun suddenly mentioned, "To compete abroad, you’d need to have your documents sorted out well in advance, so even if you can participate in class A competitions this month, you can only join those within the country."

"However, the fame of these competitions isn’t that great, and the point scores aren’t very high either," Xinyuan Tanchun glanced at Shen Sui and added, "Personally, I don’t recommend you enter these competitions."

Xinyuan Tanchun knew Shen Sui’s personality.

He indeed loved dueling, but not indiscriminately; he was quite selective about his opponents.

As expected, Shen Sui immediately inquired about the participation of other competitors.

Xinyuan Tanchun had done thorough preparatory research before coming.

Considering Shen Sui easily defeated Guang in the Promotion Tournament, unless someone more extraordinary than Shen Sui appeared, most eighth-rank Life Card Masters were certainly not Shen Sui’s match.

Xinyuan Tanchun could confidently conclude that both the attacker and defender roles could be included here.

Thus, those qualified to be Shen Sui’s opponents were probably the ninth-rank Life Card Masters.

There were many ninth-rank Life Card Masters competing in the national professional arena, but only a few were truly formidable.

You Wenqi is in a semi-retirement state and nearly became a professional firefighter hired by the Exploration Bureau. Whenever a powerful Extraordinary appears, the first one they find is You Wenqi.

Tan Song and An Hai are still actively participating in the arena, but they are all preparing for the Thor Cup in March, which means they won’t be participating in any new competitions in February.

"I see..." Shen Sui pondered before asking, "Come to think of it, I happen to have a Black Card from Valhalla. Could I register for this Thor Cup then?"

"A Black Card?" Xinyuan Tanchun asked with surprise, "Didn’t expect you to have a Black Card. In that case, you can really register."

Previously, Xinyuan Tanchun attempted to apply for Shen Sui in the Thor Cup, even at the pre-selection stage. But without Shen Sui’s fame in the Nordic region, they received a rejection email three days later.

"I’ll handle the registration," Xinyuan Tanchun said, taking the Valhalla Black Card from Shen Sui and added, "You should hurry and process your documents. There’s now a dedicated channel for Life Card Masters heading abroad for competitions."

With that settled, there were no more matters to attend to.

The only thing that disappointed Shen Sui was that he might not have any competitions to participate in the entire February.

But this was a common experience for high-ranking Life Card Masters.

Like in games where the higher the rank, the longer the matchmaking takes; class A competitions are sparse and many have high criteria, just like the Thor Cup where an ordinary eighth-rank Life Card Master can’t even qualify for pre-selection.

As a result, not having competitions for a month or two was relatively normal.

This also gave Shen Sui some free time to sort through the deck he currently had.

Over the past period, Alice had helped him draw quite a few excellent Life Cards, significantly changing the style of many of his decks, requiring reconstruction and testing, which would take some time.

Xinyuan Tanchun had finished discussing the main topic. Due to Isabella’s insistence on sticking around, Xinyuan Tanchun decided to leave Isabella with Shen Sui and got up to say goodbye.

"Oh, by the way," Shen Sui seemed to recall something, pulling a wristband knot from his pocket, "it’s not very safe in the world these days. Keep this on you; it can protect you."

This was something Shen Sui casually took from Vivian’s Alchemy Room. Vivian often made such knots when she was bored.

If you asked how powerful it is, it only carries a magic spell, and it’s a one-time use at that.

But if you say it’s weak, the magic it carries is a Summoning Technique. When the owner of the knot is in danger, pulling it apart or waiting for it to sense danger and break on its own would send a signal to Shen Sui and Vivian, allowing them to locate and warp to the person’s location.

Xinyuan Tanchun’s eyes lit up.

She knew how powerful the Shen family was, and in a critical moment, this wristband could indeed save her life —— although Isabella could already offer her basic protection.

"Well..." Xinyuan Tanchun hesitated before asking, "Are there any spares? I’d like to give one to Xue and Guang."

Shen Sui was taken aback, then smiled, "No problem, consider it your commission fee."

The work Xinyuan Tanchun did for Shen Sui already exceeded the responsibilities of a college coach, so a little compensation was not unreasonable.
