Shen Sui accepted the task.

Although he still seemed unclear about the mission's objective.

But the desire for a big house, where Qishala could stretch her body, could no longer be suppressed.

Many people would be moving in later.

Just Vivian's artifact room would need a large basement, so Shen Sui had to plan early.

However, for this kind of search task, if limited to Alice's perspective, Shen Sui might never be able to complete it in his lifetime. It's better to leave it to Freymia and Qishala. Although the Elf Race and Dragon Race had withdrawn from the continent, there were still a few agencies on the continent serving as intelligence gathering points. The only problem was that the information was too vague to make precise descriptions.

"Speaking of which." Shen Sui straightforwardly took over the mission and curiously looked at Wang Ming, asking, "Previously, seeing Ye Qing and the others' appearances, did something happen at the Modu Duel Tournament?"

Wang Ming glanced at Shen Sui.

He weighed the pros and cons of telling Shen Sui about the matter.

The Suffering Poetry Society might target the Modu Duel Tournament for an attack, but this was just conjecture by the Exploration Bureau's higher-ups due to the Society's recent subdued activities. If Shen Sui publicized this, it would definitely cause panic.

However, after so many collaborations, Wang Ming still trusted Shen Sui's ability to keep secrets.

After much consideration, knowing that Shen Sui was also a participant in this tournament, Wang Ming spoke up about the Exploration Bureau's suspicions, hoping Shen Sui could provide some useful clues.

This put Shen Sui in a bit of a dilemma.

When he played cards, he was always fully focused, never minding the outside details.

"Our guess is that the other party is also among the contestants," Wang Ming said.

"But, aren't the remaining contestants all relatively famous players?" Shen Sui said, "Are you saying there's a member of the Suffering Poetry Society among them?"

Wang Ming thought for a moment and replied, "That possibility can't be ruled out."

Shen Sui spread his hands and said, "Then my lead is worthless because all my opponents have already been eliminated by me, naturally unable to cause any attack incidents. Besides...."

Wang Ming asked anxiously, "Besides what?"

"Besides," Shen Sui pondered while stroking his chin, "my opponents, during duels with me, had almost the same expression, and I couldn't tell any difference."

Similar expressions...

Wang Ming's mouth twitched, thinking of all the ruthless tricks Shen Sui pulled during duels, frequently stripping his opponents' right to play, leading to almost the same expressions from most of his foes.

"In any case, just keep an eye out," Wang Ming said, troubled, "We might have guessed wrong, or maybe the opponent was too weak and got eliminated early, stopping the Suffering Poetry Society's plan."

Of course, there's also a possibility that among the existing eight Life Card Master contestants, there could be a member of the Suffering Poetry Society.

But just looking at the surface, nothing could be discerned.

Does it mean waiting for them to slip up? Damn it!

Much like his personal dueling style, Wang Ming generally disliked passive defense, as it was quite stifling.

"Speaking of which, do you still remember what the person you dueled with looked like?" Shen Sui turned to Yue Tao, bringing the topic back to him.

Targeting the Dawn Continent was no longer just a simple crime; heavy measures were needed.

The Exploration Bureau only asked Shen Sui to investigate the Soul Cards of the Dawn Continent, but Shen Sui wanted to know more.

He was curious why powerhouses from World No. 8 were so interested in World No. 1.

Apart from both being part of the Fantasy World, they seemed to have no other similarities!

"Now that business is done." Wang Ming breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Let's talk about personal matters next."

"Personal matters? What personal matters? Are we that close?" Shen Sui asked, puzzled.

Wang Ming clenched his fists and said angrily, "Stop talking nonsense! Tell me! What's up with that maid in your room? Be careful, or I'll report you to the academy for bringing outsiders into the dorm!"

"Eh? Is there a rule against outsiders entering the dorms?" Shen Sui asked, confused.

"No, but there's a rule against outsiders staying overnight in student dorms," Wang Ming glanced at Shen Sui and added through gritted teeth, "Over! Night!"

"Oh, it's all a misunderstanding." Shen Sui spread his hands, "I met her playing cards."

"Impossible!" Wang Ming and Yue Tao said almost simultaneously.

Shen Sui looked at the two, puzzled.

Yue Tao stroked his chin, analyzing meticulously, "How can dueling develop into opposite-sex relationships!"

Wang Ming also nodded affirmatively, "Right, it only develops into same-sex relationships."

Both Shen Sui and Yue Tao looked at Wang Ming in horror.

Wang Ming was stunned, only then realizing that his words were filled with ambiguity:

"Damn it, that's not what I meant!"

But to no avail, the two's perceptions of Wang Ming had already changed.

Though Yue Tao's body hadn't really been hurt, his main damage was on the mental level.

While they said it was healed, matters of the mind are unpredictable, so short-term hospitalization and observation were still needed.

Shen Sui refused Wang Ming's protective proposal again and left the hospital on his own.

Could there be members of the Suffering Poetry Society present at the Modu Duel Tournament?

Shen Sui's mind reviewed the remaining contestants.

Himself and Xinyuan Tanchun.

Yang Liguang.

Xu Tianzhi.

And each of their opponents.

Eliminating himself and Xinyuan Tanchun, how likely is it that one of the remaining six is a Suffering believer?

Whatever the case, for Shen Sui, the next round of the competition will be a very interesting duel.

"I say, you're so free?" As Shen Sui leisurely entered the school gate, he happened to bump into Xinyuan Tanchun. Xinyuan Tanchun looked at Shen Sui, helplessly saying, "It seems you haven't entered a professional state at all."

"Professional state?" Shen Sui looked down at his clothes, "What state should a professional player be in."

Xinyuan Tanchun raised his finger, saying, "Lazy professionals who just earn easy money don't count, but those aiming to climb higher ranks have few days off in a year. They're either in a duel or on the way to a duel."

"But I'm preparing for the Modu Duel Tournament quarter-finals, aren't I?"

"Too idle." Xinyuan Tanchun crossed his arms and said, "There's a four to five days gap; this time is enough to participate in the earlier rounds of the next competition! By the time you're done with your duel, you can seamlessly transition to the key matches of the next competition."

"Ah... doesn't that mean flying all over the country?"

"Yes, everyone flies around the country when pushing ranks." Xinyuan Tanchun said, "Now, the Exploration Bureau has implemented a consecutive wins rule for rank skipping, which might help you level up faster."

"But you probably don't have time for any large B-class competitions now." Xinyuan Tanchun took out a brochure, "You can check out this competition. The earlier rounds are held in Modu, and after the quarter-finals, it's in Zuili City. Aren't you from Zuili City? You would be interested in it."

Shen Sui took the brochure from Xinyuan Tanchun.

Only then did he realize that Xinyuan Tanchun had come over specifically to ask if he wanted to participate in this event.

The name of the event was: Wu Yue Cup.
