Chapter 6: Chapter 6 : A hyprocrite who claims to be righteous
In the early morning, Jiang Yi stepped outside the young man's room, pausing momentarily to mourn his friend, who had helped him in various ways.
"Although I'm still weak now, I will help you get revenge," he resolved.
After making up his mind, Jiang Yi walked directly into the distance without lingering.
Today, Notting Junior Soul Master Academy will hold its so-called opening ceremony. Jiang Yi couldn't refuse this event.
Not because there were many young girls in Notting Junior Soul Master Academy, but because Jiang Yi needed to fill his stomach.
The back-to-school season was the best time to make money. Since Jiang Yi intended to earn some money through tarot card divination, he couldn't afford to miss this opportunity.
Upon arriving at Notting Junior Soul Master Academy, Jiang Yi laid out the carpet in its original location and erected the sign he had prepared beforehand.
"Tarot card divination, one silver coin per reading," the sign proclaimed.
This was the price specified by Jiang Yi. Though divination was mysterious, fortune tellers needed to eat.
Jiang Yi had just finished preparing everything when he noticed two people exiting Notting Junior Soul Master Academy.
Tang San, who had received a free divination yesterday, and Yu Xiaogang, a renowned master in the soul master world,
"Teacher, this is the fortune teller I mentioned." Tang San spoke to Yu Xiaogang, still feeling somewhat perplexed about yesterday's events.
Though Tang San considered it a coincidence, the previous two cards had left him feeling slightly unsettled.
To determine if this individual knew his secret, Tang San wanted to try again.
If this person truly possessed knowledge, Tang San would need to consider how to deal with him.
"Is this the fortune teller who predicted that you would encounter a noble person?" Yu Xiaogang asked Tang San, surprised by yesterday's experience but skeptical of such a ludicrous method of prediction.
"A silver coin? That's a bit pricey!" Yu Xiaogang frowned upon seeing Jiang Yi's sign. A Gintama coin likely equated to several days' worth of food expenses for ordinary people.
Ordinary folks wouldn't readily part with such a sum, but for soul masters, it was a different story.
Observing Tang San's and Yu Xiaogang's reactions, Jiang Yi sensed their suspicion and inexplicable animosity.
Despite his internal disdain for the two, Jiang Yi recognized the need to make a living without complaint.
"Pick one," Jiang Yi said wearily after asking Yu Xiaogang to shuffle the cards. Although he endeavored not to let his personal feelings affect his money-making attitude, being scrutinized by two people with suspicion and unwarranted enmity made him uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Tang San and Yu Xiaogang were preoccupied with examining the tarot cards, hoping to uncover some hidden meaning.
However, tarot cards were foreign to the Douluo Continent. Even with their intense scrutiny, they wouldn't discern any faults in something inherently faultless.
Guided by Jiang Yi, Yu Xiaogang selected a card.
A golden sun.
The sun card is in an upright position.
"The sun card is in the upright position. You may face some setbacks in your endeavors today, but ultimately, you will overcome them and find success," Jiang Yi explained upon seeing the card.
"Ah, that sounds promising!" Yu Xiaogang remarked after receiving the explanation, then departed with Tang San.
Jiang Yi watched them leave quietly, realizing a peculiar insight.
It seemed his intuition regarding certain matters had improved.
For instance, Tang San's expression betrayed nothing, yet Jiang Yi sensed his latent hostility.
Likewise, Jiang Yi perceived Yu Xiaogang's disdain and dissatisfaction, perhaps influenced by the tarot cards.
Though not yet a bona fide fortune teller, Jiang Yi had acquired some abilities after absorbing a piece of the puzzle.
As he contemplated this, the voice of Hundred Thousand Years Rogue Rabbit Xiaowu interrupted his thoughts.
Jiang Yi turned to see Xiao Wu, now clad in a white school uniform.
Some people looked good in anything. Jiang Yi hadn't believed this until he met Xiao Wu, whose ferocity bore a hint of cuteness, befitting a hundred-thousand-year-old rogue rabbit.
"Where are you looking?!" Xiao Wu's shy voice snapped him out of his reverie.
"Sorry, sorry. Your beauty is truly captivating," Jiang Yi replied, averting his gaze in embarrassment, lest he ruin his plans to raise rabbits in the future.
Though pleased by the praise, Xiao Wu had a specific purpose in approaching him.
Tarot cards not only forewarned her of danger but also absorbed excess soul-beast aura from her body.
This was crucial to her, and she needed to understand why Jiang Yi had given her the cards.
As Xiao Wu prepared to ask, the pink tarot card submerged in her body emerged, and then floated towards Jiang Yi.
"What's happening?" Xiao Wu's inquiry shifted abruptly. The tarot card was vital to her, and losing it would be a significant setback.
Especially after the recent incident on the playground, where the aura had frightened her—a potential threat to a hundred-thousand-year-old soul beast, a Titled Douluo.
"It seems this tarot card is quite fond of you. You two have 100% compatibility," Jiang Yi remarked, his tone turning serious.
