Donghai City.

The second largest city on the eastern coast of the Sun and Moon Federation. An important port, maritime transportation, and marine resource development city.

The city has a permanent population of over three million, and it is very prosperous due to the utilization of marine resources. Even in the entire Sun and Moon Federation, it can be considered a second-tier city.

Donghai City has a long history, and its urban appearance still retains an ancient and simple style. In recent centuries, the Sun and Moon Federation has paid particular attention to the protection of ancient buildings, so in this ancient city, many buildings over a thousand years old can be seen.

At the Donghai City soul-guided train station, a deep blue soul-guided train slowly pulled into the station and decelerated.

In Donghai, almost all soul-guided trains are primarily blue in color.

The train stopped steadily, and the doors opened. People filed off the train, many carrying a lot of luggage. For a moment, the station became bustling. Crowds of people moved toward the exit.

Tang Wulin tightened the backpack on his back and followed the crowd out. It was his first time coming to this big city, and he curiously looked at everything around him.

The station's ceiling was made of many metal pipes joined together. Just by looking at it, he could tell that these metal pipes were ordinary cast metal, made by simple stamping.

His expression was not very good, and his mood seemed somewhat low.

For the unfamiliar environment, at only nine years old, he inevitably felt some fear.

He had come to attend school, to register at Donghai College in Donghai City. He had thought that his father or mother would accompany him, but his father said that he was already a big boy and should have more experiences on his own. After buying a ticket, his father sent him onto the soul-guided train.

This was Tang Wulin's first long-distance trip. Although before leaving, Lang Yue had given him many instructions, he still felt somewhat lost upon arriving here. He followed the crowd out, his face full of confusion.

As he was walking forward, the crowd suddenly parted. Tang Wulin saw a shiny black soul-guided car parked on the platform. People were avoiding it, which is why they split to the sides.

Although he did not recognize what kind of car it was, its appearance clearly indicated that it was very high-end. The car was long and streamlined, with four wheels and tracks at the bottom, showing its all-terrain capabilities.

Beside the car door, two men in black formal attire stood, looking around the crowd.

When Tang Wulin approached, they seemed to have found their target. One of the men took large steps toward Tang Wulin and respectfully said, "Young Master!"

This title was obviously not directed at Tang Wulin. Tang Wulin instinctively looked to his side, and a young boy walked over from behind him.

The boy looked to be about his age, wearing a blue tracksuit, with short brown hair. When Tang Wulin turned his head, the boy had already passed by him, so he only saw his side profile.

He had fair skin, a high nose bridge, slightly sunken eye sockets, and long, curly eyelashes. His eyes seemed to be dark green.

At this moment, a push came from the crowd on the other side of Tang Wulin, causing him to stagger and bump into the boy's shoulder.

The boy stumbled and suddenly turned to look at him.

His appearance was very handsome, but he clearly had a cold and proud demeanor. Tang Wulin clearly felt that although the boy's eyes fell on him, they only glanced at him before he continued walking toward the soul-guided car. His expression was not one of indifference to being bumped, but rather a complete lack of concern.

"Sorry!" Tang Wulin hurriedly apologized.

The black-clad man who had approached raised his hand and pushed Tang Wulin's chest, sending him into the crowded crowd, almost making him fall.

"Be careful, country bumpkin." The black-clad man said viciously, then followed the boy.

The other black-clad man opened the car door for the boy, protecting the top of the door with one hand.

The boy did not look back and directly got into the car. The two black-clad men quickly got in, and the soul-guided engine roared lowly as the black car drove away.

Tang Wulin rubbed his chest, which was not painful, but he still felt a surge of anger, thinking to himself: These city people are so domineering!

Following the crowd out of the station, the feeling of being crowded finally disappeared.

Looking back, he saw several large characters above the station: Donghai Soul-Guided Train Station.

Looking at this massive building, Tang Wulin couldn't help but marvel. Just this station alone was already more magnificent than the tallest buildings in Aolai City.

Turning to look around, he saw a wide street, and in the distance, towering skyscrapers. Various soul-guided cars sped by on the street, and the bustling crowds gave a sense of indescribable pressure.

Shrinking his shoulders, Tang Wulin took a sip of water from a bottle he pulled from his backpack.

Then he took out a piece of paper, which his father had written for him, detailing what he should do when he arrived in Donghai City.

At this moment, a thin middle-aged man approached, smiling and said, "Little boy, is this your first time in Donghai City? Where are your parents?"

Tang Wulin was looking at the paper, and the first line read: Do not easily trust any strangers.

He looked up at the middle-aged man, shook his head, and did not speak to him, quickly walking in a certain direction.

In that direction was a guard post with the words "Administrative Law Enforcement" written on it.

Inside the guard post were two law enforcement officers in uniform. Tang Wulin walked up to them and said, "Hello, Uncle Officer, where is the shuttle bus for Donghai College?"

As a famous college in Donghai City, during the annual enrollment period, Donghai College always has shuttle buses to pick up people at the station. As long as he found the shuttle bus, he could smoothly get to the college.

One of the officers pointed not far away, "Over there. Little boy, where are your parents?"

Tang Wulin straightened his chest, "Uncle, I'm not a little kid anymore. Thank you." After saying this, he turned and ran in the direction the officer pointed.

Sure enough, after passing through the crowd, a white sign with blue letters stood there, reading: Donghai College, in large characters.

Under the sign were tables and chairs, and behind them sat several young men and women in blue tracksuits, who looked to be around seventeen or eighteen years old.

Seeing Tang Wulin run over, a black-haired girl smiled at him, "Little brother, are you here to register?"

The black-haired girl had almond-shaped eyes, a moderate figure, and a sweet and friendly appearance.
