Douluo Continent, my martial soul is a mushroom.

Chapter 93 Long Time No See, Slightly Regretful

The mycelium has spread throughout the mainland, and the key to communication transmission networks is the deployment of base stations. The transmission signal range of a single base station is a circle with a radius of 100 kilometers.

For convenience, Ikehira chose a rectangular network layout.

A base station is placed at each of the four corners of the rectangle, which is 140 kilometers long and wide.

There are currently 1000 base stations, but more than 7000 more are needed to complete the network deployment.

A long way to go.

However, this did not prevent Chi Ping from setting up several complete routes in advance for experiments, as well as for contacting friends and major forces. These included the Spirit Hall, Heaven Dou City, Star Luo City, and the Star Dou Great Forest.

While setting up the base stations, Ikehira also delivered communication terminals to each person's residence.

Xiao Wu, Oscar, and Ning Rongrong all rushed back to Shrek Academy for this reason.

……

"Hey! Hirako, you've come up with something new again? Little Ao has gotten quite a bit stronger, and Rongrong and Xiaowu are even more beautiful!"

As soon as he entered, Dai Mubai greeted everyone in a hearty manner.

"Mu Bai is here. Please have a seat."

"Zhuqing, come here quickly, I have something good to tell you."

"oh."

Chi Ping was busy doing tests and checking the quality of signal transmission, Oscar and Ning Rongrong were staring at the crystal display trying to figure out what was going on, and Xiao Wu was absent-minded, thinking about her third brother.

A few words were his response.

"this……"

Dai Mubai's mouth was open.

That doesn't seem right.

That's way too cold!

Have the feelings faded?

"Alright, that's what happens when you all arrive so late. We've already had a get-together once, so it's not so easy to get excited," Ma Hongjun said softly. A person's emotions are finite; it's impossible to stay excited all the time.

Then he pushed Dai Mubai into the house.

Zhu Zhuqing and Shui Bing'er followed them in.

As soon as she entered the room, Zhu Zhuqing was drawn to the wall covered with screens.

"What's this? I remember that junior had something similar before; he used this to notify you, I think. The campus network communication system?"

"I guess you didn't get the terminals that Brother Ping sent you either, so let me tell you about them," Ma Hongjun said to Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing.

He took a tablet terminal with a red phoenix pattern painted on it from his waist.

"This thing is a terminal."

The basic functions are the same as those on the wall.

The soul guide device made by Brother Ping.

The Dean and his group of old brothers, Bing'er, Uncle Ning, Sword Douluo, everyone's friends, and even the Spirit Hall sent samples.

Your estimates are currently being kept in the Star Luo Imperial Palace.

Its main function is to send text messages, or send emails. You type on one terminal, receive and display the message on another designated terminal, and save it. (Each terminal is bound to a unique identity, which can be inherited through certain operations.)

That thing on the wall is the central server for the campus staff terminals, which is a large terminal. In addition to communication, Ping Ge also added functions such as complex image display to it.

The terminal's transmission can reach a province within one minute.

Ping is currently conducting extreme distance tests; he can cover 5000 kilometers in just one hour.

"That's amazing?" Dai Mubai was shocked. So much so that he completely ignored the words "Spirit Hall" that Ma Hongjun mentioned.

Zhu Zhuqing noticed it, but out of trust, she planned to ask later.

Ma Hongjun snorted, "Ping Ge thought about it for over a year before coming up with it, how could it not be amazing?"

"Do you have any extra? Could you teach us how to use them?"

"Beg me."

Please!

"Hey! Wait a minute, I'll get one for you and one for Zhuqing."

The device wasn't too difficult to make, and Ikehira prepared quite a bit for his experiments.

About half an hour later, Ikehira completed the experiment.

Dai Mubai and Zhu Zhuqing also became familiar with how to use the terminal.

Nine-key typing is quite easy for people who have studied literature to learn.

All experimental data were recorded and archived, and Chiping was restored to the original settings.

After doing all that, he stood up and gave Dai Mubai a bear hug, and then politely gave Zhu Zhuqing a light hug.

"Long time no see, Mu Bai, Zhu Qing."

"Long time no see, Hirako!"

……

A long-awaited reunion should be celebrated properly, but since old friends are not here, we can only offer a delicious meal.

Simply put, it was just a get-together for a meal.

They borrowed a stove in the academy cafeteria and prepared the food together as a group of seven. They didn't go to a hotel; firstly, the nearest city to Shrek Academy was Soto City, which was too much trouble to go there, and secondly, it was more meaningful to cook for themselves.

This is where the difference becomes apparent.

Oscar and Ma Hongjun are good at eating and have excellent cooking skills. Chi Ping is also very skillful, otherwise he wouldn't be able to research soul tools. Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu can only play the role of assistants.

Flander, Zhao Wuji, Shao Xin, Lu Qibin, and Li Yusong, five teachers who have accompanied Shrek Academy from beginning to end, as well as Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong, these senior teachers also came.

Chi Ping followed the terminal's location and teleported to each one to receive them.

Oscar was in charge of cooking, Chi Ping was in charge of the case, Ma Hongjun controlled the fire, and the others assisted.

Dai Mubai handed the washed and sorted radish to Chi Ping, and asked curiously, "Pingzi, what have you been doing these past few years?"

Ding ding ding ding...

Chi Ping thought for a moment, "I stayed in Tiandou City for more than a year, and then I traveled all over the continent, and by the way, I completed the first test of the God of Life."

Dai Mubai felt a little numb, as if he was being isolated.

"What exactly is this 'Life Trial'?"

Chi Ping paused for a moment, "I remember sending the message to the group via the terminal. Didn't you receive it?"

"Haha~" Dai Mubai laughed awkwardly, "I was in such a hurry that I missed it."

"I'll resend you a copy later. For now, let me just briefly tell you about the legend of becoming a god at level 100, right? It's true. I was chosen by the Goddess of Life and received her inheritance test. There are nine tests in total, and I've almost completed the first one, just need to submit it. The Goddess of Life gave me a message that completing the god test will reward me with a Life Praise, which will also have some benefits for onlookers."

"Oh!" Dai Mubai's eyes widened. "So, Pingzi, you're going to become a god?"

"It's not even close to being done yet."

"It's only a matter of time before it happens to you! Remember to help your brothers out when you become successful."

Chi Ping sighed helplessly, "This place is not suitable for bringing people."

"True." Dai Mubai shrugged, nonchalantly. "If it were that easy, gods would be everywhere. If it doesn't work, then forget it."

"And you? What have you and Zhuqing been doing these past five years?"

"Compete with my brother for the throne, what else can I do? Now all I have to do is wait for my cultivation to break through to the Soul Saint level, then everything will be settled."

Dai Mubai continued, "When does it start?"

"I have to submit the results within a week. Although Goddess of Life is quite lenient with me, I can't deliberately delay the assessment for too long."

"Wouldn't the mistress miss out?"

"I tried to contact the other woman before, but I couldn't find her. I don't know where she went."

"That's a real pity..." Dai Mubai said regretfully.

The vegetables were chopped, and Chi Ping asked Dai Mubai to take them to Oscar. Zhu Zhuqing then came over with the blanched meat.
