Shi Yu's mood was turbulent for a while, although he had accepted the fact of transmigrating and was learning to get used to it.
But if he could return to his original life, he would still choose to give up all his abilities without hesitation to come back.
Plainness is true happiness. Compared to having extraordinary abilities, or even becoming a god and living forever, Senior would still rather be with his family.
"Excuse me, which city is this?" After calming down a bit, Shi Yu pulled a young lady nearby and asked.
He needed to figure out which city in the country he was in before deciding how to proceed.
The young lady who was stopped looked at Senior in surprise. This person is probably a bit strange, how could Senior not even know what city this was.
"East Sea City," the young lady still answered.
"East Sea City... why haven't I heard of it? Which province is this in?" Shi Yu recalled the information about East Sea City and confirmed that Senior had never heard of this coastal city.
"What province? East Sea City is a city directly under the East Sea Administrative Region. You don't even know this? Are you from out of town?" The young lady looked at Shi Yu with a strange expression.
"East Sea Administrative Region? Is there such an administrative region?" Shi Yu was even more confused.
Senior wasn't very knowledgeable about the country's geographical regions, but Senior still had some common sense. There was no East Sea Administrative Region in the country.
Could it be abroad?
Shi Yu couldn't help but suspect, but soon realized something. Senior's expression stiffened, and Senior stared blankly at the young lady, making her take a few steps back, feeling unsafe.
"Is this the Douluo Continent, and the ruling government is the Sun Moon Federal?" Shi Yu asked uncertainly.
Senior finally reacted. The original modern world didn't have East Sea City, but the Douluo Continent did.
It wasn't the Peerless Tang Sect Period, but the Dragon King Legend Period that had this city.
Of course, it might not be Tang Wulin's time point, but an earlier timeline.
After all, East Sea City might have existed for a long time and didn't appear at the same time as Tang Wutong.
"Yes," the young lady replied and walked away, thinking Shi Yu was strange.
"That is to say, Shi Yu is still on the Douluo Continent..." Shi Yu muttered to himself, greatly disappointed.
After calming down as much as possible, Shi Yu was in the mood to look around, feeling directionless for a while.
Before obtaining the Soul Ring, Senior had thought about what Senior should do to gain benefits if Senior transmigrated back to ten thousand years ago. This opportunity to transmigrate was precious, and Senior couldn't just play for a few days.
But now, those previous plans couldn't be implemented because Senior was in the era ten thousand years later, a full twenty thousand years difference from the Tang San era. Things had changed, the environment was very different, and some opportunities were also different.
It would definitely not be appropriate to obtain opportunities according to the plan made based on the Tang San era.
Shi Yu found a step to sit on. The shop wasn't open, so sitting here wouldn't affect anyone.
Senior fell into deep thought, wondering what Senior should do next.
This transmigration most likely also had a time limit. For now, Senior estimated the time to be the same as the last time, which was seven days.
Seven days is not long, but it's not short either. There are still quite a few things that can be done.
"First of all, Senior should figure out the exact timeline, so that Senior can determine some subsequent plans," Shi Yu thought to himself.
What Senior is familiar with are some things from the Tang Wulin period. To obtain opportunities, Senior needs to start with these familiar things.
"Worried about money again," Shi Yu sighed, thinking of some smart products of this era. If Senior had money, Senior could buy one to go online and check all sorts of things Senior wanted to know, which would be much more convenient.
Suddenly, a thought flashed, and Senior thought of the silver soul coins in Senior's pocket.
"These things should be considered antiques," Shi Yu looked at the silver soul coins in Senior's hand with a slight smile.
Although these silver soul coins were still very new and didn't have the old look of antiques, they were indeed currency from ten thousand years ago.
This era uses federal currency, and this currency has long disappeared from the market, becoming a rare item.
If this currency had been out of the market for hundreds or thousands of years, then it's estimated that very few people would have it, and its value would increase accordingly.
Shi Yu immediately pulled a passerby and asked, wanting to know where there was an antique shop nearby where Senior could sell silver soul coins.
After asking several people, Senior finally found the location and rushed there with anticipation.
Walking on the road, Senior couldn't help but feel a little dazed. This era was already very close to the modern world Senior was in.
Tall buildings stood in great numbers, there were many businesses on the streets, cars came and went on the roads, and people's clothing was also very modern.
If Senior hadn't known that this was East Sea City on the Douluo Continent, Senior would have thought Senior had returned to the modern world.
Many people looked at Senior along the way, not because they were attracted by Senior's handsome appearance, but by Senior's clothing and style. The clothing was retro, which was rarely seen in this era.
More importantly, the Shrek Academy emblem and the five words on the chest of the clothing were very eye-catching.
"Senior is actually a student of Shrek Academy," many people reacted as if they had seen a minor celebrity.
It's not an exaggeration to say that Shrek Academy is known to everyone; its popularity is frighteningly high.
The difficulty of entering Shrek Academy might be harder than becoming the governor of a city.
The enrollment season, which happens every few years, sometimes only recruits a few people, and at most, just over a hundred people, while the number of people who want to apply for Shrek Academy is in the tens of thousands.
From this application and acceptance ratio, one can see how difficult it is to enter Shrek Academy.
It is precisely because they know how difficult it is to enter Shrek Academy that they were particularly surprised to see Shi Yu wearing the Shrek Academy school uniform at this time. This is a dragon among men.
Some people even came up wanting to take a photo with Shi Yu and also wanted an autograph.
This might be a future high and mighty Dou Armor Master, an existence they need to look up to. Not taking a photo or getting an autograph as a souvenir would be letting this luck go to waste.
"Sorry," Shi Yu politely refused. Senior didn't want to do these superficial things.
Senior also felt a headache, not expecting this school uniform to bring Senior these troubles.
After entering Shrek Academy, Senior was given school uniforms. Senior didn't have many clothes himself, so Senior had always alternated between the school uniform and that one set of clothes.
Most of the time, Senior wore the school uniform. Senior didn't deliberately change clothes when Senior went to obtain the Soul Ring this time.
To be precise, Senior was even more inclined to wear the school uniform when Senior went to obtain the Soul Ring.
It would be more heartbreaking if Senior's own clothes were damaged, but Senior didn't feel anything about the school uniform, after all, it was received for free.
Thus, the current situation of being treated like a minor celebrity while wearing the school uniform occurred.
Information travels very fast in this era. Senior didn't want photos of Senior with some people to be posted online and then seen by people from Shrek Academy.
There are some differences between the school uniform from ten thousand years ago and the current school uniform. They should be able to recognize that Senior is wearing the old school uniform, which might bring many unknown troubles.
