On the white envelope, there is a seal made by mental power, which only he can untie.
Besides that, there is no signature.
Although it is a letter from the main star of the empire, it cannot be an official letter as it does not even have an icon mark.
Shen Tingyu thanked him and took it. He locked the door and slowly opened it after the person left.
The content was not long, but it made him silent.
Even the faint smile that habitually appeared in his eyes disappeared in an instant, turning into two pools of stagnant water.
He leaned against the table, staring at the words for a long time without moving, then opened the communicator and contacted someone.
The call was quickly connected, and a female voice came from the other end in a hurry: "Shen Tingyu, you finally saw the letter I sent you!"
"If I hadn't had an impulse yesterday and intercepted the final data in the SM system that was about to be sent to the Empire's main brain system, your highly compatible match result would have been discovered by the royal family!"
Shen Tingyu's voice was deep and calm: "Impossible, there is something wrong with the data results."
The other party paused for a few seconds and replied, "Although I am also shocked that there is a soul in this world that is so compatible with you, but you had your physical examination done here, and I personally helped you extract the soul information sample. You should be very clear about this, right?"
Shen Tingyu didn't reply.
The person on the other side continued, "I personally sent this batch of specimens to the Silver Dragon United Hospital, and besides me, there are only four or five people in the entire empire who have mastered the technology to exchange specimen chip data."
"Those people have basically no interest in you. If you wanted to change, you would have done it a few years ago when you were the most feared by the Empire."
As she spoke, she muttered, "Besides, even if they want to match you with a fake partner, they will find someone who is obedient and easy to control, right? Xu Qingran's reputation has become like this recently. He will definitely not be among the candidates considered by the Empire..."
Shen Tingyu held the letter in his hand and fell silent again.
Indeed, why did it have to be Xu Qingran
If I had known this, I should have thrown him directly into the 2-tower arena.
"You know, what they care about is not the authenticity of the data, but the person who can bind a soul contract with you and use him to restrict you. If this 99% match result is released now, you won't even have time to prepare, and you will be forced to marry and bind a contract by the Empire immediately."
Shen Tingyu still insisted: "Impossible."
"There's no way I'll ever have the right soul mate."
The girl opposite him asked him, "I know that the people you've matched with over the years have not even had a 10% compatibility, but... there's no guarantee, right? How can you be so sure that you won't meet someone like that in this lifetime?"
Shen Tingyu's face darkened slightly, and after a long while he replied: "I know my own affairs best."
The person on the other end of the line stopped trying to persuade him, and only said, "Even if you insist that there is something wrong with the data, both of you had your physical examinations not long ago, and it will take at least another year to extract new soul information. In this year, the Empire will be able to make the rice of the two of you as familiar as possible."
"So what are you going to do?"
Shen Tingyu lowered his eyes in thought.
Then he said, "Send him to Tianyi first."
After a few seconds of silence, someone on the other side exclaimed in disbelief: "Tianyi? Your little nephew?"
"He's only 5! You're so vicious!"
Shen Tingyu hung up the call.
He really didn't want to be tied to any partner relationship with anyone, but the result of Xu Qingran's match with him was a little strange, and the other party was the quasi-E type candidate he expected. So he thought that before they did another soul match, he could temporarily keep the person under his eyes and investigate the cause of the incident.

During the days when Xu Qingran was taken into the evil tower, a big news broke out on the forum outside.
It all started with an anonymous post on a forum called Xingya. The title was very direct—the Kaian Empire is blessed, and will soon welcome a chosen couple with a soul compatibility of over 98%.
The beginning of the main building is also classic.
—I have a relative who is one of the team members responsible for the Empire SM system. This is the information he revealed to me. It’s authentic. If you don’t believe me, just wait and see.
[35L: The best of the best, another one from the I Have a Relative series.]
[907L: Speechless, this kind of post has been around for years, right? It comes every year, and every year I say it, I get slapped in the face, I don’t know what I’m trying to achieve.]
Then the OP added:
[I can’t say more, I can only remind you that the two parties may not be in the same camp.
Unfortunately, they are not a perfect couple. One of them has a very bad reputation and is very controversial. He just has a little money and background. I thought they would be lonely for the rest of their lives, but I didn't expect them to be matched. I can only say that their ancestors are grateful.
As for the other one, it is not convenient to comment on him, but he is a recent celebrity.]
In a short period of time, the post had accumulated tens of thousands of views.
[3977L: Whose internet celebrity is this or whose brother or sister is this fan of? Are they trying to hype up a couple to increase their popularity?]
[7613L: Okay, I'll move a stool and sit here and wait. If what the host said is true, I'll eat poop live on the spot!]
[12733L: Hiss, this person of the hour, am I the only one who thought of the biggest scandal of Silver Dragon a while ago? ]
[13722L: I remember that Xu Qingan and Lu Cheng's compatibility is 88, right? So it definitely doesn't refer to them? ]
[18888L: Nonsense, different camps? Being in different camps proves that the two parties are not compatible enough. They can't even agree on ideas, preferences and topics. How can they be compatible? ]
[29210L: Ah, yes, yes, yes, I just think you Gold Wings are unlucky. How dare you dream of falling in love with us Silver Dragons? ]
[30008L: Where did that 2w9 idiot above come from? Who mentioned your faction? I haven't even complained about you Silver Dragons producing trash yet! ]
The building was stacked up, and suddenly it tilted.
It started out by complaining about the original poster spreading rumors, and ended up turning into a war of words between the two camps.
Xu Qingan sat in the bar, legs crossed, browsing the forum with his phone, enjoying himself. His beautiful fox eyes could not help but bend as the netizens in the building talked.
"Have you heard about this?"
Xu Qingan put down his phone, looking worried: "I don't know either."
"My brother was taken to the evil tower some time ago and hasn't come back yet. My family is very worried."
He held the phone, fluttered his eyelashes a few times, and said, "Besides, I heard that the people sent to the District 1 Hospital for matching last time were all low-quality people like Boss Chen. My brother is so good, and the person who can have a high compatibility with those people will definitely not be him."
Several friends had different expressions on their faces when they heard this, and they seemed to be thinking about something.
Xu Qing'an took a sip of juice and lowered his eyes to hide the contemptuous smile in his eyes.
He really couldn't wait to see what his good brother would face after he came out.

At this time, almost two days had passed since Xu Qingran was sent to the fighting arena in Tower No. 3.
The staff of Tower 3 were all paying attention to the results in the arena.
In order to avoid the negative impact of bloody scenes, even the guards in the tower did not have a live broadcast to watch. So until the final survivors came out, they did not know who would stand to the end.
The reason why I paid more attention this time was because I heard that the fearless Quasi-E Type actually rushed in without a protective bracelet.
When Admiral Shen Tingyu entered the army, he was confirmed to be a top-level E-type qualification. This guy is just an ordinary B-level. Judging from his background, he is still a pampered young master.
Can he fight? Huh?!
This incident even alarmed the tower master, who came to pay attention in person.
On the afternoon when the tower commander arrived, an excited report came from the control room of the fighting arena: "It's over, it's over!"
"The system shows that there is only one life sign left in the arena. Should we... open the door?"
Everyone was nervous.
Although the Evil Tower Arena is an activity tacitly approved by the Empire, if an unconvicted person dies accidentally in it and the royal family knows about it, all the staff of the three towers, including the tower masters, may be punished.
"Open it." The tower commander folded his hands behind his back and narrowed his eyes.
The majestic tower master would never let his subordinates notice that his hands were sweating!
As the red button was pressed, the largest door in the arena slowly split open.
At the door, a group of guards with guns were already standing there, ready for action.
Those who can be thrown into the Golden Evil Tower are all ruthless people. There is no guarantee that they will not be blood-thirsty after winning with weapons in hand, and will continue to attack others madly when they come out.
There have been many such examples in history.
In the silence as everyone held their breath, footsteps were finally heard from inside.
Walking on the bloody road, he slowly approached the door.
The light-colored clothes that the young man had just put on before entering were already stained with dazzling red, just like oil paint splashed on canvas. He was still tightly holding the short knife that was his only weapon in his hand. The soft and fluffy brown hair on his forehead and temples had become heavy because of sweat. His body, from his arms to his chest and abdomen, and then to his legs, was covered with shocking scars.
Even the bloody hole in his stomach was still oozing blood.
Everyone was shocked.
It wasn't because the people who came out looked so embarrassed, but they never expected that the young master who looked like he had never fought before could actually kill everyone in a 1vN battle without a protective bracelet and walk out of the purgatory-like arena alive.
Xu Qingran walked slowly to the gate and then stopped moving forward temporarily.
The tower commander stood in front of him, maintaining the same posture and looking at him. Everyone else who saw this scene, even those who graduated from military academies, inexplicably felt a kind of aura of suppression from the other party at this moment.
The contrast is quite stark compared to his soft and harmless appearance.
In the silence, the tall and thin young man suddenly raised the hand holding the knife.
Thinking that he might be a quasi-E, everyone clenched their weapons, ready to counterattack and suppress at any time.
But he chuckled and raised the corner of his mouth, then his hand loosened slightly, and the dagger given to him by the evil tower fell to the ground with a bang.
At the same time, the defenses on the field also relaxed slightly.
The tower leader pondered for a moment and took the initiative to speak: "Congratulations, you are indeed quite capable to be the only winner of the arena without a protective bracelet."
Who would have thought that the young master of a wealthy family could fight better than those villains.
So horrible.
Xu Qingran looked him over and suddenly asked, "Are you the head of the evil tower?"
"Yes." The tower commander replied.
"The medical department will help you take care of your injuries. After that, as long as you are willing to sign the agreement of Grandis University Military Academy and join the Imperial Army, you can leave at any time."
"Don't worry." Xu Qingran said, "There is a question I have been thinking about for a long time, and I finally figured it out."
"So now, I want to confirm with the tower commander."
Tower Master: “What’s the problem?”
Xu Qingran sneered: "The examiner who sent me to the 3-tower arena, is his full name Shen Tingyu?"
