Chapter 313 The Shock of the 100,000-Year Soul Ring.
This so-called reunion saw Wu Xuan and his friends down a whole barrel of wine. If Old Liu from the inner courtyard canteen hadn't intervened, they probably would have continued drinking.
"Old Liu! You're really unfair! What's wrong with drinking a little more of your wine?! What's wrong with that?" Yao Haoxuan shouted arrogantly.
"Hey! I have a short temper. How many barrels of this wine are produced a year? You little brats downed a whole barrel, what more do you want?" Old Liu rolled up his sleeves, ready to teach Yao Haoxuan a lesson.
"Old Liu! Old Liu, calm down! Yao Haoxuan is drunk and acting crazy. We'll drag him away!" Chen Zifeng quickly stepped forward and covered Yao Haoxuan's mouth.
"Hmph! Hurry up, hurry up! What time is it?" Old Liu waved them away.
"Junior Brother Wu, you guys should go back and rest too. I'll take Old Yao home," Chen Zifeng said, waving his hand.
"Alright! See you tomorrow night! We'll see how strong you are then." Wu Xuan yawned and turned to leave.
Tonight, under the arrangement of the various teachers in the inner academy, Wu Xuan didn't see a single girl on his way back to the wooden house, which truly impressed him.
He fell asleep and slept until sunset the next day.
When Wu Xuan finished washing up and reappeared by Seagod Lake, he felt that the entire Seagod Island was somewhat different.
Hmm, there was an aura of romance.
A turquoise wind instantly enveloped Wu Xuan, and with a leap, he arrived at the so-called venue.
Along the way, Wu Xuan saw several groups of Shrek Academy inner academy students in red school uniforms converging on the Seagod's Fate Blind Date Event.
Because Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department had only developed rapidly in recent years, the inner academy students were still predominantly from the Martial Soul Department.
All those gathered were male students; not a single female student was to be seen. The lake was pitch black, and the mist made it difficult to discern anything.
Wu Xuan glanced around and spotted Huo Yuhao, Xu Sanshi, and the others, but he didn't approach them to greet them.
"Brother Xuan! Good evening!" Qian Guming greeted cheerfully.
"Hmm! You're right on time!" Wu Xuan couldn't help but smile. As soon as
Wu Xuan finished speaking, a large ship appeared from afar, its lights shining brightly. The inner court students recognized it immediately—it was the largest ferry on Sea God Lake. The ship was already packed with people.
Although he couldn't see clearly from this distance, Wu Xuan recognized everyone on the small boat using his spiritual senses. Almost all the elders, including Elder Mu and Elder Xuan, were present, along with the Dean of the Martial Soul Department, Yan Shaozhe, the Vice Dean, Cai Meier, the Dean of the Soul Guidance Department, Xian Lin'er, the Vice Dean, Qian Duoduo, and Fan Yu.
Of course, at the stern was Ma Xiaotao, looking sullen and angry.
Yan Shaozhe, Ma Xiaotao's senior brother and teacher, actually didn't allow Ma Xiaotao to participate in this Sea God's Fate matchmaking event.
The inner court students who had participated in the Sea God's Fate matchmaking event before knew what was going on, while some of the younger students participating for the first time were filled with anticipation.
The large ship didn't row towards them but stopped in the middle of the lake. Just then, beams of light suddenly shot out from the lake water. Under the rippling light, nineteen beams of light appeared first.
All nineteen beams were pale gold, and on the surface of the lake where each beam emerged stood a girl in a white dress. All nineteen girls wore identical dresses and the same conical hats, with three-foot-long white veils completely obscuring their faces.
Bathed in the pale golden light, they resembled fairies gliding across the rippling lake, their ethereal beauty dazzling.
The nineteen girls stood in a line, facing the shore, standing quietly. Some of the male students on the bank were already growing impatient.
Just then, two stronger beams of white light illuminated the scene, and two figures appeared.
On the left was Bei Bei, dressed in a white robe, and on the right was Zhang Lexuan, the senior disciple of Shrek Academy's inner court, in a pale yellow dress.
Having not seen her for nearly a year, Wu Xuan noticed that this senior disciple hadn't changed at all; time seemed to have no power to leave a mark on her. She remained as gentle and beautiful as ever, a faint smile on her pretty face.
Senior Sister Zhang Lexuan's voice carried far, "Sea God's Fate at Sea God Lake, a thousand-year Shrek Academy, a moment of destiny. Welcome everyone to the shores of Sea God Lake on this beautiful evening. The annual Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event is about to begin."
"As the host of this grand event, on behalf of all the teachers in the academy, I wish all the inner academy students attending the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event today to find their true love. At the same time, I also welcome the elders and teachers of the Sea God Pavilion who are here to witness this event. Here, on behalf of the students, I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to all the teachers."
A series of enthusiastic applause resounded throughout the entire shores of Sea God Lake.
Elder Mu smiled slightly and nodded to Zhang Lexuan. He raised his hand, indicating that the event could continue.
The simple opening remarks received thunderous applause, and the male students on the shore couldn't wait to cheer. Especially those who already had someone in their hearts were already quite impatient.
Beibei cleared her throat and said, "Now, all male students participating in today's Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event, please get ready. Thirty-nine beams of light will appear in the lake shortly. The students closest to us, the Sea God's Fairies, will proceed to the first round. Those further back may not be able to secure a good ranking in the first round. So, everyone, please pay attention. No matter how you land, as long as you land on the water lily leaf where the beam is located, you'll have secured a spot. But whatever you do, do not fall into the water, or you will be disqualified from continuing to participate in this year's Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event."
Beibei's explanation was quite clear, and most of the male students on the shore were eager to try.
"Everyone, get ready. Three, two, one."
"Begin!"
Thirty-nine beams of light suddenly shot out from under the lake surface. These thirty-nine beams were arranged in three neat rows, each row about five meters apart, evenly distributed on the lake surface about one hundred meters away from the female students. They were about two hundred meters from the shore.
With Beibei's command to begin, everyone on the shore immediately sprang into action.
Those who benefited the most were naturally the Soul Masters with flying Martial Souls. Fortunately, among all thirty-nine male students, only four possessed this ability. The four students each released their Martial Souls, soaring into the air and flying at full speed towards the lake.
Yellow, purple, and black—the Soul Rings shone brightly, like dazzling fireworks suddenly exploding on the lakeside.
Suddenly, two bright red, blood-like Soul Rings lit up in full view of everyone.
"Red… 100,000-year Soul Rings! Two?"
The outer court students stared wide-eyed in disbelief at the cyan figure who had emerged victorious.
