Chapter 150 Yan Shaozhe Facilitates Online Matchmaking, Ma Xiaotao Attempts to Steal Dai Huabin's Heart
Ma Xiaotao kept Her head down and didn't say anything, but Her ears were visibly red.
Ma Xiaotao naturally recognized Dai Huabin; She had witnessed Him apologizing to Xue Qingyao when She visited Dai Huabin's dormitory last time.
He's really handsome.
But that's a completely different matter from getting married.
Just as Ma Xiaotao was about to speak, Yan Shaozhe changed the subject.
"However... your rash attack on Xue Qingyao has caused considerable trouble for this plan."
Ma Xiaotao's expression changed.
Of course She remembered that.
When She learned that Xue Qingyao was the Ultimate Ice, She wanted to ask Xue Qingyao to help suppress Her evil fire. However, Xue Qingyao refused, and Ma Xiaotao provoked Xue Qingyao but was defeated in one blow.
Ma Xiaotao was stunned.
"That Xue Qingyao is no simple character."
Yan Shaozhe's tone was very serious.
"Moreover, she and Dai Huabin had an extremely good relationship and were inseparable."
"Your previous actions might have already made Dai Huabin have a negative opinion of you."
Ma Xiaotao bit Her lip.
She admitted that She had acted recklessly that time.
After about ten seconds of silence, Ma Xiaotao suddenly looked up.
"Teacher, if I can get Dai Huabin's help, will I be able to participate in this Soul Master Competition?"
Yan Shaozhe tapped His fingers lightly twice on the table.
He was weighing the options.
Ma Xiaotao's strength was unquestionable; She was a level 67 Soul Emperor, and the attack power of Her Evil Fire Phoenix ranked among the top three in the Inner Academy.
If the hidden danger of the evil fire could be controlled, She would definitely be a key player in the Soul Master Competition.
Dai Huabin's Ultimate Ice was indeed the most effective suppression method at present.
"Okay." Yan Shaozhe nodded. "If Dai Huabin is willing to help you stabilize your evil fire before and during the match, I'll talk to Elder Mu."
Ma Xiaotao stood up, Her movements swift and decisive.
"Okay, I understand."
She turned and walked towards the door.
"Xiao Tao."
Yan Shaozhe called out from behind.
Ma Xiaotao stopped in Her tracks but didn't turn around.
"Soften your stance a bit."
Ma Xiaotao snorted, opened the door, and walked out.
...
There were hardly any people in the corridor.
Ma Xiaotao walked alone on the stone path of Poseidon Island, still processing what Yan Shaozhe had just said.
Matchmaking? Getting them married?
When did Ma Xiaotao fall so low that She needed to get married to solve Her problems?
This thought irritated Her.
Despite Her annoyance, She still understood the reasoning behind it.
The problem of the evil fire had plagued Her for many years, troubling Her ever since the day Her Spirit awakened.
Ultimate Ice was the only attribute that could resolve the evil fire at its root.
(That's what Shrek thinks.)
Throughout the entire Douluo Continent, those who possessed the Ultimate Ice were extremely rare, yet Shrek Academy had one, and that person was a second-year student a few years younger than Her.
Ma Xiaotao walked to the lakeside and sat down on the stone railing.
She rested Her chin on Her hand and thought for a while.
To be honest, if Dai Huabin were ugly, She wouldn't even consider it.
But that guy was undeniably good-looking.
With long golden hair and sinister eyes, He was the direct heir of the White Tiger Duke's mansion, and the aura of a noble scion He exuded was not feigned.
Moreover, He's at level 45, a second-year student. Even if we put this cultivation speed in the inner academy's historical records, it would rank among the top three, or even the first.
Although Ma Xiaotao wouldn't admit it, She didn't actually dislike Dai Huabin.
She caught a glimpse of Him from afar at the training ground last time. He said something to the black-haired girl next to Him, with a slight smile on His lips.
In that instant, a thought flashed through Ma Xiaotao's mind: this person's smile is quite handsome.
Then She was startled by Her own thought and immediately turned and left.
"Anyway..."
Ma Xiaotao stood up and dusted off Her skirt.
"Even if it's just to participate in the Soul Master Competition, I still have to go and talk to Him."
She mentally assured Herself.
With Ma Xiaotao's looks and figure, how many men at Shrek Academy wouldn't take a second look at Her?
So what if Dai Huabin has a fiancée?
She didn't even try to take the position of the legal wife.
All She needed was for the other party to help suppress the evil fire, and to cooperate in the Soul Master Competition.
As for Yan Shaozhe's mention of "becoming husband and wife," that's a story for another time.
Let's take care of the things at hand first.
Ma Xiaotao took a deep breath, Her red hair fluttering in the evening breeze.
She already had a plan in mind.
Tomorrow morning, Dai Huabin and His group would be reporting to the inner courtyard. She could intercept Him on the way.
As for Xue Qingyao...
Ma Xiaotao pursed Her lips slightly.
Apologize if She should.
Ma Xiaotao wouldn't deny Her mistakes. She was indeed the one who started it last time, so apologizing wasn't shameful.
Thinking of this, Ma Xiaotao turned around and walked back to Her dormitory.
She needed to think carefully about what to say when they met tomorrow. She couldn't be too forceful, nor too accommodating. Being too forceful might lead to an argument, while being too accommodating wouldn't be like Her.
After walking a few steps, Ma Xiaotao suddenly stopped again.
"Wait a minute... should I change my clothes?"
When this thought popped into Her head, Ma Xiaotao was stunned.
When did She start caring about what to wear when meeting a man?
"No change."
Ma Xiaotao drew a conclusion to Herself and quickened Her pace.
"Wear whatever you want. Dai Huabin isn't some big shot."
However, after returning to Her dormitory, She still opened the wardrobe and rummaged through it for ten minutes.
...
The next morning.
The sun was shining brightly, and the sky was a clear, clean blue.
Dai Huabin and His group started from the outer courtyard and walked along the stone bridge connecting the inner and outer courtyards towards Poseidon Island.
The line was quite long.
Leading the way were Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu, who walked side by side at the very front.
Zhu Lu was dressed in a black outfit today, with Her hair tied in a high ponytail, looking neat and tidy.
Dai Huabin was still wearing that white school uniform, His long golden hair standing out in the morning light.
Following behind were Wang Dong'er, Xiao Xiao, and Cui Yajie.
Wang Dong'er walked in the middle, Her long, light blue hair draped over Her shoulders, Her face bearing Her usual indifferent expression.
Xiao Xiao was skipping and jumping around, showing no signs of nervousness whatsoever.
Cui Yajie remained quiet, Her long pink hair swaying gently in the wind.
Xue Di walked at the back of the procession, dressed in a white dress, and walked without making a sound.
Bing Di doesn't have student status, so She couldn't come today.
When She left in the morning, She was sitting at the dormitory entrance eating an apple. She yelled at Dai Huabin, "Bring me something delicious when you come back," but Xue Di gave Her a cold look and shut Her up.
Ning Tian rejoined the main force midway through the journey.
"Hua Bin," Ning Tian greeted Him, looking quite well.
Dai Huabin nodded.
The group arrived at the shore of Poseidon Lake, where Mu Jin was waiting.
"Hua Bin, you've arrived." Mu Jin looked at Her students with a smile on Her face.
"Teacher Mu Jin," Dai Huabin and the others said in unison.
Afterward, Mu Jin told Dai Huabin and the others that they would have to go to Poseidon Island on their own.
Going to Poseidon Island would be a test for them.
However, for Dai Huabin, these were all too trivial.
