After entering Shrek Academy and crossing the sparkling Seagod Lake under the light, Ling Bai stepped onto the Seagod Island, only to find a large sign erected on the island with four crooked words written on it.
Men on the left, women on the right.
"Another job..."
Ling Bai was speechless, and walked to the right in disbelief.
"Stop right there, you're ignoring the warning sign, right?"
An old man with a white beard fell from the sky, cursing.
"Long time no see. How is your health, Mr. Li?" Ling Bai asked with a smile.
The visitor was Elder Li, who used to be in charge of the Shrek Supervisory Office and the Inner Court Examination Hall. He was happy to see Ling Bai, but suddenly remembered his responsibilities. He quickly put away his big teeth and acted impartially:
"Everything is normal for me. Don't try to get close to me. There is a Sea God Matchmaking Conference these two days. There is a difference between men and women. Go to the side that you should go to."
"Blind dates every year..."
Ling Bai entered the Shrek Inner Court when he was eleven years old, and has studied there for a total of six years. Despite having spent a year and a half in Star Fighting training and two years in Mingdu, he still knew the procedures of the Inner Court very well.
The largest group activity in the inner courtyard, the Poseidon Dating Conference, will be held at this time.
The night before the blind date, male and female students will be separated into two places, which is called the singles night.
Since Mr. Li had condescended to act as a human searchlight, Ling Bai couldn't force his way into the crowd of girls, so he changed his route and headed to the boys' area on the west side of Poseidon Island.
The male students in the inner courtyard gathered by the Sea God Lake for a barbecue. White smoke curled up, sparks flew, and the aroma of meat could be smelled from ten miles away. There were also two large barrels of wine on the side for them to use.
"Please help me analyze this. Two years ago, I told a senior that I had broken through level 60. She smiled at me. Did she like me?"
Somewhere around a bonfire, Chu Qingtian rubbed his hands. Yao Haoxuan, Gong Yangmo, and Chen Zifeng, the three dog-headed military advisors, nodded repeatedly after listening, patting their chests and saying,
"She has a crush on me!"
"You could have just given me a perfunctory answer, but you insisted on smiling!"
"Hesitation leads to defeat, decisiveness never leads to failure!"
"Confidence is a man's first equipment!"
The three military advisors shouted louder and louder. Under their encouragement, the woman had reached the point where she was determined to be with Chu Qingtian, and she felt as if they had missed each other for three years when they didn't see him for a day.
Chu Qingtian was so fooled that he asked like a goose: "Then...what should I do tomorrow?"
The three of them looked at each other and laughed, "Listen to your brother, just confess your feelings directly, and you will definitely get the beauty!"
"How did you become an emotional counselor?"
A clear voice sounded above their heads. They subconsciously looked up and saw a familiar handsome face. They were immediately surprised and jumped three feet high.
"Brother Ling/Godfather!"
Ling Bai has always had a close relationship with them, including Chen Zifeng who was eliminated from the original Seven Monsters. They often practice and discuss kendo together on weekdays.
After a few pleasantries, Ling Bai looked at Chu Qingtian and asked, "Are you finally ready to confess your feelings?"
Upon hearing this, Chu Qingtian instantly clamped Pi Yanzi tightly. The person he wanted to chase was like an active volcano in the eyes of other students. If they disagreed with him, the volcano would erupt, and everyone would try to avoid him.
Somehow, he actually liked that kind of strong personality.
"Senior sister hasn't found a boyfriend in these years, so I want to give it a try. Brother Ling, do you think I can do it?"
Chu Qingtian asked as if asking for help. In front of that girl, his strength as a Soul Emperor was not enough and he urgently needed encouragement from others.
"The Sea God Fate Dating Conference is for the inner court disciples to fully demonstrate their abilities and boldly pursue the person they love." Ling Bai said, "She likes people who are brave and forward-looking. Don't be timid. Be decisive whether you succeed or fail."
"good!"
Chu Qingtian's eyes were blazing with fire. Let's go for it. The little kitten is climbing an active volcano!
Ling Bai picked up a skewer of meat, enjoying the delicious gravy and the ultimate flavor of the carefully prepared seasonings blooming in his mouth, and chatted casually:
"What about you, are you still single?"
Yao Haoxuan was like a deflated ball, pointing at Chen Zifeng and Gong Yangmo, gritting his teeth and saying, "Chen Zifeng and Xixi are together, Gong Yangmo...
This guy is popular with both men and women!"
Chen Zifeng showed a shy smile, Gong Yangmo flicked his long hair and said contemptuously: "Country dog, that's called charm knows no gender!"
Yao Haoxuan wanted to cry but had no tears: "I'm 24 years old and I haven't even held a little girl's hand!
I have been sentenced to a lifetime of loneliness by love, and I am not allowed to fight back! "
The four of them couldn't hold back their laughter. As one of the regular Shrek Seven Devils, Yao Haoxuan's strength and talent were impeccable, but his appearance that looked so much like a Maluo was really a drag.
The gender ratio in the inner courtyard is unbalanced, with more wolves than meat, and all the female students are geniuses among geniuses, and they have very high requirements for their other half, so Yao Haoxuan is naturally excluded.
Yao Haoxuan said bitterly: "I want to find a partner too, watch out for Poseidon Fate tomorrow!"
After that, he ran to the wine barrel, took a glass of red wine, and offered it to Ling Bai flatteringly: "Godfather, you are the worst among us, please pass on some experience!"
"What!?"
Ling Bai almost spit out the wine in his mouth: "Wait a minute, where did you get the word scum?"
"Don't pretend to be a foster father. Your reputation as a scumbag is well known to everyone in the entire Shrek inner courtyard!"
As soon as Yao Haoxuan said this, Chu Qingtian, Gong Yangmo and Chen Zifeng all nodded in agreement.
Chu Qingtian added: "Brother Ling, you may not know that after you disappeared during the surveillance mission, Senior Sister Han wanted to rush to Jialing City, Xiao Tao directly arrested the Hongchen siblings for interrogation, Dugu Lin wanted to execute the two of them, and Ling Luochen secretly expressed his support..."
Chen Zifeng said dimly, "If you two don't have some kind of ambiguous relationship, I won't believe it even if you kill me."
Gong Yangmo fiddled with his orchid fingers and said, "Now your reputation among the female students is only higher than Ye Liu, who has eight mistresses. You are firmly ranked second to last."
"It's so tragic. In two years I have collapsed into ruins."
Ling Bai took a sip of red wine, squinted his eyes, and quietly felt the gentleness of the moist evening breeze caressing his cheeks. There was no regret or sorrow in his tone.
"Of course not. Before entering the inner courtyard, the senior sisters will advise the junior sisters to spit on Ye Liu and stay away from Ling Bai, a low-class bastard who is obsessed with sex, and a scumbag who only flirts but never marries."
Yao Haoxuan stood on tiptoe and hugged Ling Bai's shoulders, whispering: "Godfather, please teach me a few tricks, I will learn a little bit and get rid of singleness!"
"Girls don't care what kind of 100,000-year soul bone it is."
Ling Bai said it calmly, and Yao Haoxuan felt a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat. A hundred thousand year old soul bone is a national treasure!
Most of the inner court disciples don't even have a ten thousand year soul bone!
You keep talking about a hundred thousand years!
Why not eat meat!
"I can't afford it, so I'd better stay single." Yao Haoxuan immediately gave up this sad topic.
"Brother Ling, who are you going to choose at the Poseidon Dating Conference?" Chu Qingtian asked curiously.
"Well, that's a good question..." Ling Bai fell into deep thought, "So can I not participate?"
"This year's Poseidon Festival has been postponed specially for exchange students and you. Your names are already on the list. Unless it's suddenly cancelled, you must participate." Gong Yangmo joked.
"Can I have both?"
"How dare you! Shrek advocates monogamy!"
The highlight he just discovered was rejected by Chen Zifeng in an instant, and Ling Bai held his forehead in pain.
Damn, this wave is coming for me!
The Shura Field is ten thousand times more terrifying than the Shura God!
...
The east side of Poseidon Island, the girls' area.
The girls in the inner courtyard gathered in twos and threes, tasting the delicacies prepared by the senior chefs of Shrek Academy, drinking rose-colored wine, and appreciating the beautiful night view of Poseidon Lake.
Zhang Lexuan, Han Ruoruo, Wu Ming, and Hua Yao, the four most senior female disciples in the inner courtyard, were naturally together.
Han Ruoruo seemed to be worried. She drank glass of wine one after another. She didn't stop until her pretty face turned red. She kept drinking.
"Sister Ruoruo, do you want to be the god of wine?" Wu Ming asked in surprise.
In her impression, Han Ruoruo advocated moderation in everything and would never indulge in drinking like she did today.
"Someone is back, and Ruoruo is upset."
Zhang Lexuan shook the deep red liquid in the cup and revealed the secret in one sentence.
Wu Ming reacted instantly and defended her bestie, saying, "What's so good about him? He's just handsome, talented, capable, has a strong background, a good personality, and is generous...
That's all!"
Hua Yao asked blankly: "Ming'er, are you sure this is all?"
Wu Ming was slightly startled, then snorted coldly: "Even if he is the best in the world, he can't bully Ruoruo! Yaoyao, I think you and Gu Fan are in a normal relationship, getting closer to each other step by step. I heard that you are ready to get engaged at Poseidon Fate."
"Um."
Hua Yao's face was red. She and Gu Fan were introverted. Although they were very close, they had never formally confessed their feelings to each other. They were determined to accept each other completely in Poseidon.
"Ruoruo, it's useless to just run away from yourself."
Zhang Lexuan stepped forward, stretched out her hand to hold Han Ruoruo's wine glass, and said seriously: "He is about to graduate from Shrek and return to the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect. It will be difficult for him to have the opportunity to come to Shrek Academy again in the future.
If you really can't let him go, then go and show your feelings. Whether you succeed or not, at least you have tried. You won't recall the fate of Poseidon that year on a certain night many years later, and the only emotion that arises in your heart is regret."
Han Ruoruo lowered her eyes, still looking extremely conflicted, her rosy face full of charm, she bit her red lips and said with a confused look in her eyes:
"Le Xuan, I understand everything you said.
He is the only person who has entered my heart over the years. After meeting him, my life has become colorful, and I feel that there is probably a place for me in his heart.
I am not young anymore, more than ten years older than him, and he is a disciple of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, so the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect must have high hopes for him.
With the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect's style of doing things for more than 10,000 years, all the combat soul masters from the outside world with outstanding talents will be combined with their direct descendants, the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Tower soul masters.
I am 100% sure that the wife chosen for him by the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect is the next generation sect leader, Junior Ning Tian.
The two of them have been childhood sweethearts and have a deep affection for each other. When Ning Tian participated in the college exchange student activities, he was able to leave Shrek Academy and chase her to Mingdu to accompany her for two years. This is the best proof that they recognize each other in their hearts.
He has grasped his own happiness. If I continue to get involved, it will only cause him more trouble and make him think that I am not a decent senior sister. It is better to just let it go. Maybe time will slowly dilute everything. "
Hua Yao sighed softly. She saw Han Ruoruo's sadness with her own eyes. While she felt pity for her, she couldn't help but become more satisfied with Gu Fan. It was okay if she couldn't be the best. A plain life could also be happiness.
"Sister Ruoruo, cheer up!"
Wu Ming grabbed Han Ruoruo, raised his chin towards the fiery red figure stretching in the distance, and said angrily:
"You just think too much and spoil him too much. If he dares to have impure thoughts towards you, he will have to bear the consequences of being a scumbag!
Look at Ma Xiaotao next door, she's obviously going to do something big!
Tomorrow is a blind date conference, not a wedding conference!
What's wrong with failure? It's better than swallowing your feelings!
It's true that Shrek Academy advocates monogamy, but the mainstream of the mainland is that only the strong are worthy of having more. He hooked up with several girls during his time in the inner courtyard. He is definitely not a pure and innocent good man who keeps himself clean.
I admit that the scumbag is indeed capable. If you express your feelings, he may even come to you on his own initiative and pave the way for you to be with him if he is greedy enough.
Sister Ruoruo, stand up!
Don't feel sorry for him, the scumbag deserves it! "
Han Ruoruo's dark eyes rekindled their flames. Wu Ming was right. Poseidon Fate was a platform for expressing one's feelings. She only needed to tell Ling Bai that he was in her heart. Their future direction depended on Ling Bai's choice.
If in the future he decides to settle down after understanding the situation and wants to live happily with Ning Tian from now on, she will restrain her emotions and give her her blessings. Once Ling Bai wants to reach out to her, she will have to deal with Ning Tian and let the next generation leader of the Jiubao Liuli Sect accept that she is not the only one.
"It seems Ruoruo has made a good choice."
Zhang Lexuan's eyes were gentle. She was inexplicably envious of Han Ruoruo, because Han Ruoruo and Ling Bai had feelings for each other. The library, the cafeteria, Shrek City... were all places where they had shared footprints.
However, Zhang Lexuan, the senior sister in the inner courtyard, had lost her love life long ago.
"Don't talk about me, Ming'er, what about you?" Han Ruoruo recovered and began to tease Wu Ming, "You keep saying you're looking for a boyfriend, but why don't you take any action?"
Wu Ming held her face in her hands and said, "Those men have bad taste. I am the Golden Crow Saint, and I have both beauty and figure, but no one dares to pursue me!"
"No, it seems like there is someone following you around all day long." Han Ruoruo reminded.
"Chu Qingtian?" Wu Ming waved his hand. "Every time he came to see me, he was trembling like a frightened quail, and he only asked me some cultivation questions."
Zhang Lexuan, Han Ruoruo, and Hua Yao looked at each other and seemed to understand why Wu Ming had been single all the time. His hot temper and irritability were one thing, and his strong mouth was another.
You can analyze other people's emotions very well, but when it comes to your own emotions, you suddenly collapse.
A true military advisor doesn't go to the battlefield!
"Ruoruo, Ming'er, Yaoyao, how about we make a bet?"
Hua Yao asked softly, "What are you betting on?"
Han Ruoruo and Wu Ming also pricked up their ears.
Zhang Lexuan smiled and said, "At the Sea God Fate Conference, girls will wear a hat to cover their faces, and boys have a part in which they have to try their best to take it off. If your hat is taken by a boy, then you must choose him in the part where girls choose boys..."
"Let's bet!"
