"What kind of broken academy is this, broken academy!"
Wang Yan's voice was not loud, but most of the people present were powerful soul masters. His tearful accusations, in the eyes of the crowd, were like the impotent rage of a good-for-nothing.
The organizer, Shrek Academy, did not want the convention to be hindered because of individuals. Soon, several people pulled the foul-mouthed Wang Yan down.
"Noisy. Drag him out and chop him." Xu Tianran frowned slightly and gave the order.
"Yes." Gou Luanshi replied expressionlessly, bowed to the Crown Prince, turned, and walked away.
Wang Yan's appearance was like a small interlude. The segment of Fated for Three Lives was still ongoing.
Because the boys had basically shown their best side, the girls already had their choices in mind, so the speed of this segment would naturally not be slow.
About an hour later, except for the hundred or so fairies who had not yet unveiled their conical hats, the rest of the girls had all stood beside the boys they had long admired.
Seeing that the convention had reached this point, Bei Bei announced in a loud voice, "After Fated for Three Lives, we will begin the fifth segment—A Hundred Years of Harmonious Union."
"In this segment of A Hundred Years of Harmonious Union, after the priority given to the girls in the previous four segments, the final decision-making power reverses and is handed over to the boys. The boys can make the final decision on the girl they choose. If the one you choose is the girl who chose you before, and there are no other competitors, then congratulations to you. But once competitors appear, we will enter the bride-snatching segment. Among all our five segments, this segment of A Hundred Years of Harmonious Union has the greatest variables and is also an important moment to show everyone's strength and charm. So, please be sure to prepare well."
Xixi added, "The rules for the bride-snatching segment are as follows. If a boy chooses a girl who did not choose him, then that girl has the right to challenge him. Once the challenge is successful, then that boy will lose the chance to choose and will be eliminated directly. Only by winning can he choose. Of course, if you can win sympathy, or if the girl who chose you lets you go, you can also choose again. If the girl chosen again has already chosen another boy, then the consent of that boy will be sought first. If he has also chosen this girl, then the two boys will compete. The loser is out, and the winner will have one chance to confess to that girl again."
Xixi continued, "And if multiple girls choose the same boy, if that boy chooses one of them, then the other two girls can also issue a challenge. Here I must emphasize again that during the challenge, we will use various methods to keep the levels as balanced as possible."
"It sounds a bit complicated, but once this segment begins, everyone will quickly understand. Bei Bei and I will control the bride-snatching segment. Let's start according to the girls' number order. Tuohai, in the segment of A Hundred Years of Harmonious Union, you are the first to choose. If you are willing, please state your intention and take her hand."
Tuohai was currently standing on the Lotus Flower martial soul released by Hua Yao. Hearing this, he smiled slightly and said, "When the Lotus Fairy came before me, I had already made my choice. Sea God's Fate on the Sea God's Lake, I have found the fate that belongs to me. Hua Yao is my only choice. I am also very grateful that she could give me a chance to get to know her. I will strive to cherish it."
Listening to Tuohai's calm words, a complicated look appeared on Hua Yao's face. She extended her right hand. The lotus flower under Tuohai's feet automatically carried his body forward, coming before Hua Yao, and he took her hand.
Bei Bei smiled, "Let us congratulate this couple. Our segment of A Hundred Years of Harmonious Union, the first pair has successfully held hands. If any boy wants to snatch the bride, you can propose it now." Because no female student was competing for Tuohai, the only ones with the chance to snatch the bride at this time were the other male students.
In the past, the success rate of the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Convention was actually not too high, but this session was surprisingly successful. From the current situation, counting Xu Sanshi, Tang Wutong, Tuohai, and Hua Yao, there was at least a chance of two successful pairs. What's more, most of the other fairies also had their choices. As the hosts, Xixi and Bei Bei were not only filled with emotion but also had a great sense of accomplishment.
Moreover, the young people who came to participate in the convention this time were all future experts of the continent. Very few people were willing to offend a talented individual with formidable strength.
The Sea God's Lake was quiet. After waiting for about ten seconds, Bei Bei and Zhang Lexuan said in unison, "Congratulations to Tuohai and Hua Yao for completing the segment of A Hundred Years of Harmonious Union. Sea God's Fate on the Sea God's Lake, may this fate accompany you forever. The ceremony is complete."
Applause and cheers sounded at the same time. Under the witness of the crowd, Hua Yao also got onto her own lotus flower. The lotus flower floated outwards, carrying the two of them gliding into the Sea God's Lake. Petals scattered, dancing in the air with a pinkish light.
The two turned around, waved at the crowd, and gradually moved away. Their love story officially began from this moment. Although Hua Yao was not truly moved by this boy named Tuohai, she had no choice but to sacrifice her own heart for the glory and future of Shrek.
Compared to the previous few segments, A Hundred Years of Harmonious Union was undoubtedly taken more seriously. Whichever party made the choice had to consider their own future and the interests of the power behind them.
The pair of Ji Juechen and Jing Ziyan had no such worries. The two had kissed directly just now. They had both been students of the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. As one of the organizers, the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy could only offer them blessings.
And the one who had proactively sought out Zimu was Ke Ke, who, in the original timeline, was also one of Xuan Ziwen's students. Unfortunately, in Zimu's heart, there was still a trace of lingering thought for Ju Zi. He felt that Ju Zi was still among the hundred or so fairies whose conical hats had not yet been unveiled. Therefore, he rejected Ke Ke.
Seeing more and more Shrek students successfully pairing up, the hosting enthusiasm of Bei Bei and Xixi also reached its peak.
On the tall building, the several recorders beside Xu Tianran and Gou Luanshi were writing furiously, recording the sect prodigies who had married into Shrek Academy and the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy. As long as they gradually developed feelings for each other during their time together, they wouldn't have to worry about the sect powers behind these people breaking free from the Sun Moon Empire's control.
Gou Luanshi looked down at the hundred or so fairies whose conical hats had not yet been unveiled. The subordinates he had sent to Ming Dou to capture Huo Yuhao's women had not yet replied. He was afraid they had run into trouble.
Clearly, Xie Huanyue and most of his Straw Hat Brigade were here. Could it be that Huo Yuhao had gone to Illustrious Virtue Hall alone first?
As Gou Luanshi thought this, he picked up the soul tool communicator in his hand, communicated briefly with the two hosts, and signaled them to speed up the process.
Immediately, a cruel arc lifted on his face. Huo Yuhao, ah, Huo Yuhao, if you don't come to the blind date event, then none of your companions will be spared. All of them will have to answer for it here!
Not far behind him, Wang Yan's lifeless corpse lay horizontally in the shadows. This mediocre and lecherous teacher had finally met his miserable end.
At this time, Cheng Chang'an had successfully tied the knot with Gu Xiaoli, while Liu Furong had taken Zhu Lu's hand. These few were Gou Luanshi's financial backers from his previous life. They had colluded with him to cyberbully Die'zi and were the accomplices who had provided Gou Luanshi with a large amount of operational funds.
Gou Luanshi sent them his blessings. No matter which life, in the initial stages, he could not do without the help of Cheng Chang'an and the others.
Now, the final moment had arrived. All that was left was for the crowned king to enter the stage!
As for Dai Huabin, who was growing distant from Zhu Lu, his attention was focused on the hundred or so fairies in the distance whose conical hats had not yet been unveiled. Just now, a girl with excellent looks had also chosen him, but his thoughts had drifted back three years ago, to the frowns and smiles of that foxy young girl.
Is Cui Yajie among these hundred or so people?
He had received news that after Huo Yuhao had sent his companions to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy back then, he had vanished from the continent without a trace, only reappearing more than a month ago.
And Cui Yajie was one of Huo Yuhao's companions who had stayed at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Academy for advanced studies three years ago.
In order to see this girl again, Dai Huabin had stayed at the academy these past few years, contributing to Shrek's revival, while constantly inquiring about Cui Yajie's news.
Huo Yuhao was merely a person about to die. Once that world-plaguing demon king was dead, Cui Yajie might just throw herself back into the arms of him, the second young master of the White Tiger!
