As the hosts Xixi and Bei Bei's voices fell, countless bright red silks were lowered from the tall city towers not far away, instantly adding a touch of festivity to this Sea God's Fate Blind Date Convention.
The festive sounds, from the first light of dawn, resounded throughout Rising Sun City. And as the dazzling sun slowly climbed in the sky, that festive atmosphere became even more intense.
Bang, bang!
Ceremonial cannons sounded, attracting the attention of countless people. On the tower of the new Shrek City, two rows of well-trained soul engineer soldiers were lined up in a single file.
Gou Luanshi was impressively in the ranks. Beside him were the high-level soul engineers he had carefully selected from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineer Legion. As these people attacked together, a high-energy compressed array soul tool shield, with a spatial origin stone added as its core formation, slowly unfolded.
As the dazzling sun gradually climbed high, the festivity of the entire Rising Sun City finally reached its peak. Countless cheers gathered together, rushing straight into the clouds.
The huge plaza was now decorated with red as far as the eye could see. The Shrek teacher team, dressed in red robes, filled the eyes like a red tide.
Gou Luanshi indifferently looked down at the crowd below. Nine soul rings rose from under his feet one by one, immediately causing a wave of shocked exclamations.
This young man looked to be only about seventeen years old, yet he was actually a Titled Douluo!
Just now, everyone had been secretly praising Xie Huanyue for his eight rings. Many powers had even made plans to win over Xie Huanyue afterward, and were even prepared to show goodwill to the new People's Republic of Heavenly Soul, which was headed by Marshal Xie Long.
But now, a new legend had shockingly appeared before their eyes.
Why didn't he participate in the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Convention? Countless young girls in love thought this.
Gou Luanshi seemed to enjoy this kind of gaze. He glanced at the figure in the wheelchair in the dark, and then said, "Today is a great and joyous day. On behalf of Shrek Academy, I welcome the arrival of guests from all parties. I am Gou Luanshi, the new dean of Shrek Academy."
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone was shocked.
This young man, who looked to be only seventeen or eighteen years old, was actually the new dean of Shrek Academy?
"Silence!" The Dragon God Douluo Mu En's aura suddenly swept across the entire venue. That pressure, which belonged exclusively to a quasi-god, actually made the entire venue fall silent in an instant.
Countless people felt towering waves in their hearts. Undoubtedly, Mu En's voice was to back up this young man named Gou Luanshi. This was also a direct recognition of his identity as the new dean, regardless of age.
"The main purpose of this Sea God's Fate Blind Date Convention is to promote the exchange between the younger generation of the continent, as well as the friendly exchanges between the major sects and academies. I believe that most of the heroes present have already found their own beloved. Here, I express my heartfelt congratulations to you all!"
Applause first began to sound from the surrounding military camps. Among the ten thousand young talents present, whether they believed it or not, the under-eighteen Titled Douluo before them was already the de facto dean of Shrek Academy. Naturally, they could not let him lose face.
Most importantly, if this Gou Luanshi was really a Titled Douluo, then he had undoubtedly broken the record and created history.
"Now, let's welcome the protagonist of the final segment of this Sea God's Fate Blind Date Convention, the Phoenix Holy Maiden, Ma Xiaotao!"
Gou Luanshi's voice sounded over the extremely quiet plaza. Immediately, streaks of gazes followed him to look behind him. And then they saw a woman in a red wedding dress, her cheeks also completely covered by a drooping red curtain, being surrounded by dozens of beautiful maids, like the moon surrounded by stars, slowly walking towards the high platform in the center of the city tower.
Looking at the protagonist of today who had appeared, the applause in the plaza became much denser. Countless people looked up at her with anticipation. If they could really marry such an outstanding woman, it would be enough to make many people feel envious.
However, as everyone was applauding, no one saw that the bride, who was being supported by the maids as she walked slowly, had a slight, puppet-like stiffness in her steps.
A maid beside Gou Luanshi held the red knot in her hand, and then led Ma Xiaotao to the high platform under the watchful eyes of the countless gazes in the plaza.
Under the gazes of countless people, a pair of jade-like slender hands emerged from the sleeves, and then tore off the red curtain on her head. And as the red curtain was removed, a beautiful face as white as snow appeared in everyone's sight. That familiar appearance was shockingly the former Phoenix Holy Maiden of the Holy Spirit Cult, Ma Xiaotao of the Sinful Desire Demon Phoenix martial soul!
Ma Xiaotao, who had torn off the red curtain, had her bright eyes slightly lowered, her gaze flickering, but she never looked at the crowd. And as she lowered her head, the voice next to her, which made her feel extremely disgusted, once again sounded with a cold laugh.
"Rest assured, if that Huo Yuhao doesn't come, I will marry you to the power that is most in line with the academy's interests. As for whether you want them to marry a corpse or a living person, that will be up to you."
"Dog Luanshi, to think you would use such despicable means to win over powers. You truly are a good dean..."
"When I have captured that Huo Yuhao, I hope to hear you beg me for him." Hearing the ridicule in Ma Xiaotao's words, Gou Luanshi's face twitched, and a fierce glint flashed across his eyes. But his voice became calm.
Ma Xiaotao did not make another sound. No matter what the result was, her heart was completely dead.
Shrek, this faith she once had, had completely collapsed.
Below the city tower, countless people looked up at the beauty on the high platform, their eyeballs almost bulging out.
Undoubtedly, Ma Xiaotao herself was born extremely beautiful, especially with the tragic look on her face now, it was enough to arouse the protective instincts of countless people. In terms of appearance, she might not be as exquisite as Tang Wutong, but her advantage was that mature and bewitching charm. One had to know, her martial soul was the Sinful Domain Demon Phoenix, which had advanced further on the basis of preserving the evil fire!
In terms of charm, apart from a natural charmer like Zhongli Yu, there was absolutely no one in the current world who could compare to Ma Xiaotao.
"Wow—"
A burst of cheers erupted from the eliminated boys. Screams and whistles were incessant. Even many men who had already found a partner couldn't help but be slightly dazed.
This woman was absolutely a first-class stunner in this world!
"May I ask how this marriage proposal will proceed?" Someone had already shouted impatiently, determined to win Ma Xiaotao.
Gou Luanshi was very satisfied with the atmosphere in the field. Among Huo Yuhao's women, apart from Ma Xiaotao, the others simply couldn't create such an effect. Even the equally foxy Cui Yajie was still too green now.
Of course, those few, Ju Zi, Cui Yajie, and Ning Tian, had been well protected by that old fool Jing Hongchen these years. Even if he and Xu Tianran had the intention to capture one or two of them, they were powerless. Moreover, Xu Tianran's ascension to the throne still needed the support of Illustrious Virtue Hall. At such a critical moment, even if Mu En was willing to help, Xu Tianran would not want to see it.
Jing Hongchen owed Huo Yuhao a pile of favors. Thanks to Huo Yuhao's gift, his grandson Xiao Hongchen had been able to reach the Soul Sage pass without using any drugs. This favor was by no means insignificant. So no matter what, this conceited Dean of Illustrious Virtue Hall would not sit by and watch something happen to Ju Zi and the other girls in his Illustrious Virtue Hall.
Just a short while ago, he had received a message from Illustrious Virtue Hall. A group of men in black had attacked Illustrious Virtue Hall in an attempt to capture Ju Zi and the others. As a result, they were counter-killed by Cui Yajie in collaboration with an unknown expert.
An old fox-like smile appeared on Jing Hongchen's face. It seemed that the Demon King himself had gone to Ming Dou's side. And the reason why Gou Luanshi and Xu Tianran had not received the news of the failure was precisely because of the arrangements he had made in advance.
Calculating the time, that Demon King Huo Yuhao should have arrived at Rising Sun City long ago. He just didn't know where he was lurking!
The great battle is about to begin. I ask all readers to please give your full support to this book!
