Chapter 148 Dong'er, I'm here...
Standing before the Sea God Pavilion, gazing at the towering ancient tree, at this moment, there are no other words, only silent contemplation.
"What is he doing?" Inside the Sea God Pavilion, a pair of pinkish-blue eyes never left Su Yu from beginning to end.
"It's nothing. Perhaps he's talking to Elder Mu about something..."
Elder Xuan didn't say anything more and turned to leave.
After a long silence, Su Yu sat quietly on the grass in front of the peaceful Sea God Pavilion, his eyes slightly closed.
Only after nightfall could one faintly hear a voice say, "Long time no see..."
The next day.
Su Yu still couldn't see Wang Dong. Perhaps, the next time he saw him would be at the Sea God's Fate.
On Poseidon Island, groups of two or three students from the inner academy, dressed in red school uniforms, gathered toward the venue for the Poseidon's Fate Blind Date Event.
To be precise, Su Yu is not yet a full-fledged inner court student, but given his outstanding contributions, he is permitted to enter the inner court without taking the entrance exam.
The male trainees who had gathered were all on the shore, while the opposite side of the lake was shrouded in mist, making it impossible to see anything clearly. If Su Yu wanted to, he could even pinpoint how many people were on the other side and who they were. But if they were to actually make that exchange, it would lose its meaning.
Just as everyone had finished gathering, a large ship slowly sailed in from a distance. On board sat the teachers of the inner academy, as well as Yan Shaozhe, Xian Lin'er, Qian Duoduo, Cai Mei'er, and a group of others. It could be said that almost all the high-ranking members of the academy were here.
To put it bluntly, once this ship of people is wiped out, the three great empires will no longer be able to resist the Sun Moon Empire's attack.
That being said, besides Di Tian, who else could kill everyone on this ship?
Amidst the expectant gazes of everyone, this Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event can also be described as the official start of Shrek's "If You Are the One" dating show.
Everyone knows better than anyone how dull and boring college life is; they're practically driven mad by boredom. This rare opportunity to win the heart of a beauty is an irresistible temptation for these hot-blooded young men.
The large ship did not sail towards them, but instead stopped in the middle of Poseidon Lake.
Just then, beams of light suddenly shot out from the lake, and under the shimmering light, eighteen figures appeared first.
That's right, it's the Eighteen Paths, because this time there's an extra Ma Xiaotao compared to the original story.
Gazing at this breathtakingly beautiful scenery, many students couldn't contain their excitement.
All eighteen beams of light were pale gold, and within each beam stood a girl in a long white dress. The eighteen girls were dressed exactly the same; from their appearance, it was impossible to tell them apart.
Looking at this beautiful scenery, for some reason, Su could feel the hormones emanating from the air.
As the two white beams of light converged, two figures appeared. Standing on the left was Bei Bei, dressed in a white long dress, and on the right was Senior Sister Zhang Lexuan, dressed in a pale yellow long dress.
More than two years had passed, and Senior Sister was still as gentle and quiet as ever. Although Elder Mu's departure had been a great blow to her, she had not succumbed to despair. In fact, Su Yu knew that her feelings for Elder Mu were no less than those for Huo Yuhao and Bei Bei.
Once everything was ready, Beibei's voice drifted from afar, "Sea God's Fate at Sea God Lake, Shrek Academy for millennia, love sealed in a single day. Welcome everyone to the shores of Sea God Lake on this beautiful night. The annual Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event is about to begin."
"As the host of this grand event, on behalf of myself and my senior sister, I wish all the inner court students who have come to participate in the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event today to find their own love and happiness. At the same time, I would also like to welcome all the elders and teachers of the Sea God Pavilion who are here to witness the ceremony today."
"Here, on behalf of the students, I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to all the teachers. Without your patient guidance and help, we would not have achieved what we have today." After saying this, he placed his hand on his chest and gestured slightly towards the ferry boat.
Elder Xuan, the master of the Sea God Pavilion, smiled slightly, nodded to Bei Bei, and raised his hand to indicate that Bei Bei could continue.
It has to be said that it's no wonder that these old guys are all so lively and energetic. They can see such a grand matchmaking event every year. How could they not be in a good mood?
You old folks are all shrewd and clever!
As expected of Beibei, she truly possesses a talent for brainwashing as a leader, and her words made many trainees start to feel nervous.
"Now, all male students who have participated in today's Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event, please prepare yourselves. Forty beams of light will appear in the lake shortly. Students who are closest to us, the Sea God's Lake Fairies, will proceed to the first round first. Students who are further back may not be able to obtain a suitable ranking in the first round."
"So everyone, please be careful. No matter how you land on the water lily leaf where the light pillar is, you've secured a spot. But whatever you do, don't fall into the water, or you'll be disqualified."
Beibei has made her point very clearly, and everyone knows what to do next.
"Everyone get ready, three, two, one."
"start!"
With Bei Bei's command, forty beams of light suddenly shot out from under the lake. These forty beams of light were divided into three rows, with one extra beam in the first row. It is estimated that this extra beam was added by Su Yu temporarily, otherwise, according to the calculation in the original work, there should only be thirty-nine beams.
Just as Beibei finished speaking, everyone felt a blur before their eyes, and countless fragments flew out like water droplets, instantly appearing in a space of tens of meters in radius.
Before anyone could react, a figure moved across the fragments at an incredible speed. In the blink of an eye, just as everyone had left, this figure appeared on the first pillar of light!
"Who is that person? We don't think we've ever seen him before!"
Even the flying soul masters who had the advantage were left far behind by that figure. An unfamiliar inner court student actually overpowered everyone and appeared on the first water lily at a speed that crushed everyone else. What kind of strength could achieve this?
Of course, the other inner court students also displayed their extraordinary abilities, with dazzling soul rings appearing one after another, vying to fly towards the Sea God Lake. In an instant, all sorts of dazzling soul skills, soul tools, and martial souls appeared one after another.
He Caitou and Huo Yuhao both ended up in the first row, in the middle.
As for Dai Huabin, he secured the first position in the second row through his own efforts. It wasn't that he was weak, but rather that the inner court was too strong, considering that he had only recently entered the inner court.
The others also found their places, though the process was a mix of joy and sorrow, and among them, Xu Sanshi, who was known as a scoundrel, was a prime example.
Xu Sanshi, that scoundrel, truly lived up to his name. Just as an inner court senior was about to grab a seat in the back of the first row, a strange fluctuation suddenly occurred. By the time the unfortunate senior realized what was happening, he was already in the second row.
"Senior, I'm sorry, I'll take your seat for now." Looking at Xu Sanshi's sly smile, the senior could only helplessly steady himself in the second row.
"Xu Sanshi, you bastard!" The Soul Saint senior sighed helplessly. If it weren't for the rules of the Sea God's Fate that forbade attacking Xu Sanshi, Xu Sanshi would probably be beaten into a garlic clove turtle by now.
It's fortunate that it happened at this time; otherwise, whether Xu Sanshi could even leave the inner courtyard tomorrow would be a serious question. He would either be a coward or a timid turtle; he would have to choose one.
"Senior, this is all about ability. You know I'm only interested in one thing out of many, so don't try to take it from me!"
What's most infuriating is that Xu Sanshi, having gained an advantage, still acted innocent and didn't forget to turn around and mock him.
"You bastard Xu Sanshi, with me here today, even if you succeed, I'll beat you into a coward!"
Finally, Zhang Lexuan smiled and said, "Alright, Sanshi, stop fooling around."
After hearing the senior sister's gentle voice, the male students all stood up respectfully, afraid of leaving a bad impression on her.
If there truly are women in this world whose beauty prevents one from harboring any impure thoughts, then in the Douluo Continent, it would only be Senior Sister Zhang Lexuan.
Perhaps when you were young and first met your senior sister, you felt a youthful and impetuous admiration for her. But after you shed your naivety, all that remained for you was respect and admiration.
This is the goddess of everyone in the inner courtyard, this is Senior Sister Zhang Lexuan.
After Zhang Lexuan's reminder, the tense atmosphere dissipated considerably.
"This first step requires your close cooperation. If you don't work hard, you might not even see the girls behind you. If that happens, you'll suffer later. Beibei, let's begin."
Zhang Lexuan's gaze swept over the many male students, finally settling on Su Yu, a barely perceptible smile appearing on her lips.
Beibei followed suit and said, "Since Senior Sister has spoken, I won't say anything more. The matchmaking event is divided into five stages. Once you fall into the water, regardless of gender, you will be eliminated."
"Then please begin your first segment: mutual respect."
After the senior sister and Beibei provided further explanations, the first segment officially began.
"Su Yu, are you ready?" Bei Bei asked Su Yu, who was standing in the first position.
That's right, the figure who appeared in the first position the fastest back then was Su Yu. You should know that Su Yu was able to defeat Ji Juechen two years ago, and his strength two years later is on a completely different level.
Even without the aid of a soul tool, Su Yu could decapitate a six-ring Soul Emperor, the Second Holy Spirit, with a single sword strike. After the Second Holy Spirit was killed, his head fell to the feet of the Great Holy Spirit, and with even greater speed, Su Yu delivered a punch that severely injured the Great Holy Spirit. This speed was so great that even a Soul Saint might not be able to match Su Yu's, let alone the fact that Su Yu had used a soul skill.
Su Yu is now wearing a black and white robe. Although he is not wearing the inner academy's uniform, no one dares to question him.
Wearing a long robe, Su Yu had a rare solemn expression on his face. Under the light, his already handsome appearance was even more like that of an otherworldly immortal. Don't forget, Su Yu is quite good-looking, even though he has never relied on his looks to make a living.
Su Yu nodded, then said, "No problem, let's begin."
Su Yu slowly opened his right hand, as if an invisible wind was gathering in his palm. He did not rush towards the girls opposite him, but slowly stepped out of the water lily and onto the water's surface.
With each step he took, ripples spread across the water, but Su Yu did not sink. In this way, Su Yu slowly arrived in front of the second one.
She slowly began to speak, "Although I'm a bit late coming back, I'm not really that stupid, right, Dong'er?"
"Su Yu, you..." The second girl's voice trembled slightly, and her melodious voice made Su Yu feel his heart rate drop.
"Dong'er, could you please take off my straw hat?"
Under everyone's gaze, Su Yu knelt on one knee and addressed the girl in front of him, who was called Dong'er.
"Wow, is this really Su Yu? How did he know? Who told him?" Even the scoundrel Xu Sanshi exclaimed in surprise.
"No, Su Yu has been sitting in front of the Sea God Pavilion ever since he came back. No one has seen Su Yu in this world."
Even He Caitou was surprised by this scene; he hadn't expected Su Yu to know about it.
"This, this, this..."
Huo Yuhao had originally intended to use his mental detection to help Su Yu uncover more secrets, but given the current situation, it seemed that nothing was needed anymore.
"sure……"
Without the slightest hesitation, the second girl ripped off her straw hat, revealing her stunningly beautiful face, just like the one that had amazed everyone on the field in the past. At that moment, everyone cast envious glances at her.
Even if the most beautiful women on the Sea God Lake were to be compared to Wang Dong’s every smile and word in front of Su Yu.
Reaching out, she grasped Su Yu's hand and gently pulled him up. Their eyes met, and perhaps just like on the shores of the Sea God Lake in the past, the wind and smoke and you both entered their gazes.
"You hid it very well, but even though I'm a bit slow and stupid, I'm not so slow that I can't tell who you are. The reason I chose to return to the family back then was for this day to come. I've waited too long for this day, Dong'er, I love you..."
The moment Su Yu stepped onto the water lilies of the Sea God Lake, he had already spotted Wang Dong. The reason he wanted to be number one was to make Wang Dong the most dazzling goddess!
For no reason other than that you are the person I, Su Yu, love, and you are my wife!
Thank you Shaohan, Yi Nian Zhizhu, and Qing Yang Zhizi for the generous donations.
Thank you for your trust, Mo Shang, the second uncle downstairs, Nan Nan Nan Nan Nan Nan, Call of Duty WM, and the shameless red and white who are very cute for your monthly tickets.
