Standing in the number fifteen spot, Sea Fairy was clearly Ye Xinglan. She glanced sideways at Gu Yue beside her and whispered, "It's my turn now, Gu Yue."
Gu Yue nodded slightly, "Yeah, go ahead!"
Thereupon, Ye Xinglan directly released her Martial Soul, allowing her pair of pure white long legs to lightly step atop the Star God Sword, exuding a unique charm...
Following that, her gaze shifted toward the male students in the front and then focused on Xu Lizhi...
Xu Lizhi, naturally, was gazing intently at her, thinking to himself, "Sister Xinglan... will she choose me?"
Even though he already knew the answer in his heart, under such circumstances, one could not help but feel somewhat anxious...
Ye Xinglan took a deep breath and said out loud, "Lizhi! We've been together for quite some time now, haven't we?"
Xu Lizhi replied earnestly, "Yes! From the time we started at the Junior College until now, we've known each other for almost ten years! Sister Xinglan, I remember all of it very clearly!"
Every single second spent with Ye Xinglan was a beautiful memory!
So, he would forever keep it in his mind!
Upon hearing his words, Ye Xinglan's lips curved into a smile, "Yes, we've had nearly ten years of friendship, and even after all this time, I still remember the silly way you followed me around! But back then, you were always being bullied by others!"
"However, thinking about it, if it weren't for those times, we might not have gotten to know each other!"
Xu Lizhi scratched his head in his naive way, "Hmm... Back then, Sister Xinglan, you were quite famous within the academy, and not someone from my world!"
Ye Xinglan's expression softened progressively, "However, now, all of those are just things of the past. Today, to be able to hear what's in your heart, I really feel gratified!"
"Because, if the little fool I've protected all these years were taken away by someone else, I would be very confused!"
Xu Lizhi's body suddenly trembled, as if he had understood something, he exclaimed in astonishment, "Sister Xinglan... do you mean..."
Ye Xinglan interrupted, "That's right, even before I entered the Inner Court, I had already regarded you as my lifelong partner, but silly you probably never noticed that! From the beginning to the end, you treated me as your sister!"
"Clearly, my waiting was not in vain, for you've finally come to your senses."
Xu Lizhi took a deep breath, staring blankly at her, at a loss for words...
Turns out, Sister Xinglan had always loved him, but he was too ignorant to notice her feelings for him!
At this thought, the corners of his eyes began to swell with redness...
"Sister Xinglan"
Ye Xinglan said tenderly, soothing him, "Don't cry. There are so many students watching us."
Xu Lizhi forcibly contained his desire to cry and said earnestly, "Sister Xinglan, although I'm just a support-class Soul Master, if anyone dares to lay a hand on you, they'll have to step over my corpse first!"
Ye Xinglan's beautiful eyes gleamed with a hint of amusement, "Then, how about we start by losing weight as the first step?"
Xu Lizhi choked up suddenly, "This..."
Delicacies were his only hobby!
And Ye Xinglan seemed to know this as well, not urging him, just looking at him with a trusting gaze...
"What's there to hesitate about? Are those mere satiating delicacies more important, or is a woman who will stay by your side for life more important? It's clear without even thinking, right?"
"Wuwuwu... If the person I liked was me, I would be content even with just one meal a day!"
"Exactly! Xu Lizhi is really playing coy after getting a bargain, to think he's hesitating!"
Xie Xie covered his mouth and coughed, "Lizhi, if you don't agree to lose weight, Xing Lan might leave you, you know!"
Tang Wulin also reminded him, "Yes, but making a promise without taking action is likely to lead to even greater disappointment from Xinglan, Lizhi. You must think it through!"
Xu Lizhi suddenly snapped out of his thoughts and slapped himself...
What on earth was he thinking? The importance of Sister Xinglan and food are not on the same level at all!
Immediately, he responded, "Sister Xinglan, I promise I will seriously lose weight from now on! I absolutely will not let down your trust! If I don't manage to do it, I..."
Suddenly, Ye Xinglan appeared next to Xu Lizhi like an apparition, her finger lightly touching his lips...
"You don't need to say that! I believe in you!"
Witnessing this, Xu Lizhi reached out, intending to embrace her...
But he was abruptly interrupted by Cai Yue'er's cold voice, "Xu Lizhi, we are at the Sea God's Fate Matchmaking Event. You mustn't make such a gesture right now!"
Startled like a frightened bird, he recoiled and nearly tumbled into Sea God's Lake...
...
The Sea Fairies, glancing towards number twenty-three, whispered among themselves, "It's almost the exchange student from the Xingluo Empire's turn. I wonder if she truly intends to confess to Elder Xu!"
"Humph, she's already been warned by Senior Sister Mei'er. She better not stir up trouble!"
"I don't believe she has the guts to say it! Of course, even if she did, Elder Xu would surely reject her!"
"Although that's true... the soul power rank of this exchange student has reached the astonishing level of Soul King, and she's a student from Monster Academy!"
One of the Sea Fairies, looking at the unfazed Shen Yi, couldn't help but ask, "Teacher Shen, aren't you worried at all?"
Shen Yi came to her senses and replied softly, "Worrying won't solve anything, but I believe Xu Sheng won't choose her!"
She wasn't certain Xu Sheng would choose her, but... at the very least, he wouldn't choose this young girl from the Xingluo Empire!
Her response immediately garnered the admiration of the Sea Fairies, "Truly worthy of being Teacher Shen, so confident in Teacher Xu! Just for that, she's beyond comparison with that Dai Yun'er."
"I can't wait to see the look on that guy's face after she's rejected!"
Cai Yue'er paused before introducing, "Next up, we have our number twenty-three Sea Fairy, who is the exchange student from the Xingluo Empire, Dai Yun'er!"
Of course, she did not reveal Yun'er's identity, as that might provoke dissatisfaction among more students!
Hearing this, Dai Yun'er replied very politely, "Thank you for the introduction, Academy President Cai! I'm honored to participate in the Sea God's Fate Matchmaking Event as an exchange student!"
This act made Cai Yue'er nod slightly...
Despite being somewhat willful in certain aspects, this Dai Yun'er indeed did not discredit the Xingluo Empire in terms of etiquette!
Xie Xie curiously asked, "It's Dai Yun'er's turn, huh? I wonder who she will choose. Could it be Wulin?"
Tang Wulin frowned, "Me? I'm not familiar with Dai Yun'er; we've hardly met a few times!"
Xie Xie arched an eyebrow, "And how many times have you met these Sea Fairies around you, hm?"
With that short sentence, Tang Wulin fell silent...
