Chapter 131

"Qin Jian?"

At this moment, Zhu Zhuqing did not receive an answer from Qin Jian, so she turned her head to look at him and thus discovered his gaze.

She also looked over, and then saw that the old man responsible for registration had a look of uncertainty on his face; at this time, a young girl was standing in front of him, just withdrawing the hand she had extended.

This young girl was not accompanied by her parents; she was alone.

A simple, pale green long dress gave people a very clean feeling.

Her smooth, waist-length hair and height were about the same as Zhu Zhuqing's own; because she was facing away, her appearance could not be seen, but from the skin on her neck, one could tell that this girl's skin was very good, extremely tender and white.

"Excuse me, may I pass the preliminary test?"

The girl's voice was soft and pleasant to the ear, lacking a bit of heroic spirit, but it sounded soft and cottony, giving people a feeling of being softened.

From the way Dai Mubai looked at the girl from across the way, Zhu Zhuqing could guess that this girl must be very beautiful, because in Dai Mubai's evil eyes, there was a light like that of a wolf.

Of course, it was that kind of colored wolf.

"Hmph."

She let out a cold snort, and seeing Qin Jian's unblinking appearance, she became even more furious: "Is she that good-looking? It's just a back view!"

Qin Jian finally came back to his senses, withdrew his gaze, lowered it slightly, and then said softly: "She is the little princess of our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Rongrong."

Zhu Zhuqing was stunned for a moment, then asked: "How could your Sect Master let her come here to study?"

It wasn't Ning Shu who let her come; she followed me here herself...

Of course, he couldn't say it like that, so Qin Jian could only say: "For the sake of training, perhaps, and it also indirectly shows that this Shrek Academy is not as dilapidated as it appears on the surface."

Zhu Zhuqing nodded, finally feeling a bit expectant.

And the surprise on the old man's face across from them gradually faded, and he frowned: "Do your family members know you've come here?"

Ning Rongrong revealed a generous smile: "I came here with the consent of my family, Teacher need not worry."

The old man nodded, then waved at Dai Mubai and said: "She passed too."

Ning Rongrong then followed Dai Mubai's gesture and walked behind him, standing with Tang San and Xiao Wu.

Dai Mubai wanted to strike up a conversation with her, but discovered that this beautiful and generous girl's expression had suddenly changed, becoming dazed and foolish, as if her whole person had wandered off to another world.

He followed Ning Rongrong's line of sight and saw Qin Jian's well-fitted Sword Outfit, and then the quietly standing Zhu Zhuqing beside him.

His gaze also froze...

For Qin Jian and Ning Rongrong, this moment was exceptionally long.

Separated for several years, at this moment of meeting again, was there a stormy sea in their hearts? Or a gentle breeze and light rain?

They didn't know.

It was just that momentary eye contact, and countless memories flashed by like light and shadow...

The story of Zhang Xiaofan that year, the training and tempering of that year, the etiquette training of that year, the competition in the Soul Hunting Ground that year, the marriage contract set that year, the heart-wrenching separation of that year...

It was truly... A Glance for Ten Thousand Years!

"Long time... long time... no see."

Ning Rongrong's small hands were trembling slightly, but she was still trying very hard, struggling to control her expression, wanting to give Qin Jian a perfect reunion.

And so, the others saw this beautiful and moving girl, bit by bit, reveal a smile.

The smile was pure, without the slightest impurity, just like their first meeting many years ago...

"Long time no see..."

Qin Jian also smiled.

It was as if an invisible membrane had separated everyone else; whether it was Zhu Zhuqing beside Qin Jian or Tang San and the others beside Ning Rongrong, they were all separated by space and time.

Only the two of them, in a time and space belonging solely to each other, smiled and looked at each other...

"It's them."

At this time, Tang San's voice suddenly rang out, as if a 'crack' sound had shattered the invisible space-time barrier, instantly pulling Qin Jian and Ning Rongrong back into this space-time.

"Xiao Wu, aren't they the ones we met at the hotel two days ago?"

Tang San looked at Qin Jian curiously and said: "And he looks about the same age as me, yet he is a Soul Elder."

"A Soul Elder?!"

Everyone who heard him speak couldn't help but exclaim, and then they all stared at Qin Jian with a 'swish, swish, swish'.

Not receiving an answer from Xiao Wu, Tang San looked over strangely, only to see Xiao Wu with her arms crossed, head held high looking at the sky, not even glancing at Qin Jian, with an expression of disdain.

Tang San was completely confused.

At this time, Ning Rongrong also finally noticed the hot-bodied Zhu Zhuqing beside Qin Jian, and her expression couldn't help but change slightly, then she said: "Then who is that girl beside him?"

Tang San shook his head and said: "I haven't seen her make a move."

"You just said you met them at the hotel?"

Ning Rongrong's beautiful eyes slowly narrowed: "Then did they... stay in one room or two rooms?"

As soon as she said this, Tang San and Dai Mubai both looked over, because this was not a question a stranger would ask.

Then Xiao Wu gave a cold snort and said: "Of course it was one room, and it was even a romantic room!"

Qin Jian broke into a sweat on his forehead instantly.

Ning Rongrong's originally gentle eyes immediately looked at Zhu Zhuqing like knives, and Zhu Zhuqing also felt the hostility from across, their gazes meeting.

"Zila!"

Even though it was invisible, everyone seemed to see two bolts of lightning collide.

Seeing this scene, Dai Mubai's heart suddenly stirred: "It seems I am not without a chance."

And so, looking at Zhu Zhuqing, he said to Tang San and the others in a low voice: "I can feel that this girl's aura is very similar to mine, and there is a feeling of mutual reinforcement; it is very likely that she and I can trigger a Martial Soul Fusion Skill."

This was his plan; since Qin Jian and Zhu Zhuqing were also going to join the academy, it was inevitable that they would form a team to fight, and then the Martial Soul Fusion Skill between him and Zhu Zhuqing would naturally be of great use.

And the use of a Martial Soul Fusion Skill often involves very intimate actions; he figured that once it happened enough times, Qin Jian would be unable to tolerate it.

This was Dai Mubai's opportunity.

"Are you two going to test or not?"

At this moment, the Soul Emperor elder finally grew impatient: "Hurry up, if you don't want to test, then move aside."

Qin Jian hurriedly withdrew his gaze and stepped forward, tossing 20 Gold Spirit Coins into the wooden box.

"We'll go together."

Qin Jian and Zhuqing reached out their hands at the same time, and the elder casually felt their hand bones before saying: "The age is appropriate, release your martial souls."

Qin Jian and Zhuqing nodded, then simultaneously circulated the soul power within their bodies under everyone's gaze.

"Hum hum."

Two Yellow Soul Rings lit up on Zhuqing's body, and her Spirit Cat martial soul emerged from behind her in a deep purple hue.

"Hmm, level 27, not bad, you passed," the elder nodded and said.

"Hum hum hum."

And at this moment, Qin Jian's three Yellow, Purple, and Purple Soul Rings once again began their eye-blinding debut.

"It really is a Soul Elder!"

Exclamations rose one after another, and the elder was equally surprised: "To have cultivated to level 34 at such a young age, remarkable!"

He rarely revealed a trace of a smile: "Dai Mubai, take them both inside; it seems we are really going to receive some excellent students this time."

But before his voice had even faded, Qin Jian and Zhuqing, who had activated their martial souls, suddenly had their expressions shift.

Everyone then saw their martial souls moving toward each other...
