Chapter 156: Fool, I'm Not a Dummy

Falling into the water meant that Xu Sanshi was about to leave this blind date assembly.

Even in the instant before he fell into the water, the tears in his eyes did not diminish.

A man does not shed tears easily, unless he has reached the point of heartbreak.

However, he was not wrong about what he had determined from the beginning, but he had never considered one point: love is always a matter for two people; it is never just one person's wishful thinking.

Perhaps the starting point of his persistence was wrong from the beginning; if not for that initial incident, and if not for the words he and Bei Bei used during the time they spent with her, treating her like an object of trade...

If not for the event specifically designed to give her and Xu Sanshi space to be together, perhaps sincere feelings could indeed move a young girl in the flower of her youth who had never encountered love before.

From the time he met Jiang Nannan until now, a full six years had passed.

For six years, Xu Sanshi had been pursuing her tirelessly, constantly confessing his feelings. Yet, all he ever received was rejection, simply because six years ago he had done a wrong thing, a wrong thing that had left a deep shadow in Jiang Nannan's heart.

For six years, he had put in too much, too much effort, but all he received was rejection.

Xu Sanshi had been waiting, waiting for the moment when the clouds would part to reveal the moon. Yet, the answer given to him was always no, always a denial.

Not all efforts are necessarily rewarded; where there is injury, there is a scar. This is the reality and cruelty of life.

Regarding Xu Sanshi's fall into the water, there was not the slightest change on Jiang Nannan's face; all that remained was indifference.

At this scene, Bei Bei also shook his head. When he turned back around, his face had already returned to a smile. It was not that he was unaware of Xu Sanshi's situation; he had also tried to create opportunities for Xu Sanshi, but the final outcome was like this.

Zhang Lexuan smiled and said, "Next, we are going to begin the fourth round. After 'Mutual Appreciation', 'Love at First Sight', and 'Love at Second Sight', it is time for 'Destined for Three Lives'. Therefore, this fourth round of ours is called 'Three Lives Fated'."

"In this round, the female students will take turns coming out to introduce themselves and choose the boy they admire. And go to his side. The male students should stand a bit further apart later; it is not excluded that someone might have great charm and be able to attract more than one female student. At the end of this round, if a male student has not been favored by any female student, then, I am sorry, you will be leaving our blind date assembly this time. The remaining people will continue to the final round."

Without a doubt, in this fourth round, more male students would be eliminated. Even if the female students ended up making one-on-one choices, only eighteen individuals could remain out of the twenty male students. This

The Sea God Fate Blind Date Assembly, at least in the first four rounds, was entirely dominated by the female students having priority, which was also in line with the common sense of ladies first. In fact, apart from free love, boys basically did not have any advantage at the Sea God's Fate.

"Let's begin. One point for the two girls who are still wearing bamboo hats: later, when you introduce yourselves, you may choose to take off your hats and reveal your true faces. If you do not show yourselves or give some hints in this round, then, in the final round, unless the boy confirms he has chosen you, you will not be able to take off your hats until the event ends. Below, please have the number one female student introduce herself and make her choice."

The number one female student was named Hua Yao. What was most incomprehensible in the original work was that she had originally been eliminated by falling into the water and then appeared in this round, but according to what happened before, the one who should have been eliminated was Ye Liu; it was just that the author had eaten his own settings again.

When Gufan hit the jackpot, everyone cheered in unison. In fact, according to the author's settings, Gufan and Hua Yao had long since developed feelings for each other, but neither was good at expressing themselves, and participating in the Sea God's Fate was just a place where they could express their emotions.

For example, He Caitou and Xiao Xiao, Wang Dong'er and Su Yu, and those two who were a brother-complex and a sister-complex...

Zhang Lexuan smiled and said, "Gufan, I'm afraid this 'Lone Sail' of yours is going to turn into a big ship!"

Gufan was clearly a man of few words; he bowed slightly toward Zhang Lexuan, but the excitement in his eyes could not be concealed.

Zhang Lexuan said, "Then, it is time for our next girl to come out."

The girl with the number two sign was none other than Wang Dong'er. Now, reminded by Zhang Lexuan, she was instead no longer as calm as before; what appeared on her face was not only shyness, but also excitement and anticipation.

She was seen moving her figure, and in the blink of an eye, she had flown out. A layer of faint golden light wrapped around her, and a surprising scene appeared the moment she moved to leave the water lily.

Opposite her, Su Yu made an inviting gesture toward her. Several exquisite Soul Guidance Devices flew out from Su Yu's body, then reassembled under Wang Dong'er's feet, turning into a disc-shaped Flying Soul Guidance Device, dragging Wang Dong slowly to Su Yu's side.

"The joke from before, it seems, has unfortunately come true. Dong'er, from now on, don't even think about escaping from the palm of my hand."

Su Yu blew a breath, and the water area where Wang Dong stood instantly froze into solid ice. The two interlocked their fingers, quietly looking at everything before them.

"It's so good to have a fool like you. Although you're a bit clumsy and a bit stupid, in the end, you didn't let me down. Su Yu, will you really accept me?" Leaning on Su Yu's chest, Wang Dong'er asked nervously.

Su Yu pinched her nose and said dotingly, "Fool, if I really didn't accept you, how would I have gone to lift your bamboo hat and chosen you? Let the past be the past; in the future, you are my Dong'er."

As a mage, Su Yu was still extremely keen in terms of senses. Although he might not have Spirit Power as powerful as Huo Yu Hao's, in the application of Spirit Power, Huo Yu Hao was definitely not a hundred and eight thousand miles ahead of him.

"It seems this female student and Su Yu have a great rapport. Did you two agree on this long ago? Let's reveal the answer in the final round. Please, next."

The girls who came out next all chose the boys they admired. When it was Xiao Xiao's turn, Su Yu and Wang Dong'er were both holding back their laughter. The moment their fingers interlocked, their hearts had long since communicated; whatever the other was thinking, both sides knew.

"Do you think we should help Xiao Xiao? After all, she and Brother He are really a perfect match," Wang Dong'er asked in her heart.

"That's natural. Whatever Dong'er says goes. The rules didn't say we couldn't help others, right?"

Su Yu smiled indifferently, then he and Wang Dong'er looked at Xiao Xiao in unison. Today's matter, even if it couldn't be done, it had to be done; Dong'er had spoken!

Finally, it was Xiao Xiao's turn.

Xiao Xiao looked up at the opposite side, the blush on her face still not having faded even now, and there was still a hint of hesitation in her eyes.

In fact, for Xiao Xiao, that was not hesitation, but confusion and panic in the face of the unknown.

Not far away, Wu Ming perhaps also saw Xiao Xiao's concerns and smiled, "Little Sister Xiao Xiao, listen to your sister: never miss the best opportunity because of a moment of shyness. Accepting a man when he loves you the most is the only way to completely capture his heart. He will love you, and he will even cherish you for a lifetime because he is grateful that you accepted him."

Han Ruoruo also laughed, "Ming'er, it seems like you know a lot about it. How come you haven't captured one yet?"

The reason Wu Ming couldn't find one was largely because those with higher cultivation than her had their eyes set on the Senior Sister, and those with lower cultivation than her didn't dare to pursue her. Moreover, Wu Ming completely looked down on those whose strength was inferior to hers.

This was also the biggest pain point that caused this Golden Crow Saintess to live as a Golden Crow "leftover" woman. However, it was true that in every aspect, the Senior Sister was worthy of the identity of Senior Sister. Sometimes, she was like the neighbor's big sister who met all the criteria for a spouse in your heart; it was hard not to be moved...

But the Senior Sister also had someone in her heart to this day. Although there were certain conditions, who could know that in Shrek Academy, which boasted of being a place shrouded in light, there would be such conditions? Although Zhang Lexuan did not necessarily have to follow them, some people, once they made a promise, it was until death do they part...

Listening to Han Ruoruo's words, Wu Ming also said with some annoyance, "It's not that there isn't a suitable one, is it?"

Xiao Xiao nodded to them, and her shy eyes finally revealed a look of determination, "Thank you, two sisters."

As she spoke, she had already leaped out. When she took the first step, she was just about to use the Three Lives Soul Suppressing Cauldron to borrow force, but she found that, somehow, an extra flying disc had appeared under her feet.

She clearly remembered that only Su Yu had this thing; how could it appear under her feet?

Just as she looked at Su Yu in confusion, she saw Wang Dong'er waving at her happily, "Xiao Xiao, go for it!"

Listening to Wang Dong'er's words, Xiao Xiao also nodded, stood on the Flying Soul Guidance Device, and slowly arrived beside He Caitou.

"Fool, are you not welcoming me?" Xiao Xiao pouted and said.

He Caitou hurriedly made space, but the space on a water lily was limited. Just as He Caitou was about to use a Soul Guidance Device, the water surface where Xiao Xiao and He Caitou were located also froze into solid ice at this moment, and both of them stood steadily on the ice surface.

He Caitou looked at Su Yu gratefully, and Su Yu smiled and nodded.

"Brother He, go for it!"

He Caitou also nodded and said toward her, "Although I am not very smart, nor am I as eloquent as Su Yu, but Xiao Xiao, I will use all the time in my remaining life to love you..."

"Hmm..." Xiao Xiao's face was already red enough to drip blood at this moment. Even on the Sea God Lake where the light was not good, He Caitou could see it clearly.

"Xiao Xiao, I like you..."

…………

The two of them, one only knew how to use the simplest words to express his most sincere love, and the other used the simplest words to answer the most important question in her life.

Perhaps life does not require great ups and downs; amidst the plain and simple, there still exists a love as scorching as a raging fire.

Watching this scene, Zhang Lexuan seemed to be touched by something; she nudged Bei Bei beside her and said, "You take over now."

"Alright." Bei Bei was genuinely happy from the bottom of his heart as Master that He Caitou and Xiao Xiao had finally become a couple. Although that guy Xu Sanshi was not so lucky, some things, after all, could not be forced.

"Three lives on the Three Lives Cauldron, a fate of three lives; Cai Tou, you must seize this!" Bei Bei's voice rang out with a hint of teasing.

He Caitou said loudly, "Master, I will definitely seize it. No one else will choose me. The senior and junior sisters on the opposite side, don't choose me anymore! I have someone."

"Brother He, you can't say it like that; whether they choose you on the other side is a question in itself."

At this moment, Su Yu also couldn't help but laugh as he spoke; the current He Caitou could truly be described as "riding the spring breeze, his horse galloping fast, seeing all the flowers of Chang'an in a single day."

"Hahahaha..." He Caitou's honest and straightforward confession immediately drew a burst of laughter from the crowd, and the atmosphere changed from its original romantic tension to something much more relaxed.

"Big guy, this time it can be considered you marrying up; remember to treat her well. If you bully her, I won't let you off." Ma Xiaotao also spoke up, among the students of the Inner Court

…………

The story of the Sea God's Fate continued, but in the next instant, the style of this story gradually began to go off track.

The next to appear was the second girl who had not taken off her bamboo hat. She slowly removed it, and the face beneath the hat was actually Ning Tian. Logically, as a Support System tool-type Soul Master, it was unlikely that no one would have been able to remove her hat until the end.

A beautiful, delicate face was revealed beneath the hat. Ning Tian's appearance was one of gentle beauty. After not seeing her for several years, her figure and appearance had changed significantly with her growth. Compared to before, she had a bit more of a calm temperament, and within that calmness was a touch of elegance, which easily made people feel favorably toward her.

It must be said that in terms of temperament, she did have a bit of the flavor of the senior sister. However, compared to the senior sister, Ning Tian was still quite far behind.

"My name is Ning Tian. Because I am a Support System Soul Master, I can only rely on the power of a Soul Guidance Device to stay on this water surface. Level 54, Support System tool-type Soul King. My martial soul is the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda."

Although she meant that she did not have the ability to hover on the water surface, no one felt that her strength was weak. How could there be any weaklings among those who could be admitted to the Inner Court?

What's more, she looked so young. And when she finally stated her martial soul, many male students revealed looks of sudden realization.

The Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, originally named the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, was upgraded to the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Pagoda because Ning Rongrong consumed a celestial herb. Although Ning Rongrong's own aptitude was insufficient, she benefited from Oscar's light and inherited the God Position of the Nine Colored Goddess, the wife of the Food God.

"As a Support System Soul Master, I need a pair of strong arms to protect me by my side. Therefore, I will choose a boy who can protect me as my companion. I also believe that I can assist him in reaching the pinnacle of the continent. Because, what I have behind me is the entire Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect!"
