"You've had a change of heart?" He Caitou's expression was strange. He knew very well what kind of image Xu Sanshi, as a veteran sycophant, had in front of Jiang Nannan back then.
"What can I do? She never accepted me." A bitter smile appeared on Xu Sanshi's face. He then waved his hand with some annoyance. "Don't mention her again. She and I can only be two parallel lines."
"Alright then. It wasn't easy for you to move on." He Caitou nodded. He knew to what extent Xu Sanshi had once been crazy for Jiang Nannan. Now that he could find another choice, it was a good thing for both of them.
"What about you? Are you here to find Xiao Xiao?" Xu Sanshi was a little surprised by He Caitou's return and couldn't help but ask.
"I'd rather not hold Xiao Xiao back." An indescribably complex look appeared on He Caitou's face. Xu Sanshi was relatively familiar with him. After all, three years ago, everyone had fought for the glory of Shrek together.
Deep in He Caitou's eyes, a barely perceptible killing intent was hidden. His purpose for coming here this time was probably not as simple as just participating in a blind date event.
Having not seen him for three years, He Caitou was a head taller, and his figure was much more robust than Xu Sanshi's. It was just that his slightly ordinary face was full of the weariness of having been through the vicissitudes of life.
Xu Sanshi didn't know where he had gone during the three years he had disappeared, and it wasn't convenient to ask now. After all, the person was back, so there would always be a chance to find out.
Bei Bei also spotted He Caitou's figure from afar with his Purple Demon Eyes, but now was not the time for reminiscing. He said in a loud voice, "Sea God's Fate on the Sea God's Lake. Tonight, it is once again time for the annual Sea God's Fate Blind Date Convention. I believe everyone has been looking forward to it for a long time. The blind date convention is divided into five segments in total. I hope everyone is ready. I will emphasize again, once you fall into the water, you will be out, regardless of whether you are male or female."
Xixi, on the side, added, "Tonight, we will also select the most beautiful Sea God's Fairy and the happiest male student. However, the first thing you have to do is to unveil the veils of the fairies opposite you."
He Caitou stepped on the water lily. The load-bearing capacity of this water lily was indeed quite good. As long as he gathered his soul power, with his cultivation, he could naturally stand on it steadily, provided he didn't move around randomly.
"Alright, we will now begin the first segment—Cherishing Each Other. Starting from the left side of the first row, every prodigy can freely display their abilities. However, don't go too overboard. Otherwise, if some fairies can't help but make a move against you, I can only pretend I didn't see it." Xixi continued with a smile.
On the men's side, Xu Sanshi had already begun to rub his hands together. He was occupying the first position. He would naturally be the first to go in this segment of Cherishing Each Other.
"Sanshi, are you ready?" Bei Bei asked Xu Sanshi.
Xu Sanshi made an "okay" gesture. Bei Bei said, "A good night is short. Let's begin then. Little San, go for it, get 'em!"
"Little San" was naturally the nickname for Xu Sanshi, who was ranked by age in the Tang Sect. For Bei Bei to call him that at this time was also to tell Xu Sanshi not to disgrace his Tang Sect.
Xu Sanshi moved. This time, he did not rush over by striking the water surface with his shield as before. His body first leaped high, and then the Xuanming Turtle Shell Shield in his hand flew out, landing gracefully on the surface of the water.
Xu Sanshi fell from the air, landing right on the surface of the shield. He pushed off with his palms, and the shield immediately began to slide rapidly on the water like a small boat, creating two lines of water as it rushed towards the female students.
"Beautiful!"
On the men's side, some had already started to cheer. The way Xu Sanshi was moving forward was undoubtedly quite exquisite. Using the shield as a vehicle, he could not only save soul power but also move more steadily. If he had struck the water surface with his shield as before, although he could still move forward continuously, by the time he reached the fairies, he would probably only have one chance to act. Only a fleeting glimpse.
Xu Sanshi had worked hard to get the first turn in this first segment. He naturally would not let go of this opportunity to show himself off.
"Fairies, I'm coming!" He shouted, and the Xuanming Turtle Shell Shield suddenly accelerated, quickly arriving in front of the female students.
Seeing that he was still about ten meters away, Xu Sanshi gently guided with his palms, steadily controlling the Xuanming Turtle Shell Shield to a stop. He had used the Tang Sect's ultimate skill, Controlling Crane, Capturing Dragon, to perfection.
This guy didn't seem to be in a hurry at all. He stood here and looked carefully from left to right. Not only did he look, but he also muttered cheekily, "Not this one, a bit fat. Not this one either, too skinny. Hey, this one has a great figure! But, a bit bigger than her over there. No, no."
Among the Shrek female students, a somewhat sharp voice suddenly rang out, "Xu Sanshi, if you want to go straight into the water, just say so."
"Uh! My mistake." Xu Sanshi immediately shut his mouth. And in this short period of time, he had already locked onto his target. The Xuanming Turtle Shell Shield moved again, pushing his body towards a fairy in the very center.
The body of that fairy standing on the water lily seemed to move slightly. Xu Sanshi was already very close to her, and ten meters was just an instant away.
Tapping the Xuanming Turtle Shell Shield with the tip of his toe, Xu Sanshi actually headed directly for the water lily pad where the girl was standing.
However, as he passed a certain fairy, no one noticed that her whole body trembled.
The young girl on the centermost leaf was obviously a little nervous. She tapped the center of the water lily, where the load-bearing capacity was strongest, with the tip of her toe. Immediately after, her whole person soared up, and a pair of exquisite and beautiful butterfly wings opened, her long white dress dancing with the wind.
"So beautiful!" In the distance, the male students immediately started whistling.
But Xu Sanshi just stretched out his hand and, using the Tang Sect's ultimate hidden weapon technique, controlled a handful of river water, splitting it into countless fine water droplets that shot towards the conical hat on the girl's head.
On the butterfly wings spread out behind the girl, several points of light immediately condensed to meet those fine water droplets. But Xu Sanshi was long prepared for this. The fourth soul ring on his body instantly lit up. It was the ever-successful Xuanming Transposition.
The young girl clearly did not expect Xu Sanshi to pull such a move on her. She had actually swapped places with the light ball soul skill she had cast. The water droplets were no longer obstructed and directly knocked off her conical hat, revealing the girl's devastatingly beautiful face.
However, although those water droplets had no attack power, the soul skill she herself had released had a certain amount of power!
Xu Sanshi smiled slightly. His fourth soul ring flashed repeatedly, and he instantly swapped places with the young girl, raising his Xuanwu Shield to block that wave of light ball bombardment.
"Wutong, I've said it before. No matter when, I am the strongest shield to protect you." Xu Sanshi stood on the water, holding his Xuanwu Shield, relying on the powerful water control ability of the Xuanwu martial soul, and said with a look of deep affection.
"Of the three thousand weak streams, I only take one scoop to drink. Wutong, I love you." After speaking, his shield had already turned back into a surfboard, instantly breaking through the water surface and carrying his body back towards his original position.
Her pinkish-blue long hair draped over her shoulders. At this moment, her pretty face was flushed with a hint of angry red. Under the illumination of the lights, Tang Wutong was even more beautiful than when everyone had seen her in the cafeteria. Her peerless, delicate face was even more beautiful under the衬托 of the faint golden light emitted from the water lily around her feet. Her slender and delicate body was nearly perfect, and her large eyes were full of嗔意 as she glared fiercely at Xu Sanshi.
Xu Sanshi was too familiar with her aura. The power between them had guided the two of them, and he had quickly found her among the thousand or so people.
This was, after all, the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Convention. When Tang Wutong saw Xu Sanshi scan the crowd and finally come towards her, her mood was somewhat nervous and apprehensive.
Immediately after, Xu Sanshi came riding the waves on his shield, almost predicting all of her movements, which was how he had gained the upper hand. Tang Wutong would never have thought that Xu Sanshi's hard practice of the Tang Sect's hidden weapon techniques before this would be for tonight.
"Good grief, he went straight for the king bomb!"
On the men's side, seeing Xu Sanshi's triumphant start, having removed Tang Wutong's conical hat, a wave of cheers erupted. A student with weaker cultivation was even so stunned that he lost control of his body and almost slipped into the water from his water lily.
In terms of appearance, there were not many girls in the entire blind date event who could compare to Tang Wutong.
Many of the girls who were still confident in their appearance immediately fell flat. With Tang Wutong's face revealed, she had directly attracted the attention of all the boys.
Many of the girls immediately hated these two. If you want to show off your love, can't you do it later?
Xu Sanshi turned back, cupped his fists to the crowd, and said smugly, "Just lucky, just lucky. Fellow senior and junior brothers, we all have to work hard together! There are many of us in this first segment. We must take off all the young ladies' conical hats." As he spoke, he very shamelessly brought the conical hat that Tang Wutong had worn before to his face, took a deep breath, and had a look of intoxication. Fortunately, the distance was far, and the sky was dark. Tang Wutong over there couldn't see his perverted look, otherwise, who knows how angry she would be.
This first segment was originally a time to showcase personal abilities. Although Xu Sanshi had only used one soul skill just now, he had succeeded, and he had done so very steadily. The academy teachers on the distant ferry couldn't help but nod secretly. Xu Sanshi was indeed their Shrek's most outstanding talent now.
Xu Sanshi kept cupping his fists and bowing, clearly extremely proud. And he did have the capital to be proud. One had to know that the fairies were all wearing identical long dresses that covered their entire bodies, and they also wore conical hats on their heads, with veils hanging down more than three feet. In the eyes of the vast majority of people, they all looked the same. For Xu Sanshi to be able to find Tang Wutong among the thousand or so female students on this dark night could not be explained by just the word "familiar."
The fairy that Xu Sanshi had passed just now clenched her small hands tightly. Tears silently streamed down her face, uncontrolled. Her red lips were pressed tightly together, trying her best not to make a sound.
Watching Xu Sanshi's high-profile performance, a faint smile appeared on Xixi's pretty face. She glanced at Bei Bei beside her. At this time, Bei Bei was watching Xu Sanshi with a smile on his face, clearly long accustomed to this guy's style.
"Next." Xixi urged. So many people had come to the blind date event. It wouldn't be easy to finish in one night. The process had to be simplified as much as possible.
