Bei Bei smiled as he said, “Alright, it’s over. Sixteen lights remain. Good start, Yuhao!”
Huo Yuhao only noticed themp that had been extinguished. He suddenly realized that the other sixteen girls, including Han Ruoruo and Wu Ming, had actually kept theirmps on for him, which was something he had never expected would happen.
It was clear that during the Love at First Sight segment, both the Snow Lady and his own exemry performance had given the girls a good impression, and only Wu Feng had extinguished hermp vengefully.
“Next, we have He Caitou. Get ready, Sea God’s Fairies.” Bei Bei continued with the segment, seeing that Huo Yuhao had passed.
Huo Yuhao could feel his second senior brother immediately getting nervous not far from him. He Caitou’s eyes were wide open, he nced towards Xiao Xiao from time to time, and hisrge fists were clenched tight. Beads of sweat even trickled down from his temples.
This was only the second segment, but this segment was enough to prove whether Xiao Xiao had a good feeling about him.
“Begin.”
Along with Bei Bei’s exmation, Huo Yuhao felt as if his eyes had gone dark as manymps were immediately extinguished.
He Caitou’s situation waspletely the opposite from Huo Yuhao. The aiming he did with the ss 7 stationary soul cannon took many points from him, while his tall and robust frame along with his dark skin didn’t really fit the girls’ idea of beauty.
“Don’t extinguish everything, please!” He Caitou howled softly under his breath.
Fortunately, twomps remained after most of themps were extinguished.
Onemp belonged to the enchanting Jiang Nannan, who shed a faint smile in He Caitou’s direction with a tinge of encouragement in her eyes. However, whether He Caitou could see it from so far away was another story altogether.
He Caitou felt his entire body turn soft and weak, and his shirt waspletely drenched with sweat. This moment was like a desperate life or death fight to him.
The othermp that remained besides Jiang Nannan’smp belonged to Xiao Xiao. Xiao Xiao’s head was lowered at this moment, and she didn’t look up at He Caitou, but even at this distance, Huo Yuhao could see that there were two dashes of red across her pretty face.
“Nannan has such a strong sense of loyalty!” He Caitou couldn’t but exim in admiration.
Huo Yuhao chortled and said, “Why didn’t you praise Xiao Xiao, second senior brother?”
He Caitou wiped the sweat from his forehead and said, “I’m nervous, Yuhao. What should I do?”
Huo Yuhao forced augh and said, “I’m nervous too… I would rather fight an epic battle instead. Truth be told, this event is really making our hearts beat faster. I’m a little better, as I don’t really have a target, and you’re feeling more anxious and nervous because you do. Rx, second senior brother, I can tell that Xiao Xiao’s face is blushing, and that means she’s probably embarrassed. That’s still a good thing in the end, and at least she has kept hermp on for you. That means you still stand a chance.”
“Yes.” He Caitou nodded his head vigorously. It was clear that Xiao Xiao keeping hermp on for him had greatly boosted his self-confidence.
The event continued, and the girls were exceptionally cruel and savage. Huo Yuhao and the Snow Lady managed to obtain sixteenmps, but the people who came after him didn’t even get a third of themps, even though their situations weren’t as bad as He Caitou’s. Very quickly, it was Xu Sanshi’s turn.
Xu Sanshi was thest in the first row, and the two rows behind him were almost entirelyprised of guys that hadn’t achieved anything at all in the first round.
He Caitou was nervous on his first appearance at the Sea God’s Fate, but Xu Sanshi was equally as nervous. He stared passionately in Jiang Nannan’s direction, and it didn’t matter to him if all other sixteenmps were extinguished as long as Jiang Nannan kept hermp on for him.
“Xu Sanshi, Love at First Sight. Begin.”
“Ding, ding, ding…” Perhaps the girls knew that this guy’s only target was Jiang Nannan, or perhaps it was because he had yed dirty in the first segment, but the speed at which themps were extinguished was even faster than He Caitou.
Themps quickly disappeared until two remained – one was Xiao Xiao, and the other was Jiang Nannan.
Just when Xu Sanshi heaved a sigh of relief and a smile appeared on his face, Jiang Nannan decisively pressed the button in her hands with a swoosh, and the pale goldenmp underneath her was immediately extinguished. The onlymp that remained belonged to Xiao Xiao.
The smile on Xu Sanshi’s face froze, and his face turned ghastly pale. He even shuddered a little.
“You’re so cruel, Nannan!” Xu Sanshi shouted agonizingly, but he stabilized himself in the end.
On the other side, He Caitou asked Huo Yuhao nervously, “Yuhao, Yuhao! Why did Xiao Xiao leave hermp on for third senior brother? What’s this about?”
Huo Yuhao was rendered speechless momentarily, then said, “Second senior brother, you’re confused because you’re too concerned and you think too much. Why do you think fourth senior sister left hermp on for you before this? Naturally, it’s because we are one family, and we should support each other. It’s the same for Xiao Xiao. Do you think she can bear to watch everyone extinguish theirmps for second senior brother?”
He Caitou was relieved, but he still muttered under his breath, “Sanshi is a little more handsome than I am, this…”
Huo Yuhao turned back around and decided not to bother with this guy who spouted nonsense anymore.
Xu Sanshi barely passed this round, but the guys at the back weren’t nearly as lucky. There were too many guys and too few girls, after all – there were more than twice as many guys, and this situation meant that there were bound to be many guys who would be made to forfeit at this stage.
Themps continued to be extinguished, and when Love at First Sight finally came to an end, there were only twenty-four male students who remained. The second round alone wiped out a third of the male students.
What made Huo Yuhao a little surprised was that manymps were extinguished for Dai Huabin, but Wu Feng ultimately kept hermp on for him so that he could remain for the next round. When he saw this, Huo Yuhao couldn’t help but wonder if they were in cahoots from the beginning.
Xie Huanyue’s situation was a lot worse. When he left the scene, he was still shouting, “Fatties have no rights! Fatties have no rights after all!” Not a singlemp was kept on for him.
The second round hade to an end. The twenty-four male students were rearranged once more, this time into a single row, as there were not that many left, and they faced the seventeen girls in the distance directly.
Zhang Lexuan was the one who spoke this time.
“I’m sure everyone has obtained a little understanding of each other after the past two rounds. We shall now proceed into the third segment – Love at Second Sight. This time, the girls have to pay attention – you won’t be able to choose as casually as you did in the second round. Once you make your choice, you will have to be responsible for it. Every guy will have one minute to introduce themselves, and you guys wille to me once you’ve finished your introduction to tell me the number of the Sea God’s Fairy that you like. Once all the introductions areplete, the girls will go through another selection round, but this selection will represent your final choice. Every girl can only choose once, and you can’t regret your choice. Once this selection is over, we will begin the fourth segment.”
“All guys, pay attention. You’re allowed to disy the ability that you think is the most powerful while you’re introducing yourself, and you can also introduce your own cultivation levels and whatnot, as long as you feel that your introduction will be enough to attract the girl you like. I will switch up the order this time, and it will be decided by drawing lots so that we can be fair.”
Bei Bei stepped onto a water lily leaf and gradually floated towards the male students. He was holding some numbered sticks in his hands, and he carried out the lot drawing from left to right.
The girls on the other side weren’t idling around either. Each of them now had a number on their chest, while they also switched positions.
The girl that Huo Yuhao was watching who still had the bamboo hat on her head had the number “two”.
The lot drawing of quickly ended. Huo Yuhao’s luck was average; he was number eleven, and his position was towards the middle.
The first few and thest few in the third segment were at a disadvantage. The first few to go out wouldn’t have experience, while it was easy for the girls to be fatigued and tired towards the end.
Chu Qingtian, the six-ringed agility-type Soul Emperor that had been standing beside Huo Yuhao during the first round, was the first to go.
Zhang Lexuan announced, “Alright, the third segment, Love at Second Sight, shall begin. Do put on a good show, boys. This is your best chance to attract the Sea God’s Fairies’ attention – don’t let this opportunity slip from your grasp.”
“The student with the first numbered stick, step out. Remember, your performance will take ce along theke’s surface between the guys and the girls. The rules are the same, and you will be considered forfeit if you drop into the water.”
“Thank you, eldest senior sister.” Chu Qingtian acknowledged, and he wasted no time at all as he soared into the sky. Lightning circled around his body, and he arrived on the water’s surface in a sh.
“Greetings, Sea God’s Fairies. My name is Chu Qingtian.” He announced his name when he was still in the air. Two yellow, two purple, and two ck soul rings sparkled at the same time.
He rotated once in the sky, and his third soul ring lit up. Countless streaks of lightning flickered, and his body immediately disappeared while only sounds remained in midair.
“I’m twenty-seven years old, and my martial soul is the Berserk Lightning Panther. I’m an agility-type Soul Emperor, and my soul power stands at Rank 67. I am confident to say that I’m one of the fastest amongst the inner courtyard’s students. Even though I’m not exceptionally outstanding, I have a sincere heart. I have already made my decision before my participation in the Sea God’s Fate today, and if any Sea God’s Fairy is willing to take me in, I willy down my heart and follow you for eternity.”
The lightning bolts crackling through the sky suddenly congregated as he spoke, and came together to form an enormous heart-shaped lightning bolt.
His body flickered, and he leapt out from the heart-shaped lightning bolt. He blew softly, and the heart-shaped lightning bolt flew towards the girls in the distance before it eventually dissipated in the air. He twisted in the sky and came before Zhang Lexuan with another sh of lightning, swiftly writing down the number of the girl that he liked on a piece of paper in her hands. Afterwards, he jumped back into the air and returned to his water lily leaf.
Chu Qingtian had disyed his speed and control throughout the entire process. His movements were like the rolling clouds and flowing water, and there weren’t any kinks, drags or drops at all. Exactly one minute had passed when he returned to his water lily leaf.
