"Alright! With this, the four segments of our Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event have been successfully completed. Now, we are about to begin the final segment, and it's also the most important one!" Dai Yueheng said with a beaming smile.
"Our final segment is called: A Hundred Years of Harmony!" Zhang Weiwei continued, "In this segment, the privilege of females choosing first temporarily ends, and the ultimate right to choose is given to all the males!
The males will make their final decision to choose the female they are fond of. If this female also chose you in the previous segment and there are no other competitors, then, congratulations to you. However, if there are competitors, then we will enter the'snatching a bride' segment.
Among all five segments, the 'A Hundred Years of Harmony' segment has the most variables and is an important moment to showcase everyone's strength and charm, so please be prepared."
Dai Yueheng then introduced, "The rules for the'snatching a bride' segment are as follows: If Male A chooses a female who did not choose him in the previous segment (Female A), then Female A has the right to challenge him.
If the female wins, the male will be directly eliminated. If the male wins, then Male A can choose the female he is fond of, Female B. If Female B had previously chosen another male, Male B, then Male A needs to first seek Male B's opinion. If Male B also chose Female B, then Male A and Male B will need to compete.
The winner will get the chance to re-express his feelings to Female B.
Weiwei just said that this segment is a test of strength and charm, so males, you need to step up! For your love, you must not back down!"
Zhang Weiwei concluded, "Additionally, if multiple females choose the same male, and that male chooses one of them, then the other females can also issue a challenge.
I must also emphasize here that during a challenge, we will use various methods to try and keep the strength of both parties as balanced as possible.
Alright, the rules are a bit complicated, but once the segment begins, I believe everyone will understand."
"Without further ado, let's begin!" Dai Yueheng said with a smile, "Ziyang, you have the most females in front of you, so you go first!"
Dai Yueheng's words surprised Zhu Ziyang a little, but he didn't show it. He just nodded, then his gaze fell on the four females in front of him. Ma Xiaotao looked threatening, shaking her small fist at him. Jiang Nannan smiled like a spring flower, calm and composed. Qian Lingyi's beautiful eyes were filled with affection, her fists clenched. As for Fifth Huan'er, she still looked bewildered.
The four females' different expressions represented their different states of mind at this moment, and Zhu Ziyang found it a bit difficult. To be honest, choosing any one of them would hurt the others, so he had already made a decision in his heart.
At this moment, everyone's eyes were on Zhu Ziyang. Whether it was the elders and teachers or the male and female disciples present, everyone was paying attention to this situation, which could definitely be considered a'shuraba.' They all really wanted to know how Zhu Ziyang would resolve such a'shuraba.'
"Only children make choices, I want them all!" Zhu Ziyang's opening statement was a critical hit. With a faint smile on his face, he said, "I'm a very fickle person. Although doing this isn't very fair to you all, Sister Xiaotao, Nannan, Yi Yi, Huan Er, I don't want to give up any one of you four! My arms are wide enough to embrace all four of you. Are you willing to accept me and also accept the others?"
As Zhu Ziyang spoke, he opened his arms.
"Oh my..." Everyone was astonished, watching this scene intently. This was a rare sight, a wonder that hadn't been seen in a hundred years, and it absolutely couldn't be missed! Shrek Academy's number one genius was personally showing them how to embrace multiple partners and enjoy the blessings of having many wives!
Ma Xiaotao and the three other females were also stunned by Zhu Ziyang's actions, but they weren't surprised, as they had already anticipated this. Given Zhu Ziyang's temperament, it was impossible for him to give up any of them, and they hadn't actually expected to have Zhu Ziyang all to themselves. Their participation in the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event was, in fact, just to get a clear attitude from Zhu Ziyang.
Evidently, they had achieved their goal, so Jiang Nannan, Ma Xiaotao, and Qian Lingyi exchanged smiles, but immediately straightened their faces and looked at Zhu Ziyang.
Ma Xiaotao sneered, pouting, "Even if we're sharing a husband, there should still be a distinction of seniority, Ziyang, aren't you going to say something?"
Jiang Nannan also snorted coldly, "Exactly, I think so too. But rather than having brother say it, why don't we decide the seniority ourselves, based on strength? That way, everyone will be convinced!"
"Good! I was thinking the same thing!" Ma Xiaotao agreed.
"Sister Weiwei, we might be breaking the rules a bit, I hope you don't mind." Jiang Nannan said to Zhang Weiwei with a smile.
"It's fine." Zhang Weiwei's expression was peculiar, and she said with a smile, "This can also be considered a unique challenge, not breaking the rules. We agree."
Everyone else was dumbfounded at this moment, not expecting such an outcome. All the males looked at Zhu Ziyang with envy and jealousy. Was this the advantage of a peerless genius? Not only could he embrace multiple partners and enjoy the blessings of having many wives, but he could also make females fight over seniority. Wasn't this a bit too awesome?
"Nannan, Sister Xiaotao, there's no need for this!" Others thought Zhu Ziyang was very happy, and Zhu Ziyang really wanted to say, yes, he was indeed very happy, and his happiness was beyond their imagination, but these were all matters for later. At this moment, Zhu Ziyang smiled bitterly and said.
"Ziyang, don't interfere in the competition between us girls." Ma Xiaotao said.
"That's right, brother, we know what we're doing!" Jiang Nannan also said.
At this moment, the two females had already come to the center of the lake, facing each other. Ma Xiaotao suggested, "Just the two of us might be a bit dull. How about a two-on-two?"
"Hmm!" Jiang Nannan thought for a few seconds and said, "That's fine, then let's call Yi Yi and Huan Er as well."
Thus, Jiang Nannan and Qian Lingyi teamed up, and Ma Xiaotao and Fifth Huan'er teamed up. A battle for status, attracting everyone's attention, was about to begin.
"Huan Er, are you ready?" Ma Xiaotao looked at Fifth Huan'er, who was still a bit confused beside her, and reminded her.
"Mhm mhm! Alright, Sister Xiaotao." Fifth Huan'er immediately nodded in agreement upon hearing this.
On the lake surface, four stunning young females stood opposite each other, simultaneously releasing their Spirit and spirit rings.
The two females, both with red hair and looking like sisters, also had quite similar Spirits. Ma Xiaotao grew a pair of fiery red phoenix wings on her back, and her hair also transformed into burning flames. Eight astonishing spirit rings—two purple, four black, and two red—appeared behind her, making her aura as dazzling as a brilliant sun in the dark night. Fifth Huan'er's arms revealed dragon scales, her hands turned into dragon claws, her body suddenly grew taller, her long hair turned into flames, and behind her appeared a majestic divine beast, like a dragon and a lion. Seven spirit rings—two purple, four black, and one red—hovered above her head.
On the other side, Jiang Nannan and Qian Lingyi's transformations were much smaller. Jiang Nannan's figure became slender, a pair of silvery-white diamond-shaped long ears grew on her head, and a similar silvery-white diamond-shaped tail grew behind her. Silvery-white moonlight shimmered around her delicate body, making the young female appear like a fairy who had stepped out of the Moon Palace. Seven spirit rings—six black and one red—appeared behind her. Qian Lingyi, on the other hand, directly grew three pairs of six pure white angel wings, and seven spirit rings—two yellow, two purple, two black, and one red—also hovered behind her. In comparison, Qian Lingyi's spirit rings were the most normal among the four, but even so, they were enough to make most people recoil in awe.
At this moment, all the Inner Courtyard Disciples were already dumbfounded and speechless. At least for now, they no longer had the mood to just watch the drama unfold. Putting aside the strength of Jiang Nannan, Ma Xiaotao, and the other two females for a moment, just their spirit ring configurations were enough to make them feel utterly ashamed.
The four females fighting over a husband was because they were outstanding enough. Why were they here watching the drama? Was it because they were stupid? Many people were already feeling a bit self-conscious. It was conceivable that after this conference, the Inner Courtyard would see a surge of diligent cultivation.
"Alas! It's truly impossible not to admit old age!" On the ferry, the elders had a surprisingly consistent thought, "How are the children nowadays all so heaven-defying? Are they not letting us old folks live anymore?"
Jiang Nannan, Ma Xiaotao, and the two other females did not hear the elders' lamentations. At this moment, they were accumulating their auras, staring at each other, waiting for the opportune moment to strike.
The battle was on the verge of breaking out.
