The next day, Sea God's Island.
Su Yunlin and the others were all inner courtyard students, so they all lived on Sea God's Island. Su Yunlin woke up very early, and those who woke up with him were Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi.
The three of them looked toward the morning sun in the distance, absorbing the Purple Qi from the East and cultivating the Purple Demon Eyes.
As for Huo Yuhao, he was sleeping like a dead pig. His alcohol tolerance was poor, so he slept very deeply.
After cultivating the Purple Demon Eyes, the three of them went to eat breakfast.
It was not until noon that Huo Yuhao finally woke up. He asked Bei Bei about the details of Sea God's Fate. Su Yunlin and Xu Sanshi naturally knew the details of Sea God's Fate.
Xu Sanshi had already participated in Sea God's Fate before, while Su Yunlin was participating for the first time. He had also watched Sea God's Fate once before and was very familiar with the process.
Sea God's Fate was divided into five segments: Mutual Appreciation, Love at First Sight, Love at Second Sight, Fated for Three Lives, and Eternal Harmony.
Su Yunlin had only one goal, and that was the big white goose, Tang Wutong. He had been looking forward to this for a long time. Sea God's Lake, Sea God's Fate—just thinking about it felt rather romantic.
Very soon, the sky gradually darkened. Because the Sea God's Fate matchmaking event was being held, inner courtyard disciples wearing red school uniforms all gathered toward Sea God's Lake.
At the center of Sea God's Lake, beams of light suddenly shot out from the lake water. As the radiance rippled, the first thing that appeared was eighteen beams of light.
All eighteen beams of light were pale gold. Beneath each beam stood a young woman wearing a white dress.
These eighteen young women wore identical long dresses, and on their heads, they all wore identical white bamboo hats. Three feet of white gauze hung down from the bamboo hats, completely covering their faces, making it impossible to see their appearances.
Immediately afterward, the hosts—Bei Bei, Zhang Lexuan, and Tang Ya—appeared. This time, the three of them were responsible for hosting the Sea God's Fate event.
On another large boat sat many people. They were all elders of Sea God's Pavilion, including Elder Mu, Elder Xuan, Old Master Su, Su Jinming, Xu Yunyu, several deans, and other elders.
Xu Yunyu stood up. "It's starting, it's starting!"
Su Jinming tugged at Xu Yunyu. "Cough, cough. Mind your image, mind your image."
"You move aside. You don't understand romance anyway. Stop tugging at me." Xu Yunyu shook off Su Jinming's hand and looked toward Sea God's Fate with a face full of anticipation.
Su Jinming could only shake his head. His wife had always been this carefree and straightforward, and that was also the personality he liked.
Bei Bei's voice began to ring out. He first announced the opening speech, then had the male students participating in the event prepare themselves.
Su Yunlin stood at the lakeside, arms crossed over his chest.
"Everyone, get ready. Three, two, one, begin!"
After Bei Bei announced the start, more than forty beams of light suddenly appeared. The male students on the shore instantly moved. In this event, students who possessed flying ability had the greatest advantage.
There were a total of five students with flying ability. Su Yunlin was the fastest. In the blink of an eye, he arrived beneath the first row of light pillars, stepping on a water lily.
Aside from Su Yunlin, among the remaining four students who possessed flying ability, there were two Spirit Sages and two Spirit Emperors, all of whom had the best Spirit Ring configurations.
The other students also each displayed their own abilities. Most of them used flying spirit tools, which surprised Huo Yuhao immensely. He had not expected spirit tools to already be so widespread in the inner courtyard.
All the male students arrived on their respective water lilies, and Bei Bei began announcing the start of the first segment.
The first segment was Mutual Appreciation. The goal of this segment was to lift the bamboo hats from the female students' heads. This was the moment for each male student to display his strength. In this segment, without a doubt, whoever could lift the most bamboo hats would be the strongest.
During this segment, the female students were not allowed to help each other, nor were they allowed to attack the male students. They could only defend passively, doing their utmost to prevent the bamboo hats on their heads from falling. If a female student fell into the water during this round of attacks, she would also be eliminated. The male students would determine the order of attack through drawing lots.
Su Yunlin stood at the first position in the first row, so naturally, he was the first to begin.
Su Yunlin looked at the eighteen young women before him, all dressed in white long dresses and wearing bamboo hats. Of course, mixed among them were also a few thirty-something "young women." Su Yunlin quickly sensed where Tang Wutong was.
The two of them possessed a very deep-level Martial Soul Fusion Ability. A Martial Soul Fusion Ability alone might not have allowed him to sense her, but Su Yunlin and Tang Wutong were not merely compatible in Martial Souls. Their souls were compatible as well.
Su Yunlin very easily knew Tang Wutong's position.
Su Yunlin stretched out his hand and swept his palm toward Tang Wutong's direction, sending out a gust of force. Its speed was so fast that it directly sent the bamboo hats of several fairies flying.
When Tang Wutong saw Su Yunlin's attack, her charming face beneath the bamboo hat revealed a crafty smile. She clenched her right hand, and the Clear Sky Hammer appeared. She suddenly swung the Clear Sky Hammer, dispersing the force of the wind Su Yunlin had sent out.
Su Yunlin's tiger-like body trembled. "No way! What does this mean!"
Tang Wutong stuck her tongue out at Su Yunlin.
The corner of Su Yunlin's mouth twitched. He could roughly guess what was going on. Tang Wutong's playful side had flared up again. It seemed this girl needed to be properly disciplined. If he did not discipline her soon, she would climb up to the roof and tear off the tiles.
"Wow~ Su Yunlin's strength is astonishing. With a casual wave, he removed the bamboo hats of several fairies. But it seems that the fairy he fancies blocked his attack! I wonder if Su Yunlin can win that fairy's heart? Everyone, let's wait and see!"
Bei Bei immediately began commentating, leaving Su Yunlin's face aching.
"Bei Bei, that guy really knows how to pick the right moment to make fun of me."
Bei Bei felt secretly delighted. He could finally tease Su Yunlin a little, and Su Yunlin could not rush over to hit him. Wonderful!
Whoosh—
In the next instant, Su Yunlin's entire body appeared among the female students. He directly removed Tang Wutong's bamboo hat. The first segment had never said they could only attack once.
Tang Wutong was also stunned. That speed was too fast, leaving her no time to react. She gave Su Yunlin a coquettishly annoyed expression. Su Yunlin smiled faintly and then flew back to his water lily.
Once Tang Wutong's appearance was revealed, the male students present all cried out in amazement! This was Tang Wutong's first time participating in Sea God's Fate, and only a scattered few had seen her true appearance.
How could the male students of the inner courtyard have ever seen such a beautiful fairy? She had long pink-blue hair, and her eyes were also pink-blue, especially beautiful. Her delicate body was slender yet full, and her absolutely stunning face directly attracted the gazes of all the male students present.
Quite a few male students immediately decided that they had to try to snatch such a beauty! What if they succeeded?
"Aiya, aiya. It seems Student Su Yunlin is still more skilled, removing the bamboo hat of the girl he fancies. Then next, Xu Sanshi, it's your turn! Xu Sanshi, did you hear me?"
At this moment, Xu Sanshi already had the expression of a lovestruck fool. Su Yunlin's move just now had lifted the bamboo hats of several fairies, including Jiang Nannan. Xu Sanshi's eyes had long since locked onto Jiang Nannan.
"Cough, cough. Second Senior Brother, calm down a little. Image, image!" Su Yunlin transmitted his voice.
Only then did Xu Sanshi withdraw his gaze. Then he looked toward Su Yunlin and gave him a thumbs-up. "Brother, nicely done."
Bei Bei slapped his forehead. Xu Sanshi was directly skipped, and the next student's Martial Soul was a swan.
In the end, this student wanted to use his wings to stir up a gale and form a wave on the lake surface, intending to splash the wave onto the fairies and turn them all into wet fairies.
His actions were naturally punished by the several powerful female students. He was directly thrown into the lake.
Su Yunlin looked at this unlucky student. Was this guy trying to imitate him? The gust he had sent out earlier had directly struck the tops of the bamboo hats to lift them away. This guy had impure intentions. He deserved it.
