Douluo Continent: Dark Demon God Biao, inheriting the position of an evil god

Everyone's attention was instantly drawn over.

At the entrance, a tall, slender figure walked in with a calm and elegant gait, neither hurried nor slow.

She wore a simple and neat white training outfit that accentuated her beautiful figure, and her dazzling long golden hair was tied into a neat high ponytail, swaying gently as she walked.

She was stunningly beautiful, with skin as white as snow, and features as exquisite as works of art. In particular, her golden eyes were clear, bright, and sparkling, exuding an air of nobility.

It was Princess Xingluo, Xu Jiujiu.

She seemed to have long been accustomed to the gaze of the crowd, her expression calm, with a faint smile on her lips.

"Wow--!"

A low gasp of surprise rose from the ranks.

The boys' eyes were mostly filled with amazement, while the girls were more curious.

"This is His Highness Xu Jiujiu from the Star Luo Empire. He will be joining our Core Class One as an exchange student to study and train with everyone."

Mu Jin introduced herself succinctly: "I hope you can get along well, learn from each other, and make progress together. Xu Jiujiu, please give a brief self-introduction as well."

After a long pause, he stepped forward half a step, facing the gazes of dozens of people below the stage, and spoke with composure and grace:
"Hello everyone, I am Xu Jiujiu, an exchange student from the Star Luo Empire. Please take care of me from now on."

In the group, Dai Qiu'er crossed her arms and looked him up and down for a long time with her delicate eyes.

She tilted her head slightly, her pink lips pursed almost imperceptibly, and muttered in a voice only she could hear:

"Is she Xu Jiujiu, whom Yun Tian received today? She doesn't look that great."

She admitted that Xu Jiujiu was indeed beautiful and had an outstanding temperament, but Dai Qiu'er had absolute confidence in her own appearance.

She smiled slightly, not feeling any sense of crisis.

Seemingly sensing Dai Qiu'er's undisguised scrutinizing gaze, after a long while, his golden eyes shifted slightly, precisely meeting Dai Qiu'er's gaze.

The two of them looked at each other.

Tiny sparks seemed to crackle and pop in the air.

Xu Jiujiu's smile remained unchanged, but his eyes clearly conveyed a hint of provocation.

In less than a day since she arrived at Shrek Academy, she had already thoroughly investigated Dai Yuntian's interpersonal relationships in the outer courtyard.

Don't ask her how she did it, just tell her it's all about money!

Apart from his rightful fiancée, Zhu Lu.

Among those in the outer courtyard who were closest to Dai Yuntian and had the most special relationship, there was undoubtedly Dai Qiu'er, who was equally outstanding in appearance and temperament and had a mysterious identity.

Therefore, from the very beginning, Xu Jiujiu's goal was very clear.

Since he had decided to "make Dai Yuntian look at him with new eyes," he naturally needed to "get to know" the most important person in his life.

On the first meeting, in the other party's territory, appropriately demonstrating one's strength and presence to dampen their arrogance and establish an initial psychological advantage is undoubtedly a good choice.

After all, she was not some weak, vulnerable, hothouse flower that needed to be protected.

She is the eldest princess of Xingluo, a Soul Master with the top-tier martial soul Star Crown and exceptional talent.

As a newcomer, she needed to let these arrogant Shrek geniuses know that she was more than just a "pretty princess".

Their eyes met, and in that brief moment, they exchanged a wealth of information.

Dai Qiu'er understood the provocation. Her purple-gold eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of interest shone through her languid expression.

Interesting. This princess doesn't seem to be here to be a good girl.
Wang Dong'er naturally noticed the silent "confrontation" between the two.

She stood not far from Dai Qiu'er, her pinkish-blue eyes darting between Xu Jiujiu and Dai Qiu'er. As intelligent as she was, she immediately understood the current situation.

This new princess seems to have some ideas about Dai Qiu'er... or rather, about the position next to Dai Yuntian?
The faint sense of vigilance in her heart had quietly intensified.

But Wang Dong'er maintained a perfect smile, and even took a half step forward to nod to Xu Jiujiu in a friendly manner, politely welcoming her.

Although she didn't particularly like Xu Jiujiu, she still had to maintain a polite facade. Instructor Mu Jin observed all of this and chuckled inwardly.

Young people need some competition, as long as it's not excessive.

She clapped her hands, breaking the delicate tension: "Alright, introductions are complete. Xu Jiujiu is new here and doesn't yet understand the class's training methods and intensity. To help her integrate as quickly as possible, and to allow the students to get to know each other, we'll have a simple adaptive sparring exercise next."

Her gaze swept across the entire room, finally settling on Xu Jiujiu: "Xu Jiujiu, you can choose one of the students present as your opponent for your first practice match."

Adaptive sparring is a traditional activity at Shrek Academy when welcoming exchange students or new students.

It allows newcomers to experience Shrek's style while also letting veterans get to know the newcomers' backgrounds.

Upon hearing this, all the students' eyes once again focused on Xu Jiujiu, filled with curiosity and anticipation.

Who will this Star Princess choose as her first opponent?

Is it someone who seems easy to talk to? Or is it to pick the strongest one to establish authority?

He remained expressionless for a long time, as if he had expected this to happen.

Her eyes slowly swept over the students below the stage again, lingering slightly on Wang Dong'er, Dai Qiu'er, and a few other students with strong presence.

Finally, her gaze settled on the girl with the same golden hair as her, who had her arms crossed, looked languid, and whose eyes held a clear sense of scrutiny and provocation.

Her red lips parted slightly, and her voice resounded clearly throughout the training ground:
"I choose her."

Her slender, fair fingers pointed steadily at Dai Qiu'er in the crowd.

"Wow——!"

After a brief silence, a suppressed uproar erupted on the training field.

This princess actually went straight for Dai Qiu'er, the most "unapproachable" monster in the core class besides Dai Yuntian, right off the bat!
Is it a case of a newborn calf not being afraid of a tiger?

Or are you really confident?

"This guy, he probably didn't really come for Yuntian."

A hint of surprise flashed in Wang Dong'er's eyes, which quickly turned into interest in watching a good show.

She quietly stepped back half a step, giving the stage to the two people.

Dai Qiu'er, who was called out, was stunned at first, then her purple-gold eyes suddenly lit up, like flames that had been ignited.

She lowered her arms, stood up straight, and a smile that was undisguised and full of fighting spirit curled up at the corners of her mouth.

"Oh? You choose me?"

Dai Qiu'er's voice was filled with excitement. She squeezed her wrist, making a soft "click" sound: "Interesting, Your Highness. I hope your strength matches your discerning eye."

The smell of gunpowder instantly filled the air.

Mentor Mu Jin raised an eyebrow slightly, but did not stop her.

She also wanted to see just how capable this Princess Xingluo really was.

As for Dai Qiu'er?
Perfect timing! This girl's been bored lately, so finding her a suitable opponent to sharpen her claws wouldn't be bad.

“Since both sides agree, then Dai Qiu’er, step forward.”

Mu Jin gave the order.

Dai Qiu'er strode out of the line and stood several meters away from Xu Jiujiu, facing each other from a distance.

Two girls, both stunningly beautiful, with contrasting personalities, yet equally outstanding.

One had dazzling blonde hair, exuding nobility and composure; the other had mysterious blonde hair, radiating sunshine.

Their gazes met in mid-air, sparking an invisible flame. (End of Chapter)
