Douluo Continent: Steadily Growing Stronger in Shrek Academy

Chapter 104 The Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event (Part 1)

"Mm." Lin Chen nodded in response.

At this moment, Zhang Lexuan changed into a white dress, no longer her usual casual or work attire, and looked like a fairy descended from heaven.

This left Lin Chen speechless.

"What are you looking at?" Zhang Lexuan blushed and scolded Lin Chen for staring at her with eyes that seemed to be welded to her body.

"Oh, it's nothing. I've just never seen Sister Lexuan wear a dress before. I didn't expect her to look so beautiful, like a fairy."

"Oh? So you mean I'm usually ugly?" Zhang Lexuan asked with a smile.

This wasn't the first time Lin Chen had experienced this situation, so he quickly replied, "No, no, no, it's usually very beautiful, but today it's super, super beautiful."

Hearing Lin Chen say that, Zhang Lexuan smiled happily.

"You look very handsome today. I don't think I've ever seen you wear this outfit before," Zhang Lexuan praised Lin Chen.

Lin Chen was wearing a light blue robe, but it wasn't the kind of long-sleeved, long-legged robe that cultivators wore. Instead, it was of varying lengths and widths, perfectly matching Lin Chen's otherworldly temperament.

At the level of female students in Shrek Academy's inner court, judging men is not just about their looks; their temperament is also a very important factor.

Oh, except for Xiao Xiao.

"Really? That's great. My mother knitted these for me. It seems she's quite skilled."

Lin Chen's mother was also a very loving mother. After arriving in the small mountain village, she wove many clothes for Lin Chen in the two years that were made according to the size of Lin Chen when he grew up. Lin Chen felt that this robe was suitable for today's event, so he wore it.

"Your mother has great taste. I'm sure she thinks you look very handsome right now."

"Let's go, as the host, we need to get to the scene as soon as possible."

"Um."

The two then flew together toward the Sea God Lake.

After the two made some preparations, the male and female protagonists who were attending the grand event all arrived one by one.

Suddenly, beams of light shot out from the lake, and the first thing to appear was eighteen beams of light.

All eighteen beams of light were pale gold, and on the surface of the lake from which each beam emerged stood a girl in a long white dress. The eighteen girls wore identical dresses and the same conical hats, with three-foot-long white veils hanging down, completely obscuring their faces.

Bathed in that pale golden light, they looked like fairies on a lake, their ethereal beauty dazzlingly beautiful.

The eighteen girls stood in a row, facing the shore. They stood there quietly, while some of the male students on the shore were already getting impatient.

Lin Chen and Zhang Lexuan also began their entrance ceremony.

Two white beams of light lit up, and Lin Chen and Zhang Lexuan's figures appeared.

Lin Chen announced loudly, "Sea God's Fate at Sea God Lake, a thousand-year Shrek Academy, a moment of love sealed. Welcome everyone to the shores of Sea God Lake on this beautiful evening. The annual Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event is about to begin. As the host of this grand event, on behalf of myself and my senior sister, I wish all the inner court students who have come to participate in the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event today to find their true love. At the same time, I also welcome the elders and teachers of the Sea God Pavilion who are here to witness the event."

Although I find Tang Shenwang quite annoying, there's really no need to hate him because of him. Shrek Academy isn't just his Shrek Academy.

Xuanzi smiled slightly, nodded to Lin Chen, and raised his hand to indicate that he could continue.

The simple opening remarks were met with enthusiastic applause, and the male trainees on the shore couldn't wait to cheer. Especially those who already had someone in mind were already quite impatient.

"Now, all male participants in today's Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event, please prepare yourselves. Thirty-nine pillars of light will appear in the lake shortly. The participants closest to us, the Sea God's Fairies, will proceed to the first round. Those further back may not be able to secure a suitable ranking in the first round. So, everyone, please pay attention. No matter how you land, as long as you land on the water lily leaf where the pillar of light is located, you will have secured a spot. But please, do not fall into the water, or you will be disqualified from continuing to participate in this year's Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event." Zhang Lexuan announced the rules for the first round.

Perhaps due to Lin Chen's intervention, He Caitou did not attend the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event. No matter how the Tang Sect members tried to persuade him, he refused to come and stayed in the laboratory researching his soul tool.

"Everyone, get ready. Three, two, one." After Zhang Lexuan announced the rules, Lin Chen began the countdown.

"start!"

Thirty-nine beams of light suddenly shot out from beneath the lake surface. These thirty-nine beams were arranged in three neat rows, each row about five meters apart, evenly distributed on the lake surface about one hundred meters away from the female trainees. That area was about two hundred meters from the shore.

As soon as Lin Chen shouted "Start!", everyone on the shore immediately sprang into action.

Just like in the original story, Xu Sanshi used the Xuanming Replacement to grab the best position, so he was naturally the first to appear.

At this moment, Bei Bei, whose position had been taken by Lin Chen, was standing on the shore, looking at Xu Sanshi with a smile.

He already had someone he loved, and since Xiaoya wasn't there, he naturally wouldn't attend the conference.

Looking at the handsome man and beautiful woman standing side by side, Beibei couldn't help but feel puzzled.

"Sister, do you have someone you like?"

If that's really the case, then Beibei will be genuinely happy for Zhang Lexuan.

After all, it was he and Xuanzu who had wronged her.

……

"Nannan, I'm here!" Xu Sanshi shouted, and the Xuanming Tortoise Shell Shield suddenly accelerated, quickly arriving in front of the female students.

"No, this one isn't right, she's a bit chubby. No, this one isn't right either, she's lost weight. Wow, this one has a great figure! But it's a bit bigger than Nan Nan's. No, no."

With Huo Yuhao's assist (cheating) soul skill, Xu Sanshi quickly found Jiang Nannan.

In the end, it was effortless to lift Jiang Nannan's straw hat.

Faced with the blessings from his seniors, Xu Sanshi said smugly, "Luckily, lucky indeed. Fellow seniors and juniors, let's all work hard together! We already have a lot of people in this first round, so we must make sure to take all the girls' hats off."

"Ye Liu, it's your turn," Zhang Lexuan said.

Ye Liu was a young man in his late twenties. When he heard Zhang Lexuan call his name, he immediately nodded to his senior sister and then stood up.

A pair of beautiful, pure white wings unfolded behind him. His figure was already very well-proportioned, and with the flapping of his wings, he gracefully flew towards the seventeen female students opposite him.

"Is this kid planning to get everyone soaked?"
