The Peerless Tang Sect: Possessing Huo Yuhao at the Start

Chapter 61 The Fate of the Sea God

The next day.

On Poseidon Island, groups of two or three students from the inner academy, dressed in red school uniforms, gathered toward the venue for the Poseidon's Fate Blind Date Event.

Huo Zhanji is now an inner court student. The male students who have gathered here are all on the shore, while the opposite side of the lake is shrouded in mist. In fact, Huo Zhanji could see it clearly if he wanted to, but that would be meaningless.

Just as everyone had finished gathering, a large ship slowly sailed in from a distance. On board sat the teachers of the inner academy, as well as Yan Shaozhe, Xian Lin'er, Qian Duoduo, Cai Mei'er, and a group of others. It could be said that almost all the high-ranking members of the academy were here.

Amidst everyone's expectant gazes, the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event officially began. Life at the academy was mostly dull and boring, so this rare opportunity to win the heart of a beauty was an irresistible temptation for them.

The large ship did not sail towards them, but stopped in the center of the Sea God Lake. At this moment, beams of light suddenly shot out from the lake water. Under the shimmering light, eighteen figures appeared first. Since Ma Xiaotao had not been kidnapped, she naturally participated in this event as well.

These eighteen beams of light were all pale gold. In each beam, a girl in a white dress stood quietly. When two beams of light converged, two figures appeared. On the left was Bei Bei, who was wearing a white dress, and on the right was Senior Sister Zhang Lexuan, who was wearing a pale yellow dress.

More than two years have passed, and the eldest sister is still as gentle and quiet as ever, after everything is ready.

Beibei's voice drifted from afar, "Sea God's Fate at Sea God Lake, Shrek Academy for millennia, love sealed in a single day. Welcome everyone to the shores of Sea God Lake on this beautiful night. 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 own love and happiness. At the same time, I would also like to welcome all the elders and teachers of the Sea God Pavilion who are here to witness the ceremony today."

"Here, on behalf of the students, I would also like to express my sincere gratitude to all the teachers. Without your patient guidance and help, we would not have achieved what we have today." After saying this, he placed his hand on his chest and gestured slightly towards the ferry boat.

Elder Xuan, the master of the Sea God Pavilion, smiled slightly, nodded to Bei Bei, and raised his hand to indicate that Bei Bei could continue.

"Now, all male students who have participated in today's Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event, please prepare yourselves. Forty beams of light will appear in the lake shortly. Students who are closest to us, the Sea God's Lake Fairies, will proceed to the first round first. Students who are further back may not be able to obtain a suitable ranking in the first round."

"So everyone, please be careful. No matter how you land on the water lily leaf where the light pillar is, you've secured a spot. But whatever you do, don't fall into the water, or you'll be disqualified."

"Everyone get ready, three, two, one."

"start!"

Thirty-nine beams of light suddenly shot out from under the lake surface. These thirty-nine beams of light were arranged in three neat rows. With Beibei's shout of "Start!", the people on the shore immediately started moving at the same time.

The inner court students also displayed their extraordinary abilities, with dazzling soul rings appearing one after another as they rushed towards the Sea God Lake. In an instant, all sorts of dazzling soul skills, soul tools, and martial souls appeared one after another. He Caitou and Huo Zhanji both landed in the first row, and even in the middle position. Xu Sanshi lived up to his reputation as a scoundrel by using Xuanming Exchange to get himself a good position.

After seeing that everyone was ready, Beibei announced loudly, "Sea God's Fate at Sea God Lake! Tonight, it's time for the annual Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event. I'm sure everyone has been looking forward to it for a long time. The blind date event consists of five parts. Is everyone ready?"

Zhang Lexuan continued, "Tonight, we will also be selecting the most beautiful sea fairy and the happiest male student. But first, you must unveil the sea fairies' veils."

Huo Zhanji stood steadily on the water lilies.

"Alright, let's begin the first segment—mutual appreciation..." Zhang Lexuan said with a smile.

Xu Sanshi was already eager to get started; he had secured the first position. Naturally, he would be the first to perform in this segment where they admired each other.

Even without Huo Zhanji's mental detection, Xu Sanshi still managed to find Jiang Nannan. Although he took off his straw hat, he was still kicked solidly by Jiang Nannan.

In Huo Zhanji's opinion, the actions of the next few people were even more impressive than those of himself, a notorious bandit. Gu Fan attempted to use his wings to lift himself up and pounce on the group of girls, but was immediately eliminated by two hot-tempered senior girls.

Perhaps because Han Ruoruo and Wu Ming greatly intimidated the male students, the next few to appear were all quite conventional. It's unclear whether the brothers who made the move were trembling with fear, but none of the five or six who tried to make a move succeeded.

"Hey, are you all born in the year of the Yellow Croaker? Why are you all swimming along the edge? For love, you need to have a spirit of disregarding everything. Otherwise, how can you win the hearts of girls?" Zhang Lexuan said with a smile.

Encouraged by her, the next few male trainees performed much better than the previous ones, and finally lifted their two hats. Of the eighteen female trainees, three had now revealed their true faces.

Chu Qingtian, standing next to Huo Zhanji, was also quite cunning. He used a tactic of stirring up trouble, initially intending to lift Han Ruoruo's hat, but just as everyone else breathed a sigh of relief, he turned around and lifted the hat of the Golden Crow Saintess Wu Ming.

"Next up, Huo Zhanji." Zhang Lexuan looked at Huo Zhanji.

Huo Zhanji was dressed in a blue and white formal suit, with his long silver hair draped over his shoulders. A solemn expression appeared on his face, making him look like an immortal descending to earth.

"Hmm," Huo Zhanji said.

Huo Zhanji: You all step back, watch closely, I'm about to start showing off.

He then stepped out of the water lily leaf. Unlike all the other male students from the inner court who had made a move before, the lake surface beneath his feet began to freeze the moment Huo Zhanji took a step. When he walked on the water, a layer of ice would naturally condense as his feet landed, becoming his foothold. For Huo Zhanji at present, freezing the entire Sea God Lake would not take much effort.

Huo Zhanji stopped when he was about fifteen meters away from the female students. As he got closer, the female students could see his face clearly. Huo Zhanji was indeed young, but his handsome appearance concealed his young age. His eyes looked very clear and without any impurities, giving people a sense of composure.
