Douluo Continent: The Ice King's Resurrection

Chapter 106, Section 105: Meeting an Acquaintance

Before long, the group of four arrived at the east gate of Shrek City, where there were more than a dozen young men about the same age as Beibei and Tangya guarding the gate. Each of them was dressed in a yellow outfit with a green pattern on their chest.

They were wearing the school uniforms of second and third-year students from the outer academy of Shrek Academy.

Logically speaking, as students of Shrek Academy's outer court, and having already passed through the most difficult first year, they should have a touch of pride even when recruiting new students.

However, when the four arrived, they found that all ten or so Shrek Academy students were working with their heads down, not daring to breathe loudly.

However, the four of them were not surprised, because there was a slender figure standing in front of the dozen or so Shrek Academy students.

She was a woman in red, with a slender and well-proportioned figure. The first thing that would catch the eye was her slightly exaggerated breasts, firm, high, and seemingly about to burst forth...

Further down, her waist was very slender, only widening abruptly at her hips, and her legs were straight and rounded.

Even with just a light glance, you can feel the strong youthful energy emanating from her.

However, no one could see her face, because a red veil covered her lips. Nevertheless, from the glimpse of her beauty peeking through her eyes and brows, it was clear she was an absolute beauty.

Her pale pink eyes easily gave off a captivating allure, but fortunately, her cold gaze suppressed that seductive allure. Standing there, she was like a burning flame. At the same time, her aloof and elegant demeanor radiated an invisible power and pressure.

Inner Court Disciple!

At Shrek Academy, only students from the inner court are qualified to wear red school uniforms, which is the color of the soul ring of the strongest 100,000-year-old soul beast.

Every year, Shrek Academy enrolls nearly a thousand new students, but very few are able to complete the six-year program and join the inner academy.

Being able to meet even an inner court student is something that people in Shrek City can brag about for a long time.

But now, this stunning beauty from the inner courtyard is clearly waiting for someone.

What kind of person could make an inner court student wait?

Feeling the imposing aura emanating from the inner courtyard beauties, the outer courtyard students, dressed in yellow school uniforms, were nervous but also incredibly curious.

"What kind of person will he be?" The students' curiosity was burning fiercely.

However, among the four, Beibei, upon seeing this figure, was so surprised his eyes almost popped out. He couldn't help but exclaim, "Sister Xiaotao? What are you doing here?"

Beibei's words also drew the attention of the figure and the surrounding crowd. Upon seeing the four people in this direction, the eyes of the beautiful woman in the inner courtyard and the onlookers lit up.

The beautiful woman from the inner courtyard walked directly towards the four people, which made the onlookers' eyes light up even more.

Speaking of Beibei, students from that department are quite familiar with her.

Thunderbolt Baby's name is known to everyone in the entire Shrek Academy. Many beautiful senior and junior students have shown their affection for him, either openly or secretly. Unfortunately, he is only interested in Tang Ya, leaving many girls sighing with regret.

Now that I see this, could it be... hehehe...?

The onlookers became even more engrossed in the watch.

Unfortunately, the story did not unfold as they had imagined. The fiery figure completely ignored Beibei, who was greeting him, and walked straight toward a strong figure behind him.

Looking at the smiling figure in front of her, who was slightly taller than her and whom she hadn't seen for a while, the beauty from the inner courtyard patted Ling Bingtian on the shoulder. "Long time no see, little brother Tian."

After speaking, her eyes crinkled into crescent moons with laughter, and the coldness in her gaze vanished completely. This caused many men who were secretly observing the area to momentarily lose their composure, then cast envious or jealous glances at the person she was facing.

"It's been a while, Sister Xiaotao." Ling Bingtian looked at the lovely woman in front of him and gave her a warm and sunny smile, which also captivated many of the opposite sexes who were looking in their direction.

Ling Bingtian's answer revealed the identity of the beauty from the inner courtyard.

She was none other than Ma Xiaotao, the Flame Demon of Shrek Academy's inner court, one of the two active volcanoes. The reason she appeared at this new student registration point at the East Gate was precisely for Ling Bingtian, who had come from afar.

Since Ling Bingtian started going out to fight, Ma Xiaotao has fought alongside him for a period of time every year in the northern border of the Heavenly Soul Empire.

The last time the two met was more than half a year ago, when Ma Xiaotao came to Ling Bingtian again to suppress the evil fire in her body that was showing signs of resurgence. The two of them fought together with the Soul Master team that Ling Bingtian followed for a period of time until Ma Xiaotao completed her inner courtyard inspection mission and had to return to the school to report. Only then did the two part ways again.

During his years of combat, in his spare time, Ling Bingtian would exchange life experiences and perspectives with Ma Xiaotao. Despite his young age, Ling Bingtian's soul came from another highly developed society.

Many of his words deeply influenced Ma Xiaotao's thinking and changed some of her bad habits.

Similarly, as Ling Bingtian grew up, Ma Xiaotao always developed some strange feelings for him deep down. This made the usually carefree Ma Xiaotao feel a vague sense of wanting to get closer to Ling Bingtian, yet also being somewhat afraid to do so.

However, knowing that Ling Bingtian would be coming this year, Ma Xiaotao naturally couldn't avoid it, so she went to the freshman registration area to wait for Ling Bingtian's arrival.

As she expected, Ling Bingtian didn't keep her waiting long. However, the person who came with him made Ma Xiaotao feel a little strange.

Ling Bingtian was actually traveling with Beibei and his girlfriend, and they even had a little follower he didn't recognize. This combination piqued Ma Xiaotao's curiosity.

Always straightforward, Ma Xiaotao naturally wouldn't let her curiosity go unsatisfied, so she asked directly.

"Little Tian, ​​Bei Bei, what's going on with you two? Why are you here together?"

Seeing Bei Bei standing there dumbfounded and still unable to react, Ling Bingtian had no choice but to step in and explain what had happened in the past few days.

"What? You've already broken through to the Soul Master level?" Unexpectedly, the part that interested Ma Xiaotao the most in Ling Bingtian's entire speech was that Ling Bingtian had already broken through to the Soul Master level.

"Yes, what's wrong?" Ling Bingtian was still a little puzzled as to why Ma Xiaotao was surprised, or rather, delighted, about this.

"Hehe, just follow me and you'll understand." With that, Ma Xiaotao grabbed Ling Bingtian's hand and walked into the East Gate, completely ignoring the strange looks from the people around them, leaving Bei Bei, Tang Ya, and Huo Yuhao bewildered in the wind.

Given Ma Xiaotao's red school uniform, naturally no one at the East Gate would dare to stop her and Ling Bingtian, and she led Ling Bingtian straight into the East Gate.

"What on earth happened?" Huo Yuhao murmured to himself. He was the only one who knew absolutely nothing about the situation. He didn't even know what the red school uniform Ma Xiaotao was wearing meant.

Unfortunately, at this point, no one was there to answer his questions.

Beibei was still surprised that Ma Xiaotao would come out to pick her up, Tang Ya was still trying to wake up the startled Beibei, and the onlookers around were watching the receding figure with all sorts of eyes.

"We've got something to talk about tonight!" This was the most genuine reaction from the vast majority of people outside the East Gate.
