Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 217: Aside from being a womanizer, he's all virtues.

Wang Dong'er and Xiao Xiao had only recently joined the Inner Academy and were very curious about everything there. Like Ji Lin, Xiao Xiao enjoyed reading in the library or listening to lectures by Inner Academy teachers, especially Wang Yan's. Wang Yan always managed to make dry, dry knowledge points lively and interesting. He didn't adhere to traditional teaching methods but instead used various innovative approaches, allowing Inner Academy disciples to learn in a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere.

Moreover, Wang Yan has extensive theoretical knowledge, is gentle, and never refuses to answer questions from inner court students. He can point out the shortcomings of many inner court disciples one by one. Therefore, not only students like Xiao Xiao and Ji Lin who are very familiar with Wang Yan like his classes, but other inner court disciples also enjoy attending Wang Yan's classes.

It's worth mentioning that Ms. Wang Yan recently found love and started dating Ms. Qingya, an auctioneer at Starlight Auction House.

If Ji Lin and the others hadn't reminded Wang Yan of his agreement with Auctioneer Qingya, Wang Yan would definitely have missed out on Auctioneer Qingya and wouldn't know when he would be able to find a partner.

Like Wang Qiu'er, Wang Dong'er loved to fight in the Soul Battle Zone. One was a golden dragon girl and the other a goddess of light. The two challenged all the inner court disciples below the Soul Emperor level in the Soul Battle Zone, making them famous throughout the inner court.

In one year, Xu Jiujiu and Xu Jiawei have produced a batch of Holy Marks. Although there are no Holy Marks that are 100,000 years old, there are quite a few Holy Marks that are 10,000 years old.

At the same time, Xu Jiawei also submitted a letter of invitation to Shrek Academy. Xu Jiujiu will represent the Star Luo Empire, the Star Crown Sect, and more than a dozen other small and medium-sized sects to visit the Sea God Pavilion of Shrek Academy.

Although Yan Shaozhe and the others did not understand what the Star Crown Sect meant, Xu Jiawei's invitation mentioned that he had a very important matter to discuss with Shrek Academy, so they simply agreed to the Star Crown Sect's visit.

Xu Jiujiu has already set off from Xingluo City and will arrive at Shrek City in a few days.

Wang Qiu'er and Wang Dong'er went to the Soul Battle Zone to farm points. Xiao Xiao was also dragged along by Wang Dong'er. She also needed to fulfill the academy's requirement to participate in at least three battles in the Soul Battle Zone each week.

Ji Lin went to the library to read alone. For some reason, Xue Nu kept urging him to go to the Zizaimen branch in Shrek City to find Chi Yuan, saying that she needed to get something from Chi Yuan, but she wouldn't say what it was. The two of them were acting all mysterious. In the end, Ji Lin could only squeeze in a trip to the Zizaimen branch. Xue Nu didn't know what she got from Chi Yuan, but she returned to the Holy Mark Space in a secretive manner, leaving Ji Lin completely confused. When did these two become so close?

As Ji Lin was browsing through the bookshelves of the library, searching for instructional books on using twin martial souls simultaneously, he suddenly felt himself bump into a soft body. Books scattered all over the floor. Ji Lin instinctively crouched down to pick them up, and the person he bumped into also crouched down to pick up their books.

"I'm sorry, it was my fault," Ji Lin said as he crouched down. He knew he had bumped into someone, and apologizing first was the right thing to do.

Han Ruoruo looked up and saw Ji Lin's handsome face, her heart skipped a beat. "It's nothing, I didn't notice either," she replied, her voice clear and melodious.

Ji Lin felt the voice sounded familiar, and looked up in surprise at the person opposite her, exclaiming in astonishment, "Senior Sister Han, it's you?!"

Han Ruoruo raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "Why can't it be me? Can't I come here to read?"

Ji Lin quickly waved his hand and said, "No, I was just surprised to run into you here, senior."

Han Ruoruo said, "I often come here to read, so it's normal for me to run into you."

Ji Lin wanted to say that he often came here to read books, so why had he never run into him!

The two picked up the books and put them back on the shelf. Han Ruoruo looked at Ji Lin with a scrutinizing gaze and said, "You must be Ji Lin."

Ji Lin looked at Han Ruoruo with a puzzled expression and asked, "Does Senior Sister know me?"

Han Ruoruo smiled and nodded, saying, "I wouldn't say we know each other, I've just heard Le Xuan mention you a few times."

She and Zhang Lexuan once represented Shrek Academy in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament and won the championship. During that time, the two became best friends and confidantes.

She couldn't hide the fact that her best friend had a boyfriend from her. She had long wanted to meet Ji Lin and see what kind of man could win over the aloof and ethereal senior sister of the inner courtyard.

Judging from appearance alone, Ji Lin was definitely the most handsome boy she had ever seen. As for cultivation, considering Ji Lin's age, it was also at a monster level. Based on these two things alone, Ji Lin was definitely worthy of her best friend. The only thing that made her a little dissatisfied was that Ji Lin had ambiguous relationships with several female disciples of the inner court. However, Zhang Lexuan did not say anything, and as her best friend, she could not gossip too much.

Overall, she had a pretty good impression of Ji Lin. He was handsome, talented, polite, and loved reading. Apart from being a womanizer, he had all the good qualities.

No wonder he managed to win over her best friend, who was at the top of the inner academy! And given Le Xuan's personality, the fact that she could tolerate his philandering suggests there's more to their story.

Ji Lin suddenly realized that he also knew that Han Ruoruo and Zhang Lexuan were very close friends, so it was normal for him to have heard about him from Zhang Lexuan.

Ji Lin looked at Han Ruoruo with a half-smile and said, "Senior Sister Han's appearance here must not be a coincidence, right? You came here specifically to find me, didn't you?"

Han Ruoruo asked in surprise, "Why do you say that?"

Ji Lin laughed and said, "Because I've been coming here to read books a lot lately, but I haven't seen Senior Han here even once. And Senior Han has learned about me from Sister Le Xuan, so I guess she's looking for me because of Sister Le Xuan. Also, Senior Han was deliberately blocking my way just now, wasn't she?"

Han Ruoruo blushed, realizing she had been careless and forgotten about this. She hadn't been to the library to read books recently, and she had deliberately stood in front of Ji Lin to test him. Her best friend had been in too much danger, so of course she had to see what kind of person Ji Lin was.

She just didn't expect Ji Lin to be so smart, instantly guessing that she had come for Zhang Lexuan.

Having her purpose guessed, Han Ruoruo decided not to hide anything and went straight to the point: "I did come for Le Xuan. I have no intention of interfering with Le Xuan's choices, nor do I have the right to meddle. But I want to talk to you, not to advise you to leave Le Xuan or anything like that. I'm not that arrogant. I just want to know, do you really like Le Xuan? As far as I know, your relationship with Xiao Tao and Luo Chen is ambiguous, and you also have a girlfriend on the surface, Wang Qiu'er. Although there are many men with multiple wives and concubines in this Douluo Continent, can you really make Le Xuan happy?"
