Douluo Continent: Starting with a Heavenly Fire Judgment

Chapter 85 Meeting

Wang Yan smiled slightly, seemingly gentle, but actually containing a hint of sinister intent, and said: "I think that if any of the students selected to participate in the class assessment makes a mistake that lowers their evaluation, the whole class will remember him."

"That's all I have to say. get out of class dismissed. Go back and pack your things." Wang Yan waved his hand, announcing the end of get out of class.

The students in Class 1 of Grade 1 were all dumbfounded. Their original excitement had completely vanished. Even the students who were confident that they could pass the upgrade assessment were stunned by this blow.

The class assessment put immense pressure on all the students.

I imagine no one will slack off on their training during the holidays.

Because they were about to leave the academy for the holidays, Ji Lin and the others decided to have a meal together on their last day.

The classmates who were close to each other also gathered together to discuss how to spend the last day.

Ji Lin, Wang Qiu'er, and Wang Dong'er were present. Huo Yuhao invited Bei Bei, Tang Ya, and He Caitou, while Xiao Xiao invited Lan Susu and Lan Luoluo. Cui Yajie, who hadn't gotten along well with Xiao Xiao before, was also there, suggesting that their relationship had improved recently.

Ji Lin did not invite Dai Huabin because of Huo Yuhao, but he invited Zhou Sichen, Cao Jinxuan, and Huang Chutian, who were considered to be among the better students in Class 1. He also invited Wu Feng, but Wu Feng declined because he had to go to see Ning Tian.

There were quite a few people at this dinner party, and it didn't end until late at night.

Afterwards, Ji Lin went to say goodbye to Zhang Lexuan and Ma Xiaotao alone. After a tearful farewell, he returned to his dormitory to rest.

Another morning.

Ji Lin and Wang Qiu'er walked along the path by the Sea God Lake. With their storage soul tools, they naturally didn't need to carry any burdens.

On Poseidon Lake, mist filled the air, and the humid air was blown by the breeze, making their school uniforms a little damp.

Although the lakeside path is long, it eventually comes to an end. As the sun slowly rises, the moisture gradually dissipates.

Ji Lin looked at Wang Qiu'er and asked, "Are you really not planning to go back?"

Wang Qiu'er said calmly, "I snuck out, and it won't be so easy for me to come out again after I go back."

Ji Lin smiled and said, "Then come back to the Star Luo Empire with me. You have nowhere else to go, don't you?"

Wang Qiu'er naturally agreed to Ji Lin's invitation, nodding her head in acceptance.

Ji Lin was very happy and took Wang Qiu'er's hand as they walked out of the academy. Chi Yuan was still waiting for them outside.

As soon as they exited the city gate, Ji Lin saw that familiar figure and grabbed Wang Qiu'er, running towards her.

The two approached Chi Yuan, and Ji Lin smiled and said, "Teacher Chi Yuan, thank you for waiting."

Chi Yuan smiled and nodded, saying, "It's alright, I just arrived not long ago."

Then she looked at Wang Qiu'er. She was familiar with Wang Qiu'er. Ji Lin would bring Wang Qiu'er to see her whenever he had time. Ji Lin had also told her about Wang Qiu'er's identity, and she was well aware of their relationship.

Wang Qiu'er also knew Chi Yuan. Not only had Ji Lin introduced her to Chi Yuan a few times, but it was also Chi Yuan who brought Ji Lin and her to meet the Red King in the Star Dou Great Forest.

She knew that Chi Yuan was a powerful figure no less than Di Tian.

Seeing Chi Yuan looking at Wang Qiu'er, Ji Lin explained, "Qiu'er has nowhere to go, so I'm planning to take her back to the Star Luo Empire."

Chi Yuan looked at Ji Lin with a strange expression. She knew that there was a Princess Jiu Jiu in the Star Luo Empire waiting for Ji Lin. Was Ji Lin taking his girlfriend home to meet his fiancée? What kind of move was this? She couldn't understand it.

However, this was Ji Lin's decision, and she didn't say much. Based on her understanding of Ji Lin, she figured Ji Lin must be confident in appeasing both sides before allowing the two to meet.

Since they weren't in a hurry, the three bought a carriage and headed towards the Star Luo Empire.

Several days passed, and the carriage arrived safely in Xingluo City. As they entered the city, a guard went to inform Xu Jiujiu.

So when the group arrived at the capital, Xu Jiujiu was already standing gracefully at the entrance, waiting.

As Ji Lin got out of the car, Xu Jiujiu ran towards him with a smile on her face. However, when she saw Wang Qiu'er coming out with Ji Lin, her smile froze for a moment, but she quickly put on a smile again.

Ji Lin also saw Xu Jiujiu running over and quickly opened his arms to catch her as she rushed towards him.

Holding Jiu Jiu's soft, delicate body in his arms, Ji Lin smiled happily and said, "Sister Jiu Jiu, it's been so long! You've become even more beautiful."

After a long while, she broke free from Ji Lin's embrace and teased with a smile, "Still the same as before, so glib-tongued."

However, she was still very happy to hear Ji Lin's praise. She first bowed to Chi Yuan, then looked at Wang Qiu'er beside Ji Lin and said, "Little Lin, won't you introduce this younger sister to your older sister?"

Her tone was gentle, and her words carried no hostility, but the mention of "sister" clearly signaled her assertion of dominance.

Regardless of their apparent age or the fact that Ji Lin was the first to establish a relationship with her, everyone else was her younger sister.

While Ji Lin was studying at Shrek Academy, she actually kept in touch with Xu Jiujiu through letters, and she knew about all the girls Ji Lin met at Shrek Academy.

She was mentally prepared, but she didn't expect to see him so soon.

Ji Lin understood the hidden meaning in Xu Jiujiu's words, and Wang Qiu'er also understood, but she only frowned and did not speak, indicating that she would leave everything to Ji Lin.

When Ji Lin saw Xu Jiujiu referring to himself as "older sister" in front of Wang Qiu'er, he almost couldn't help but laugh, but he held it in.

In terms of seniority, she is indeed the older sister, but in terms of age, Wang Qiu'er is Xu Jiujiu's ancestor.

He suppressed a laugh and introduced Xu Jiujiu: "Sister Jiujiu, this is Wang Qiu'er, my classmate at Shrek Academy, and also my girlfriend."

When Wang Qiu'er first heard Ji Lin introduce her as his classmate, her eyes turned cold, and she felt wronged and wanted to cry. But when Ji Lin introduced her as his girlfriend in front of everyone, all her grievances turned into gratitude and happiness. Her gaze towards Ji Lin became incredibly gentle.

When Ji Lin openly declared that Wang Qiu'er was his girlfriend, she looked helpless but not angry. She already knew this, and being born into the royal family, she was very accepting of such things. Which of the nobles in the empire didn't have several wives and lovers?

She got used to it after seeing it so many times.

At least Ji Lin didn't hide anything from her; instead, he told her everything honestly.

Ji Lin then introduced Xu Jiujiu to Wang Qiu'er, "Qiu'er, this is Xu Jiujiu, the princess of the Star Luo Empire, and also my fiancée."

Wang Qiu'er had known Xu Jiujiu for a long time. Ji Lin had the most memories of Xu Jiujiu. Ji Lin had also mentioned before that he had a fiancée in the Star Luo Empire, and she had long guessed that it was Xu Jiujiu.
