Chapter 745: Boy Number 51S Face Reveal (1/2)

811'>

The female disciples remained completely unmoved. Xu Lizhi's rotund face twitched, and a hint of dejection flashed through his eyes.

If he were at any other Soul Master academy, he would definitely be considered an extraordinary talent as a food-type Soul Master who was able to also become a one-word battle armor master. However, this was Shrek Academy, an academy that prided itself on taking in only freakish talents. He was a food-type Soul Master, and his appearance was well below average due to his portly figure, so it was very difficult for him to receive any attention from members of the opposite s.e.x.

Right at this moment, a light was suddenly switched on.

A shocked expression appeared on Xu Lizhi's face as he cast his gaze toward that direction, and he discovered that Ye Xinglan was standing above the lit light in her inner court uniform.

Ye Xinglan was a stunning beauty as well, but she never paid any heed to her own appearance. She was constantly engaged in arduous cultivation and doing everything she could to improve her own swordsmans.h.i.+p. As such, she attracted far less attention than the likes of Xu Xiaoyan and Yuanen Yehui.

However, in the instant that she switched on her light for him, Xu Lizhi felt a rush of blood surge into his head.

At the same time, three more lights were switched. They belonged to Yuanen Yehui, Xu Xiaoyan, and Girl Number 17, who still had her veil on.

Boy Number 51, who was standing in the front row, almost instantly cast his gaze toward Girl Number 17, and a hint of emotion flashed through his eyes.

In contrast, the excitement in Xu Lizhi's eyes gradually faded as he suddenly realized that only his friends had switched on their lights for him, so they'd most likely done so out of pity. A wry smile appeared on Xu Lizhi's face as this realization dawned on him.

”Alright, four of our celestial maidens have switched on their lights for Boy Number 32. Let's continue...”

One male disciple after another was thrust under the limelight, and all of them received different results. The male partic.i.p.ants with exceptional looks and powers naturally had a greater chance of escaping elimination.

Finally, it was time for the second-to-last male partic.i.p.ant again, and Long Yue of Monster Academy took the stage.

”Please switch on your lights for Boy Number 50,” Lan Muzi announced as he took a meaningful look at Long Yue's hulking figure.

Not a single light was switched on. All of the female partic.i.p.ants simply stood on the spot with indifferent expressions.

Long Yue didn't have any hair, but he certainly wasn't ugly. He was a hulking mountain of a man, and his power certainly matched his burly stature. At just 23 years of age, he was already a seven-ring Soul Sage. This was not exactly unprecedented, but it was most definitely an extraordinary feat. At the very least, there was no one in the inner court of Shrek Academy at the same age as him that could match his cultivation rank.

However, despite how exceptional he was, not a single woman switched on their light for him.

”Let me remind everyone again; if no one switches on their light for him, then he'll be eliminated, which means he won't be able to partic.i.p.ate in the rest of this match-making convention. Please think carefully, celestial maidens, as your decisions will determine whether he stays or leaves,” Tang Yinmeng urged once again. However, there was still not a single female partic.i.p.ant who was willing to switch on their light for him, simply because he came from the Star Luo Empire and was an exchange student.

In reality, Shrek Academy wasn't a xenophobic place, but footage of the battle between Tang Wulin's team and the Monster Academy team had been viewed by virtually everyone in the inner court. That battle had been immortalized as a legend, and it was the main reason why Tang Wulin and his friends were able to become Shrek's Seven Monsters.

As a result, Long Yue had left an extremely strong negative impression in everyone's hearts as he'd almost killed Tang Wulin during this battle.

”At the same time, I must remind some of you that you still haven't switched on your lights for anyone yet. If you keep this up, then you'll also be eliminated following the conclusion of this segment. As such, I implore you all to choose wisely.”

Right at this moment, a light was suddenly switched on, and Long Yue's tightly furrowed brows finally eased as a faint smile appeared on his face. The light that he'd been waiting for had finally been switched on.

The 18-year-old princess was illuminated by the soul light, and the royal education she'd received gave her the appearance of a perfect n.o.blewoman. She was not as wilful and mischievous as she had been in the past. Instead, she appeared to be more refined and regal.

Their eyes met, and Dai Yun'er smiled at him. Long Yue also smiled, and in that instant, he seemed to have stood up straighter, striking everyone with the impression that a giant beast had just awakened before them.
