Douluo Continent: A Fallen Immortal Descends to Earth, Slaying Gods with a Drunken Sword

Chapter 493 Sea God's Fate at Sea God Lake, Sea God's Fate Tournament Begins (Bonus Chapter)

Huo Yuhao sighed in exasperation, wanting to refuse.

Seeing the earnest expectation in the old man's eyes, he finally nodded helplessly.

"Teacher, I'll participate..."

He hesitated for a moment, then continued:
"But teacher... I don't know many of the students very well..."

"What if no one chooses me... wouldn't that be embarrassing..."

"No one chose you?"

A strange expression, rarely seen on Moon's face, appeared.

"Yuhao, your talent for cultivation is unparalleled, how come you're so oblivious when it comes to matters of the heart?"

He handed over the newspaper he was holding.

"You take a look at this first."

Actually, when I first came back...

Huo Yuhao was somewhat puzzled.

Almost every Shrek student had a copy.

He looked down.

The first six characters on the cover read: "Sea God's Fate - The Wall of Words".

"A wall of open communication?"

Huo Yuhao continued reading.

Lines of poignant and melancholic sentences leap into view.

"Teacher, why are you looking at these things?"

Mu En smiled leisurely:

"Seeing the thoughts and feelings of these young people makes me feel like my old bones have become a few years younger."

"Yuhao, turn it over and take a look."

Huo Yuhao did as instructed and turned the magazine over.

A line of eye-catching large characters suddenly caught my eye.

—The most anticipated pairing of the Sea God's Fate.

Below are three names: Huo Yuhao, Zhang Lexuan, and Ma Xiaotao.

He looked surprised.

After reading it word by word, you will see a long and detailed account of speculation and description.

His usually calm face

The awkwardness and embarrassment of the young man gradually surfaced.

"Teacher, this...this is all a rumor!"

"I am not aware of the matter concerning the three of you."

Moon put his hands behind his back and strolled toward the boys' dormitory, his gentle laughter drifting on the breeze.

"Since you have agreed to participate in the Sea God's Fate, your master will also be there."

"Yuhao, get ready."

It was nearly noon when we left the garden.

Huo Yuhao went to the inner courtyard canteen.

I just stepped inside.

He then regretted it.

A variety of gazes, each with a different meaning, quietly fell upon him from all directions.

He was about to turn and leave.

A clear, crisp voice suddenly rang out from a corner of the cafeteria.

"Hey, Yuhao, over here!"

Follow the sound.

Xiao Xiao, Wang Dong, Jiang Nannan, Xu Sanshi, and He Caitou sat around a table and waved to him in unison.

Huo Yuhao got his food and went over.

"Sit here with me!"

Xu Sanshi moved aside to make room.

Huo Yuhao smiled.

He sat down between Xu Sanshi and He Caitou.

Everyone was delighted to see him.

Only Wang Dong had his eyelashes slightly lowered, and he was biting his chopsticks absentmindedly.

"Hey, Yuhao..."

Xiao Xiao, a lively girl, was about to speak excitedly when Jiang Nannan silenced her with a piece of food.

Jiang Nannan knew what Xiaoxiao wanted to ask, but was afraid Huo Yuhao would have a hard time answering, so she thought for a moment and tentatively asked:
"Yuhao, will you participate in the Sea God's Fate event this time?"

The eyes of everyone at the table turned to the young man in the blue robe.

Even Wang Dong, who had been silent, raised his head, his eyes flickering slightly.

"join."

Huo Yuhao nodded.

"Yo ho!"

Xu Sanshi let out a strange cry.

A smile appeared on He Caitou's honest face.

Xiao Xiao and Jiang Nannan exchanged a glance, their eyes sparkling with excitement.

The same thought simultaneously arose in their minds:
Could it be that all those rumors circulating about the matchmaking agency are true?
"Yuhao, this is for you!"

He Caitou pushed a clear glass of drink in front of him toward Huo Yuhao. Before Huo Yuhao could even take it, he smelled the aroma of the wine.

"Is the academy still serving alcohol today?"

"Yes!"

Xu Sanshi pointed to two large wooden barrels in front of the canteen window.

"Tomorrow is the Sea God's Fate Festival."

"This is a long-standing tradition of the academy... like the 'last night of farewell to celibacy,' alcohol is served all day today, unlimited."

"Try it, this grape wine is very smooth."

Huo Yuhao took a sip.

The fruity aroma and mellow sweetness melt on the lips and teeth, refreshing and delightful.

His eyes brightened slightly, and he thought to himself:
"We'll have to get a jug later; I heard that guy loves wine the most."

"That person helped me so much, and I really have no way to repay them."

"I can only wait until I ascend to the God Star to bring him a few jars of this world's finest wine as a small token of my affection."

Xiao Xiao and the others wanted to ask something else.

Huo Yuhao, however, was unwilling to discuss the matter further.

He asked instead:
Where is Beibei?

As soon as these words came out.

The smiles on their faces faded slightly.

"Beibei went to keep Tang Ya company."

Huo Yuhao nodded silently.

He naturally knew why Beibei stayed by Tang Ya's side without leaving her side.

Because the letter reminding Beibei "not to let Tang Ya leave Shrek" was sent by him.

"Teacher Tang Ya treated me extremely well in my past life."

"When I left the Duke's mansion, I was like a drifting duckweed. It was through her and Senior Brother Beibei that I rediscovered warmth."

"The reason she decided to leave was simply because she felt that her talent was limited and that the road ahead was difficult."

"But if we want to improve our talent, there might still be a chance..."

Huo Yuhao lowered his head and took a sip of soup, a slight ripple in his eyes.

"In the Valley of Love and Destiny, there may be immortal herbs that can help people enhance their talents."

"After the Sea God's Fate event concludes, I will tell Senior Brother Beibei and invite everyone to join me in exploring it."

He chatted with Xu Sanshi and a few others for a while.

Huo Yuhao stood up to take his leave.

He needs to return to the inn to continue his practice.

Nothing can interfere with his spiritual practice.

Huo Yuhao left.

The group immediately lowered their voices and began to discuss it with great interest.

"Who do you think Yuhao will choose in the end?"

"It must be Senior Sister! She's beautiful and has a great temperament. Who in the academy doesn't know that Yuhao and Senior Sister once took a walk by the Sea God Lake?"

"Tch, Senior Xiaotao isn't bad either! Someone even saw Senior Xiaotao and Yuhao entering and leaving the hostel together!"

The group was chatting animatedly.

Wang Dong remained silent, her teeth leaving shallow marks on the wooden chopsticks.

Xiao Xiao turned her head to look at her:

"Wang Dong, what's wrong?"

"No...it's okay."

Wang Dong shook his head.

She felt increasingly strange about herself.

She should hate Huo Yuhao, but he always treated her with extreme indifference.

But every time I hear him being intimate with other girls, I feel inexplicably depressed.

It feels like...

A toy that should belong to me unexpectedly ended up being preferred by someone else.

Xu Sanshi then asked everyone if they were going to the Sea God's Fate tomorrow.

They all nodded and smiled, indicating that they wanted to watch the excitement.

Xiao Xiao looked at Wang Dong:

"What about you?"

Wang Dong unconsciously twirled a strand of blue hair that fell over his shoulder, paused for a moment, and then said softly:
"……I go."

this day.

Shrek Academy was filled with barely suppressed joy.

The commotion did not subside as the sun set; instead, it intensified as dusk deepened.

The air was filled with youthful anticipation, hidden trepidation, and all the beauty yet to be unlocked.

The sunset painted half the sky a warm, golden orange.

The afterglow of the setting sun gently bathed the campus.

One by one, the soul-guiding lamps cast hazy, ambiguous light.

Groups of young men and women, dressed in carefully chosen clothes, with smiles in their eyes and light steps, surged toward the direction of the Sea God Lake like streams flowing into the sea.

6 p.m.

The Sea God's Fate Tournament has officially begun.
