Shrek Academy, inside the Sea God's Pavilion...

Sitting in the first seat was naturally Elder Xuan, and occupying the other seats were the other members of the Sea God's Pavilion!

However, an area which usually formed a circle was now missing one spot...

Elder Xuan took a deep breath, solemnly saying, "This time, everything triggered by the Continental Young Soul Master Elite Competition can definitely be determined to have been tampered with by the Sun-Moon Empire!"

"Although we have annihilated a large force of the Holy Spirit Cult, we have also lost an important member of the Sea God's Pavilion, Qian Duoduo!"

"Therefore, I hope that everyone can see him off on his last journey! Let him depart in peace, all members of the Sea God's Pavilion, stand up!"

As his words fell, Elder Xuan stood up first, closed his eyes, and placed his right hand on his chest...

Following suit, Yan Shaozhe, Xian Lin'er, Cai Mei'er, Elder Qian Yu, Zhang Lexuan... all stood up in turn, likewise closing their eyes and placing their right hands on their chests...

The entire Sea God's Pavilion fell into silence...

After a long while, all eyes reopened...

Elder Xuan's gaze was fixed on the only vacant seat. With a wave of his palm toward it, a burst of Soul Power gently moved the chair away...

Having done this, Elder Xuan then said, "Everyone, please sit down."

When everyone was seated again, Elder Xuan spoke up once more, "In this battle, facing two Ultimate Douluo, Long Xiaoyao and Ye Xishui, if it had not been for the help of two seniors from the Hao Tian Clan, I'm afraid we all would have perished at the hands of the Sun-Moon Empire."

"So, I invite you all to share your thoughts."

Fan Yu was the first to speak, "I think that the collaboration between the Sun-Moon Empire and the Holy Spirit Cult this time might have been based on some sort of agreement, such as the Holy Spirit Cult helping the Sun-Moon Empire eliminate these sects!"

Xian Lin'er immediately added, "I also think it's possible that to simultaneously weaken the power of the Great Sects and the Holy Spirit Cult, the Sun-Moon Empire could then reap the benefits of a fisherman!"

Yan Shaozhe frowned, "The problem is the purpose behind their weakening the Great Sects; we have absolutely no idea."

Elder Zhuang said, "No! We can still guess some clues. The Sun-Moon Empire is so anxious to popularize soul tools throughout its entire army, its purpose is definitely not simple."

Elder Qian Yu just leaned back in his chair, quietly watching the members of the Sea God's Pavilion discuss...

Xuan Ziwen proposed his own idea, "Could it be that the Sun-Moon Empire has already harbored thoughts of annexing other empires? And these sects happen to be in the way, so they thought of using this opportunity to use the Holy Spirit Cult to weaken them..."

Upon saying this, all eyes in the Sea God's Pavilion turned towards Zhang Lexuan...

This possibility had occurred to them all, but given the current overall strength of the Sun-Moon Empire, it seemed unlikely they had such power...

Elder Xuan narrowed his eyes, "Do not underestimate the power of soul tools. In war, soul tools' lethality to regular armies is much greater than that of Soul Masters!"

"Perhaps, without the interference of the Great Sects, the Sun-Moon Empire could swallow the other two empires without much effort!"

Before his death, Mu En always warned Shrek Academy to focus on the development of soul tools, or else he would not have sent Huo Yuhao and Elder Qian Yu to study at the Sun Moon Royal Soul Guidance Device Academy!

Elder Song stroked his beard, "Thinking about it this way, it does seem like they indeed have the capability!"

Cai Mei'er hesitated, "However, our Shrek Academy has always been known for neutrality, and it wouldn't be good to obstruct them too much!"

Fan Yu narrowed his eyes, "But what if they are collaborating with evil Soul Masters? Then our Shrek Academy cannot stand by idly!"

....

When Elder Qian Yu stepped out of the Sea God's Pavilion, he saw Tang Wutong waiting outside alone...

Elder Qian Yu said in surprise, "Wutong, just you by yourself?"

Tang Wutong and the people of the Tang Sect usually came together...

Tang Wutong chuckled upon hearing him, "What? Should I go call Sister Xiao Tao then?"

Qian Yu wanted to walk over and take her hand, and smiled faintly, "There's no need for that. Having you here is enough, let's go, we should leave this place."

Tang Wutong nimbly avoided Qian Yu's hand and blinked her pinkish-purple eyes playfully, "No way, not unless you catch me!"

With those words, the gorgeous wings behind her suddenly spread out, flitting into the air like Psylockes, with countless sparkling, translucent particles constantly twinkling...

This breathtakingly beautiful scene was almost too enchanting for one to bear to take their eyes off...

Qian Yu couldn't help but purse his lips and smiled lightly, "Alright! Then I'll catch you."

Thereupon, he decisively released his Martial Soul, and a hundred-meter-tall, supremely beautiful Goddess of Light, glowing with a white aura, materialized behind him...

The Goddess of Light's beautiful eyes opened gently, then turned to look at Tang Wutong in midair...

A charming smile appeared on her lips, and she reached out her jade hand towards Tang Wutong to gently caress...

The inner court students observing from the side were smacking their lips, "Elder Qian Yu and Sister Dong'er really make a perfect match!"

Another female student had stars in her eyes, "That's right! Elder Qian Yu is handsome and strong. If it weren't for having a partner like Sister Dong'er, who makes me feel inferior, I would have wanted to pursue Elder Qian Yu too!"

"My God, the way Elder Qian Yu and all are showing off their affection is just too much! The Goddess of Light butterfly resting on the palm of the Goddess of Light, I'm so jealous!"

"Do you think Elder Qian Yu could also perform a Soul Fusion Skill with Sister Dong'er?"

"That should be impossible, right! Although they seem very similar, that's exactly why it's even less likely."

Little did they know, on the other side, the members of the Tang Sect watching this scene were all filled with sentiment...

The reason they hadn't gone with Tang Wutong was exactly to give the two some alone time...

After all, even though it was already announced they were together, anyone with eyes could see that the relationship had yet to make any real progress...

Jiang Nannan's eyes sparkled, "I'm so envious, maybe Qian Yu and Wutong were fated to be together, Goddess of Light, Goddess of Light Butterfly~~"

Next to her, Xu Sanshi flashed what he thought was a suave smile, "Nannan, we're also a good match, aren't we?"

Bei Bei mercilessly burst his bubble, "Tsk tsk tsk, Xu Sanshi, have some shame, okay? Anyone would be congratulated to be matched with Nannan, except for you, who deserves sympathy!"

Tang Ya fanned the flames without any hesitation, "That's right! That's right!"

Xu Sanshi glared at Bei Bei, grinding his teeth, "Bei Bei, are you looking for a fight?"

Bei Bei raised an eyebrow, "Let's fight then, I'm not scared of your mediocre fighting skills."

...

By the glimmering banks of Sea God's Lake, two figures sat quietly...

It was Qian Yu and Tang Wutong...

At this moment, Tang Wutong was leaning on Qian Yu's shoulder, and under the bright moonlight, their bodies were both coated in layers of silver radiance, especially Tang Wutong, whose already captivating face was further sublimated...

Tang Wutong released Qian Yu's arm, and with silver-lit beautiful eyes, she gazes seriously at him, "Qian Yu, why do you like me?"

Qian Yu was stunned for a moment and spoke softly, "I don't know... maybe... it's fate."

Looking into each other's eyes, Qian Yu and Tang Wutong understood each other intuitively and closed their eyes, slowly moving in for a kiss...

When their lips touched, they felt incredibly cool, along with an irresistible desire surging up...
