Are You in Love with Shui Bing'er?

Just as Feng Xiaotian had expected, Meng Wanqing chose Shui Bing'er, Xue Wu, and Shui Yue'er.

Without a doubt, this was the most suitable choice.

Shui Bing'er and her younger sister, Shui Yue'er, could also unleash a Martial Soul Fusion Skill together.

"Dean Meng, then it's more or less settled."

Meng Wanqing nodded, though she still had her concerns.

"Even if our Three Elements Academy joins forces, with your current strength, I'm afraid it will still be difficult to defeat the Spirit Hall Team. There are only a little over six months left until the Preliminary Round. Will the team have enough time to build coordination? How confident are you?"

Feng Xiaotian had considered this issue as well.

"Dean Meng, please rest assured. I already have a plan. Once the members are confirmed, we can go to the Great Soul Arena for practical combat training and improve our mutual understanding."

Meng Wanqing's eyes lit up.

"That's not a bad idea. It's worth trying. Have you chosen the location?"

"I checked the map. To accommodate the three girls from Skywater Academy, we can choose a nearby Great Soul Arena. There are two closest to you: the Sylves Great Spirit Arena and the Suo Tuo Great Spirit Arena. Which do you think is more suitable?"

Meng Wanqing thought for a moment.

"Then let's go with the Suo Tuo Great Spirit Arena."

"Alright, we'll do as you say!"

Feng Xiaotian also wanted to visit the Suo Tuo Great Spirit Arena.

Judging by the current timeline, Tang San and the others from Shrek Academy should have already been there and set new records.

But records were meant to be broken.

Feng Xiaotian believed that, with the strength of their group, they could certainly break the records Shrek Academy had left behind.

Meng Wanqing frowned thoughtfully.

"I'd really like to witness your growth firsthand, but it wouldn't be convenient for me to go with you."

"Dean, there's no need to worry. I can have my grandfather take us there. It's not like he has anything better to do anyway."

"That would be best. With him watching over you, I'll feel more at ease."

"Mm!"

Feng Xiaotian scratched his head.

"Dean, I have one more question."

"Go ahead."

"If our three academies really make it to the Grand Finals, after merging, only one academy can serve as the main team."

"You don't need to say any more. I understand what you mean. There's nothing to consider. Among all of you, you're the strongest and the soul of the team. Naturally, Godwind Academy should be the main team."

"Thank you for understanding, Dean. The champion's reward is three Ten Thousand Year Soul Bones. If we're fortunate enough to win them, we'll give the most suitable one to a Skywater team member."

Meng Wanqing gave a sly smile.

"The competition hasn't even started yet, and you're already thinking that far ahead? In recent years, the champion of the Soul Master Tournament has always been Spirit Hall. The Soul Bones don't matter that much. The main thing is to knock some of Spirit Hall's arrogance down a peg! So you need to work hard! If you really make it that far, you must give it everything you have and let them know how formidable our Three Elements Academy is!"

Feng Xiaotian clenched his fists.

"Don't worry. We'll definitely work hard!"

"Then when are you planning to go to Suotuo City?"

"Huo Wu, Huo Wushuang, and I will head back first. Once we've taken care of our affairs, we'll come back with my grandfather."

"Alright, then it's settled. Come on, let's go find them."

"Mm."

In his previous life, Feng Xiaotian had already died once.

The feeling of failure was terrible!

For the first true battle since his rebirth, he did not want to fail.

This time, he had to crush Shrek Academy and the Spirit Hall Team beneath his feet and claim the overall championship.

Meng Wanqing took Feng Xiaotian to find Huo Wu and Huo Wushuang, who were touring the academy.

Huo Wushuang was walking with several girls, becoming the center of attention at the academy.

The girls all looked at him curiously.

It was the first time he had been watched by so many girls. Huo Wushuang was at a loss, his face flushed red with embarrassment.

When he saw Feng Xiaotian arrive, he hurried over.

"Brother Tian, why did you take so long? You came at just the right time!"

"Look at how hopeless you are! So many beauties are looking at you, and you're already flustered? They're beauties, not demons. It's not like they're going to eat you."

"Brother Tian, stop joking around."

The girls were all very happy to see Feng Xiaotian again.

But Feng Xiaotian was leaving right away.

"Dean Meng, we'll head back first. See you again in a few days."

"Mm."

"Goodbye!"

"Goodbye."

Feng Xiaotian, Huo Wushuang, and Huo Wu said goodbye to the girls one by one before heading toward the academy gates.

As they watched the three leave, the girls whispered among themselves.

"That girl named Huo Wu looks rather carefree, but she seems like a decent person."

"Her brother is more amusing. He acts as if he's never interacted with girls before."

"Feng Xiaotian is handsome and strong. We didn't even get the chance to know him before he left."

Meng Wanqing suddenly said, "Bing'er, Yue'er, Xiao Xue, the three of you come with me. I have something to discuss with you."

Feng Xiaotian walked ahead.

Huo Wu asked, "How did it go? Did you reach an agreement with Dean Meng?"

"Mm, everything's settled. Shui Bing'er, Xue Wu, and Shui Yue'er will form a new team with us."

Hearing this, Huo Wushuang became extremely excited.

Huo Wu suddenly stopped and kicked her brother in the butt.

"Huo Wu, why did you kick me? Weren't things fine just now? Don't take your anger out on me just because you lost the match."

"Hmph! You're still talking? Look how excited you are. Tell me, which one of them do you like? The blue-haired one or the black-haired one?"

Huo Wushuang gave an awkward laugh and stammered, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

"Don't think I don't know. You held back during the match and deliberately went easy on those two. If Feng Xiaotian hadn't stepped in to stop it in time, we would have lost even worse!"

Only then did Feng Xiaotian understand. No wonder Huo Wu could still smile after losing the match.

So she had been considering her brother's feelings, wanting to leave a good impression on the other side.

Feng Xiaotian teased, "Wushuang, who exactly do you like? You might as well say it. Huo Wu and I can both help you."

Huo Wushuang felt rather embarrassed, his face turning red all the way to his neck.

This was probably the first time in his twenty years that he had developed feelings for a girl—and it had been love at first sight.

"I like the black-haired one, Xue Wu."

"Alright! It really is her. Looks like my instincts were completely right!" Huo Wu said angrily.

The corners of Feng Xiaotian's lips rose as he let out a slight sigh of relief.

Huo Wu caught that unconscious gesture.

A woman's sixth sense was extremely sharp.

Huo Wu was practically furious enough to explode.

"Feng Xiaotian! What did that mean? Were you worried that the girl my brother likes was Shui Bing'er because you like her?"

Feng Xiaotian grinned, no longer bothering to hide it.

"Shui Bing'er is gentle and kind, calm and composed. Although she isn't stunningly beautiful, she has the kind of beauty that grows on you. Who wouldn't like a girl like that?"
