Huo Wu's smile faded, and she asked softly, "Xiao Bai, this time you're leaving... will you still come back?"
Ji Bai prepared to leave the Blazing Academy, and she tried her utmost to make him stay, which led to this very battle.
What a pity... she lost.
Huo Wushuang suddenly made a move to pull Ji Bai over, smiled craftily, and said:
"Xiao Bai, don't you understand my sister's intentions yet? As long as you stay, and then hold her in your arms, you can immediately get an otherworldly beautiful girlfriend!"
Ji Bai looked back and glanced at Huo Wu, and at this moment Huo Wu was also looking over at their side.
Ji Bai withdrew his gaze, and said in a low voice, "Senior Sister Huo Wu is indeed drop-dead gorgeous, her figure is also very good, and I like her very much too, but I like Senior Sister Bing'er even more."
"Very good! You brat!" Huo Wushuang widened his eyes in shock, and said with utter disbelief, "You actually want to ride two boats at once! Aren't you afraid of dying?!"
"Why are you shouting so loud? You were heard by Senior Sister Huo Wu!" Ji Bai rolled his eyes, looked back, and saw that Huo Wu was staring right at him.
He returned a smile, pushed Huo Wushuang away, and only then said, "Senior Sister, I will still come back. I'm still thinking of leading the Blazing Academy to win the championship of the next Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament."
"Go on, go on! Who fancies you!" Huo Wu suddenly erupted, turned around, and left.
"You're in a miserable state now!"
Huo Wushuang pointed at Ji Bai, and said with a tone of disappointment that he failed to meet expectations, "My sister has been able to get whatever she wanted since she was a child, and no one has ever refused, except you!"
"Now you even compare her to Shui Bing'er, and she must be extremely angry right now. I can't help you anymore, think of a way to coax her yourself!"
Saying the last words, he spread his hands helplessly.
Hearing this, Ji Bai patted Huo Wushuang's shoulder, suddenly unleashed Phoenix Possession, and spread his wings to soar into the air.
"Screech--"
A resonant phoenix cry resounded through this area, and Huo Wu, who hadn't walked far yet, heard this phoenix cry, looked back, but only saw a phoenix flying toward the edge of the sky.
She bit her red lips lightly, her eyes filled with unwillingness.
Ji Bai insisted on traveling by flying, and after three days finally rushed to Suotuo City. Although this way of traveling consumed a lot of Soul Power, the strength of his thirty-seventh-rank Soul Power was enough to support such behavior of his.
On the path through the fields heading toward Shrek Academy, Ji Bai walked leisurely, dressed in red-gold fitted garments that made his posture appear even more tall and straight, his slightly long red hair fluttering in the wind, and a pair of red eyes glowing with spirit in the sunlight.
Right at this moment.
A black-haired youth stopped him, and asked, "This friend, may I ask how to get to Shrek Academy?"
Ji Bai turned his gaze sideways to look over, and the black-haired youth before him had ordinary looks, wore blue fitted garments, had deep eyes, and wore a kindly smile on his face.
Beside the youth there was also a young girl.
The girl wore pink clothes on her upper body, wrapping her budding figure, her slender waist was so thin it could be grasped with one hand, a pair of long legs were well-proportioned and shapely, a trace of childishness lingered between her brows, and that silky pitch-black long hair was braided into a neat scorpion braid, with the braid hanging down to her calves.
The moment he turned around to look, the girl's eyes lit up noticeably.
Ji Bai put away his observing gaze, and had already roughly guessed the identities of the two people in front of him in his heart, and said with a smile, "I am also going to Shrek Academy, you can come with me."
A trace of joy appeared in the eyes of both upon hearing this.
Ji Bai walked straight ahead, the two followed closely behind, and the girl suddenly asked, "Are you a student of Shrek Academy?"
Ji Bai's memories were pulled back to five years ago, and he answered softly, "I used to be."
"Oh~ I understand, you have already graduated, haven't you?" The girl said with a confident look.
Ji Bai chuckled lightly and said, "No, I didn't graduate from Shrek Academy. I once dropped out midway due to some reasons, and this time I just want to come back and take a look."
"My name is Ji Bai."
Hearing this.
The girl and the youth introduced themselves one after the other.
"My name is Xiao Wu."
"Tang San."
Ji Bai nodded slightly, took the initiative to start the conversation, and asked, "You are going to Shrek Academy to register, aren't you?"
Xiao Wu nodded repeatedly: "That's right, we just graduated from the junior soul master academy, and the academy teachers told us to come here and find a soul master academy named Shrek."
"I heard that it's a monster academy, and only recruits monsters, but... the location of this academy is a bit too remote after all. Ji Bai, you used to be a student of Shrek Academy, can you tell us about the situation there?"
Ji Bai explained with a calm expression: "Shrek Academy's enrollment criteria are under thirteen years old, above the twenty-first rank of Soul Power, and the soul rings must be two yellow ones."
"When I left back then, the academy's dean and vice-dean were already Soul Sages, and the rest of the teachers were also at the Soul King and Soul Emperor levels, but the only aspect worth praising is probably just this."
"Oh?"
Tang San furrowed his brows slightly, looking thoughtful.
"As for why it's so remote, it's also because the academy doesn't have much funds."
"As for the specific situation, after you join Shrek Academy, you will naturally understand."
"It's right up ahead."
Shrek Academy's plaque had already appeared in Ji Bai's line of sight, and his eyesight far exceeded ordinary people's, allowing him to see it clearly even from over a hundred meters away.
"Ahead?" Xiao Wu placed her hands on her brows, looked forward, and her face was filled with bewilderment: "There's no academy ahead? There are quite a few people instead, looking like they are waiting in line. Are they collecting eggs?"
Ji Bai smiled lightly and said, "Little Sister really knows how to joke, those people are all queuing up to register, and Shrek Academy is built inside that village."
Hearing the title "Little Sister", Xiao Wu smiled shyly, but upon hearing that subsequent sentence, she couldn't help but freeze: "Shrek Academy is right inside that village?"
Tang San was also startled.
Ji Bai looked back and glanced at the two of them, pretending not to know their situation, and said with a smile:
"Seeing that neither of you has any intention of leaving, it seems you meet the enrollment criteria. Not simple at all."
Tang San smiled faintly, without saying much, and looked very modest.
Xiao Wu smiled triumphantly: "It's alright! Little San and I are already at the twenty-ninth rank now, and we are both not yet thirteen years old either. Both soul rings are also yellow ones, far exceeding Shrek Academy's enrollment standards!"
Ji Bai smiled faintly: "Remarkable."
The two followed Ji Bai and quickly arrived in front of the gates of Shrek Academy. Li Yusong, who was in charge of registration, glanced at the three of them, waved his hand, and said, "Queue up at the back."
Ji Bai smiled and said, "Teacher Li, do you not recognize me anymore? I am Ji Bai!"
"Ji Bai?"
Li Yusong was stunned, slowly stood up, stared at Ji Bai and observed him carefully, only asking with a shocked expression after a long while: "You're Xiao Bai?"
Ji Bai nodded slightly and smiled, saying, "It's me, long time no see."
"It really has been a long time, five years right?" Li Yusong sighed with emotion, then asked, "Where have you been these past five years? You look like you've been doing pretty well!"
