Genius Girl, Shui Bing'er!

Night gradually fell.

In a room at the Heaven Dou Grand Hotel, Ji Bai had asked around and found where Huo Wu and the others were staying.

"Xiaobai, where did you go?"

"Why did you take so long?"

Huo Wu hurried over and asked softly.

At that moment, she was nothing like her usual fiery self around others. She even seemed somewhat gentle.

Her attitude left everyone else stunned.

"Girls in love really are unpredictable."

Huo Wushuang shook his head and sighed.

The others all chimed in.

Huo Wu turned and glared at them, not even sparing Huo Lin, the team leader, who was enjoying the show.

Ji Bai smiled. "I went to take care of something with Dugu Bo. We can get started now."

Huo Lin nodded slightly. "In that case, let's set out now."

The group headed together to the Heaven Dou Great Soul Fighting Arena.

They competed under the name Blazing Team.

However, because of Ji Bai, Huo Wu, and Huo Wushuang, the team took part in Soul Ancestor-level team battles. The few members whose strength was only at the Soul Elder realm felt enormous pressure.

However...

Ji Bai now possessed forty-sixth-level Soul Power. The quality of his Fire Phoenix Martial Soul already surpassed every beast-type Martial Soul seen on the continent thus far.

A single blaze was enough to destroy anyone below the Soul Sage realm.

He did not even need to activate the three External Soul Bones: Immortal Bird Eye, Undying Divine Wings, and Phoenix Heart.

Ten days later.

Skywater City.

The group arrived at the entrance of Skywater Academy.

Facing the two Skywater Academy students on duty, Huo Lin maintained a very courteous attitude and said with a warm smile, "Hello. Please inform your dean that Huo Lin, Director of the External Affairs Department of Blazing Academy, has come to pay a visit with Ji Bai, Huo Wu, Huo Wushuang, and the other students."

"Please wait a moment."

Ji Bai and the others were not wearing their school uniforms, so the two girls did not dare trust them easily. One went to report their arrival, while the other led Ji Bai and the group into a lounge to wait.

Huo Wu noticed Huo Wushuang and the others staring at the beauties on the street outside and rolled her eyes speechlessly.

She then noticed Ji Bai staring blankly into space. Without even thinking, she knew why he was distracted.

After pondering it, she gave a teasing smile, quietly leaned close to Ji Bai's ear, and softly asked, "Xiaobai, who do you think is prettier, me or Shui Bing'er?"

Ji Bai answered without hesitation, "You're both beautiful, and your figure is better. But Senior Bing'er's personality is very gentle, and she speaks so softly. I like that more. Still, your legs are longer and fairer, and I like that too."

He kept rambling on.

Huo Wushuang and the others were already dumbfounded.

Huo Wu was even more at a loss for words.

She finally understood it now. Ji Bai liked Shui Bing'er's personality, but he liked her body.

If she could merge with Shui Bing'er, Ji Bai would definitely like the person they became. What would that person be called then? Huo Shui Wu Bing? Or Shui Huo Bing Wu?

Huo Wushuang swallowed and leaned close to Ji Bai's ear. "Xiaobai! Aren't you afraid my sister will get angry?"

Ji Bai paused and looked up at Huo Wu.

Huo Wu curled her lips. "What's there to be angry about? At least he told the truth, and I'm happy with it. What does it have to do with you? If you have so much free time, why not mind your own business?"

Huo Wushuang was instantly speechless.

So... in the end, he, the older brother, was the clown!

People really did lose their minds when they fell in love. They stopped caring about everything else!

Huo Wushuang shook his head and sighed.

Huo Lin said at that moment, "Xiaobai, Xiao Wu, Wushuang, why don't you three wait here? The others can take the day off and relax around Skywater City."

The others were overjoyed.

Huo Wushuang looked miserable. "Why do I have to wait here? What I understand even less is why a fair-faced pretty boy like Xiaobai is so popular, while a more muscular, manly man like me gets no attention at all?"

"Want to test that? Let's arm wrestle!" Ji Bai protested indignantly. Why did he have to be called a pretty boy?

Huo Lin said helplessly, "If you don't want to stay, you can go with them."

Huo Wushuang muttered, "I didn't want to stay anyway... Those girls have no taste."

After everyone had left, Huo Lin smiled as well. "I'll go out for a walk too, have a look around, and buy some local specialties. You two can wait here."

Ji Bai and Huo Wu nodded slightly.

After Huo Lin left.

Huo Wu glanced at Ji Bai and muttered, "How did I end up liking a shameless flirt like you..."

Ji Bai smiled faintly and silently met Huo Wu's gaze.

Huo Wu finally admitted defeat. With a soft sigh, she gently rested her little face against Ji Bai's shoulder.

Not long after.

Seven beautiful girls approached them, all dressed in matching light-blue school uniforms.

The girl at the front had long aqua-blue hair, snow-white skin, and clear, cool ice-blue eyes. Her delicate features were soft and refined, her figure slender and graceful, and she possessed an aloof, otherworldly beauty.

She was Shui Bing'er.

The girl to her left had long black hair, fair skin, and a slim, gentle figure. Her temperament was mild yet lively, with elegant brows and eyes. She was a soft, graceful beauty whose gentleness contrasted with Shui Bing'er's cold allure, and standing beside Shui Bing'er, their temperaments complemented each other perfectly.

She was Xue Wu, who could perform a Martial Soul Fusion Skill together with Shui Bing'er!

To Shui Bing'er's right stood Shui Yue'er.

Her features somewhat resembled Shui Bing'er's, but her face was younger and more delicate. She had a petite, dainty figure, lively and mischievous eyes, and an air brimming with vitality.

The other four each had their own distinct traits, but they shared one common quality: beauty.

"Xiaobai, Huo Wu, long time no see."

A sweet smile like a spring breeze appeared on Shui Bing'er's lovely face, though most of her gaze remained fixed on Ji Bai.

Huo Wu gave a soft "Mm" in response.

They had once gotten along fairly well, but ever since Ji Bai came between them, their relationship had grown more distant. At times, they were even at each other's throats, though Shui Bing'er could always easily defuse the conflict.

"Senior Bing'er, when you came looking for me last time, I was busy outside and couldn't meet you. This time, I came to find you." Ji Bai spoke with a smile.

Shui Bing'er smiled. "Why worry so much over something so minor? But since you've come, I should do the honors as your host. I can't bring you into the academy, but I can show you around the city."

Shui Yue'er affectionately sidled up to Ji Bai and smiled. "Little Bai-Bai, will you go shopping with your big sister?"

Huo Wu said flatly, "Shui Yue'er, since when did you become such a lovesick fool?"

Shui Yue'er smiled shyly. "Sister Huo Wu, I'm not like this with every boy! Ever since I met Xiaobai, I can't work up any interest in other boys at all!"

Huo Wu rolled her eyes. "You just need a boyfriend. Hurry up and find one, and all your problems will be solved."

Shui Yue'er looked at Ji Bai with a beaming smile. "Little Bai-Bai, how about becoming my boyfriend?"

Ji Bai coughed lightly. "Senior Yue'er, don't call me that. It feels weird."
