"so what?"
Seeing that Youai fell silent when he heard that his reproductive ability was top-notch, Shatian felt very superior. As expected, Leah still liked him.
He said, "Leave him and be with me. I can give you better happiness."
"No need." You Ai turned and left.
Sha Tian swam over and blocked her way again, "Why!"
Because you are not the partner chosen by the system! But You Ai couldn't say that. She looked at Sha Tian and said, "Because I like him. I liked him the moment I saw him. I only want him to be my partner in this life. I don't want anyone else."
"Is his reproductive ability also excellent?" Sha Tian said through gritted teeth.
Seeing that You Ai didn't say anything, Sha Tian took it as a tacit agreement that she was not superior and suddenly grabbed her arm, "Liya, you have changed. You said that you only wanted a male with superior reproductive ability as a partner. Why do you not want me now that I am superior!"
The strong grip made You Ai's arm hurt unbearably. She wanted to break free but couldn't move at all, and was forced to cry.
[Cheche, it hurts so much, what can I do? ]
[You are now a Level 2 ability user, and can use your spiritual power to repel him.]
Oh yes, she is a second-level ability user. She endured the pain and controlled her spiritual power to stab Sha Tian who was holding her arm. Sha Tian let go due to the pain.
Yu Ai immediately backed away, swishing his tail and putting some distance between them.
"Are you crazy?" You Ai shouted at Sha Tian, "Even if your reproductive ability is excellent, I have the right not to be your partner." In the mermaid race, females have more ruling power than males, and the mermaid race here all has females as queens.
Shatian looked at the remaining spiritual power on his arm and said in disbelief: "You actually became a level 2 ability user."
The reason why the Sayinde mermaid race lives in remote ocean areas is because their spiritual power is very low. They may not be able to reach level five even after practicing for a lifetime, and most of them only linger at level one or two.
Sha Tian was already one of the few people with strong abilities, and he had cultivated to the second level before he became an adult, but he did not expect that Leah, who had no spiritual power for a long time, could actually reach the second level.
Not to mention that the mermaid race respects females, just because Youai is a level two ability user, it doesn't matter if she walks around the tribe arrogantly, let alone reject a suitor.
Shatian looked at her with resentment in his eyes, "Are you going to participate in the ability selection competition?"
The ability selection competition is for selecting guards and leaders for the tribe. Anyone with spiritual power can participate, and it also allows people with abilities to learn from each other and improve.
But Youai didn't want to be a leader or a guard, so she didn't say anything. Shatian didn't say anything else either. When he turned around to leave, Youai called him.
"Hey! My name is not Leah, my name is Youai." Shatian paused for a moment, without turning around, and finally swam away flapping his tail.
Because of the mermaids’ marriage system, the wedding ceremony is very grand.
The female hairpins are decorated with various flowers and grasses, and the clothes are made of various seaweeds, corals and shells. Necklaces, bracelets, and even the tails are decorated with great care.
The males are dressed similarly, but they usually only wear a piece of coral diagonally on their heads as an ornament, and then stand under the wreath door waiting for their mates.
Youai let Moumi dress her up. Moumi's little daughter Wensha was hanging shells on her tail. Moumi held her hand and looked left and right, feeling very pleased.
When the conch horn sounded, she patted You Ai's hand, took her to Mai Fei, and solemnly handed her hand to him.
There were several couples at the ceremony, including Sha Tian, but he kept his eyes fixed on them, unwilling to look in their direction. Most of the other eyes were on Mai Fei, so Yu Ai, who was walking with him, also attracted much attention.
While the host was speaking, Youai tilted his tail slightly to the left, leaned his body slightly to the right, and said to Mai Fei, "Everyone is looking at you."
Mai Fei took a quick glance and saw the males looking at You Ai, and he wanted to beat up all the mermaids.
The host finally finished speaking, and the audience burst into applause. He raised his hand to suppress it, "Now, please swear an oath to your partner."
All the males stepped forward, turned, and looked at their mates, and both spoke at once.
"I swear that no matter good times or bad, rich or poor, healthy or sick, happy or sad, I will always love you, cherish you, and be faithful to you, forever and ever."
After the oath was finished, there was another round of applause from the audience. You Ai was smiling, and Mai Fei raised his hand and put something on her.
"What is this?" You Ai asked, looking at a small snail shell on his chest.
McPhee said: "This is a type of screw that is unique to Tuscany. The threads are usually right-handed, and there is only a one in a million chance of encountering a left-handed one. And this one is left-handed."
You Ai had to admit that she was moved by Mai Fei at the moment, but what moved her even more was the system.
[Obtain a left-handed Tuscan snail and receive 1000 points.]
She was cheered up and thought about asking Mai Fei and the others if they had any other rare treasures. Suddenly, the sound of a conch shell was heard, and the host warned everyone that a monster was attacking and they should hide quickly.
Mai Fei wanted to kill the monster, but Yu Ai pulled her to swim towards the cave. She couldn't let her newly obtained partner be lost, and then she connected to the system.
[Cheche, cheche, what kind of monster is coming? ]
【Level 2 Tiger Shark.】
[I'm also level 2 now, do I have a chance of winning? ]
[You can stack skills and use them alone, no problem at all.]
Hiding in the cave, You Ai had already opened the store to buy skills, when he saw that what rushed into the square was not just a tiger shark, but a group of them.
What happened to the one-on-one fight?! Regardless, Yu Ai started by selecting a skill. There was a dazzling array of skills, but it was expensive. Even the most basic skill, the Pause, was charged by level: 100 points for level one, 200 points for level two, and so on. It could only be used once, for a three-second pause.
After gritting his teeth, You Ai exchanged it three times. After all, fighting was risky, and if things didn't work out, it would still leave some time for him to escape.
[You have redeemed the Level 2 Pause skill 3 times, and 600 points have been deducted. The remaining points are 2410.]
Looking at the balance of points given by Che Che, You Ai felt heartbroken, but her hand was held. She looked up and saw that it was Mai Fei.
Mai Fei's pair of beautiful blue and green eyes were looking at her at the moment. "It's okay, wait for me here."
As he said that, he flicked his tail and rushed out. A fight had already started outside. Guards rushed over and all the people with special abilities joined in, including Shatian.
But there were a lot of tiger sharks, and some of them still escaped and attacked the hiding place here, violently crashing into the cave next to it.
Sha Tian's partner, Brinbeh, is a first-level ability user. She knows that her ability cannot resist, but if the tiger shark hits the cave twice more, the cave will collapse, so she dodged and fought.
A first-level ability user has absolutely no chance of winning against a second-level tiger shark. The spiritual power hitting the tiger shark is like a tickle, making the tiger shark angry.
Upon seeing this, Sha Tian immediately came to support, but he was only a level two ability user, and could only tie with the level two tiger shark. This was the result of his extraordinary talent. He wanted to escape, but the tiger shark didn't give him any chance and bit him with its bloody mouth.
Yuai hurriedly used the pause skill, flicked his tail and quickly pulled Brinbeh back into the cave and handed him over to others.
