"I meant spending time together."

"Don't overthink it."

A trace of unnaturalness flashed across Gu Yue's face, and for a moment even her tone grew hurried.

"Why is that little head of yours always thinking nonsense..."

"Oh, then all right."

Tang Luochuan looked at the way she was now, his face full of unconcealable amusement as he said with a chuckle.

"Mm..."

"Actually, you don't need to go out of your way to explain like that."

Was there a possibility that the more Gu Yue explained in such a panic, the stranger it seemed?

"I was just afraid you'd overthink it..."

"All right, Gu Yue, you tell me."

"Where are we going now?"

Tang Luochuan did not continue the topic. He blinked and asked. Since she had called him over, then she must have already made plans for what they were going to do next, right?

He believed that as the Silver Dragon King, she couldn't possibly be that unreliable.

"Out..."

"Let's just walk around together."

Hearing this, Gu Yue also fell silent for a moment. Earlier, she had only been thinking about snatching him away from those people. As for where exactly to go, she really hadn't had time to think about it.

But since it was rare to have time alone with him like this, going out for a walk wasn't bad either.

"I imagine you probably haven't really strolled around Eastsea City much either, right?"

Gu Yue smiled faintly and said softly.

He had lived in Aolai City before, and Na'er had accompanied him all over that place, but in Eastsea City...

Clearly, it was her turn to make an appearance.

"Mm, okay."

"Then let's go."

Tang Luochuan did not refuse and nodded with a smile.

Only when night fell did the two of them return to the campus. After waving goodbye, they each returned to their own dormitories.

"Boss, you're back."

Inside Dorm 123, a group of people were huddled together. Seeing who had come in, Zhang Yangzi immediately said with a smile.

"Mm."

"What are you guys doing, so serious?"

Looking at everyone as if they were discussing something, Tang Luochuan asked curiously. What were they doing?

"Boss, we're studying the higher-grade students."

"After all, the Class Promotion Tournament isn't actually just a competition among us new students. There's no one stronger than us in the whole first grade, so of course we have to focus our attention on the higher grades..."

Zhang Yangzi was the first to speak.

"That's right, boss."

Wang Jinxi and Wei Xiaofeng exchanged a glance and said the same.

The Class Promotion Tournament started with the weakest class challenging upward, just like fighting from Class Five all the way to Class One. But now, in the first grade, they already had no opponents.

And the ones they had to face were undoubtedly the second grade, third grade, fourth grade, and even... fifth grade.

"Our goal is the third grade or fourth grade, and we'll fight for a shot at the fifth grade."

Zhang Yangzi's eyes shone as he said it.

With their side's combat strength, even facing higher grades was no problem at all. Even in the fifth grade, there were only two Soul Elders in the entire grade.

At most, four people from one class could go into battle, and on their side, the boss and Gu Yue alone had cultivation close to that of Soul Elders. Add in his and Jinxi's Martial Soul Fusion Skill...

Before the fifth grade, they would undoubtedly sweep through everything like a hot knife through butter.

"This challenge tournament..."

"Really isn't difficult."

Hearing this, Tang Luochuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment and had nothing to say. Challenge tournaments and all sorts of competitions really were the old tradition of this "Competition Continent."

But Zhang Yangzi really wasn't wrong. With their side's combat strength, they stood at the very top level in all of Eastsea Academy. They really could cut through the higher grades from the first grade upward.

But the academy definitely wouldn't agree to that kind of situation appearing. This was also why Class Zero appeared in the Original Work. The others, in front of them, truly weren't quite enough to look at.

"You guys think it over properly, but don't delay your own cultivation because of the challenge tournament. That is the real top priority."

Tang Luochuan looked at the two people in front of him and said bluntly.

"Don't worry, boss, we definitely won't."

"But..."

Zhang Yangzi first nodded. The next moment, he also looked toward him with a smile on his face, making Tang Luochuan feel a little at a loss.

"What is it?"

Tang Luochuan could not help asking subconsciously.

"Boss, you and Sister Gu Yue went out..."

"How did it go?"

Zhang Yangzi wore a gossiping expression. According to his understanding and inference, the boss's trip out earlier could count as going on a date with Sister Gu Yue, right?

Two Nine Years Old Level 28 geniuses...

They really were a perfect match!

Hearing Zhang Yangzi's words, Wang Jinxi and Wei Xiaofeng also turned their gazes over. There was nothing else in their eyes, only a full desire to eat some gossip.

"Nothing happened."

"We just went out for a walk."

Hearing this, Tang Luochuan smiled and shook his head.

Kids these days matured early. It was one thing for that Little Silver Dragon King, Gu Yue, to be like this, but even actual Nine Years Old children were the same.

They didn't even think about what nine-year-olds could do when they went out.

As for that kind of impossible situation, the Dragon Country of his previous life had possessed a complete set of...

"You went out for a walk, and nothing happened?"

"Hehe, we almost believed that."

The three of them smiled mysteriously, revealing slightly sleazy little expressions as they teased him.

The boss's gossip...

It really was delicious!

Unfortunately, that kid Tang Wulin wasn't in the same dormitory as them. Otherwise, everyone could eat gossip together right now.

And over in Dorm 105.

"Xie Xie, are you cultivating right now? Can you chat with me?"

"I'm really curious about something."

Tang Wulin wore a thoughtful expression as he looked toward Xie Xie's bed and said softly.

"..."

Xie Xie lay on his bed and remained silent. He even quietly turned over. Today, he would not pay attention to this guy.

As for the reason...

His face still hadn't gone down in swelling even now!

"Xie Xie."

"Tell me, that girl called Gu Yue, does she really like my brother? The two of them..."

"What exactly is going on?"

A glow appeared in Tang Wulin's large eyes, and he could not help feeling a tiny bit of anticipation.

He actually had never had the habit of eating gossip, but when it was his brother's, that was clearly different...

This gossip, he really wanted to eat it!

And before returning to the dormitory, he had already discussed this issue thoroughly with Zhang Yangzi and the others. The conclusion they finally reached was—

He was going to have a sister-in-law.

"..."

Xie Xie hesitated. He actually didn't really want to talk to him, but if they were talking about this matter concerning the boss...

"I think."

"The two of them can't be called made by heaven and arranged by earth. They can only be called a match made in heaven."

"That's the situation."

In the end, Xie Xie still couldn't hold back. With a serious expression, he said bluntly.

No one disliked eating gossip, let alone gossip like this that could be eaten from the front line.

"Then..."

"Will she be my sister-in-law?"

Tang Wulin asked expectantly.

"I think..."

"She will be."

"Brother, will Sister Gu Yue be my sister-in-law?"

"Huh?"

That night, looking at this little boy who wasn't sleeping in the middle of the night, boldly speaking with anticipation on his face, Tang Luochuan looked surprised.

This kind of topic...

Could it really have been asked by this well-behaved little brother of his?

Are you really my brother Tang Wulin?
