Yi-Ling Fan or Yi-Yue Fan?

The first time Xie Xie and Yun Xiao witnessed Tang Wuling's appetite was while the five of them were eating.

She swallowed a meat bun in three bites. And this was a meat bun from a Grade A Meal!

An ordinary first-year student would be full after two to four.

But Tang Wuling just couldn't stop. She finished a meat bun, took a sip of soup, and didn't leave the rice or dishes alone, eating with gusto.

Xie Xie asked quietly, "Brother Cheng, if Tang Wuling eats this much, won't she burst her stomach?"

Yun Xiao nodded solemnly. "Tang Wuling's already eaten several times as much as we have, and she's still going. Won't her body give out?"

In their eyes, this was well beyond the limits of a normal person.

Who in their right mind ate several times as much as they did in one meal?

Hadn't they noticed all the students staring?

"So this is the tough customer who ate an entire Grade A Meal yesterday? You told me about it yesterday, but I didn't believe you. Now I've seen it for myself."

"Why would I lie to you? She eats so much. I wonder if her body can handle it."

"Isn't she just a human vacuum? I..."

Some students hadn't even finished speaking when a glance from Cheng Duoyi made them all shut up.

"What's going on? I can't move after just one look!"

Those who had still wanted to whisper about Tang Wuling behind her back didn't dare say another word.

Gu Yue had obviously noticed what was happening. Smiling, she handed Tang Wuling a meat bun. "Ling'er's body is a little special. She has a big appetite, and she'll only eat more as time goes on."

The thoughtful care and concern made Gu Yue feel even more displeased.

This is supposed to be my treatment. Xiao Yi, I won't let anyone else steal you from me! Gu Yue swore to herself.

Tang Wuling clearly didn't care what people around her were saying. She had Cheng Duoyi to thank for helping her see things that way.

Eating ranked second in her heart, right alongside her parents.

When Cheng Duoyi offered her food,

Tang Wuling smiled and accepted it. "Thank you, Yi'er."

Then she polished it off in three bites, making Xie Xie and Yun Xiao's appetites surge.

Xie Xie was surprised. Was that still not her limit?

Haji Ling, you really could eat!

"Enough talk. Let's eat, let's eat. Watching you has made me hungry again."

After saying that, Xie Xie ate another bowl.

"I'm done. I'm full—I can't eat another bite. You guys go ahead." Xie Xie rubbed his stomach and added, "This is the fullest I've ever been in my life."

Yun Xiao also held his stomach, clearly having eaten quite a lot.

Cheng Duoyi had finished eating a while ago. He hadn't eaten much.

Perhaps it was because of the Dragon God's Wife. Her absorption of the life force in his body was a matter of life and death. On the bright side, it expanded his Spirit Sea and greatly reduced the energy his body consumed. Maybe it was a case of heaven closing one door while opening a window—there were benefits as well as drawbacks.

At the time, Cheng Duoyi had thought of how some people were born with a disability, such as impaired eyesight, but their hearing and other senses became much sharper. His situation was somewhat similar, except his deficiency was severe. Even with the nourishment of the Dragon God Heart, without Tang Wuling, Na'er, or Gu Yue, he couldn't have lived much longer.

Cheng Duoyi turned to look at Gu Yue and jumped in fright.

Gu Yue stared at him with a dark expression, saying nothing.

Anyone who didn't know better would have thought Gu Yue was about to eat him alive.

"Sister Yue'er, what's wrong? You look upset. Who made you angry?" Cheng Duoyi asked.

Gu Yue's expression instantly brightened. Even Xie Xie was speechless.

You'd make the best actor in the business!

Gu Yue's thoughts: Xiao Yi called me Sister Yue'er. I'm so happy! ^_^ He must have feelings for me.

"I'm fine," Gu Yue said with a smile.

Cheng Duoyi smiled. "That's good. I noticed you haven't eaten much. Is the food not to your taste?"

Gu Yue's heart skipped a beat. Xiao Yi was paying attention to me! He really loves me. I'm so happy.

A little bashfully, Gu Yue said, "It's not that. It's just..."

She couldn't be like Tang Wuling or Na'er. As the main body of the Silver Dragon King and the incarnation of the Dragon God's wisdom, she had a strong sense of shame. She would be terribly embarrassed to ask Cheng Duoyi to feed her, too.

Gu Yue often wondered: It's perfectly normal for me to ask my husband to feed me, isn't it...

Xie Xie saw what was going on. "Brother Cheng, Gu Yue wants you to feed her just like you feed Tang Wuling. As your and Tang Wuling's loyal fan, I can't stand this kind of behavior. I'm a Yi-Ling Fan! You can't feed her. If you're going to feed anyone, feed Tang Wuling."

Tang Wuling looked at Xie Xie in surprise. Hearing his words, she glanced shyly at Cheng Duoyi.

Gu Yue was furious. She shot Xie Xie a look, and he immediately looked up at the sky as if something up there had caught his attention.

Yun Xiao was even more on edge. He wanted to tell Xie Xie, You're seriously gutsy! You'll say anything, and you're not even worried she'll teach you a lesson?

Yun Xiao knew his place. He just kept eating and didn't say a word.

"If you want me to feed you, just say so. Ah, open wide."

Cheng Duoyi spoke gently, like someone feeding a kitten, his eyes full of tenderness. Tang Wuling immediately deflated. For a moment, even the delicious food didn't seem so delicious anymore.

Gu Yue's heart raced uncontrollably.

Is this what love feels like?

Gu Yue took a bite, and all her earlier displeasure vanished.

Now there was only one thought in her mind: Xiao Yi loves me so much!

Tang Wuling thought, The winner hasn't been decided yet!

The old Tang Wuling might have been a little timid, but now she was a Level 3 blacksmith. She believed she could be a real help to Cheng Duoyi. Then, with the relationship they shared, wouldn't she have the advantage of being right beside him?

Everyone ate with their own schemes in mind, but in the end, the meal came to a satisfactory close.

"Ling'er, Sister Yue'er, Xie Xie, Yun Xiao, are you all done eating?" Cheng Duoyi asked.

Everyone nodded.

"Yi'er, I'm full."

"Brother Cheng, I'm full too."

"Brother Cheng, I'm full too."

"Xiao Yi, this is the most delicious food I've ever had."

Cheng Duoyi nodded, his voice taking on a seriousness it hadn't had before. "Good. Now that you're full, the days ahead are for working hard at your studies. Don't let the side down. My goal is to take all of you to Shrek Academy and show you the sights from the summit of the world. If anyone falls behind and can't keep up, don't blame me for showing no mercy."

Tang Wuling was the first to speak. "Yi'er, I'll work hard!"

Gu Yue nodded. "Don't worry, Xiao Yi. I'll be there to back you up."

Xie Xie glanced at Gu Yue, then looked at Cheng Duoyi. "Don't worry, Brother Cheng. I'll work my hardest to keep up with you. As for certain people who love to talk nonsense, you should keep a close eye on them."

"You!"

Gu Yue didn't understand why Xie Xie kept targeting her. And now he was going on about being a Yi-Ling Fan—how disgusting!

Yun Xiao hurriedly said, "Brother Cheng, I know what my talent is. I might not be able to keep up with you, but I'll work hard!"

If Xie Xie had just been making polite talk when he said he'd keep up with Cheng Duoyi, Yun Xiao meant it from the heart.

He had seen how powerful Cheng Duoyi was and understood just how difficult it would be to keep pace with him!

There was practically no one in this world who could keep up with him!

"Good. You're all confident, and I'm confident I can lead you in making a push for Shrek Academy. Of course, we couldn't do it without Teacher Wu and Sister Xue'er leading us..."

Cheng Duoyi hadn't deliberately lowered his voice. Everyone around them thought he was bragging, but he didn't care. He didn't take their whispers to heart, either.
