Silver Moon Queen

"The final exams are approaching. The Sea God Pavilion will personally make the final decision regarding your assessments!"

Yun Ming announced this piece of news before adding, "That is all for today. You may go and rest."

Once they had left, Ya Li frowned and said to Yun Ming, "Yun, I can see that Tang Wulin has deep feelings for Gu Yue. Are we really going to push him and Yun Qianyue together? I worry that doing so will only break her heart."

Yun Ming pondered for a moment before shaking his head. "Do not worry! We are merely creating opportunities for them to spend time together; what becomes of it is beyond our control. Tang Wulin's talent is extraordinary; he is not unworthy of Yun Qianyue."

"I am still worried about her. What if Yun Qianyue falls for Tang Wulin, but he still favors Gu Yue?"

Ya Li frowned, looking every bit like a mother worried that her daughter might choose the wrong person.

To this, Yun Ming reassured her, "Actually, I don't think Tang Wulin cares for Gu Yue as much as you think. I could tell from his brief pause earlier—he is hesitant, he is wavering."

Ya Li glanced at him and sighed helplessly, "Are you not worried about Yun Qianyue at all?"

"Of course I keep her in my heart! We watched her grow up, after all," Yun Ming said, trying to soothe Ya Li.

The remaining elders also tried to comfort her; after all, it was Elder Jin, the absolute veteran of Shrek Academy, who had decreed that Tang Wulin and The Twins should be paired up.

They did not wish to force anyone, merely to create the opportunity.

In their eyes, excellent people would naturally be drawn to one another.

The Twins and Tang Wulin's group parted ways almost immediately after leaving the Sea God Pavilion.

Seeing The Twins heading in the other direction, Tang Wulin hurriedly called out, "Two Junior Masters! From now on, we are teammates! Why don't we find a place to discuss forging your Battle Armor?"

Hearing Tang Wulin's words, The Twins glanced back at him, swallowing the refusal that had been on the tip of their tongues.

After a long moment of contemplation, they nodded in agreement.

They did not agree because they truly approved of Tang Wulin, of course.

It was because they felt a prying gaze fixed upon them! The source of this gaze was the Golden Tree!

It was Elder Jin, the avatar of the Golden Tree, watching The Twins from the shadows.

It seemed their plan to break away needed to be put on the agenda!

The Twins remained calm, spending the entire journey thinking about their next move. By the time they regained their focus, they had already followed Tang Wulin to the Forging District.

Thanks to the relationship between Feng Wuyu and Mu Chen, the academy had reserved a specific forging table for Tang Wulin's exclusive use.

The six of them gathered around the table. Tang Wulin's gaze swept over them before landing on Na'er and Yun Qianyue. "Among us, the ones with the highest cultivation levels should be the two Junior Masters and Na'er, right?"

"I only just broke through to the four-ring level; I shouldn't be a match for the two of them," Na'er said, glancing at Yun Qianzhao and Yun Qianyue before shaking her head.

Tang Wulin nodded at her words and continued, "Then I will forge the Battle Armor component for Junior Master Yun Qianyue first! As it happens, I haven't used that piece of Spirit Forged Alloy from a while ago. It can serve as the material for the first component."

He took out the piece of Spirit Forged Alloy he had forged in front of The Twins.

Seeing Tang Wulin produce this alloy, Xie Xie and Xu Xiaoyan were both surprised. They clearly remembered that Tang Wulin had prepared this alloy for himself, yet now he was using it for Yun Qianyue?

"Boss, this..."

Xie Xie blinked, his words catching in his throat.

Yun Qianyue's gaze fell upon the alloy, and she gave a soft laugh. "Very well! Then forge it for me! I want the headpiece for my Battle Armor."

Forging Battle Armor was a serious matter. Even as a level-five blacksmith, Tang Wulin was not entirely confident at this moment. Although he was using Spirit Forged Alloy, which could be used to craft two-word Battle Armor, his own cultivation was only at the three-ring realm!

To forge two-word Battle Armor on his own would be nothing short of a pipe dream.

However, in front of Yun Qianyue, Tang Wulin did not say it was impossible; he felt an inexplicable urge to impress her.

In front of everyone, Tang Wulin began to forge the Spirit Forged Alloy.

As he swung his hammers, a faint golden dragon aura was released from his body. Feeling this pressure, Na'er's expression became slightly intoxicated and longing. She discovered that under this dragon aura, her Silver Dragon Spear seemed to become somewhat uncontrollable.

The Twins' eyes fell upon Na'er, their gazes deepening as they observed her expression.

When Na'er turned to look at them, The Twins had already looked away.

Battle Armor needed to be in perfect harmony with the soul master's own soul power and spiritual power to be wielded like an extension of one's own arm and to enhance the soul master's strength! Therefore, even though Tang Wulin was responsible for the bulk of the forging, Yun Qianyue still needed to infuse it with her own soul power and spiritual power.

Soon, a Spirit Forged grade headpiece for the Battle Armor was completed.

Tang Wulin's chest heaved, his face covered in sweat.

Forging a Spirit Forged grade Battle Armor component was extremely taxing for him! If not for the vastness of Yun Qianyue's power, he likely would have failed this time.

The Moonlight Crown, shaped like an ice crystal and resembling silver crystal, sat quietly on the forging table, its light soft with silver beads dangling from it.

Yun Qianyue activated her martial soul, and the vast Clear Radiance Silver Moon cast down a soft moonlight. A biting chill rushed forward; not to mention Xie Xie and Xu Xiaoyan, even Tang Wulin, who had activated his Golden Dragon King bloodline, felt the cold and shivered involuntarily.

The silver moonlight enveloped the ice crystal crown, performing a secondary tempering.

This was the first time Tang Wulin had seen how The Twins' martial soul performed secondary tempering on a forged object! It was also the first time The Twins had performed secondary tempering on a completed Battle Armor component!

Under the melting power of the vast Taiyin energy, the ice crystal crown was thoroughly stained with moonlight, becoming a Battle Armor component that Yun Qianyue could control at will.

As the moonlit ice crystal crown slowly pressed down onto her silver hair and rested upon her head, an indescribable sense of nobility instantly stunned everyone present! Even Xu Xiaoyan couldn't help but exclaim, "Junior Master Yun Qianyue, you are so beautiful!"

With the New Moon martial soul behind her, Yun Qianyue looked like a true Silver Moon Princess.

No, her gaze was that of a queen.

If she were any older, she would truly be a Silver Moon Queen.

Yun Qianyue put away the Ice Crystal Crown, looked at Tang Wulin, and nodded. "Thank you, Tang Wulin."

"You're welcome! We're partners!" Tang Wulin shook his head with a smile, the look of amazement in his eyes gradually fading.

Na'er looked at him, then at Yun Qianyue, and began to laugh, though it was unclear what she was thinking.

Soon, Tang Wulin proposed his plan: "I intend to finish the production of a full set of Battle Armor for Martial Aunt Qianyue before the start of the next semester!"

"A full set? Are they all Spirit Forging?" Yun Qianyue looked at Tang Wulin and asked.

Tang Wulin nodded. "Of course! Martial Aunt Qianyue deserves the best!"

Hearing this, the corners of Yun Qianzhao's mouth twitched.
