Silver Moon Queen

"Final exams are just around the corner. As for your final assessment, the Sea God Pavilion will make the decision personally!"

Yun Ming announced another piece of news, then continued, "That's all for today. You may go and rest."

After they left, Ya Li furrowed her brow and said to Yun Ming, "Brother Yun! I can tell Tang Wulin has deep feelings for Gu Yue. Are we really going to match him with Qian Yue? I'm worried this will break Qian Yue's heart."

Yun Ming pondered for a moment, then shook his head. "There's no need to worry! We're only creating opportunities for them to spend time together. What happens in the end isn't something we can control! Tang Wulin has exceptional talent; Qian Yue wouldn't be out of his league."

"I'm still worried about Qian Yue. What if she falls for Tang Wulin, but Tang Wulin still loves Gu Yue?"

Ya Li frowned, looking every bit like a mother worried that her daughter would fall for the wrong man.

Yun Ming reassured her. "Actually, I don't think Tang Wulin cares all that much about Gu Yue! I could tell from that brief pause just now. He was hesitating."

Ya Li shot him a glance and said helplessly, "You're not worried about Qian Yue at all?"

"Of course I care about Qian Yue! We watched her grow up." Yun Ming helplessly tried to reassure Ya Li.

The other elders were also trying to comfort her. After all, even Elder Jin, an absolute veteran of Shrek Academy, had spoken up and said Tang Wulin should be matched with one of the Twins.

They didn't want to force anyone, either. They were only creating opportunities!

In their eyes, exceptional people were naturally drawn to one another!

After leaving the Sea God Pavilion, the Twins and Tang Wulin's group split up almost immediately.

Seeing the Twins head in the opposite direction, Tang Wulin hurriedly called out, "You two, Aunts! We're teammates from now on! How about we find somewhere to talk about making Battle Armor?"

Hearing Tang Wulin, the Twins turned back and glanced at him. They had been about to refuse, but swallowed their words before they could say them.

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

They agreed, of course, not because they had truly accepted Tang Wulin.

Rather, they had sensed a gaze spying on them! It came from the Golden Tree!

Elder Jin, the Golden Tree's avatar, was secretly watching the Twins.

Looks like breaking away from the plan needs to go on the agenda!

The Twins remained composed as they considered what to do next. By the time they came back to their senses, they had followed Tang Wulin to the Forging District.

Thanks to Feng Wuyu and Mu Chen, the academy had specially reserved a forging platform there for Tang Wulin's exclusive use.

The six of them gathered around the forging platform. Tang Wulin's gaze swept across the group, then settled on Na'er and Yun Qianyue. "Among us, the two Aunts and Na'er should have the highest cultivation, right?"

"I've only just broken through to the fourth ring. I'm probably not as strong as either of them." Na'er glanced at Yun Qianzhao and Yun Qianyue, then shook her head.

Tang Wulin nodded and continued, "Then I'll make a Battle Armor component for Aunt Qian Yue first! I haven't used that piece of Spirit Forged Alloy from a while back yet. We can use it as the material for the first Battle Armor component."

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

Seeing him take it out, Xie Xie and Xu Xiaoyan both looked surprised. They clearly remembered that Tang Wulin had prepared the alloy for himself, but now he was using it for Yun Qianyue?

"Boss, this..."

Xie Xie blinked, trailing off.

Yun Qianyue gazed at the alloy and gave a soft laugh. "All right! Make it for me, then. I want a headpiece."

Making Battle Armor was a serious matter. Even Tang Wulin, a fifth-grade blacksmith, wasn't confident he could do it. The Spirit Forged Alloy he was using could be made directly into Two-Word Battle Armor, but his cultivation was only at the three-ring level!

For him to make Two-Word Battle Armor alone would be nothing short of a pipe dream.

Yet in front of Yun Qianyue, Tang Wulin didn't say he couldn't do it. He felt an inexplicable urge to show off.

With everyone watching, Tang Wulin began forging the Spirit Forged Alloy.

As he brought out his twin hammers and began to forge, a faint golden dragon's might emanated from him. Feeling it, Na'er looked a little entranced, as if longing for something. Beneath that dragon's might, even her Silver Dragon Spear seemed to be slipping out of her control.

The Twins turned their eyes to Na'er. Seeing her expression, their gazes deepened.

When Na'er turned to look, the Twins had already looked away.

Battle Armor had to perfectly harmonize with its Soul Master's Soul Power and spiritual power to move as freely as an extension of their body and enhance their strength. So although Tang Wulin was handling most of the forging, Yun Qianyue still had to infuse it with her own Soul Power and spiritual power.

Before long, a Spirit Forged headpiece was complete.

Tang Wulin's chest heaved as sweat poured down his face.

Forging a Spirit Forged Battle Armor component took a great deal out of him! If Yun Qianyue's power hadn't been so vast, he would probably have failed this time.

The moonlit crown, shaped like silvery crystal, rested quietly on the forging platform. Its light was gentle, and silver beads dangled from it.

Yun Qianyue activated her Martial Soul. The vast Clear Radiance Silver Moon scattered a soft glow, and a wave of biting cold swept over them. Xie Xie and Xu Xiaoyan weren't the only ones to feel it—even Tang Wulin, with the Golden Dragon King's bloodline activated, shivered involuntarily.

Silver moonlight enveloped the Ice Crystal Crown, tempering it a second time.

This was the first time Tang Wulin had seen the Twins use their Martial Soul to give a forged item a second tempering! It was also the first time the Twins had tempered a fully formed Battle Armor component a second time!

Under the vast power of Taiyin, the Ice Crystal Crown was completely imbued with moonlight and became a Battle Armor component Yun Qianyue could control at will.

As the moonlit Ice Crystal Crown pressed down over her silver hair and settled on Yun Qianyue's head, a regal air beyond words dazzled everyone present! Even Xu Xiaoyan couldn't help exclaiming, "Aunt Qian Yue, you look so beautiful!"

With the New Moon Martial Soul behind her, Yun Qianyue looked just like a true Silver Moon princess.

No—her gaze was that of a queen.

Once she grew a little older, she would truly be a Silver Moon Queen.

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

"You're welcome! We're partners!" Tang Wulin replied with a smile and shook his head. The amazement in his eyes gradually receded, hidden deep within them.

Na'er looked at him, then at Yun Qianyue, and smiled. No one knew what she was thinking.

Soon, Tang Wulin brought up his plan. "I intend to finish making a full set of Battle Armor for Aunt Qian Yue before the start of next semester!"

"A full set? All of it Spirit Forged?" Yun Qianyue looked at Tang Wulin and asked.

Tang Wulin nodded. "Of course! Aunt Qian Yue deserves the best!"

At this, the corner of Yun Qianzhao's mouth twitched.
