As they left the stewed beef shop, Uncle Li gazed at their figures and sighed. "Kids these days have such a large appetite!."
The meal of stewed beef had not only brought Tang Wulin and his friends warmth, but had unknowingly knitted strong bonds between them.
Tang Wulin fully displayed the demeanour of a glutton god. As they went from one end to the other end of the food street, their conversation was filled with happiness and laughter.
"I'm full now." Gu Yue was clinging onto Xiao Ran back for support while Xie Xie held onto Tang Wulin's shoulder.
[By the way our mc is shorter than Gu Yue at this moment.]
Tang Wulin grinned as he spoke, "If your appetite isn't big enough, don't try to eat like this glutton god."
Xiao Ran looks at him with contempt, "I bet you wouldn't be this happy if your the one who's paying right now."
Xie Xie and Gu Yue laughed for a while as they also knows that Tang Wulin was quite reluctant to use his money.
Tang Wulin was quite embarrassed for a while but didn't deny him and began to speak.
"Come on, let's continue eating since Xie Xie's paying for it."
Xie Xie cried out in astonishment, "You still have space for food?"
'Hasn't this guy already eaten enough to equal a whole cow as we went down this street?'
Tang Wulin answered proudly, "Yes!"
"Ah! What's that over there?" Gu Yue broke them off suddenly.
Tang Wulin and Xie Xie lifted up their heads and followed Gu Yue's sight. There seemed to be a commotion near the entrance of food street and there were many bystanders crowding around.
"Let's go and take a look." Xie Xie couldn't be bothered to bicker with Tang Wulin, so he quickly ran off. Tang Wulin and Gu Yue could only follow him while Xiao Ran stop for a moment as he sense someone was looking at him but he was shocked to see someone that wasn't supposed to be there.
"How come that person is here?!! Shouldn't she have died after that time and yet why is she here. "
Xiao Ran thought and before he could react he noticed that the woman he was looking at suddenly disappeared as if though she didn't exist.
Xiao Ran began to ponder for a while and many questions began to pop in his head but a sudden loud noise interrupts him which instantly prompts him to looks for the others knowing that they should be already fighting him.
Xiao Ran quickly ran towards the trio and quickly noticed that the battle was already over. Guang Long has already been defeated and quietly running away as he was scared by the sudden power of Tang Wulin which got his arm smashed.
Xie Xie and Gu Yue was currently surrounding Tang Wulin as they looks closely at his golden scales hand and began questioning him.
Tang Wulin smiled grimly. "I also don't know what happened. This was its second appearance. Those scales rapidly consumed my stamina and soul power, but gave me a rapid surge of power for a short time. That's all I know."
Xiao Ran quickly joins the group which diverts their attention to him as they instantly got mad at him for disappearing at a critical moment and began questioning where he went.
"My bad, I'm sorry I suddenly left but I had to meet someone special just now."
Xiao Ran awkwardly laugh and quickly apologize as he was quite scared by angry looks of everyone.
"Anyway Let's return first and talk later."
They exchanged farewells with Uncle Li. Xie Xie secretly stuffed some money into Uncle Li's chest before speeding off in the direction of the academy.
Tang Wulin and the others began to tell their experience early with each other but suddenly Gu Yue asked Xie Xie if the guy that they had fought before would seek revenge on Uncle Li yet Xie Xie confident deny that it wouldn't happen at all as he would call his family to look after the shop.
On the road back, Tang Wulin had a pensive look the entire trip. Gu Yue also looked somewhat thoughtful while Xie Xie wrinkled his brows yet Xiao Ran was behind them looking a little daze. Each and every one of them had many things on their mind.
"I'm going back now." As soon as they entered the academy grounds, Gu Yue and Xiao Ran bid farewell to the other two and returned to their dormitory. As for Tang Wulin and Xie Xie, they returned to their own dorm.
"Hey, Why weren't you there? I almost got hurt if not for Tang Wulin and yet in that moment I thought that you'll be the first person to rescue me if I'll ever be in danger."
Gu Yue suddenly spoke after they entered their dorm which instantly got Xiao Ran silent and didn't know what to say.
'Girl, you'll be fine as your future husband was with you and he'll surely protect you at all cost and besides I already know that you all would win without getting harm anyway well except Xie Xie.'
Xiao Ran thought for a bit and was about to make a joke about the matter but the lost and dazed looks of Gu Yue made him instantly guilty.
"I'm sorry."
The only thing that came out from Xiao Ran mouth yet Gu Yue didn't say anything and began to meditate in her bed.
Xiao Ran couldn't sleep at all that night as he couldn't help but remember the daze looks of Gu Yue that night.
Life regained its normalcy. Though the match between first grade class five and class four had happened a day ago, it didn't cause many waves within the academy since it was merely a match between the two of the lowest ranking classes in the lowest grade.
However, this match caught the attention of some. For instance, that of the first grade's class three, who would be competing against the first grade's class five in the afternoon.
Tang Wulin and the others followed Wu Zhangkong but they quickly we're baffled by the fact that their opponents we're triplets.
The match began and without a surprise Tang Wulin and the others easily won as Tang Wulin randomly threw Xie Xie at their opponents after witnessing their opponents martial soul let them have the ability to fly.
Gu Yue also helped Xie Xie by throwing icicles throughout the sky to make a platform for Xie Xie to move around in the air and within a seconds Xie Xie took down two of their opponents easily.
It had been only a few breaths of time since the start of the match, yet the match's progress had left its audience dumbfounded.
Gu Yue and Xie Xie's marvellous combination made it seem as though it was as easy for them to fight in the air as it was to fight on the ground.
Total defeat. They weren't able to even speak about having a rematch.
"First grade's class five wins!" When these words left Long Hengxu's mouth, they clearly had a note of shock to them.
If one were to speak of the victory of the previous day, then one would discuss the individual capabilities of the first grade's class five team. If one were to speak of today's match, then it would be teamwork that won them the game.
While this was all happening Xiao Ran was nowhere to be seen as he was currently visiting a large building with a paper within his hands while wearing a mask to hide his looks.
After a couple of minutes Xiao Ran leaves the building with a smile on his face while holding a guitar.
'I never thought that I could sell those music from my past life and thankfully I was into music and heard countless songs that I could replicate in this world. '
Xiao Ran had already started becoming a singer in this world after he reached Spirit Grandmaster level as an insurance for him if ever someone would come and trouble him.
Surprisingly after his countless days of replicating the music from his past life. It had got him fame to the point that his staged name was famous throughout the continents as long as the person quickly got into music industry then they will quickly be familiar with his staged name and his countless famous released songs.
