Douluo Dalu, a junior student, started his journey after being adopted by Bibi Dong.

Then she carefully pulled out the corner of the blanket that was pressed under him and tucked it in.

Then she sat on the edge of the bed and simply watched his sleeping face quietly.

Moonlight streamed through the window lattice, falling on the boy's handsome profile.

His breathing was very light, like that of an unsuspecting child.

She stared at it for a very long time.

After a long while, a gentle smile spread across that cold and aloof face.

Silent, yet absolutely stunning.

The next day, before dawn.

The playground was already full of people.

A cool morning breeze swept by, ruffling the wisps of hair on the girls' foreheads.

Chapter Seventy: Alluring and Seductive

Dressed in their training uniforms, they lined up in high spirits and began their morning run.

Yue Qingge did not join them.

He sat lazily on the stone steps by the playground, propping his chin up with one hand, watching the group of girls run past him with a bored expression.

In the morning light, the girls' long legs moved in turn, their ponytails swayed gently behind their heads, and sweat slid down their smooth necks.

Every frame is a feast for the eyes.

But he didn't seem to be in the mood to appreciate it today.

Liu Erlong walked over from a distance, his steps unhurried.

She wore a long black dress today, revealing her ample breasts.

The full curves made the dress look bulging.

Her slender waist was so delicate it could be grasped with one hand, and her long, straight legs seemed to be hidden beneath the hem of her skirt.

She walked over to Yue Qingge and sat down next to him.

There was a little distance between them, but the faint fragrance emanating from her was soothing to his soul.

Beautiful and alluring.

"What are you thinking about, my good student?"

She deliberately dragged out the word "student" and added a slightly strange accent.

There was an indescribable comicality in the way it came out of her rosy lips.

Upon hearing this, Yue Qingge raised an eyebrow and turned her head to look at her.

The morning light fell on Liu Erlong's profile, softening her features.

She has long eyelashes, a high nose bridge, and full lips that, when slightly pursed, convey a sense of stubbornness.

"Mom is willing to talk to me now?" Yue Qingge's voice carried a faint hint of amusement.

At the same time, his hand reached out and landed lightly on her slender shin.

Liu Erlong's legs have extremely beautiful lines; her calves are slender and long, and her shins are covered with delicate muscles that are firm and elastic.

Yue Qingge's fingers gently traced across it, as if she were caressing a piece of exquisite porcelain.

Liu Erlong's body stiffened slightly, and his brows furrowed.

She could feel the warmth of that hand seeping through the fabric of her pants, accompanied by a tingling, itchy sensation.

She wanted to knock that hand away, but for some reason, her body seemed to have a mind of its own, and she just stood there, letting his fingers roam over her slender legs.

"So—" she forced back her tears, trying to make her voice sound normal.

"A genius like you, what troubles could you possibly have?"

Yue Qingge's finger paused for a moment, then she withdrew it.

He sighed: "Well, teacher, I have a question for you:"

Love.

Liu Erlong turned her head to look at him, her eyes filled with a mixture of wariness and curiosity.

How can I confess my feelings to my new adopted mother and get her to approve of our relationship?

Yue Qingge's expression was extremely serious when she said this, and her clear eyes were full of sincerity.

It was as if they were genuinely asking for help with an incredibly difficult problem.

"Isn't this something worth thinking about?"

Liu Erlong's fist hardened.

She really wanted to slap him; wasn't this like pointing at a monk and calling him a bald donkey?

Isn't she the "newly recognized mother"?

However, before she could react, Yue Qingge suddenly changed the subject.

"Or perhaps?" He turned his head, his gaze falling on Liu Erlong's face, a slight, mischievous smile playing on his lips.

"Does Mom want me to extract the essence for you to absorb, or should Mom extract and absorb it herself?"

Liu Erlong pouted and turned her face away from him.

"Can I not take it?" Her voice was muffled.

Yue Qingge remained unmoved, her tone calm yet leaving no room for refusal: "No."

He spoke those two words very softly, yet they made her heart beat a little faster for no reason.

The morning run continues on the playground.

These scenes were witnessed by the girls running by.

Zhu Zhuyun was the first to notice the interaction between the two.

She quickened her pace and ran to Huliena and Liya's side.

As he ran, his eyes kept drifting towards Yue Qingge and Liu Erlong.

"Nana, Liya—" Her voice was low, but her tone was full of excitement about gossip.

"Do you think Teacher and Qingge look like a married couple? Look at them sitting together, they're such a perfect match!"

Hu Liena paused, then snorted and sped off.

Liya covered her mouth and chuckled softly, offering no explanation. Her beautiful eyes curved into crescent shapes, filled with a knowing and indulgent gaze.

Zhu Zhuyun was left standing there, completely bewildered as to what she had said wrong.

"elder sister--"

A cold voice sounded from behind her.

Zhu Zhuyun turned around and saw her younger sister, Zhu Zhuqing, following behind, her beautiful cat-like eyes filled with helplessness.

"You're such a blockhead," Zhu Zhuqing said bluntly.

"If this continues, you won't even have the space to talk to your older brother anymore."

Zhu Zhuqing could see very clearly that her older sister also had feelings for Yue Qingge.

Zhu Zhuyun had grown up in a girls' school and this was her first time meeting a man, so she had no idea how to express her feelings.

Zhu Zhuyun blushed instantly after her sister said that, and opened her mouth as if to defend herself.

But she noticed that everyone around her was looking at her with strange eyes, and then they ran past her one after another.

She rubbed her head in confusion and quickened her pace to catch up with him again.

When Hu Liena ran to Yue Qingge's side, she didn't stop.

But she stretched out her slender fingers and gently flicked Yue Qingge's head, making a crisp "snap" sound.

"Junior brother, are you an idiot?"

Her voice carried a hint of coquettishness, and after saying that, she quickened her pace and ran away.

All that remains is a slender silhouette and a ponytail swaying gently behind her head.

Yue Qingge rubbed her forehead, which had been flicked, but a smile appeared on her lips.

As Liu Erlong watched the two playing together, a faint smile appeared on her face.

Her smile held a hint of gentleness, yet also a subtle, barely perceptible sense of loss.

But she quickly cheered up.

After the last person finished running, Liu Erlong stood up.

He dusted himself off and regained his dignified demeanor.

"Everyone, it's time for the next round of training."

Her voice was clear and powerful, echoing across the playground.

The girls quickly lined up and began a new round of training.

College life is always hectic; time slips through your fingers and you can never quite grasp it.

Three months later.

The Great Soul Arena of the Spirit Hall Academy.

Today, the stadium is packed with people, and the huge circular stands are filled with spectators who have come for today's match.

The battle for the top spot on the Prodigy Ranking is attracting attention from the entire continent.

Above the center of the arena, a huge soul-guided screen floats, clearly projecting every corner of the arena.

A middle-aged man stood on the platform, dressed in a formal suit, holding a microphone, and was enthusiastically hawking his wares.

"Ladies and gentlemen! Welcome to the Spirit Hall Academy Grand Arena!"

His voice carried far and wide through the amplified soul guide, echoing throughout the entire venue.

"Please welcome the Holy Maiden's personal disciple, Yue Qingge, to face Ren Yan, ranked second on the Spirit Hall Academy's leaderboard!"

"All contestants, please come to the stage for the competition!"

Chapter Seventy-One: Geneva!

He shouted at the top of his lungs, his face flushed and neck red, and his final words ignited the atmosphere in the entire venue.

Yue Qingge stood up and glanced back at Bao Wen, who stood alone behind them.

It was a VIP seat suspended high above, surrounded by a soul power barrier that blocked out external sounds and sights.

Inside sat a group of women, and he gave them a reassuring look.

Hu Liena covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes sparkling with girlish charm: "Alright, junior brother, let's finish this quickly."

Yue Qingge turned around and walked towards the arena.

He was dressed in white today, the white clothes as white as snow, which made his face look like jade and his posture as upright as a pine tree.

The moment he stepped onto the ring, it was as if all the lights in the arena were focused on him.

Across from the counter stood a young man who looked much older than his actual age, Ren Yan.

His face was sallow, and he had heavy eye bags, but his eyes held a hint of contempt and disdain.

"Hey!" Ren Yan shouted at the top of his lungs, "You're the only boy in that all-girls academy? You don't look that great..."

He didn't finish his sentence.

Yue Qingge has already moved.

He clenched his right hand in the air, and a longbow formed from soul power appeared in his hand.

Mysterious patterns flow across the bow, and the bowstring, as thin as a hair, is incredibly strong.

Draw the bow, nock the arrow, and the full moon shines.

The whole process was so fast that no one had time to react.
