Douluo Continent: The Legend of the Dragon King? No, the Legend of the Six Kings!

The next day, Lin Nuo walked out of the dormitory somewhat tired. The negative effects of creating life in the small world still affected him in reality.

He had just stepped out of the dormitory, clutching his throbbing head, when he was met with a scene that left him dumbfounded. Tang Wuling stood before him, her face bruised and swollen, accompanied by Zheng Yiran and Gu Yue. He tilted his head in confusion, "Wuling, what happened to your face?"

"Brother Lin Nuo, I rolled off the bed yesterday."

"..." Lin Nuo looked at Tang Wuling, who was lying in front of him, walked over, and asked seriously, "Did you really roll off the bed?"

Tang Wuling faced Lin Nuo's concerned and earnest gaze, but remembering the contract she made with Sister Gu Yue yesterday, she immediately nodded frantically: "Yes, yes, I didn't sleep well last night and rolled off the bed."

Standing to the side, Zheng Yiran was trying hard to suppress her laughter. She knew perfectly well that Tang Wuling from the dormitory had really been beaten up by Gu Yue yesterday.

Seeing that Tang Wuling didn't want to tell the truth, Lin Nuo's gaze slowly fell on Gu Yue. He knew without even thinking who had done it.

Gu Yue met Lin Nuo's scrutinizing gaze, her heart tightening slightly. She slowly turned her head away to avoid his eyes, remaining silent for a long while before whispering in a very low voice, "She did it willingly."

Tang Wuling looked up at Gu Yue with a puzzled expression after hearing her words.

They're not sisters! Didn't you say that only the three of them knew about what happened yesterday?

Why did you confess? Then all the beating I gave you yesterday was for nothing.

Lin Nuo sighed, already guessing the answer, but still asked, "Why?"

"If you promise something and then completely fail at it, shouldn't you be punished?"

Gu Yue suddenly became righteous and met Tang Wuling's gaze coldly. Tang Wuling immediately turned her head away, not daring to meet Gu Yue's cold gaze.

Zheng Yiran stood quietly outside the three people like a bystander, watching them. She seemed to have discovered something interesting: it seemed that these three were actually old acquaintances who had known each other for a long time, rather than just ordinary friends.

Moreover, she discovered something very interesting: Tang Wuling was being beaten down by Gu Yue, while Gu Yue was being beaten down by Lin Nuo.

Yesterday, Gu Yue appeared strong and aloof, but when faced with Lin Nuo's questioning, she was not assertive at all, and even a little shy.

She stroked her chin, lost in thought, curious about the trio, and felt a little superfluous.

"What are you four doing here?" Wu Changkong arrived at school early in the morning and saw four people outside the dormitory instead of having breakfast, so he walked over curiously and asked.

Soon, he saw Tang Wuling's swollen face, and his icy expression almost faltered. Suppressing his laughter, he looked at Tang Wuling and asked, "Tang Wuling, what happened to your face?"

"He fell off the bed."

Wu Changkong: "..."

"I'm really curious what kind of bed or floor is so amazing that it could turn you, a Soul Master, into... a pig's face."

"Emmmm..." Tang Wuling was at a loss for words, her eyes frantically pleading for help from Gu Yue and Lin Nuoge.

Seeing Tang Wuling's subtle glances, Wu Changkong understood what had happened. His gaze fell on Gu Yue, and finally on Lin Nuo. After a long silence, he chose not to ask any more questions: "Go eat breakfast quickly, the class will be gathering in a bit."

After saying that, he turned and left without looking back. This was a matter for the students, and he could tell that they didn't mean any harm, so he decided to let them handle it themselves.

Lin Nuo naturally understood the look Wu Changkong had given him earlier, and looked at Gu Yue, saying, "Gu Yue, next time you beat up Wu Ling, you don't have to hit her so hard. She's still a girl."

"Okay, I won't hit her face next time."

Did this guy take it to heart, or did he misunderstand it?

Seeing this, Lin Nuo looked helplessly at Tang Wuling, his eyes telling her, "Little sister, good luck to you."

Class 5, Grade 1.

After having breakfast in the cafeteria, the four of them went to their classroom, where Wu Changkong was already waiting for them.

"Now that you're here, please find a seat."

Upon hearing Wu Changkong's words, the four immediately found seats. However, when Wu Changkong opened his eyes, he saw a strange scene: Lin Nuo was being attacked from both sides by Gu Yue and Tang Wuling, while Zheng Yiran sat on the side with a look of amusement.

He thought for a few seconds and then stopped worrying about it, hoping that Lin Nuo wouldn't be hacked to pieces in the future.

"Donghai Academy holds a promotion tournament every year. The bottom-ranked class challenges the top-ranked class. If they win, they swap class rankings and can continue to try to move up until they are defeated."

Wu Changkong was writing on the blackboard with chalk when he suddenly stopped writing. He turned to the four of them and said, "With your strength, I think this promotion tournament is child's play. The strongest student this year is only a Great Soul Master."

He felt that it was a waste of talent for these four people to stay in Donghai City; they should be more suited to a bigger stage. But considering Lin Nuo's identity, he dismissed the idea.

"Fine, just treat this promotion tournament like a game." Wu Changkong finally decided to stop this boring lesson and quickly changed the topic, "Lin Nuo, isn't your forging talent quite good?"

"Yes, Ms. Wu."

"Then come to my house tomorrow, since you have the day off. I have several books on forging knowledge there, come and get them."

"Teacher, I'm going to the Forging Association tomorrow. One of my forging teachers is Mu Chen," Lin Nuo said truthfully. He had promised his teacher that he and Wu Ling would go to the Forging Association tomorrow.

Wu Changkong: "..."

His face turned cold, not because he was dissatisfied with Lin Nuo's answer, but because he felt somewhat useless.

"What about Tang Wuling?"

Tang Wuling immediately stood up, her bruised and swollen face looking particularly comical, and replied, "Teacher, my current forging teacher is also Teacher Mu Chen."

Wu Changkong fell silent, suddenly feeling as if he had nothing to teach, and a sense of frustration arose in his heart.

"Pfft~" Zheng Yiran couldn't help but laugh out loud. It was the first time she had seen that sense of defeat in Wu Changkong, and she couldn't hold back her laughter.

Wu Changkong stared coldly at Zheng Yiran like a shark smelling blood. Feeling that murderous gaze, Zheng Yiran immediately lowered her head. Damn it, why is my sense of humor so low!

"Zheng Yiran, it seems you have a lot of ideas."

"No, no, teacher."

"Then what are you laughing at?"

"I'm thinking of happy things."

"How happy are you?" Wu Changkong's tone turned several degrees colder as he said, "Tell me about it."

Facing Wu Changkong's murderous gaze, Zheng Yiran suddenly stood up and said, "Teacher, I am guilty. I will punish myself by circling one hundred times."

"Then let her go." Wu Changkong only wanted to scare Zheng Yiran, but he didn't expect her to want to run away so badly. So let her run away.

Lin Nuo watched Zheng Yiran leave, silently mourning for her for a few seconds. As for sympathy, even if that girl were punished by running a hundred laps, it wouldn't matter. Teacher Wu Changkong would sometimes turn a blind eye, and as long as it wasn't too excessive, he wouldn't say anything, which was completely different from Zhou Yi.
