Douluo: This Legend of the Dragon King is not quite right

Chapter 92 Taking the Initiative to Find Gu Yuena
"From the circulation of soul power to the application of mental power, from combat skills to domain control... I will personally keep an eye on you! Trying to slack off? No way!"

"From now on, you only need to go to the academy to take the most basic courses, and I will teach the rest myself, even if it takes up my working hours."

As she spoke, Leng Yaozhu's gaze towards Lu Jun gradually intensified.

That night, under Leng Yaozhu's strict and meticulous guidance, Lu Jun spent a fulfilling time that made him question the meaning of life.

Leng Yaozhu seemed to want to transform all her shock and curiosity into motivation for training, squeezing out every bit of potential from his body.

It wasn't until the sky began to lighten that Leng Yaozhu mercifully released him back to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy.

……

The campus was still cool with a light mist in the early morning.

As soon as Lu Jun stepped into the dormitory area, a figure rushed over in a flurry.

"Brother Lu, Brother Lu, you're finally back!" Long Chen, sporting dark circles under his eyes, had a face full of worry and gossip. "Where did you go yesterday? I waited for you in the dorm until midnight! I thought you'd been kidnapped by some senior!"

I was definitely not lured away by my senior.

She was kidnapped by her teacher.

Lu Jun rubbed his throbbing temples and said irritably:

"What are you thinking about? You've been kept after class by the teacher."

"Extra lessons?" Long Chen was taken aback, then suddenly realized, and an exaggerated expression of admiration appeared on his face. "Oh... Your Majesty Tianfeng! Yes, yes, yes! Brother Lu, you are the Deputy Tower Master's personal disciple! I'm so envious to be personally taught by Your Majesty!"

"How was it? Wasn't Your Majesty incredibly powerful? What unparalleled combat techniques did you learn?"

Looking into Long Chen's sparkling eyes, Lu Jun's lips twitched.

What were taught?
Just thinking about the night he spent with Leng Yaozhu makes him feel exhausted, and all he wants to do is go back to his dorm and meditate to recover.

"Nothing special, just basic training," Lu Jun replied vaguely, then, as if remembering something, changed the subject: "By the way, do you know which floor the Design Association is on? I'm looking for someone."

"Design Association? It's on the third floor, east side of Annex Building No. 3." Long Chen immediately pointed the way, then asked curiously, "Brother Lu, what are you designing? Mecha?"

"I think mechs are really cool too. Once I reach the fifth ring, I definitely want to get one to play with!"

"Battle Armor".

After hearing Long Chen's words, Lu Jun uttered two words and then ignored Long Chen's instantly petrified expression, heading straight towards the location of the No. 3 annex building.

At the front desk of the Design Association, an upperclassman was idly flipping through a journal.

Hearing footsteps, she looked up, and when she saw that it was Lu Jun, her eyes lit up instantly, and her face was filled with a warm smile.

"Oh, isn't this our college's big star, junior Lu Jun!" The senior's voice was teasing and excited. "What a rare guest! What brings you here? Looking for someone? Let me guess... are you here to see our Design Association's ice queen, Silver Dragon Gu Yuena?"

She winked mischievously.

"Tsk tsk, looks like the rumors were true, huh? You two..."

Lu Jun was somewhat embarrassed by this overly enthusiastic attitude and frank gossip, and quickly interrupted:
"Senior, could you please inform Gu Yuena that I need to discuss something with her?"

"Okay, okay, no problem." The senior student smiled like a cat that had just stolen some cream. "How could I dare to neglect the requirements of a big star?"

"Wait, I'll summon your silver dragon for you right away!"

She emphasized the word "your," then picked up the communicator, and while answering, turned back to give Lu Jun a "good luck" gesture. Lu Jun: "..."

This misunderstanding is too deep, isn't it?

Not long after, a figure walked out from the corridor inside the design association.

Gu Yuena still maintained her aloof and unapproachable demeanor, with her silver hair flowing like a waterfall and her deep purple eyes.

But when she saw Lu Jun standing at the front desk, a faint look of surprise flashed across her eyes, as if she hadn't expected him to come looking for her.

"You were looking for me?" Gu Yuena's voice was calm and emotionless.

"Hmm." Lu Jun nodded, ignoring the gossipy attitude of the receptionist who was practically perking up her ears, and went straight to the point: "I would like to ask you to design a set of battle armor for me."

Gu Yuena's purple eyes flickered slightly, but she did not answer immediately.

Lu Jun continued, "I know you have an extremely high talent in design, and my martial soul is ice-attribute, so my battle armor also needs to be perfectly compatible with my ultimate ice attribute and Ice Abyss Domain. Moreover, it seems that among our peers, only you and I had the basic level of making battle armor when we were around ten years old."

He paused and added:

"So, if you can help me design it, I will find a way to handle the subsequent material collection and core component forging myself, and strive to complete the initial construction of the One-Word Battle Armor when I reach the Soul King level."

Gu Yuena listened quietly, her gaze fixed on Lu Jun's face, as if scrutinizing the sincerity in his words.

After a few seconds of silence, she parted her red lips slightly:
"sure, no problem."

Her decisiveness surprised Lu Jun slightly, and the words he had prepared got stuck in his throat.

He had expected to need more explanation or a deal.

"Uh..." Lu Jun scratched his head a little embarrassedly, "Well... thank you. It's a pity that I'm only good at handling ice-attribute metals, so I probably can't be of much help to you in forging and manufacturing..."

"It's alright." Gu Yuena shook her head slightly, her silver hair gleaming softly in the morning light.

She looked at Lu Jun, and in his purple eyes, which seemed to contain a galaxy, there seemed to be an indescribable, inquisitive light.

Gu Yuena's voice, though still cold, seemed to carry a subtle, almost imperceptible warmth this time.

"As fellow students of the same teacher, we should help and support each other."

She paused for a moment, then continued:

"I helped you today, and perhaps in the future, when I find myself in some...unpredictable danger, you will also lend a helping hand?"

As she spoke, as if to see Lu Jun's reaction, she slightly raised her delicate, fair chin. Her face, so perfect it seemed otherworldly, shone in the morning light, and her clear purple eyes stared directly into Lu Jun's eyes.

In that instant, Lu Jun felt as if his heart skipped a beat.

The girl's upturned face was so close to his, and her cool gaze, tinged with a hint of expectation, was like a pebble thrown into a still lake, creating ripples of inexplicable emotion within him.

A subtle, indescribable feeling, tinged with youthful excitement, quietly arose within him, making his cheeks slightly flushed. He was momentarily speechless, simply staring blankly at the stunningly beautiful face before him.

It felt like a feather was gently brushing against my heart, tickling me and bringing a strange warmth.

Gu Yuena looked at him, who was slightly stunned and whose ears were red. A very faint, almost imperceptible smile flashed in the depths of her eyes, like a breeze passing over the surface of an ice lake.
