Chapter 106: Two Months Later

Zhen Yuan didn’t care what Zhu Huang thought.

In his heart, only Shen Xu was special.

Except for Shen Xu, he would not allow other doubles and women to call him so intimately.

“Student Zhu Huang…” Zhen Yuan called, wanting to remind Zhu Huang about the ice crystal.

Fortunately, Zhu Huang was not without shame.

Although he was a little annoyed Zhen Yuan didn’t let him get close, he didn’t want to rush his plan.

Thinking this way, Zhu Huang smiled and removed the ice crystal from his system space.

“Here you go.” He said and Zhen Yuan didn’t hesitate.

After getting the crystal, Zhen Yuan smiled and directly left the stage.

Soon after, he arrived in front of Shen Xu.

“Good job.” Shen Xu praised with a satisfied expression.

“For winning or…”

“That and for helping me deal with my love rivals.”

Hearing this, Zhen Yuan smiled and subconsciously rubbed the double’s hair.

“You have no love rivals.” He stated and Song Wancheng almost rolled his eyes.

’Anyone who falls for Shen Xu or Zhen Yuan is doomed to have a sad ending.’ Song Wancheng thought.

At the same time, he felt a little envious.

After all, his good friends had a very good relationship while he was still unsure about his feelings.

Thinking this, he turned to look at Lin Xiang.

At this time, Lin Xiang and Song Wanqing were walking towards them.

However, both looked gloomy and didn’t appear happy about ranking in the top five.

’It can’t be helped.’ Song Wancheng sighed.

In addition to Zhen Yuan, Li Yan and Zhu Huang performed extraordinarily well. Because of this, Song Wanqing and Lin Xiang appeared unremarkable.

“Shen Xu, you promised to treat us to dinner and drinks.” Song Wancheng reminded as soon as Lin Xiang and Song Wanqing arrived.

“I am in a good mood today. You can all have whatever you want.” Shen Xu promised, pulling Zhen Yuan to leave the academy square.

“Will you pay or will you let your brother Yuan pay?” Song Wancheng couldn’t help but mock.

“What’s the difference between my spirit stones and brother Yuan’s spirit stones? All of them are mine.” The double confidently declared.

Hearing this, Song Wancheng sighed.

“I don’t know what to say about you two.” He said.

After that, the five people went to a restaurant.

As he promised, Shen Xu was not stingy.

The five ate and drank their fill before going their separate ways.

On the tenth day was the formations assessment.

Unfortunately, the Cheng family and seemingly the formation profession were in decline.

Ultimately, a Cheng family child ranked first but his performance was lacklustre.

After the assessment, Shen Xu and Zhen Yuan returned to their room and promptly entered the space.

“Brother Yuan, it’s been one year and three months since we met. In another three to nine months, the red-veined loquats will mature and ripen.”

“Do you want to retreat?” Zhen Yuan inferred the point and Shen Xu nodded.

“It will take fifteen days to travel from here to Ping’an town and another two days from Ping’an town to Black Turtle Mountain. We will still make it if you retreat for two months.”

“Two months is almost two years in the space. It’s more than enough time to advance to the late stage of the foundation establishment realm and learn a martial art.” Shen Xu said.

“Have you decided which martial art you are going to learn?”

“I found a good one in the space library.”

“Okay.” Zhen Yuan nodded.

“What about you? What will you do when I am in seclusion?”

“Read the books on the fifth floor of the academy library.” Zhen Yuan said and Shen Xu sighed.

’Brother Yuan’s pursuit of knowledge is almost pathological.’ He thought.

However, Shen Xu didn’t dislike this kind of Zhen Yuan.

Following that, the two talked while walking around the space.

When they returned to the bamboo house, Shen Xu retreated in his training room and Zhen Yuan went to the academy library.

Two months later, Shen Xu came out of retreat and left his training room, intending to find Zhen Yuan.

However, Zhen Yuan was a step faster.

After Shen Xu exited his training room, he directly rushed into someone’s arms.

“Brother Yuan.” He excitedly called.

“Xiaoxu.” Zhen Yuan smiled with a doting look in his eyes.

“Did you miss me?” The double asked.

“Very much.” Zhen Yuan nodded and Shen Xu chuckled in happiness.

“Congratulations on advancing.”

“Do I get a reward?”

“What reward do you want?”

“Kiss.” Shen Xu said and without waiting for Zhen Yuan, he stood on tiptoes and kissed his husband.

A breath later, Zhen Yuan hugged the person and deepened the kiss.

From a tentative peck, the kiss turned into a raging fire, consuming the two young people.

However, they both knew where to draw a line.

Before Shen Xu was an adult by Earth standards, Zhen Yuan didn’t intend to take the last step.

“Are you hungry?” Zhen Yuan asked.

“Is there something delicious to eat?”

“A new restaurant opened in Dragon City. I bought a few dishes when I went there.”

When he heard this, Shen Xu immediately sobered up.

“You went to Dragon City? Did you encounter any danger?” He asked.

After all, the Shi family was still after them.

Most importantly, he and Zhen Yuan exposed their talent.

Even thinking with his toes, Shen Xu knew some forces would want to eliminate them while others would want to take advantage of them.

“I encountered an ambush the first time I went to Dragon City. After that, I took measures before leaving the academy.”

“Were you injured?” Shen Xu asked with a worried expression.

Although he knew Zhen Yuan was strong, he still worried about the person.

After all, Zhen Yuan was his beloved.

No matter when, Shen Xu worried and cared about him.

“Don’t worry.” Zhen Yuan smiled before he continued.

“The opponents were foundation establishment realm cultivators.”

“Which force sent them?” Shen Xu asked through gritted teeth.

Hearing the question, Zhen Yuan sighed and a strange light flashed in his eyes.
