Tang Wulin's eyes narrowed slightly upon hearing this. "This seems to be an attempt to divert public attention, but what does it have to do with me?"

Xie Xie hesitated momentarily before replying, "The spouse for this event is Gu Yuena."

Tang Wulin faltered slightly before exclaiming, "What did you say?"

Xie Xie repeated with a wry smile, "It's Gu Yuena! That's why I said they're targeting you!"

Tang Wulin's breathing immediately began to accelerate. Even in the face of a powerful being of Di Tian's caliber, he was able to remain calm, but in this instant, his heart was thumping rapidly.

The spouse of this joust for a spouse was Gu Yuena! Did she agree to this? The answer was very obvious; if she hadn't agreed, such an event wouldn't exist, and that was what was most hurtful to Tang Wulin.

Right at this moment, Yuanen Yehui's voice suddenly rang out. "Xie Xie, come and take a look; there's more information being released about that joust for a spouse event!"

Due to the Shrek Academy rebuild, everyone spent their spare time resting in the sanctuary under the Sea God's Lake.

"Wulin? You're back!" Yuanen Yehui was ecstatic to see Tang Wulin, and she immediately rushed over with an excited expression.

However, Tang Wulin wasn't feeling the joy of the reunion. "What new information was released about the joust for a spouse?"

A peculiar look appeared on Yuanen Yehui's face. "Er, take a look for yourself."

Shrek’s Seven Monsters and Gu Yuena amounted to four pairs of lovers, and the first pair to develop a relationship was Tang Wulin and Gu Yue, but their relationship had also been the most difficult and tumultuous one.

It had always been a bumpy road for them, and even after they clarified their feelings for one another during the Sea God Fate Match-making Convention, they still didn't come together, and even Shrek's Six Monsters were left feeling quite perplexed about their exact relationship status.

Tang Wulin was led to the resting area of the sanctuary by Yuanen Yehui, and Tang Wulin's heart immediately jolted at the sight of the image being displayed on the soul television in the room.

There was a woman in a long purple dress slowly making her way through a boundless desert, and her body would elevate with each step that she took as if she were a celestial maiden scaling a staircase to heaven.

Every single strand of her long silver hair was like translucent crystalline threads, and even though only her side profile was visible, the tall bridge of her nose, the exuberant purple of her eyes, and her long eyelashes all resembled perfect works of art.

Her mere presence alone had lit up the bleak and barren landscape of the desert.

It was her!

This was the first time that Tang Wulin had seen her through video footage like this, and she was breathtakingly beautiful.

Right at this moment, she slowly turned toward the camera to face it head-on with a slightly cold and aloof look in her eyes. She didn't say anything, and her figure began to fade amid a burst of melancholic music.

The image then transitioned to a massive waterfall with a mountain on either side and a flowing river down below. It was a scene that was thriving with vitality, and she was seated on a large rock not far away from the foot of the waterfall.

In this scene, she was wearing a white dress with her long silver hair draped over one of her shoulders, and she was gently arranging it using a wooden comb.

Everything seemed so peaceful and enticing, and the rich life force energy in the air seemed to have been buoyed by her very existence. This was like a scene from a perfect dream!

All of a sudden, the sky darkened, and a massive fireball appeared high up in the air, crashing down toward this peaceful paradise with a fiery tail trailing along behind it.

The woman looked up at the scorching fireball as a serious look appeared on her breathtaking face. She waved her right hand through the air, and a long and slender staff appeared in her grasp. Immediately thereafter, rainbow light appeared around her, and she rose straight up into the air.

Specks of light began to appear all over her body, but in contrast with the light emanating from the oncoming fireball, her light was far more radiant and beautiful.

As she ascended, an extremely intricate suit of silver armor appeared over her entire body, and the silver light around her glowed brighter and brighter. Soon, the silver light had swelled to the extent that it was able to hold its own against the massive fireball.

The two balls of light clashed violently, then exploded into countless specks of light that spread to every corner of the screen.

A resounding boom rang out before gradually subsiding, and a delightful yet cold voice rang out. "18th July!"

That was it; it was just a date without even a specific time being provided. The image faded away, but its impact continued to linger in everyone's hearts.

Xie Xie had known her for a very long time, but even he was struck by a sense of entrancement.

The juxtaposition of the gentle and delicate young woman sitting beside the waterfall and the powerful battle armor master rising up to face the giant fireball presented a truly stunning contrast.

It had to be said that the Spirit Pagoda had put a lot of effort into its promotion, and those two videos were undoubtedly going to sweep up massive waves all over the entire continent.

A woman's beauty alone would be enough to attract attention. If she possessed a lofty status on top of her beauty, then her allure would be elevated even further. What if that same woman was not just a stunning beauty with a lofty social status, but also a powerful battle armor master? That would be a perfect goddess!

Those two videos had completely silenced the doubters who were speculating about whether Gu Yuena was a hideous woman with no suitors willing to take her.

She was incredibly gorgeous, and that suit of battle armor she had displayed was clearly a suit of three-word battle armor!

She was the Spirit Pagoda's youngest spirit envoy, and a stunning beauty with immense power; not only was she not some hideous hermit, she was a true goddess!

Tang Wulin stood in front of the television in complete silence.

Both Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui were looking at him with concern in their eyes, and they couldn't tell what he was thinking.

They knew that to Tang Wulin, it wasn't important what the Spirit Pagoda was trying to achieve through this event; what was important to him was that Gu Yuena had agreed to this joust for a spouse. Had she turned her back on their relationship?

They knew that Tang Wulin was very objective and logical most of the time, but if his emotions were to get the better of him, then he could do some very extreme things. He and Gu Yuena had been through so much together, yet Gu Yuena had agreed to this joust for a spouse; what was he supposed to think?

"This is a trap." Tang Wulin finally spoke, and both Xie Xie and Yuanen Yehui were quite relieved to hear this.

"That's right, all of the Limit Douluos share the same opinion," Xie Xie hurriedly agreed, "The Spirit Pagoda is using this event to repress the negative press aimed at them and the news of our Shrek Academy's rebuild, and there's a very good chance that they're also trying to lure you into the open. If you ask me, there's no way Gu Yue would've agreed to something like this; there have to be some hidden circumstances behind this. Let them do what they want; I'm sure Gu Yue isn't going to choose anyone else."

Tang Wulin turned to him, and said, "Register for me."

"What?"
