I had this Dragon tree for awhile. I think keeping in my living room has caused the upper portion to become pale. I left it outside to see how it will do. Looking to repot it into a bigger pot. Just never got the time to do so with work. 
 

I really wish I could have it outdoor year round in my landscaping.

Yep, lighter green new leaves = stretched out " indoor " growth. 

Keep in bright shade until they harden off and you'll be good to go.

I have notice the soil might be too wet for its liking upon repotting with new soil and bigger pot. Definitely leaving it outside for the week to see some improvement.  I am receiving hot temperature outside for the week.🤞

Probably take a couple weeks to harden off that tender stuff..  As long as it sits where the sun can't hit it, warmer temps shouldn't really bother it, unless you'll be seeing 100+ heat like we may see here next week and until  ...-at least- the 2nd week of October.

Soil - wise, i'd probably put it in a  chunky mix high in Pumice and Turface content ( like 60% of the total soil mix being Turface / Pumice ) that way the soil will drain excess moisture, but stay moist enough between watering it. Indoors or out on a patio when not too hot or freezing.
