Freshman Class Nine

After Chen Feng left the dormitory, Wu Yue and several of Wu Yue's friends who had forced their way into the group followed behind him.

After being thoroughly beaten by Chen Feng in the dormitory earlier, these people had all been won over by his strength.

"Big Brother, it's still early. Let's go to the canteen and have a meal. Before coming here, I heard from my family that Shrek Academy's canteen provides high-grade ingredients. They're greatly beneficial to the body and help with a Soul Master's cultivation," Wu Yue said from Chen Feng's left.

"Big Brother, I'll cover your meal expenses from now on," Xiao Shan, one of Wu Yue's companions, said to Chen Feng.

Clearly, they wanted to flatter Chen Feng and establish a connection with him. For these noble descendants, being able to get acquainted with a future Peerless Expert just by spending a little money was simply a tremendous bargain.

But how could Chen Feng owe someone a favor over a mere meal? He immediately declined politely. "It's only meal expenses. I can pay for them myself."

Seeing that they hesitated and seemed to want to say more, Chen Feng directly refused them. "Alright, I appreciate your good intentions."

These noble youths were still too young. They always made things seem too simple, believing that treating Chen Feng to a meal and spending a few Gold Soul Coins would be enough to forge a connection with him, allowing them to throw their weight around under his name in the future.

But they had forgotten one thing: why should an extraordinary prodigy accept their deliberate, insignificant, and blatantly opportunistic attempts at ingratiation?

Chen Feng knew perfectly well that, given his talent, countless people would seek to win him over and establish ties with him in the future.

All Chen Feng needed to do was keep growing stronger. Fawning over the powerful was human nature, and he could not possibly refuse everyone. All he had to do was neither reject nor accept those so-called favors.

Then Chen Feng stopped paying attention to them and headed toward the canteen on his own.

The few of them exchanged stiff looks. Chen Feng's indifference made these young men realize that groveling was not so easy after all.

Wu Yue, Chen Feng's roommate, watched Chen Feng walk away and immediately followed after him.

Unlike the others, who had merely caught a glimpse of Chen Feng being swiftly knocked to the ground and simply concluded that Chen Feng possessed strong Soul Power, Wu Yue had spent more time with Chen Feng as his roommate, so his understanding of Chen Feng's terrifying strength was much clearer.

Wu Yue had a premonition that Chen Feng would surely reach heights beyond anything he could imagine in the future.

So Wu Yue made up his mind and closely followed him.

The remaining few exchanged looks.

"Forget it. Chen Feng is too hard to approach. We're not even in his eyes. I'm not going to press my warm face against his cold ass."

"He's not from the same world as us. We're second-generation nobles here to coast on our credentials, while he's an extraordinarily gifted peerless prodigy."

"I have a feeling Wu Yue might actually manage to latch onto him if he keeps sucking up like this."

"If Yueyue latches onto Chen Feng's thigh, we can latch onto Yueyue's thigh. Hehehe..."

"Big Brother, wait for me!! I'm eating with you!" Wu Yue shouted as he ran.

This drew the attention of the other students on their way to the canteen.

Chen Feng, who was heading toward Shrek Academy's canteen, looked at Wu Yue following behind him but said nothing. Everyone had their own legs; as long as Wu Yue did not affect him, Chen Feng did not care.

At Shrek Academy, every grade had its own canteen, located behind the Dormitory Area.

There were not many people in the canteen. Although it was extremely spacious, there was not even a single table or chair—just a completely empty open space. Chen Feng was left utterly speechless.

On one side were sinks for washing hands and utensils. Further inside were the windows for buying food, with prices displayed outside each one. There were eight windows in total, each serving different dishes, and the prices increased from right to left.

Food was not allowed to be taken out of the canteen and could only be eaten inside.

Both Chen Feng and Wu Yue chose the finest dishes at the innermost windows.

Chen Feng spent fifty Gold Soul Coins on one meal. Calculating the amount left in his Storage Soul Tool, he had less than five thousand Gold Soul Coins remaining. Chen Feng thought to himself, If I eat like this three times a day, this little nest egg of mine won't last long.

But Chen Feng was not worried in the slightest. With his strength, he was full of confidence. Even without finding some rich patron to support him, he could still make a fortune at the Shrek Soul Arena.

After eating, Chen Feng felt warm and comfortable all over. The food was expensive, but it was worth the price.

Then Chen Feng and Wu Yue headed toward the New Student Teaching Building.

Before long, Chen Feng and Wu Yue arrived at the entrance to Freshman Class Nine's classroom.

At this point, most of the seats in the classroom were already occupied.

Wu Yue glanced into the classroom from the doorway and said to Chen Feng, "Big Brother, we came late. All the good seats have been taken."

Chen Feng walked into the classroom without caring. "They're all the same."

The moment Chen Feng entered the classroom, he immediately drew the attention of the entire class.

The instant they saw Chen Feng's face, the whole classroom erupted.

"Oh my god, isn't that the handsome guy we saw at Shrek Plaza earlier? He's actually in our class!!!"

"Oh my god, his skin is so good, and his eyes are so bright!"

"Tch, you bunch of lovestruck idiots. What's the use of being handsome? He might just be all looks and no substance."

"That brat is really hateful. He actually stole the attention of all the girls in the class the moment he walked in."

Quite a few Female Students whispered and chatted with the companions beside them.

A beautiful, gentle-looking girl with light green long hair and dark green eyes, who appeared delicate and frail, said to the short-haired blonde girl on her right, "Ning Tian, he's so handsome. He's completely my type."

The Blonde Girl looked at Chen Feng and was also somewhat astonished by his appearance.

But as the Young Master of the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, Ning Tian was no lovestruck fool. Her standard for finding a boyfriend had never been looks; above all else, he had to possess great strength.

Ning Tian looked at the green-haired girl beside her with her large aqua-blue eyes and smiled. "He is pretty handsome. What, Yun'er, do you like him?"

To Ning Tian's right, a girl with short red hair and red eyes, exquisitely perfect features, jade-white skin, and a stunning figure was completely absorbed in admiring the Blonde Girl's face, paying no attention whatsoever to what was happening in the classroom.

What was so good about men? Ning Tian was much prettier.

At that moment, Nanmen Yun'er said to Wu Feng, "Wu Feng, Ning Tian is teasing me. Tell us, what do you think of that handsome black-haired guy?"

Wu Feng had originally wanted to say, "What's so good about men?" But when her eyes swept over Chen Feng, she immediately swallowed those words.

Wu Feng murmured, "He's... okay, I guess. Nothing special..."

Hearing Wu Feng's words, the green-haired girl Nanmen Yun'er said, "Oh my god, Wu Feng, your standards are way too high. He's only okay? Are there even any men in the world worth looking at, then?"

Meanwhile, Ning Tian looked at Wu Feng beside her with uncertainty.
