Freshman Class Nine

After Chen Feng left the dormitory, Wu Yue and several of Wu Yue's friends who had forcibly tagged along followed behind him.

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

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

"Big Brother, I'll cover your meal expenses from now on," Wu Yue's companion, a boy named Xiao Shan, said to Chen Feng.

They obviously wanted to grovel before Chen Feng and establish a connection with him. For Noble descendants like them, spending a little money to forge ties with a future Peerless Expert was simply an enormous blessing.

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

Seeing that they hesitated as if they still wanted to say something, Chen Feng rejected them directly. "All right, I appreciate your goodwill."

These noble disciples were still too young. They always thought things were too simple, believing that treating Chen Feng to a meal and spending a few Gold Soul Coins would allow them to build a relationship with him, then use his reputation to throw their weight around in the future.

But they had forgotten one thing: why would an unrivaled genius accept their deliberately trivial, highly opportunistic flattery?

Chen Feng knew perfectly well that, with his talent, countless people would want to recruit him and forge ties with him in the future.

All Chen Feng needed to do was continue growing stronger. Seeking favor from the powerful was human nature; he could not refuse everyone. All he had to do was neither refuse nor accept those so-called favors.

Then Chen Feng ignored them and headed toward the canteen by himself.

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

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

Unlike the others, who had merely caught a glimpse of Chen Feng knocking them to the ground with ease and simply assumed that his Soul Power was strong,

Wu Yue had spent more time with Chen Feng as his roommate and had a clearer understanding of just how terrifying Chen Feng's strength was.

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

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

The remaining few exchanged glances.

"Forget it. Chen Feng is too hard to approach. He doesn't even see us. I'm not going to press my warm face against his cold backside."

"He isn't from the same world as us. We're second-generation nobles here to pad our credentials, while he's a Peerless genius blessed with extraordinary talent."

"I feel like Wu Yue's way of sucking up might actually let him latch onto Chen Feng."

"Yueyue latches onto Chen Feng, and we latch onto Yueyue. 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 heading to the canteen for a meal.

Chen Feng, who was walking toward Shrek Academy's canteen, looked at Wu Yue following behind him but said nothing. Wu Yue's legs belonged to him; as long as he did not affect Chen Feng, Chen Feng did not care.

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

There were not many people in the canteen. Though it was extremely spacious, there was not a single table or chair, leaving it entirely empty. Chen Feng could not help feeling speechless.

On one side were sinks for washing hands and tableware. Further inside were the windows for purchasing meals, with prices marked outside each one. There were eight windows in total, each offering different dishes, and the prices grew increasingly expensive from right to left.

Moreover, meals were not allowed to be taken out of the canteen and could only be eaten there.

Chen Feng and Wu Yue both chose the premium dishes at the innermost counter.

One meal cost Chen Feng fifty Gold Soul Coins. After calculating what he had in his Storage Soul Tool—less than five thousand Gold Soul Coins—Chen Feng thought to himself, If I eat like this three times a day, this little fortune of mine will be gone before long.

However, Chen Feng was not worried in the slightest. With his strength, he was full of confidence. Even without finding a rich sponsor, he could make a fortune at the Shrek Soul Arena.

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

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

Very soon, Chen Feng and Wu Yue arrived outside the classroom for Freshman Class Nine.

At this moment, 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're late. All the good seats have been taken."

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

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

The moment they saw Chen Feng's face, the entire classroom erupted.

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

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

"Tch, a bunch of lovestruck idiots. What's the use of being handsome? He might just be a pretty face with no substance."

"That brat is really hateful. He stole the attention of every girl in the class the moment he walked in."

Quite a few female students began whispering to the companions beside them.

A beautiful, delicate-looking girl with light green hair, dark green eyes, and a gentle temperament 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 dazzled by his appearance.

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

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

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

What's so good about men? Ning Tian is much prettier.

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

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 stammered, "He's... all right, 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 all right? Are there even any men in the world worth looking at, then?"

Ning Tian, however, looked uncertainly at Wu Feng beside her.
