This situation naturally piqued the curiosity of the surrounding students, who all looked over, wanting to know who was so extravagant as to buy out the entire stock of Grade A meals!
Although Tang Wuling's personality was no longer shy thanks to Cheng Duoyi's help, she still couldn't help but blush.
Tang Wuling lowered her head: "Brother Yi'er, am I eating too much..."
Cheng Duoyi held her hand: "What are you thinking? Being able to eat is a blessing!"
At Cheng Duoyi's words, Tang Wuling instantly regained her vitality.
"That's right, it's a good thing I can eat. They can't eat as much, so they're just envious of me!"
After getting their food, the three of them took their trays and found a spot with fewer people to sit down. Tang Wuling began to eat impatiently, finishing a full portion in no time, which left the chef at the Grade A food stall nearby stunned.
"I've truly lived to see it all. I never expected a young girl among this year's freshmen to have such an appetite. It seems I'll need to prepare more ingredients in the future."
Yes.
Cheng Duoyi had bought out the entire Grade A menu.
Because very few people ate Grade A meals, the supply was limited. The chef hadn't expected to encounter such a big eater; if he hadn't prepared extra, there wouldn't have been enough for anyone else!
Watching Tang Wuling easily finish three portions, Leng Xue'er couldn't help but marvel at how lucky Cheng Duoyi was. He had just gone out for fun and stumbled upon two girls with powerful talents, and the two of them even got along so well.
Leng Xue'er quite liked Tang Wuling as well; after all, Tang Wuling was very good to Cheng Duoyi, so it was impossible for her to dislike her.
Moreover, she had some guesses about Tang Wuling's situation. She likely possessed a powerful bloodline; otherwise, it would be impossible for her to eat so much.
Tang Wuling had eaten five portions. Watching Cheng Duoyi, who had just finished a little over half of his own, she couldn't help but ask: "Brother Yi'er, I eat so much now, will I eat you into poverty?"
"How could that be?" Cheng Duoyi's appetite wasn't large: "If you could eat even more, I would only be happy. I have plenty of Federation Coins; even if you ate like this every day, you wouldn't spend it all in a lifetime."
"Hmph, liar. How could it be impossible to spend it all in a lifetime?" Tang Wuling didn't believe him.
Cheng Duoyi just smiled and said nothing.
Leng Xue'er, however, caught the implication.
After the three finished eating, Cheng Duoyi and Leng Xue'er walked Tang Wuling back to the girls' dormitory. Leng Xue'er watched as Cheng Duoyi entered the boys' dormitory before she finally left.
Cheng Duoyi discovered that the dormitory had already been repaired.
One had to admit, the academy's repair speed was quite fast.
Xie Xie was sitting on the lower bunk on the right, subconsciously looking toward the door. When he saw Cheng Duoyi walk in, he froze instantly.
His martial souls were the Light Dragon Dagger and the Shadow Dragon Dagger, and he also possessed a faint trace of dragon bloodline in his body. At this moment, in his eyes, Cheng Duoyi felt like an irresistible force of nature.
The aura Cheng Duoyi radiated was even more mesmerizing to him, making him want to stay by Cheng Duoyi's side forever.
What he found most unacceptable was that the blood in his body was cheering, and his Light Dragon Dagger and Shadow Dragon Dagger were faintly crying out.
"Something's wrong! Something is one hundred percent wrong!"
Xie Xie suppressed the longing in his heart, stood up from the bed, and looked at Yun Xiao on the upper bunk.
"Phew, thank goodness, thank goodness. I only had a strange thought about this freshman; I don't like boys. I'm still straight, not bent."
Xie Xie breathed a sigh of relief.
"But this isn't right! How could this person attract me? Could it be love at first sight? Impossible! Absolutely impossible! I can't possibly like boys; I like girls!"
Xie Xie felt unsettled, beginning to doubt his own sexual orientation, never once suspecting that the issue lay with Cheng Duoyi's aura.
"Hello, my name is Cheng Duoyi. We'll be roommates from now on."
As Cheng Duoyi approached Xie Xie, he suddenly felt the blood in his own body boiling and his martial soul leaping with joy, which caused his face to flush and his speech to become stuttered.
"H-hello, my name is... Xie Xie."
Xie Xie said, stumbling over his words.
Yun Xiao, on the upper bunk, felt his heart jump into his throat.
Others might not know about Cheng Duoyi's situation, but how could he not?
He was a bona fide humanoid beast!
He had broken Zhou Changxi's ribs with a single punch, leaving him unconscious. Among their peers, who else could do that?
"This isn't right! Logically speaking, Cheng Duoyi shouldn't be this easy to talk to. Could it be that he only acted that way because Zhou Changxi provoked him, and he's actually a very easygoing person?" Yun Xiao pondered in his heart.
"That's it. Cheng Duoyi's background is unfathomable. His sister alone is an eight-ring Soul Douluo. The battle armor that can be retracted instantly must be at least a two-word battle armor, and his soul ring configuration is heaven-defying—six black and two red. He must have a hundred-thousand-year soul spirit."
"If Zhou Changxi hadn't been running his mouth, he definitely wouldn't have dealt with him."
"After all... up until now, no rumors about Cheng Duoyi and his sister's background have circulated."
Once Yun Xiao figured this out, he relaxed, no longer worried.
He had truly been afraid that Cheng Duoyi was a ruthless person who bullied others at will.
"I'm Yun Xiao. Please take care of me in the future."
Although Yun Xiao didn't know what was going on, greeting him was certainly the right move, so he climbed down from his bunk and said.
Cheng Duoyi nodded: "We just met."
Yun Xiao lowered his head in embarrassment, not daring to look at Cheng Duoyi.
"I'm a person who likes making friends, and this is a welcome gift for you both."
Cheng Duoyi handed each of them a golden card, and the two were shocked after taking them.
"This is... an entry card for the Primary Spirit Ascension Platform? You're just giving this to me so easily?" Yun Xiao said in shock.
Xie Xie understood the value of the Primary Spirit Ascension Platform entry card even better: "I heard that the Primary Spirit Ascension Platform only opens up one thousand spots each month. They're priceless and impossible to find on the market, as they're all reserved by various factions. Plus, it costs five hundred thousand Federation Coin just to enter."
"This is too valuable; I can't accept it."
Xie Xie wanted to return the Primary Spirit Ascension Platform entry card to Cheng Duoyi.
Yun Xiao came back to his senses at this moment and did the same.
"I appreciate your kindness, but I can't accept this either. It's too valuable."
Cheng Duoyi opened his hands, and a handful of Primary Spirit Ascension Platform entry cards appeared in his palms, leaving the two of them stunned.
What kind of family is this!
How can he have so many Primary Spirit Ascension Platform entry cards?
Godmother?
Can someone ask her if she's still looking for a godson?
I can be one too!
Yun Xiao sighed inwardly.
It all makes sense now; otherwise, how could an ordinary person possibly have a soul ring configuration of six black and two red?
"Is this very valuable? My godmother gave me a lot of them."
"She said to make more friends while out and about."
"I'm only giving them to you because I consider you friends. Do you not want to be my friends?"
Because of the Dragon God's Wife, Cheng Duoyi was constantly having his vitality absorbed, leaving his complexion somewhat pale. His words now carried a special kind of magic that the two found impossible to resist.
They didn't feel like Cheng Duoyi was showing off his wealth, nor did he seem to look down on them; he seemed more like a naive, wealthy young master.
After all, when a young master gives you such a valuable item, what else can you say!
We have to have a conscience in how we do things!
