Big-Eater Tang Wulin

Hearing Wei Xiaofeng's words, Wang Jinxi and Zhang Ziyang exchanged a glance, then turned to look at him. Both wore expressions of disbelief.

"Is it really a good idea to tell the teacher about this? Besides, you were the one who took his bed first."

"If you tell either the teacher or the head of discipline, he'll get a major demerit."

"What do I care if he gets a demerit? He nearly killed me just now, and he even dared to step on my face!" Wei Xiaofeng's gaze swept over the two of them, full of disdain.

"You two cowards. If you don't dare, I'll go. But don't forget, he beat you up too."

"I'm going to get the head of discipline. I hope you remember what to say and what not to say."

After one last glance at them, Wei Xiaofeng strode straight out without hesitation.

What they didn't know was that, in a shadowy corner of the room, someone who looked exactly like Chen Ye was standing there.

He watched the three of them with interest, then his body suddenly vanished like a bubble.

Three minutes earlier, Chen Ye had just stepped outside when he ran into Tang Wulin.

The commotion on Chen Ye's side had clearly caught Tang Wulin's attention. Tang Wulin also knew he lived in this dorm, so he'd come over to take a look.

"Brother Chen, what happened? It sounded like there was an argument in there."

"Nothing much. My three roommates are really nice. They wanted to make my bed and clean up for me."

"Of course I agreed to such a good deal." Chen Ye smiled at the rather naïve-looking Tang Wulin and habitually ruffled his hair.

He had to admit, Tang Wulin looked delicate at this age, and his hair felt quite soft and smooth beneath Chen Ye's hand.

Feeling his head being ruffled again, Tang Wulin wore a helpless expression.

Chen Ye gave him a strange feeling, as if an older brother were patting his little brother's head. And yet, he didn't feel the least bit uncomfortable.

"Come on, let's go eat at the cafeteria and see what they have."

Chen Ye headed off to the side. Tang Wulin rubbed his head, then followed him, and the two went straight to the cafeteria.

Not long after they left, Wei Xiaofeng came out.

He scanned the area, and when he couldn't find Chen Ye, he headed straight for the discipline office.

Eastsea Academy's cafeteria was huge, with a wide selection of food, though everything was served cafeteria-style, and students could choose their own dishes.

The cafeteria offered three meal tiers: A, B, and C, each at a different price.

Only the C-tier meals were free, so naturally, both of them chose those.

Chen Ye picked two dishes at random, then sat down to wait for Tang Wulin.

But when he saw Tang Wulin, he was so shocked he froze.

Tang Wulin had taken a huge stainless-steel basin. It was half-filled with rice and piled with all kinds of dishes.

The school cafeteria had forty dishes in all, and he'd ordered nearly every one.

Chen Ye was stunned by the sight.

Tang Wulin carried the basin over and sat beside him, then shyly rubbed his head.

A rare, helpless smile appeared on Chen Ye's face. "You sure can eat... That's good, eat more. It's a blessing to have a big appetite."

"Hehe, it's free here, right? I didn't eat lunch today, so I got a little extra."

As he spoke, Tang Wulin rubbed his head again, looking a little embarrassed.

Chen Ye didn't say anything more. Instead, he smiled and raised his hand slightly. A whole birthday cake appeared in it.

It was a two-tier birthday cake, and it was enormous.

Tang Wulin stared blankly at the cake, then looked at Chen Ye in confusion.

"You can think of this as my ability. I can imagine things into existence, but they only last for fifteen minutes. After that, they'll disappear."

As Chen Ye spoke, he raised his hand slightly. A knife and fork appeared in his hand, and several plates appeared in front of him. "Want some?"

Seeing Chen Ye cut himself a big slice of cake, Tang Wulin swallowed and nodded enthusiastically. "Of course, Brother Chen! I'll be hungry again after I eat it, but it looks so delicious."

A glimmer lit up Tang Wulin's eyes. Chen Ye didn't waste words and pushed the rest of the huge cake toward him.

"It's all for me?! Thanks, Brother Chen." Tang Wulin swallowed.

He mixed the rice with more than thirty kinds of dishes, then wolfed it all down while eating cake.

Chen Ye glanced at him, raised his hand slightly, and summoned two large cups of milk tea. He pushed one over to Tang Wulin.

As the two of them tucked in, they drew quite a bit of attention.

Many students looked over at them, their faces filled with confusion.

They looked at the cafeteria, then at the huge cake and milk tea in front of the two, completely baffled.

But since it was the start of the school year, many people brought food from outside.

So although bringing in such a luxurious two-tier cake seemed unbelievable, nobody said anything.

Once they'd both eaten their fill, Chen Ye took the initiative to ask Tang Wulin about his family.

He knew a little about it, but not the specific details.

Tang Wulin's expression turned gloomy. Thinking about how both his parents had disappeared, he didn't really want to talk about it.

But looking at Chen Ye, whom he saw as an older brother, he hesitated for a moment, then told him what he'd been through.

"Ah, you poor kid. Whatever happens in the future, you have to tell me. If you need help with anything, you can come to me."

"My family's doing pretty well. If there's ever anything you can't handle, you can come to me. I'll do my best to help!"

Chen Ye's expression was warm, leaving Tang Wulin a little confused.

Though he didn't know why Chen Ye had said that, he nodded.

He had no idea what Chen Ye was thinking, or that the divine consciousness of Tang San inside him was about to awaken.

In this situation, he needed three rare treasures of heaven and earth to unlock the first Seal within him.

In the original timeline, with no other options, Tang Wulin had turned to Xie Xie.

But now that Chen Ye was here, all Tang Wulin had to do was come to him.

Then Chen Ye could determine exactly when Tang Wulin would break the first Seal.

Chen Ye possessed the Dragon of Imagination Martial Soul. He had no interest in the Golden Dragon King Martial Soul, but Tang San's divine consciousness was something he wanted.

At this stage, Tang San was very weak. Chen Ye could simply take the divine consciousness from the first layer of the Seal, then erase that stretch of Memory completely.

By erasing each layer and absorbing Tang San's divine consciousness, he could create a complete version of Tang San to play with.

A trace of amusement flickered through Chen Ye's eyes at the thought. Then the two of them headed back to the dorm together.

When they reached the dorm entrance, they saw Long Hengxu standing there, with Wei Xiaofeng, Wang Jinxi, and Zhang Ziyang beside him.

When Long Hengxu saw Chen Ye approach, his gaze turned dark as night.
