Chapter 262
The old gentleman shook his head and said, "Alright, as everyone can see, this time, Changgui is the winner. Anyone have any objections?"
Most of the students stayed as quiet as chickens, only a few were still passing around Zheng Tuo’s Qi Smoothing Elixir, exclaiming how Changgui could spot such a detailed error at first glance.
Feng Tian abruptly exclaimed, "I—"
Seeing everyone’s gaze suddenly turn sharply towards him, with a hint of "how can this person be so clueless," his tone changed, "Of course I have no objections..."
Changgui cupped his hands towards everyone.
The old gentleman nodded at Zheng Tuo, "You should apologize to Changgui."
Zheng Tuo clenched his fists tightly, a flash of malice in his eyes, but it quickly disappeared. He quickly and quietly said to Changgui, "I’m sorry."
"That’s it? Sounds like a mosquito buzzing!" Huo Ting said boldly with her hands on her hips.
Changgui wasn’t bothered, and laughed heartily, "It’s okay, it’s okay, it’s just a misunderstanding, solved now."
"You sure have a good temper now?" Huo Ting rolled her eyes at him.
Changgui scratched his head. If it wasn’t about the dignity of his family’s recipe, he really didn’t want to cause trouble. The Sect Leader also said to maintain good relationships between classmates.
Now, although Zheng Tuo’s gaze seemed a bit terrifying, the other students’ attitudes were much friendlier. In a way, he managed to maintain good relationships with his classmates, at least for the most part.
"Let’s end the class now." Just then, the bell outside rang, and the old gentleman waved his sleeve and said.
He has to quickly take this Qi Smoothing Elixir to show the young master!
Zheng Tuo was the first to leave without looking back, Feng Tian took a couple of steps, turned back to Changgui and said, "Wait for me! You, you little man with small success!"
After speaking, he hurriedly ran to catch up with Zheng Tuo.
Huo Ting slapped Changgui’s shoulder boldly, "Don’t be afraid of him, he’s just a clown. Come on, are you cultivating or reading during lunch?"
Changgui stiffened for a moment and said sheepishly, "I... can’t I eat?"
Huo Ting looked shocked, "How come as a cultivator who has already reached Foundation Establishment, you’re still craving food?! Is your family not well off? Don’t worry, I’ll go get you some Fasting Pills right away!"
Before Changgui could explain, Huo Ting swaggered away, her quick steps extremely carefree.
Changgui was speechless for a while, shaking his head, decided to ignore it, and chose to go eat instead. Last time he came for a visit, too focused on asking the old gentleman questions and testing his level, worried that the Sect Leader would disagree, the food tasted bland, and he didn’t pay much attention to how the cafeteria food was. Today, he would taste it properly.
Of course, he didn’t forget to bring his mooncake, humming a tune as he headed towards the cafeteria.
It must be said, the cafeteria was quite a distance away because the Immortal Cultivation Academy didn’t have one; you had to go to the regular academy side to find one.
Upon entering the regular academy, he happened to see students heading towards the cafeteria. Many were holding books, shaking their heads and reciting as they walked, not fearing running into trees.
Even though Changgui was quick to learn elixir knowledge and put in the effort to study, hearing these long-winded phrases made his head spin.
Luckily, he awakened his Spirit Root; otherwise, he wasn’t suited for the civil service exams... Farming seemed not his thing either...
With lingering fear, Changgui arrived at the cafeteria, shocked by the long line.
Was there this many people last time?
"Hurry up, today’s braised pork!" a person bumped into Changgui, looking him over, "New here? Don’t compete with me for braised pork! You can’t get such delicious braised pork outside!"
