Chapter 115 Human Favor
"The Concealing Jade Pendant's concealment effect is indeed quite good," Chen Beiwu thought to himself.
The teachers in the second year of high school are mostly early Foundation Establishment cultivators, making it difficult for them to see through Yin Yujue's disguise, unless a teacher cultivates a special spiritual eye technique.
"That's outrageous!"
While Wang Kui was lecturing, the students in the class would occasionally glance at Chen Beiwu, their expressions complex and hard to decipher.
"Li Jing, do you think I would have succeeded if I had boldly pursued Chen Beiwu back then?" A female classmate passed a note to her deskmate.
"Definitely." Li Jing replied with a small note, speechless.
Don't be fooled by the fact that the girls in my class all look so dignified and virtuous; most of them are utterly lewd inside.
If it weren't for Xu Ziqing and Xu Lingling standing in their way, the girls in the class would have already swarmed forward and grabbed Chen Beiwu, this "Tang Monk's flesh," for themselves.
"..."
As the bell rang, Wang Kui decisively announced the end of get out of class.
He found the class very boring; the students were preoccupied and had no interest in listening.
Clearly, Chen Beiwu's advancement to the eighth level of Qi Refining affected not only him, but also his classmates.
"Even a family in decline can produce a cultivation genius!" Before leaving the classroom, Wang Kui still felt somewhat incredulous.
If Chen Beiwu can maintain this momentum, he might be able to break into the Thirteen Immortal Sects in one go.
As soon as the homeroom teacher left, the students in the classroom immediately swarmed forward and surrounded Chen Beiwu's desk.
"Beiwu, what kind of companion beast did you contract? Can you give me some advice?"
"With such rapid cultivation speed, are you taking pills or consuming raw spiritual herbs? Do you have any recommendations?"
"Beiwu, would you like to come over for tea tonight? My golden cat can do backflips."
"..."
Faced with a barrage of "whys" from his classmates, Chen Beiwu couldn't help but unleash the pressure of the eighth level of Qi Refining, calming the noisy surroundings.
He came to school to demonstrate his recent self-study progress, with the ultimate goal of applying for more self-study time, not to show off his academic achievements.
"Ask your questions one at a time, don't pile them all up together," Chen Beiwu said.
Upon hearing this, Liu Yan couldn't help but ask, "What kind of pill did you take to break through to the eighth level of Qi Refining?"
Upon hearing this question, the surrounding students suppressed their excitement and all showed expressions of curiosity.
Clearly, they were also curious about the answer to this question.
"I took the Spirit Nourishing Pill," Chen Beiwu said.
"Are you sure? I've also taken the Spirit Gathering Pill once, and I felt that its effects were just so-so, not suitable for breaking through the barrier." Liu Yan always felt that Chen Beiwu was hiding something.
The Spirit Nourishing Pill is a second-grade low-level spiritual pill, and each one is worth one hundred spirit yuan. It's normal for him to be able to afford it, but how could a country bumpkin like Chen Beiwu possibly afford it?
"Yes, I've also taken the Spirit Nourishing Pill, and I feel that its effects are not as good as a first-tier rare pill," someone chimed in.
"Beiwu, if you don't want to say, you don't have to. There's no need to lie to your classmates and just give them any random pill name," someone said sarcastically.
Upon discovering that someone was deliberately causing trouble, Li Jing stepped forward and said angrily, "You think the Spirit Nourishing Pill is only so-so, have you considered your own problems?"
"Have you forgotten the effects of the Spirit Gathering Pill?"
Upon hearing this, all the students present fell silent.
The higher the purity of a cultivator's spiritual root, the better the effect of taking the Spirit Nourishing Pill.
But Chen Beiwu only has the Earth Spirit Root.
Although this spiritual root aptitude is stronger than their true spiritual root, it has not reached the level of a heavenly spiritual root.
"Excuse me, may I pass?"
Hearing the sweet voice behind him, the girls who were blocking Chen Beiwu quickly stepped back and made way for him.
They all looked nervously at Xu Lingling, who had appeared out of nowhere.
Seeing this, Li Jing also glanced at Chen Beiwu and subconsciously distanced herself a little.
"You've arrived?" Chen Beiwu's eyes lit up.
Xu Lingling glanced at Li Jing and said softly, "It seems I've come at an inopportune time."
"No, you've come at just the right time." Chen Beiwu stood up, taking the opportunity to escape the encirclement of his classmates.
"It's been a long time since I've been to school. How about we go out for a walk?" he suggested.
"OK."
Watching the two figures disappear into the distance, Liu Yan clenched his white fists, a look of realization crossing his face.
No wonder Chen Beiwu could afford the Spirit Nourishing Pill; it turns out he's climbed the social ladder by associating with the Xu family.
What a treacherous villain!
Recalling Chen Beiwu's initial response, Liu Yan almost ground her teeth to powder.
On the surface, he casually mentioned that he didn't need the Five Elements of Foundation Establishment, but secretly he had his eye on Xu Lingling, this sweet and easy gigolo.
……
"It's rare for you to come looking for me." Xu Lingling stepped onto the lawn and looked up at the formation that blocked out the sky above the campus.
"I should thank you. Without your help last time, my business might have failed," Chen Beiwu said.
Hearing this, Xu Lingling turned around, looked at Chen Beiwu, and said softly, "Is it just a simple thank you?"
Chen Beiwu was slightly taken aback, suddenly feeling that the atmosphere seemed a bit off.
Seeing Chen Beiwu standing there without responding, a look of disappointment flashed in Xu Lingling's eyes, but a smile appeared on her face: "You didn't even invite him for a meal. Your dry thanks are really insincere."
Sensing that the atmosphere had returned to normal, Chen Beiwu seized the opportunity to invite, "Then, Miss Xu, would you do me the honor of having dinner with us?"
"Pah, what kind of Miss Xu is that? That title doesn't sound nice at all." Xu Lingling said with disdain, but her mood was much more relaxed.
She rolled up her sleeves, pretending to be fierce, and threatened, "I'm going to eat as much as I want later, and I won't stop until I've emptied your wallet."
Chen Beiwu waved his hand generously: "I've earned some spiritual energy recently, eat whatever you like."
"Being a boss really makes a difference." Xu Lingling stopped and pointed to a private restaurant not far away, "It's Li Ji Tea House next to the school."
"How about we go to a private banquet in Yueyang?" Chen Beiwu suggested.
Although he had never accepted the two women's invitations, he knew that Xu Lingling and Xu Ziqing often went to private banquets in Yueyang and had never been to the inexpensive Li Ji Teahouse.
Although Chen Beiwu had never been there either.
For him, even if Li Ji Tea House was cheap, it was still far less affordable than the school cafeteria.
"I'm tired of all the private banquets in Yueyang, let's go to this one." Xu Lingling shook her head.
She was joking earlier; a private banquet in Yueyang costs at least a hundred spirit coins.
If she eats freely, Chen Beiwu will probably spend most of the money he worked so hard to earn.
Upon entering Li Ji Teahouse with Chen Beiwu, Xu Lingling subconsciously wiped the chair with a tissue before sitting down.
She was about to wash the tableware with tea when her eyes suddenly fell on the gift box that Chen Beiwu had taken out, and she stopped abruptly.
"This is a thank-you gift I prepared," Chen Beiwu said crisply, handing over the gift box.
"What is it?" Xu Lingling's eyes lit up with surprise.
Chen Beiwu gestured, "You can open it and take a look."
Having owed so many favors, he can finally pay off some of them now.
"So mysterious," Xu Lingling muttered, opening the gift box to reveal the familiar iridescent glow.
