After a while, the other freshmen also got up quickly and ran to the cafeteria.

However, when they arrived, they saw some freshmen with dark circles under their eyes who had arrived early and were eating food with big mouthfuls.

Without thinking too much, I hurried to queue up to get my food.

I've been hungry for almost a whole night and I can't stand it anymore.

As time passed, the cafeteria gradually became lively, with all kinds of noise and discussion filling every inch of the space.

"I'm starving! I'm really starving! I didn't expect that everyone is the same. There are so many people in the cafeteria."

"Hey! Have you looked over there? It looks like there's no one there! Let's go over there!"

“Stop, stop, stop! Over there is the paid ordering area that uses merit points. All of them are medicinal dishes made from high-quality exotic animal ingredients.”

"Huh? Medicinal food? I eat a lot of it at home! Since there's no one over there, let's go over there and order some! It's just a few merit points, it won't be a problem."

"But I heard that in the academy, ordering a dish requires at least several hundred merit points, and it is possible to even have thousands of points."

"What? Hundreds of points? Thousands of points? Are they robbing?"

“…”

Upon hearing this number, a freshman shouted, attracting the attention of everyone in the cafeteria.

Coincidentally, at this moment, an old student who was also there for breakfast came over and interrupted in a sarcastic tone.

"Robbery? How can robbing make money faster than selling medicinal food! This is how it works when you pay for food. Only those with a predestined relationship are welcome. Poor people are not welcome."

"I heard that it was all done by those guys from the Manufacturing Department."

Hearing this, the freshmen sat down angrily and stopped talking about what was going on over there.

A few hundred merit points is really a huge number for them today.

I can't afford it. I can't afford it at all.

Even if a few of them can afford these merit points due to family reasons, they would not be so stupid as to choose to eat medicinal food.

Compared to using elixirs for cultivation, the cost-effectiveness of spending money on medicinal food is really too poor.

Then, the freshmen changed the topic.

One of them looked at an old acquaintance with dark circles under his eyes with curiosity, and asked the reason on the spot.

"Song Qi, what's wrong with your dark circles? Didn't you sleep well last night?"

Hearing this, the freshman's face darkened instantly and he complained unhappily.

"Don't mention it, it's all Lin Pingan's fault! You don't know how despicable that guy is. He was grilling meat in the middle of the night and the smell was everywhere."

"How can there be such a mean person in the world?"

"After the House Examination is over, I will give him a good beating during the Villa Arena Challenge."

After hearing this, the friend sitting opposite nodded in agreement.

"That's true. He's mean, unsociable, and arrogant. I don't know how Lin Pingan grew up. He doesn't have any spirit of solidarity at all."

Ten minutes later.

A figure appeared at the entrance of the cafeteria, instantly attracting the attention of most people.

The freshmen were pointing and whispering while eating.

"See? That's the guy. That's Lin Pingan."

"I heard about it! He is the most eccentric and unsociable guy among the freshmen."

"She's pale, skinny, and small. She doesn't look like a warrior at all. Unlike me, I'm very strong."

"Tsk... I suspect you were driving, but I have no evidence."

"Huh! Why aren't you barbecuing at the villa? Why are you coming here to eat?"

"I heard that she is an eighteen-year-old first-class civilization master. How amazing!"

"What's so great about it? I heard it's a rubbish technique that's only effective for concentrating Qi and blood on the lower three grades. It doesn't add anything to combat power. A real man should fight head-on. What kind of warrior is it if you're timid?"

“…”

at the same time.

Lin Ping'an had long been accustomed to such looks, and was too lazy to care about the gossip. He walked to the payment and ordering area on the side, and then ordered the dishes with ease.

Although we harvested a lot of ingredients yesterday, except for the first-grade Qingfeng Cloud Rabbit, the others were of too high a grade to be cooked using ordinary methods.

That was why he appeared in the cafeteria, ready to eat in the cafeteria for a few more days.

These days, Lin Ping'an plans to learn some knowledge related to medicinal diet. As the saying goes, it's good to have many skills, and he is just sitting around doing nothing.

Anyway, it will come in handy sooner or later.

What's more, maybe it will be useful for creating martial arts in the future. He still understands the principle of analogy.

"A bowl of spiritual rice, second-grade steamed steel crab claws, second-grade braised bear paws, and second-grade grilled arrow-spiked bullfrog."

It took only a dozen seconds to order the dishes, and at the same time, a full 1,000 merit points were consumed.

Maybe because he was an old customer, the original price was 1004 points, but the decimal point was eliminated when charging.

After a moment.

Three huge plates were brought up, and instantly the whole cafeteria was filled with fragrance.

In a blink of an eye, everyone was attracted by the smell and cast their eyes over, some even drooling.

"Oh my god! This... this smells so good! Why does this medicinal food have such a strong flavor?"

"Wow... the food in my mouth doesn't taste good anymore!"

"That's not right! I've eaten medicinal food before, why is there such a big difference between what I eat in the academy and what I eat outside?"

"Idiot! Don't you know that the ones outside are all incomplete? How can they be compared with those in the academy? There is no way to compare!"

"I heard it's very expensive. How could Lin Ping'an be so extravagant?"

"Too generous, really too generous, is it too late for me to be friends with him now?"

“…”

On the other side, Lin Pingan remained calm and started eating.

He really had no intention of provoking others, it was just that it had been like this for the past month and he had gotten used to it.

At the same time, a staff member came up to the freshman with a smile and started promoting loudly.

"You can smell it, right? These medicinal foods are not only delicious, but also extremely good for the body and helpful for cultivation. They are the best choice for daily diet."

"For example, the second-grade braised wild bear paw that classmate ate was taken from the second-grade exotic beast, the Earth Wild Bear, and many natural treasures were added as seasoning ingredients."

“It melts in your mouth and leaves you with an endless aftertaste!”

"Eating it not only strengthens the cultivation of qi and blood, and speeds up the body and bones, but also relaxes the muscles and activates blood circulation, beautifies the skin... it can be said to have many benefits."

"Classmates, would you like one?"

After the description, coupled with the aroma, the freshmen were moved and wanted to try it.

Not far away, the old students were unmoved. They continued to eat and drink as if they hadn't heard what was said.

Ten or so seconds later, a freshman raised his hand tremblingly, with a hint of eagerness in his tone.

"That...that's how many merit points!"

The staff member smiled even more and spoke lightly.

"No need for 998, no need for 688, today is the start of school, the discount is only 298, and the second-grade braised bear paw can be served on the table."

"Classmates, action is worse than thought!"

However, upon hearing this, the freshman froze in place.

"298? So expensive?"

The other freshmen had the same expression. After Ya Ma was stunned, all his little thoughts disappeared.

What medicinal food?

They don't deserve to eat at all!

After seeing this scene, the staff member's smile gradually disappeared, and contempt appeared on his face. His eyes also revealed three parts of sarcasm, three parts of contempt, three parts of disdain, and one part of contempt.

It was like a fan-shaped chart, clearly displayed for all the freshmen to see.

The next moment.

The same tone was heard in the cafeteria.
