Chapter 41 Class 1 I think Xie Jiaoyue has become arrogant and not gentle anymore...
As night fell, Chu Xingjin still didn't sleep.
He was born with boundless energy, was less prone to fatigue than others, and recovered more easily than others.
So much so that when he came out of Fulai Restaurant, the cold wind blew and most of his fatigue disappeared.
After taking Xie Jiaoyue back, he saw Xie Lingliu collapse from exhaustion. He hadn't done any exercise, just cheered her on from the sidelines, and he was no longer tired at all.
I can't sleep either.
Chu Xingjin strolled alone through the clan school. When he returned to his residence, he saw his roommates raising their cups to the moon, looking quite content.
He suddenly felt like having a drink together.
His roommate also saw Chu Xingjin. Holding his cup, he seemed at a loss. After hesitating for a moment, seeing that Chu Xingjin showed no sign of leaving, he politely said, "Young Master Chu, would you like to have a drink with me?"
Chu Xingjin immediately sat down opposite his roommate.
Chu Xingjin's roommate carefully poured him a glass of wine, filling it only halfway.
He was a little reluctant to part with it.
Chu Xingjin took it without savoring it, and downed it in one gulp: "That's refreshing!"
He drank much more heartily than he did at the Fulai Restaurant.
He naturally took the wine jug, poured himself two more flasks, and drank it all in one gulp: "Perhaps it's because you're with me that I feel so good."
The roommate watched Chu Xingjin's wine jug with trepidation, and immediately snatched it back as soon as he found an opportunity.
After three drinks, Chu Xingjin was clearly a little drunk. He didn't see his roommate's little tricks and, with sleepy eyes, grabbed his roommate's hand and started talking to himself.
"You know, Xie Jiaoyue used to seem gentle and considerate, so why is she so aggressive towards her cousin today? She's nothing like the Xie Jiaoyue I used to know."
Unable to free his hands, his roommate could only ask briefly, "What happened?"
After figuring things out, he commented, "Xie Jiaoyue probably loves you too much, which is why she doesn't want to give others a chance."
He added, "Don't go overboard or act too much. Xie Jiaoyue is so talented, yet she's willing to put so much effort into you. It's truly rare. You should take her feelings seriously and be devoted to her."
Chu Xingjin looked up at his roommate, whose generic face he could barely remember, he had no recollection of at all.
"Why would you say that? Even if Xie Jiaoyue has good talent, can she be compared to me? I will become a Celestial Venerable in the future, and I will definitely have three wives and four concubines. How could I be devoted to only one woman?"
The roommate with the average face was completely unaffected by Chu Xingjin's protagonist aura; he only felt troubled.
Good heavens, how did I end up living with someone who has delusions?
He hasn't even reached the Foundation Establishment stage yet, and he already thinks he can become an Immortal Venerable?
He asked, "Even if you become an Immortal Venerable in the future, can't you be an Immortal Venerable who is devoted to one person for life? Besides, don't you already have Xie Jiaoyue and Feng Qianqian?"
Although not all cultivators can do it, even in the Joyful Union Sect, there are very few cultivators with three wives and four concubines. The Joyful Union Sect generally does not have too many romantic relationships at the same time, since everyone is busy with cultivation and does not have that much time to maintain so many intimate relationships at the same time.
Chu Xingjin was even more puzzled: "I am so outstanding, so naturally I want to pass on my talent. For this, I would need three wives and four concubines. Two are certainly not enough. However, I don't just look at anyone. They must be exceptionally outstanding female cultivators."
In the “prophecy” he received, there were at least ten women accompanying him.
My roommate saw right through me: "So tonight, you felt that Senior Sister Lingliu was interested in you and could meet your standards for wives and concubines, but Xie Jiaoyue interrupted Senior Sister Lingliu's advances, which is why you're so unhappy?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? Senior Sister Lingliu is Jiaoyue's cousin. How could she treat her sister's fiancé like this? Don't insult Senior Sister Lingliu."
"Just tell me, if Senior Sister Lingliu wanted to pursue you, would you agree or not?"
Chu Xingjin paused, and after a moment said, "I really can't talk to you."
"Then you have to return my wine. It's very expensive; it's one of my prized possessions."
"Fine, I'll return it." Chu Xingjin took out a few spirit stones and threw them to his roommate without even looking at them.
My roommate picked it up and glanced at it.
Yes, it does indeed have the logo of the Xie family's main branch on it.
It's scary. It's fine to be a son-in-law, and using the spirit stones from a female cultivator's family won't be looked down upon. But if he uses them while not adhering to male virtues and also has some kind of mental illness, then it's not good.
He should stay away from people like that in the future.
His roommate gave Chu Xingjin change, then quickly left with the rest of his drinks.
Before his roommate left, Chu Xingjin felt it was pointless to talk to him, but after his roommate left, he felt lonely.
How about we continue chatting with my roommate and have a couple more drinks?
He staggered into the house, trying to knock on his roommate's door.
After knocking for a while, the door opened.
Why isn't he my roommate?
Oh wait, this person should also be a roommate. There are four of them living together, so he has three roommates.
Chu Xingjin didn't seem to mind who was chatting with him, and asked with narrowed eyes, "Who are you?"
"Jin Wan of the Jin family, you must be Young Master Chu Xingjin, right? Come in and have a seat, let's have a drink together?"
Chu Xingjin smiled and said, "Of course."
It seems that although he knocked on the wrong door, he didn't knock on it completely wrong.
Chu Xingjin repeated the complaints he had made to his previous roommate to Jin Wan.
"I don't understand why the moon has become like this."
Jin Wan frowned: "This Xie Jiaoyue isn't very good."
Chu Xingjin had been frowning, worried that Jin Wan would say the same boring things as the previous one, but now his brows relaxed immediately.
"Brother Jin, what do you mean?"
Jin Wan analyzed for Chu Xingjin: "Xie Jiaoyue's feelings for you are beyond doubt. However, she is just a furnace vessel. Why would a talented cultivator like us make a furnace vessel the main wife? Naturally, it is because furnace vessels are usually more gentle and generous and can manage household affairs in an orderly manner."
Chu Xingjin nodded repeatedly as he listened.
Jin Wan continued to comment: "But now, Xie Jiaoyue's jealousy is too obvious. How can a talented cultivator like us stay with only one woman for life? We will naturally have many confidantes in our lives. Xie Jiaoyue's jealousy will inevitably lead to unrest in the family in the future. It is not appropriate."
Chu Xingjin agreed with everything except that he didn't quite agree that he and Jin Wan could constitute "us".
Although Xie Jiaoyue and Xie Lingliu both acted as if they simply wanted to win and had nothing to do with Chu Xingjin, he firmly believed that they were actually fighting for themselves.
Although he didn't dislike this behavior, he didn't want to let Xie Jiaoyue continue to be so jealous.
"Sigh, Jiaoyue's personality really needs to be disciplined. Brother Jin, do you have any good ideas?"
Jin Wan also felt that he got along very well with Chu Xingjin. He had noticed Chu Xingjin during the entrance examination and was amazed by Chu Xingjin's performance. He was also impressed by Chu Xingjin's ruthless and decisive methods.
Therefore, she was overjoyed to see Chu Xingjin knocking on the door today, and naturally began to offer advice: "Xie Jiaoyue is young and doesn't know any better. She was gentle and considerate before, which shows that she has a good nature. But now that she has suddenly received a great honor and her talent has been praised by others, that's why she is acting this way."
Simply put, they got carried away.
"We won't have our first formal lesson until the day after tomorrow. I heard that we'll be divided into two groups. If Xie Jiaoyue and I are in the same group, I'll teach her a lesson and show her how to be a proper furnace cauldron."
...
The next day, the teachers gathered together to watch the new students' performance and began to group them.
The grouping logic is very simple: those with good talent are placed in the Heaven Group, and those with poor talent are placed in the Earth Group. As for those with average talent, their family background is taken into consideration. Those from relatively poor families are grouped with those with good talent, while those from wealthy families are grouped with those with poor talent.
This logic may be counterintuitive, but it was personally decided by the Director of the Heaven and Earth Bureau, and other noble families had no choice but to comply if they wanted to object.
This made life much more comfortable for the children of prominent families at the clan school.
Upon seeing Xie Jiaoyue, Instructor Mo, who had previously led the freshmen assessment, said, "There shouldn't be any problem with this, right? Jiaoyue's performance is evident to all, so she should naturally be assigned to the Heaven Group."
Commander Xie was in a dilemma: "But the Third Elder spoke to me and said that although Jiaoyue seems to have good martial arts skills, she is actually not very smart and has a very timid personality. She used to always hide behind Gong Shirao, so he asked me to assign her to the Earth Group."
Commander Xie repeated Elder Xie San's words: "Although Jiaoyue seems to have good talent, as a furnace cauldron, it is obvious from a young age that she is not very bright. If such a person follows the Heavenly Group, wouldn't she be very easy to be discouraged?"
He sighed: "Anyway, that's what Elder Xie said, and there's some truth to it."
He rarely returned to the Xie family and was not familiar with Xie Jiaoyue.
Commander Mo also hesitated. If Xie Jiaoyue was introverted and timid, she would indeed be prone to problems due to differences in cultivation progress. If that were the case, assigning her to the Heavenly Group would actually harm Xie Jiaoyue.
"Then, the Earth Group?"
"Alright, Earth Group."
It was unanimously approved.
So when Xie Jiaoyue started her first class, she found that she had been assigned to the Earth Group.
She bid farewell to the tearful Feng Qianqian, the furrowed brows of Xin Xiuying, and the strangely complex expression on Chu Xingjin's face, and stepped into the Earth Group alone, without any acquaintances around.
It's truly a rare sight to be among the top students in the entrance exam's geography group.
She recalled Xin Xiuying's sarcastic reminder.
"You'd better tone it down. The Earth Group is full of spoiled brats. Those spoiled brats do things recklessly. Be careful they don't get angry and send someone to beat you up."
Xie Jiaoyue didn't care at all. She had finally been admitted to the clan school and was focused on her studies. She didn't want to have much interaction with others, so there was no reason for a conflict to arise.
Even if a conflict breaks out, who can beat her?
Even if she did hire someone to beat her up, do those people have as much money as she does? Can't she hire someone herself?
Xie Jiaoyue finished her first class peacefully. During the break, she went to ask her teacher a question. When she returned, she found someone sitting in her seat.
Oh wow, someone actually is looking for trouble.
