"I knew it! Chen Shen, just like us, saw it all and remembered it!"
"If someone takes the lead in the charge, I will follow closely behind! Charge!"
The students of Xiande, especially those in Class 9, were incredibly excited and followed Chen Yi straight to the Cangyan First Canteen.
They were still holding their breath after what happened at noon.
Now that a big shot is stepping forward, they naturally have to go and support him.
Of course, some people just went there to watch the excitement...
However, Chen Yi didn't care; he just wanted to go to the cafeteria to get some spiritual food.
"Why are the people from Xiande here again?"
Some of the Cangyan students looked at the dozens of Xiande students with suspicion.
Didn't they slink away at noon?
This scene was naturally witnessed by both Xiande and Cangyan's teachers.
But such things are often overlooked in Xiande, let alone in Cangyan High School, where the school atmosphere is even more outrageous.
The teachers here not only don't interfere in student conflicts, but they're actually quite happy to add fuel to the fire...
A student from the Azure Flame Sect, at the ninth level of Qi Refining, stood on the steps at the entrance of the cafeteria and said arrogantly, "Hey, hey, hey! Wasn't it clear enough at noon?"
Hou Xiangheng and Sun Yu swallowed hard.
The two of them, one at the seventh level of Qi Refining and the other at the eighth level, were somewhat intimidated by this ninth-level Qi Refining expert.
Chen Yi, however, walked up calmly.
His aura made the arrogant Cangyan man's expression turn serious.
Qi Refining Level 10?
There are actually experts at the tenth level of Qi Refining in the Immortal Realm?
At this point in time, there are very few people in the entire Cangyan High School who have reached the tenth level of Qi Refining...
As far as they knew, apart from Yu Shun last year, the highest cultivation level Xian De had achieved in the past few years was only the ninth level of Qi Refining.
Another Qi Refining Level 10 cultivator has emerged this year?
The key issue is that Cangyan hasn't received the news yet.
"If it's the tenth level of Qi Refining, shouldn't they have received no news at all?"
The man looked somewhat hesitant.
Just then, he saw a figure with dyed blond hair and a cigarette tucked behind his ear pass by. He was immediately delighted and called out:
"Brother Bian!"
The newcomer was none other than Wang Bian, a student from Cangyan who was taking the beast-taming exam with him today.
This person is also one of the few top students at Cangyan High School who has reached the tenth level of Qi Refining.
Wang Bian lit a cigarette, and with a flick of his finger, a terrifyingly hot fireball appeared. He lit the cigarette, took a deep drag, and asked, "What happened?"
"These people from Xiande have come to our cafeteria again. At noon, we could say they came to the wrong place, but now they're probably here to cause trouble..." the man quickly explained to Wang Bian.
Upon hearing this, Wang Bian also looked at the group of Xiande people.
When he saw Chen Yi, his eyes lit up and he walked over.
Before the person even arrived, the cigarette was already offered to them.
"Dude, you did really well on the beast-taming test today!"
Chen Yi took the cigarette from the other person but did not light it.
He hadn't forgotten that this smoke could even bewitch stone goblins, so he dared not try it lightly.
He accepted it because he always felt that this cigarette was not simple and must have something unique about it that he could study.
Seeing this, Wang Bian wasn't angry. Instead, he smiled and turned to his men, saying, "This is my brother. He wants to go into the cafeteria, and you mustn't stop him!"
Chen Yi was slightly surprised; this person was actually so easy to talk to?
Just because I accepted a cigarette from him, he started calling me brother?
But no matter what, Wang Bian's influence in Cangyan was extremely exaggerated.
Those Cangyan people who had surrounded them realized something and quickly dispersed.
They were surprised to find out who Chen Yi was, that he was so highly regarded by Chen Shui-bian.
But now is not the time to think about these things; all they want to do right now is escape from the scene.
"call!"
Wang Bian blew out a thick cloud of smoke and sighed, "You guys, how many times have you tried, and you're still so slow..."
In the next instant, his figure disappeared into the smoke.
"Please, please don't come any closer!"
The scattered Azure Flame people were instantly caught up by the smoke, their cries of pleas rising and falling.
But no one responded.
A few seconds later, the smoke cleared, and Wang Bian returned to Chen Yi, saying apologetically, "Sorry, these guys are used to being arrogant and have no sense of propriety."
After saying that, he said in a nonchalant tone, "Anyone who has had cigarettes stuffed into their pockets, please leave this cafeteria. Your food rations tonight belong to Xiande's friends."
"That cigarette has the effect of calming the nerves and preventing hunger for three days after smoking it, so consider it my compensation."
Now, the Immortals understood why the Cangyan people had scattered and fled earlier.
It turns out that if you walk too slowly, you'll be stuffed with cigarettes, and if you're stuffed with cigarettes, you'll have to get out of the cafeteria.
"Tsk! Is this the school spirit of Cangyan? I'm kind of in love with it..." Hou Xiangheng teased.
Sun Yu glanced at him: "It's only because Chen Yi is strong enough that he has earned the respect of others; otherwise, we would be the ones being suppressed."
The students of Xiande who benefited from this were all deeply grateful to Chen Yi.
They were secretly glad they had come along; at least they could finally eat something good.
Chen Yi and Wang Bian sat at the same table.
This person is open-minded and generous, and Chen Yi would not mind getting to know him.
"Besides beast taming, what else did you choose?" Wang Bian asked curiously.
"Talismans".
"What a coincidence! Great minds think alike!" Wang Bian laughed heartily.
Chen Yi was surprised to find that Wang Bian had chosen the same subject as him.
Wang Bian took a drag of his cigarette and continued, "That Liu Yuetong must be studying beast control and alchemy. Their Nine Cauldrons High School is renowned for its alchemy, so we need to be careful. That woman put so much pressure on me right from the start; it almost scared me. Luckily, Brother Chen, you're quite capable too!"
"Likewise!" Chen Yi replied politely.
The two talked a lot about the upcoming joint entrance exam.
"Tonight is the talisman exam, and we might even run into each other in the same exam room."
Wang Bian stood up, preparing to leave.
As he said when he handed out cigarettes, his cigarettes contained ingredients from a fasting pill, so he didn't need to eat anything. He was just here to get to know Chen Yi.
Is this what it means for strong individuals to appreciate each other?
"You'd better be careful! My talismans are much more powerful than beast-taming spells!" Wang Bian smiled confidently.
Chen Yi returned the smile with the same response: "What a coincidence, I'm good at both!"
He was quite confident in his talismans.
After taking on a large number of orders in the days leading up to the exam, his reputation as the "Talisman Manager" had spread far and wide throughout Xiande.
Besides drawing talismans for others, he also drew more than a hundred talismans for himself.
With an astonishing number of talismans, his talisman level also increased little by little, like squeezing toothpaste, to level 2.
The entry "Writing with divine inspiration" has also been upgraded to "Writing with the power of a dragon and snake".
The current effect of this entry is: drawing speed increased by 40%, the effectiveness of the drawn talisman increased by 20%, and the consumption of talisman brush and spirit ink reduced by 10%.
Not only has the value doubled, but it also adds a feature to reduce the consumption of talisman brushes and spirit ink.
As he drew numerous talismans for people, the spiritual ink and talisman brushes also suffered wear and tear.
Now, he has very little Dan Yuan ink left, and the bristles of his century-old lightning-struck wooden talisman brush are also severely worn.
This new attribute effect makes his spirit ink and talisman brush more durable. Don't underestimate this 10%; it allows Chen Yi to save a lot of money and use resources more effectively...
"Hahaha! Then I'm even more looking forward to seeing you in the exam hall later!" Wang Bian said with a meaningful smile.
"......"
Chen Yi watched Wang Bian leave, his brows furrowed with doubt.
Why are they so sure it will be the same exam room later?
"Damn, they're finally gone!"
"It's a pity, I wanted to hear them talk a little longer..."
Only after confirming that Wang Bian had left did Sun Yu and Hou Xiangheng dare to speak.
"Don't force yourself into circles you can't fit into!" Hou Xiangheng mocked Sun Yu.
"You know nothing! I'm here to witness this historic meeting between two big shots!"
Seeing that the two were bickering again, Chen Yi shook his head and left with his tray.
......
At 7 p.m., the talisman exam officially began.
Chen Yi indeed spotted Wang Bian's signature yellow hair.
The other person gestured to him with a cigarette as a sign of respect.
He had a vague feeling that Wang Bian held an exceptionally high position in Cangyan.
The other person's words before leaving the cafeteria seemed to indicate that they were quite certain that the two of them would be in the same exam room.
Now that this has actually happened, I wonder if it's a coincidence or inevitable?
