Chapter 16 Eat More to Grow Stronger, I'm Too Full
After this practical lesson, a class monitor was also elected.
Originally, according to the level of soul power, the class monitor should have been Bai Ran.
Unfortunately, he was merely a support-type Soul Master with "very weak combat power."
Because it only possesses support abilities, its strength is insufficient to convince the masses. (The White Flag Myriad Soul Banner's abilities have not been demonstrated, and there's no need to demonstrate them for the time being.)
Therefore, the position of class monitor naturally fell to Yu Tianheng.
Having become class monitor, Yu Tianheng felt he was now the leader of the class.
I'm in a very good mood.
As soon as get out of class ended at noon, he took Dugu Yan's little hand and said he would take her to the cafeteria for a good meal at noon.
"Oh dear, Tianheng, I still want to be with Lingling."
Faced with Yu Tianheng's proactive behavior in front of so many people, Dugu Yan was genuinely a little shy.
"Yanyan, are you sure?"
As Yu Tianheng spoke, he pointed with some surprise at two figures walking towards the dining hall not far away.
"What's wrong?"
Dugu Yan had no idea what had happened.
So they looked in the direction Yu Tianheng was pointing.
A tall man and a short woman were walking hand in hand.
"Lingling seems so quiet and gentle, but I never expected her to have so many little schemes."
"Hmph, Tianheng, I'm going to eat the meat of a thousand-year-old soul beast for lunch."
Yu Tianheng: Luckily, I'm a third-generation cultivator, so eating a thousand-year-old soul beast's meat is nothing to me.
……
Do you all think that Bai Ran and Ye Lingling are dating?
In fact, the scene looks like this—
"get out of class is almost over, wanna go eat, Xiao Bairan?"
"That's not a good idea, Ye Lingling."
"What's wrong with that? There's nothing to do sitting here anyway, so we might as well go to the cafeteria early and save a seat."
Bai Ran: For some reason, I have a feeling that the last class in high school was physical education.
"Ye Lingling, it's not right for you to be holding my hand."
"I'm afraid you'll get lost. The academy is so big, it's easy to get lost."
"Oh, okay."
Bai Ran: I don't believe you for a second.
Is the girl's hand small and soft?
Bai Ran said that now that he has a child's body, his little hands are even softer than Ye Lingling's.
If you really have to put it that way, it was the teenage girl taking advantage of this innocent little boy.
In the college cafeteria
Today at noon, we'll be serving pork knuckle from the Thousand-Year Soul Beast – the Violent Wild Boar.
The pork knuckle, along with various spices, has been simmering for a whole morning.
The aroma, even just a few whiffs, seems to be enough to make you devour several mouthfuls of rice.
Of course, the price is also quite extravagant, at 499 gold soul coins per serving.
It's fair to say that even an ordinary Soul Emperor-level Soul Master would feel the pinch for days after eating this dish.
For Bai Ran, it wasn't a big deal.
He could just swipe Uncle Feng's meal card; even if he ate thousand-year-old soul beast meat for every meal, then...
Forget it then. Uncle Feng has been so good to him, he can't be shameless and consume most of the resources a high-level Soul Saint uses for cultivation.
"Little Bai Ran, what kind of family do you come from?"
Having found a good spot, Ye Lingling looked at Bai Ran, who had brought over the meat of a thousand-year-old soul beast, and couldn't help but complain.
The limited supply of thousand-year-old soul beast meat in the cafeteria is quite valuable, and it is usually provided to the faculty within the academy.
After all, they are a group of Soul Master students at level 20 or 30 at most. If they eat a resource like the meat of a thousand-year-old Soul Beast, most of the energy would probably be wasted because they would not be able to absorb it.
Students like them can usually eat the meat of soul beasts that are ten or a hundred years old.
Moreover, unlike the expensive meat of thousand-year-old soul beasts, ten-year and hundred-year-old soul beasts are more common and therefore cheaper. Generally, ten gold soul coins can buy a boxed meal made from ten-year and hundred-year-old soul beasts.
The boxed lunch usually contains three dishes and a soup. For example, today's boxed lunch includes braised bamboo shoots made with century-old sword bamboo shoots, spicy rabbit meat made with ten-year-old soft-boned rabbit, stir-fried mutton made with ten-year-old rock sheep, and vegetable soup made with century-old plant-type soul beasts.
"I'm just an ordinary family."
Bai Ran stated that he didn't have any special background.
Ye Lingling rolled her eyes at this, indicating that she didn't believe Bai Ran's nonsense.
Ye Lingling: If you are from an ordinary family, then what am I? A struggling poor person at the bottom of society?
"Ye Lingling, what do you mean by this?"
Besides, the child is still young; what's wrong with him eating more to grow?
As Bai Ran spoke, he sat down and picked up a piece of pork knuckle skin with his chopsticks.
As the old saying goes, when eating braised pork knuckle, you must first cut off a piece of pork knuckle skin.
Mmm, the soft and chewy texture is really nice.
The meat of this thousand-year-old ferocious wild boar is even more effective for fire-attribute soul masters.
But for Bai Ran, as long as it tastes good, that's all that matters.
Moreover, perhaps due to special treatment with soul power, the meat of this ferocious wild boar had absolutely no gamey or foul smell.
A few minutes later, after eating another piece of pork knuckle,
Bai Ran felt full, which meant she couldn't eat anymore.
"Little Bai Ran, why aren't you eating?"
Seeing Bai Ran holding chopsticks and not moving for a long time, Ye Lingling asked knowingly.
Ye Lingling: I remember a little boy saying that he was growing so fast that he could eat a whole cow.
"I, I just..."
Oh, right, Uncle Feng hasn't eaten yet. I'll pack some to take back for him.
Seeing that the pork knuckle had hardly been touched, Bai Ran was not going to waste it.
Besides, this braised pork knuckle is incredibly delicious and must be tried; it must be sent to Uncle Feng.
Ye Lingling was speechless for a moment.
Teacher Feng is truly blessed to have a nephew like you.
……
"Oh dear, Leng Leng, what are you doing here?"
And Lingling, I didn't recognize her. I remember you said you wouldn't date during your school years.
Dugu Yan, arm in arm with Yu Tianheng, finally found Ye Lingling's location.
Seeing her chatting happily with her new classmate Bai Ran, she couldn't help but feel a little envious.
You know, I've known Ye Lingling for so many years, and she's always been so cold and aloof.
She rarely gives boys a friendly look.
Dugu Yan even began to suspect that her best friend might have androphobia.
"Yanyan, what are you saying! I didn't say anything."
Compared to Ye Lingling, who had already started to blush and feel shy.
Bai Ran, on the other hand, showed no emotional fluctuation whatsoever.
Just kidding, he's only nine years old. What kind of emotional feedback do you expect from a kid?
Besides, he's not like Tang San, that greasy middle-aged man who blushes and gets excited at the sight of a six-year-old girl.
Furthermore, the Empire has a relatively comprehensive criminal law regarding the abduction of minors. (Any evil will be brought to justice.)
"Would you two like to sit down and have something to eat together?"
Bai Ran looked at Dugu Yan and Yu Tianheng, who were standing there, and asked.
"Okay, okay."
Dugu Yan didn't stand on ceremony and sat down directly next to Ye Lingling.
While eating, he said:
"The braised pork knuckle of this fierce wild boar is really delicious. Tianheng, you really are something, taking your time to walk over here."
Thank goodness for my Lingling, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to eat this delicious thousand-year-old soul beast meat for lunch.
Yu Tianheng seemed slightly aggrieved by this.
You said there was no rush, you could take your time strolling over, but now that you haven't bought any food, you're blaming me again.
Hmph, you really have double standards.
Dugu Yan: I want to stroll over slowly ≠ I can actually walk over slowly without waiting for the mother to finish in seconds.
