Chapter 22: Turbulence in the Dining Hall

  Just as they were eating, the twin sisters suddenly changed their expressions.

  Turning sideways, slightly lowering her head, as if unwilling to see something, hiding.

  Xiao Chen sat opposite them, and upon seeing this, he turned his head to look back, only to see a few students wearing the school uniform of an external institute walking over, with one boy and one girl at the front.

  The first female student looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old, roughly the same age as Xiao Chen. She had a head of light yellow long hair, a narrow face, and an arrogant expression in her eyes. Her figure was quite good, with a prominent front and back, and she swayed as she walked, attracting the attention of many male students.

  Moreover, this woman's body was adorned with pearls and treasures. Whether it was her ears, neck, wrists, or fingers, they were all decorated with sparkling magical accessories. She had four glittering rings on her hand alone, and the light of the magic gemstones flickered constantly. The small wand she grasped in her hand was even more luxurious, with gold inlays and a circle of diamonds surrounding a large dragon eye gemstone at its center. The magical patterns swirling around it were so extravagant that they intimidated many students, making them feel inferior and not daring to approach.

  The woman's gaze wandered, originally careless and seemingly ignoring everyone. At this time, a student following behind her whispered something in her ear, she suddenly paused, her eyes scanning over, as if discovering something interesting.

  Tap tap tap, wearing high-heeled boots, she walked quickly towards this direction.

  "Xue Wei Xue Rui, so you guys are here too, what a coincidence, it's really too coincidental." The woman was straightforward and blunt, plopping herself down beside Xiao Chen and the others.

  The canteen of the foreign language institute has long tables that are over 20 meters in length and can seat many people.

  Xiao Chen and his two companions deliberately chose a remote table. Except for them, there were only two other students at the table, separated by several meters.

  As they walked over, one of the followers who was trailing behind the female student jumped out and tossed a small bag of gold coins, shouting at the two students: "You two, move aside, go to another table. This table has been reserved by our Lord Silvia, Baron of Narro Kingdom."

  His tone was as arrogant as if he were shooing away flies.

  Those two students' faces changed, basically all the ones who can enter Tianxing Academy are noble children, each and every one of them is arrogant, outside they are objects of flattery, where have they ever suffered such humiliation, at that time they wanted to erupt.

  But one of them, seeing Celia, looked ugly and pulled his companion, saying in a low voice: "Forget it, this Celia is from the Naruo Kingdom, her father is said to be the Minister of Finance of the Naruo Kingdom, with great power, we can't afford to offend."

  The Naro Kingdom is a third-rate civilization, second only to the Tianxing Empire, and also one of the top kingdoms in this region. In the academy, people from high-ranking civilizations and low-ranking civilizations naturally have differences in status.

  Two students left silently.

  That small bag of gold coins was left behind, of course. Celia's followers watched them leave, picked up the bag of money and spat: "Ungrateful."

  Behind Celia, a group of people, with a rustling sound, seven or eight people from the Naruo Kingdom sat down, occupying the entire table.

  Among them, the boy who was standing beside Celia earlier, wearing a white robe, with a handsome face and skin as white as jade, flawless, and of uncommon temperament. He had no long objects on him, but the four copper stars on his right chest already proved his identity. He was undoubtedly a four-star mage, an intermediate mage, and in this primary magic department's cafeteria, he was undoubtedly the center of attention, the object of everyone's gaze.

  He saw Cecilia's group of followers' attitude and his mouth curled up, revealing a faint disdain.

  His expression flashed and passed, his gaze fell on the twin sisters, one of whom was stunned, seemingly thinking of something, showing a strong interest.

  Seeing the twins ignoring her, a hint of anger flashed in Celia's eyes, and then she hummed softly, summoning the dining hall attendant.

  She took over the menu and smiled at the white-robed boy: "Brother Fatte, what do you want to eat? Let me order for you."

  "Oh, I'm easy-going, you decide." Gofar smiled faintly.

  "Alright, I'll order then." Cecilia fiddled with her handkerchief and carefully flipped through the somewhat outdated menu, as if it were poisonous. After flipping through a few pages, she became impatient and furrowed her brow, directly turning to the last page and saying to the attendant, "You, bring all of these dishes, one of each."

  "Everything." The attendant was taken aback.

  The last page, those are all the most expensive dishes in the restaurant, a total of twenty or so precious delicacies, at least worth over a thousand gold coins.

  "Hurry up and go, are you afraid that our Lady Celia can't afford the bill?" a follower shouted.

  "Alright, alright. You wait a moment." The attendant hastily retreated.

  After a while, one after another, the most sumptuous and rare delicacies were served, including Golden Blood Swallow's tongue, Star Ocean White Shark's braised fish fin, Red-striped Raccoon Dog's steamed bear paw, and Marsh Mire Wolf's red pepper wolf ribs...

  One kind, one stroke, almost all are obtained from the bodies of rare and ferocious beasts.

  These are all high-end jobs that can be captured by mid-to-high-level professionals, and their value is naturally extremely expensive.

  At the same table, compared to Celia's ordered dishes, Xiao Chen and others' food was much "simpler", just four or five ordinary dishes, which cost only a dozen gold coins.

  A dozen or so gold coins, which isn't a small amount, is enough for an ordinary family to live on for a year in some poor and low-level civilizations, but these dishes are far inferior compared to Celia's exquisite cuisine.

  "Xuewei, Xuerui, look at what you're eating. Tsk, tsk, this dish is something that even dogs wouldn't eat in our house. Come on, don't say that Sister Celia doesn't take care of you, we're classmates, come over and eat together, I have plenty of food here." Celia said "generously", but her words were venomous.

  Not even dogs would eat it?

  "You..." Xue Wei Xue Hua was still young after all, and got so angry that her eyes welled up with tears.

  That white-robed young man, Ge Falei slightly furrowed his brow and said lightly: "Xilia, you can't say that. I think these dishes are not bad."

  He suddenly stood up, walked a few steps, and arrived at the twin sisters' side.

  Smiling, "Hello, I'm Gofar Nadal from the Kingdom of Koffa. You must be Xue Wei and Xue Wu, the renowned twin sisters with the Double Body Technique. Your names are well-known in our Intermediate Magic Department. Mind if I join you? The food here looks great, how about we combine tables?"

  Kefah Kingdom is also a third-level civilization, and Nadal is even the surname of the Kefah Kingdom royal family.

  His identity was actually so noble, even more noble than Cecilia's.

  Moreover, he is polite and elegant, with a noble temperament, making any girl's heart skip a beat at first sight, the embodiment of a dream lover.

  Ge Fa Te smiled calmly and confidently, his eyes warm like sunshine, gazing at the twin sisters, steady and in control.

  At this time, when a girl is in trouble and insulted, appearing to rescue her can quickly plant the seeds of a good impression.

  "What?"

  Cecilia was thoroughly fed up.

  His face turned iron-green and twisted, never thought Gofrette would be so uncooperative.

  Although Thalia's family is not as good as the royal family of Gofate, Thalia is the only daughter of the Minister of Finance, and her family has a great deal of power, controlling the economic lifeline of a third-level civilization. You, Gofate, are just a prince from a collateral branch of the royal family, yet you dare to be so disrespectful.

  Such insults were really unbearable, and Cecilia was about to lose her temper.

  Xiao Chen, who had been quietly standing by without a word, suddenly smiled with the corners of his mouth raised and his eyes shining as he stood up.
