The Invisible Class, Su Nianyi

Zhou Yibai's return aroused the curiosity of many classmates.

But after asking around and finding out that this guy had a legitimate reason for staying in class to show off, everyone around him rolled their eyes and left.

Not long after,

The noon bell rang.

As usual, Li Xijun was led by Zhou Yibai around the women who were holding hands and blocking the stairwell, and walked towards the cafeteria.

"My brother's treating today, so eat as much as you like, Brother Li."

"Huh? Didn't they say that even students in the elite class are subject to purchase limits?" Li Xijun asked.

"That's what the school rules say, but in reality, the meal packages on the second floor are ridiculously expensive. A single meal can cost several thousand dollars per person. Not all students in the elite class come from wealthy families, so how could they possibly eat there every day? With my brother's connections, borrowing an ID or something is a piece of cake."

At this point, Zhou Yibai felt honored.

Li Xijun didn't say anything more, but just listened to the other party's boasting and bragging as always.

When Zhou Yibai reached the stairs of the cafeteria, he was visibly excited, as if he had stepped onto a ladder to the top. Every few steps, he would turn around and look at the students eating downstairs.

This made Li Xijun, who always prided herself on having a good mood, feel somewhat embarrassed.

After somewhat dawdling as he walked up to the second floor, Zhou Yibai looked around at his surroundings and carefully examined them.

Li Xijun was also curious about the legendary second floor, but after a quick glance, she felt that the layout was no different from the grand restaurant in her previous life.

It's just that there are no more food windows and shaky-handed aunties; instead, the food is served like in a restaurant.

The dining tables and chairs were replaced with more upscale antique-style wooden ones, and the tables and chairs were spaced further apart from each other.

If we're talking about something special, it's that the area around the walls with windows has been transformed into several antique-style private rooms, just like in ancient dramas. All the tableware also looks antique and high-end, and there are incense burners, tea sets, and even a platform reminiscent of ancient restaurants, where an elderly man dressed in ancient style is tuning and playing the guqin.

"I've heard that the cultivation of the third realm of artistic conception depends heavily on one's mental state and state of mind. Ancient practices such as tea ceremony, calligraphy, and playing the zither before the Great Cataclysm can all aid in comprehension. In university, you can see many people who dress, behave, and live like people from ancient times. That's why many students in the elite class start learning this early on."

Zhou Yibai gave Li Xijun a popular science-style explanation of the knowledge he had heard from his uncle.

At the same time, he glanced at his phone and saw the room number sent by his cousin. He walked ahead and went straight into the antique-style private room.

The private room wasn't very big; it just had one table and four chairs, two of which were already occupied.

The boy was Zhou Shenghao, who was good-looking and wearing a black nano-integrated suit.

The girl was also wearing a nano-integrated garment, but with a white and blue Hanfu over it, giving her a gentle and approachable look reminiscent of an ancient fairy.

Upon seeing Zhou Yibai arrive with his entourage, Zhou Shenghao clapped his hands. Soon, someone entered the ancient-style private room, lit incense in the incense burner, and a musician outside began to play music. Then, waiters dressed in ancient costumes served dishes one after another.

After everything was completed, Zhou Yibai, feeling like he had really impressed his friends, began to introduce himself:

"Let me introduce you. This is my brother, Zhou Shenghao, and this is Liu Yunmeng, who is a family friend of mine. They are both from the elite class."

"This is Li Xijun, a friend I often eat and go home with."

Since she was there to get the free nutritional supplement package, Li Xijun took the initiative to greet her.

However, Zhou Shenghao remained indifferent, merely nodding slightly before turning his gaze to the chat interface in Liu Yunmeng's hand.

Liu Yunmeng responded with a smile, displaying the manners and demeanor of a young lady from a prestigious family. However, she was still just a high school student, and a sense of aloofness inevitably showed in her words and expressions.

"Hehe, then I'll eat first."

Zhou Yibai thought the meeting was a success, so he took the initiative to talk to Zhou Shenghao and started eating.

Li Xijun was very clear about his position. He was just there to freeload off Zhou Yi, so he simply kept quiet and silently experienced the effects of the nutritional supplements.

In fact, the food in these nutritional supplement packages does live up to its price.

Each grain of spirit rice has a delicate fragrance, and the meat of the mythical creature is exceptionally tempting. It quickly melts into a rich, flavorful broth in the mouth, requiring almost no digestion as its energy is gently absorbed by the body.

This was the first time Li Xijun had felt a satisfying feeling of fullness since taking the qi and blood tonic.

This made him think that if he could have this level of dietary supplements every day, in addition to the daily medicinal baths and qi and blood tonics, his qi and blood improvement rate would definitely be 30% faster.

The nutritional meal set was quickly finished, and then several tea snacks were served.

A notification popped up on Liu Yunmeng's phone chat screen, indicating she was receiving special attention.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Shenghao finally showed a delighted expression and took out a package of tea that was wrapped in three layers and placed in a high-end small box.

"This is a spirit-nourishing tea that Xiao Zhou brought from home. Although it's not the legendary treasure that increases mental strength, it still has a valuable effect of nourishing the spirit. Even a third-realm martial artist would be willing to exchange resources for it."

"It took a lot of effort to get Nianyi to come over for tea, and he only took this out of his house after all."

Liu Yunmeng's way of speaking had the feel of a little girl imitating her family members, but Li Xijun immediately understood what she meant.

My cousin was promoted to the elite class, and he brought a friend over. It's no big deal to treat him to a meal.

However, something as precious as nourishing tea is not something I can share with you.

"I also feel my blood and energy are very active, so I think I'm about to break through. I'll be going now."

Li Xijun saw it clearly, got up and left, and casually told the truth.

However, none of the three people here cared.

Even after Li Xijun left, Zhou Shenghao's somewhat impatient voice could still be heard:

"Now that you're in the elite class, listen more, observe more, and talk less. Try to make friends with people like Ye Liuyun who are among the top students in the grade, and stop engaging in meaningless social interactions."

"Oh, I see. Anyway, I'll only be in the classroom for another afternoon, and we won't have any more contact after that."

Zhou Yibai subconsciously followed his cousin's advice and readily agreed.

After his enlightenment, Li Xijun, whose five senses were heightened, heard everything clearly, but he didn't feel any urge to "don't underestimate a young man's potential."

There's no need to rush to fit into different circles.

As he walked down the stairs, he wondered to himself that since the Great Sheng World had medicinal baths and qi-blood tonics, it should also have something similar to a dietary supplement package, right?

If students can't afford the school's supplementary meal plan, how could they not afford it at Dasheng World?

Just as he was thinking this, he saw a girl with long purple hair, dressed in a dark purple silk robe, climbing the steps.

This hair color isn't strange at all. After the Great Cataclysm, the geographical environment changed drastically, causing many people from the Western Federation of the Federation with blond hair and blue eyes to experience changes in their eye color. Later, due to the influence of consuming many resources from the mythical world, many martial artists experienced changes in their hair color, and these changes were passed down to them.

However, when the girl's gaze met Li Xijun's eyes...

It's like a man staring at a tiger.

His mental state, however, was one of instinctive, sudden entry into a state of "bullet time" of spiritual perception, with a dazzling luster flowing through his iris like stars.

With time slowed down, he saw the girl opposite him looking thoughtful.
