Chapter 340: Cafeteria Situation
Two and a half hours later, the long and boring opening ceremony finally ended.
According to the procedures, the various branches would organize their own opening ceremony in the afternoon.
The Martial Arts Branch was different from the other branches of Star Cloud Academy in this aspect. Unlike the other branches, who still held a formal gathering, they had already announced a day in advance that they would announce an important decision at the opening ceremony according to the results of the entrance examination.
As for what the content was, it was not stated clearly, causing many new students to guess.
âIâve asked around. In the past, every time the Martial Arts Branch opened, they would roughly divide the new students into groups and carry out different education training. However, this is different every time. I donât know what it is exactly.â
After the opening ceremony ended, because it was already noon, Chu Nan and the other three arranged to eat in the canteen of the Martial Arts Branch.
On the way, Mondeo, who called himself a know-it-all, told the other three something related to the Star Cloud Academyâs Martial Arts Branch, including the opening ceremony in the afternoon.
âHowever, Iâm certain of one thing.â Mondeo suddenly straightened his face and said with a serious expression, âThe results of the entrance examination are very useful. It will determine the treatment of new students in the grouping. The better the results, the better they can enjoy the grouping. At the same time, they can obtain more teachersâ careful guidance.â
After saying that, Mondeo, Saar, and Tanaka Iyoko looked at Chu Nan.
He was ranked eighth in the entrance examination and could be at the top of the 300 new students.
If the students ranked at the front would receive preferential treatment, Chu Nan would undoubtedly be one of them.
Seeing their expressions, Chu Nan shook his head.
Although the eighth place was already very high, his goal was to learn the Arhat Overlord Golden Body.
This was the precious treasure of the Star Cloud Academyâs Martial Arts Branch. It was impossible to easily take it out to impart.
Even Rudy Karl, who had obtained the first place in the entrance examination, might not be able to learn it, let alone him, the eighth place.
âRight, while asking about this information, I also asked about Leonardo.â Mondeo hesitated for a moment before continuing with a serious expression, âLeonardo entered Star Cloud Academy two years ago and is very famous in the upper grade, especially popular with the girls. You saw it yesterdayâŠâ
âGet to the point,â Saar interrupted impatiently. âHow strong is that guy?â
âCough⊠about that, Leonardo is ranked in the top ten experts of the academy. Although heâs only ranked tenth, he already broke through the Cosmic Heavenâs Gate last year. His current strength has probably already reached the level of a second-stage or even third-stage Void Break Martial ArtistâŠâ
Saar and Tanaka Iyoko looked at Chu Nan again.
Chu Nan shrugged, âAlright, I understand. If heâs a Void Break expert, I shouldnât be able to defeat him. You donât have to have any expectations.â
Now even Mondeo had nothing to say.
It could not be helped. The Cosmic Heavenâs Gate was a huge obstacle in front of the martial artists.
Only martial artists who could break through the Cosmic Heavenâs Gate could truly leave the category of ordinary people and become powerful martial artists who could go anywhere.
Even an initial-stage Void Break Martial Artist could easily defeat any fifth-stage Internal Breath Martial Artist.
Although Chu Nan was very powerful and could defeat ordinary fifth-stage Internal Breath Martial Artists, it was impossible for him to be the match of a Void Break Martial Artist, even if the other party was only an initial-stage Void Break Martial Artist.
âActually, thereâs nothing to worry about.â Saar patted Chu Nanâs shoulder and comforted him, âIn any case, itâs not a life and death battle. Itâs only a spar. Leonardo wonât go overboard in front of so many people. Moreover, heâs a Void Break Martial Artist and youâre only at the Internal Breath Realm. Thereâs nothing shameful about losing to him.â
He did not feel ashamed or not. Instead, he felt relieved.
This Leonardo was ranked tenth in the so-called top ten experts of the academy. He had the strength of a second-stage or even third-stage Void Break Martial Artist. Only then did he meet his expectations of Star Cloud Academy.
If the tenth expert could not even break through the Cosmic Heavenâs Gate, Chu Nan would definitely regret coming to Star Cloud Academy.
The four of them chatted as they walked and soon walked into the canteen.
As soon as he entered, Mondeo pointed in the middle of the cafeteria.
âLook, itâs Rudy Karl.â
Chu Nan looked in the direction he pointed and indeed, he saw Rudy Karl surrounded by a group of people like a moon surrounded by stars.
As a new student who had obtained the first place in the entrance examination, it was natural for him to be pursued.
Perhaps because he felt Chu Nanâs gaze, Rudy Karl suddenly turned around and nodded at him through the gap in the crowd with a smile.
âEh? Chu Nan, you know him?â Rudy Karl looked over and asked when he attracted the attention of the other three.
âI donât really know him. Iâve only⊠seen him once.â The corners of Chu Nanâs mouth twitched as he replied.
The meeting with Rudy Karl was definitely not pleasant. There was no need to say anything here.
âHey, look over there. Isnât that Feng Mingxi?â Mondeo suddenly pointed at another corner of the canteen and shouted.
Looking in the direction he pointed, he indeed saw Feng Mingxi and another young man who was about the same age as him occupying a table. The surroundings were not filled with people like Rudy Karl. Instead, everyone stayed far away, as if there was an aura around him that prevented strangers from entering.
âHeh, this guy dropped the ball in the end during the entrance test. He must be very unhappy now, but no one will look for trouble with him at this time.â There was a trace of schadenfreude in Mondeoâs laughter, âChu Nan, do you want to go greet him? Youâre just one rank higher than him.â
Chu Nan rolled his eyes at him. âAm I that bored?â
After saying that, he ignored Mondeo and swept his gaze across the canteen, planning to find an empty seat to sit down.
With this look, he immediately saw an area that was a little incompatible with the surrounding environment.
Now, the canteen was gathered with the new students of the Martial Arts Branch who had come to eat. There were nearly 300 people, filling the entire canteen to the brim. There was a commotion everywhere.
In such an atmosphere, two places were different and seemed very cold.
One of the places was naturally the table that Feng Mingxi and his companion had occupied.
On the other hand, only one person occupied a table alone. There was no one around.
When he saw that person, Chu Nan smiled and walked over before sitting opposite her.
âHey, you performed so perfectly at the ceremony just now. No one came to hit on you?â
