Chapter 17 - Chapter 17: My Roommate is Yu Feng?

Gu Feng rubbed his chin, half-jokingly saying, "Whoever marries you in the future would instantly turn from a poor peasant to a singing lord, directly reaching the pinnacle of life!"

Hearing this, Ye Lingling's heart couldn't help but beat a little faster, her ears slightly reddening as she softly replied, "It's not as good as you make it sound."

Suddenly, as if mustering all her courage, she turned around abruptly, her watery eyes directly meeting Gu Feng's: "About last time... really, thank you."

After saying this, her cheeks burned, and she couldn't stay any longer. Her steps unconsciously quickened, and she fled the scene like a startled deer.

Seeing this, Gu Feng didn't chase after her but chose to wander around the academy on his own.

It must be said, the Heaven Dou Royal Academy truly lived up to its reputation as the most luxurious academy on the continent, with all its facilities top-notch.

Just from a brief stroll, Gu Feng could see five or six simulated cultivation environments.

If one considers companions, wealth, and location as essentials for cultivation,

then this place was the perfect "location" for a Soul Master's cultivation.

After a short walk around the academy, Gu Feng headed towards the dormitory area.

As a new student, Gu Feng was classified as a Celestial Micro level student, so naturally, he didn't have his own room but was assigned to a double room, which was barely acceptable.

After collecting the dormitory key from the dorm manager, Gu Feng arrived at the dormitory building.

Looking at the number 401 on the doorplate and confirming it was correct, Gu Feng intended to use the key to open the door.

But surprisingly, the door opened with just a gentle push.

Gu Feng walked straight into the dormitory and caught a faint, fresh scent accompanied by the sound of running water.

Someone was taking a shower?

Hearing this, he frowned slightly. Could his roommate have arrived at the academy early?

Gu Feng walked towards the bathroom and tentatively called out, "Hello, I'm Gu Feng. Are you my roommate?"

At the sound of his voice, the running water in the bathroom suddenly stopped, followed by a moment of silence, and then a sharp scream: "Ah!!!"

Immediately after, an angry and embarrassed voice came through: "Get out!"

Gu Feng couldn't help but frown and pout, "Alright, alright, I'm leaving. We're both guys, what's there to hide?"

He could understand not wanting another man around while showering. After all, in his previous life, he was from Chengdu, where in public baths, he wouldn't even dare to bend over to pick up soap.

But here, with a bathroom door between them, was such a reaction really necessary?

Inside the bathroom, steam filled the air like a thin veil.

Yu Feng's fair cheeks were tinged with a faint blush from embarrassment and nervousness, as she tightly wrapped a towel around her petite figure.

Only when she heard Gu Feng's footsteps gradually fade away did she finally relax, biting her lower lip slightly: "I guess I'll have to be more careful when showering from now on. But even so, I'm not going back."

"Hmph, Grandpa, I will prove to you that our Speed Clan is not incapable of combat."

Soon, Yu Feng changed her clothes and stepped out of the bathroom.

Gu Feng also got to see his roommate: short golden hair, a fair and bright complexion, with a somewhat delicate beauty.

A feminine-looking guy?

That was Gu Feng's first impression.

Yu Feng looked at Gu Feng with a hint of resentment: "Hey, are you my roommate? What level is your Soul Power?"

She swore that if the guy in front of her had a lower level than her, she would definitely make him experience the "care" of a dorm leader.

"Right, my name is Gu Feng, Soul Power level 14."

"How much?"

"14, why?"

"Nothing, it's fine."

Yu Feng bit her lip, and her "care plan" instantly vanished. She never expected this seemingly ordinary guy to be so strong.

Grandpa was right—the outside world is indeed full of hidden talents.

"By the way, what's your name?"

"Just call me Yu Feng."

Hearing this name, Gu Feng mulled it over in his mouth and suddenly remembered.

Yu Feng?

Isn't she the Agility Attack Soul Master from the Royal Fight Team?

Looks like his luck is pretty good. Both of the classmates he just met this year are from the Royal Fight Team.

After tidying up his bed, Gu Feng lay down comfortably, ready to take a nice rest.

He had been on the move every day these past few days, and it had nearly exhausted him.

Seeing him fall asleep so soundly, Yu Feng couldn't help but feel speechless.

Is her future roommate really a pig?

Sleeping in so early after just starting school?

Whatever, she'd leave him be. There were no classes today anyway, so she could go familiarize herself with the academy.

With that in mind, Yu Feng turned and walked out of the dorm.

She wandered around until late afternoon, then hurried back to the dorm to grab her meal card. But when she pushed open the door,

she found that Gu Feng was still asleep.

Out of kindness, Yu Feng reminded him, "Hey, it's dinner time. Aren't you going to the cafeteria, Gu Feng?"

"Huh?"

Hearing the noise, Gu Feng slowly woke up, rubbing his sleepy eyes and yawning as he sat up. "Let's go. I've been so tired these past few days."

Tired?

School just started. What's there to be tired about?

Yu Feng pursed her lips, wanting to complain, but considering his strength, she ultimately said nothing.

...

The cafeteria of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy was as luxurious as the most upscale Seven Treasure Hotel in the Heaven Dou Empire. Located in the northwest corner of the academy, it was divided into three levels.

As the two walked into the cafeteria, Yu Feng was immediately stunned by the sight before her.

She never expected a cafeteria to be almost as large as the territory of her Agility Clan.

"Come on, why are you spacing out?"

Gu Feng's voice snapped Yu Feng out of her daze.

Yu Feng turned her head, looking at Gu Feng's calm expression, as if he was completely unfazed by everything in front of him. She couldn't help but ask curiously, "Gu Feng, aren't you surprised?"

"What's there to be surprised about? Let's go eat. I'm starving."

Gu Feng had seen cafeterias several times larger than this in the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.

Seeing Gu Feng head to the second floor, Yu Feng glanced at the array of dishes on the first floor, swallowed her saliva, and followed him.

After all, given the conditions of her Agility Clan, she hadn't eaten anything particularly fancy.

At this point, if she wanted to maximize her cultivation needs,

she'd have to follow someone who knew how to eat.

Gu Feng simply picked some food, all of which was Soul Beast Meat.

Yu Feng had a smaller appetite. Although she also chose Soul Beast Meat, she only picked one dish—Blazing Yak Meat—since the prices on the menu were somewhat heartbreaking.

After all, even her tuition had been borrowed from Yang Wudi.

In the cafeteria of the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, the line in front of the food service window was bustling with people, yet the efficiency of meal distribution was remarkably high.

In just a short while, Gu Feng emerged from the queue, carrying a steaming plate of food. His gaze swept across the spacious cafeteria.

Suddenly, he noticed a familiar figure sitting alone in the corner, quiet and seemingly a bit lonely.
