Chapter 2566 - Untitled

Mu Qianqian had hung out with Sun Jingyu long enough to know her well. There was no need for Sun Jingyu to lie about it. Moreover, she had turned down Wang Junwen so decisively.

“What about Junwen…”

Meanwhile, Feng Wu was calculating her points.

Before the event, she had just 10 points left. Their team won first place, so each team member was given 100 points. Being the MVP, she earned an extra 100 points.

Therefore, she had 210 points.

Chaoge had 110 points.

Feng Wu took Chaoge and Zi Ling to the school canteen.

According to Zi Ling, all the ingredients used in the dishes in the canteen came from magical beasts of the Thousand Night Forest. Having a meal there increased one’s spiritual essence a little, and was beneficial to one’s cultivation.

The canteen was divided into two sections: ready-to-eat and stir-fry.

Ready-to-eat dishes were already cooked, and one only had to line up to put the food on their tray.

However, it was common knowledge that these types of dishes weren’t the best in terms of quality.

Stir-fry dishes were different because one could order them with specific ingredients. Such dishes ensured that the spiritual essence in the ingredients could be retained at the highest level.

Zi Ling led Feng Wu and Chaoge to the queue and suggested, “Shall we have four dishes? We came in first. We must celebrate.”

Four dishes were considered a celebration? Chaoge asked curiously, “What do you usually eat, then?”

Zi Ling said, “Vegetables poured over rice. It’s quite tasty.”

Chaoge was speechless.

She went to the front of the line to take a look at the ready-to-eat dishes, and when she came back, she said, “They don’t look that tasty to me. Plus, they’ve been sitting there for so long that there’s hardly any spiritual essence left.”

Zi Ling said, “But it’s good enough for us. We can’t afford the stir-fry dishes…”

Chaoge said, “I see that with the ready-to-eat dishes, meat dishes cost 5 points, vegetable dishes 3 points, and rice one point.”

Zi Ling nodded. “It’s so expensive, and many of us can’t afford them. We can only order one portion of rice and wash it down with the free soup. That’s the only way we can sustain ourselves.”

Chaoge asked, “Why are you so broke? Xiao Wu and I only just got here, and we already have over 100 points.”

Zi Ling looked at her in resignation. “That’s because our team was first, and only the top team can earn 100 points. The lower the ranking, the fewer points a team will earn. Teams ranked below 200 can’t earn any points at all. That’s how difficult it is to earn points. I’m the lucky one. I joined your team and earned the extra points.”

“You guys stay in the line. I’ll get us some soup,” Zi Ling was going to fetch the free soup.

“Isn’t it Zi Ling? What a coincidence. Are you here for the free soup again?” It was Zhen Ya’s voice.

Zhen Ya was Lu Xiao’s current girlfriend, and she had never tried to hide her resentment toward Zi Ling.

Zi Ling’s cheeks flushed with anger. She turned around and ignored Zhen Ya.

But Zhen Ya didn’t walk away. She was the type of girl who always clung to her boyfriend.

She looked at Zi Ling, Feng Wu, and Chaoge with contempt.

Lu Xiao had always felt guilty about leaving Zi Ling, so he lowered his voice and asked, “Zi Ling, why don’t you join us?”

Hearing that, Zhen Ya glared at Zi Ling.

Zi Ling had an indescribable look in her eyes when she shook her head at him. “That won’t be necessary. Please leave.”
