A group of people arrived at the restaurant.

Halfway through the meal, Wang Ye left the scene, and the atmosphere suddenly became livelier.

"Congratulations to our boss Jiang for his great power! Let's drink to the boss!"

"To the boss!"

"Thank you, boss!"

Under Zhou Kun's lead, everyone raised their drinks and toasted.

Originally, some of them were still a little unconvinced by Jiang Li.

But now, they wished they could all go back to school and buy a set of "IJIANG" fan merchandise.

"Ah, it's a pity that this competition didn't have a public ranking. Otherwise, my brother Jiang's name would have surely resounded globally."

"Yeah, what 'Five Great Institutes,' what 'Dao Child,' in front of my brother Jiang, they're all nothing!"

As the group chatted and drank, the atmosphere was exceptionally lively.

"Bang!" The door was suddenly kicked open.

"I can't pretend I didn't hear what you said just now!"

An angry voice came from outside the door.

Three people wearing the robes of the Tian Dao Institute walked in.

"Feng, let it go, don't stir up trouble."

One of them, a fair and beautiful girl with a good figure, pulled the furious young man in front of her.

"Hmph, they can insult others, but how can they allow someone to slander our Dao Xuan and Dao Child! If it weren't for Dao Xuan's bravery in killing enemies in the small world, how could they survive?"

The young man called Feng became angrier as he spoke, his face turning red with anger.

"Yes, if we hadn't heard it, it would have been fine, but since we're here, how can we allow others to insult Dao Xuan? Not only do they not know how to be grateful, but they also insult their savior!"

Another young man spoke with suppressed anger.

Hearing this, the woman sighed and stopped trying to persuade them, walking up to Jiang Li and the others.

"You heard it too. I need you to apologize for what you said."

The group eating in the room was stunned.

Apologize? Apologize for what?

In the past, they were a little afraid of your Tian Dao Institute, but today is different.

Moreover, what they said was the truth, right? Why should they apologize for speaking the truth?

"Hmph!" Zhou Kun, with the most fiery temper, stood up suddenly.

His imposing height of over 1.9 meters was intimidating.

"We spoke the truth. Why should we apologize? It's you who barged into our room. If you don't give an explanation, don't think about leaving!"

"Ridiculous!"

"Outrageous!"

The two Tian Dao Institute students were completely furious, and with their spiritual power swirling around them, they were about to start a fight.

"What are you three making a fuss about?"

A graceful and ethereal voice came from outside the door.

The three Tian Dao Institute members immediately stopped and bowed their heads in the direction of the door.

"Dao Child!"

"Hello, Dao Child!"

"Someone here insulted our Tian Dao Institute and the reputation of Dao Child!"

Standing outside was an extremely handsome man, with sharp eyebrows and starry eyes. His perfect features made anyone claiming to be handsome bow down in submission.

And his identity was even more awe-inspiring.

Tian Dao Institute's Dao Child—Dao Xuan!

Feeling puzzled, Dao Xuan learned from the team leader that after his severe injury had healed, he had been told that an extraordinary person had turned the tide and slain a Thunder Beast while they were severely injured and unconscious.

After inquiring, he found out that this person was having a meal at the restaurant, so he hurried over to express his gratitude.

He didn't expect to arrive and find his people almost getting into a fight with someone.

"What did they say?"

Dao Xuan asked.

"Well..." the woman being questioned was a bit hesitant.

"But it's okay to say."

"Yes, Dao Child." Sensing Dao Xuan's displeasure, the woman quickly said, "They said that this New Star Cup was all because of them. They also said that compared to them, Dao Child is just... just..."

"A fart..."

The woman's voice grew smaller and smaller, almost like a mosquito's buzz.

Dao Xuan sighed inwardly.

Although what they said wasn't very pleasant, it was all true...

Without them, all of you would be dead by now.

The person who could single-handedly kill a Thunder Beast, compared to him now, he might indeed be just... a fart.

"The three of you, get out!"

"Yes, Dao Child."

The three hung their heads dejectedly, unable to understand why, even though they were upholding the Tian Dao Institute and Dao Child's reputation, it had made Dao Child so angry.

After the three left, Dao Xuan looked at Jiang Li. He had already learned about Jiang Li's appearance from the team leader.

"Junior Brother and Junior Sister may not know the whole story, and I hope you can forgive us for any offense."

Dao Xuan bowed with his hands clasped.

"It's okay, we also have faults here," Jiang Li replied.

Dao Xuan breathed a sigh of relief, glad that Jiang Li was not someone who held grudges.

"As Dao Xuan, I was saved by you earlier. Here, on behalf of all the Tian Dao Institute disciples, I express my gratitude to Young Hero Jiang. If there's anything I can help with in the future, I will definitely not refuse!"

Dao Xuan was the kind of person who, once he owed someone a favor, would make sure to repay it, or else his mind would be troubled, affecting his cultivation.

Feeling the sincerity in Dao Xuan's words, Jiang Li nodded. He was quite willing to interact with such a person. Moreover, as the Tian Dao Institute's Dao Child, with a boundless future and being close to his home, there might really be a need for their help in the future.

"I wonder, does Dao Child use a cellphone?"

Seeing Dao Xuan's otherworldly appearance, Jiang Li wasn't sure if he would use such mundane things.

At the question, Dao Xuan was momentarily stunned, then smiled and said, "Of course."

"In that case, it's easy. Let's exchange contact information, so it's convenient to get in touch in the future."

Jiang Li added Dao Xuan as a friend on a messaging app. Dao Xuan's username was "Endless Sea of Dao," and his profile picture was a selfie.

Although he was indeed very handsome, it still felt a bit narcissistic.

After adding each other, Dao Xuan left the restaurant, and the others resumed eating and drinking.

However, after the commotion, the atmosphere had slightly dampened.

...

Six hours later

"Phew—finally back!"

Jiang Li stretched and got off the aircraft.

"From now on, those who want to go home can do so, and those who want to return to school can go to the bus station and take the school bus. The school has already sent people to wait there."

Wang Ye dismissed the crowd.

"Jiang Li, come with me for a moment. I have something to discuss with you."

Jiang Li followed Wang Ye into a small car, which drove in the direction of Jiang Li's home.

As for Wang Ningyue, she had already boarded the bus back to school.

"Jiang Li, can you sell me a vial of Gene Enhancement Potion?"

Wang Ye said as he drove, feeling a bit embarrassed. After all, as a teacher, he felt a bit ashamed to ask for this.

"Sure, I have six vials. I was just wondering where to sell them!"

Jiang Li smiled.

Wang Ye deliberately avoided Wang Ningyue's attention on the way, which Jiang Li noticed, and he guessed that something like this might happen.

It was probably Wang Ningyue's intention to win a vial in the competition, but she didn't expect such a turn of events.

This thing was useless to Jiang Li, so he was happy to sell it.

"Alright, how about 60 million for one vial?" Wang Ye said.

The market price of this thing was actually only around 50 million, but it was often difficult to obtain, so a markup was common.

Jiang Li was about to decline, when suddenly, a change occurred!
