Campus Cultivation Master-Chapter 686 - 0688: Tea Battle [Part 3]

The etiquette lady, upon hearing Chu Feng’s words, quickly realized her mistake. Her face bore an indescribable respect as she said, "No, sir, that’s not the case. Your invitation is not fake; your seat is in one of the boxes over here. Please follow me!"

When Li Xiaoran heard the etiquette lady’s words, her beautiful eyes sparkled as she said, "Brother, so you’re in a private box? Why didn’t you say so sooner? Who gave you the invitation? Even my grandfather doesn’t have one."

Chu Feng knocked her on the head and said, "I’ll tell you once we’re inside. Be quiet for now."

The etiquette lady, looking to be in her twenties and seeing that Chu Feng could hold an invitation to the box, also had a different light shining in her beautiful eyes.

As she walked, she deliberately swayed her hips more than necessary in front of Chu Feng and revealed a few more centimeters of her snow-white thighs.

However, Chu Feng was unmoved, and she could only give up.

Before entering the box, she still stealthily slipped her phone number to Chu Feng.

Though she knew Chu Feng might not call her, one must always have dreams, for what if they came true?

Someone who could enter a private box at the age of twenty was certainly extraordinary. If something could happen between her and such a young person, it would be worth it.

To know, there were only five private boxes set up at the top level for this Tea Battle.

These five boxes couldn’t be entered just because you have money.

In addition to money, you also needed power and influence.

Only those who were exceptional in all three aspects would be likely to receive an invitation.

Of course, if you reached the pinnacle of the world in any one of these three aspects, you could also secure an invitation.

However, what kind of wealth or power could be considered the strongest in the world? Obviously, that is very hard to estimate.

Chu Feng and Li Xiaoran entered a room that was also quaint and charming. The room wasn’t divided by partitions but was separated with ornate latticed carvings. This not only avoided a blunt division but also ensured privacy between the divided spaces—a clever design indeed.

Li Xiaoran stepped on the soft and comfortable carpet below and, excited, took off her high heels, opting to tread barefoot on the carpet.

"So comfy, way more than outside. These high heels were killing my feet," Li Xiaoran said contentedly as she sat on a chair, griping.

The positions of the boxes were slightly better than those in the main hall and also more conducive to observing the Tea Battle head-on.

"Brother, who gave you the invitation? Even grandpa doesn’t have one. I heard that Grandpa Huang has one, but he’s not coming and he’s not letting Zixuan come either," Li Xiaoran said.

Chu Feng hadn’t expected that Elder Huang had received an invitation too.

However, it seemed normal upon reflection, as Elder Huang was the kind of person who completely retired once he retired. Receiving an invitation was truly not a big deal.

But Elder Huang was also aware that if he were to appear at such an event, there would be countless interpretations.

So the best way to avoid misunderstandings was to stay out of these matters. After all, if he really wanted to know what was going on inside, there were ways to find out.

The carpet on the ground was incredibly comfortable, stepping on it felt soft and springy, as if walking on clouds.

After Chu Feng and Li Xiaoran settled down in their own private room, people began to enter the surrounding rooms one after another.

The private rooms on both sides, though latticed, made it quite difficult to see clearly who was entering them.

And for Chu Feng at present, this too posed a challenge.

Cultivation had recovered, but Divine Sense had not. It would take some time before Divine Sense might recover. Thus, Chu Feng couldn’t make out who the people entering the opposite rooms really were just by looking.

"Who are all these people? How do they have invitations my grandpa doesn’t even possess?" Li Xiaoran grumbled, clearly annoyed and frustrated.

"Is that Miss Xiaoran?" Just as Li Xiaoran’s words trailed off, a pleasant male voice came from the private room on the right.

Li Xiaoran obviously didn’t know who was next door.

"Who are you? How do you know me?" Li Xiaoran didn’t recognize the person but, having a voice, she could speak up and ask.

The person next door laughed and replied, "Miss Xiaoran, you really are forgetful. We’ve met several times before."

After carefully recalling for a moment, Li Xiaoran’s expression suddenly changed as she said, "You’re Qi Wen!"

On hearing that it was someone with the surname Qi, Chu Feng instantly became vigilant and also understood the intention of the Dragon Soul General Captain.

The person next door chuckled and said, "Indeed not easy, I didn’t expect Miss Xiaoran to remember my name. I thought I’d have to remind you."

Li Xiaoran gritted her teeth and said, "Even if you turned to ash, I wouldn’t forget you. How could I be neighbors with you? It’s just my bad luck."

Qi Wen next door didn’t mind at all and continued to speak, "I recognize Miss Xiaoran, but I wonder who the other friend is? Could you kindly reveal your identity?"

Chu Feng said, "If you want to know who I am, you’ll have to come over here. I don’t have the habit of discussing matters through a screen."

On hearing Chu Feng’s words, Qi Wen said, "I didn’t expect to encounter such a mysterious guest; now, I’m quite curious."

Chu Feng said, "Nothing mysterious about it, at least not between you and me. We have fought so many times. Although I’ve been at a disadvantage, it seems you haven’t gained much either. Do you really just want to spend money for some fun? If that’s the case, pick a time when I’m not busy, and I’ll play along."

Chu Feng laid the issue bare, causing silence from the other side for a moment.

After five seconds, Qi Wen’s voice came through again. His tone was still very relaxed, not showing the slightest bit of tension despite Chu Feng’s direct approach.

"Mr. Chu, I really didn’t expect to meet you in such a setting. But this is better than a battlefield with flashing swords and shadows," Qi Wen’s attitude remained calm, betraying no anxiety.

Pausing a moment, Qi Wen continued, "Brother Chu, since we’ve met, it must be fate. How about you come over to my private room? I’ve prepared some food and drink; shall we have a toast?"

Chu Feng said, "If there’s free alcohol, I’d certainly have no objection, but it’s up to the little girl here. If she disagrees, then it’s a no-go."

Qi Wen said, "So Brother Chu is in a romance with Miss Xiaoran. But I’ve heard that Brother Chu has a girlfriend back in East River, and it seems you’re even close to getting engaged? What’s the deal with you and Miss Xiaoran then? I actually consider Miss Xiaoran as a real sister, so I hope Brother Chu, you won’t let her down!"
