Huang Ye's anticipated scene of slamming the table and glaring didn't happen. Instead, he was greeted by a face full of smiles.

That big face, smiling like that, was truly unsightly.

"You must be Huang, right? I'm the class monitor of the Body Refinement class, surname Xiao."

The burly man's tone was quite friendly.

Huang Ye ignored him and continued eating.

The big guy felt a bit awkward, and the lackey behind him was displeased with Huang Ye's attitude.

"Hey, kid, our boss is talking to you!"

Just as the lackey finished speaking, "Smack!" The big guy unceremoniously gave him a slap on the neck.

"Get lost, you're everywhere. Can't you see I'm chatting with Huang?"

Only then did Huang Ye look up at the big guy, though he could see him without looking up.

He looked up because the guy seemed sensible.

"Is there something you need?"

"Hehe, Huang, I heard you're now the class monitor of the Hidden Weapons class."

Damn, this guy's information network is impressive. I haven't even been class monitor for an afternoon, and he already knows.

No wonder he's being so polite. It seems the news about Jiang Yun getting beaten has spread.

Do they have a campus network or something?

"You haven't answered my question. What class I'm the monitor of is none of your business, right?"

"I heard you slapped Jiang Yun into a pig's head, and you also beat up my lackey."

"So, you want to stand up for them?" Huang Ye said coldly.

"No, no, I just came to make friends with you."

"Not interested. I'm here to study."

"I know, I heard you like reading. I have some Body Refinement textbooks I'd like to give you."

Huang Ye was taken aback. This guy is talented, finding out my hobbies so quickly.

"Xiao, I do like reading, but I don't accept things without reason."

"Eat from someone, and you owe them; take from someone, and you're in their debt."

"Huang, how is it without reason? You beating Jiang Yun is a great deed, and this is my thank you gift."

"Oh! You have a grudge against him."

"Sigh! More than a grudge, it's a long story."

"You're so big and into Body Refinement, yet you can't beat him?"

"Of course I can beat him, two Jiang Yuns wouldn't be a match for me, but he plays dirty."

"My family runs a small business, and the Jiang family is powerful. My family can't afford to provoke them."

"My sister was bullied by him, and my family could only swallow their pride."

"Damn, your sister was bullied by him, and you still swallow your pride? Are you even a man?"

"My family endured, but I didn't. I beat him up that very day, but he has backing in the academy, the leader of the Swordsmanship class, and he's full of schemes."

"The leader of the Swordsmanship class is the top dog in the academy, already at the seventh level of Martial Master. I'm no match for him."

"Jiang Yun brought him over, and I was almost crippled. If the instructor hadn't intervened, I might have lost my life."

After saying that, the big guy lifted his shirt, revealing a long sword scar.

"He's so arrogant, why hasn't Jiang Yun asked him to deal with me?"

"Huang, I came today to warn you to be careful. I'll handle my family's matters myself, and I'll get my revenge sooner or later."

"Today, hearing that you beat Jiang Yun made me happy, but I'm a bit worried about you, so I came to inform you."

"The leader of the Swordsmanship class is not in the academy. He went to another city's academy with some genius students for an exchange, and he won't be back for at least half a month."

"When he returns, you should avoid him. That guy is too cunning and ruthless."

"Thanks, I like cunning people, they're exciting and challenging."

"Uh!" Xiao was stunned, this kid really is fearless.

"Alright, I get it. I hope you genuinely like him. I've made myself clear."

"These are our textbooks. Just return them after you're done."

Xiao took out three books from his coat and handed them over.

"You're not bad, why do you have such a lackey?"

"Huang, it's not that I want him, he just clings to us shamelessly."

"He doesn't just follow us, he follows many people. As long as there's a boss or gang, he pays to join."

"Maybe he thought I could beat you, so he came to me, but I've already taught him a lesson."

"Although I haven't seen you in action, from what I've heard, I know I'm not on your level. Even if I took his money, I wouldn't dare cause you trouble."

"Didn't expect someone as big as you to be so sharp."

"Huang, my head is big, naturally smarter than that fool."

"Alright, you can go. That Swordsmanship class leader is just a clown to me, you don't need to worry about me."

"You're not bad, let's have a drink sometime."

"Ah! I'm honored, Xiao will definitely accompany you. I'm better at drinking than fighting."

"Alright, it's a deal."

"Brother Huang, Xiao is at your service anytime!" Xiao and his lackeys left the cafeteria.

Not long after, Huang Ye finished eating, cleaned his empty dishes, and headed back with the three books.

Saved some money again, "Today is a good day, everything I want comes true."

Humming a tune, Huang Ye left the cafeteria, his singing surprising the other students.

He found his dorm room, knocked on the door, and it opened in an instant.

Inside stood three people, Huang Ye looked at the room number in confusion, but it was correct.

"Welcome, Class Monitor Huang!" a skinny guy shouted, and the three of them bowed.

What the hell is this? I'm already a celebrity, seems like there really is a campus network.

"How do you know I'm the legendary Class Monitor Huang?"

A quick look at tinyurl.com/2p9emv8w will leave you more fulfilled.

"Class Monitor, I'm also in the Hidden Weapons class. You're the hero of our class now," said a slightly shorter student.

"Uh, just beating a scumbag makes me a hero?"

"Class Monitor, Jiang Yun might be a scumbag to you, but to us weak students, he's a demon."

"Your heroic act today was truly satisfying."

"Alright, just do what you need to do, no need to be so respectful to me."

"I'm here to study, not to play the hero. If Jiang Yun doesn't provoke me, I won't bother with him."

"Thank you, Class Monitor." The short guy bowed deeply.

Huang Ye understood immediately. With his stature, it's no wonder he gets bullied in class. People like Jiang Yun bully the weak and fear the strong.

"No need to thank me. As I said, treat everyone equally and respect each other."

"Yes, boss!" the three said in unison.

Huang Ye rolled his eyes, these three must have practiced that beforehand.

Whatever, let them call me that. Having a boss like me, they can be proud.

"Class Monitor, this is your bed," said the last student, who looked a bit handsome.

Huang Ye glanced at the tidy bed.

"You guys are thoughtful."

"Class Monitor, my name is Feng Yun," the skinny one introduced himself.

"I'm Feng Huateng," said the short one.

"I'm Yu Jianlin," the only handsome student introduced himself last.

"Alright, I got it. I'm going to read now, don't disturb me."

The three, who initially wanted to get closer, immediately returned to their beds, but their eyes occasionally glanced at Huang Ye.

After speaking, Huang Ye sat on his bed to read the three books, but it wasn't him reading; the System was scanning them.

He didn't want to get too involved with these three roommates.

In his previous life, everyone was on the same level, and they could open up without reservations.

Here, not to mention his identity as a cultivator, the dangers he faced weren't suitable for making many friends.

The System was also struggling, already exhausted from the afternoon, and now there were three more books at night.

Huang Ye's eyes were on the books, his hands flipping the pages, but his mind was elsewhere.
