There were already many students from both houses on the deck at this time, gathering together in twos and threes, chatting and laughing.
Exquisite pastries and fruit plates were displayed on the dining table, and a specially invited pianist was playing, with a beautiful sound.
He got on the boat alone and was dressed differently from many students, so he immediately attracted a lot of people's attention.
"Brother Guan, look!"
On a certain side of the deck, a group of students were chatting. A young man in the middle suddenly saw Gu Chen getting on the boat and quickly alerted the people around him.
"What happened? Who is coming again?"
When the companions around him heard this, they thought it was some genius from the two major colleges who had arrived. They couldn't help but follow his gaze, and their expressions immediately became strange.
"What a coincidence! I met him again. Where did this person come from?"
These two people were Gao Qi, a true disciple of the Sulfur Light Sect who visited the Demon King that day, and Guan Xun, a true disciple of the Xuantian Sect.
That day, they begged the Demon King for a long time but were unable to meet him. However, when Gu Chen came, they were warmly received. They were angry in their hearts, so they were deeply impressed by Gu Chen.
Tonight, Saint Yao hosted a banquet for young talents from both colleges. Seeing Gu Chen again made them very concerned.
"Brother Gao, Brother Guan, who are you talking about?"
A group of people nearby saw the two people looking strange and asked curiously.
They followed the gaze of the two men and saw only a young man with an unattractive appearance, who seemed to be not even a student.
You must know that the two of them are true disciples of the two major holy sects. One has reached the perfection of Nirvana, and the other is close to it. It is not an exaggeration to say that he is a quasi-king.
The only ones they care about are usually the top students in the two houses.
"Do you know that person?"
Guan Xun's eyes flickered, pointing at Gu Chen in the distance, and asked several students from the Zhenwu Academy around him.
"I don't know him. This person shouldn't be a student of my Zhenwu Academy, right? Judging from his dress, he doesn't seem to be a descendant of any big force."
The students of Zhenwu Academy flatly denied it.
"This is strange."
Guan Xun and Gao Qi looked at each other, feeling even more puzzled.
"Brothers, what is so special about that person that makes you care so much?"
Everyone else's curiosity was aroused and they asked questions one after another.
The two then told the story of that day when they went to see the Demon King, but they were turned away, while the man was entertained.
"It's strange. The demon king Sun Jinming has a hot temper and has never been friendly to my human race. How could he treat this person so politely?"
"From what you two said, I'm afraid this person is not simple!"
Everyone's expressions changed as they looked at Gu Chen in the distance, and there was a solemn look in his eyes.
It's true that people cannot be judged by their appearance. If they hadn't heard what these two people said, they would have despised that person, and it would be bad if they accidentally offended him.
"Since this person is not a student of Zhenwu Academy and is so young, who exactly is he and what is his identity?"
Guan Xun and Gao Qi looked gloomy, a little worried about this matter.
"Brothers, what are you talking about?"
At this time, a young man smiled flatteringly and came forward.
"Brother Wei, it turns out to be you."
Everyone turned their heads and looked at it, some disapproving of it.
This person's name is Wei Jiechao, and it turns out that he was also the 36th on the Zhenwu Academy's Hidden Dragon Ranking. His strength is not bad, and he has a group of people gathered around him, so he should not be underestimated.
But more than a month ago, he had an unknown fight with someone, and he and a group of friends were beaten half to death. Their vitality was severely damaged. Since then, he has become the laughing stock of everyone, and people rarely interact with him.
At this time, he took the initiative to come forward. Everyone knew that he wanted to get acquainted with the true disciples of the two holy sects, so they didn't want to pay much attention to him.
"Are you also a student of Zhenwu Academy? Do you know that person in the distance?"
Guan Xun and Gao Qi were depressed and asked casually.
Wei Jiechao was excited. It was rare that these two people took the initiative to talk to him. It was a great opportunity to get acquainted. He hurriedly followed their gazes and looked over.
At this sight, his expression froze. "It's him!"
"You know him?"
The eyes of Guan Xun and others all lit up.
Wei Jiechao's expression became uncertain, and his teeth were itching with hatred. "It's not just acquaintance, it's not an exaggeration to say that we have hatred!"
"Oh? Tell me, which big force is he descended from, or does he have some extraordinary status?"
Gao Qi asked quickly.
"Hey, he doesn't have any great status. He is just a small steward in the college's library!"
Wei Jiechao sneered, feeling very angry thinking about this.
He and Huo Haishan had a quarrel in the library building because of Ling Xiaoxiao.
Unexpectedly, Manager Chen thought they were noisy, so he beat them and kicked them out.
After this, they were unwilling to accept it and gathered a group of companions to block him and want revenge.
Who would have thought that this guy was extremely strong, and the monkey next to him was even more ferocious, but he gave them a lesson, and each of them had to recuperate for a long time.
He recovered from his injury not long ago, but he has always been resentful about it.
Because a group of people beat a man and a monkey and lost. This was so embarrassing that they didn't dare let anyone know, so they hid the news from the outside world.
But there is no airtight wall in the world. Everyone knows that they have been severely punished and regard it as a joke. They just don’t know who did it.
"The steward of the library building?"
Wei Jiechao's answer stunned everyone, especially Guan Xun and Gao Qi, whose expressions were particularly ugly.
Previously, they thought that this person was ordinary, but it was just because the Demon King valued him and he attended the banquet tonight that they guessed that he might have some unknown identity.
But now that Wei Jiechao said this, they couldn't help but feel very angry.
He is just a small steward, but the demon king would rather see him than them. Isn't this clearly humiliating people?
"Are you sure what you said is true?"
The patrol officer looked cold.
"It's absolutely true. If you two brothers don't believe it, you can ask Huo Haishan, and he can also testify!"
Wei Jiechao nodded hurriedly, his heart moved.
Judging from the appearance of these two people, it seems that they also have a grudge against Manager Chen?
His mind couldn't help but become active. After suffering a loss last time, he always wanted to take revenge on Manager Chen, but he was no match for him.
His friends, after being taught a lesson, considered themselves unlucky and refused to help him anymore.
This time, there are two true disciples of the Holy Sect. If they can be allowed to teach Manager Chen a lesson, then his revenge will be avenged.
Moreover, I can also use this to establish a relationship with these two people, which is simply killing two birds with one stone!
"Where is Huo Haishan?"
Gao Qi said coldly.
"Brother Gao wants to find him? Wait, I'll call him, and he'll come right away!"
Wei Jiechao immediately and enthusiastically went to find Huo Haishan, and within a moment, he brought him back.
At this time, Gu Chen saw that the banquet had not officially started yet, so he casually found a corner to sit down and drank by himself.
"Do you know that person in the distance? He is just a small steward in the library building of Zhenwu Academy?"
When Guan Xun saw Huo Haishan, he immediately asked.
Huo Haishan glanced at Gu Chen in the distance and nodded quickly. "Yes, Brother Guan, that guy is indeed just a small steward. Many people in the college have seen him in the library building."
