A Sad Gathering

At night, at 8am sharp.

Li Feng arrived at the Hundred Fragrance Pavilion as promised.

He walked straight in and quickly found the room Yang Wei had booked. There were sounds of laughter coming from inside.

He pushed the door open and entered, only to find that it was already filled with people. They were all familiar and unfamiliar faces.

In the room.

The originally noisy environment instantly fell silent. Then, everyone's gazes landed on Li Feng.

Li Feng seemed a little awkward. This was because in the last year of his third year, he didn't make many good friends.

"Li Feng, you're finally here. Come and sit here," said Yang Wei enthusiastically when he saw that it was Li Feng.

He pulled up an empty chair beside her.

Li Feng didn't hold back either. He walked over to a chair and sat down. "What was everyone talking about just now? Why are you so happy?"

"Hehe, it's naturally my experience of breaking through the Class Rank." Yang Wei smiled wretchedly. He was showing off to these people just now.

After understanding the situation, he realized that most of the students were still Primary-Rank players.

This made him, who had already broken through to the Class Rank, feel a sense of superiority.

Li Feng was a little speechless. He was already an adult, but he was still so childish. He was different. He always liked to keep a low profile.

"Back then, the two of you were considered the weakest in the class. I didn't expect you to break through to the Class Rank so quickly. It makes me envious!" A classmate sighed with emotion.

Yang Wei and Sheng Xu were the weakest in the class.

Now, he had caught up with them and had walked ahead of them.

However, he automatically ignored Li Feng as he spoke. After all, no one had expected Li Feng to amaze the world with a single brilliant feat and become the champion.

He was unreasonably powerful.

At the side, Sheng Xu pretended to be calm and said, "This is just luck. In the Iron Blood College, if you don't work hard to improve, only death awaits you. Back then, in order to break through to the Class Rank, I also narrowly escaped death several times."

Although he was telling the truth, a thick aura of arrogance spread in all directions.

"Breaking through to the Class Rank is indeed very dangerous. I almost died in the hands of a dimensional creature." At that moment, Jiang Sheng interrupted.

He sat in a corner. After months of college life, he seemed more composed.

Beside him were Xu Luo, Chen Dali, and a bunch of his friends. They kept quiet.

The institute was a small society. They had been beaten up badly and had yet to break through to the Class Rank.

"Sigh, I wonder when I can break through to the Class Rank." Another person sighed.

"There's no hurry. You guys are still young. Why are you guys so dejected now? You don't have any ambition at all. Normally, as long as you guys break through in a few years, your speed will be considered fast," Yang Wei spoke with confidence.

This made many students want to hammer his skull. Did he think that he was speaking human language?

Indeed, it was very fast for them to be able to break through to the Class Rank in their second and third years.

However, the reason why they were so melancholic and anxious now was because this guy was showing off. This made everyone feel a sense of urgency.

As the saying went, there was no harm without comparison.

Meanwhile, Li Feng was drinking and eating at the side. He didn't say anything. It wasn't that he didn't want to integrate into the game, but the levels were really different.

Most of the people here were talking about the danger of a certain Primary-Rank dungeon. Thus, he could not say anything.

"By the way, Li Feng." Suddenly, a student looked at Li Feng and asked somewhat enviously, "How's the environment of Jianye College? Is there a lot of resources inside? You should have broken through to the Class Rank now, right?"

His college was only a third-rate college, so he had to fight for everything.

Thus, he was very envious of Li Feng, who had entered a top educational institute.

"It's alright, but I've already quit school. I'm not a student from there anymore," Li Feng replied with a smile and didn't say much about himself.

"He withdrew from Jianye College."

Everyone present was shocked. Jianye College was considered a top college in the Great Xia Kingdom. They didn't expect Li Feng to actually drop out.

Something must have happened.

However, everyone knew better than to ask too many questions. They just looked at Li Feng with pity.

Then, everyone changed the topic and talked about some interesting stories in their own colleges.

"Li Feng, I might have done something wrong in the past. I hereby apologize to you." Just as the gathering was about to end, Jiang Sheng walked over and offered Li Feng a toast.

This surprised Li Feng. Then, he shook his head and said, "It's nothing. It's just a small matter. It's already in the past. I didn't take it to heart anymore."

At that time, there was only some verbal friction between them. It was nothing.

Jiang Sheng nodded and returned to his seat.

"By the way, our Chengde County has an additional Class-Rank dungeon. Do you know about this?"

Suddenly, a female student spoke.

Her figure was slender, and her long hair hung down her shoulders. Her gaze was bright and spirited.

"Zhou Li, is what you said true?" Someone wanted to confirm this.

This was because this was a very important matter that would determine their future.

Zhou Li nodded. "My family has some connections. I heard that the day before yesterday, there was a commotion in Chengde County because of the appearance of this new dungeon. However, it has been suppressed by the county head."

"That's great. After graduation, maybe we can come back to live here." Some students revealed excited expressions.

Only when he left Chengde County would he understand how much pressure was outside.

However, staying here did not have any prospects for development. He could only wait for death.

If Chengde County had its own Class-Rank dungeon, all the problems would be solved.

As a result, many students revealed excited expressions.

It was midnight.

The conversation gradually died down. Everyone knew that this gathering was about to end. Perhaps there would be fewer people the next time they gathered.

"Let's go, let's go. There is no such thing as a banquet that will not end." In the end, Yang Wei was a little sad.

Then, Li Feng also stood up and ended this slightly emotional gathering.

Screech!

He opened the door of the private room and walked out.

"Li Feng, you brat, you're actually gathering here?" At this moment, a familiar voice sounded.

"Old Ye, you guys are also holding a celebratory feast here." Li Feng turned around and saw Ye Buzhou, Liu Jiang, and the others.

"That's right. If I had known that you would be gathering here, I would have asked you to join our celebration party." Ye Buzhou shook his head and said regretfully, "You're the protagonist of this dungeon. Without you, I keep feeling that this celebration party is meaningless."

The two of them walked side by side, while Liu Jiang and the others were slightly behind them. They followed behind the two of them.

…

…

"Is this our principal? He seems to be the county head of our county. There are also principals from No.1 Middle School and No.2 Middle School."

"What do they mean by the celebratory feast? Is Li Feng the main character?"

The students who had just walked out of the room pinched their faces hard, wondering if they were drunk.

In the next moment, they all thought of a possibility and looked shocked.

Could it be that the person who suppressed the new dungeon was Li Feng?

"As expected, this guy is still the same as before. He's amazing!" When Jiang Sheng saw this, he shook his head and laughed.

However, he no longer had the jealousy he had in the past.

Meanwhile, Yang Wei and Sheng Xu were very depressed. They had finally managed to show off, but in the end, Li Feng stole the limelight again.

Li Feng naturally didn't know what happened after that.

When he got home, it was already two in the evening. Thus, he lay down on the bed and rested.

Early the next morning.

After informing Ye Buzhou, Yang Wei, and the others, he prepared to take the bus back to Da Qian City.
