Growl…
Just as Lin Bai walked out of the reception hall of the spiritual power pool.
Lin Bai’s stomach growled, and he instantly felt hungry.
“I haven’t eaten properly for a few days. I need to eat something.”
He sweated profusely in the gravity room and then went to the spiritual power pool without stopping.
After a round of torture, Lin Bai’s physical strength had long been exhausted.
Moreover, even though he had eaten some food occasionally in the past few days, it was only to satisfy his hunger and did not provide much energy.
He did not go to the cafeteria. According to the map, Lin Bai went straight to the resource supply point of the training camp.
In his opinion, cultivation resources were provided for free anyway. Eating natural treasures was definitely more effective than eating ordinary meat.
Just like him, when Lin Bai arrived at the resource supply point, it was already filled with people.
Before he even walked in, he could hear the noise of these people.
“Didn’t you say that cultivation resources would be provided for free? Why do you have to spend points on the things here?”
“Isn’t this a lie?!”
“They say that the resources invested in the gravity room and the spiritual power pool are free. Then why are we paying points we pay every time we enter?”
“Stop complaining. Didn’t the staff tell you? Those points were for the use of the training room.”
“What an overbearing clause!”
“If you don’t like it, you can go to the cafeteria to eat. The things there are super cheap! ”
“Pfft, do you think I’m an idiot? I’m in front of the line now, so you think that it’ll be your turn soon if I leave!”
After watching the commotion for a while, Lin Bai simply walked to the back of the line and waited in line.
The person who was originally at the back of the queue saw that someone else had come.
He turned around and wanted to chat for a while to pass the time.
However, the person who came was Lin Bai.
His mouth immediately closed.
He moved aside and gave up his spot with a very respectful expression.
“You go first. I’m not in a hurry!”
Seeing the other party like this, Lin Bai was a little amused.
He did not delay. He patted the other party’s shoulder in satisfaction and naturally took a step forward to stand where the other party was.
The person who was second to the last in line heard the commotion behind him and turned his head curiously.
When he saw that it was Lin Bai, the demon, his body trembled. Just like the person from before, he hurriedly gave up his spot.
Just like that, more than ten people gave up their spots.
The people in the queue suddenly felt that the end of the line had become strangely quiet. They all turned their heads to look at the back of the line.
“Brother Bai!”
Xu Kun’s surprised voice came from the front of the line.
Lin Bai raised his head and saw Xu Kun standing in the middle of the line.
“Why are you so late? Come over quickly. I saved a spot for you!”
Xu Kun looked around and quickly called out.
“No need, I’ll be fine here. Wait for me after you’re done buying. Let’s go back together!” Lin Bai responded.
It was not that he did not want to go over, but when he thought of Xu Kun’s words about how beneficial it was to have more friends, he gave up on the idea of offending people.
What he did not expect was that the people between him and Xu Kun consciously split up to form a path for him.
“I’m not in a hurry. Please go first!”
“Brother Lin, come here. This spot is closer to the front!”
“Get out of the way. Brother Lin, this spot is even better. It’s specially prepared for you!”
“Come here!”
In an instant, dozens of people opened their mouths and wanted to give up their spots.
They flattered Lin Bai as much as they could.
This stunned Lin Tianyuan and Zou Xu.
After they had scouted the training camp, they rushed over immediately.
“Hmph, look at their faces. How do they look like geniuses from various regions?” Lin Tianyuan snorted coldly.
“Who says they’re not? Although respecting the strong is a virtue, it’s too insincere to be so half-hearted.” Zou Xu waved his fan, his face full of pain and resentment.
“Brother Zou…What do you mean?” Lin Tianyuan was puzzled.
“I feel that I was too narrow-minded in the past. Lin Bai is so strong, so there must be something we can’t compare to him. Since we’re inferior, we have to be humble and ask for advice!” What?
‘Did he take the wrong medicine?
‘Didn’t he always dislike Lin Bai’s arrogance?
‘What’s wrong with him today? Has he changed his personality?’
Before Lin Tianyun could ask, Zou Xu waved his arm and greeted Lin Bai.
“Lin Bai, come over quickly. The first spot is specially reserved for you!”
Everyone widened their eyes.
Was this the Zou Xu they knew?
Since when did the four prodigies become bootlickers?
“Alright, thank you!”
This time, Lin Bai did not stand on ceremony.
He walked forward happily.
When he passed by Xu Kun, he did not forget to pat him on the shoulder. “What are you waiting for? Are you not hungry?! ”
Xu Kun chuckled and went to the front of the line with Lin Bai under the envious gazes of the others.
“My brother, do you mind if I bring him along?”
Lin Bai asked as he walked up to Zou Xu.
Although it was a question, his actions did not have the slightest intention of modesty.
He knew that Zou Xu and Lin Tianyuan were destined to challenge him.
He had no reason to be polite toward his potential enemies.
“I don’t mind, I don’t mind. Please go ahead!” Zou Xu smiled apologetically.
In fact, he had cursed internally.
‘I’ll let you be smug for a while. When I’m stronger, I’ll press you to the ground and rub you! Before that, I’ll keep a low profile and not let you find an excuse to challenge me.’
Lin Bai looked at the two of them thoughtfully and then at the counter.
The staff removed the sign that said that it was closed for business, and the display screen that showed the price list of the goods lit up. “Strengthened Stamina Potion. Price: 5 points.” “High Concentration Energy Potion. Price: 5 points.” “High-grade Demonic Beast Meat. Price: 3 points.”
“Body Tempering Pill, sold at 2 points.”
Lin Bai carefully checked the specific information of the goods one by one. The people behind him did not have the slightest impatience.
Following Lin Bai’s gaze, Zou Xu explained the function of each product to him.
Lin Bai nodded in satisfaction and looked at the staff.
“The four items on the top, 20 servings of each!”
Hearing this, everyone’s mouth fell open.
Even with the special discount, 20 servings would still cost 150 points!
He was too extravagant.
However, just as Lin Bai was about to pay, Zou Xu stopped him.
“Brother Lin, let me do it!”
In Zou Xu’s opinion, although he had to pay 270 points to enjoy the 10% discount, it was still very cost-effective if he could make Lin Bai forget about him.
Lin Bai raised his eyebrow. It seemed that his previous deterrence had taken effect.
“I’ll do it myself!”
The band swiped across the scanner, and Lin Bai realized that his points had decreased by 150 points.
He bought so many things, but they only cost 150 points. It was worth it!
Seeing that his flattery had failed, Zou Xu felt a little awkward.”Brother Lin, why are you being so polite to me?”
“Alright, I won’t be polite with you in the future! I still have some points now,” Lin Bai said with a look of realization, “I’ll go to you for more when I don’t have any!”
