265 Training Field (1/2)
The waiter understood that he could do nothing more than approve Xue Wei's request. Although he still looked down upon them, he could not go against a core student.
If this core student were to tell his superiors about his behavior, it was clear that he would lose his job faster than he was able to explain the situation.
Understanding this, he accepted the card in Xue Wei's hand and swiped it over the scorecard. Seeing that he had ten thousand and six hundred seventy-nine merit points, he felt like biting his own tongue.
This amount of merit points was not little at all. It was definitely enough to allow the entire group of four to eat in a room if they pleased, and as a result, his face turned from a shade of red to purple and then to green.
”Follow me,” the mortified waiter said without any excessive politeness, but considering that he was willing to help them to the room, Xue Wei did not cause problems anymore.
Although he was annoyed with the waiter, this man was simply not worth paying attention to. The waiter was someone who was doomed to be beneath him, both in strength and in status. To deal with such a person would only cause him to feel disgusted.
Together they walked upstairs to the upper floor where there were rooms, each beautifully decorated and containing a table and some cushions to sit on.
They arrived in front of one of the rooms, not one of the best rooms on the floor but a decent room nonetheless.
Here they were led inside, and there was a waitress waiting for them inside. Seeing that the group contained four people with two eyes each, surprise flashed in her eyes, but she said nothing and smiled sweetly instead.
The waiter who had led them over quickly left without as much as a word, and returned to the front of the restaurant, his face filled with unwillingness.
Although he was unwilling to accept that these two-eyed experts were core students, he was not silly enough to think that Xue Wei had falsified the core student medal, and thus he was forced to treat them at least somewhat respectfully.
Xue Wei ignored the waiter and sat down on one of the cushions. The others followed suit and soon they were looking at the menu, wondering which dishes they should eat.
There was a chef in their house, but that chef did not make food that increased their strength, and although it was edible, it was not as delicious as the food here.
Xue Wei ordered a few random dishes from the menu and some fruit wine. These menus were then handed to the waitress in the room, and she quickly bowed before leaving the room to quickly pick up the things they had ordered.
”That waiter was quite rude,” Lin Xiao said and sighed as he shook his head. ”What was his problem?”
”It is clear that he, as a three eyed expert, looks down upon us because we only have two eyes, and when he then realizes that we are way above him, he will become even more unwilling to admit it.” Xue Wei shrugged his shoulders. It really did not matter how the waiter behaved. In Xue Wei's eyes, he was just a clown jumping around.
Sensing the carelessness from Xue Wei, the others were rather surprised, but none of them said anything. They understood that it was not because Xue Wei was benevolent, but because he simply could not be bothered to take a shot at someone so far beneath his focus.
Although it was clear that Xue Wei would not take a shot at the man, it did not mean that Hei Gou and the others were willing to swallow their anger. They were all contemplating how to make life difficult for this waiter.
Although Xue Wei knew about it, he did not care. Everyone had their own principles and should follow them. Xue Wei was in no position to tell his friends how they should act.
Although Hei Gou, Lin Xiao and Bai Tianyi were playing with the thoughts of how to punish the waiter, they quickly forgot about him when the dishes arrived.
These dishes were specialized half in essence of the heavens and the earth and half in soul power, so when consumed they would instantly make the body refine the energies and make it into Qi and spiritual energy.
The density of energy from the food was as potent as that provided by the consumption of pills, but the absorption was much more gentle and it was clear that it did not require one to sit down and meditate to refine the energies; it slowly transformed itself while being digested.
All four of them were greatly surprised when they noticed this. They had come here to experience something a bit different and also experience the benefits one could get from spiritual food, but when eating it they found that it was truly magnificent.
The food filled with the essence of the heavens and the earth was many times cheaper than the dishes that contained soul power, and Xue Wei had purchased a surplus of those dishes because three of them could benefit from them while only two could benefit from the soul power dishes.
While eating, the group made small talk about their current experiences in Yan Dalu. They had experienced many things since arriving here, and it seems they had been trapped in a web of mysteries, making it very hard for them to escape unless they solved the problem.
”These people are all very friendly, but I do not know if they are friendly because of them needing us,” Bai Tianyi said and sighed after a bit of time. ”We are being treated extremely well, and it seems that everyone within the entire continent is happy, but it is almost a utopia and I cannot believe that it is as wonderful as it seems.”
