"Hello."
Xiang Beifei looked at Ye Changfeng calmly and extended his hand to shake Ye's without feeling inferior or arrogant.
Ye Changfeng was slightly surprised when he saw how calm Xiang Beifei was speaking.
He had t many students with exceptional talent, so of whom were top-notch SR-level students, but they would all beco sowhat nervous and even hastily put on a smile to welco him when they heard he was a teacher from Liangzhou University's admissions office.
After all, Liangzhou University was a prestigious institution, and being a teacher there demanded respect from everyone. Even Awakeners who had not yet co into their own would be utterly respectful when facing a university teacher.
But Xiang Beifei's attitude was very composed, as if greeting just an ordinary person, showing no signs of excitent or tension. Discover stories with m,v l'e-
Very calm indeed.
Ye Changfeng couldn't help but take another look at Xiang Beifei.
"Please co in."
Xiang Beifei stepped aside to let Ye Changfeng enter.
As Ye Changfeng stepped inside, he surveyed the clean and tidy room and then said with a smile, "No sll of dicine, no coughing, very clean, enough to lay one's foot down."
Xiang Beifei knew what he was referring to; Yu Lei's article had put Liangzhou University on the hot search, making it common knowledge. The article depicted various fabricated miseries of Xiang Beifei's ho life, which Ye Changfeng was certainly aware of.
"Seeing is believing, isn't it?"
Xiang Beifei said plainly.
Ye Changfeng's eyes flickered slightly, and after a mont, he adjusted his glasses, still maintaining a gentle smile, "You're right."
"Please have a seat, I'll go pour you a glass of water."
Xiang Beifei turned and walked into the kitchen, took a disposable paper cup from the cabinet, filled it with hot water, and handed it to Ye Changfeng.
"Thank you."
Ye Changfeng took the cup politely, his movents genteel and restrained, without any arrogance typical of an SR expert, appearing as an amiable, ordinary person.
Xiang Beifei sat across from Ye Changfeng and said, "We don't often have guests at ho, so there isn't much to offer. Please excuse ."
"That's alright; simplicity is good."
Ye Changfeng didn't mind, his gaze casually sweeping around the living room, he asked, "Is your grandfather not ho?"
"He's not," Xiang Beifei replied, and after a pause, he added, "I wasn't aware that Liangzhou University's admissions would make a house call."
"For an average S-level student, I indeed would not visit, but I do make personal visits to so special students, such as Awakeners who are coveted by the other eight elite universities or—"
Ye Changfeng paused here, sizing up Xiang Beifei again before continuing with a aningful smile, "a top scorer in the college entrance exam, like you."
"I am not the top scorer," Xiang Beifei responded.
"In my eyes, first place in raw scores is the top scorer. I don't like the bonus points system."
Ye Changfeng took a sip of water, then placed his cup on the table and said, "The S-level system is already more powerful than others, adding points on top of it seems excessive. What do you think?"
He looked at Xiang Beifei, very interested in the young man's opinion.
"What I think isn't important; the system won't change because of ," Xiang Beifei responded. "If you think it's excessive, you should try to bring about a change."
Ye Changfeng was taken aback.
Xiang Beifei spoke frankly; he was just a student for now, not powerful enough to break the rules set by others, lacking the ability to change them.
However, as an SR-level professor at Liangzhou University, Ye Changfeng had influence and authority. If anyone should attempt to change sothing, it ought to be soone influential like him.
Ye Changfeng laughed, "You're right, perhaps I should try to bring up my concerns with those people above."
He paused before shaking his head, "But the chances are slim, they are quite stubborn."
Xiang Beifei gazed at Ye Changfeng, lost in thought.
He wasn't pondering who the so-called "those people above" might be; he was considering what that sword by Ye Changfeng's side was.
From the mont Ye Changfeng had entered the room, a long sword appeared floating beside him. Three feet in length, the blade shimred with a cold light, thick with a strong presence—as if a majestic azure dragon coiled around it, the sword was extrely imposing.
It clearly ca from the system, and normally, it should be invisible to others—or perhaps Ye Changfeng thought his sword was invisible to Xiang Beifei.
But Xiang Beifei could see the sword, and not just that; the sword continuously emitted a strange fluctuation as if a pair of eerie eyes were shooting out from the dragon's shadow, falling upon him, as though trying to see right through him.
Xiaohei was making faces on Xiang Beifei's shoulder, and if it weren't for his restraint, Xiaohei would probably have grabbed the sword to rough it up already.
Seeing that Xiang Beifei hadn't spoken, Ye Changfeng took it upon himself to speak again, "I ca here today because you applied to Liangzhou University. Your scores are not a problem. But rules are rules; you need to go through our enrollnt assessnt. This is the notice for the assessnt, with the ti and location inside."
He pulled a white envelope from his suit pocket and handed it to Xiang Beifei.
Xiang Beifei looked at the envelope. It only had a few simple words on it: Xiang Beifei (Personal), then stamped with the postmark of Liangzhou University.
"Thank you."
Xiang Beifei took the letter and set it aside.
"Aren't you going to open it?" Ye Changfeng asked.
"Do you want to open it?"
"That depends on you."
"Then I'm not in a rush," Xiang Beifei replied.
Ye Changfeng looked at Xiang Beifei with increasing astonishnt and asked, "I thought you'd want to know the exact ti."
"If it's not today, there's no rush," Xiang Beifei replied.
Ye Changfeng laughed, nodding slightly, "You really are extraordinary. I was thinking, the son of Xiang Tianxing wouldn't be simple, no matter what."
Xiang Beifei furrowed his brows.
"You're right, I knew your father, and when I found out you were Xiang Tianxing's son, I specifically took on this task to see what kind of person you really are," Ye Changfeng said.
Xiang Beifei nodded thoughtfully.
Ye Changfeng seed to be waiting for Xiang Beifei to ask sothing, but Xiang Beifei appeared to have no intention of asking much.
After a long pause, it was Ye Changfeng who could not help himself and said, "Won't you ask about your father's matters?"
"Will you tell what mission my father was on?"
Ye Changfeng smiled and then shook his head.
"Then why should I ask?" Xiang Beifei said.
Ye Changfeng looked slightly taken aback and said, "I thought you would always be a bit curious."
"I don't like to ask pointless questions," Xiang Beifei replied.
Ye Changfeng's gaze on Xiang Beifei grew even more peculiar; he hadn't expected such an answer from him.
This is interesting.
He then said, "What about the enrollnt assessnt? Don't you have anything you want to ask ?"
Xiang Beifei didn't speak, just looked at Ye Changfeng strangely.
Ye Changfeng realized sothing, shook his head slightly, and smiled, "In your eyes, that's also a pointless question, right?"
