Outside the bamboo building, a middle-aged man in his forties was waiting at the door with an invitation.

He was wearing a yellow robe with a white belt hanging from his waist, and his weathered face was filled with a kind smile.

"Creaky", the wooden door was gently pushed open, and Lin Miaomiao, wearing a white skirt and a neat ponytail, led the middle-aged man into the bamboo building.

Ji Mo sat in the living room with a smile on his face. The table was filled with delicious dishes that smelled very tempting.

The huge bamboo house looked extremely empty, with very few pieces of furniture. There was only an old table and a few stools in the living room.

No need to guess, the dishes on the table were all prepared by Lin Miaomiao. The man was called Li Hengyou, forty-three years old, and a mid-level third-turn cultivator. He was an ordinary teacher in the academy. He was humble and not good at competing. Just like his name, he was persistent and determined. He came from a low-income family and was a child of refugees. He was picked up by a cook when he was young and has been brought up by him ever since. Later, with the cook's recommendation, he passed the trial and entered the first turn, and began to practice.

After thirty years of self-discipline, he finally broke through the three transformations, became a teacher, had a stable job, and started a family.

Because he has no background, most of the students he can teach are descendants of servants. This time, because Ji Mo's parents passed away, his cultivation has plummeted. Now that he returns to the academy, it is impossible for him to return to Class A. Under the secret manipulation of others, he was eliminated from Class C, which seemed to be a deliberate humiliation to Ji Mo, and was arranged to Class D, the worst class.

I had investigated this class in advance at the end of the quarter. It had the largest number of students and was the most diverse, but their cultivation was extremely poor. After a year, some people were still stuck in the early stages of the first turn, and the highest was only at the second high level.

It was a world of difference compared to Class A, where all the members were high-level.

Entering this class basically cuts off all resources for cultivation. In this academy where competition is everything, even a little difference can lead to countless losses, which cannot be made up for by hard work.

Li Hengyou was a little nervous when he came this time. This was his first time to meet a child from a wealthy family. Although Ji Mo's background looked much worse than others, he was essentially a young master of the Ji family. He did not dare to neglect him at all. He wore his best clothes, brought an invitation, and stood stiffly at the door.

Li Hengyou was led into the room. He looked across the table at the young man with a childish face and a smile on his face. He didn't dare neglect him. He quickly bowed and saluted, saying with a smile, "Your servant, Li Hengyou, greets the young master. I apologize for not coming to greet you."

Ji Mo smiled, a little annoyed by these rules, and said impatiently: "Don't do it, it's not from the heart, sit down and eat."

"We'll be staying here for a long time, so we don't need to be bound by these rules. Just do whatever makes you feel comfortable."

Li Heng's face froze and cold sweat broke out. Although he had not committed any crime against the young masters of the big families, he had seen the crimes of others. When he met someone with a bad temper, he would directly mobilize the resources of his family. Buying an arm or a leg was a trivial matter. Some people would even die because of a word.

The academy doesn't pay any attention to these matters at all. If any family members come to make trouble and have no background, they will be killed on the spot.

"Sit down, why are you standing?"

Ji Mo looked at Li Hengyou in confusion.

The other party seemed to have just reacted, "Thank you for the reward, Master Mo."

"?" Ji Mo narrowed his eyes and looked at him, then smiled helplessly, "Forget it, whatever you want, sit down and eat, I have something to ask you."

Li Hengyou nodded, "I will tell you everything that Young Master wants to know."

Li Hengyou pulled out a stool, sat down, looked at Ji Mo, and hesitated to pick up his chopsticks.

Seeing this at the end of the season, I felt extremely helpless. I am not a monster, so why should I be so cautious!

However, he also understood that a small figure like Li Hengyou, who could survive in the academy, not only had to learn to be cautious, but also to learn to respect. He had to face the young masters of the big families like a pug, constantly wagging his tail, not afraid that they would not reward him, but only afraid that they would be dissatisfied, so as not to implicate his family.

Ji Mo was speechless. He stood up, picked up a piece of meat, and handed it to Li Hengyou's bowl. He said softly, "You are not a child anymore. Don't make me coax you like a girl, and only eat it after I put it in your bowl."

"I asked you to come this time because, firstly, we can get to know each other better, since we'll be together for a long time. Secondly, I want to know how many resources you can get in the academy."

Li Heng nodded, thinking that this young master seemed a little different, more free and easy, and didn't like those kinds of rules. Maybe he shouldn't be so restrained, lest he offend the young master of the Ji family because of his personality.

But when it comes to resources, Li Hengyou lowered his head helplessly. He said cautiously, "Thirty-four... no... forty, forty-five."

Li Hengyou gave three answers in a row, and when he said the last 45, he almost gritted his teeth, "Young Master Mo, I can only get 45 spirit stones."

Ji Mo sighed softly: "Forty-five yuan, is that the resources allocated by the class every month?"

Li Hengyou shook his head. "In the class, you can only get thirty-four yuan a month."

This made Ji Mo a little confused, "Where did the extra eleven dollars come from?"

Suddenly, Ji Mo was a little shocked, as if he had figured something out: "Is that your monthly salary?"

Li Hengyou nodded slightly.

Ji Mo was speechless, muttering to himself, "Do I look so arrogant? I asked him how many resources he could get in a month, and he thought I wanted to take them all? To satisfy my mood, he even subsidized me with eleven yuan from his own salary." Ji Mo sighed softly, "I don't want your spirit stones. I don't care about this."

"Your spiritual stones are not even a fraction of what Class A spends in a day.

Li Hengyou smiled awkwardly, but didn't dare to speak. He could only scratch his hair helplessly and sighed deeply: "Young Master Mo, how much do you think it should be? We can try our best to get some more."

Li Hengyou knew it very well in his heart, but since it was their first meeting, he couldn't guess what the young master in front of him was thinking. No matter what happened, he had to make sure that he didn't misunderstand him. We could give less, but our attitude couldn't be wrong. We had to satisfy the young master, otherwise he would be in big trouble in the future.

Ji Mo rolled his eyes and said, "I don't want it. I am a young master of a big family after all. Can you please respect me? It's just forty-five spirit stones. When I spend a lot, I use them all in one day. You should keep them for your cultivation. I don't care about this little thing."

"Although my family background is slightly inferior to those young masters, you can't humiliate me like this!"

As he spoke, Ji Mo couldn't help laughing. He picked up his chopsticks and pointed at the dishes: "No more talking, eat quickly, the food is getting cold, don't let Miao Miao down."
