Chapter 572: Avoid a few months of detours

At first, everyone was a little uncomfortable, wondering if there was poison in the food, in the plate, or if there were needles hidden in the meat.

Everyone felt relieved when the first brave person swallowed it, then said something was wrong and started eating the meal with big mouthfuls,.

"Just eating?"

"This is different from the previous years' trials that I bought for ninety-nine."

"Yeah, I remember that the Tang Sect always makes new recruits bleed a little."

"You know, I heard from my tribe that once they even planted spies among the new students. That class of freshmen was miserable. They couldn't even attend classes in peace."

"The brain of the person who came up with the question is somewhat retarded."

Lin Caixin was choked by the crab legs and coughed several times, coughing out the topic they were discussing, and then said guiltily:
"What they said is quite interesting."

Feng Qin: “…”

"Um... Teacher or Senior Brother, when does our trial start?"

Feng Qin sat at a large table with the freshmen, but his teacher's aura made them afraid to get close to him, so they sat two or three seats away.

The one who was closest to them and had the greatest courage spoke up on behalf of everyone else.

"Trial? Oh yes, it has already started."

already started!
Such a simple sentence made their nerves tense again. Almost everyone stopped what they were doing and talking, and looked at Feng Qin.

There was only one exception, and that was the one who started eating first. He knew that the Tang Sect would not be so bored as to give them food and ask them to obey orders all the time. Anyway, there was no problem with eating, so he shouldn't stop.

"It's not really a test. I want you to remember the names and faces of everyone present during this meal, as well as your first impressions of them."

"What do you mean by first impression?"

"Strength and talent cannot be ambiguous. They must be clearly stated. You must be more confident in your own judgment."

Now, everyone began to look at each other, not knowing how to start.

It is very rude to make reckless comments about your friends' abilities and talents.

It's okay to guess that others are weak, so that they can have the pleasure of pretending to be a pig and eating the tiger.

If the guess is too strong or the other party is really weak, it will be very awkward to meet each other in the future.

Many of the children of aristocratic families knew most of the people here. Generally, they would hang out with people of the same social status. After hesitating for a long time, they finally asked:

"Teacher, this is not good, isn't it a bit..."

"Afraid of offending someone?"

Feng Qin spoke bluntly, and the person asking the question could only nod.

"Now that we are in the Tang Sect, we are all classmates and friends. There is no need to keep some things to yourself. No one will look down on you if you are weak. On the contrary, it will make everyone take better care of you."

Feng Qin used the crab legs as a pen and tapped twice in the air.
"The strong hang out with the strong, and the weak play with the weak. It's good for everyone. Everyone knows your strengths. It's easier for teachers to teach, and it's easier for peers to communicate with each other."

After hearing what he said, those who were shy gradually relaxed. Generally, those who would struggle with such issues are those who are relatively strong.

People who are truly talented will not have nothing better to do than look down on their fellow disciples. On the contrary, they are worried about being misunderstood and afraid that people will think they are pretending.

With Feng Qin's words as a foundation, some people took the lead in breaking down their reservations and started chatting with people around them.

After a while, everyone started to leave their seats and walk around, getting to know each other.

“It’s like officialdom.”

Lin Caixin's mouth was full of food. After hearing that the trial Feng Qin had in mind was to have a big meal, she knew that the best meal in her life was about to appear in the cafeteria.

This is even rarer than the opening of the caves in the fairy tales. It may only open once in your lifetime.

“We can’t learn intrigue, but we can learn the creed that knowing each other in the officialdom means one more friend and one less enemy.”

After breaking the awkward barrier of strength, everyone chatted more freely. There were hundreds of newcomers, and it would definitely not be enough time to greet everyone during a meal. So gradually, small groups emerged.

They chatted with each other about other people's abilities. When the topic was about others, they could understand each other much faster. Gradually, the strong ones started to stick together, and those with average talents also gathered together. There was no hostility between them. This was a group that formed naturally.

Originally, it would take at least several months of classes for such a group to gradually form. However, because of Feng Qin’s two task requirements, they avoided several months of detour.

Tang Xueli and other teachers were watching this scene from a distance.

"It seems to be better than fighting and killing."

"Times have changed. People now understand the purpose of the trial. All that stuff is just for passing the test."

"Yes, these people were already discussing how to pass the trial when they first joined. This is completely contrary to the original purpose of our trial."

"It's important to keep up with the times. At least it's better than Werewolf."

"I get annoyed when I mention Werewolf. Lin Caixin and Tao Tao are really..."

Tao Tao: "..."

She didn't even sit down to eat or drink, but she still got caught in the crossfire.

By the end of the meal, everyone had submitted a satisfactory answer.

"I was worried that you would think I was pretending."

The talented and well-trained disciple scratched his head and was a little embarrassed to talk to them.

"Why are you pretending? If we don't understand something, we'll still expect you to teach us. We can't wait to have a good relationship with you."

"Hahaha, no problem, no problem. If you don't understand something, just ask. I can explain it clearly and I won't hide anything."

After eating, Feng Qin gave all the tables to Lin Caixin and asked her to help with the statistics.

After eating and drinking her fill, she felt embarrassed to just sit there and do nothing.

Everyone gathered in the empty field, feeling so relaxed that I was a little embarrassed to ask:

"Teacher, are there no other problems for us to deal with?"

"No, I'll start my classes tomorrow as normal. Don't think too much. Just get familiar with the environment today!"

"Eh…"

"what…"

"Why!"

The brothers who had been hiding aside and wanting to watch the fun stood up angrily, very dissatisfied.

"Junior brother, this is not fair. We were all beaten up."

"Yes, Junior Brother, we feel unbalanced when you do this."

"I want to fight the new guy, I want to fight!"

Newbies: "... Junior Brother?"

Feng Qin's expression was serious. "In the Tang Sect, please call me Teacher!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the sky and the earth changed color. A cold wind blew across the entire open space, and the chill was biting. The newlyweds took a step back, their hearts filled with shock.

The teacher in front of me actually has such an aura.

Lin Caixin was stunned at first, then her eyes lit up, only Tao Tao complained:

"Boring, is this how the talisman is used?"

Feng Qin stood with his hands behind his back, secretly drawing several talismans to create a perfect atmosphere.

The senior brothers did not give Feng Qin any face. They grabbed Feng Qin's limbs and shouted that they would vent their anger on him.

It showed the newcomers what it means to be disrespectful to teachers.
