Chapter 292: Chapter 292 Green Sun Garden Chapter 292: Chapter 292 Green Sun Garden Personal information registration complete, Jing Yan received a high-level student identity token and then bade farewell to Hall Master Lin Yan.

He carried his identity token to the nearby hall to receive the high-level student attire.

The staff in the side hall were all dumbfounded after checking Jing Yan’s identity token.

Even within Dao Yi Academy, it was rare to see such a young high-level student.

At least, for the staff working in this side hall of the Affairs Hall, some of whom had been working there for decades, it was their first time seeing a high-level student under twenty.

After collecting the attire, Jing Yan and Zhang Min left the Affairs Hall.

“Sister, why have you stopped talking?” Jing Yan noticed some changes in Zhang Min’s demeanor, which had become somewhat restrained.

“Ah…

No, not at all!” Zhang Min shook her head repeatedly.

Although she wouldn’t admit it, anyone could see that her attitude towards Jing Yan now included some awe.

This was evident from how she consistently walked slightly behind Jing Yan.

“Sister, I feel like you’re not as enthusiastic towards me as before,” Jing Yan sighed.

Zhang Min’s face changed slightly.

She was just an intermediate student, while Jing Yan was a high-level student.

Within Dao Yi Academy, the distinction between student levels was clear cut.

Essentially, a student’s level was directly linked to their personal strength.

Intermediate students held a much lower status in front of high-level students.

Hence, Zhang Min became much quieter, feeling somewhat at a loss, unsure of how to behave around Jing Yan.

Previously, she had been enthusiastic and lively towards Jing Yan, because she didn’t know he was a Martial Artist who had won the Golden Order and entered Dao Yi Academy as a high-level student directly.

She thought Jing Yan was just a common newcomer, at most an Early Innate Realm Martial Artist, so she felt free to act casually.

“Sister, how about we go back to how we were before, and you don’t consider me a high-level student?” Jing Yan said with a smile.

“Even though I am a high-level student, maybe soon I’ll be an Inner Court student—but it doesn’t matter.

Sister, I consider you a friend, and identity shouldn’t be a barrier between friends.”

Hearing this, Zhang Min looked at Jing Yan.

In fact, Zhang Min was naturally cheerful, which could be seen from her previous enthusiasm towards Jing Yan, a newcomer.

She stared at Jing Yan, contemplating whether his words were trustworthy.

After a moment, she relaxed.

Jing Yan seemed to have no reason to purposely deceive her, especially not Zhang Min.

She was just an intermediate student.

If Jing Yan really looked down on her, he wouldn’t need to pretend to treat her as a friend.

Zhang Min’s smile returned to her face.

She patted her chest, a relieved expression on her face.

“Jing Yan, let me show you where you will be staying!”

“I live in Green Sun Garden.

Why don’t you stay there temporarily?

Although, you might move to Dao Yi Mountain in just a few days,” Zhang Min said, looking at Jing Yan.

“Okay!” Jing Yan nodded.

Green Sun Garden was a residence for Dao Yi Academy’s Outer Court students.

Within the Academy, there were dozens of such residences, with Green Sun Garden being just one of them.

Of course, these places all had different names.

Zhang Min took Jing Yan to Green Sun Garden and introduced him to the garden master, Hua Kaizhi, who immediately arranged accommodation for Jing Yan—a separate small courtyard.

This small courtyard was right next to Zhang Min’s.

“Sister, we’re neighbors now!” Jing Yan stood in front of the small courtyard, smiling at Zhang Min.

“Yes.

Jing Yan, if there’s anything you need help with, just call me.

You’re new to Dao Yi Academy, so you might find some things unfamiliar,” Zhang Min said.

“Definitely, if I need anything, I won’t be polite to you,” Jing Yan said, his eyes firm.

“Hey, Zhang Min!” While they were talking, several figures approached from the opposite direction.

The person in the lead called out to Zhang Min.

Zhang Min saw who it was and her eyebrows slightly furrowed.

“Senior Qian Bo!” Zhao Min bowed slightly towards him.

“Zhang Min, who is this kid?” Qian Bo first smiled at Zhang Min, then his gaze landed on Jing Yan, asking.

“Is he a newcomer?

We’ve had quite a few newcomers in Green Sun Garden recently.

Kid, what’s your name?” Qian Bo didn’t wait for Zhang Min to respond, continuing on to ask for Jing Yan’s name.

Jing Yan frowned.

This Martial Artist named Qian Bo, judging by his attire, was presumably a high-level student of Dao Yi Academy.

Jing Yan had just received the same style of attire from the Affairs Hall but hadn’t had the chance to change, still wearing the blue robe he had on before entering the academy.

Jing Yan frowned because this Qian Bo had an unpleasant tone, full of arrogance.

Several other Martial Artists were following Qian Bo, their attire marked the same as Zhang Min’s, indicating that they were likely intermediate students.

In the Outer Court of Dao Yi Academy, low-level students were the most numerous, followed by intermediate students, with high-level students being the least.

In total, high-level students might make up only one-twentieth to one-thirtieth of all the students.

“My name is Jing Yan!” Jing Yan replied.

Though this Martial Artist named Qian Bo had an arrogant demeanor, Jing Yan still responded to his question.

“Jing Yan, hello, welcome to Green Sun Garden!” Qian Bo waved his arm, a smile on his face.

However, his smile did not seem friendly; it appeared somewhat sinister.

“Jing Yan, let’s go.

I’ll show you the Cultivation Pool,” Zhang Min said to Jing Yan, clearly not interested in interacting with this high-level student named Qian Bo.

“Okay!” Jing Yan responded.

Even if Zhang Min hadn’t suggested visiting the Cultivation Pool, he wouldn’t have wanted to interact much with Qian Bo.

His first impression of the man was not good.

The Cultivation Pool, also present in Divine Wind Academy, was a place designed for Martial Artists to cultivate.

Cultivating there yielded twice the results with half the effort, as the pool contained a Formation that enhanced the concentration of Primordial Energy.

In the Cultivation Pool, Martial Artists could absorb Primordial Energy much faster.

The Cultivation Pool was a significant Cultivation Resource within the academy, one of the most cherished spots for many who joined the Three Major Academies.

“Haha, what’s the rush?

We weren’t done talking yet, no need to hurry away!” As Zhang Min led Jing Yan away, Qian Bo, squinting his eyes, stepped forward, blocking their path.
