Lei Chen was seated on the first level of the Immortals' Loft, chatting with Fan Jin. When Jun Xie and the others went downstairs, they saw him sitting on a chair dressed in lavish robes, a gentle and modest smile on his face. In all fairness, Lei Chen's looks were outstanding. He was handsome but did not give off a frivolous and invasive vibe, which made people feel that he was highly refined but not hard to get close to.
When Fan Jin saw Jun Xie and the others approaching, he immediately stood up and said with a smile: "This is the Yan Country's Crown Prince, His Highness, Lei Chen."
Lei Chen also stood up and nodded to the others, his demeanor gentle.
Qiao Chu and the others bowed slightly and sat down at the side, discreetly sizing up Lei Chen.
Lei Chen's reputation in the Yan Country was extremely good. Be it his courteous attitude towards the talented, or his exceptional aptitude, they were all highly regarded. Lei Chen was only twenty five this year and he had already attained the green spirit. His gift might not be considered top notch, but it was still rather good. Afterall, he was the heir to the throne of a country and it was his brains and not his power that mattered.
"These are the elites from the Zephyr Academy? Every single one of them is outstanding. Headmaster Fan Jin knows how to select talents. "Lei Chen said with a wide smile as he looked at the group, his gaze gentle and not the least bit disrespectful.
Fan Jin replied: "The Crown Prince is too kind with his praise."
"I wonder if all of you are used to living in the Yan Country's Imperial Capital? If you feel any discomfort, please let me know. It is the Yan Country's honour to have all of you here in the Yan Country to participate in the Spirit Battle Tournament, and we should not neglect any of you. "Lei Chen said politely.
The others only nodded and smiled at him, but Qiao Chu turned his body slightly and whispered into Hua Yao's ear: "Why do I feel that the Crown Prince is being a little too kind? Isn't his attitude a little too humble? "
Hua Yao nodded slightly. If it had been before, Lei Chen's politeness would have been understandable. But the Zephyr Academy had fallen into disgrace and Lei Chen was still treating them with such courtesy. It might not seem like much, but it made people think that Lei Chen held them in high regard. But when they thought about it, Lei Chen's presence at the Immortals' Loft today, wouldn't that be throwing the Dragon Slayers Academy's face? The relationship between the Fire Country and the three academies had always been stable and they had never shown favouritism. But Lei Chen's actions had clearly shown that he was biased.
To be able to sit upon the throne of the Crown Prince, and to be able to win such a good reputation within the country, was not something any ordinary person could achieve. If one were to say that Lei Chen really did not have any ulterior motives, they would not believe it even if they were beaten to death.
As Lei Chen and Fan Jin were conversing, the corner of his eyes had discreetly glanced at the silent Jun Xie sitting at the side. When he had been at the auction house earlier today, his attention had been completely drawn by the handsome looking man beside Jun Xie and he had not taken a close look at the delicate looking youth. After knowing that the youth's identity was not ordinary, he had then started to pay more attention to him.
She had originally thought that this young man was only delicate and pretty, but upon closer inspection, she discovered that on that delicate and pretty little face, there was a pair of soul-captivating eyes. They were cold and clear, as if they were isolated from the world, yet they were so bright. It was as if those eyes could bring a trace of coldness when they lightly swept past.
For a youth with average looks to have such a pair of eyes, it really surprised Lei Chen.
To prevent himself from revealing too much of his motives, Lei Chen did not purposely speak to Jun Xie but had been conversing with Fan Jin instead. Occasionally, he would mention Jun Xie in his conversation with the other people from the Zephyr Academy, but he did not seem to place too much importance on Jun Xie.
