It was obvious that the seating arrangements for the banquet were made according to the strength of the various academies, and it was understandable that it was arranged based on strength. But it was not known whether it was only this year, or it had always been like this.
The servant led Jun Xie and his companions to the seats beside Lei Chen. The Zephyr Academy's seats were right beside Lei Chen, and that surprised many of them. It must be known that the Zephyr Academy was no longer what it used to be, but Lei Chen was still treating them with such courtesy, which was rather unexpected.
"Little brother Jun is here." When Lei Chen saw Jun Xie, he actually stood up to greet him, and his actions made everyone's jaws drop!
It must be known that when the disciples from the Dragon Slayers Academy and the War Banner Academy had arrived, Lei Chen had only nodded in acknowledgment, and had not shown the slightest intention to stand up. But now, Lei Chen had not only stood up, he had even called out "little brother Jun"!
At that moment, everyone's gazes were immediately focused on the figure of Jun Xie whom Lei Chen was giving special treatment to.
They suddenly saw a youth with delicate features, with a cold demeanor. His eyes scanned Jun Xie from head to toe, but they could not see anything special about the little brat.
The little brat looked to be only about fourteen or fifteen years of age, skinny and small, looking weak and frail, his looks not particularly outstanding. But why had Lei Chen treated him so differently?
All the youths who had been trying to get the Crown Prince to notice them at this banquet, to soar through the ranks, were suddenly feeling rather aggrieved. They had tried so hard to please Lei Chen, but they had only gotten a nod and a smile from Lei Chen. But this little brat had a dead face on his face, and Lei Chen was treating him with such courtesy!
In an instant, all the youths who had been trying to curry favor with Lei Chen subconsciously felt a tinge of enmity towards Jun Xie.
However, Jun Xie merely glanced at Lei Chen, not reacting in the slightest to his "warm welcome", and just glanced at him briefly before turning his eyes away.
Lei Chen did not mind Jun Xie's cold demeanor. He had specially sent people to investigate and the disciples who had left the Zephyr Academy had confirmed that Jun Xie's personality had always been cold to the extreme. Jun Xie had always been like that in the Zephyr Academy and he had even heard of the "legendary" stories of the little brat in the Zephyr Academy.
He was misunderstood by others, but he never argued. He soared to the sky, but he kept a low profile.
Lei Chen knew that the number of people under the Heavens who knew about the Spirit Healing Technique were few and far between. The Spirit Healer faculty that Gu Li Sheng had established had only accepted a small number of disciples and those disciples were only average in terms of their proficiency in the Spirit Healing Technique. But for Jun Xie, who had been able to make Gu Li Sheng praise his talent in front of so many people, Jun Xie was someone who was truly valuable.
Lei Chen did not mind a person who was worth roping in had a strange personality.
As long as she could be of use to him, anything was fine.
Qiao Chu and the others followed suit and sat themselves down. As the banquet had only invited the disciples who had participated in the Spirit Battle Tournament, the entire banquet was filled with mostly youthful and exuberant youths.
Lei Chen saw that Jun Xie had returned to his seat and he sat back down as well. Sitting beside Lei Chen, a rotund and well-dressed man suddenly leaned close to Lei Chen and said: "My Royal Brother, why must you be so courteous to the people from the Zephyr Academy? The Zephyr Academy has already fallen to such a state and it is already benevolent of you to give them a place to sit at the banquet. Why must you still be so courteous to them?"
