Chapter 40: Serving size

"Star cultivators visualize star gods and bathe in starlight. Their Qi and blood can easily exceed 100. Each of them has a physical strength many times stronger than that of ordinary people."

Zhao Yuan said: "However, as their physique becomes stronger, it becomes more difficult for them to control and use their own strength. Therefore, star refiners will improve their control over themselves through martial arts. Moreover, better control of their own strength will also make it easier to bathe in more starlight, thus making their physique stronger. This is a virtuous cycle."

Li Yin nodded.

Compared to ordinary people who work very hard to break through the realm and only improve their physical strength a little, star cultivators can increase their physical strength rapidly by just visualizing the star gods and bathing in the starlight.

"For Star Refiners, improving physical strength is never a problem. The problem is how much their bodies can accommodate and how much they can control."

Zhao Yuan said, "The upper limit of what can be contained and controlled is related to their martial arts realm. For example, the amount of energy and blood that a master who has tempered his internal organs can contain and control is obviously not the same as the amount that a martial artist who has just practiced strength can contain and control. Because of this, the star cultivators will ask the masters of the Gang training and even the martial saints of the spirit training for advice on how to move energy, thus forming a master-disciple relationship."

He looked at Shang Feng, who was the center of attention as soon as he appeared. "When Envoy Shang successfully visualized the Star God, Master personally visited Envoy Shang's residence and lived there for three years, teaching him how to practice strength and hold the elixir. Envoy Shang also remembered this kindness, and every time Master returned to Canglong City, he would take the initiative to entertain him and treat him like a mentor."

As he spoke, he felt a little emotional.

Not every star cultivator who has fully comprehended the power of strength and elixir will feel respect for the master who taught them.

For many Star Refiners, martial arts is merely a supplement to the Star Refiner system, and the relationship between them is just an ordinary transaction.

The transaction was completed and both parties parted ways.

Some people even worry that the masters who taught them strength and elixir power will use this to curry favor with them and use their reputation to cheat others. They will also stop them from spreading the transaction in detail, and will not allow them to have any contact after the teaching is over.

Shang Feng's respect for teachers is rare among star refiners.

At this time, Shang Feng, who was greeted by Cao Tianyou, seemed to have noticed something and looked towards Zhao Yuan and Li Pin.

Zhao Yuan quickly reminded him secretly: "You must respect the Star Refiners and not have any thoughts of confrontation."

pity…

His prompt was obviously a minute late.

Shang Feng's gaze has already fallen on Li Pin.

He seemed a little surprised.

But when he saw that Li Yin was so young, he couldn't help but smile.

Seems to understand what's in his mind.

He didn't care.

He has seen many young people like this since he became a Star Refiner.

Even though he is less than thirty years old.

Under the leadership of Cao Tianyou, he and Judy walked into the banquet hall.

When passing by Li Pin, Cao Tianyou wanted to introduce Li Pin to Shang Feng, but he didn't know how to say it.

In the end, he secretly gave Li Pin a reassuring look and continued to talk and laugh with Shang Feng.

Zhao Yuan followed behind the group and gave Li Yin a bitter smile: "It was too late for me to remind you."

"I don't blame you. Even if you reminded me, it would be difficult for me to change my mindset in a short period of time."

Li Pin said.

Zhao Yuan opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but in the end he could only say, "We were negligent."

Then he sighed, "You have become a Dan-holding Martial Master at such a young age, and you are expected to stand out in the Jiangzhou Competition in the future. It is necessary to maintain a sharp mindset, but... when facing a Star Refiner, proper respect is essential... To visualize the Star God, one must have a pure mind, even a pure heart, so Star Refiners often act on impulse... Do you understand what I mean?"

Li Yin nodded.

As for what he was thinking, no one knew.

But what’s interesting is that Li Bin was originally brought directly by Zhao Yuan to the round table on the right, which was the seat where Cao Tianyou, Tian Feiyu, Jiang Qingyue and others were sitting.

But this time, he was brought back to the round table on the left by Zhao Yuan.

Although everyone at the table is an important figure and has a close relationship with the Five Elements Sect, their weight is obviously less than that of the table on the right.

“Even if a Star Refiner has a pill, the pressure he exudes from his body cannot be completely dissipated. If you are full of respect and have no intention of resisting, you will only feel that the other party is in a high position and his every move is full of heavy meaning. But if you have any ideas in your mind... you will feel uncomfortable staying at that table.”

Qi Dongyuan, who was in charge of entertaining this table of distinguished guests, came to Li Yin and explained in a low voice: "So the master asked me to arrange you here first, so that you won't feel uncomfortable eating at the table."

"I understand."

Li Yin nodded: "It's me who made Master Cao embarrassed."

"We are the ones who should apologize. We were inconsiderate. After the big banquet is over, we can have a small banquet within the Five Elements Sect."

Qidong is a long way away.

"good."

Li Pin did not dwell on this topic.

As soon as Shang Feng and Judy arrived, the banquet began.

It seemed that the two of them were the real protagonists of the banquet, and even the birthday boy Cao Tianyou had to stand aside.

Of course, Shang Feng and Judy also gave Cao Tianyou enough face and always tried not to steal the limelight from the birthday boy.

After Cao Tianyou came to the stage to speak and thanked the guests, all kinds of fine wines and delicacies were presented.

There were only six long tables and two round tables, and the number of guests was no more than 150, but there were as many as fifty or sixty attendants standing on both sides of the venue.

Almost every two guests have a servant serving them.

In terms of hospitality, Xingyao International Center did a great job.

After the banquet started, the invited stars came on stage one after another to perform.

About twenty minutes into the banquet, a woman in a bright purple dress with a long skirt came on stage to sing.

Li Yin saw her photo when he entered the hotel.

It is Xingdian Entertainment’s hot new star—An Youran.

The guests at the long table were better, with many appreciating An Youran's performance, but none of the guests at the two round tables paid much attention to her.

Everyone seized the opportunity to communicate closely with the people around them, laughing and chatting happily.

From time to time, people would go to the table on the right in pairs to toast and wish the old man a happy birthday.

Of course, after wishing the old man a happy birthday, Judy and Shang Feng must offer them a drink.

Moreover, only people at this table and in the first row of the long table are eligible.

When the people in the first row had almost finished toasting, Judy, Shang Feng and Cao Tianyou took the initiative to toast everyone in the room, announcing the end of the toasting session.

After that, any toasts will be made only among the people at each table.

Li Pin saw this scene and finally understood the gap between Changfeng Martial Arts School and Wuxing Sect.

Judging from their personal connections alone, the two sides are not on the same level at all.

The lively atmosphere in the venue lasted for nearly two hours before gradually dissipating.

Cao Tianyou, Tian Feiyu, Jiang Qingyi and others accompanied Zhu Di and Shang Feng.

Zhao Yuan returned and said to Li Yin with a smile, "Don't rush back today. There will be a small banquet in the evening. In addition, we have booked a room for you in the hotel and arranged an event for you. You won't be disappointed."
