Chapter 581 Monster Trainer Exam (1)

Lin Fan didn't want to get involved in this matter at first since he knew that it was troublesome, but he felt that he should pay Qiao Yi Fei back, which was why he said these words.

After all, there was no reason for her to come along with him to the Tamers Guild, but she still came anyway.

Since she had done this kindness for him, then the least he could do was stand up for her.

Not to mention, the tone of this young man had annoyed him slightly.

The young man's face turned redder than a beet as his face contorted with anger.

Lin Fan was surprised to see this, he never expected this young man's ego to be this fragile…

That young man was about to explode, but then he stopped himself when he noticed that the two old men had stopped talking to watch the two of them. He forced himself to stay calm before glaring at Lin Fan and saying, "You better watch yourself. Don't let this young master catch you alone or you'll regret it."

Then he walked back over to where the old man called Old Bai was standing.

He really wanted to vent all his anger, but he couldn't since he was in front of these two old men. After all, the two of them had very high positions in the Tamers Guild and he was looking to be recognized by the Tamers Guild as one of their talented Monster Trainers.

It wouldn't do if he were to offend either of them over this small matter right now.

Seeing that the show they were waiting for wasn't going to happen, the two old men finished their "conversation" before heading off to the reception desk to pick up a form and went off in different directions.

As they were leaving the young man following Old Bai didn't forget to turn back to glare at Lin Fan.

Once they were gone, Huang Gan came over to Lin Fan to hand him the form before saying, "Just fill that out and give it to the receptionists, they'll give you a token and tell you when the exam is. It'll be in the afternoon, so you'll have some time to prepare."

Lin Fan took the form, but he didn't fill it out as he asked, "Who was that just now?"

Huang Gan looked in the direction that the two people had just gone in before turning back to say, "That's the other vice president of the Tamers Guild, Bai Chen. The one beside him is a talented young trainer that he brought back for the test, so you'll be taking the test with him this afternoon. If I remember correctly, he's from the Fei Family of Silver Vale City, but I can't remember what his name was…"

Qiao Yi Fei cut in at this time by saying, "It's Fei Jun."

Huang Gan suddenly revealed a look like he had remembered something as he said, "That's right, it's Fei Jun."

Lin Fan however was already looking at Qiao Yi Fei.

Seeing his gaze, she turned away at first, but then she turned back to say, "I went to Silver Vale City with grandfather for an errand one time and we met the Fei Family. Since then, he hasn't stopped bothering me, so I try to avoid him as much as possible."

Then after lowering her head for a few seconds, she said in a hesitant voice, "Thank you."

As soon as she said this, she didn't wait for Lin Fan to respond as she turned around, but that was more because she didn't want him to see the blush that was on her face.

When he had stood up for her earlier, there had been this same blush on her face.

After all, it was hard not to feel moved when a handsome man stood up for you, especially when you weren't expecting anything in the first place.

Lin Fan revealed a bitter smile, but he didn't say anything else.

Huang Gan revealed a smile when he saw this and he couldn't help thinking, "Ah, to be young again."

But since he was the one leading them, he still took the lead to say, "How about we get some food first? The exam is in the afternoon, so there's no need for us to stay here and wait."

Lin Fan raised the form in his hand and said, "I haven't handed in the form yet."

Huang Gan revealed a surprised look before saying, "Oh, right. Then little friend Lin, you can fill that out first and then we'll go have some lunch."

Lin Fan nodded before heading over to a table where writing utensils had been put.

The process of signing up didn't take long since Huang Gan was with Lin Fan and as staff of the Tamers Guild, it would be strange if the receptionists didn't recognize their vice president. Seeing that Lin Fan was with vice president Huang, they quickly processed his form and gave him a token along with instructions on how to get to the exam this afternoon.

Once he finished signing up, Huang Gan brought the two of them out to have a meal, but he didn't bring them to a fancy restaurant. Instead he brought them out to a noodle stand right by the entrance of the Tamers Guild.

Qiao Yi Fei happily sat down at the noodle stand and quickly ordered some noodles for herself.

Meanwhile Huang Gan could see the surprised look on Lin Fan's face, so he said, "You should try this place, the noodles really are quite good."

Lin Fan didn't mind eating at a place like this, he was just surprised that someone like Huang Gan would want to eat here. But what surprised him even more was how quickly Qiao Yi Fei had accepted eating at this place.

After all, her grandfather was the Ghost Chef, so he thought that she would disdain eating at a place like this.

He sat down beside her and put in his order before asking her, "Are you sure you should be eating at a place like this?"

Qiao Yi Fei had been busy eating her bowl of noodles that came, so she said while slurping away, "Why wouldn't I eat here?"

Lin Fan then asked, "Is the food at this place up to your standard? Isn't it bad for your grandfather's reputation if you eat stuff like this?"

Qiao Yi Fei gave a snort and said, "Why wouldn't it be up to my standard? It's not like I'm that special. Anyway, I'm with uncle Huang, so there's nothing to worry about since I'm out for a meal with him. It's not like I was the one that chose this place, so why would it affect my grandfather's reputation?"

But then Qiao Yi Fei realized who she was talking to and turned to see him sitting right beside her.

The noodle stand was already small enough and the seating was quite close together, which meant that Lin Fan's face wasn't that far away from hers.

When she saw it this close, she was caught off guard and couldn't help flinching back. After realizing what she did, she stood up with her bowl of noodles and moved to the other side of the table where Huang Gan was sitting.

When this was over, there was a strange atmosphere in the air that wouldn't go away.

Huang Gan had a smile as he thought the same thing from earlier, but Lin Fan had a bitter smile on his face when he saw Qiao Yi Fei turning away from him.

He could tell that something had changed between the two of them, but there was nothing he could do about it, so he just stopped thinking about it.

When the meal was over, Lin Fan had to admit that Huang Gan had good tastes. The noodles that he had here were some of the best noodles that he had ever had in his life, it was even better than most of the five star meals that he had in his previous life. It was something that far surpassed the level of cuisine that should have been possible with the level of food culture in this upper realm.

While there was a more reliable source of food in this upper realm compared to the lower realm, cooking techniques still hadn't developed as much among the normal chefs. High class cooking techniques were in the hands of experts like Qiao Yi Fei's grandfather, the Ghost Chef and wasn't spread among the commoners which the owner of this noodle store was.

The only reason the noodles tasted so good was because of the ingredients…

All the ingredients were plants and meat that contained life energy which made them taste much more fresh compared to normal ingredients.

After they finished their meal, the three of them headed back to the hall designated for the Monster Trainer Exam, but this time the hall was much more packed compared to this morning.

In the morning, people would come at random times to sign up for the Monster Trainer Exam, so there wouldn't be many people in this hall at the same time. However, when the time for the exam came, this hall would be filled with all those people who had signed up and that number wasn't a small number.

Looking around, Lin Fan could see that there were over a hundred people taking the exam today and this was an exam that was held almost every day, so it could be seen how popular the Monster Trainer occupation was. On the other hand though, it could also mean that there was a high rate of failure for this exam…
