When Ye Feng returned to Jiangnan University, it was already past three in the morning. He was surprised to see that the lights in dorm room 404 were still on.

As he opened the door to room 404, a series of unusual sounds came his way.

Ye Feng paused, almost thinking he had entered the wrong room, but when he turned to look, he couldn't help but burst into laughter.

There was Ling Shaofeng, Xu Ping, and another guy with glasses, all sitting intently in front of the computer, which was displaying some thrilling action.

Their expressions were incredibly excited; they occasionally laughed and chatted excitedly. They hadn't noticed someone had come in.

"Ahem..."

With an 'occasional' critical glance at the entangled figures on the computer screen, Ye Feng cleared his throat aloud.

Hearing the cough, Ling Shaofeng and the others finally realized they were not alone and turned to see who it was, their faces lighting up with joy.

"Boss, you finally decided to come back!"

The three of them immediately shut down the computer and came over to him.

Ye Feng was curious; usually, at this time, these three would be sleeping like pigs. What had them so excited today?

"Aren't you three sleeping?" Ye Feng asked with confusion.

"It's all because we were waiting for you!" Ling Shaofeng replied, and seeing the puzzled look on Ye Feng's face, he continued, "Boss, you've been out early and returning late these past few days, and us four brothers haven't had a drink together in days. We were waiting for you to come back so we could drink till we drop!"

As he spoke, Ling Shaofeng pointed to a corner of the wall where several packs of beer and a few bottles of liquor were stored.

Moved by this gesture, Ye Feng felt a warmth in his heart, appreciating that these guys had waited up so late for him.

Seeing their eager faces, Ye Feng naturally did not want to disappoint them and readily agreed, "Alright! Tonight, we drink till we drop!"

Hooray!

Ling Shaofeng and the others excitedly waved their fists and then began to bustle around, grabbing food and drinks.

After a brief moment of preparation, the four sat down together and began to drink heartily.

"Anything new happening at school these last two days?" Ye Feng downed a shot of liquor and asked the three.

He had been spending all his time with Li Xian lately, having skipped classes and now pondering how to handle the interrogation from class advisor Shu Yuehua.

Hearing this, Ling Shaofeng and the others became excited:

"Boss, just yesterday our university announced the top three gentlemen, the four young masters, and the six campus beauties!"

"The six campus beauties? Who are these six beauties?" Ye Feng immediately asked, curious.

Hearing that Ye Feng didn't ask about the gentlemen or the young masters but went straight for the campus beauties, Ling Shaofeng and the others were somewhat speechless. They could only begin to describe them one by one.

After hearing them out, Ye Feng's expression grew slightly odd. Out of the six campus beauties, he actually knew three of them.

Fang Qingxue, Luo Susu, and Ma Xiaofan, these three were all among the six greatest beauties of the campus, with Fang Qingxue being acclaimed as the foremost among them.

However, all three were beauties of national grace and talent, and their selection as such did not greatly surprise Ye Feng.

"And the three great young masters and the four young lords?" Ye Feng inquired again.

"Boss, did you know that Jiangnan City is divided into eight districts, and among them, our Jiangnan University's district, Shallow Water Bay, is only one? The power dynamics in these eight districts are intricate, with both dark and light forces intertwined.

Among them, the prince of the Fierce Tiger Gang, one of Jiangnan's three major underground forces; the prince of the Zhen Country Group, one of the three wealthiest consortiums; and the prince from Huaihuang Group in Hong Kong, are all gathered in our Jiangnan University, collectively known as the three great young masters.

The four young lords are likewise scions of powerful families, only their family and power backgrounds are somewhat inferior to those of the three great young masters!"

Listening to the explanations by Ling Shaofeng and his group, Ye Feng gradually gained an understanding of the power dynamics at Jiangnan University. The six greatest beauties had been chosen based on their beauty, while the three great young masters and the four young lords were chosen solely based on their family backgrounds!

Jiangnan City is vast, and the various forces within it are extremely complex. Even the dominant gangs of Shallow Water Bay District—Zhen Country Gang and Four Seas Gang—are only considered second-rate forces in the whole city, above which are top-tier gang forces, of which Fierce Tiger Gang is one.

"It seems this university life won't be dull after all!" Ye Feng smiled faintly. In the eyes of ordinary people, a top-tier gang like Fierce Tiger might seem frightening, but to him, it was nothing much.

Not to mention him, even any member of China's top combat team could effortlessly eradicate a powerful force like the Fierce Tiger Gang!

However, at the moment, Ye Feng was not concerned with this; rather, his interest peaked when he heard the name of one of the four young lords, his eyes slightly narrowing: "Fang Lihuang of the Huaihuang Group?"

Ye Feng remembered that Huaihuang Group was the main competitor of Zhen Country Group in a recent bid, and Huaihuang Group was deeply suspected when Li Xian was kidnapped last time.

Upon hearing Ye Feng mention the Huaihuang Group, Ling Shaofeng paused, then began to explain:

"Boss, Huaihuang Group can only be considered a second-tier business force in Jiangnan City, but what needs attention is that its founder is Fang Lihuang, the second elder of the Fang Family, one of the three great families! With the support of the Fang Family behind Huaihuang Group, its strength should not be underestimated. Fang Biao, named as one of the four young lords, is the first cousin of the first campus beauty, Fang Qingxue!"

Listening to Ling Shaofeng's narration, Ye Feng's expression turned somewhat grim. If the Huaihuang Group had the support of the Fang Family, then the kidnapping of Li Xian last time might also involve the Fang Family.

Ye Feng frowned and pondered for a while, deciding not to dwell on it anymore. Since it was not yet confirmed that Huaihuang Group was behind it, he would have to wait and see how things unfolded.

"Come on! Boss, let's drink!"

At that, the four of them raised their glasses and drank heartily together.

The drinking session lasted until four in the morning, with Ling Shaofeng and the others completely knocked out, and even Ye Feng's face showing a tinge of flush.

The four of them went to sleep right after drinking, with Ye Feng also skipping his cultivation practice tonight, choosing instead to lie in bed and rest.

When Ye Feng woke up, it was already past eight in the morning. He rubbed his forehead and got out of bed.

"I have no class this morning, but how should I explain to Shu Yuehua this afternoon!"

Ye Feng felt a headache coming on, especially thinking about how just a couple of days ago he had gotten a bit too close with Shu Yuehua in her home, expecting now to face her towering anger.

Shaking his head, Ye Feng's face was a picture of helplessness as he got ready to wash up.

Just then, a series of rapid footsteps sounded outside dormitory 404, followed by a loud thud as the door was kicked open!
