If there was any food they wish to eat to replenish their energy, they could put in a request with the senior student guarding them outside of the resting room.
As Shen Tianyu bounded back to the resting room, she fell in step with Lun Aoman. "Yo, didn't see you before. So you came, huh?"
"What does that mean? Of course I would come, this is the assessment for my department." Lun Aoman sounded offended but there was a teasing glint in his eyes. "On the other hand, that should be my line. Why are you here? Aren't you registered with the Beast Taming Department?"
Shen Tianyu merely jerked her head in the direction of the lonely Miss Yang walking back to the resting room all alone with a good amount of other next round participants avoiding her. Well, as much as the narrow passageway of the coliseum allowed anyways.
"What about her? She's been messing with you for the whole month and you haven't reacted as she liked, if at all. Did you finally snap?" Lun Aoman gave her a concerned look.
Shen Tianyu rolled her eyes until she thought she would see the wrinkly organ inside her skull. "No, you stupid ignoramus. Didn't you hear about her challenge, or bet, or whatever? Heck, you were IN the classroom when she made the damn fuss."
"Hm... was I? I don't remember. I was probably admiring Ah-Chang." He responded proudly, as if he didn't think it was a shameful thing at all.
"Yeah, you probably were. What a surprise." She held her face in her hand. What else could she expect from the siscon[1] who's reputation was known throughout the whole school before the assessments even came around?
"Do you know? Ah-Chang is so beautiful when she picks up her writing brush with that serious face, as if a goddess about to deal out judgement for sinful mortals. The way her wrist moves just as she'a about to write, the way her fingers twine so elegantly against the dark wood of the brush..." Shen Tianyu decided to drown out Lun Aoman gushing about his sister, treating it as a background white noise. People turned back to stare at them, probably at Lun Aoman, but turned back around soon enough. Everyone was already aware there was a siscon in their year and they concluded it was probably him. She could feel more than one pair of eyes unwavering staring a hole into their skulls though the man next to her doesn't seem to notice at all. She turned around and caught glimpses of a few people turning away from their eyes and choosing to stare at the boring, blank walls instead.
'... Actually now that I think about it, it really is quite disturbing isn't it?' Shen Tianyu thought as she took up an empty bamboo basket and loaded it up with food. The emitter of the white noise was still next to her, babbling on as he dumped food on his plate. She occasionally made sounds of acknowledgement to make it seem like she was listening. She was not. But it was better than letting him loose to bother anyone in sight and praise his sister to the nine heavens. Not that it really mattered since there was only twelve people in the resting room that initially held more than two thousand people. The echo was quite large, but it was better hearing the white noise from far away than up close, wasn't it? Besides, among the people in the room, she was most familiar with his antics and the best equipped to handle it.
She and the white noise machine settled a bit farther away from the food table so as not to bother others topping up their plates. Miss Yang sat adjacent to them and everyone else huddled together in the other two directions.
"Speaking of Xiao Chang[2]." Because his older brother was always either talking about her or more than willing to talk about her. "Did she come to cheer you on today?"
Lun Aoman's face fell, which it rarely did when talking about Lun Chang and tears started to form in his eyes. "She... She..." After a few sniffles, which Shen Tianyu patiently waited through, he ended up bursting into tears anyways, half his food still untouched. "She said, she had a business to run and went to set up a stall on the Main Road!" Wailing like a banshee, he sobbed into his knees, Shen Tianyu discreetly pulled his plate of food away and placed it on another empty seat nearby. She then proceeded to ignore him once again.
When she finished her first basket of food, he finally calmed down enough to only sniffles again. She shoved his plate of unfinished food at him. "Hurry up and eat, the next round will start soon."
When she refilled her bamboo basket and came back, he was poking his food with a sulking expression. "What is it now?" She exasperatedly sat down, rolling her eyes as she did so.
"I don't have an appetite anymore." He pouted as he pushed a steamed jiaozi around his plate.
"Well, it's not my fault if you don't replenish enough energy and embarrass yourself and Xiao Chang. It also won't be my fault when she scolds you for wasting food. And also for being annoying, sticky and unreliable. Again." She shrugged her shoulders as she delved into her second helping.
