Chen Yan deliberately sat for a full thirty seconds, watching as the older students below him whispered among themselves. He looked calmly at each student, and when the buzz gradually subsided, he smiled gently.

Chen Yan spoke softly. Born with a clean and handsome appearance and a tall figure, his gentle speech easily garnered a bit of affection from others. Gradually, the students stopped talking. They were not yet ready to dispel their doubts and dissatisfaction but were willing to listen to what this young instructor had to say.
