Mainly, it talked about the things needed for the start of the school year.

Seeing this, Sui Li’er quickly climbed up on the sofa, holding her little phone, and lifted it up in front of Chen Ling. Tilting her head, she happily said: “Chen Ling~ Look, the mentor sent a message~”

Chen Ling had no interest in looking at whatever message it was.

Sui Li’er leaned in closer, and a fragrance enveloped him. They were quite close, and her hair brushed lightly against Chen Ling’s neck, making him feel ticklish.

〚 Let me talk to the new students about what they need. Attention, new students! I am your mentor, Ellie~ A single Aquarius~ Looking for an Aries guy~ 〛

〚 Just kidding. You can call me Sister Ellie in the future~ Let me briefly explain what you need for the start of the school year: 〛

〚 10,000 curse coins: Covers all tuition fees, materials, book expenses, magical energy costs, etc., for the whole academic year… (Academy subsidy, 10% discount) Meals are completely free. For those who need accommodation, please inform the group. Friendly reminder: Bring your own daily necessities; they are overpriced here. You don’t need to bring too many clothes. In most cases at the academy, you’ll only wear the academy uniform. Of course, during breaks, you can wear whatever you want. 〛

〚 You can bring two sets of clothes, but I believe you’ll prefer our academy uniform.〛

Then she sent a map, the map of the Aries Celestial Academy.

Although the Aries Academy was large, every detail was marked meticulously, giving a clear overview of the whole campus. If someone gets lost with this map, they must be utterly directionally challenged.

She followed that up with some simple school rules. And some points to note, and then lifted the group chat mute.

〚 Oh, by the way, Dean Qitian mentioned that there’s one person in our class without contact information. It seems his name is Chen Ling? Anyone familiar with Chen Ling?〛

〚 If you know him, please help invite him to the group. We have both senior and new students in the class. New students can ask the seniors if they have any questions.〛

〚 If any seniors are bullying you, you can let me know~〛

〚 That’s all I have to say. Have a nice chat. Don’t forget to come to the academy for registration at 12 o’clock the day after tomorrow.〛

“Chen Ling, the mentor is calling you.”

Chen Ling shook his head: “It’s fine, you don’t need to worry about it.”

“Oh~”

Earlier, Qitian Ming wanted Chen Ling’s contact information. But he was scared off with just a glance.

Sui Sui whispered softly: “I don’t have 10,000 curse coins…”

“This will take several lifetimes to pay off…” She pursed her lips and looked at Chen Ling, seemingly not at all worried about the lack of money. In fact, she seemed quite happy; she could give him several lifetimes…

Chen Ling felt a sense of amusement, but his expression remained calm: “Yeah, 10,000 is quite a lot… hm.”

“Ah?” Sui Li’er thought that Chen Ling also didn’t have money, and she started to worry.

Was it because she ate too much usually? Unable to resist, she glanced down and realized that she had indeed eaten too much. Even the bunnies were overfed…

Since getting to know Chen Ling, she had already spent a lot of his money.

“Wu~” Her little mouth immediately turned into a pout filled with self-blame.

Seeing this, Chen Ling lightly chuckled, extending a finger to tap her lips, causing her plump little lips to bounce lightly. “There’s plenty of money, no need to worry.”

Sui Li’er lightly licked her lips where Chen Ling had tapped, feeling a sense of joy: Hehe~ so much fun~

Little did she know, tapping another pair of lips could be even more fun.

“Hm… I, I will definitely make money in the future! I can’t keep letting you spend money!” Once she reached a certain level of strength, Sui Li’er might not need to do anything; money would just flow into her wallet. “I… I’ll give you all the money I make in the future!”

Chen Ling smiled at her words, jokingly saying: “Supporting me, huh?”

“Yeah! In the future, I’ll support you~” Sui Li’er looked at Chen Ling with a serious expression, her gaze firm.

Chen Ling held back a laugh and said: “Alright, I’ll be waiting.”

“Hehe~”

Soon, the seniors in the group chat started chiming in: A person with the nickname “Yellow Crow” popped up: 〚 A-class tradition! New female students’ photos exposed! Hehe~〛

“Ah? Exposing photos…?” Sui Li’er looked at Chen Ling with confusion.

He smiled and said: “No need, he’s just joking.”

“Oh~ Joking? How did you know?”

Chen Ling chuckled softly and replied: “No need to figure it out, you can just ask me.”

“Hehe~ Alright~” It’s so great to have Lord God around~

〚 +1 million points~〛

“His name is so fun~ I want to come up with one too.”

Chen Ling chuckled softly and asked: “What name do you want to use?”

“I won’t tell you~ Hehe~”

All the new students were divided into several classes.

In each class, there were senior students who had entered the Aries Academy before this year but hadn’t yet reached the level of a Grand Mage. Even though they were in the same class, they didn’t necessarily learn the same things. Some classes were separate, while others were taken together.

Some students who lived far from home were already discussing accommodation in the group. Seeing this, Sui Li’er asked: “Do we need to stay in the dormitory? What’s the dormitory like?”

Chen Ling thought for a moment and explained: “A room with several beds, a few people sharing, and you’ll be living together.”

“Oh~ So it seems like we can make a lot of friends.”

Chen Ling nodded without saying anything.

“Hehe, then let’s go to the dormitory~” Sui Li’er happily suggested: “We can make lots and lots of friends together!”

Chen Ling responded calmly: “Boys and girls are housed separately.”

“Oh~”

“Ah!?!” Sui Li’er’s little mouth opened slightly in surprise. But upon further thought, it made sense for boys and girls to be housed separately…

Seeing her reaction, Chen Ling smiled and asked: “What’s wrong?”

“Nothing! Nothing at all!”

Sui Li’er quickly shook her head.

Chen Ling continued: “Do you still want to stay in the dormitory?”

“No, not staying…” Staying in the dormitory meant being separated from Chen Ling!

Chen Ling’s lips curled up, and he raised an eyebrow: “Why not staying anymore? Weren’t you looking forward to making friends?”

“Wu~ I…” Chen Ling hinted, and Sui Li’er’s face immediately turned red. “I, I’m scared!”

“Scared of what?”

“Lately, there have been thunderstorms at night! I’m scared of thunder!”

I’m just scared of thunder, definitely not trying to get you to hold me while sleeping!

Chen Ling laughed and reassured her: “There are many people in the dormitory, no need to be scared.”

“Wu~”

“No, don’t!” Sui Li’er quickly wrapped her arm around Chen Ling’s arm. “It’s just that I’m scared!”

“You can’t force me to stay in the dormitory! Wuwu~” Thinking that she wouldn’t be able to cuddle and sleep with Chen Ling at night, Sui Li’er couldn’t help but feel like crying.

Without Chen Ling, what could she do? Once she was in the dormitory, she wouldn’t be able to secretly watch him while he slept. She wouldn’t be able to lie down on the sofa with him and share a blanket. That would be a disaster for her! She would wake up from nightmares in the middle of the night.

“I don’t want to go…” Sui Li’er pouted and clung to Chen Ling’s arm, worried that he would send her to stay in the dormitory.

Chen Ling smiled and ruffled her hair: “Alright, then you don’t have to go.”

“Hehe~ That’s great… You scared me.” Sui Li’er finally breathed a sigh of relief; staying in the dormitory seemed really scary!

She would even whisper in Chen Ling’s ear at night, begging not to go. “I don’t want to stay in the dormitory! I want to cuddle! Wuwu~” Then she clung to him like an octopus, latching onto his body.

In two days’ time, with the assistance of the Thousand Years Torture service, Chen Ling’s points were once again reset to zero. And it was time for Sui Li’er and Chen Ling to start their schooling.

From the moment they woke up in the morning, Sui Li’er was accumulating points enthusiastically. Hopping around, she happily sang: “Hehe~ Off to the academy~ I’m going~ to the academy~”

Chen Ling’s head was starting to ache from her singing. Although Sui Li’er had a pleasant voice when she sang, definitely better than his own, hearing her repeat that phrase in his ear was still quite exasperating.

Chen Ling decided to open the door so that Min Jiangyun and Shen Jingbing outside could hear as well.

On one side, he had the annoyance of the system talking nonsense, and on the other, Sui Li’er’s auditory onslaught. His head was buzzing… and the points were being earned even faster. Finally, he couldn’t take it anymore and said: “Hey, you’re one of us, stop firing.”

“Huh? What? Who’s firing a gun?”

Chen Ling shook his head: “It’s nothing.”

“Hehe~ When are we setting off?”

“Well, let’s go.” Chen Ling reluctantly got up from the sofa and yawned.

He had spent the first half of last night sneaking kisses and suppressing the system. Then Sui Li’er slept during the second half, which kept waking him up. He didn’t sleep well last night, and now Sui Li’er was singing early in the morning, leaving him feeling exhausted.

“Hehe~” Sui Li’er ran up to Chen Ling and extended her little hand.

Activating the skill, they held hands~

Chen Ling took her hand, and with a flash, they were on their way to the Aries Celestial Academy.
