When Sui Li’er looked at Chen Ling’s direction, Yan Ran also followed her gaze. She also wanted to know if Chen Ling had come or not.

However, his invisibility technique was something that couldn’t be shielded in this world. Even Sui Li’er couldn’t see him.

When Sui Li’er looked over, all she could see was the person next to her with their slightly open mouth, looking at her. That person’s face seemed to say, “Wow, so beautiful.”

But she didn’t feel happy because of that. She just wanted to see Chen Ling. Unable to resist, she pinched his arm that was still in her hand. She could truly feel it. This meant that Chen Ling hadn’t left, which made her feel much more relieved.

Upon seeing this, Chen Ling also utilized the system and whispered a voice that only she could hear: “I’m here.”

The voice echoed in Sui Li’er’s mind, filling her with joy: “Yeah~”

Then she pulled his arm and walked onto the testing platform. She held on even tighter than before because she was afraid that if she let go, she wouldn’t be able to find Chen Ling like before.

Chen Ling smiled and said: “Do you want to let go first? Holding on like this makes you look silly in other people’s eyes.”

“No~” Sui Li’er gritted her teeth, as if she were acting cute. After speaking, she hugged him even tighter. In the eyes of others, her posture looked strange.

It was as if she were hugging thin air. Now, Chen Ling and her previous positions were completely swapped. Before, no one could see Sui Li’er, and Chen Ling seemed like a fool. Now, it had become Sui Li’er’s turn, but she didn’t mind at all. No matter what, she wouldn’t let go of him.

However, there was a difference. Before, although people couldn’t see Sui Li’er, but all memories would be rationalized because of her curse of non-existence. But Chen Ling wouldn’t be rationalized. Yan Ran, seeing the situation, guessed that Chen Ling might be invisible. So she asked Sui Li’er: “Are you the only one here? What about Chen Ling?”

“Hmm?” Sui Li’er, seeing her idol suddenly talking to her, instinctively glanced at Chen Ling next to her, even though she couldn’t see him. Then she stuttered: “He, he didn’t come~”

Yan Ran squinted her eyes, thinking: He is right beside you, huh?

Chen Ling, seeing the situation, felt helpless. This little girl’s lie was too obvious.

Although Yan Ran was surprised that Chen Ling’s invisibility spell could evade her senses, she didn’t expose him. She just smiled lightly and said: “Alright then, you can take the test. Stand in front of that machine for testing mana response, and input your mana.”

“Yeah~” Sui Li’er pulled Chen Ling towards the machine, paying no attention to Yan Ran beside the testing platform.

Yan Ran kept her gaze fixed on the empty air that Sui Li’er was holding. Chen Ling did notice, but he still had no intention of revealing himself.

The machine had a palm print, and the test subject just needed to place their hand on it and input their mana. Sui Li’er’s little hand was probably only half the size of the palm print, small and adorable. She lightly pressed it on top.

Before she placed her hand on it, Chen Ling had already used the system to clean it thoroughly. This was a thoughtful protection from someone with a slight cleanliness obsession.

Sui Li’er held Chen Ling with one hand while placing her other hand on the machine. She closed her eyes and controlled the input of her mana. Then, a blue light flashed on the projected screen above the machine.

People around looked up, but their expressions showed confusion at the same time.

Chen Ling also squinted his eyes.

Because there was no information displayed on the projected screen!

【Name:…, Age:… Magic Level:… Mana Energy:… Mana Affinity:…. Ranking:】

There was nothing, just like a blank slate.

Yan Ran: ???

The machine must have malfunctioned.

At this moment, Sui Li’er also looked up, wanting to see her results.

“Hmm? Why is there nothing?” She looked at Chen Ling with confusion, and her heart skipped a beat: Oh no, I can’t look at him, it would expose everything!

Then she quickly turned her head towards Yan Ran beside her: “Um, why is there nothing for me?”

Yan Ran furrowed her brows and thought for a moment: “Try the machine next to it.”

She didn’t suspect that it might be because Sui Li’er had a low realm. After all, she couldn’t sense any mana response from her at all.

But even with a low realm, the machine should still display something. At the very least, it should show a name since everyone’s fingerprints were registered with the Mage Association.

Sui Li’er was no exception. Someone from the orphanage would go to check every month. Everyone had to have an identity, and orphans were no different. This was to keep track of the vast array of mana stars and various curses. Everything had to be recorded; otherwise, the world would easily fall into chaos.

This testing machine directly read the information from the file database based on fingerprints. But even so, nothing was displayed.

Chen Ling quickly realized that it might be because of the curse, causing others to not see anything. So he could only use some special means.

Therefore, when the information was presented on the big screen, Chen Ling directly used the system to imprint a layer of holographic projection on it.

【Name: Sui Li’er, Age: 18, Magic Level: Intermediate Mage, Mana Energy: 6000, Mana Affinity: 50, Ranking: 220】

Of course, this data was fabricated by Chen Ling. Sui Li’er was only a mid-level mage apprentice and still far from being an intermediate mage. Next, he planned to infiltrate the ranking system of the twelve academies and modify the actual rankings inside. For now, it would be enough.

Since Sui Li’er wanted to enter the academy, Chen Ling would make sure she got into the best one. Regardless of the rules in this world, rules were made by people, and he was a god.

However, just as Chen Ling thought it was over…

Sui Li’er expressed her confusion: “Weird… why isn’t my name there?”

Chen Ling was taken aback and looked up: “You can’t see it?”

At this moment, people around couldn’t help but speak up: “This person doesn’t have a name?”

Chen Ling furrowed his brows. He could clearly see Sui Li’er’s name, but looks like others couldn’t see it.

Why was that? Was the curse so powerful? Even Chen Ling’s system projection didn’t work? Why could others see the image of Sui Li’er created by the system, but they couldn’t see her name?

“But her ranking is so high!”

Someone spoke up,

“She’s so beautiful and talented! The new goddess! From today, she’s my goddess!”

“Goddess! What’s your name!?”

At this moment, Yan Ran also walked over and glanced at the projected screen: “Weird, why isn’t there a name.”

“Um, I don’t know either.” Sui Li’er lightly bit her lip, feeling a bit lost.

Yan Ran asked: “Well, what’s your name? Let me write it down for you.”

“Um, my name is Sui Li’er~”

“What?”

“Sui Li’er~”

“What?” Yan Ran’s face remained expressionless. Sui Li’er spoke quite loudly, but she seemed deaf to it.

Sui Li’er: ???

Chen Ling: ???

“I, I’m Sui Li’er!”

Yan Ran suddenly smiled: “Are you shy? It’s okay. Your performance is excellent. I’ll note it down for you so you can enter the elimination round.”

Sui Li’er was taken aback and instinctively looked towards Chen Ling. She couldn’t see him, but Chen Ling had a look of astonishment on his face. He suddenly understood that those people weren’t unable to see Sui Li’er’s name. They could see, but because of the curse, they overlooked it.
