The new students from the other areas were practically green with envy when they saw Mu Ling, the seductive instructor.

"Come on. I'll take you to the residential area assigned to you."

With a wave of her slender hand, Mu Ling swayed her way down toward the area below Northern Cang Spirit Academy.

"Wives, let's go too."

Lin Suchou took Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan's delicate hands.

Luo Li shot him an embarrassed glare, while Wen Qingxuan naturally wrapped herself around Lin Suchou's arm.

Looking at the two women, Lin Suchou could not help letting out a strange jie jie jie laugh in his heart.

His shameless cohabitation life was starting now!

The vast crowd of several thousand followed Mu Ling down from the stone platform. One cultivation hall after another swiftly receded beneath their feet.

After flying west for around ten minutes, Mu Ling gradually stopped. She pointed her slender finger at the vast area below and smiled. "This is where you'll be living."

Lin Suchou looked over. Amid lush greenery and scattered lakes, clusters of pavilions were laid out like stars across the landscape.

"Mm, not bad. Trees, water, and two stunning beauties."

After looking it over, Lin Suchou nodded in approval.

"Hehe, be careful, or Luo Li and I will live in one building while you live in another."

Wen Qingxuan smiled sweetly, but her words were full of threat.

"Do you have enough Spirit Value for that?"

Lin Suchou looked at her and smiled as well.

"Spirit Value?"

Wen Qingxuan was puzzled. "The houses down there require Spirit Value too?"

"Of course they do."

Lin Suchou nodded. To encourage students to spend, the Spirit Academy naturally had to come up with ways to do so.

"Hehe, naturally. Although the new student residential area is covered by a Fourth-Grade Spirit Gathering Array, it is divided into Grade A, Grade B, and Grade C.

"You've only been assigned Grade C, which is considered the outer edge of the Spirit Gathering Array. The spiritual energy here is fairly good, but it still falls short of Grade A and Grade B."

Mu Ling pointed toward the depths of the area, where the air appeared somewhat thicker. "That is the center of this Spirit Gathering Array. The spiritual energy there is naturally far denser than in the outer regions."

"Can we live there?"

Some of the new students were practically drooling with desire.

"Of course you can! But there are fees. Grade A rooms cost two thousand Spirit Value per month, while Grade B rooms cost one thousand Spirit Value per month."

Other than Lin Suchou, all the other new students were utterly shocked by this.

"Little ones, Spirit Value is extremely important. This is a way to motivate cultivation. Our Spirit Academy has over sixty Fifth-Grade Spirit Gathering Arrays, twenty Sixth-Grade Spirit Gathering Arrays, ten Seventh-Grade Spirit Gathering Arrays, and only one Eighth-Grade Spirit Gathering Array."

After introducing the number of Spirit Gathering Arrays, Mu Ling smilingly explained the fees as well. "Other than the Fourth-Grade Spirit Gathering Arrays, all other Spirit Gathering Arrays charge by the day. A Seventh-Grade Spirit Gathering Array costs five thousand Spirit Value per day."

"I'm done for."

For a moment, no one could say anything. They finally understood what the Spirit Value Cards Elder Bai had given them were for.

"Huh? Back home, I always started with Seventh-Grade Spirit Gathering Arrays."

Wen Qingxuan pouted her red lips, then took out her Spirit Value Card and lowered her head to look at it. Her expression became even uglier.

Lin Suchou leaned over for a look. It held three thousand Spirit Value.

"It's fine. Use mine first."

Seeing Wen Qingxuan's Spirit Value Card, Luo Li took out her own.

It displayed five thousand Spirit Value.

"Ah, if I'd known, I would've raised my mark a little higher in the Northern Cang Realm earlier. I should've picked opponents with higher cultivation too."

Wen Qingxuan sighed, but then seemed to think of something and looked at Lin Suchou with ill intent.

"What are you planning?"

A bad feeling rose in Lin Suchou's heart.

"Since you got in without taking the test, you must have a lot of Spirit Value, right?"

Wen Qingxuan hugged one of his arms, pressing her chest against Lin Suchou. "Since Luo Li and I are your girlfriends, you should let us spend your Spirit Value too, right?"

"That's fine, but from now on, we'll have to live in the same room."

Breathing in the rose fragrance of her hair, Lin Suchou stated his condition.

"Of course. After all, we'll have to sleep under the same blanket in the future."

Wen Qingxuan said with a smile, then glanced at Luo Li.

Luo Li's pretty face immediately flushed at those words.

Lin Suchou pulled her into his embrace too. Then, with a flip of his right hand, a Jade Token appeared out of thin air.

Lin Suchou fixed his eyes on it, and his eyes widened slightly.

One hundred thousand Spirit Value!?

It was not in the millions, but it was still several times more than Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan's combined Spirit Value. It seemed Dean Taicang cared about him quite a bit.

Wen Qingxuan and Luo Li were shocked as well when they saw the number.

"Husband, you'll have to take good care of us sisters from now on."

Wen Qingxuan put on a pitiful, charming expression.

Lin Suchou's eyes shifted at her words. He leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Remember to leave the door open for me tonight..."

Wen Qingxuan fiercely glared at him with her beautiful eyes, then pulled away from him and huffed. "No. My mother said that I can only... after we get married..."

Even as bold as Wen Qingxuan was, she could not finish the sentence.

Her pretty face was crimson as she glared viciously at Lin Suchou, as though she wanted to bite a chunk of flesh off him.

"That works too. It's just a shame that Luo Li and I will be living in a Grade A room, leaving you out in the cold."

Lin Suchou even sighed after saying that, looking deeply regretful.

"You..."

Seeing that she could not outtalk Lin Suchou, Wen Qingxuan sought help from Luo Li beside her. "Luo Li, look at him! He's already like this now. Who knows what he'll become in the future? We have to keep a close eye on him!"

"Stop fooling around, you two. Let's keep listening."

Luo Li looked helplessly at the bickering pair.

Logically speaking, after reuniting following such a long separation, shouldn't they be affectionate with each other?

Why were they bickering every second of the day?

"Don't lose heart, everyone. There are many ways to earn Spirit Value. For example, you can pay five hundred Spirit Value for a visit to the Thunder Domain and condense Heavenly Thunder Beads there. You can sell them at the Spirit Value Hall for two hundred Spirit Value each.

"Also, increasing your cultivation can earn you varying amounts of Spirit Value."

Mu Ling looked at the gloomy crowd and pointed her pale, slender finger toward the distant sky.

The sky there was darker, and flashes of Thunder could faintly be seen.

"All right, everyone, start choosing your rooms. If any of you wish to go to the Grade A or Grade B areas, remember to let me know."

Mu Ling covered her mouth and let out a coquettish laugh as she looked at the bitter-faced new students.

"Instructor Mu Ling, I'd like a Grade A pavilion."

Lin Suchou was the first to speak.

"Student, although the Grade A and Grade B areas consist of independent pavilions... each one can accommodate no more than two people."

Mu Ling smiled as her gaze moved between Lin Suchou, Luo Li, and Wen Qingxuan, her eyes carrying a deeper meaning.

"It's fine. As long as there are two beds."

Lin Suchou said with a laugh.

One, three, and five with Luo Li; two, four, and six with Wen Qingxuan. The remaining day would be just right for cooldown.

Lin Suchou had his schedule arranged perfectly.

Upon hearing that, Wen Qingxuan and Luo Li both turned their heads away, pretending they had nothing to do with him.

But Lin Suchou's skin was thicker than a city wall's corner. When Mu Ling gave him a meaningful look, he returned it with an "appreciative" gaze.

"Student, if there's anything you don't understand, feel free to come ask me. Your instructor is free at night too~"

The moment Mu Ling said this, she was met with hostility from Luo Li and Wen Qingxuan.

Then the two of them tightly clung to Lin Suchou, sending his thoughts racing. He gave Mu Ling a grateful look.

This young married instructor really knew how to provide assistance.

Next, Mu Chen also selected two rooms in the Grade B area.

A girl named Ye Qingling also selected a Grade B room. The little girl with twin ponytails beside her caught Lin Suchou's attention.

If he was not mistaken, she should be Sun'er.

However, Lin Suchou looked for only a moment before shifting his gaze away.

Wen Qingxuan and Luo Li were staring at him with killing intent. The pressure was enormous...
