Time slipped by in a flash, and soon it was the day school officially began.

Early that morning.

Sunlight streamed in from the windowsill, spilling onto Jiang Yi's face. It felt warm and a little itchy, as if a Sky Dream Ice Silkworm were crawling on him.

"Achoo—"

Jiang Yi sniffled, unable to hold back a sneeze.

He subconsciously reached out to grab his embrace, only to grasp empty air; the soft, pillow-like Tian Meng was gone.

Then, he woke up.

Well, it was definitely not because he had any peculiar habits. It was just that Shrek lacked air conditioning, and hugging an Ice Silkworm helped him cool down.

"Up so early?"

Jiang Yi yawned, rubbing his sleepy eyes as he sat up.

At that moment, a blonde loli was sitting cross-legged by the window, enveloped in the dazzling sunlight, inhaling and exhaling wisps of the nascent purple energy.

Little Tian Meng was wearing a loose, baggy white pajama top—it was Jiang Yi's, and it hung off her frame by a significant margin.

"Of course!"

She slowly exhaled a breath, a flash of purple passing through her eyes, before turning back to clench her small fist at Jiang Yi.

"I am going to become a top-tier expert!"

Jiang Yi had practically sold himself for her sake; how could she afford to stagnate?

She, Tian Meng, swore to shed the title of the most useless million-year soul beast!!!

"Go for it, Tian Meng! I believe in you; you're the best!"

Jiang Yi gave a thumbs-up, encouraging her with a face full of sincerity.

At the same time, he silently opened his system panel, and a string of notifications caught his eye—

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, your Sky Dream Ice Silkworm has comprehended a new skill: Purple Demon Eye!]

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, your Sky Dream Ice Silkworm has comprehended a new skill: Ghost Shadow Perplexing Track!]

[...]

Jiang Yi was gratified to discover that he could actually share these acquired soul skills with Tian Meng.

Isn't this just a mobile experience pack?

Things he didn't have time to learn could be completely offloaded to Tian Meng.

Although Tian Meng's mental power was a bit "watered down," the sheer volume was more than enough. Her greatest advantage was that she never got tired and could study twenty-four hours a day without interruption.

A true learning machine!

"Don't worry, Jiang Yi!"

Tian Meng nodded heavily, her small face filled with emotion.

Although she could take on a human form, there were still differences between a human body and a soul beast's body. These past few days, it was Jiang Yi who had tirelessly taught her, hand-in-hand, how to familiarize herself with it.

Through their unremitting efforts, she had finally succeeded.

"Sister Tian Meng, you're truly amazing! From now on, I'll be counting on you."

Jiang Yi looked at Tian Meng with a face full of admiration.

Flattery begets favor; this praise made Tian Meng so happy she couldn't find north.

"Hehe, this is all what a big sister should do! I'm going to cultivate now..."

Tian Meng scratched her head, feeling a bit shy, then whoosh, she dove into the Master Ball.

"Heehee! He praised me again!"

Inside the large ball, she crouched on the ground, cupping her small face in her hands, secretly rejoicing as if she had been fed industrial-grade sugar.

At the same time, she secretly made up her mind: her master was so good, she absolutely couldn't keep him all to herself.

That would be too selfish!

Once her master's cultivation increased, she would definitely have to introduce Bing'er and the others as well.

After a quick wash, Jiang Yi headed out and walked toward the teaching building.

To ensure fairness, the freshman class assignments this time were distributed evenly, with seed players in every class.

After all, the freshman assessment in three months would determine the bonuses for each instructor based on their class performance.

Huo Yutong was still assigned to Class One, while Jiang Yi went to Freshman Class Nine; Xiao Xiao had lamented over this for quite a while.

Jiang Yi arrived relatively early; he didn't like cutting it close. By the time he reached the classroom, there were only a few people inside.

He scanned the room and chose a prime spot by the window to sit down.

Outside the window stood a few old locust trees, the sunlight casting mottled shadows through the leaves—a perfect spot for slacking off.

He leaned back against the chair, closing his eyes to rest and quietly waiting for class to begin.

Time ticked by second by second, and the classroom gradually grew lively; some students chatted loudly, while others sat with eyes closed in meditation.

Jiang Yi opened his eyes and scanned the room. Seeing no one who caught his interest, he turned his gaze back to the window, feeling bored.

Just then—

The light at the classroom entrance suddenly dimmed for a moment.

Two figures walked in side-by-side, trailing the final echoes of the class bell.

Leading them was a golden-haired girl.

She stood tall with a dignified bearing, her appearance truly stunning, her short golden hair shimmering with a soft luster under the morning light.

Though she was a girl, there was a rare, heroic, and spirited air between her brows.

Following behind her was a red-haired girl with a fiery figure, wearing a short skirt that revealed dazzling, snow-white thighs.

The red-haired girl's gaze remained fixed on the golden-haired girl, following her closely like a loyal guard.

As soon as the two beauties appeared, they drew everyone's attention, and the noisy classroom fell silent for a heartbeat.

Soon, some of the lecherous students in the room became eager, vying to invite the two to sit with them.

"Beautiful ladies, over here! I have two spots left! They're right on either side, and I don't mind sitting in the middle—"

"Come sit with us! The ventilation and lighting are great here!"

The two were long accustomed to this and remained calm. The red-haired girl scanned the classroom, her eyes finally landing on a spot in the corner.

"Young Miss, over there."

She reminded her in a soft voice.

"Mm."

The golden-haired girl nodded slightly and stepped toward that direction.

It was by the window, where the sunlight was just right. A young man sat there, looking out the window with a bored, lazy expression on his face.

"May I sit here?"

The golden-haired girl looked at Jiang Yi and offered a polite smile.

"Hm?"

Jiang Yi withdrew his gaze from the window, glanced at the girl, and looked at her with some surprise.

He naturally guessed the girl's identity: the young master of the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect, Ning Tian, and that cross-eyed one next to her must be Wu Feng.

In his past life, when he first read Peerless Tang Sect, this lesbian couple had dealt a heavy blow to his young, innocent heart.

The whole Valley of Love Inquiry arc, the breeding part... it made Jiang Yi marvel at the author's "divine" creativity.

However... why did this girl look like she was coming specifically for him?

Jiang Yi raised an eyebrow and cast a calm, sidelong glance at Wu Feng.

At eleven or twelve, it was the age where one couldn't hide their thoughts; the girl's intention to bite him to death was practically written all over her face.

It was obvious that if he agreed, Jiang Yi would surely face a heap of trouble later, so he nodded readily.

"Sure!"

He loved watching beautiful girls who wanted to hit him but couldn't, forced to endure the ugly sight of them twisting and crawling in the dark corners of their minds.

"Thank you."

Ning Tian thanked him and sat down elegantly beside him, while Wu Feng glared at him before huffily sitting down behind them.

Daring to sit with Young Miss, you have already invited your own death!

"I'm Ning Tian, and you?"

Ning Tian tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, looking at Jiang Yi with a beaming smile.

"Jiang Yi."

Jiang Yi nodded slightly.

Although he felt Ning Tian's intentions were unclear, he was a man of integrity with nothing to hide, so he wasn't worried about the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect coveting anything from him.

"Jiang Yi... that's a nice name."

Ning Tian repeated it softly, as if savoring the sound.

She seemed to want to say more, but a figure hurried in through the door.

The teacher had arrived.

Wu Feng finally let out a sigh of relief and leaned back in her chair, though her gaze remained fixed firmly on the back of Jiang Yi's head.

Young Miss is MINE!!!
