Li Yu strongly suspected that Nangong Natsuki intended to do this, but since classes hadn't officially started yet, she didn't know what she was thinking.

The two waited downstairs for a while, and the other students also came down one after another. They all teamed up and went to the restaurant to have dinner. When they returned to the dormitory, Li Yu suddenly remembered something.

He looked at Mahiru Shiina and said, "Shiina, here, take this and take a good look at it. If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to ask me."

Li Yu took out Miach's notebook. Of course, this was a translated copy; Li Yu wouldn't give the real notebook to just anyone, because they wouldn't understand it anyway.

Upon hearing Li Yu's words, Mahiru Shiina was stunned for a moment before hurriedly taking the document. The others also looked over with curious eyes.

"This is a God notebook, the notebook of the god of healing. It's something Teacher Nangong asked me to give you. It contains several True Magic. See if you can learn them. If you can't, come and ask me again," Li Yu explained the notebook to her.

Upon hearing this Mahiru Shiina and the others widened their eyes in astonishment. A God's notebook? Mahiru Shiina, in particular, was startled. Was this thing incredibly valuable?

"Class monitor... how about I give this back to you? It's too precious." She didn't look through it, but handed it back directly. In her eyes, this thing was extremely valuable.

"What are you thinking? This is just a copy. The real one is still in my hands, and most of the class have already seen it, but they can't understand it. You have a healing talent, so you should be able to understand what's on it." Li Yu looked at the other person with some amusement.

Rare? Not at all. You'll probably be able to find it in a library soon, since Li Yu has already submitted it and it might be published soon.

Besides, Miach is also in this world, and he'd probably love for his notebook to be gradually passed around so it can help more people.

Xia Yu couldn't help but chime in, "That's right, we've all seen it, so it's not that valuable. Just accept it. If you have any questions later, you can ask the class monitor. If even the class monitor doesn't know, I'll take you to find Miach."

She knew very well that Miach was also on the Boundary Island, and it wouldn't be difficult to find him. Besides, he probably knew about Mahiru Shiina's talent and would be happy to teach her.

Seeing that everyone was saying so, Mahiru Shiina thought about it and decided to accept it. At the same time, she was also a little surprised. Being able to meet the god of healing was something to look forward to.

Instead of rushing back to their dorms, everyone went straight to the lakeside to chat and exchange ideas about True Magic. The new students were still learning the True Magic from the group chat.

I've learned some of the simpler ones, but I'd better ask someone for help with things like the Piercing Magic Cannon, since that kind of True Magic is quite dangerous.

Some people also consulted Li Yu about Flight Magic. Xia Yu can only fly a little bit before the True Magic stops working, and this problem has been bothering her for several days.

Now that she had the chance, she decided to ask Li Yu for advice. Li Yu spent the entire afternoon teaching these guys and answering their questions about True Magic.

The new students now understood why everyone so highly regarded Li Yu as class monitor: Li Yu genuinely wanted to teach everyone what he knew.

And everyone gradually understood what Li Yu's talent was: it was in learning. No matter what Li Yu was learning, he could master it with ease. Such talent immediately made some of the new students extremely envious.

They learned of Li Yu's talent, and Li Yu, in turn, learned of their talent, even replicating it.

Mahiru Shiina's talent is Healing Heart; when she learns healing True Magic, the effects are doubled, and even the most ordinary Healing Magic can produce unexpected results in her hands.

Shikimori's talent is Wild Beast Nature, a controllable combat talent that grants her terrifying combat intuition and all-around amplification.

Asagi Aiba's talent is electromagnetic manipulation, but she's misplaced her talent points. In her own words, while she can use lightning True Magic, she's focused more on technology.

In other words, if she wanted to, she could hack into the network anytime, anywhere using her mobile phone, thus becoming something akin to artificial intelligence.

She's probably the only one in the class with a talent that borders on modern technology, right? I have to say there's a reason she got into this class.

With Asagi Aiba, Li Yu Yu's team essentially had a super hacker, the kind who would be incredibly useful in any technological world.

As for Sayaka Kirasaka, her talent is very simple: magic-breaking. The True Qi and magic power in her body have all become magic-breaking attribute. She cannot learn too much True Magic because magic power itself will interfere.

Therefore, she can only use magic as a bow and arrow, or rather, she imbues her weapons with magic for combat, making her a true nemesis of mages.

Then there's this guy, Kojou Akatsuki. This kid's talent is Berserk. After the talent is activated, his eyes turn blood red, and his strength can instantly increase five or six times. The side effect is that he turns himself into Berserker.

Instead of becoming True Ancestor, he's become Berserker, which is a bit outrageous. Li Yu is even considering whether to teach him a Mountain-Crushing Earth-Sundering Slash.

His best friend Yaze Motoki, has a surprising talent, as his talent leans towards perception, allowing him to sense everything within a few kilometers and even control the wind.

Besides these, there are other classmates, each with their own unique talents, but overall they all possess quite good abilities.

These students all showcased their talents, which benefited Li Yu, who copied them all, regardless of their usefulness.

Everyone had gained something from the afternoon, and after having dinner together in the evening, they returned to their dormitories to meditate and rest.

The next day arrived, and Li Yu and the others officially began their classes. The first class was taught by Nangong Natsuki, who started explaining the operational logic of Intermediate Magic.

Nangong Natsuki didn't mention going to another world. For several days in a row, Li Yu and the others attended classes in their own classrooms, including Nangong Natsuki's classes and Yor's classes.

However, it seems that Yor had already taught Li Yu and the others a lot of things beforehand, so her class was more like a review for the new students.

Time passed day by day, and Li Yu and the others soon welcomed their first weekend. After finishing their classes on Friday, they all returned to their dormitory together.

As soon as Li Yu returned to the dormitory building, he saw Hestia waiting downstairs. Upon seeing Li Yu and the others return, Hestia's eyes lit up, and she rushed to Li Yu's side.

"You're finally back!!" Hestia greeted Li Yu excitedly. Looking at her, Li Yu raised an eyebrow and said, "Looks like you've been doing quite well?"

To be honest, Li Yu was also a little annoyed. Hestia had been gone for several days and was completely out of the public eye, but now she suddenly appeared. Seeing that there was no sign of boredom in her eyes, Li Yu realized that this guy had probably had too much fun.

"Hehe... I really like it there!" Hestia happily told Li Yu about the library. There, she didn't need to do anything; she could just quietly read books. The endless books made her feel incredibly happy.

If she hadn't known it was a holiday tomorrow, she probably wouldn't have come. It's fair to say that Hestia was completely engrossed in it, and almost forgot about Li Yu and the others.

Shikimori and the others didn't recognize Hestia, and were quite surprised to see her. However, Li Yu's next words made them understand her identity.

"You've come at the perfect time. Please do everyone a Falna; the Hestia Familia has a new member." Li Yu didn't waste any words and directly asked Hestia to Falna upon everyone, even though they were attending classes every day.

But who knows when we might suddenly be asked to set off? It's always better to do these things sooner rather than later.

Hestia nodded, glanced at Shikimori and the others, and said, "I came here specifically for this matter; Natsuki-chan sent me."

Upon hearing this, a hint of surprise flashed in Li Yu's eyes. Nangong Natsuki sent her? Does that mean she's about to go to the new world? Otherwise, why would Nangong Natsuki send Hestia to Falna upon everyone now?

"Then go in first, and then you can handle the matter of the Falna for everyone." Although Li Yu had many doubts, he didn't think too much about it. Instead, he went over, used his access card to open the dormitory door, and went inside.

Seeing this, the others followed suit and entered the dormitory. Hestia didn't hesitate and first applied Falna to the new boys before running upstairs to apply Falna to the other girls.

After finishing all that, Hestia came to Li Yu's place to play, accompanied by Asuna, Yukino Yukinoshita, and others. The girls gathered in Li Yu's room and chatted away.

Seeing their expressions, Li Yu was somewhat speechless. He couldn't help but ask Hestia, "Hestia, are you going back tonight? Or are you going to stay here? There are empty rooms upstairs; if you want to stay, go and tidy them up."

Upon hearing Li Yu's question, Hestia shook her head and said, "I'm not staying. I'll be going back soon. I have my own apartment now, so I can't stay here."

She's a paid employee now, how could she live with the students? She's only here today to offer them a small Falna; she'll be going back soon.

"Did Teacher Nangong specifically ask you to come here because of our upcoming trip to another world?" Li Yu couldn't help but ask after hearing the other person's words.

However, Hestia was unaware of these matters and therefore could not answer Li Yu's question, which Li Yu found somewhat regrettable.

"I guess it won't be long before Teacher Nangong tells us about this, right?" Asuna couldn't help but speculate after hearing Li Yu's words.

Yukino and Kato Megumi nodded in agreement. Absolutely, they thought; perhaps she would inform everyone that evening.

Li Yu didn't say much about this issue. She chatted with Hestia for a while, had dinner with everyone, got to know the new students, and then said goodbye and left.

The Falna bestowed by Hestia undoubtedly excited the students, as it displayed the True Magic and talents they possessed—it was practically like an online game! If nothing unexpected happened, these new students would probably be studying it thoroughly that night.

After everyone returned to the dormitory, they went to their respective rooms. Li Yu also went straight into the bathroom to wash up. When he came out, his phone kept popping up with new messages. Seeing this, Li Yu used magic to dry off his body and then picked up his phone.

As soon as Li Yu joined the group, she saw the message that Nangong Natsuki had posted. She immediately muted everyone and then posted some things in the group.

Nangong Natsuki: [@All members, please prepare over the weekend. I've already told you about the situation there. Bring plenty of food and water, so you don't arrive without anything to eat or drink.]

Nangong Natsuki: [Departure time is Sunday afternoon. Please meet downstairs at your dorms then, and I will come and pick you up.]

Upon seeing the message from Nangong Natsuki, Li Yu's eyes lit up. As expected, she intended for them to go there soon. Thinking of this, Li Yu immediately replied with a message.

Li Yu: [Understood. So, Teacher Nangong, are you all coming along this time too?]

Although the others were muted, Li Yu, the group admin, couldn't be muted, nor could Xia Yu and Asuna, the other administrators; they just didn't say anything.

Nangong Natsuki: [This time we're not going. You'll have to rely on yourselves. You make the arrangements.]

Upon seeing this message, Li Yu nodded thoughtfully. Were they to take full responsibility for their trip to the other world?

Li Yu: [Understood, we'll go shopping tomorrow!]

Nangong Natsuki: [ok/]

As she sent an emoji, the ban was lifted, and Li Yu immediately tagged all the members in the group. After all, it had been said before that he, as the class monitor, was fully responsible, and Nangong Natsuki had just mentioned it as well.

Li Yu: [@All members, I have made the following arrangements.]

Li Yu: [Tomorrow morning, after we get up, we'll go out together in small teams to buy enough food and water for each person in our team to last three months.]

Li Yu: [@Xia Yu, especially you, don't stuff random stuff into your Space Backpack. Leave some space.]

Li Yu specifically called out Xia Yu in the group chat, warning her not to stuff any random stuff into his Space Backpack again.

Although many students in the class did not have Space Backpack, the Space Backpack that Li Yu and his classmates had were enough for everyone to carry various supplies.

Xia Yu: [QAQ, I understand, class monitor. I'll do my shopping properly tomorrow.]

Although somewhat annoyed, Xia Yu understood the importance of things. Nangong Natsuki had already said that the area was in the context of the apocalypse, and at this time, the most important things were food and drinking water, so of course she wouldn't bring any random stuff.

At most, I'll bring some fruit or something, since they need to supplement their vitamins too. I can't just bring energy bars all the time, that would be too awful.

Li Yu: [Good to know. As for the medicine, everyone should purchase some antiviral drugs.]

Li Yu arranged a series of things in the group chat. After he finished speaking, everyone chimed in to say they had taken note, and they would discuss the rest later.

Shikimori and Mahiru Shiina, who were participating in something like this for the first time, were quite nervous. Mahiru Shiina Xia Yu currently with Shikimori, and a few others.

After Li Yu stopped talking, Xia Yu explained the benefits of exploring the other world to the new students. In addition to the prize money, there were other rewards, and they might even get things like Space Ring.

Li Yu had already obtained it before, but Li Yu did it all through his own abilities; they didn't do anything, so they couldn't be envious. However, the bonus was enough for everyone to become financially free instantly.

Although there are some risks involved, exploring this other world is truly exhilarating, and the first-time completion rewards are incredibly generous.

After understanding the situation, Shikimori and the others' eyes lit up. So that's how it is! They obtained their Space Backpack back then? Perhaps they could get their Space Backpack after this?

Especially Asagi Aiba, who couldn't help but ponder, "That other side has a technological background, right? That means there's internet, right? And in another world, it doesn't matter how she ends up, right?"

It looks like she'll need to prepare more large-capacity hard drives tomorrow, otherwise she's afraid she won't be able to store all the world's technology.

Asagi Aiba was confident that she could easily hack into anything on the internet. Even without an internet connection, as long as electromagnetic force was present, she could still hack into it!

The new students couldn't help but look forward to their upcoming exploration of the other world. After deciding to go shopping tomorrow, everyone went back to their rooms to wash up.

I'm going to go to bed early so we can all go out shopping together. They were planning to skip class tomorrow and binge-watch TV shows together, but it looks like that plan is going to fall through.

Time flew by and it was already the next day. Li Yu was woken up by the others in the morning, and then the group left the school and headed outside.

Although they could buy things on campus, Li Yu and the others felt it was better to go outside. Besides, none of them had been out shopping much before, so they decided to go for a stroll.

Because it was Saturday, many people left school to go out and have fun. Li Yu and his friends didn't attract much attention as they walked together, since there were just too many people out and about.

After swiping their cards and leaving the school, everyone went to the nearby market to buy what they needed. They were out buying goods, and the shop owners must be very happy!
