The registration process was very simple. After all, it wasn’t an admission but a grade skip, so the procedure was much easier.
Initially, the new supervising teacher wanted to place Ye Ling into a group, but Hong Xiu had already made arrangements.
“I’ve already discussed this with Teacher Li Xingyue in advance. Ye Ling will be joining her group.”
Upon receiving this news, the supervising teacher didn’t say much. Since everything was already arranged, it saved him some trouble, so why not?
“Ding! Successfully skipped to the second year, received a reward of three free points.”
Ye Ling was pleased to receive the system notification and gained three free points as he had hoped.
After completing the formalities, Hong Xiu led Ye Ling to where she said Teacher Li Xingyue was located.
“Ye Ling, the Teacher Li Xingyue I’ve arranged for you is a good friend of mine. Her group is very strong.
I believe you’ll learn a lot after joining them. Don’t worry, I’ve already informed Li Xingyue, and she’ll take you under her wing.
Of course, kid, I’m still your teaching instructor, so don’t forget that. If you have any questions, you can come to me.
Also, let me tell you, in Li Xingyue’s group, there’s Zhao Siyu, who ranks first in the second year. She’s very strong, so make sure to keep a low profile when you join…”
Throughout the journey, Hong Xiu shared a lot of information with Ye Ling.
Ye Ling listened patiently and gained a lot of useful information, including the fact that the second year had a ranking system.
The higher the rank, the more resources you receive from the academy.
Being a bit of a money-grubber, Ye Ling was naturally very interested in the top spot.
However, he wasn’t arrogant enough to underestimate everyone.
Just from what Hong Xiu mentioned, Zhao Siyu, who ranks first in the second year at Vermilion Bird Academy, had already reached the Second Rank, Eighth Level.
That’s the same level as the Two-headed Green Python he encountered in the Secret Realm.
This means that one of Zhao Siyu’s Spiritual Pets is definitely at the Second Rank, Eighth Level, but how strong the other one is remains unknown.
If he wanted to defeat Zhao Siyu, it would likely be much more difficult than dealing with the Two-headed Green Python.
Although demons possess a certain level of intelligence, to have intelligence on par with humans, their level must be very high.
At least the Two-headed Green Python didn’t have intelligence surpassing humans.
It’s not that Ye Ling had no chance of winning, but without seeing the opponent’s data, he couldn’t clearly determine his odds.
Anyway, they would meet soon, and his True Eye would reveal the opponent’s true strength.
When Hong Xiu and Ye Ling arrived at Li Xingyue’s place, she was already waiting for them outside.
As soon as she saw Hong Xiu and Ye Ling, she greeted them with a smile.
“Hong Xiu, you didn’t come to see me after you got back. Are you that busy? I just finished a mission not long ago, and you didn’t even check in on me.”
As she walked over, Li Xingyue complained.
From her tone, it was clear that their relationship was indeed very good.
Hong Xiu looked helpless, as she had been very busy since her return.
Pointing to Ye Ling beside her, Hong Xiu seriously instructed.
“Xingyue, this is Ye Ling, the only male student at our Vermilion Bird Academy. I’m entrusting him to you, so make sure to train him well.”
Training Ye Ling well was a requirement from both the principal and herself. Ye Ling, already very strong, had great potential for growth.
With proper training, his future achievements would be outstanding.
“So you’re Ye Ling? You look quite handsome, no wonder so many girls like to talk about you, haha! Hello, I’m Li Xingyue, and you’ll be part of our group from now on.
I’ll take you on missions, and later I’ll introduce you to your other group members.”
Although she was a teaching instructor, Li Xingyue’s way of speaking was not rigid at all, but rather quite interesting.
“Hello, Teacher Li, please take care of me in the future.”
Ye Ling responded politely.
Hong Xiu glanced at the time and said again.
“Alright, Xingyue, I have other matters to attend to. You can take Ye Ling to get familiar with your group. Don’t bully him just because he’s new; I’m his teaching instructor.
If he gets bullied here, watch out, I’ll come after you.”
Of course, the latter half was just a joke, as there was no real trouble between good friends.
In response to her friend’s “threat,” Li Xingyue patted her chest and promised.
“Don’t worry, he’ll be fine with me. I won’t let him get bullied. If anyone’s going to bully him, it’ll be me.”
The first part of the sentence was fine, but the latter part made Ye Ling’s expression a bit odd.
What do you mean by “if anyone’s going to bully him, it’ll be me”? Am I that easy to bully?
That’s really underestimating me!
Of course, Ye Ling could only think this to himself. He had secretly checked Li Xingyue’s data earlier.
Goodness!
She was also a Seventh Rank Spirit Tamer, Third Level. Although slightly weaker than Hong Xiu, she was still incredibly strong.
