Upon hearing this, the classroom erupted in shouts and screams.

"Huh???!!!" Mu Feng was so shocked that his mouth almost dislocated. He slammed his hand on the table and stood up excitedly. "Dean?! Teacher Wu Ya, you lied to me so badly!"

"Wow..." Li Wenyin's eyes widened. "It feels like my stocks have appreciated overnight..."

Yu Zhiyuan didn't say anything, but her trembling eyes revealed her excitement. She never expected that the kind and amiable Teacher Wu Ya was actually the dean.

Qin Guanyu was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "It's an honor to receive guidance from the Dean."

Pei Yuan opened his mouth silently, then shifted his gaze elsewhere: "Damn it, it's an illusion."

It seems like they are deceiving themselves and refusing to accept reality.

The others could understand, because Pei Yuan had once publicly questioned Teacher Wu Ya's abilities and had acted rebelliously.

Remembering this, Mu Feng quickly lowered his chin and teased him, "Oh my, this is incredible, Pei Yuan, what do you think?"

"You're so shameless," Pei Yuan rolled his eyes at him.

"You can't really call it lying," Wu Ya argued with a grin. "I never denied that I was."

"..."

What nonsense is he spouting? Who would have thought he was the Dean of the Obsidian Academy before? He's an unreliable, squinty-eyed man with a monocle.

"Professor Wu... I have a question," Li Wenyin said, scratching her cheek, "How old are you really? How did you become the dean at such a young age?"

"Well..." Wu Ya hesitated for a moment, as if thinking about how to answer.

“He,” Yu Chi Quan said after a moment’s thought, “he looked just like this the year I was born.”

"???"

what? !

That means Teacher Wuya looked like this eighteen years ago, so how old is he really...? I can't even imagine.

As expected of the unfathomable and mysterious head of the Obsidian Academy, everyone gasped, and the long-lost respect for teachers and elders suddenly surged up.

"After all, he's a baby born into the Yuchi family, so naturally I have to go to his birthday banquet to see him," Teacher Wuya replied, avoiding the main point of the question.

Yu Chi Quan was somewhat taken aback by his words, so he stepped down from the podium and found a seat.

After the initial shock, the others immediately launched into a barrage of questions.

Mu Feng: "Teacher, since you're so amazing, why do you use the alias 'Witch Raven'? Everyone else calls you..."

"Teacher Wang the Ragpicker? I know him," Teacher Wuya said with a smile. "I really like using this image; it helps to ease the distance between me and you students."

"Teacher," Qin Guanyu asked politely, "how many students do you have?"

"That's quite a lot," Teacher Wuya thought for a moment and smiled, "but right now I'm only teaching the six of you."

"Oh—!!!" Li Wenyin realized, "No wonder he was wearing glasses, he's reading-ready..."

"No, that's not it."

Others: "..." Li Wenyin, how exactly does your brain work?

-

"President, when did you become a student of the Dean?" Li Wenyin asked curiously.

"Enrollment," Yuchi Quan replied, "has always been."

"Huh?" Mu Feng asked curiously, "Then why haven't you come with us? I really just found out that you, the student council president, are in the same class as us." He suddenly felt honored.

Yu Chi Quan gave a half-smile: "Purely busy."

Absolutely! I was kept busy by Li Wenyin when school started, and even after I shrank, I was still kept busy by Li Wenyin. I finally got back, and I was even busier than usual in the student council.

He smiled and gave Li Wenyin a meaningless look.

"..."

Li Wenyin guiltily looked away.

Others might say they're busy as an excuse, but Yu Chi Quan's claim of being busy is absolutely true, because the chaos was added by Li Wenyin.

Li Wenyin looked out the window and suddenly became captivated by the clouds in the sky.

Wu Ya slowly began to speak: "Xiao Quanquan usually has his own student council work to do, and since the five of you are all new students I recruited this semester, I haven't had the chance to introduce you properly until now. Now that he has less work in the student council, it's time to formally introduce you."

"What about the progress? The grade gap is too big, and the president isn't a new member either." Pei Yuan hesitated for a long time before finally managing to come up with a question.

"It's alright. Anyway, I don't have much teaching time, so I can teach separately. But since you're in the same class, I really hope you can get along well with each other," Teacher Wuya said sincerely.

Everyone's inner thoughts: You know you don't have much teaching time, and you're always disappearing without a trace...

Forget it, it's already a 1v6 elite class taught by the dean and renowned teachers.

They thought back and realized that it was no wonder the other students were so amazed by their plant magic, sensory potions, weaving magic, and mimicry magic, and they had never seen any other students use them. It turned out that these were exclusive to the dean, and the other students really didn't know that.

That is to say, they are all so bizarre and their power is quite extraordinary.

-

"I can understand the president's situation, but what about us..." Mu Feng scratched his head and asked, "Dean, why did you decide to take us in?"

Becoming his student must be very difficult; it's something many people dream of.

"Hey~ Senior Mu Feng, don't underestimate yourself," Li Wenyin waved her hand, "There shouldn't be anyone in the school who almost got sterilized, you're probably the first in some ways."

"Wei Liwenyin! You're insulting me again!" Mu Feng shouted angrily, his face flushed red. "I order you all never to mention this again!"

Wu Ya smiled and said, "Because you are the most special among all the students, and I like you very much."

"Mu Feng's talent for magic arrays, Qin Guanyu's shapeshifting magic, Yu Zhiyuan's talent for magical beasts, and Li Wenyin's creative abilities," Pei Yuan analyzed rationally, "Then why did they suddenly accept me in my second year?"

Wu Ya smiled and waved his hand, the reflection in his monocle flashing: "Little Yuan Yuan, you're special too, you just haven't realized it yet."

Pei Yuan lowered his eyes and stared thoughtfully at the desk.

"You're the most normal one among us," Li Wenyin came up with a brilliant way to comfort us.

"..." Pei Yuan looked at her speechlessly. "Should I be proud of that?"

Li Wenyin: "How rare and precious!"

Pei Yuan: "..."

-

"Now that we've laid this out, for the sake of our future relationship, there's something I need to be honest about." Yu Chi Quan turned to look at them.

"What?" Mu Feng asked curiously.

Li Wenyin had some guesses in her mind, could it be...?

With a soft "bang," Yu Chi Quan, who had been sitting elegantly and gently, was shrouded in a fog.

After the fog cleared, what was revealed was a little boy who was all too familiar to us.

With fine, slightly long hair, a fair and lovely face, and a sly look in her eyes, she gazed at them meaningfully and raised her hand in a childish voice to greet them: "Yo."

The group was shocked once again.

"???"

"!!!"

"ah."

"I am Mu You," Xiao Yuchi Quan said with a smile, tilting his head. "I shrank and hid before because of some reasons that cannot be told for the time being."

Mu Feng looked away, uttering the familiar, self-deceiving, and unwilling-to-accept statement: "Damn it, it's an illusion, it must be an illusion!"

"How about it?" Now it was Pei Yuan's turn to mock, "Who was it that called me a little brat and looked down on me before? What are you thinking now?"

Mu Feng didn't even dare to think about it.

When a person is extremely sweaty, they will suddenly recall many forgotten memories, making them sweat even more. For example, he suddenly remembered that Li Wenyin had reminded him not to mess with Mu You, but he hadn't taken it to heart at the time.

Damn it, did Li Wenyin already know the truth back then? This heinous liar didn't even tell him, just watched him offend people for no reason!

Mu Feng looked intently at Li Wenyin.

Li Wenyin was propping her head up to look at the clouds, leaving him with only the back of her head visible.

Clearly, she had abandoned him again.

"Mu Feng, don't be so reserved," Xiao Yuchi Quan said with a smile. "I remember everything we did together. We can definitely go back to how we were back then."

The child's voice was sweet, but it kept saying things that made people want to die.

His eyes gleamed, revealing a cunning glint in them, as if he were already planning something.

Mu Feng is the kind of person who is cowardly when he should be. He forcefully slapped Li Wenyin, who was detached and engrossed in watching the clouds, back to reality, and angrily signaled with his eyes.

"Li! Wen! Yin! You know, right? You absolutely know!"

Li Wenyin turned back guiltily, hesitantly returning his gaze.

"Oh dear, Senior Mu Feng, I have my reasons too."

"What's your reason? I don't care! If I die, you're not allowed to live either!" Mu Feng forcibly pulled her into the water.

"Oh, don't talk about dying. I really can't help you, Senior Mu Feng. Hang in there. Good luck. I believe in you."

Li Wenyin gave him a firm look, and then nothing more. She was still preoccupied with her own problems, and Yu Chiquan was barely able to protect himself, so there was nothing she could do to help.

Mu Feng glanced at Xiao Yuchi Quan's familiar smile with despair and helplessness. Every time he smiled like that, it would infuriate Mu Feng to death.

Li Wenyin shook her head.

"That's what happens when you tell him he's such a petty and calculating kid."

"Um?"

Xiao Yuchi Quan suddenly joined their eye contact.

"..."

"..."

Both dogs lowered their heads and became obedient.

-

The others were all eagerly asking Teacher Wuya all sorts of questions. After learning that Teacher Wuya was Wuzhu Yan, the dean of the Obsidian Academy, their already strong curiosity instantly reached its peak, and they asked one question after another.

Teacher Wu Ya, who was always criticized for being unreliable, has finally been treated as the center of attention by his students. However, he is a little troubled, and keeps saying that they should just treat him with normalcy, wondering if he just likes being teased by his students.

Li Wenyin asked a few questions as well, and then turned to look at Yuchi Quan sitting next to her.

After showing everyone, he transformed back into his original form, sitting in the window seat he liked to sit in during his time with Muyou, looking down intently at a picture book on the table.

Li Wenyin glanced at it; he really did persistently enjoy reading those picture storybooks, which had a very contrasting innocence.

"Again."

Pure white uniforms and pure black school uniforms are two extremes, but both suit Yu Chi Quan well. However, he seems more relaxed and reveals more of his true nature when wearing the obsidian school uniform.

Yu Chi Quan looked up at her.

Li Wenyin smiled and lay on the table watching him, her head resting in her arms, burying her chin in her cheeks, her eyes bright, and she whispered happily, "So we have the same teacher, then we can see each other often."

Yu Chiquan's expression shifted slightly, and he said, "Well, you just need to avoid getting into trouble in the future."

"..." However, Li Wenyin thought that what he said was not wrong. When he was in the student council, Li Wenyin would only go to him if he had either committed a crime or had something to do. Otherwise, if he went to him too often, it would seem like he was just causing trouble and delaying people.

Now that she has a different identity, Li Wenyin can spend as much time with him in private.

But why does he seem so unenthusiastic? Li Wenyin, on the other hand, is very happy. What's wrong with him? Why is he unhappy? They're playing together!

"Aren't you happy to join us?"

"I'm not unhappy," Yu Chiquan denied directly, then thought for a moment, "In terms of teaching, we are at different paces, so we are taught separately. I came here voluntarily."

"Why did you come here on your own initiative?" Li Wenyin asked curiously as she leaned closer.

Yu Chiquan turned to the side, raised his chin, and gestured to the painting hanging on the back wall of the classroom, depicting everyone working together to renovate the classroom.

"There's a painting hanging on the classroom wall. Everyone in the painting except me is in this classroom. If you didn't know better, you'd think I was dead and it was a memorial for me, so I came here."

Li Wenyin: "..."

What he said sounded like the truth, logical and well-founded, sincere and serious, making it convincing. But Li Wenyin raised her eyebrows, thinking to herself, "Shy Cat."

"Sigh," Li Wenyin sighed, propping her head up with her hand, "I thought you were doing this for me."

"..." Yu Chi Quan was speechless, stunned by Li Wenyin's blunt and unreserved words. He felt a heat in his palm and his slender fingers trembled.

"Oh, it was for painting. What a pity."

Li Wenyin rested her chin on her hand and gazed at the painting.

"I'm starting to dislike it now."

She really caught people off guard with her words, one after another, directly surprising them with how such a passionate and fearless being could still exist in the world.

Yu Chiquan's eyelashes trembled, and a hint of unnaturalness, which had always been elegant and composed, flashed across his handsome face.

He hesitated for a moment, then changed his words: "I came for you."

"That's right!"

Li Wenyin turned back with a smile and extended her hand to him generously.

"I told you, we've been through thick and thin together, cooperated and communicated so many times, our relationship must have deepened. Whether it's me going to the student council or you coming to our class, it's only right for us to do it!"

Yu Chi Quan paused for a moment, then smiled and replied, "Mm."

He took Li Wenyin's outstretched hand and felt that her whole hand was warm; now it wasn't just her palm, but her entire body was warm.

While saying "Welcome, Senior Youyou," Li Wenyin happily shook hands with someone who looked quite formal.

It was a bit strange; his grip was a little tight, not like a polite, welcoming handshake.

Li Wenyin immediately took his hand and was helped up to go to the student council building to learn about the entrance examination.

She knew better than anyone what a polite handshake from Yuchi Quan was like.

This...it looks a bit like the other person wants to hold hands.
