Welcome to the Happy Village in the Spiritual Realm of the Great Universe!

"Xiaobai, come quickly. Today's breakfast has your favorite mixed vegetable burritos, specially made for you!" As soon as he saw Yunbai coming out, Zhao Hongshan called her to eat enthusiastically. After a few days of getting along, Yunbai slowly integrated into this academy with only three people. Everyone got to know each other better and addressed each other more intimately.

"I'm here!" Yun Bai responded enthusiastically. As always, Yuan Ye was the first to sit at the square table and wait for the meal to start. After the two students sat down, he would ask about everyone's study and cultivation status as usual. After learning that Zhao Hongshan had officially entered the 2-star 5th level yesterday, and Yun Bai had lit up another small spirit star in just one day, Yuan Ye showed a satisfied look and encouraged the two to keep up the good work.

Today is the fourth day that Yun Bai has been at Cangyu College. She has fallen in love with this peaceful and fulfilling life, and even feels that it would be great if she could live like this for the rest of her life. However, she knows that she cannot live forever without graduating, and she possesses the spiritual realm of the universe, so her life is destined not to be so peaceful. Therefore, there is always a big stone pressing on her heart, and on the stone are two big words: urgency.

Therefore, she worked extra hard in both study and cultivation. On the one hand, she found that study and cultivation were indeed a pleasant thing, especially when there were immediate results, her inner motivation would become stronger and stronger; on the other hand, there was an invisible and intangible sense of urgency, she must grow up as soon as possible to better cope with the unknown future...

However, despite this, she still enjoys her current life very much. There are delicious food, a warm-hearted senior brother, a very good teacher, and a deserted island exploration activity full of surprises.

Today is a good day. The sun is hanging in the sky early, releasing bright and warm light. Although it is still early spring, it doesn't feel cold at all. With the efforts of the three people yesterday, the weeds from the campus to the teleportation array have been cleared. The whole campus is also brand new. The more than 30 eggs and a pair of golden-winged snow chickens harvested yesterday have been placed in the brooding room and the spirit bird room respectively. Zhao Hongshan has already engraved a simple elementary formation, which is enough to decorate the two rooms properly.

"After breakfast, I have to go back to the main campus for a meeting. So, the morning classes will be suspended, and I will make them up to you two in the next few days. You two will have to work hard today and continue to clear the weeds around. I see that the weather is getting warmer and some of the grass has turned green. So, after everything is cleaned up, we can open up spiritual fields and plant some spiritual grains and vegetables. You two can discuss the rest. Oh, by the way, Xiaobai, pick out a few good porcelain pieces for me later, and I'll take them to Tianlan Market and try to sell them on consignment there." Yuanye gave instructions to the two students while eating.

"Okay. I've just finished eating, so I'll go now." Yun Bai agreed straightforwardly, then stood up and walked into the storage room on the second floor to select porcelain. Zhao Hongshan also hurriedly stood up to help.

Not long after, the two came back. "We took two sets in total. They were made by my senior brother and I last night. One set of crystal glass tableware and one set of carved snow porcelain tea set. They didn't cost much. You can decide the price yourself." Bai Yun handed the storage bag to Yuanye and gave a brief explanation.

"Okay, Xiaobai is very thoughtful and thorough, and your and Hongshan's craftsmanship is impeccable. I will just be an errand boy and ask the store owner to help me set a price after I take the goods. He is an expert in this area." Yuanye said cheerfully, looking at his two students with satisfaction. One is honest and steady, the other is smart and clever. Both are good seedlings.

After dinner, Yuanye took the teleportation array to Tianlan for a meeting. After Yunbai and Zhao Hongshan cleaned up the dishes, they began to further explore and clean up the deserted island, which took a whole day. I thought Yuanye would be back soon, but I didn't expect that he would not come back until the evening.

"Teacher, why do you look so bad? What's wrong?" As soon as Yuanye came back, Zhao Hongshan noticed that he looked a little off, so he asked with concern. Since yesterday, Yuanye asked the two to call him "teacher", saying that it sounded more comfortable.

"Hmph!" This is Yuanye's catchphrase. He always habitually snorts before expressing his indignation. He is a very smart man, but he is also a true person. In particular, he doesn't like to hide things in front of his two students, so he immediately said: "Those damn old guys on the school committee said that the war is fierce, the school finances are tight, and we must save money. We can't let the spirit coins go to waste! In the end, we are the ones who waste spirit coins! Shameless people, I don't know how many school resources they have taken away! Huh..." He was really angry. Grandpa has just advanced to the 9th star, and his realm is still a little unstable. He needs to retreat for a while. Those old guys came out to jump around and find fault with him!

"Calm down and drink some water first." Yun Bai obediently handed over a cup of freshly brewed local fruit tea.

After taking a look at the two good disciples, Yuan Ye breathed a sigh of relief, and then he became angry again: "Humph! They said that our academy can't keep burning spirit coins, and they should give us a probation period. If there is no improvement after the probation period, the academy will be closed down! Don't they have any conscience? What do you mean by burning spirit coins all the time? They gave us a total of 3,000 low-grade spirit coins, and they still have the nerve to say that! It's not even enough for me to build a house!"

Yun Bai and Zhao Hongshan listened quietly to Yuan Ye's chatter. After a while, he finally vented his anger and calmed down again, saying, "The deadline they gave is one year, which is the final exam at the end of this year. The number of students must reach at least 50, and the overall performance of the students must be at least average. My grandfather is still in seclusion, and I don't know when he will come out, so we can only swallow this breath now."

"Don't be angry, teacher. There's still a year left. Your level is so high, you don't have to worry about not having students! My brothers and I will practice hard to bring honor to you. After things are more stable outside, we can go to the town to post recruitment advertisements. I believe there will be students by then!" Yun Bai said comfortingly.

"Xiaobai is right! In any case, we will never let them be forced into a desperate situation!" Zhao Hongshan also echoed indignantly.

"My greatest comfort is that I have such good disciples like you two..." Seeing this, Yuanye was very touched. He sighed and quickly calmed down, then changed the subject and said, "Let's not talk about that. I'll tell you a good thing. I brought those two sets of tableware. Guess what? As soon as I took them, they were directly sold by the store owner. You wouldn't believe the price. The glass set was sold for two thousand low-grade spirit coins, and the snow porcelain set was even more amazing. It was sold for three thousand six! Oh, this time, I can buy you two mid-level protective spirit tools, and maybe I can buy a few spirit-enhancing pills, which are most effective for you now! Hehehe..." At this point, Yuanye took out a bag of spirit coins and put it in front of the two. His face was smiling again, and his pair of small black eyes were shining.

"Teacher, you should change into new clothes." Yun Bai didn't understand why the former dean, the grandson of the dignified principal Tian Lan, was always struggling to make ends meet. She also knew that the dean loved spirit coins very much and was even more short of them. However, he was willing to spend all the money he earned on two students, but he was reluctant to spend it himself. She looked at the teacher's clothes that had been stretched to a serious deformation but still stubbornly held on to her post, and her heart was full of emotion. Zhao Hongshan stood beside her, and although he didn't say anything, everything was already beyond words.

"Hehehe, okay, then in a couple of days, I'll take you two to the school market for a stroll." Yuanye looked at the two students again, then at the few buttons on his clothes that were struggling to hold on, and nodded with satisfaction and agreed.
