A year consists of twelve months, and Phoenix University of Magic begins in mid-August.

Caesar spent the week before school started studying with Jessica.

Being a teacher is not just about having knowledge, knowing how to teach students is also a very important skill. This week, Caesar discovered that being a teacher also involves a lot of considerations.

A week passed in a flash, and soon it was the start of the school year at Phoenix Magic University.

The school starts in mid-August every year. During this season, an orchid called dragon heart orchid planted on both sides of the road by the school blooms.

Legend has it that the dragon's heart blood is blue. A giant dragon died somewhere, and its heart blood was poured into the ground to cultivate this orchid. But would anyone really kill a dragon and waste its precious heart blood?

If I were here, I would definitely collect all the scales on its butt.

Xi Ze thought so while walking on the way to school. The opening ceremony is a tradition of the school. Every new class must hold it, with the principal giving a speech, and then the outstanding representatives of the new students will give speeches.

The weather is very good today. The sunlight shines through the branches on both sides of the road and onto the ground. The Tyndall effect forms hazy beams of light.

As we walked from the staff dormitory toward the school auditorium, there were more and more people as we got closer.

There were students walking in groups of three or four.

Due to the extremely strong strength of Phoenix University of Magic, the teaching buildings are built very tall, and the various buildings are separated by quite a distance.

Most of the students looked very young, they were teenagers around 16 or 17 years old.

They were all wearing the uniform robes issued by the school.

Caesar's task today was to lead the freshmen to their seats and then call the roll. He was responsible for a portion of the first-year freshmen at the Plastic Arts Academy.

After receiving the list of students, Nishizawa started his work. In addition to the teachers, there were also some volunteers from the second and third year students working.

The scene was chaotic and I couldn't tell whether it was students or teachers walking around.

Fortunately, the students were very obedient, and Caesar finished his work in a short while.

The school's auditorium is a circular tiered classroom that occupies a large area, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate this year's 1,200 freshmen.

There were too many people, so Caesar found a seat at the back of the classroom and sat down. There were some other people here, and judging by their ages, they should be teachers.

A pink-haired and gentle-looking female teacher came over when she saw Caesar sitting here: "Student, which class are you from?"

"Hello, I'm Caesar." Caesar pulled at the ID card issued by the school on his clothes. He had to take this ID card to the gargoyle in the department office to clock in every day.

"Are you Mr. Caesar? I'm so sorry, you look really young!" After taking a look at the work badge and finding that it was not a fake, the teacher covered his mouth in surprise: "I have heard of you, we will be colleagues from now on. My name is Evia, Evia Della, please take care of me!"

After hearing the conversation between the two, a man with brown hair who looked a bit like a King Kong came over and said, "Are you Mr. Caesar? My name is Kun Gang, and I'm a potion teacher. Nice to meet you!"

He extended his right hand towards Caesar, looking very kind. To be honest, seeing his strong pectoral muscles, Caesar thought he was a swordsman. He looked more like a melee professional.

Several other teachers also came over to get to know Nishize and introduced themselves one by one.

A middle-aged man with green hair, extremely pale skin and looking a bit kidney-deficient is the instructor of curse magic, named Quill. A white-haired man with some fox blood is the instructor of summoning magic, named Yuka.

As for Miss Evia at the beginning, she is a lecturer of magical pets.

"This is the first time that your Magical Mechanics course is offered in our school. I only heard about it in the Magic Continent before. It is a very novel experience for me. I will go to audit it when the time comes." Quill looked at Caesar and said, "It seems to be tomorrow. Save a good seat for me then."

"Of course." Caesar nodded. It is necessary to have a good relationship with colleagues.

"I'm new here and I don't understand a lot of things. How about I treat you all to dinner tonight? There are a lot of things I need to ask you seniors for advice on."

"We can have dinner, but forget about asking you to pay." Miss Evia smiled and shook her head: "After all, we are seniors, so it doesn't make sense for us to ask you to pay."

Several other teachers also echoed this.

The simple greetings soon ended as the opening ceremony began.

The principal was not there this year, and it was Dean Jessica who read the speech on the stage.

"Dear students..." Dean Jessica adjusted her gold-rimmed glasses and began her speech.

In addition to the hope for students to thrive and expectations for the future development of the school, the main content also includes some arrangements for students.

If students want to avoid repeating a grade, in addition to completing the required credits for their major courses, they must also take three or more elective courses. Otherwise, they will not have enough credits to get a diploma.

There is nothing else to do after the student ceremony today, and students can arrange their time freely.

In the following week, professors of various courses will offer open classes, and students can choose their elective courses after a trial lesson.

There are two types of elective courses: one is the courses that can only be chosen by students in a specific department, and the other is the courses that can be chosen by students in any department. The courses taught by Nishizawa and several teachers around him belong to the latter.

The school is divided into four departments, namely the Department of Prophecy, the Department of Transfiguration, the Department of Shaping and finally the Department of Spirituality. The students' robes are blue, red, green and gray respectively.

There are three ways to enroll in a magic university. One is for the school's professors or teachers to write letters of recommendation for admission, and the second is the limited number of recommendation places available at different magic academies in different places.

The last type is the school enrollment that starts in June every year. As long as everyone passes the exam, they can be admitted. This is the school’s main source of enrollment.

The first place in the entrance examination will give a speech as a representative of the freshmen at the opening ceremony.

Dean Jessica gave a speech on the stage: "Magic is a magical thing. In addition to relying on your talent, it also needs your hard work as food to grow."

She adjusted her glasses and said, "Achievements at this time can only mean that your previous efforts have been rewarded. In the future, you still need to push yourself to move forward."

"But that doesn't mean you shouldn't be proud of your previous efforts. On the contrary, you should thank yourself for your hard work every day and night. It is you who have made you what you are today."

The voice suddenly became louder: "Next, let's welcome this year's outstanding freshman representative, Barryka Dex, to give us a speech!"

Eh? Didn't she run away from the family? I didn't expect her to come to school. After all, something like that happened at her coming-of-age ceremony, and Xi Ze thought it would be a blow to her.

It seems that her condition has not been affected by previous events and she looks good.

She still looked beautiful and charming, her red hair fluttering as she walked up to the podium. The freshmen in the audience were in an uproar, marveling at her excellence and beauty.

She is wearing a green robe. She is a freshman in the plastic surgery department this year.

The freshman ceremony ended quickly and the classes left.

Xi Ze had to do some work, such as preparing lessons, because several teachers had other things to do. After chatting for a while, Xi Ze and several teachers made an appointment to have dinner at a restaurant at 7 o'clock tonight.

He planned to go find Dean Jessica and ask her about her next plans and whether she wanted to have lunch with him at noon.

Walking all the way to Dean Jessica's office. On the seventh floor, Caesar unexpectedly found Barryca Dex wandering outside Dean Jessica's door.

The girl was looking at the ground with her head down, biting her lower lip tightly, probably hesitating whether to knock on the door.

"Is there anything wrong? Why don't we go inside and talk?" Caesar asked, but this seemed to scare her.

"No, nothing, please go in." She stepped aside to open the office door, Caesar knocked on the door, and Dean Jessica's voice came from inside.

"Please come in!"

Caesar opened the office door and walked in. The red-haired girl behind him hesitated for a moment and was about to turn around and leave when Professor Jessica in the office called out again, "Barica, come in too."

The dean is a legendary figure, and he must have known that she had been lingering at the door for so long.

"Xize, what do you want?" asked the old lady.

"Ah, it's nothing important. I just want to ask if you are going to eat later?"

The old lady thought for a moment and said, "Well, forget it. Just bring some for me. Wait a minute."

"What's wrong, Barryka? Is there something wrong?" the old lady asked gently.

Barica looked very conflicted. She glanced at Caesar, hesitated for a moment, and suddenly bowed to the dean.

"I'm sorry to trouble you." Her face was red, and she seemed a little ashamed and angry, with her head lowered.

Upon seeing this, Dean Jessica quickly stood up from behind her desk and helped Barryka up.

"No, child, don't do that."

The dean's expression was very gentle. As an educator, her face showed a motherly feeling.

“No one gets to choose their family.”

She patted Barica on the shoulder and said, "But this doesn't mean we lack the courage to resist."

"If you have any difficulties at school, you can tell me, or you can ask Caesar, we will help you."

Barica said nothing, but nodded.

"If you want to control your own destiny, you have to become stronger."

Barica nodded firmly, "I will."

"How about I step aside for a while?" Caesar said using wind magic, and the dean nodded.

Caesar went out and closed the office door. About ten minutes later, the office door opened.

"Xize, I have something else to do. Please take Barricka out for dinner." The dean handed over his work badge.

"Let Barica swipe my magic crystal card. I won't go."

On the way to the cafeteria, Xi Ze still felt a little awkward. He expressed his sympathy for the girl. He would also feel awkward if he didn't say anything.

But after thinking about it, there was nothing much to say. After thinking about it, Caesar asked, "Have you thought about what courses to choose?"

Barica shook her head: "Not yet."

"Then you can come and listen to my magic mechanics tomorrow, maybe it will be of some help to you."

"I will." She nodded, still embarrassed.

She has been like this since she came out of teacher Jessica's place. She seems to be a little closed off, but Caesar said he can understand this.

After casually finishing his lunch, Caesar separated from Barricka. Caesar brought some food to Dean Jessica. The old lady still needed to eat something.

Although this old man can blow up the school’s lighthouse with one fireball.

Sitting on the sofa in the dean's office, Caesar waited for the old lady to finish eating and take the dishes away to wash.

The old lady took two bites and said, "Xize, how about letting you accept a disciple?"

"Disciple?" Caesar said, "Me? Am I a little anxious?"

"And who will you accept?"

"How about that Barica just now?"

"She? But I'm only nineteen years old. Isn't it inappropriate to accept her as my disciple?" Caesar scratched his head.

"That's just what I said. Don't worry." He blew on the spoon. Although the legendary level was not afraid of this temperature, the dean was still used to doing this, which made him feel more alive.

"This child is really pitiful. If I hadn't looked for her place the day before yesterday, she might have had difficulty getting enrolled in school." The old lady frowned.

"Her family isn't good people. They might come to school to cause trouble in the next two days. You better be careful."

The old lady narrowed her eyes and showed a bit of majesty.

"They don't have the courage to do it openly, but they might try some small tricks," Caesar said.

"Anyway, you better be careful and don't let them take Barica back."

----------

The evening plan was to have dinner with future colleagues at a small restaurant outside the school.

Xi Ze's future office will be next to the teachers he met today.

After the meal, Xi Ze and several colleagues became much more familiar with each other.

Miss Evia's hair is pink, and Caesar is very curious about it.

"I've read many books, but I still can't find out where my pink hair color comes from." Teacher Evia drank some wine and her face turned slightly red.

"So I found a professor from the prophecy department to help me determine my bloodline composition." At this point, Teacher Evia smiled, revealing two cute little fangs.

"I think I have some elven blood." She took another sip of wine. "According to my father, my parents had a fight when I was born. Because of my pink hair."

Everyone laughed.

"Speaking of which, has Teacher Caesar studied in the Demon Continent?" Teacher Quill asked curiously, "It seems that the study of magic mechanics has not yet become a system in the Orn Empire. The magic mechanics in the country are simply engraved with magic arrays. Rather than calling them magic mechanics, they are more like carriers of magic arrays."

"Yes, yes, I'm curious about this too. Is this course you opened the result of Dean Jessica's work?" Kun Gang said, "Sorry, that's not what I meant. I'm just a little curious."

"Teacher Jessica gave me some pointers for this course, and I conducted some research based on this. I'd like to share my research findings mainly." Xize said this. Borrowing the name of Dean Jessica can make his words more credible. After all, he is relatively young, and Xize doesn't know what the academic world here is like. He also has little experience, so it's better for him to be low-key.

"Oh, you are really promising at a young age." Kun Gang said.
