The Cockroach-like Girl Is My Beast

But never had I imagined that after showcasing the might of time reversal and toying with time, the principal's conversation would unfold in such an ordinary and down-to-earth afternoon setting.

Lin Guang pondered for a moment.

"No... it's just that this place is so ordinary that it caught me by surprise."

Li Jiatu chuckled lightly.

"Do you think you'll change in the future? I mean, in terms of mindset."

"..."

Lin Guang mused slightly: "I don't think there'll be much change."

The old man nodded and said, "Yes, I think so too."

"Because your True Intent is inclusive and desirous of everything type."

He said leisurely, "You won't abandon the things and emotions that used to move you just because you've encountered a broader world."

"You'll carry with you forever what you deem important."

"Many True Masters' True Intents indeed make them increasingly aloof, as those represent their perceived correctness and evolution."

"There are indeed many powerful beings like the elusive Divine Dragon, but there are also quite a few who maintain a mortal mindset."

"I'm like you, just one of the latter."

"Ultimately, there is no clear winner between being high above and blending in with the dust."

Lin Guang was silent for a while and nodded, "I've learned much."

Li Jiatu's gaze once again fell on the painting, sensing something:

"Did you bring your home here together?"

Lin Guang nodded in acknowledgment.

"Perfect."

Li Jiatu, hearing this, nodded with a smile:

"I was wondering what kind of dormitory style to arrange for you. It seems you've saved me some trouble."

He stood up, stretched out his hand, and gently pressed it onto the scroll.

"Come, let me help you settle in."

The next moment, Lin Guang only felt a blur before his eyes, and the surrounding scenery changed instantly.

When he regained his senses, the group found themselves floating above a serene and beautiful valley.

This was the area on the left edge of the school's mountains.

Surrounded by rolling green hills, mist enveloped the mountains.

At the bottom of the valley was a massive crystal-clear lake, its surface like a mirror reflecting the blue sky and white clouds.

A spectacular waterfall cascaded from a distant mountaintop into the lake, creating mists that formed a brilliant rainbow under the sunlight.

"Wow——!"

"So beautiful!"

Vishdair and Lisa's eyes lit up instantly, even Chelina's eyes flashed with amazement.

Lin Guang was momentarily dazed.

——The air here is moist and not dry at all.

The dozen or so flavored lip balms Miaomiao gave him might not be of much use.

"This place used to be where I took vacations, it's quiet."

Li Jiatu smiled and said, "Now, it's yours."

He continued, "You choose a spot yourself, and I'll help you set up the villa."

The group discussed for a moment and finally chose a flat grassland beside the lake directly facing the waterfall.

"This is the spot," Lin Guang said.

"Alright."

Li Jiatu nodded.

The next moment, everyone once again experienced the blur before their eyes.

It's like frames were extracted, their multi-story standalone villa, which they had meticulously designed and finalized, suddenly appeared intact on the grassland without any process or awareness, and the surrounding small garden seamlessly merged with the beautiful scenery of the valley.

Vishdair cheered and ran over, Chelina took out a key, holding Lisa's hand to open the door.

Only Remyu remained beside Lin Guang, somewhat envious, staring absentmindedly at the villa, seemingly wanting to say something.

But after thinking for a bit, she merely took out her phone, looked at Lin Guang with a playful smile, "Champion, let's add each other as friends."

"For the next few years, please take care of me."

After adding friends, Li Jiatu took her and disappeared from the spot.

From True Master Jing Ning's words and actions, Remyu seemed to have a special purpose for coming to Longteng University, searching for some answers, and the Holy Beast Blessing on her panel appeared quite mysterious.

Presumably, Li Jiatu took her separately to discuss matters possibly related to her foster father, which weren't suitable to discuss with him.

And the Heart of Terra attracting her, or perhaps being attracted by her, seemed to imply something as well.

However, at least, there was no urgency to explore all this on the first day of school.

Firstly...

Let's settle in.

After all, there's much to handle and contemplate.

Moreover, classes start tomorrow.

......

Before long.

The four retrieved their Spatial Spiritual Artifacts and luggage from the scroll, adjusted the Spirit Rune Array of the villa and various utilities, ensured safety and no damages, and finally settled in.

At this moment, Lin Guang was nestled in the middle of the three girls, lying sideways on the soft sofa in the living room, looking at his phone.

His slender fingers moved swiftly, reading the text on the screen at a speed that was incomprehensible to normal people, with dense information flowing like a waterfall and seemingly endless.

Currently, he was browsing the "System" app.

More precisely, it's the exchange list on the system and the newly unlocked exclusive interface for Longteng University.

Here, academic credits could be exchanged, but a Credit Level was still needed. Relatively speaking, there were quite a few items on the list that could not be seen outside.

The ways to earn academic credits were rather diverse:

Earn basic "subsistence points" by completing every public course seriously;

Substantial periodic rewards for successfully joining a research group and completing tasks;
