Wu Yu doesn't like traveling. He enjoys chatting with people and working until he's exhausted, but he can't muster any interest in these still, unchanging landscapes.

Even the most outstanding works of art cannot match the changes in the human heart by even a fraction.

Looking at these inanimate objects before him, Wu Yu might see them as a microcosm of an era, but he merely regarded them as coordinates on a map.

That's probably why he became a homebody, Wu Yu thought to himself with a self-deprecating smile.

Today's itinerary included accompanying Violet on a tour of the campus, but that didn't include Philliss being with her, something Wu Yu was completely unprepared for.

Even though they had only just met, the two of them gradually showed signs of becoming irreconcilable enemies.

Wu Yu knew that Violet was doing it on purpose. She just wanted to find someone her own age to compete with and find some novelty for herself. Even though she was the one who started the trouble, Wu Yu couldn't find a good reason to stop her.

Two women make a drama. Originally, this was just a physical task, but now it has turned into a mental one. If Wu Yu hadn't been there to ease the tension, who knows what would have happened.

Moreover, because these two women have such strong auras, it's fine if they're alone, but when they're together, no one dares to get close. Even Pansy, the tool Violet found this morning, has disappeared.

The torment Wu Yu had endured finally came to an end when the class assignment announcement was released.

Wu Yu and his group arrived relatively late. When they reached the college's bulletin board, a large number of students had already gathered there.

However, Wu Yu and his group didn't need to compete with these people for the ranking spots like they used to. Philliss just stood to the side, and the students obediently made room for him.

That's the advantage of having power and influence. Even though Wu Yu said he didn't care about these things, when he used his privileges, all he could say was, "It feels so good!"

The class assignment list was created using a projection magic technique. Although it looked cool, it wasn't much different from the billboards in my previous life.

There are quite a few students. Wu Yu glanced around and estimated that there were probably more than a thousand new students. Wasn't this supposed to be a prestigious school? But considering that even someone like him could get in, the so-called prestigious threshold was probably a bit exaggerated.

Finding his own name was relatively easy, because the class division here was clearly based on aptitude, decreasing from left to right. So Wu Yu simply started looking from the far right.

It's really obvious; Wu Yu's name is right there in the last position of the last class.

"Wu Yu, a magic apprentice in Class 3, Grade D, has a magic affinity of 50."

It has student levels and qualifications, but no attributes, which probably also serves as a new student ranking list.

Looking up the list, Wu Yu quickly found Phillis's name. She was in the same class as him, and the two of them were probably the worst students in this year's class.

But Wu Yu doesn't need to feel inferior. People with magical aptitude are one in a hundred, and there are many ordinary people who don't even have the opportunity to learn magic.

Although it's a bit embarrassing to be assigned to a lower class, Wu Yu thinks it's not bad. As Confucius said, teaching according to aptitude is the best teaching method. If he, a magic novice, were to attend classes with those top students, he would rather go home and sleep. At least a bed is more comfortable than a desk.

Wu Yu boldly guessed that this was probably why Philliss chose to come to this class for underachievers.

Soon, Wu Yu found Violet's name again.

“Class B, Grade 2 Violet, Second-Tier Mage, Magic Affinity 80”

Violet's ranking is quite high, but when did she become a second-tier mage? Wu Yu only noticed this now, but there really isn't much difference between first and second tier, so Wu Yu didn't pay much attention to it.

Moreover, Wu Yu discovered that this school must be bored out of its mind, as there wasn't a single student in Class A. According to the class division, only students with a magic affinity of 90 or higher could enter Class A. However, the highest aptitude in this year's class was only 87. Since there were no students, why not just raise the level by one level? That way, everyone would feel proud, wouldn't they?

"Class B, Class 3, assemble!" "Class C, Class 2, assemble!"

At this moment, a group of teachers shouted from outside the venue. It is estimated that they used amplification technology, because their shouts could be heard clearly even in such a noisy environment.

The crowd began to disperse, and the students who had seen the class assignments went to their respective homeroom teachers. Only Wu Yu and Phillis stood there alone, because their homeroom teacher had not yet appeared.

"Wu Yu, no need to look anymore, our homeroom teacher probably isn't coming," Phillis said to Wu Yu, who had been looking around anxiously.

"Why?" Wu Yu was puzzled. "Don't be so arbitrary. What if they were just late?"

“My homeroom teacher was specially chosen for me by the dean. I heard that he has a bit of an eccentric temper and likes to let his students run wild. He hasn’t shown up yet, so he must have forgotten about it,” Phillis explained.

So he was dragged into this mess. Having such an irresponsible homeroom teacher, Wu Yu really had no choice. "What should we do now?"

“Once all the students arrive, the teacher will probably take us to the opening ceremony, but the opening ceremony is basically just listening to the old man rambling on, so it’s fine to skip it. Wu Yu, why don’t we go out and have some fun?” Phillis suggested.

"No way, I don't have your connections. If I skip school on the first day, I'm afraid they'll just expel me." Wu Yu waved his hands repeatedly. He knew Phillis wasn't the kind of goody-two-shoes, but Wu Yu didn't like challenging authority.
