After the sun set, the dean and Anqi's teacher left.
“Wang Han, let’s go to the academy’s market together. You can feed your summoned beast too! We have money now,” Angie said to Wang Han after the dean left.
“No need, this amount of money isn’t even enough for one meal for them,” Wang Han shook his head and said, “Besides, their coming out would cause a sensation and panic.”
Wang Han was indeed telling the truth. Even he himself didn't know the exact number of pets in his Divine Might Space, and aside from a few, almost all of them were enormous. While he didn't know the purchasing power of 20,000 gold coins, Wang Han was certain that it wouldn't even be enough to feed them properly, let alone fill a tooth gap. The entire city probably wouldn't be enough for a single meal. Wang Han fed them using multiplication and expansion abilities to create various kinds of food. He also set up many storage points within the space, some housing giant livestock managed by super-giant pets, and others storing large quantities of pet food like dog food and water. Even during his period of slumber, the food there could last for over a hundred years. After all, Wang Han had spent nearly ten years of his free time specifically building his Divine Might Space.
“It’s alright, Wang Han. If we don’t have enough money, we can think of other ways. Besides, 20,000 gold can buy 1,500 catties of meat, and we can mix it with some other vegetables to feed it. I can’t let your summoned beast go hungry and leave you because of me. 20,000 gold should be enough to last until we reach the Monster Forest.” Anqi thought Wang Han was trying to comfort her and quickly said. After all, if she hadn’t summoned Wang Han, he wouldn’t be in his current predicament.
"Alright!" Seeing Anqi's worried and guilty eyes, Wang Han finally nodded. It's just money, he can always find a way to get it.

Once on the street, Wang Han realized he had been too naive. He wondered if everything in the academy or the world required money, since even grass had to be bought. No wonder An Qi had only ever kept one rabbit. But then again, it made sense; if the grass in the garden was free to eat, it would have been gone long ago.
What frustrated Wang Han even more was the currency problem of this world. The currency of this world was energy, which was energy-containing crystals. Moreover, all transactions were conducted using crystal cards issued by the state. The crystal cards contained deposit data (similar to bank cards). Special alchemical items were required for the transaction to change the data on the card. Furthermore, the data could only be changed once between two cards in person, with the total amount remaining unchanged (similar to a card reader). The state also established a special agency to manage and supervise crystal card transactions. Only this agency could perform single additions or subtractions on the data in the crystal cards (similar to a bank). In short, it had many similarities to the transaction model of bank cards, except that the unit was not gold or yuan, but crystals, which represented the amount of energy.
Trading with crystal cards was giving Wang Han a headache. It wasn't that Wang Han couldn't directly generate money; he hadn't been troubled by money since his transmigration, and could even obtain large sums using illusion magic. However, this would undoubtedly attract unnecessary trouble. But while he couldn't directly generate money, Wang Han could sell it. He could find some valuable materials in the future and multiply them.
Finally, Anqi and Wang Han bought over 300 jin of meat and a large pile of vegetable leaves. Wang Han summoned the two-headed wolf that could heal to carry them back to the Divine Might Space. After buying some daily necessities for Wang Han, the two returned.
The next day, the academy's teachers delivered Anqi's class transfer decision. Perhaps the academy felt that with Wang Han as a powerful companion, Anqi would soar to great heights sooner or later, or perhaps it was because Wang Han gave Anqi a two-headed wolf cub. Anqi was transferred to the Summoner's Elite Class, while Vivian remained in the Elite Class.
During these two weeks, students and teachers also began preparing for the hike.
——————————————
Time passed day by day, and soon half a month had gone by.
On the first day of the month, all the first-year students of the college gathered in the college square under the guidance of their respective teachers.
Wang Han stood with Anqi and Vivian, listening to the academy dean's speech using amplification magic and his explanation of the practical training in the Monster Forest, yawning with boredom. These matters had already been explained in detail to the students by their teachers beforehand.
Simply put, the Warcraft Forest Expedition is a month-long hunting trip organized by the academy for its students to a suitable Warcraft Forest nearby. The game hunted belongs to each team or individual and can also be sold to the academy. This activity serves two purposes: to improve students' combat skills and to supplement their living and study expenses.
The academy also required students to form teams, rationally arranging their combat lineups. Teams had to be between fifteen and twenty members, and students couldn't stray too far from other teams. Students weren't allowed to act alone or separate from their teams. Of course, teams could cooperate once inside the Monster Forest. Each student had to carry three scrolls to cast distress spells. Vivian chose to team up with Angie, since with the expert Wang Han by her side, both safety and prey were guaranteed. Wang Han was summoned by Angie, so it wasn't considered a violation of the rules.
On the podium, the dean spoke for a long time, finally finishing all the matters he needed to explain. It was almost noon, and the teachers of each class began to distribute the "Life and Death Contracts." Students who hadn't signed them weren't allowed to travel together, but they could have a month's vacation. After that came lunchtime, which was also the time for students to find teammates.
