Sun Qingyi continued to introduce the types of books in the library, but she sounded more like an elder than a peer.

The Seven Shrek Devils listened attentively, hoping to learn the secret of the City of Miracles. When they heard about the books on cultivation methods and explanations in the library, Tang Wulin and the others' eyes sparkled. They secretly decided to make the library their first priority.

Under Sun Qingyi's guidance, they reached the back of the library. There was a building with a white theme. Sun Qingyi didn't need to explain. The words on the building told the Seven Shrek Devils that this was the Academic Affairs Office.

Even though the name of the office was clearly written on the building, Sun Qingyi still said seriously, "This is the Academic Affairs Office. This is where all the teachers work after class. The Student Union office is also in this building. If you need anything from me, you can usually find me here."

She then told them which floor his office was on, and what departments were on the other floors, and where the teachers of each subject worked.

The Seven Shrek Devils followed Sun Qingyi to the door of the Academic Affairs Office. Sun Qingyi swiped a card on a reader, and the door opened with a clang.

Tang Wulin and the others looked at the card in his hand. Sun Qingyi raised his right hand and said, "I almost forgot to mention, this is the identity card of the academy. It can prove your identity, and it's also necessary for accessing the academy."

"Whether it's the dormitory, the teaching building, the academic office, the gymnasium, or any other place, you need to use this card to enter. Besides that, it also records your grades, mistakes, and other things in the academy."

"It also has a trading function, and you need to use it for eating and shopping. I remember that your Shrek Academy uses something similar. I won't say more. I'm sure you'll get used to it soon."

As they talked, they arrived at the lobby on the first floor of the Academic Affairs Office. When they walked to the center of the hall, Sun Qingyi said the name of the department, and they felt a shift. They found themselves at a door.

Sun Qingyi opened the door and said, "The lobby of every building is a teleportation device. As long as you think about where you want to go, you can be sent to the door. But you need an identity card for that. When you have an identity card, you can do what I did."

They followed Sun Qingyi through the door and saw rows of filing cabinets. Tang Wulin and the others looked puzzled. Sun Qingyi said, "This is where the information of the academy staff is stored. I don't know why they use paper documents."

Tang Wulin said, "Maybe it's because if they use computers to store data, it might get lost if the computers break down. It's not safe to put it on the network either, so they probably use both machines and physical records."

He said this because he saw someone sitting in front of a computer, busy with something. She seemed to be in charge of recording and organizing information.

The girl with a single ponytail spoke in a clear, cold voice. "Don't talk nonsense if you don't know. This computer is not just for recording. It's also an output tool. You just enter what you want to record, hold it in the filing cabinet, and the file will be created."

Tang Wulin and the others were surprised by her words. They had never heard of such a file generation method.

Tang Wulin looked at Sun Qingyi and asked, "Can you show us how the file is created? If it's not too much trouble, that is."

Tang Wulin was sincere, but Sun Qingyi's expression didn't change. She just smiled and said, "It's no secret. You can see it if you want. But you might be disappointed."

She saw Tang Wulin's disbelief and explained, "You attended the product launch before, right? It's similar to how a soul ring generator and a soul bone generator produce soul rings and soul bones. You'll understand when you see it."

She took a stack of documents from the girl in front of the computer and handed them to Tang Wulin and the others. "You need to fill these out first."

As Sun Qingyi gave them the documents, another girl said angrily, "Why are you wasting time with them? They won't be here for long."

Sun Qingyi smiled and said, "Sister Song, they are the Shrek Seven Devils from Shrek Academy. We should respect them, or else what will people think of our City of Miracles?"

The girl surnamed Song lowered her head slightly, but her expression showed that she didn't care about the Shrek Seven Devils.

The two girls spoke in low voices, but the hall was empty and the Shrek Seven Devils heard everything. They felt annoyed, but they didn't want to cause trouble in the City of Miracles Soul Master Academy.

They quickly filled out the documents and gave them back to Sun Qingyi. She passed them to the girl named Song and said, "I'll leave the rest to you, Sister Song."

The girl surnamed Song waved her hand, telling Sun Qingyi to go away. Sun Qingyi smiled and said to Tang Wulin, "Don't mind Sister Song. She's always like this. By the way, you wanted to see how the file is created, right? Come with me."

She led Tang Wulin and the others to the file room. They noticed that the file room was bigger than it seemed. There were rows of file cabinets as far as they could see. The space was obviously enhanced by technology.

They followed Sun Qingyi to a filing cabinet that was labeled temporary files. It was empty.

They wondered if Sun Qingyi had made a mistake, but then they saw something unbelievable. A shadow of a document appeared and then solidified quickly.

It looked a bit like the generation of soul bones and soul rings at the product launch, but it was much faster. The shadow lasted for a split second. But they realized that these files were just records. They had no special effects. It was normal.
