Xi Xue waited for a while until Bíng Huo came back. Once she came back, she took out all her stuff from the spatial ring and decorated her area with it.

  Surprisingly, the decoration wasn’t girly at all its more neutral because all Xi Xue could see was the girl making the room looked like a mini forest.

  "Okay, done!" Bíng Huo put a huge board decorated with plants to separate her area with Xi Xue’s area.

  With this, the room looked like a private room for each other.

  "Uh……you sure you want to put that board there?" Xi Xue frowned. "We only have one door and that’s in my area-"

  "Don’t worry, look, I leave a leeway enough for a person to come and goes." Bíng Huo went out of her area and walked toward Xi Xue who was sitting on his bed.

  "We have our own bathroom too so this is convenient," The girl added.

  "……why are you so secretive?" Xi Xue suddenly inquired. The man looked at Bíng Huo and blinked. "You look as if you want to hide something from me……"

  Bíng Huo flinched. The girl looked down and fidgeted. "I really appreciate personal space so……"

  ’It’s because I’m a girl, bro!! My gender will be exposed if I’m not so secretive!’ The girl silently thought.

  Hearing Bíng Huo’s answer, Xi Xue sighed.

  ’So she intends to live as a man for a long time? And why is that?’


  Xi Xue suddenly felt his heart ached for no reason. He furrowed his eyebrows for a second before acting as if nothing happened.

  "Okay, as you really appreciate personal space, I’ll respect your decision." Xi Xue shrugged as he got off the bed. "So, when will you show me to the beast tamer department?"

  The man slowly approached Bíng Huo and stopped right in front of her. "Hm?" He inched his face closer.

  Bíng Huo couldn’t help but blush. The girl took a few steps back while fanning her face. "Let’s go now. I’ll show you the way."

  The girl turned around and left the room before Xi Xue could. Seeing this, Xi Xue only whistled and followed after her.

  The two of them arrived at the beast tamer department and Bíng Huo introduced each section to the man.

  "And that’s all. The last place you have to visit is the Dong Xi Academy’s mountain." Bíng Huo dusted off her palm. "That mountain is used for an exam or tournament so you have to visit it."

  "Mountain?" Xi Xue squinted. His mind recalled the ice eagle he knew from Jiu Wei.

  "The ice eagle your grandpa talked about, does it live at the mountain?" Xi Xue asked in curiosity.

  Bíng Huo walked away from the department while nodding. "Yes, the ice eagle lives there and usually there are special students chosen to attend her."

  "……are you one of them?" Xi Xue hurriedly walk toward Bíng Huo and stayed next to her, walking side by side.

  "Yeah, I’m one of them. In the past, there was this one senior we all respect, and he is the one in charge of the eagle." Bíng Huo’s eyes sparkled.

  "He was an alumnus of this academy and you see, he is our school’s pride!" Bíng Huo suddenly started to talk about this unknown man, making Xi Xue frowned.

  ’What’s with that? A school idol? Someone I don’t know?’


  "How many years has it been since he studied here?" Xi Xue curiously asked.

  "Mmm my grandpa is the n-th headmaster of the academy and he said this student once attended our academy around 1000 years ago?"

  !

  "1000! This academy has existed for that long??" Xi Xue’s jaw dropped.

  ’No wonder this academy is so popular! Wait, so I am actually admitted to a rather prestigious academy??’


  "Yes, and our academy is the only academy with that long history and it’s all thanks to that senior I’m talking about." Bíng Huo flushed red, her eyes turned like that of a maiden in love.

  "I want to know this senior." Xi Xue gritted his teeth.

  ’I don’t know why but I feel irked.’


  "You will find his photo all over the school. I think you might already see one before." Bíng Huo tilted her head.

  ’No, how will I know there’s such a photo when I’m busy looking at you?’ Xi Xue rolled his eyes.

  "Ah, that, we have his photo at the dorm hall too." Bíng Huo took Xi Xue to the vast dorm hall. The hall had a long wooden table like the one used in the banquet.

  It was clearly made for breakfast, lunch and dinner.

  "That, that photo." Bíng Huo pointed her finger at a huge photo framed in gold, hanging on the dorm hall wall.

  Xi Xue clicked his tongue and looked at the direction Bíng Huo pointed. The guy was cursing whoever this senior was when he saw the photo.

  Xi Xue stiffened. His body froze and his eyes jumped out its socket.

  That! That!

  Long black hair, handsome face and the most important thing, distinguished golden eyes.

  Isn’t that……

  Xi Xue’s body trembled. The guy slowly opened his mouth and asked Bíng Huo, "That senior……who is his name……"

  "His name? Right, you have to know this once you become a student here." Bíng Huo nodded and flashed a smile as she answered, "His name is Long Ao Zhen!"

  BOOM!

  Something exploded in Xi Xue’s mind.

  ’His majesty?! He also attended this Academy?? But he is a dragon ah!!’


  Xi Xue’s face turned pale and recalling Bíng Huo said the guy was the one in charge of the ice eagle……

  Damn!
