Oh, heavens!

There really were still good people in this world!

Ning Weiyang's eyes brimmed with tears. She had won the gamble!

With Xue Qinghe's permission, she climbed into the carriage.

Even the curtains inside the luxurious carriage were embroidered with gold thread, and Ning Weiyang could not help touching them a few extra times.

It was a two-seat carriage, so Ning Weiyang could only sit beside Xue Qinghe. A rectangular tea table stood before them, laden with delicious pastries and tea.

Ning Weiyang stared at the plates of pastries and swallowed uncontrollably.

Ever since she had been driven out of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, she had not eaten anything.

"Grrrr..."

Her stomach growled betrayingly.

Ning Weiyang's cheeks reddened as she instinctively covered her stomach.

Stupid stomach!

Have some dignity!

Yet the rumbling from her stomach only grew more frequent, and Ning Weiyang wanted nothing more than to find a crack in the ground and crawl into it.

"If you're hungry, eat. It would be a waste otherwise."

Xue Qinghe heard it clearly. He moved the pastries across the table toward her in invitation.

Fragile little girls always stirred people's protective instincts, and Xue Qinghe was no exception.

Seeing Ning Weiyang's frail appearance, he was even a little worried that she might be bullied if she went to school.

The moment he finished speaking, Ning Weiyang began wolfing down the food.

Having gone so long without eating, she found everything she ate now to be heavenly delicacies.

A bite of pastry, a sip of water—better than living like an immortal!

"If that's not enough, we can go to the cafeteria later."

Seeing this, Xue Qinghe added.

Ning Weiyang nodded repeatedly. She truly would not be full from this alone!

Before long, the carriage arrived before Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Xue Qinghe got out first and helped Ning Weiyang down from outside.

Holding his hand, Ning Weiyang jumped down.

The Heaven Dou Royal Academy before her could only be described as magnificent.

The three-story building was divided into two halves from top to bottom. One half was constructed from golden marble, while a metal archway stood in the middle, rising more than three hundred meters high. At its peak, a golden dome complemented crystal tiles, giving the whole structure a dazzling brilliance that looked both solemn and sacred.

It truly was worthy of being an aristocratic academy.

Ning Weiyang followed behind Xue Qinghe as they entered the academy one after the other.

Inside the academy, students wore uniform attire and chatted and laughed together in groups of two or three. The place was very lively.

After passing several teaching buildings, Xue Qinghe led Ning Weiyang to the Education Committee's office.

The three members of the Education Committee were gathered in the office. When they saw Xue Qinghe enter, they all put down their work and stepped forward to welcome this unexpected distinguished guest.

"Your Highness."

Meng Shenji and the other two bowed together, wondering what wind had brought the Crown Prince here.

Xue Qinghe nodded. "No need for formalities. I came unannounced today because I wish to entrust someone to the care of the three seniors."

Meng Shenji and the other two froze, exchanging glances. "Who?"

Xue Qinghe stepped aside, revealing Ning Weiyang behind him. "I would like to recommend this child for admission to Heaven Dou Royal Academy. Three committee members, would that be possible?"

Meng Shenji looked at Ning Weiyang without the slightest hesitation. "Of course."

Most of Heaven Dou Royal Academy's students were children of nobles. Those recommended by the royal family naturally counted among them as well, so they had no reason to refuse.

"Has your martial soul awakened?"

Meng Shenji asked.

He needed to arrange her class according to her circumstances and see which class this child should be assigned to.

Xue Qinghe looked at Ning Weiyang, letting her answer for herself.

Ning Weiyang pressed her lips together, feeling somewhat embarrassed. She could only say timidly, "My martial soul is a Peony Flower..."

"My Innate Soul Power is level three..."

"..."
