Translated by Luxican

Unlike last time, when Feng Kuo walked through the gate with outsiders, the school guards didn't even say a word, let alone ask about the child on Feng Kuo's shoulder.
Yun Sheng didn't know that at this time, Feng Kuo is regarded as a hegemon in the Royal Magic Academy. He was nicknamed as the 'Fighting Machine'. Feng Kuo being a dual-cultivation practitioner was stronger than most the low-grade magic lecturers.
"Magic Fighting and Magic Potion? You can actually learn to refine potions in the Magic Academy?" Yun Sheng heard an unfamiliar term.
"Almost forgot, when you go to the admission office to complete the formalities, you must also immediately choose your future direction for magic study. After all, you enrolled later than the other freshmen. They have been studying for two months already," Although Feng Kuo looked rough, he was actually a thorough man.
He told Yun Sheng that there were two departments at the Royal Magic Academy, namely Magic Fighting and Magic Potion Department.
These two were also the two main fractions in the Magic Academy today. The so-called Magic Fighting Department was the study of combat magic. As for the Potion Department, it taught all kinds of magic in medicine, healing magic and potion making.
Every instructor had three students under them, and they are tasked with looking after the students under them, from the Magician to Magic Officer period.
Feng Kuo was a Magic Fighting instructor himself. Unfortunately, he already had three students under him. Otherwise he would have loved to take Yun Sheng under his wing.
"Healing magic? Is it only for light magicians?" Despite possessing a five-elemental Magic Soul, Yun Sheng couldn't comprehend or use light magic.
Xia Shiming's Light Magic during the Beast Blood Cloud encounter, had made a deep impression on her.
Another reason why she insisted on going to the Magic Academy was because she wanted to learn light magic through other ways, without the help from the Magic Temple.
"Of course not, after you start systematically learning magic, you will find that light is not the only element with the healing capabilities. For example, water magic used together with potions also has healing effects," as a Magic Master Feng Kuo had a great understanding of magic, much more than Yun Sheng.
He pondered for a moment and then said, "There are few people on the continent who can truly comprehend light magic. Most of the talented light magicians were all taken away by the Magic Temple. Since the establishment, The Magic Academy only found a single light magician. Unfortunately, that student isn't talented in combat."
Thinking back to the first time that student took a combat class, the muscles on Feng Kuo's face shook, that scene had been just too unbearable to watch.
While talking, Feng Kuo had brought Yun Sheng to the admission office of the Royal Magic Academy.
When they heard that Feng Kuo wanted to recommend Yun Sheng to enter the Royal Magic Academy with a special admission, the staff at the admission office looked embarrassed, "Lecturer Feng, unfortunately, this year's special admission spots in the Magic Fighting Department are already used up, we can't accept any more students."
"Oh! Is that so, Mr. Fu? I remember seeing your son in my combat class. Looks like I will have to give him some pointers in my next class." Feng Kuo stroked his chin, with a sullen face.
That staff was almost scared to death, Feng Kuo was a dual-cultivator of magic and douqi, he didn't have the restrictions on the physical weak magicians. His family only had one son, if he was to be "instructed" by Feng Kuo, he would be finished without the slightest chance of retaliation!
Mr. Fu, for one, vividly remembered a time, when a lecturer of the fire element spoke out of turn in front of him, and without using a bit of magic, he beat that person so much that they couldn't get out of the school infirmary for more than a month.
The little girl who had come in with Feng Kuo just now was so affectionately sitting on Feng Kuo's shoulder. She was probably Feng Kuo's illegitimate daughter. He can't offend them under any circumstances!
"Wait a minute, I will take another look," the magician flipped through the files in such a hurry that he couldn't even wipe the sweat off his forehead. "There, there is still a spot in the Potion Department. The school can also provide breakfast and lodging for free, but you would be a scholarship student of the Potion Department."
"A scholarship student of the Magic Potion Department? That's not going to happen, you know that the Potion Department has been riding the coattails of the Magic Fighting Department," Feng Kuo glared at the admission office staff with a pair of angry bear eyes.
"Mentor Feng, I'll just be a scholarship student of the Potion Department then, I have no problem with it, as long as I enroll as soon as possible." Yun Sheng heard what Feng Kuo had said, "Fighting Department or Potion Department, both will only be teaching elementary magic at the elementary level anyway."
Yun Sheng didn't really care about which department to join, besides the only person she knew at the Magic Academy, Gu Feng, was also a scholarship student of the Potion Department.
"In that case, I'll leave it be. If you can't get used to it, you can still switch departments," Feng Kuo, seeing that there was no other way, reluctantly agreed to let Yun Sheng join the Magic Potion Department.
"Now that you have decided on a department, you can pick a mentor, right now there are still a few free spots under the mentors of the Potion Department." The tutor at the admission office was relieved, and his impression of Yun Sheng became a lot better, it was truly a good thing that she didn't inherit her father's fiery temper.
***
At the Royal Magic Academy, it was tradition that the instructors chose their students, but this time, because of Feng Kuo, Yun Sheng could choose her own mentor.
"I choose her," Yun Sheng chose very simply this time, and pointed at one person on the instructors' list.
"Mei Li?! How could you choose that thieving bitch!" Who would have guessed that once Feng Kuo looked at the name that Yun Sheng picked, his eyes almost bulged out of their sockets and he had an ugly and constipated look.
The reason why Yun Sheng chose Mei Li was simple, Gu Feng was Mei Li's student, and the list showed that Mei Li only had two students under her, coincidentally she just had an open spot left.
Yun Sheng just laughed, she wanted to be in the same group as Gu Feng.
***
Several hours later, when she received the news sent by the admission office, Mei Li stormed off.
"The school has assigned another scholarship student to me? What? also under Feng Kuo's recommendation? No, I have to go to the admission office, Feng Kuo recommending someone for special admission, at a time like this spells trouble," after getting the news that she had a new student under her, Mei Li's beautiful face immediately turned murderous.
If someone asked her, who was the person she disliked the most in the entire Magic Academy? Then, if Feng Kuo ranked second, no one would rank first.
Feng Kuo also thought so.
"But, Instructor Mei Li, the new scholarship student this time is a girl, haven't you always complained that you have no female students?" Gu Feng stood aside with a green-robed student.
"Hmph, I want lively, cute, beautiful and smart female students, what do you think, with that feng Kuo's bear-like appearance, what kind of student would he recommend? Maybe, it's a female bear, do you guys want to study with a student like that?!" Mei Li gritted her teeth.
"I heard that the other party is only six-years-old and a dual fire and earth magician," Gu Feng interjected.
Mei Li's footsteps paused.
She looked at Gu Feng and the green-robed student in front of her and gave a long sigh, "Looking at you guys, I suddenly think a bear might be a cute animal."
