Feeding a massive spiritual pet is no easy task, and even the food expenses are extraordinarily high.
If the Frost Giant Bear were in an ordinary household, it would have bankrupted them long ago.
With a heart full of grievances, the Frost Giant Bear turned its sorrow into appetite and began eating voraciously.
After breakfast, Ye Ling went straight back to his room. As for Yun Yi, she said she needed to catch up with Ye Ling, so she took the Frost Giant Bear directly to the training room.
Before leaving the dining area, Ye Ling could still see the Frost Giant Bear's resentful eyes.
Who wouldn't feel resentful?
Just after getting a bit full and replenishing its energy, it was dragged off to train again.
At this moment, in Hong Xiu's room.
Hong Xiu was in a video call, and the person on the other end was none other than the Principal of Vermilion Bird Academy.
A golden mask covered the Principal's face, revealing only a pair of eyes. No one knew what the Principal of Vermilion Bird Academy actually looked like.
"Principal, I have something to report to you."
Seeing the Principal, Hong Xiu sat up straight and spoke.
Hearing this, Principal Vermilion Bird nodded slightly, and a cold voice echoed.
"Hong Xiu, is there any unusual phenomenon?"
Hong Xiu shook her head and recounted everything she knew.
"Principal, the male student Ye Ling I mentioned to you before, he successfully broke through to the Second Rank after a battle last night.
Not only that, he has successfully contracted a second spiritual pet. As for the type of pet, it seems to be a Fire Bird, but there doesn't seem to be any record of it in the Federation."
After Hong Xiu finished sharing this information, a trace of surprise flashed in Principal Vermilion Bird's eyes.
Of course, it was just a trace, not as shocked as Hong Xiu had been.
This was because Principal Vermilion Bird had experienced enough in life to remain calm and composed.
Even a slight hint of surprise in her eyes was already quite significant.
After a moment of silence, Principal Vermilion Bird finally spoke.
"It seems your decision was correct. This Ye Ling might indeed have something special.
To break through to the Second Rank at such a young age is quite impressive. Moreover, he can use spiritual techniques beyond his level. I have high hopes for his future."
It was rare for Principal Vermilion Bird to give such praise, even to the most outstanding students.
Even Hong Xiu had never seen Principal Vermilion Bird praise a student so highly.
Then, Principal Vermilion Bird added another instruction.
"Return as soon as possible. I will be waiting for you at the Academy, and I look forward to meeting this Ye Ling."
Hong Xiu immediately responded.
"Yes, Principal."
Then, Principal Vermilion Bird ended the video call.
Hong Xiu, left with the ended call, showed no signs of displeasure.
When talking to her superior, she naturally had to wait for her superior to end the call. She could only wait silently.
"Phew! Ye Ling, you have now fully entered the Principal's radar. I hope… you can become even stronger in the future."
If Principal Vermilion Bird had initially recruited Ye Ling with a mindset of giving it a try, now she had fully acknowledged him.
No matter what, Ye Ling was the first male student ever recruited by Vermilion Bird Academy. Principal Vermilion Bird might not have paid much attention to him initially.
To gain attention, one naturally needed to demonstrate corresponding abilities, and it was clear that Ye Ling had now achieved that.
…
In the following days, the airship journey was smooth sailing.
There were no interruptions from any demons, and the situation they encountered on the first night was a rare occurrence.
During these days, Ye Ling was almost idle.
He took the opportunity to read through the Academy's rules.
However, since Vermilion Bird Academy was a girls' school, many of the rules were aimed at females, making Ye Ling's reading almost pointless.
As for Yun Yi, she spent all day in the training room, rigorously training her Frost Giant Bear.
During this period, she finally broke through to the Eighth Level of the First Rank, and the Frost Giant Bear had grown significantly stronger.
After the breakthrough, Yun Yi didn't stop; instead, she intensified the training.
This made the Frost Giant Bear utterly miserable, exhausted from training every day. By nightfall, it didn't even want to move.
Especially when it saw the leisurely Feng Jiu and Blood Phantom, the Frost Giant Bear was deeply resentful. Whenever it saw Blood Phantom and Feng Jiu, it always looked at them with resentful eyes.
It envied Blood Phantom and Feng Jiu, who spent their days eating, drinking, and having fun without a care in the world.
It longed for such a life, but unfortunately, it couldn't have it.
One morning, after breakfast, Hong Xiu called Ye Ling and Yun Yi to the training room.
Yun Yi, of course, had already been in the training room for a while, while Ye Ling arrived a bit later.
"Teacher Hong, what's the matter?"
The two stood before Hong Xiu, and Yun Yi asked.
