Other name: 花戎, 花熔, 误长生, Hua Rong, Wu Chang Sheng, Floral Armor

Description:

In the Wei Kingdom, where cultivating immortality is popular yet remains an unattainable dream for most commoners, resides Wei Zhi, a young lady burdened by a lifelong reputation for unluckiness. Despite this, her quiet actions belie a brave spirit. She courageously attends a coming-of-age ceremony, hoping to detect the presence of immortality root bones. During the ceremony, her group of thirty-six remarkably reveals a Phoenix figure in the mirror, leading to their swift enrollment at the prestigious Egret Academy for further studies.

At the academy, the outstanding third lady of the Wei Family emerges as a strong contender for possessing the legendary Phoenix bloodline. Meanwhile, the privileged students endure the harsh tutelage of the strict teacher, Yan Yue. Unbeknownst to them, Yan Yue is the Heavenly Monarch, who has descended to the Mortal World with a critical mission: to find and eliminate the Phoenix, an ancient being prophesied to destroy the three worlds. While forbidden to interfere with human affairs by heavenly laws, Yan Yue gradually finds himself drawn to the intelligent and tenacious Wei Zhi, admiring her unyielding resilience amidst adversity.
