Beauty of Resilience 05

About:

In the Mortal Realm’s Wei Kingdom, the dream of immortality fuels generations—but for ordinary people, it's a fantasy just out of reach. Wei Zhi has lived her life in the shadows, branded unlucky and avoided by those around her. Quiet but unyielding, she steps forward to take part in the cultivation test that could change her fate. When a mythical Phoenix figure appears during the ceremony—an omen unseen for centuries—Wei Zhi and her entire group are chosen to attend the elite Egret Academy. There, noble-born prodigies clash under the fierce guidance of Yan Yue, a stern instructor with an unforgiving teaching style. But Yan Yue hides a greater truth: he is the Monarch of the Heavens, sent to the mortal world with a secret mission—to find and destroy the Phoenix, a being said to bring ruin to the three realms. Bound by celestial laws and hidden agendas, Yan Yue did not expect Wei Zhi—the so-called cursed girl—to challenge his mission with her quiet brilliance and unwavering spirit. As the line between hunter and hunted begins to blur, destiny unravels, and both will be forced to question the true nature of fate, power, and the Phoenix itself.
