ep 6 spoilers ahead

Okay, I am really wanting to like this show so I am back for more. Unfortunately, the earlier episodes had a lot going on over a short period of time (more likely I am just slow) so here I go again...

1.We open to Xiao Fan (Seven) speaking to Ling Er, who is especially skilled at preparing medicines. She has been putting herself in danger by searching for the right ingredients to take care of him and now is excitedly looking forward to helping Senior Qi (my apologies if I spelled that wrong)(Also, it is rather refreshing to see a female main character not in love with the male lead most of these shows feature women all in love with the same guy). Interestingly, her newfound hero worship of hero may be arousing some jealousy in Xiao who, up until now, seems to have enjoyed a special friendship with Ling Er

2.Xiao is summoned before the old married couple (shifu and lady shifu; she was lecturing him for his harsh treatment of Xiao) and is questioned about Ling Er's location. Every loyal, Xiao plays dumb. He is again yelled at for not improving in magic; Xiao's suggestion that he learn martial arts is laughed at (basically) and after Xiao Hui (the little monkey) startles his shifu he is told that if the creatures is seen again then he and Xiao Fan will be thrown out. Shifu reminds him to spend his days in the kitchen (I can't tell if he is just short tempered, impatient, or genuinely concerned for Xiao and views the kitchen as a safe place) while lady shifu looks not very pleased with her partner.

3.While kneading bread Xiao acknowledges that he is not the smartest (like Jing Yue) or the strongest (like Senior Qi). If anything, he knows his limits...(nor is he a romantic, he can't seduce LingEr, he admits)

4.While enduring Ling Er's tantrum Xiao finally sums up enough courage to tell her that he doesn't like her with Senior Qi. She snaps at him. Only afterwards does she realize the implication of his words.

--Ok I see why this is interesting. I feel like he is going to be the next user of demonic magic (not necessarily evil....)--

5.'Treasures Recognize Their Magic' (I WISH!) and so it seems that Xiao has a wand of some kind in his position that acts as a medium. Anyways, this is very convenient because in one month there is a 7 palace martial arts competition. (To be honest, I don't blame Ling Er for falling for Brother Qi that palace gets such pretty costumes and everyone seems so elegant/refined from that palace...I guess that reflects the master, while Master/Lord Tian is much more direct, short tempered, wheres his heart on his sleeve)

6.Senior Qi gives Ling Er a thank you gift in front of everyone. This makes both Tian (papa) jealous because that is his daughter and Xiao jealous because she is his first love

7.After a lot of training, the sects prepare for competition. Xiao still cannot fly by he is assisted. He also learns that you can fly into the highest palace (where the big kahuna sect leader dwells) because of an anti sword enchantment

8.Xiao Fan and Jung Yue are reminiscing when unbeknownst to everyone Xiao Fan's torch glows red, awakening the guardian dragon. Sect leader calms the dragon, the disciples leave the area, and he then investigates this mystery...

9.Xiao Wen is number 1 for the competition. That evening he is thinking about his first encounter with the immortal spirit/guardian dragon and how it also reacted. he wonders why it always does that when he is around....
