All the students and teachers of the various Universities had arrived at their destination of 'Cursed Continent'.
As the name suggests, the continent looks very gloomy. There were only trees surrounding that continent.
The continent was also commonly referred to as the Cursed Forest.
A gripping aura surrounded that Continent.
Luckily each layer of the Forest contained a certain Demon Beast.
Like the first layer, it only contained the first or weakest level Demon Beasts, as well as so on.
Each layer of the Forest also has its own leader.
Every disciple had lined up on his group. In that line of disciples, there were also some seniors.
It could be said that they were the strongest seniors in his college.
Their job was to look after their juniors who were about to enter this Cursed Forest.
"Consideration!"
Said an old man who was one of the teachers of the Bright Sky College.
The aura released was quite impressive.
Although he was not very loud in his voice, it was more than enough for everyone to hear.
...This was the first training in history, it took a lot of consideration from various parties to agree to this....
...So for all the students who will do this training, try not to split from the group so that there are no casualties, other than that none of you should enter the 3rd layer....
...This is no ordinary battle....
...Where will you compete to collect the Spirit Core of a Demon Beast....
...The group that obtained the most Spirit Core would be rewarded with a Third Class Weapon, several Breakthrough Pills and an Intermediate Level Technique book....
...This training will be held for 7 days....
Finished explaining this, the line became boisterous.
"It is not explained about the rules, does not this mean that the battle between universities cannot be avoided". Said one of the disciples from the White Lotus College.
"It seems so". The other student.
"Hey, aren't they going to take advantage of this?"
"Hohoho.. Princess Min Yue, isn't this your chance?" Lan Li said slowly.
Princess Min Yue just smiled wilyly.
"of course". Said definitely.
Lan Li was the best friend of Princess Min Yue, she was the Second Princess of the Lan Nobles Family.
The Lan Nobles Family itself was a family that treaded the path of trade.
Their business was the largest business in the Western Continent, it made the Lan Family one of the 5 Great Families in the Western Continent.
Lan Li had the same traits as Princess Min Yue. That's why they're good friends.
..
Each school sent over 20 of its students.
Because of this, the students are divided into small groups of 5 to 6 people and accompanied by one senior in each group.
Princess Feng Mei was a group with Li Wei who was her close friend.
Princess Min Yue was very happy even though she parted ways with her friend but the senior accompanying them was Dong Fang.
Thiei Nue was placed in the same group as Crown Princess Zhong Ming Xie.
While Prince Dong Ling, First Prince Zhong Fan, Second Prince Zhong Kei, Crown Prince Xi Ming and Prince Xi Que, they are placed in each group at their respective colleges.
The groups began their separate ways into the Cursed Forest.

On the other hand
"Your Majesty".
"Hm".
"The plan has gone well".
"That's good, what about the sword?"
"His sword is well guarded, Your Majesty".
"Okay, Your Majesty".
"Go back and continue the other plan and do not let your guard down".
"Okay, Your Honor, I'm resigning".

Zora, Hongling and Xiao Dai were now at the Imperial Port after escorting Jia Li to his residence.
The surprising thing for them was that Jia Li came from the Wen Family which was one of the 4 Noble Families in the Thiei Empire.
Even though he was only the son of a Mistress, he still had the blood of a Family Head.
Before they left, Zora gave a few Persolen Bottles to Jia Li.
"Hey..". Say hello to a girl, making Zora and Hongling divert their attention.
Zora just stared at the girl quietly, there was no light of hatred or coldness.
Not with Hongling and Xiao Dai staring at the girl's disdain.
They restored their respective attenuation after seeing the girl greeting them.
"I'm Wen Xia". Said the girl, she did not care about the look of disdain from Hongling and Xiao Dai, she knew that she had indeed made a mistake.
"Where are you going". Say again.
Zora simply sighed, "Middle Continent".
"Emm, can I come?" Wen Xia asked carefully.
"Huh...?" Zora and Hongling were quite stunned to hear what Wen Xia said.
They shifted his attention back and looked at him closely, "We're not that familiar". Zora reminded.
"I know, I'm sorry about yesterday". Said Wen Xia with his head lowered.
Wen Xia completely swallowed his embarrassment just in this case, it seemed like his mind was starting to open up.
Zora then diverted attention like she was looking for something, "You're running away from your residence?" Ask Zora.
"Emm. that's.I.I've asked my father for permission". Wen Xia replied while scratching his non-itchy nape.
Zora stared intently at herself as well as Hongling 'really reckless'.
"Go back". Zora said diverting her attention from Wen Xia.
"Yes.."
"We'll be waiting for you at the diner over there, I don't want your father to worry about you". Zora's words cut through Wen Xia's words.
"really?" Wen Xia asked with sparkling eyes.
Zora simply nodded in response to his question.
"Well, I'll be right back, wait for me". Said Wen Xia then left quickly from before them.
"You sure?" Ask Hongling to Zora.
"Yes.she's a good girl, she's also very young her mind is also very impressionable". Zora said calmly.
Hongling nodded his head understandingly.
"Well, you go first to the House of Dining, I will follow after getting a rented ship". Hongling.

"Be careful, even though this is only the first layer of this Forest, it does not rule out the possibility of danger waiting for us". Said Haocun who was the senior companion of Feng Mei's group.
Feng Mei and the others responded to Senior Haocun's remarks with a nod of their heads.
Even though they were from the North Star Peguruan who were said to be the lowest did not mean that their strength was weak.
"Senior Hao, looks like we're going to have a guest". Said Feng Mei.
His senses were quite sharp, moreover he had a Plant Element.
You could say the Forest is the most suitable place for him to train or fight.
Hearing Feng Mei's remark, Haocun couldn't help but believe her.
This was the umpteenth time they were in the same group.
Feng Mei's performance could not be underestimated.
"Friends, everyone, prepare yourself to fight". Haocun said then flew up the tree leaving the others behind.
