Just as Lin Bai was about to rush back to the alternate-heaven blessed land to cultivate, the academy sent someone to send him a message. It was the Dean who wanted to see him.
“Why are you looking for me at this time?”
When Lin Bai rushed over, he was surprised to find that Chen Wu and Luo Qin were also inside. Chen Wu blinked her eyes. Her previous demeanor was cold and aloof. She was like an ice-cold beauty. At this moment, she appeared lively and charming.
Although Luo Qin didn’t say anything, he nodded at Lin Bai.
“Cough –“the Dean cleared his throat and said, “I’ve gathered the three of you here today because I have an important mission for you.”
It turned out that the four major academies in the city wanted to send their outstanding disciples to participate in the secret realm training. Speaking of these major academies, everyone had long heard of their names.
The four major academies were respectively the Sword Cultivation Academy, the Talisman Cultivation Academy, the Beast Tamer Academy, and The Body Cultivation Academy. Their names were named after the main fighting style of the current awakened ones. They all had long histories and were well-established.
At the same time, most of the students in the academy practiced this style. Although there were also students who practiced other styles, that number was very small. Because they specialized in this style, the students who trained in these academies were all extremely outstanding.
Lin Bai’s school was only the fifth high school that was not ranked in the rankings, so it only received two spots. The higher-ups of the school had already discussed that these two spots would be given to Luo Qin and Chen Wu respectively.
However, a dark horse like Lin Bai had suddenly appeared. His performance was outstanding, so the school had strongly suggested to allow him to go.

After listening to the Dean’s explanation, the three of them finally understood what was going on.
“I hope you can cherish this opportunity. After all, it’s rare to be with the people from the four major academies.”
Chen Wu asked, “Then which secret realm will we go to this time?”
“The Mystic Essence Secret Realm.”
The Mystic Essence Secret Realm was the place where the great grandmaster of sword cultivation was born after he died from his tribulation. Although the great grandmaster of sword cultivation failed to pass the tribulation, the spiritual energy in his body dispersed and nourished the land. Over time, the secret realm was formed.
There were treasures and demonic beasts. It could be said that dangers and opportunities coexisted.
Lin Bai naturally did not have any objections. After all, he had to search for medicinal herbs and magic cores. It was the same no matter where he went. Moreover, there were more resources in the mystic realm.
As for Chen Wu and Luo Qin, they were even more willing to agree. They also wanted to take this opportunity to train themselves.

“You guys go back and pack up. We will be setting off in a few days. Gather at the entrance of the Mystic Essence Secret Realm. There will be a special teacher to bring you in.”
The Dean gave a few more instructions before letting them leave. After the three of them left the academy, they returned home.
A few days later, at the entrance of the Mystic Essence Secret Realm.
By the time Lin Bai rushed over, there were already quite a number of people there. Some of them knew each other and greeted each other. The gathering was quite lively, but the people from the four great academies had yet to arrive.
Chen Wu looked at Lin Bai’s figure and waved at him. “Here.”
After the three of them successfully met up, Luo Qin couldn’t help but say, “It seems that there are quite a lot of people on this trip to the secret realm.”
Every year, such activities were led by the four major academies, and this year was no exception. However, this time, they made an exception to let the other academies participate, so Luo Qin and Chen Wu felt that it was quite new.
Just as everyone was talking, they heard a “Da da” sound. It seemed that some creature was rushing over here, and even the ground was trembling slightly.
“It seems that some creature is coming over.”
“It can’t be a Demon Beast, right?”
Everyone guessed. They saw several creatures suddenly jump out from the bushes that were half the height of a person. The ground immediately splashed with dust, choking the other students and causing them to cough non-stop.
If they had not retreated in time, they would have been stepped on.
Someone cried out in surprise, “It’s a three-star Zephyr!”
The sharp horns on the horse’s forehead flickered with a cold light. At the same time, it snorted. The person sitting on the horse’s back surveyed the area from above with an extremely arrogant expression.
The Zephyr was extremely fast and it could travel thousands of miles in a day. At the same time, it did not lack attack power, so it was quite popular. However, there were not many of them. An ordinary person would only be able to see a few of them.
Now, there were a total of ten of them.
The group of people wore blue clothes. The upper left corner of their clothes wore a badge of the same color. There was a vivid beast pattern engraved on it, and they looked very majestic.
The ten people on the horses got off and found a place for themselves. There were already people in those places, but they had been driven away by them.
The other academies had the principle that it was better to leave things as they were, so they could only swallow their anger and leave.
Someone couldn’t stand their behavior and couldn’t help but say, “Aren’t these people a little too arrogant? This isn’t their territory.”
However, he was quickly stopped by his companion beside him. “They are people from the Beast Tamer Academy. Keep your voice down. We can’t afford to offend them.”
The moment he finished speaking, a huge magic array suddenly appeared in the air. A fierce saber-toothed tiger actually pounced on the person who had spoken just now.
The incident happened so suddenly that no one was on guard.
Fortunately, the fierce tiger didn’t hurt anyone. It only bared its teeth and spat out stinky saliva. Even so, the two people were still badly frightened. The people from the Beast Tamer Academy immediately burst into laughter.
“With just this bit of strength, they dare to frame us behind our backs. Won’t they be scared out of their wits when we enter the Secret Realm?”
With the previous experience, everyone kept quiet. No one dared to speak again.
Lin Bai couldn’t help but frown. “They just casually said a few words, and this group of people is already acting like this. Their actions are a little too overbearing.”

Fortunately, they were standing quite far away, so the people from the Beast Tamer Academy didn’t hear what they said.
Chen Wu wasn’t surprised. After all, the people from the four great factions were also like this. Those with great strength would naturally walk unhindered, wanting that everyone would give way for him.
“After all, their strength are displayed here. They have the capital to be so strong.”
The group of people were all Xiantian, especially the leading student. His aura was steady, and as he walked, he gave off an indistinct pressure. He might have already reached Xiantian level five.
One had to know that in their academy, only Lin Bai, Chen Wu, and Luo Qin had broken through to the Xiantian state, and all of them had just broken through not too long ago.

The Xiantian state, which was originally rare in the outside world, could actually be seen everywhere here like cabbages. How could Luo Qin not be deeply shocked.
He couldn’t help but exclaim, “As expected, there is always someone better than you. Before this, I thought that I was strong enough, but I didn’t expect that I was just a frog at the bottom of a well.”

Luo Qin was known as a heaven’s favorite in the Fifth High School, but he suddenly came into contact with another level. Only then did he realize how big the difference was.. His expression was listless, like a frosted eggplant.
