The Earth snake could not avoid the assault since Sara's snake was keeping it still and was hit by the river of flying slashes.Wounds appeared on its body as it hissed in pain, meanwhile, the rank 2 snakes left behind in its retreat had reached them and were jumping on the two enemies.Sara once again absorbed the companion and launched it at the pack while he jumped at the rank 3 beast.The blood companion thrashed out its body on the tens of rank 2 beasts and madly attacked without caring for the injuries it was experiencing.Every time its body was bitten or hit, some of Sara's bloodline energy would be expended to heal it.In the few minutes since the battle had begun, Sara had become weak as she now had to expend more energy.While the blood companion was keeping the pack away, Sara engaged in a solitary fight with the rank 3 snake assaulting it relentlessly.She managed to heavily injure the beast in the initial clashes and was pressing in her attacks to slowly drain away the s

Assea moved at full speed alongside the wall.Sara inside it was only looking at the path in front of him, nothing else was worth his attention.Some of the snakes in the pack started to hiss in his direction as if it was some kind of entertainment.Then, when he had crossed a bit less than fifty meters, the first blow arrived.What Sara initially felt was an incredible pressure that flung her into the wall.Then, the pain came.Assea's body was the first line of defense and was shredded into pieces almost immediately!Sara forced its body to reconstruct but it only delayed the impact on his body for a moment as Assea was wrecked again in just an instant.She slammed into the wall and many cuts appeared on her skin but, before she suffered any serious injury, she summoned Assea a third time to endure the rest of the attack.Its body was destroyed till only a silhouette remained but the first blow was successfully blocked!A huge amount of mental energy was expended because Sara had to

The Vice sect-master wasn't considering on the issue, he felt that this wouldn't be posing a problem for his able disciple. He thought about the one month of hellish torture that Aldophus and been through, all day with no plans of resting as, he had been infusing Aldophus's seven Meridians with his lightening.The Vice sect-master shuddered as he remembered the crazed look in his disciples eyes. "One whole month of such torture and the foolish kids thinking of getting more power, I have to train this one carefully as I don't even know how he'll end up".Hmm!!!"I wonder how the others are faring. With Old Lady Chen's previous behavior I'm guessing her new disciple is probably in hell right now".Pheww!!!The Vice sect-master exhaled and began to walk towards his private chambers with a pensive look on his face.........Roarr!!!!"Not enough, move faster"Argh!' I'm moving as fast as I can'"You're not as fast as you think"Hmm!!!A bout' of words were being exchanged by the ma

Arhh!!!They clashed and the whole barrier trembled, the Sect Master struck down dispelling the force of their attacks.After that had been done everything returned back to normal... This battle would be continued on a later.Lady Chen began to explain the rules of the sect to all the young intakes."You will also be examined every year in those courses and, if the results won't be satisfying, you will be requested to abandon that subject. You will still be able to attend it but it will cost you some Credits."Lady Chen stopped speaking for a moment before resuming in her explanation."You must also complete a mission for the Sect every two months. There is a large board on the right side of the river where you can find all the tasks that you can complete. Being successful in a mission will grant you merit points that you can exchange for techniques, materials, or weapons. These services will be open for you after you undergo the test of your nature.""Lastly, any Elder can choose a

More lessons followed in the next days.There was the alchemy course held by Wanda Hamman, the real battle course held by Bruce Nairti, and then courses about the general history of cultivators and magical beasts.Sara was happy to discover that her chances of becoming an alchemist weren't that bad.She had a strong mind and a good attitude at repetitive works, the only problem was her cold nature that contrasted with the warmth needed to take care of useful plants.However, during Bruce's lesson, she shined like no one else."It's a pity that I already have a student as a disciple and he requires all my attention. Otherwise, I could have become your master right away."Those were Bruce's words after Sara didn't lose any one versus one fight in his class.'His student is called Daniel and it seems that he is some sort of celebrity around here. Apparently, he had the previous record of the hunting tests but I broke it. I've probably made an enemy out of him already if he is like the ot
