Chapter 587: Chapter 79: Legendary Arena
"As for the two of you, leave the Mainland Magic Elite Camp now," the Great Elder’s gaze shifted to Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling.
"Ah! This is unfair, why are we being driven out!" Donghuang Lingling beca anxious.
"Lingling, listen to what the Great Elder has to say next," Yun Sheng pulled on Donghuang Lingling’s arm.
"Hehe, you two little girls aren’t being chased away. You are to follow this elder, along with a group of trainees seeking a breakthrough, to the Sky Wings Arena," the Second Elder chuckled on the side.
Every year in the Mainland Magic Elite Camp, so trainees are close to making breakthroughs, especially from Holy Mage to Sky Mage - this rank is the hardest to advance through.
Ordinary magic cultivation and ditation might not even result in a breakthrough after several months or even years.
Therefore, to help trainees overco this threshold, the Magic Elite Camp ca up with special thods.
Firstly, it involves allowing trainees to enter the middle circle of the Dutian Beast Blood Realm and fight with Commander-level Blood Cloud Beasts to seek a breakthrough.
However, this thod carries a high risk; over the years, many trainees have lost their lives in the Dutian Beast Blood Realm.
Therefore, unless absolutely necessary, most ntors are reluctant to resort to this thod for their trainees.
If the first thod is not viable, there’s a second, safer and more reliable thod, which is to go to the continent’s number one arena, known as the Sky City, the Sky Wings Arena, to participate in competitive fighting.
Although fighting is also dangerous, the fatality rate is much lower compared to the Beast Blood Realm.
Furthermore, fighting in the arena can earn extra competition points and secure high rewards or even the glory of the Fighting King, which is why most trainees prefer the latter thod.
The only thing is, the opportunity to go to the Sky Wings Arena is not always available.
It might only happen once every few years. This year, seeing a group of Holy Mages on the verge of a breakthrough, the Second Elder proposed taking a group of outstanding trainees to Sky Wing City for a year of training.
However, what troubled the Second Elder was that the Mage most skilled at healing, Guangxi who practices Light Magic, happened to be away, and he only found Gao Ming, one of Guangxi’s trainees.
Gao Ming, while talented, was after all lacking in experience, so the Second Elder was quite troubled, hoping to find another Mage skilled in healing.
It was quite serendipitous that right at this ti, Yun Sheng appeared.
Not only is she adept at refining Magic Potions, but she also excels at high-level Water Healing and Essence Magic.
This made the Second Elder ecstatic, as this was the perfect candidate for the team’s Healing Mage!
The Great Elder had also thought of this, which is why he proposed, under the guise of punishnt, that Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling join Second Elder’s advanced team on the excursion.
"Second Elder, although the punishnt seems a bit lengthy, spanning one year, Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling are only Magic Masters. They have not systematically studied Dark Magic yet. If they go to the Sky Wings Arena, I’m afraid that..." the Dark Gold Master expressed so concerns.
The words of the Dark Gold Master were grating to the ears of the other ntors.
"Haha, you don’t have to worry about that. I won’t really let your precious trainees enter the competition; their strength is not nearly enough. Sending them to battle would be sending them to their deaths. Their main role is to take care of the older trainees who are competing, simply being backups," the Second Elder replied heartily, waving his hand dismissively.
These words from the Second Elder dispelled the last trace of doubt in the Dark Gold Master’s mind.
The other dozen or so instructors grumbled in their hearts, scoffing that this hardly counted as punishnt.
Being part of the team going to the Sky Wings Arena not only broadened one’s horizons but was also beneficial for future breakthroughs. Generally, new students had no qualification to participate at all; calling it a punishnt was more like giving a reward.
The Great Elder and the Second Elder were clearly playing favorites!
Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling were still unaware that they had stumbled into a blessing in disguise, having received a cushy job that others would envy.
All they knew was that they didn’t have to leave the Mainland Magic Elite Camp, and they could also go to the Sky Wings Arena, which swept away the worries in their hearts, bringing smiles to their faces.
The journey to the Sky Wings Arena was long, and after confirming their departure, Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling left early under the lead of the Dark Gold Master.
After Yun Sheng and the others had left, the several elders did not disperse imdiately.
"Won’t this arrangent cause any trouble? Are you sure you don’t need
to accompany you?" the Third Elder asked with a face full of concern.
"What trouble could there be? The trainees we’ve selected this ti who are close to breakthroughs, each one has strong power. Even at the Sky Wings Arena, they won’t be much inferior," the Second Elder said unconcernedly, "Besides, we have participated in so many competitions in past years without issues."
"In previous years he was there, but this year it’s just the trainees. I always feel uneasy. Maybe we should wait a little longer until Xiguang returns, then head out," the Third Elder shook his head.
"No way," the Second Elder firmly rejected, "I’ve received news that the Martial Artist Elite Camp has already selected a dozen or so trainees to participate in the competition. If their trainees achieve breakthroughs earlier than ours, we won’t be able to hold our heads high in the upcoming Blood Refining competition."
Inside the Mainland Elite Camp, there’s both a Martial Artist Elite Camp and a Magic Elite Camp. Although both sides are part of the Elite Camp, they can’t help but compete with each other privately.
The Elder Council on both sides also privately compares the number of Sky Mages and Martial Saints added each year.
The number of Sky Mages and Martial Saints is the actual backbone of the two camps. Mages and Martial Artists at this level kill the most demon beasts in the Dutian Beast Blood Realm, and they are the ones with the greatest hope of entering the middle hunting grounds to hunt down Commander-level Demon Beasts.
"Third Elder, you needn’t worry. There shouldn’t be any major problems. Second, rember that this ti, we can’t lose to those old fellows from the Martial Artist Elite Camp. I still care about our reputation, even if you don’t," the Great Elder looked in good spirits, pointing to a Mage proficient in Elf Magic. "We must make those from the Martial Artist Elite Camp green with envy."
"Don’t worry, boss. I’ve already spoken to the trainees who are advancing: whether it’s in the individual or team competitions, they have to fight hard. If they succeed, our Mainland Magic Elite Camp could even bring back the title of Fighting King," the Second Elder laughed heartily.
The trainees this ti were all excellent, and the Second Elder believed that they would definitely achieve good results.
"By the way, since we’re going to Sky Wing City, let’s also investigate the Forbidden dicine. If there’s a chance, it’s best to bring a bottle back," the Third Elder had already inquired of the female Mage who bought the Forbidden dicine.
But after she had taken the Forbidden dicine, she threw the bottle into the lake; she only knew that her brother had bought the potion in Sky Wing City. As for who had made it, she honestly had no clue.
Having settled on the plan, the elders agreed to depart for Sky Wing City imdiately.
