Ariel was still facing the direction she believed the elf kingdom was supposed to be before saying to herself. "Elena has ascended." And her words surprised Karen.
"What? Elena has ascended?"
"Yes, she has. Those sisters are growing stronger by the day. First, it was Evelyn, and now Elena is in the sa rank as . Why are those two getting stronger faster than the rest of us?" Ariel asked but found it strange when she only heard silence in response to her question.
Ariel was expecting Karen to say sothing, but Karen remained quiet. Ariel wondered why she suddenly stopped talking, so she turned around to take a look at her.
Once she turned around, Ariel noticed that Karen's mind had drifted far away from where they were.
Before today, Elena and Karen had always been a rank below the Apex Mages, but now, her friend had ascended before her.

Karen was actually happy to hear that her friend had beco an Apex Knight because it showed how hard Elena had been working over the past few years, but Karen couldn't help but be surprised by the news.
She couldn't wait to see her friend and congratulate her, but she also knew that she had to work even harder to catch up to Elena.
She clenched her fists as a look of determination shone on her face.
Of course, Ariel noticed this, and a smile appeared on her face. She was glad to see that Karen still had a strong desire to rank higher because she felt the sa way as well.
Just like Karen, Ariel couldn't wait to work harder and rank as high as Evelyn, so that the two of them would be within the ranks of true gods. Although, that would have to be at a later ti.
Right now, she had to leave her kingdom to pay a visit to Evelyn, then, they would head over to the academy together.
"Alright, Karen, let's get moving," Ariel gently patted Karen on the back and Karen nodded her head in understanding. However, while trailing behind her, she suddenly recalled sothing so she called out to Ariel.
"Your Majesty, we are yet to–" Karen had just been about to inform Ariel not to forget about informing her grandfather about their departure, but Ariel interrupted her while she was still talking.
Since they were about to leave the kingdom, it made sense for them to inform Ariel's grandfather about this, but Ariel had done that already, so she assured Karen that she had taken care of it.
"Don't worry about it, Karen. I've talked to that old fish and he agreed to take care of things in the kingdom until I return."
Ariel's grandfather had easily agreed to what his granddaughter wanted because of the changes he had noticed in her recently. He was proud to see Ariel embracing her role as queen and being eager to carry out her duties as well.
He knew that it hadn't been easy for her to change, but he was really happy with the decision she made.
He also hoped that she could use this period to rest a bit while she stayed at the academy.
And so, with that out of the way, Ariel and Karen left the rfolk kingdom to et up with Evelyn and Elena in the Elf kingdom.
But while the ladies reunited with each other after so long, a beastman could be seen looking completely exhausted as he walked into his office and slumped into his chair.
His na was Diego and he happened to be the guild master of the Beast Taming Guild.
He had orange-colored hair, tiger ears, a tail, and the appearance of a human in his mid-forties.
"Ugh, I'm so tired," Diego groaned while resting his back on his chair. Then, he rang a small bell on his desk.
'I really need to take a nap, or else I won't be able to make it in ti for the tournant tomorrow morning,' He uttered in his thoughts.
'It's been a long day and I've been working with the deputy headmistress of the academy while making presentations for the tournant. I never expected that I would be returning back this late in the night,' Diego released a sigh before hearing a knock on his door.
"Sire, you called?" A beautiful young lady's voice erged from outside his office. She had white colored hair that reached the small of her back, along with tiger ears and a tail.
She also happened to be the guild master's secretary.
"Yes. Co in, Aria," Diego answered. "There's sothing I want you to do for ," He gave her a sheet of paper which had a list of the things he wanted her to do.
Aria looked at the things listed on the sheet of paper and her eyes widened in surprise. "Are these–"
"Yes, they're the nas of the beasts the academy will need for the upcoming tournant."
"But so of the nas on the list are transcendent beasts, does the academy expect the students to ta these beasts?"
"That's sothing we'll have to find out tomorrow. For now, I need you to focus on your task," Diego instructed and his secretary nodded before leaving his office.
The mont his secretary stepped out of his office, Diego sighed once again and leaned back into his chair.
He understood why his secretary was worried about the students, and he felt the sa way as well but he chose to believe in what Lucille had told him during the day.
Lucille believed that the students would be able to impress everyone tomorrow and Diego hoped this would be the case as well because if everything went according to plan, then there was a really high chance that the beast taming guild would have hundreds or possibly thousands of people from different kingdoms eager to register at the guild.
It was very rare to see a beast tar from any of the seven kingdoms in the mortal realm, but if the tournant turned out to be a success, then it would allow everyone in the mortal realm to know just how fun and exciting it was to ta beasts.
With nothing else to do, Diego decided to call it a night.
Tomorrow was going to be a busy day for him, because just like the dragon King, he was going to be an important tournant official for the beast taming tournant, so he needed a lot of rest before he could head over to the academy.
And this was how the preparations for the upcoming tournant finally ca to an end.
Hours passed and Orion could be seen levitating above the ground. He was sitting cross-legged while ditating and a myriad of colorful mana particles circled around like a tornado.
A wild gust of wind swirled around him as he to tried to find a breakthrough in his ditation.
Orion was currently in his private training ground and he had been ditating here for days. The training ground was made available to him and his attendant alone.
Every other top ten students had a private training ground of their own, just like Orion but Adrian, Aslan and Arthur preferred to train together in the training ground made available for everyone in Stella Hall.
Orion's personal training ground wasn't as big as the one he used when sparring against Aslan and the others but it was still big enough for him to do whatever he wanted to do in it.
The training ground had a spot where he could ditate peacefully, and this was where Orion was currently ditating.
The mana particles around him continued to swirl rapidly until it began to reach an equilibrium.
The mont it reached an equilibrium, the mana particles dispersed into the surroundings and Orion slowly stopped levitating.
He had successfully ranked higher just in ti before the tournant began.
With a satisfied look on his face, Orion, swiftly teleported himself to his bathroom to have a bath.
He didn't use more than ten minutes in the bathroom before stepping out to have a change of clothes.
While he was getting dressed, Orion heard the door of his bedroom creaking open, then he turned around to see Mia walking into the room.
Mia swiftly teleported to his side before kissing him on the cheek. "Good morning, babe,"
"Good morning, gorgeous,"
"You've ranked higher?" Mia asked while she sat down on a couch.
"Yes,"
"Congratulations babe,"
"Thanks, but what of Dahlia, has she ranked up as well?"
"Yes, she has. Now the three of us are transcendent beings,"
"Hm,mm" Orion nodded his head in agreent, then he noticed Mia checking sothing out on her smart bracelet.
Just like every other students in the academy, Mia and Dahlia had been given a smart bracelet to call theirs, but they weren't the only ones who could now use these devices.
The smart bracelets was now available to everyone across the seven kingdoms in the mortal realm and all they had to do to get it was to buy it from their nearest witch store.
