Niyad yawned on his way home from the Academy. He only just found out that the academy had a point awards system. The identification medallion that Lianlian gave him actually held award points on it that he could use to buy cultivation resources. Apparently each time you go up a grade, 1000 silver points would be awarded to you. Also, for each sparring match you win at the academy you gain 10 points. When he checked earlier today he already had 1300 points. The first 100 he had gained when he first entered the academy. Another 1000 when he went to class 2 and the other 200 he gained from all his sparring matches thus far. When he found out about this he couldn't help but to curse Minki in his heart. How could he forget to mention such important information? Lianlian

  BOOM!! The door to Niyad's small cottage swung open and he hastily crawled out on all fours. Black smoke snaked out behind him, a telltale sign that he once more failed at alchemy. With a thud he flopped onto his back, greedily gasping for fresh air. "I don't get it, why can't I do it right?" He spent all night trying to concoct a stage one energy restoring pill and failed several times. Each time a different level of explosion occurred. It was now morning and he felt exhausted but classes would soon start. "What's the use of dwelling on it? I'll try again tonight, I'll definitely be able to do it right." Niyad had been wearing the weighted armor for two days

Kiro scrutinized the person in front of him, he really wanted to snap this kid's neck but after discussing with the other two kingdoms today, Niyad would be useful for their future plans. "You're so calm, what's the matter? Are you feeling remorse towards Blenheim for killing mortals in cold blood?" When Niyad said this he used his cultivation base to boost the sound of his voice. Everyone in and around the kingdom could hear him. Cultivators of all realms were either running away from the area of chaos or running towards it to see what was happening but everyone was paying attention. You could see a few of them wearing puzzled expressions. Pretty soon the entire area was surrounded by soldiers. "You bastard, you're actually from the Blenheim kingdom!" A red haired boy yelled at him from the ground. The boy wore

Wind blades shot towards the man and he blocked them using water elemental energy. A water whip materialized in his hand and he swung it towards Niyad's neck. Niyad hopped backwards, blocking the whip with his sword. He was finding it difficult to hold Lianlian while fighting. His movements were less agile and using only one arm was making him clumsy. He suddenly thought to himself. Count had said this would be a difficult test but he didn't give any rules now did he? After coming to this conclusion Niyad turned and ran away as fast as he could. The cultivator watched Niyad turn tail and flee, he was caught off guard. "You coward, you were so cocky a few hours ago, why don'

Niyad was about to enter the Dark Forest. There was a noticeable difference between the two. The Qi in the Dark forest was much thicker and the roars of Qi and demonic beasts occasionally spilled out. He also sensed an eerie energy that made his hair stand on end. Beasts mostly avoided leaving the Dark Forest to avoid humans. Similarly Humans wouldn't randomly wander into the Dark forest unless they were planning to hunt in large groups. Even entering with large groups would be dangerous, accidentally wandering into the territory of strong demonic or Qi beasts could mean instant death. Beasts were territorial creatures and would kill once you entered their domain. The strength of beasts beasts are scaled similarly to those of humans  Niyad braced himself then he
