The journey on the flying ship lasted for half a day. That ship's speed was quite good so the Emerald Palace sect's disciples were able to reach the destination very quickly.

But after getting out of the flying ship, they all found that a sizable group of people were already waiting at the spot where the trial ground was supposed to be.

The group of people waiting here were from one of the strongest powers of the Tang nation. They were all part of the Sky Parade Academy which had the support of the royal family and was the number one place where every young boy wanted to go.

As the sect master of Emerald Palace was a good friend of the current ruler of the Tang nation, the relation between the Sky Parade Academy and the sect was not bad. But as Emerald Palace was a medium sized sect and was relatively new, everyone from the prestigious Sky Parade Academy did not feel much respect toward it and it was evident in their behaviour.

The old elder, whose name was Gao Heyan went to the Sky Parade Academy's camp to greet the person in charge and came back with an enraged black face. The person in charge sent him back from the door by giving the excuse that he was busy cultivating. They did not take the Emerald Palace seriously at all and that enraged elder Gao.

Other elders tried their best to pacify elder Gao's rage. One of the elders who had a good friend in the Sky Parade Academy took the responsibility to get some information from that friend. Everyone knew that they were no where near strong enough to flare up against a prominent force like the Sky Parade Academy, so they silently held back their anger.

...

The trial ground was going to open after two more days, so the group of Emerald Palace used tents and other such items to create a temporary residence close to the trial ground. But the best location had already been taken in by the Sky Parade Academy, so they could only choose the second best area.

After the elder who had a good friend in the Sky Parade Academy asked his friend, he got the information that the Sky Parade Academy got the information about this trial ground from a book.

One of their researchers was able to give an approximate location of the trial ground and more teachers came to search that location. This place was very well hidden and the only reason the disciple from the Emerald Palace was able to find it was because as the trial ground was going to open very soon, it was releasing a special aura. That aura also allowed the Sky Parade Academy to find the proper location of the trial ground.

At first the disciples of the Emerald Palace had thought that they were the only ones who knew about this location. Now that they had to share their prize with more people, they were very upset.

But the same was true for the students of the Sky Parade Academy. One of their genius researchers was able to find this trial ground after a lot of hard work and the students were very confident to gain a lot from this place. But now suddenly they found themselves with competitors. It was a very annoying feeling.

Quite a few members of the Sky Parade Academy were asking the in charge to chase the Emerald Palace away by using force. But as the sect master of the Emerald Palace was quite an influential person, he was unwilling to offend him without any great interest.

But even though the in charge had not agreed to fight against the Emerald Palace head on that did not mean that they were not going to fight in the dark. Many students and teachers of the Sky Parade Academy secretly created troubles for the Emerald Palace and laughed at them behind their backs.

The Emerald Palace had its own problem to take care of and that was their young sect master. He had never been humiliated like this by anyone so he was very dissatisfied with the Sky Parade Academy and tried to pick a fight with them every moment. All the elders were having a hard time stopping him and they were also losing their own patience.

...

Fortunately, the elders were able to hold on for two days and soon it was time for the trial ground to open. For the last two days, Elena had spent most of her time inside their team's tent.

She had interesting conversations with all the girls and they played many games in the last two days. Their relationship that was somewhat stiff as they had not known each other for long, had turned very smooth and they all had become as close as real sisters.

So, for that reason Elena did not come across much bullying from the Sky Parade Academy but she had already heard many complaints about them from other disciples. Elena's expression of the Sky Parade Academy was quite good as when she saw them in that dungeon expedition, she found them to be sensible, obedient and calm. In her opinion they all were excellent students.

Now from the general behaviour of the Sky Parade Academy's students, they did not look like excellent students at all. It might be that the students who went to the Riplanica were all the most excellent ones and other students were not very well behaved. That was a bit disappointing but it was a very normal thing so Elena did not think about it much.

Actually, if it was a low rank sect present in this place instead of Sky Parade Academy, the disciples of the Emerald Palace would probably behave in the same way or probably in an even worse way. So they did have a reason to be angry but what the Sky Parade Academy did was not uncommon at all.

Now that did not need to think about this matter anymore as they were going to soon enter the trail ground. But again both of the organisations once more fell into a conflict with who would be able to enter the trial ground first.

This time Emerald Palace did not back down. They had been enduring their rage for a long time, so they were unwilling to give up their claim to enter the trial ground first. And after some intense negotiations, both of the places decided to enter the trial ground at the same time.

...

The first team that was going to enter the trial ground was normally going to be Elena's team as they had the person who was able to find this place. But as the young sect master was present here, the team he suddenly created in the past two days was given the privilege to enter first.

Elena team members were not happy about it but they could not complain as the young sect master had the highest authority here. So they a bit begrudgingly decided to accept the proposal to be the second team to enter and even had to act that they were happy about this development.

But obviously not everyone was happy to go on with the young sect masters whims. Elena herself did not have any response and especially Lin Guangxuan looked at the young sect master like he was a disgusting insect.

Obviously young master Kuang was not very happy about that so he started to scold all the girls of Elena's team and tried to discipline them. But at that moment, the strongest member of Elena's team and also the person who actually found the trial ground, Luo Xing finally lost her patience and beat Kuang Zenshi up.

Although Kuang Zenshi was quite strong himself, he was no match for Luo Xing who was stronger than even some of the elders. So very soon he was beaten black and blue and was taken away by an elder when she fainted after enduring an insane beating.

No elder tried to say anything to Luo Xing, not even Gao Heyan as he was scared of elder Cao Ruyan. And the young sect master was at fault anyway so it was fine for him to get beaten up a bit. It might just improve his temperament.

...

Soon the first batch disciples from the both batch entered the trial ground. They had to stand on an ancient formation according to their power level and then they would be transferred to the main trial ground through this teleportation formation.

At a time, a total of 16 people could enter the trial ground. So both of the sides send one team consisting of eight members to the teleportation formation. After the activation of the formation, one needed to wait for 15 minutes for the formation to recover before sending the next team in.

Soon it was finally Elena team's chance to enter the trial ground. As their team only had 7 members one of the elders decided to enter the trial ground alongside them. As a trial ground left behind by a demigod rank powerhouse, even the elders could gain a lot from this place.

So when all of them had taken their proper position in the formation according to their power level, they all disappeared in a flash of brilliant white light.
