"THAT INSOLENT BRAT! LET ME STRANGLE YOU!" Elder Yi had stood up and nearly went straight down if not for the other elder stopping him with their Eon Energy.

"He's indeed a troublemaker, but I don't think he's worth your time," Elder Xin said in a soothing tone. She was clearly very patient as she only thought of Qin Zheng's action as amusing.

After all, which young man didn't have their own naughtiness?

Moreover, Qin Zheng can still be categorized as a boy since he was only 12 years old.

Qin Zheng is clearly very playful at times, but he also has the strength and power to back up his words. This was the one that made it possible for him to become this way.

Elder Qian sighed. "Qin Zheng is indeed a bit too much."

"I want to kill him." Elder Yi snorted.

Elder Cai passed a glance to Elder Yi. "See, you're also the type that can't bear any grievances. Do you really think that it's worth it to get angry over the provocation of a youth like that annoying man?"

"You're also angry!"

"I'm not!"

Elder Qian sighed when he saw the two of them began again. Ever since yesterday, he swore that these two have already debated over 10 topics. It was good that he could control his Eon Energy to block their voices, or he might not be able to stand listening to them anymore.

"We should make a request to not send these two next time."

"They're proficient in using Teleportation Array, which is why they're chosen in the first place," Elder Qian said calmly. "Besides, the overall condition in the Xian Gu Kingdom is not as peaceful as it seems on the surface. It's impossible to make the experts come out when they already have their duties."

"You're correct, Elder Qian," Elder Xin sighed. She passed a glance at the students who had started to run. "Make sure that they don't overheat in the sea of fire. We're not planning on killing them all."

"I should say that to you. You're the one who comes from Huang Mo Academy in the desert, so this should be a common occurrence for you," Elder Qian chuckled. "I would also like Elder Cai, or Elder Yi helping out, but I doubt they're going to stop their talk soon."

Elder Yi came from Shui Dao Academy, which was located in the water area, while Elder Cai came from Bing Gong Academy, which was located in the Ice Region. These two were obviously the best option if they have to save students from the fire.

"That's enough."

The young man looked at them with his dark iris and aloof expression. He had the natural disposition of a leader, emitting faint pressure even without doing anything. With his natural black hair and enchanting face, a lot of beauties would surely be entranced. In addition, he was still 15 years old, yet he was already at the peak of rank 4, nearly breaking into rank 5.

For many people, he was nothing more than a teenager. Yet, this teenager was also one of the greatest geniuses in the Xian Gu Kingdom with only a handful of people could possibly come close. Those who dared to underestimate him would die miserably.

He had both authority and power in the Xian Gu Kingdom!

"Focus on the youngsters. Don't let them die."

"Yes, Your Highness."

The four of them immediately replied in unison. Neither one of them dared to cross their path with this young man. Even though they were all stronger than him, their position was still lower than this prince. After all, he was one of the few princes who had the qualification to ascend the throne!

If he truly becomes the emperor in the future, they knew that they would be under him. Because of that, no one was willing to make him their enemies out of nowhere.

And even if he didn't become the emperor, there were many other paths available for a great genius for him. They knew that he was not someone they could possibly offend in their entire life.

Elder Xin locked his gaze towards the students. "The one at the very last, that should be the little girl with S talent, right?"

They still didn't memorize everyone's name because no one thought that it was necessary. Right now, they just marked the youngsters as they liked in their mind to scout into their academy later on.

Elder Qian nodded. "She starts quite late. I wonder what Qin Zheng said to her."

"He might just make her angry since that young man has that talent." Elder Xin chuckled, knowing full well that Qin Zheng was trying to make himself the enemy of many geniuses during this instance. "You should pay more attention to those students with strong builds. After all, Hua Shan Academy prioritizes students who have a strong body, right?"

"It doesn't mean we don't accept others," Elder Qian was amused. He turned his gaze back to the youngsters, particularly Ye Jiao. He didn't know why, but there was something in this girl that drew him in. It was as if the young girl was not as simple as she was on the surface.

However, it was nothing more than his gut feeling, so he couldn't say for sure.

While those elders were discussing among themselves, Ye Jiao was crossing the sea of fire with her Eon Energy covering her entire body. She still could feel the heat, and at the same time, her absorption seemed to increase slightly. There was no apparent change, but she could feel it in her body.

'Mother had told me that it's possible for me to have fire affinity, but it didn't seem to be the case.'

Looking at a man before her, who seemed like he was travelling dry land, Ye Jiao knew the difference was like earth and sky. Those who had fire elemental affinity would be able to pass this stage with ease because they would feel comfortable instead of pain when they touched the fire.

In her case, she still felt the unbearable heat even when she had placed the Eon Energy barrier around her.

"At the very least, the element in this place is really pure," Ye Jiao could sense brighter light around her when she focused. She knew that those were Eon Energy in their element, but she couldn't see the color. At that time, she was only able to see it thanks to the pillar. Right now, she could only rely on her senses to pull the Eon Energy into her body as the only ones that would get pulled would be those that were suitable for her.

However, she decided to not waste too much time. Even though she enjoyed the surge of Eon Energy into her body, her body was also screaming, thanks to the heat that she experienced. If she stayed here too long, she was sure that she would become a lump of fine crispy meat.

Somehow, her mind recalled her grilled meat that she ate a lot during the past month.

'I better hurry if I didn't want to be like that.'

With that in mind, Ye Jiao sped up her speed a bit. She could see that those who enjoyed the fire were jogging unhurriedly. They were all enjoying the fire around them, so they didn't wish for it to end so quickly.

"Just when will this fire end?" Lu Wan snapped when he saw Ye Jiao had caught up to him.

Ye Jiao smiled bitterly. "Just hold on. It shouldn't last that long too."

"How can I last long if all I can feel is this insane heat? Do they wish for me to die so quickly?" Lu Wan rolled his eyes in displeasure. He wished to kick whoever arranged for this examination.

He wanted to get out as quickly as possible!

"You're even more loud compared to Han Fu right now," Ye Jiao remarked.

"Don't compare me with that sissy man who seems to love talking so much," Lu Wan shuddered. Recalling Han Fu's gesture, who seemed to act like a woman, he felt nausea once again. Even though he was sure that Han Fu was a male because of how he addressed himself, he still found that man to be too feminine.

"What if he's a girl?"

"Then I'll say that he's the most tomboyish girl I have ever met," Lu Wan frowned. He wanted to add the most annoying one too, but he remembered his sister. In his heart, there wasn't anyone who was more annoying than his little sister, so he discarded those thoughts.

Ye Jiao giggled. "He's indeed noisy, but he's not too bad as a person."

"I can't believe you say that about him."

"What? That's the truth."
