Five days passed quickly.

It was the day of the competition.

A large arena was constructed in the middle of the courtyard for the competition. It was large enough to fit around thousand people.

The environment was lively. Everyone was waiting for the competition to start.

Suddenly, a dazzling boat appeared in the sky.

Everyone looked up.

The boat was shaped like a normal boat. But, it was floating in the air instead of water. It was made from gold and was imbued with runes. So, it was giving off a majestic aura.

It slowly landed near the venue.

A middle-aged cultivator flew out of the boat.

"Greeting fellow Instructor Wang Ru. Welcome to the academy"

"Greetings Instructor Bai Hua."

"You spent a lot on hosting the competition this time, didn't you?" Wang Ru praised the academy.

"However, we will be the champions as always." There was pride and arrogance in his tone.

Bai Hua's mouth twitched. But, they were the host of the competition. So, he politely guided Wang Ru and his disciples to their seatings.

"Let's see if you can remain arrogant forever meadow academy." Bai Hua murmured.

This text was taken from Royal Road. Help the author by reading the original version there.

A few hours later another commotion occurred.

There was a flying platform above the academy.

The platform had a rhombus shape. The platform was all white. However, its edges were engraved in runes and were giving off a blue aura.

Soon, it landed near the venue.

"Here comes another show-off."

Bai Hua hurriedly went to welcome the newcomers.

"Greetings, Instructor Zao Chen. Welcome to the academy." Bai Hua greeted the newcomer.

Zoa Chen replied, "Bai Hua, there is no need to use formalities between us. We are close friends after all."

"Now, show me the venue."

"Of course, brother Chen. I'll guide you there." Bai Hua guided him and the disciples from the Oak Academy to their seating.

All the guests had arrived.

Instructors were arranged to be seated at the top of the arena. While participants would be seated in the middle, and the spectators would be seated at the bottom.

On the top, there were eight seats. Each was occupied by the instructor.

Lou Xiang asked, "Who do you think will win the competition this time?"

Wang Ru replied, "Of course, we will be the champion."

Everyone snorted.

Suddenly, Zao Chen asked, "So, will the principal show up this time?"

Gong Wei replied, "The principal is in close-door cultivation."

"Is he about to make a breakthrough?"

Bai Hua replied, "We are not sure, yet."

"That's a shame. So, when are we starting the competition?" Zao Chen asked again.

Bai Hua replied, "We can begin right away."

Gong Wei stood up and made an announcement.

"Dear disciples, the friendly competition will commence now."

"Your first mission is to hunt as many monsters as possible. We had secured the forest up to the middle region of the forest. So, there won't be any beasts above the mid-archon realm."

[You will get 10 points for hunting an early-mutation realm beast]

[30 points for hunting a mid-mutation realm beast]

[50 points for hunting a peak-mutation realm beast]

[100 points for hunting an early-archon realm beast]

[200 points for hunting a mid-archon realm beast]

"First round will last for 3 days. Only a hundred disciples will be qualified for the next round. So, give it your best."

"Disciples are forbidden from killing each other. If we find someone violating the rules, they will be punished severely. We will be monitoring your actions closely."

"Now, let the competition commence."

Everyone cheered in unison.

Soon, all the participants left for the forest in a hurry.
