Mazir and Ren had finally reached the Elemental City.It had walls more than ten kilometers tall and thirty wide.Inside lived more than five billion people.The City was even bigger and Mazir could only tell a small portion of the city walls.Mazir felt many strong auras inside the city.He had already learned which were the main forces inside the Elemental Academy and City:The Divine Ten Gods Temple or simply Divine God Temple,Martial Alleance and the Gran Clan.Nobody would dare to offend these three powerhouses not even the Royal Clan,because they were hundreds of times weaker than the Elemental Academy even if they had two to three Elemental Lords.
The reason the Elemental Academy ruled was because they had an Elemental King,who was the headmaster.Elemental King is a realm to be feared of.They have the power to destroy islands and even a small continent like the Elemental Continent may break in two if two Elemental Kings fight.The Elemental Continent in terms of size is not small at all,it can be considered in the middle tier of the continents,but its power is weak.To be considered a real middle tier continent the continent needs ten Elemental Lords,but because the Elemental Academy wasn’t considered a REAL powerhouse and them didn’t want to become a middle tier continent,they weren’t considered a real middle tier continent which made a lot of peak Elemental Grandmasters furious.
“The city has an ancient aura which makes it better to watch!As expected!This city is really amazing!”
Mazir said with shiny eyes.he was excited to enter the Elemental Academy.After all he was just a ten years old kid even though his appearance was of a fifteen years old boy.Only Ren had seen his real appearance,but even he didn’t know why his hair turned white after he fought the bandit leader years before.But that was in the past.Mazir and Ren left thanking the Elemental Masters of the Earth Kingdom.They paid the taxes and entered the city.They were given two tokens.These two tokens would allow them to enter the Elemental Academy easier than normal cultivators.
“Let’s hurry or we might be late!”
Ren said with a little hurry.They both were excited.Ren had only seen the Elemental Academy and never entered it.They speed up to 5m each second and normal humans could barely see their afterimages.The Elemental Academy was around 1km away from them.They speed each minute.Finally reaching the speed of 30m a second.
In a few minutes they had already reached the Elemental Academy.It was huge.Really really huge.It could easily hold a few million people without a worry.The Elemental Academy had ten million disciples from which 50% are Elemental Core Cultivators,30% Elemental Spiritual Cultivators and 20% Elemental Masters.There is also the class of geniuses with more than thirty Elemental Grandmasters from the age of fifteen to twenty and something.But they rarely appear in public.They usually only appear at the exam to enter the Elemental Academy overseeing it with their own eyes.That was because the candidates may use tricks or cheat somehow in a way or another.
Mazir saw a few guards before them.They were of the peak Elemental Spiritual Realm.”As expected of the Elemental Academy,they would never let measly Elemental Core Cultivators guards the gate to inside their own Academy.But even so there is a strong barrier and formation protecting the gate to inside.It should be the [Twin Hell Formation].Even Elemental Grandmasters would have it hard surviving.”
The Twin Hell Formation was an formation which only the Elemental Academy had.It could easily hold a hundred Elemental Grandmaster’s attacks with a worry.Even if a hundred Elemental Grandmasters of the peak layer attacked together they would have no chance of winning.Elemental Grandmasters like Elemental Masters are divided in cycles.But different from them they have nine and not six cycles.One to three are early,four to six are intermediate,seven to nine are advanced and the peak of the ninth cycle is extreme.But few have reached the extreme layer and have breakthrough to the Elemental Lord Realm.Only the Elemental Grandmasters and the few Elemental Lords have done that deed.
Mazir and Ren took out their two tokens and the guards nodded.”You can enter,go right there is the place the examination will be hold.It is quite simple.
There are three stages which are held at the One hundred Heaven’s Stairs:Body Refining,Heart Scream and Talent Level.
At the tenth stair the Body Refining starts.Your body will be surrounded by flames which are more than a 1000C.They will be far away but still,they will make your body very hot.If you pass this stage before the 50th stair you will enter the second stage,Heart Scream or Heart Demon.Where you will fight your inner demon.
If you pass this stage before the 90th stage you will enter the Talent Level Stage.And if you complete this stage you are going to be accepted as a Elemental Academy Disciple.Got it ?Good luck and good bye!”

The guard who looked the kindest said and waved his hand.Mazir and Ren did the same and cheerfully entered the Elemental Academy.They immediately felt the change.The Energy inside the academy was a hundred if not a thousand times more dense and rich.It wouldn’t be strange for a Elemental Warrior to immediately breakthrough to the Elemental Core Realm the moment they enter.This was a heaven for cultivators who have stayed in a bottleneck for years without being able to breakthrough.But even normal Elemental Core Cultivators would find this a heaven let alone Elemental Spiritual Cultivators and Elemental Masters.It simply was a heaven for any cultivator who wished to breakthrough to the next layer or realm.
Mazir and Ren quickly reached the place where the examination would he held.There were already a few hundred cultivators ready to take the examination.They were excited and some were anxious.
(Let me explain the rankings of the Elemental Academy’s disciples as I couldn’t find it in the recent chapters:Outer Disciples-Elemental Core Cultivators,Inner Disciples-Elemental Spiritual Cultivators,Core Disciples-Elemental MasteR Cultivator,Elemental Grandmasters - True Disciples or Conclave Disciples.)
Mazir was mostly calm as his power was stronger by hundreds of times than these candidates before him.He was also stronger than Ren by a few times.Ren had finally reached the half-step realm.His power had risen a lot but it still was weaker than Mazir who could kill a few tens of Elemental Master’s of the half step realm.Which means that Ren was still lacking quite a bit to fight him with a handicap from Mazir.
Before them were three people.Two were boys and one was a girl.
The first boy was Alen Deadth.His hair was light blue and long.His eyes were light brown and held a fierce light inside.He was pretty tall and already inside the Elemental Grandmaster Realm.To be exact the fifth cycle of it.Deadth was a pretty well known clan.It was inside the top five clans,it was ranked fourth and was almost as strong as the third ranked clan,which was their best ally.
The first girl was Leana Gran.Her hair was dark black and was long almost reached her buttocks.Her eyes were light brown.But what made her sexy wasn’t her hair or eyes but these boobs,ass and sexy curves.Her cultivation was of the sixth cycle of the Elemental Grandmaster Realm.Alen was eighteen while Leana was almost eighteen.They both were the greatest talents of the Gran Clan.
The second girl was also eighteen.Her hair was light black while her eyes were brown.Her hair reached her belly.Her cultivation was of the fifth Elemental Grandmaster cycle.Her name was Jada Lin,which was the third ranked clan,Lin.Alen and Jada were fiancees and would marry soon after they reach nineteen.
The Lin clan had around 100.000.000 cultivators and 500.000.000 mortals who worked.They were either farmers or did odd jobs to win money.The Lin Clan although had so many cultivators had only 500.000 main cultivators.⅗ of these were Elemental Spiritual. The remaining 2 were either Elemental Masters or Elemental Grandmasters.The Lin clan only had one half step Elemental Lord and one Elemental Lord.
If we actually count every Elemental Lord in the Elemental Empire,they would reach around 50 to 70.But the Elemental Seven Kingdoms had only 7 to 14.One or two for each.The remaining Elemental Lords were either hiddening or outside of the Continent ruling weaker Continents or cultivating in dangerous islands even for Elemental Lords.
Alen clapped his hands and said,”Can you please hear me for a second?Looks at the stair next to me.”
Suddenly a hundred stairs which reached the clouds appeared next to Alen.They were white with a divine light shining on them.But unlike normal stairs they were really wide,at least fifty meters.But it still wasn’t enough to carry the now a thousand candidates who had came to join the Elemental Academy,meaning a few hundred would be immediately disqualify.”So savage...IT seems the Elemental Academy isn’t joking with their Examination.”
Mazir grinned.This would take quite a lot power to complete.He was excited to fight his inner demon.He had several people in mind:The Yir Clan,The Bandit Leader,Bis Anu or even a few other people he had meet in the time he spent training in several places.
“Who might be my inner demon?Maybe myself?”
He muttered excited even further.He also counted himself because in several situations it was his mind that stopped him doing the actions.Alen then continued smiling,”Then start!Climb the Heaven Stairs!But be careful!The Body Refining Stage has a Elemental Grandmaster’s pressure stopping you from moving even a single step!”
