The students hiding in the dormitory stared at the hundred-meter pit on the sports field without saying a word. After a long time, some students lamented one after another, “The lightning tribulation is too terrifying…”

Sheng Xiao stood in the field and stared at the hundred-meter pit in the middle of the field. He frowned in confusion.

Every Beast Tamer would experience tribulation when they advanced. Why did he not suffer any tribulation lightning when he became a Master and Supreme Master?

At the back of the mountain.

‘When Yu Huang saw that the dark clouds had dispersed and the ancient alligator had returned to the deep sea, she asked Gold Ingot, “The tribulation lightning is over.”

“Yes, it’s over. I’m afraid Professor Zhong will have to recuperate for months this time.”

Compared to Professor Zhong, Yu Huang was more worried about the dean. “Professor, the dean just blocked a bolt of lightning for Professor Zhong. Will he be okay?”

Gold Ingot said, “He won’t die.”

As long as she didnt die.

“Continue cultivating. Don’t slack off!” Once the tribulation lightning ended, Gold Ingot left.

Yu Huang stared at the spot where Gold Ingot was standing beside her and suddenly smiled. He was worried that she would be afraid after encountering the lightning tribulation for the first time and specially ran to the back of the mountain to accompany her. Professor Gold was also a stubborn yet

soft-hearted fellow.

“I should continue cultivating.”

Yu Huang stayed in the back mountain for one and a half months. The sky was beginning to get cold, and the students had all changed into autumn clothes. However, at this moment, Yu Huang was covered in sweat. Even though she was only wearing a vest, she still felt very hot.

“297.”

“298.”

Yu Huang wiped the sweat off her forehead. She gritted her teeth and took another step forward. “299.” She continued to raise her legs, but her legs seemed to be filled with lead. She couldn’t raise them no matter how hard she tried.

”.. Hu!” Yu Huang took a deep breath and circulated the last bit of spiritual power in her body. Her calf trembled for a long time before she raised her leg.

“30”

300!

Yu Huang finally stood at the finish line!

After a month and a half, she could finally finish these 300 steps without stopping. Yu Huang looked at the pressure stone floating above her head and felt a sense of familiarity.

The moment Yu Huang completed her mission, Gold Ingot suddenly appeared.

He sat ona tree and threw a peach at Yu Huang. Yu Huang caught the peach and lowered her head to take a bite. She frowned from the sourness. “It’s so sour.”

Gold Ingot smiled. “Go back and take a shower. You don’t have to come today. We’ll continue tomorrow.”

“Thave a day off today?” Knowing that she could rest for a day, Yu Huang was delighted and felt like she had won the lottery.

Gold Ingot said, “Today is the annual Sacrifice Festival.”

Sacrifice Festival?

Sacrifice Festival?

The most solemn festival on the Holy Spirit Continent was even more solemn than the Spring Festival of Earth. On this day, the entire Holy Spirit Continent had to worship their ancestors.

The Divine Moon Empire’s Sacrifice Festival was especially solemn. On this day, the Grand State Master would bring the members of the royal family the Mo Clan and the six families to Saint Mountain to worship their ancestors and great people. The ordinary people would also go to the Holy Spirit Halls

in various places to worship.

On the day of the sacrifice, the people who were sacrificed had to bathe in the morning sunlight and dress up properly.

Gold Ingot told Yu Huang, “Today, the entire school’s teachers and students are going to the Hall of Fame at the central square to worship us. Quickly go back and take a shower and tidy up your appearance. Otherwise, it will be disrespectful to our ancestors.”

“Tunderstand!”

Gold Ingot temporarily put away the stone. Yu Huang immediately had the feeling that she was letting herself go. She directly spread open the Vermillion Bird’s wings and flew back to the Divine Realm Academy.

During the month and a half that Yu Huang had been cultivating in the mountains, Sheng Yang and Na Luo missed her very much. Without Yu Huang accompanying them on missions, they did not have any passion for missions.

Early in the morning, Sheng Yang and Na Luo had showered and were changing their school uniforms when they heard a knock on the door. Na Luo tidied up her clothes and ran over to open the door.

‘When she saw Yu Huang standing outside the door, Na Luo’s face was filled with surprise. “Yu Huang, Professor Gold is finally willing to let you out of the mountain!” Na Luo opened her arms to hug Yu Huang, but when she got close to Yu Huang, she could smell the sour and smelly odor on Yu Huang’s

body.

Na Luo hurriedly took a step back and pinched her nose as she said, “Go take a shower. You stink!”

Sheng Yang did not believe her. “How smelly can it be?” She moved closer to Yu Huang and sniffed her. Her expression also became one of disdain. “Quickly go and take a shower!”

Yu Huang chuckled and ran to the bathroom. It took her half an hour to wash herself clean.

Yu Huang walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around her long hair. Na Luo and Sheng Yang surrounded her immediately and asked her, “How was it? Did you gain anything in the past month and a half?”

Yu Huang bent her arm, revealing the muscles on her arm. She said, “Look, I’ve gained a lot of muscles.”

Sheng Yang poked Yu Huang’s muscles and she said, “They’re not as hard as my brother’s.”

Yu Huang’s gaze flickered slightly as she asked, “Why did you touch your brother’s muscles?” She had never touched it before!

Sheng Yang rolled hef eyes. “You’re even jealous of me?”

Only Na Luo could not keep up with the two of them, She asked innocently, “Why would Yu Huang be jealous when Yang Yang touched Mr. Sheng’s muscles?”

Sheng Yang patted Na Luo’s shoulder. “You’re such a naive little girl.”

Yu Huang didn’t explain.

She quickly changed her clothes and tied up her hair before following Sheng Yang and the others downstairs to the field to gather.

The entire school’s teachers and students, lining up according to their respective classes, were gathered on the field. Later, they would take the bird to the Central Plaza. As the entire school only had 10 students with $-level potential, these 10 people would take the same bird.

The entire school walked out from the gate and crossed the iron chainway on the Boundless River to the Bird Platform. The students of the 12th grade were the first to set off, and the students of the ist grade were the last.

After all the students left, only Yu Huang and the others were left.

A bird could take 60 people. The 10 of them could sit on a bird and choose their seats.

Yin Rong got onto the bird’s back and sat at the far leftmost comer of the first row. Xiao Shu followed suit and sat beside Yin Rong with a smile. “Rong Rong, let’s sit together.”

Yin Rong smiled at him gently and didn’t speak.

‘When Yu Huang saw this scene, she suddenly understood that Xiao Shu was in love with Yin Rong.

Yu Huang quickly followed Sheng Xiao when she saw that he had gotten onto his bird mount. She saw Sheng Xiao sit down in the last row and walked to him without hesitation. “Mr. Sheng, I’ll sit beside you. You don’t mind, do you?”

Sheng Xiao opened his eyes and glanced at her from the corner of his eye. He did not reject her, nor could he bear to reject her.

Yu Huang knew that Sheng Xiao had agreed. She sat down beside him.

The bird took off.

“Ouch!” Yu Huang exclaimed while pretending to be shocked. She fell toward Sheng Xiao and leaned on his shoulder.

After the bird stabilized itself, Yu Huang refused to get up.

Sheng Xiao reminded her, “It’s not shaking now.”

Yu Huang said, “I feel dizzy. I think it’s a hypoglycemic attack.”

Her tone was serious. Sheng Xiao could not tell if she was telling the truth or lying. He thought about how this girl had been abused by Professor Gold recently. She might not even have eaten her fill. She might be so hungry that she had low blood sugar.

Sheng Xiao looked around. When he saw that no one was paying attention to them, he suddenly took out a bottle of beverage from his interspatial ring and handed it to Yu Huang. “If you have low blood sugar, you will feel better after drinking something sweet.”

Yu Huang widened her eyes. She quickly snatched the bottle and hid it behind her back. She lowered her voice and said to Sheng Xiao, “The academy forbids us to secretly hide our phones and snacks, so why are you taking the lead in hiding snacks?”

Sheng Xiao explained, “This is not a snack. It’s a nutrient stick with Spirit Gathering Grass. When I was a child, I was always hungry. This thing is useful, so I hid it.” It had become a habit over time.

Yu Huang’s heart ached for him..
