Bai Chen and Xiao Fei then looked at each other, hatred shooting out from their eyes.

To Bai Chen, he would have to repay the debt he suffered from the last time he was heavily injured by Xiao Fei. Furthermore, Xiao Fei was constantly thinking of ways to get rid of Bai Chen.

The elder then said, ”Once the four of you enter the Hall, we will reward you with spirit stones depending on the amount of spirit beast cores each month. The higher the level of the demonic beasts you hunt, the more spirit stones you will be rewarded.”

”Elder Northmont, when will we be able to enter Black Wing Mountain?” Cao Qi could not suppress the excitement in his heart as he asked anxiously.

Elder Bei Shan looked at Cao Qi and said, ”You can do it anytime you want, but there are a lot of spirit beasts in the Black Wing Mountain, and most of them can't be defeated by you. Therefore, the disciples who come to the Black Wing Mountain need to first check the terrain and the situation before they can leave.”

Behind the Hall of Fame in the south of Canghai Academy was the place where the students of the Lingxiao Hall lived. They had returned from the Northern Mountain Elder's mansion and Bai Chen had been arranged to enter the Lingxiao Hall.

This lake was the place where the spiritual energy in the academy was the densest. Those who were able to enter the Soaring Sky Hall would have to step into the doors of the geniuses, and the academy would also give them the best resources.

During the day, most of the courtyard in Lingxiao Hall was empty, and most of the students would enter the Black Wing Mountain to train.

After settling everything down, Bai Chen and Zhang Fu were first familiarized with the situation of Lingxiao Hall.

The main mission of these students entering Lingxiao Hall was to train in the Black Wing Mountain, and the school was to pick out the true geniuses after a period of assessment. Afterwards, the elders would take them in as their disciples and teach them top cultivation techniques.

”Brother Zhang Fu, this place is so quiet.” Walking in the quiet courtyard of Lingxiao Hall, Bai Chen still couldn't conceal the excitement in his heart. To him, being able to enter Lingxiao Hall was something beyond his expectations.

”Oh, the students of Lingxiao Hall usually go to the Black Wing Mountain to hunt spirit beasts, so it is impossible to see them here.” Zhang Fu answered with a smile.

”Let's go to Black Wing Mountain tomorrow.” During this period of cultivation, both his physical body and spiritual energy had reached the level of Intermediate Spirit Masters. It was very important for him to go to actual combat and temper his cultivation.

Bai Chen and Zhang Fu returned to their residences to rest after making a detour around the bluestone paved path in the courtyard of Lingxiao Hall, discovering that there was not a single student in sight.

The next morning, when the first ray of sunlight shined upon Canghai Academy, the Lingxiao Hall was filled with the abundant Spiritual Qi of Heaven and Earth.

Bai Chen and Zhang Fu arrived at the Elder's place early in the morning, followed by Xiao Fei and Cao Qi. Today was the day they would go to the Black Wing Mountain.

The North Mountain elder had been waiting for a long time. He said lightly, ”The four of you are going to Black Wing Mountain today. Remember the rule of our Azure Sea Academy: you cannot kill each other as fellow disciples. If you violate the rules, you will be punished.

Bai Chen glanced at Xiao Fei. Both of them could not hide the hostility in their eyes and they both nodded.

The North Mountain elder frowned slightly, as if he had noticed the abnormality of the two of them. However, as a student of the Lingxiao Hall, they would definitely experience an unimaginable ordeal.

The Black Wing Mountain was located in the north of the Canghai Academy. The mountain range spanned for hundreds of miles, and it was also known as the two major spiritual beast mountain ranges of the East Star Continent. There were countless spirit beasts there, and all the disciples of the sects on the ground of the East Star Continent would train in it.

From Zhang Fu's words, Bai Chen already knew that in the past hundred years, many students had already lost their lives in the Black Wing Mountain.

In the past few decades, the North Mountain elder had seen many talented students fall at the Black Wing Mountain, so he didn't have much expectations for Bai Chen and the other two.

Alright, you guys can go now. Remember, if you run into disciples from other sects, try not to get into trouble. In Black Wing Mountain, everyone can only rely on themselves to survive. The tone of the North Mountain elder remained calm. Bai Chen and Zhang Fu looked at each other, their hearts full of wariness.

The people who entered the Black Wing Mountain to hunt were the spirit cultivators of the entire East Star Continent. Besides the Canghai Academy, there were also disciples of other sects who would definitely not avoid conflicts. In order to maintain peace between those big sects, they had already set an unwritten rule that any disciple of a sect could live or die in the Black Wing Mountain by themselves.

As a result, aside from the spirit beasts, the Black Wing Mountain was also filled with man-made dangers. Almost everyone who had entered the Black Wing Mountain knew this, but no one was afraid, because they were spirit cultivators. If they wanted to become outstanding, they had to fight for it.

After listening to the elder's brief explanation, Bai Chen and the other three left Canghai Academy and headed towards the Black Wing Mountain in the north.

They were in a group of four, and each of them had brought enough food and water. They were ready to go through a round of training in Black Wing Mountain.

Amongst the four of them, Bai Chen and Zhang Fu were in the same group. Although Xiao Fei wanted to kill him at all times, Zhang Fu would not leave at all times, so Xiao Fei did not dare act rashly.

Although Bai Chen also had killing intent towards Xiao Fei, this was after all his first time going to Black Wing Mountain. No one knew what he was about to face, so it was better for him to conserve his strength.

They arrived at Black Wing Mountain after seven or eight days without a word. In front of Bai Chen was the huge mountain range of the Black Wing Mountain, which stretched over a hundred miles. It was grand and tall, lying horizontally under the sky, giving off an aged and vigorous feeling when looking at it from afar.

In front of them was a small town with only a few hundred families. However, this was the last town to enter the Black Wing Mountain, and countless disciples came from all over the continent.

A few sect disciples who had hunted for spirit beast cores in the Black Wing Mountain were also selling them in the town. It caused the town's shops and inns to be crowded and bustling with noise and excitement. The tavern by the side of the road had a sweet smell to it.
