Tatyana disappeared and reappeared beside the sect masters. Today was the first time she would show up in public like this without covering anything or using illusions to confuse people.

Before this, she didn't have a reason not to appear, but it was bothersome, so she never did. Moreover, she wanted to avoid every cultivator recognizing her in public and knowing her different identities because of her face.

However, this time, she has come with her little treasure. She had planned to reveal her identity as headmistress here, but those Long and Tang bastards spoiled her. She had a very hard time resisting destroying them and their whole family right there and then. However, every time she does this, she must disappear from her little treasure side for a while.

Tatyana didn't want to be apart from her anymore and lose more of her growing days, so like a good mother, she didn't slaughter them. 'I mean, what would you guys choose? Being beside my little treasure or massacring those brainless people? How about you tell me in your comments~?'

(Author: I give up, do whatever you want...)

In the place Tatyana appeared, there were nearly 30 people beside her. These thirty people and Tatyana walked toward the tall stage in the middle of the plaza. Two handsome men led everyone, and Tatyana approached their side, walking side by side with them; no one objected. These two men seemed to represent two sides.

One was in black robes; he radiated demonic charm and had deep purple eyes. He was 195cm tall, and his body was perfectly muscular, with smooth skin. His face had a constant smile that took female and male souls away, and his eyes had their ends slightly raised, adding to his fascinating facial features.

The other man had white and gold robes. He was 190cm tall, and his body was also perfectly proportioned. He was also tall and handsome, but he overflowed with a gentle aura that made people lower their guards around him. However, his face was stern, and his facial features seemed carved by a sword, making people respect him.

They both had black hair, but their disposition was completely the opposite. They looked at Tatyana with surprised expressions, not knowing that she would participate in the presentation this year. However, they didn't say anything.

This woman could be considered the third power of the continent. Even if they were among the strongest on the continent, having this woman as an enemy was not something they wanted.

Not because of fear, because if she helps one of the two, the balanced situation will break instantly.

When they reached the top of the platform where the oceans of people looked at them, a giant screen appeared in the sky. freewe bnovel.com

The leader of the Heavenly Sect spoke; his voice was deep, and his aura was now as steady as a mountain. "You're all here to get an entry jade to the secret realm that will open soon. Since the only limitations for presenting was to be above the ninth level of the body modification realm and lower than the half-step of the Mental nourishing realm, the participants this time are plenty."

The leader from the demonic side continued; his voice was pleasant, and his face charming, but his aura was similar to a malevolent demon. "Since this secret realm will be opened in various places, some in my territory and others in his. We decided to make this tournament. This secret realm is important because it is the legacy of a strong cultivator from before the Heavenly cataclysm."

He let it sink in and continued, "There are less than 1500 entry jades left after dividing it among the sects. Since there is a lot of trash around, we decided to create various stages. In short, you will need to make it into the top 1500 to have a chance to get an entry jade."

Tatyana took a step forward; her face was frosty, and her bearing elegant. Her aura was like a tyrannical ruler, overwhelming, profound, and ruthless. "Since the neutral sects and rogue cultivators didn't want to be left out, I came here representing them as the headmistress of the Rising Talent Academy. The rules will be ruthless. So, if you die, well, bad luck."

Her red eyes swept everyone and said, "Here, all of you play in the same field. You won't be able to use the influence of your oh-so-powerful daddy or mommy. So be it male or female, you better think with your head instead of your lower half before taking action. Especially those dual cultivation sects and "noble" cultivators."

The other two leaders' lips twitched. 'Weren't you going to explain the rules of the first round!? What the hell are you saying?'

Tatyana continued, "The rules are simple and very common. A giant formation will send all of you to different grounds; you can kill beasts, find objects, and kill other people to gain points. We don't want mass murder to occur; therefore, the formation will send only your spiritual body and your weapon of choice. It can't be higher than a high-level heaven-ranked weapon."

Tatyana finished saying with a smirk, "If you kill a person, you steal 10% of their points. The person killed will be revived in ten hours, the test will last one week, and each day the formation will eliminate the lower half of the people. Thus, we will reduce the more than a million people here to a little more than 20 000 this week. There will also be a ranking board that will show the people on top inside and outside the formation. If someone knows your name and face... I hope you are friends with them, or you can be in trouble~."

People started cursing and saying that this was too cruel. But the leaders ignored the angry mob, Any cultivator above the mortal realms could easily kill the more than one million Mental Nourishing realm cultivators gathered here. That was the difference between mortal and transcendent realm cultivators.

Tatyana suddenly said, "By the way, don't worry about your real bodies. All the sects here are protecting you; if one participant is killed, the moment we discover who did it, the rest will attack that individual or sect, no matter their strength. It has been sworn to the heavens. So go wild inside without caring about the outside. Moreover, there is a healing spring in the center of all the spawning points, where attacking or touching other people is prohibited."

Then she stepped forward, disappearing from the stop, and returned to Yasenia's side. The friends who didn't know Tatyana's position looked at her stupidly. 'SHE IS THE HEADMISTRESS!?'

Yasenia asked Tatyana, "When are we starting?"

Tatyana said, "Just sit crossed-legged. The whole plaza has been transformed into a giant formation. After we wait for those that want to leave after hearing the rules, you will go inside."

Tatyana, knowing her daughter's skill set, said. "The position of the sun and moon you will see in the formation is synched with the outside. Use it well."

Yasenia nodded and sat cross-legged. The academy disciples went around her and followed her example. Where is better to sit than around the headmistress? Other disciples also modeled and created a chain reaction, and soon, all the participants sat cross-legged.

Tatyana stayed by Yasenia's side without moving a single step. 'Let's see if you dare do something, Long and Tang families; this eminence will send you to the underworld!'

The formation activated, illuminating everything, and every participant felt like the ground sucked them downward. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸𝘦𝑏𝑛𝑜𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸𝑜𝘮

When Yasenia opened her eyes, she was inside a normal house. She looked around and saw her sword beside her. Besides that, she didn't see anyone else inside nor anything practical. Curiously she tried to cultivate, and to her surprise, it worked! However, the absorption rate was lower than normal. 'A shame I'm at the realm breaking point. Since I'm so close, I could have advanced inside the formation if I didn't have to cross the tribulation.'

How they could gain points was imprinted into their heads at this moment. Yasenia internalized the information and nodded.

She stood up and looked outside a window. She was in a small city, and she could see tall walls on the borders. The buildings weren't very high, and the streets were very narrow compared with Champion city's streets.

Cultivators started appearing on the street and decided to observe a little. She shook her head when she saw a man of a dual cultivation sect trying to drag a woman away. The woman's companions reacted fast, and a big fight started inside the city.

However, the buildings seemed to be indestructible, as they weren't damaging them. 'This can be useful, but the fact that the man dragged the woman confirms that we can have sex with our spiritual bodies. Moreover, forcing oneself on another person is allowed since dual cultivators have seduction techniques and techniques to squeeze dry their target, killing them. When mom said that rules are ruthless, she wasn't lying....'

Yasenia tried to find someone she knew, but she didn't see anyone. 'I won't be joining a group... I'm too attractive, and problems will arise almost for certain... Sigh, the problems of being too beautiful, what a tragedy~.'

Thankfully no one was reading her thoughts, or they would have a stroke at her shamelessness.

Yasenia snickered at her thoughts and went out through the window onto the roof, carrying her giant sword. She looked around and ran in the direction of the north wall, which was the closest to her position. While jumping from roof to roof, she saw that it was a little later than Noon. 'Elimination will happen each day at noon. Maybe I can use this...'

When she neared the wall, she put strength into her legs and jumped up from the 30m tall building toward the 80m tall wall. She soared to the sky and landed without problems on the wall. Then, she looked around. Her objective was to see if the beasts would attack the city or if she had to find them outside.

If it were the first, gathering objects for points would be inefficient.

The formation ranked the beasts' points like this; second rank beasts, no matter the level, 1 point. Low-level third rank 10 points; middle-level third rank 50 points; high-level third rank beast's value was 250; finally, a fourth rank beast valued at 2500 points.

However, killing one was practically impossible. They were as strong as Unification realm experts, whom Yasenia couldn't even scratch... Yet.

On the other side, the object value was 1 point per item. Spirits items went like this; 5 points for a low-level spirit treasure, 15 for a middle-level spirit treasure, and 30 for a high-level spirit treasure. Magical treasures started scaling, low-level magical items valued at 100 points, a middle level 150 points, and a high-grade one at 250. Finally, an earth-level treasure was 1000 points worth.

Knowing this, Yasenia intended to fight in a zone and use her dragon sense to search for treasures after killing the beasts in that area.

After waiting for 5 minutes, Yasenia saw people advancing towards the forest. She suddenly saw a name jumping to the first position on the rankings. It was Angel with 1000 points! 'Did she find an earth-level treasure!? My baby is mighty!'

Yasenia didn't see the cultivators that went ahead returning, so she guessed that the beasts were scattered in the wild.

She jumped off the 80m tall wall, launching herself forward. *BANG!* She landed, creating a small crater, and shot toward the forest quickly. She looked back and saw some people on her trail. 'Already aiming for me? Are my previously jesting thoughts becoming a reality? Mom, why did you make me so beautiful!'

She didn't appreciate people following her around, so she started using the [Lingering star steps] to lose her trackers. She then activated [Starry Sky], gathering stars around her.

Even if the skill consumes energy per second, with her current regeneration at the half-step level, she could maintain it, slowing her energy regeneration down. Little white lights started gathering around her.
