Chapter 43: Crossing the Black Horn Domain! Making an Example!

"Ah~"

Xiao Ze stretched lazily as they finally arrived at the outskirts of the Black Horn Domain.

Several enrollment teams were already stationed here.

Numerous students recruited from various countries by Canaan Academy were staying in the small town.

"This small town is controlled by the people of Canaan Academy and is used to accommodate the enrollment teams."

Instructor Ruolin came to the front of the group and explained to everyone.

"The Black Horn Domain is a dark place filled with chaos and slaughter, where one can easily encounter disasters and calamities."

"Once all the enrollment teams have returned, we'll be escorted to Canaan Academy by the academy's experts."

"We still have some time now. You can explore this small town."

"This town gathers enrollment teams from all over, and there may be things of interest to you. Feel free to take a look."

"Remember! Fighting is not allowed in this town!"

Instructor Ruolin's expression was serious as she finished her last sentence and waved her hand, allowing the students to disperse.

Xiao Ze, Xiao Xun, the little doctor, and others did not leave but continued to stay by Instructor Ruolin's side.

"Instructor Ruolin, how long do you think it will take to cross the Black Horn Domain and reach Canaan Academy?"

Xiao Ze asked.

"Why? Are you already eager to see the scenery of Canaan Academy?" Instructor Ruolin said with a smile.

After thinking for a moment, she pondered, "Normally, we are considered relatively late, and the enrollment teams should be able to gather within two days."

"Even with the escort of the academy's experts, crossing the Black Horn Domain is not a simple matter."

"Natural disasters are one thing, but encountering hundreds or even thousands of bandits would be a real problem."

"Conservatively, it will take about ten days."

Xiao Ze nodded. He couldn't cultivate well while on the road, mainly fearing attracting unnecessary trouble with too much movement.

Once they reached Canaan Academy, he would be able to focus on cultivation.

As he remembered, Canaan Academy seemed to have a vast and endless back mountain.

The core inner court of Canaan Academy was also hidden in that endless back mountain.

Time passed quickly.

Early in the morning, after counting all the teams, an old man's wings fluttered slightly, and he rose into the air.

"The enrollment teams are all here. You have half an hour to pack up, and we'll leave immediately after that!"

His voice, carried by fighting energy, resounded throughout the town.

Xiao Ze suddenly opened his eyes and got up from the bed.

He had been sleeping fully clothed these past two days. When traveling, it was better to be cautious and not draw too much attention.

On the other two beds, the little doctor and Xiao Xun also woke up one after the other.

"We're finally going to cross the Black Horn Domain. I can't wait to start practicing in Canaan Academy," Xiao Xun said with a smile, following Xiao Ze out.

As they stepped out of the room, they were greeted by a lively scene with many people packing up.

Xiao Ze and the others all had spatial rings, so they traveled light and didn't need to pack much. They waited by Instructor Ruolin's side.

Time passed quickly, and half an hour later, the old man's voice echoed again.

"Half an hour is up, let's go!"

The massive procession set off, heading towards the chaotic and bloody dark land of the Black Horn Domain.

The annual enrollment ceremony of Canaan Academy always attracted covetous eyes from all sides.

After all, with such a large group, there were always some daring individuals who wanted to take advantage.

Especially the notorious bandits in the Black Horn Domain, with their reputation for licking blood off their knives.

Every year, countless desperados rushed to the Black Horn Domain to become bandits.

New people replaced the old, and no one seemed to learn from this.

On the fifth day of the journey, a strong energy fluctuation appeared at the end of the team. It was the action of the academy's experts!

At least they were at the King level!

Soon after, an old man controlled dozens of heads in the air, hanging them on various flagpoles of the team, making an example!

The flagpoles of the entire team were already filled with heads.

These heads were all from bandits who had attempted to attack the team over the past few days, thinking they could rob them!

As they delved deeper into the Black Horn Domain, the number of heads on the flagpoles increased, and their deterrent power grew significantly.

Many bandits would think twice before taking action, fearing they would end up as a warning head on a flagpole!

The new students who were originally excited in the team.

Seeing the ferocious and bloody heads on the flagpoles above them, each of their faces turned pale.

But the instructors didn't say anything. Canaan Academy didn't aim to cultivate flowers but true warriors!

If one couldn't bear the bloodshed and killing, then it was better to leave the path of cultivation as soon as possible!

Leaning against the flagpole, Xiao Ze breathed in the air with a faint smell of blood, his expression calm, and even his mind was contemplating new abilities.

Since obtaining the Hardship Poison Body, he had consciously attempted to integrate the poison of the body with the water attribute fighting energy in his body.

It had shown initial results before, but deeper development was needed to fully unleash the power of these two energies!

Especially the perfect integration of the Hardship Poison Body and water attribute fighting energy might create a completely new special attribute.

Is it Toxic Water or Poisonous Water? Xiao Ze pushed aside the thought of naming it for now. It wasn't completely developed yet, so naming could wait.

Moreover, this unique attribute might be exclusive to him on the continent of fighting energy. Naming it wouldn't serve much purpose; knowing the situation would be enough.

In the following days, harassment noticeably decreased.

After all, the heads on the flagpoles were once living beings.

The price of daring to provoke Canaan Academy was this!

...

Xiao Ze stood up, and before his eyes were two magnificent mountains.

And between the mountains was a town.

Xiao Ze looked at the slowly clearing town in his sight, as well as a plaque with the name of the town written on it.

Town of Peace!

"This is the Town of Peace, and there's the Death Spirit Tree!"

Xiao Ze looked at the peculiar tree, which had witnessed the history of the struggle between Canaan Academy and the forces in the Black Horn Domain.

To achieve peace in this chaotic and bloody Black Horn Domain, one had to exert much more effort than one could imagine.

The Death Spirit Tree hung with a Dou Huang body and two Dou Wang bodies was ironclad proof!

"Phew, we're finally approaching the outskirts of Canaan Academy. Next, we just need to cross a primitive forest to officially reach Canaan City!"

Instructor Ruolin said to Xiao Ze.

Xiao Ze nodded, his eyes filled with anticipation.

There were no further accidents, and they safely passed through the primitive forest.

A magnificent city appeared in front of the many new students.

Canaan City!

Canaan Academy was located in the center of the city!

Entering Canaan City, Xiao Ze could clearly feel that Instructor Ruolin had relaxed a lot.

"Instructor Ruolin, are you feeling more relaxed now?"

Xiao Ze smiled.

Ruolin rolled her eyes and said impatiently, "The busy time is yet to come. I need to arrange various matters for the new students..."

Ruolin grabbed Xiao Ze's hand with a worried look, "Don't disappear on me again, okay?"

"I'll try my best..."

"No trying your best... At least wait until I finish arranging everything for the new students..."

Ruolin widened her eyes, looking at Xiao Ze angrily, her usual gentle demeanor completely gone!

"Okay, okay."
