'Good, I almost didn't use energy except to protect from that hit against the sword and the final strike.'

After landing from the jump, she returned to the beast's body and took the beast's core. After storing it in her ring, she dashed towards the exit.

After a while, she came across a wide river. 'Now I must cross this river? How? Should I swim? It can't be that easy.'

She looked around and didn't see anything useful.

Then, the dragoness took a long stick and tried to touch the river with it.

When the stick touched the river water, it instantly froze and broke. 'I can't resist that amount of coldness, and this wood also can't, so creating a raft is not an option. This river is two hundred meters wide at most. With the help of my energy and tail, I can jump about forty meters. How to cover the rest?'

Yassenia hovered across the river shore. At one point, she saw some trees growing inside the river water—a picturesque scene.

'Those trees are close enough for me to reach, but….'

She took one fruit and threw it to the tree, only to be snatched and devoured by a giant snake living in it.

She smiled wryly. 'What to do now?'

She looked behind and suddenly saw a forest of tall bamboo. She had a bizarre idea. 'Should I catapult myself with the help of these bamboos?'

Yasenia swallowed. 'Will I be able to reach the other side?'

After approaching, she used her energy in them, and surprisingly it absorbed it!

Knowing what to do, the dragoness took one rock of her size and weight and put it on one of them. Then, she used one-tenth of her energy while bending it until it touched the ground, releasing it immediately.

The rook flew like an arrow released from a bow and overcame the river easily.

The dragoness smiled and did the same, using the same amount of energy. Then, she anchored to the soil with the tail and mounted the bamboo.

After releasing her tail, she was launched across the river. She couldn't help but shout a little and laugh. "Hahaha, this is so fuunn!!!"

Seeing the floor coming closer, she used her arms to grab one branch and used the momentum of the fall to do some spins, slowing her fall.

"Bam!"

Yasenia landed safely on the ground. "I must tell Mom to buy some of those to bring home, hahaha! So fun!"

When she looked back, and saw some people appearing. "Oh… they took their time to catch up."

Then she saw some people jumping directly into the water, and she opened her eyes, stupefied. 'So reckless!?'

As she expected, those people directly jumped to their deaths!

They started to freeze, and when they wanted to return, some aquatic monsters entangled them and dragged them to the bottom of the river. Like that, some people died.

She turned around and spoke ruefully. "Truly, haste makes waste."

Remembering her blunder when reciting this saying when she was little, she laughed.

Yasenia ran forward and finally reached the end. 'In the end, it was an agility, combat, and mental flexibility test. I'm sure there are more methods to pass that river.'

A teacher was waiting in the end. "Congratulations on being the first in this circuit and the third within all the stages!"

Yasenia bowed and thanked him.

"Pass this teleportation circle. It will lead to the next test."

Yasenia walked forward and stood in the center of the circle. Then it lit up, and she disappeared from the sport.

When she arrived at the next area, two other people were there. One girl and one boy.

The girl was chatting nonstop with the boy, but the boy ignored her. The girl, after a while, pouted and looked towards the entrance.

When she saw Yasenia, her eyes locked onto her, well, onto her chest.

Yasneia's lips twitched.

This was the first time, even when looking at someone, that she received such an unabashed lecherous gaze from a woman no less!

Feeling curious about this strange person, she smiled a little and was about to start to walk towards her when that girl flashed like an electric spark towards her.

Now that the girl was near, she was able to inspect her.

She seemed to have a rare lightning attribute that had been perfected to a very high degree for her age.

She had rather average facial features, and she was flat-chested. Her height reached 165 centimeters.

Yasenia was more than a head taller than her.

However, her striking electric blue hair and beautiful violet-colored eyes give her a pleasant appearance.

"Hello! Hello! My name is Evelyn! I'm 21 years old, single, and trying to find a beautiful, tall, busty, and seductive *wink* *wink* woman as a partner! I'm at the seventh level of the Body modification realm, and my constitution is super awesome! [Lightning devouring body] I can devour lightning, but I'm also good at devouring other things-."

*Bang!*

She was slapped into the ground by Yasenia's tail.

The boy said. "Finally, she shut up. She has been speaking nonstop since I came to this room."

Yasenia couldn't help but massage her forehead. "Has she also flirted with you too?"

The boy shook his head. "No, that was new…"

Yasenia couldn't help but sigh. Then she picked Evelyn up by wrapping her tail around her waist and lifting her.

Well, she was an amusing person.

Unlike that young master, who was as arrogant as a peacock and looked at her with quite a slimy gaze, one could tell that Evelyn's tone was playful and didn't mean bad.

Yasenia placed her on the ground and said, with a little laugh. "Evelyn, I say, do you have a stop button? I don't want to slap you to the ground every time… Oi, my face is up here."

Evelyn said with a completely serious face. "I know, but your peerless tits are not-."

*Bang!*

Seeing that people were arriving, Yasenia turned around and sat cross-legged with her eyes closed.

Evelyn stood up and went to her side.

Yasenia opened one eye and swished her tail a little in the form of a warning. "I know! I know! Don't swish that dangerous thing in front of my face. By the way, what is your name? And what are your three sizes-."

*Bang!*

This time Evelyn didn't stand up…

A while later, Yasenia saw Oliver appear with some injuries.

The dragoness raised her beautiful eyebrow in surprise. "What happened? Was the beast too strong?"

Oliver shook his head. "Those bastards attacked me after my battle with the beast. I could only run for a while to lose them, and only then was I able to make it to the finish line."

Yasenia asked curiously. "Did you already make enemies?"

Oliver said in an exaggerated manner. "My dear miss, that person was your suitor who spoke to you before! I got shot down even when I was lying down!"

Yasenia was surprised. "Is he that petty? He didn't have the guts to attack me, so he targeted you?"

Oliver shrugged his shoulders, and Yasenia couldn't help but frown a little.

Evelyn sitting beside Yasenia, was actually nervous! 'Who is he? Her boyfriend? A-although I was a little joking… I really like this girl! I still don't know her name… will I have a heartbreak before I even get to know her name?'

Yasenia felt that Evelyn was nervous, and after thinking for a while, she understood. Her teasing habits surfaced again!

She lowered her face and whispered sultrily, "Evelyn, why are you so nervous? hmm?"

Evelyn could feel all her senses becoming numb, and her heart rate sped up! "I-I am, uh, T-that."

'Why did I lose my ability to speak endlessly right now!?'

Yasenia chuckled lowly one her ear and hugged her from behind, using her tail tip to caress her cheek and pressing her softness on her back. Moreover, Yasenia's sweet floral scent assaulted Evelyn all around.

Evelyn's brain short-circuited, and Oliver couldn't help but save the little girl with a laugh. "Say, Yasenia, can you stop teasing her? Her face has become as red as a rose! I don't think she can even think straight anymore, hahaha."

Yasenia relented and separated from the back of Evelyn.

Then she started to massage Evelyn's scalp softly with her moon energy relaxing her thoughts and bringing her back to earth. "Sorry, Evelyn, your nervous appearance was adorable, and I couldn't help but tease you a little."

Then she asked, making a pitiful expression. "Are you mad?"

'Who in this world can tell you they are mad when you put that face!?'

"N-No, b-but if you do something like that again, I will have you take responsibility for me!"

Yasenia said sincerely. "I won't, don't worry. I will become better and control myself."

Evelyn thought, aggravated. 'Why did it become like that!? Don't become better at controlling yourself! Can't you see that I want you to take responsibility!?'

The teacher arrived, interrupting what Evelyn was about to say.

This time Mason appeared.

When he reached his position, he felt murderous intent from an electric blue-haired girl and was stupefied. 'Did I provoke someone recently? Well, it doesn't matter.'

He started with a general-like tone. "I'm Mason, the practical teacher of the cultivation branch. I'm a triple attributed master controlling metal, earth, and space. All people here will be able to participate in the next test. The next text will prove your heart. A cultivator with a weak heart will become a Demonic cultivator sooner or later, and in this academy, we don't raise demonic cultivators."

"You all will enter one of the five formations behind me. It will be a pass if you can stay inside the formation for one minute. You will be ranked based on the duration. If two people last the same, we will consider the previous assessment and order you like that. Begin!"

Yasenia spectated for a while.

She saw some people failing in the tenth second. There was even a girl that failed the test in the 59th second.

The people that passed had pale faces for the most part.

After seeing them for 20 minutes, she prepared to enter. She started advancing, and Evelyn and Oliver followed.

Each entered one formation, sat cross-legged, and closed their eyes.

Some days have passed since her heart demon examination. Yasenia was at the carriage, almost reaching home.

She was returning home because she failed the heart demon test and thus didn't pass the academy entrance.

Anna and Eve were cold-faced and didn't even bother talking to her.

Yasenia looked outside the carriage with a saddened expression and thought. 'Who would have thought my heart demon was so bad I didn't even last 15 seconds? At least Oliver passed. Sigh, will Mom be disappointed?'

She closed her eyes to rest.

After a while, Yasenia heard Anna calling her stoically. "Miss, we have arrived."

Yasenia opened her eyes, and seeing the expressionless face of Anna, she couldn't help but feel pain in her heart, but she endured. 'Even if your heart is weak, you can't let this affect you. You have to train harder and try another path. There isn't only one path to the summit.'

Yasenia opened her mansion doors, and instead of the typically lively atmosphere, there was an oppressing silence. She was confused.

'What happened?'

She continued onwards, and when she was about to pass the living room, Richard appeared devoid of his usual gentle smile and with a sad feeling around him. "Miss, we have some bad news."

Yasenia looked over and asked with a restless heart, "What happened?"

Richard said, "Lady Tatyana has been captured by one of her old enemies. Right now, she is being…"

Richard paused and decided not to say it, but Yasenias heart gave a painful *Thump.*

Richard sighed. "We… can't do anything." Then, he continued with a pained expression. "The enemy is too strong..."
