Envy is a lethal weapon for won, and though Yun Sheng is currently enjoying her success, if she offends both new and seasoned female Mages who admire Cherry Blossoms, she wouldn’t need to lift a finger; soone would take care of her.
Being able to use others to deal with Yun Sheng without the Tutor suspecting her brought Ke Ling a sense of smug satisfaction.
"Yes, not only is she fickle in love, she also lacks respect for her elders, and shows not the slightest regard for , her senior. I’ve long wanted to teach her a lesson. I can tell you, after training each day, Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling always go to the central dining hall to eat. Rember, don’t say you got this information from ," Ke Ling coaxingly advised.
The few newcor female Mages, unwittingly being used as pawns, thanked Ke Ling gratefully before they left.
Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling, already inside the Magic Space, naturally knew nothing of what was happening outside.
The two of them had already started the latest round of training with the Dark Gold Master.
Within the Magic Barrier on the left, Donghuang Lingling was trembling as she held her shaking Magic Wand, eyes wide open.
Despite having undergone two previous sessions, she hadn’t expected the Dark Gold Master to devise such a twisted thod of training.
This ti, the training involved killing.
The Dark Gold Master, truly worthy of the title "Assassin,"
stood before her, a "living" person.
This ti, to complete the training, Donghuang Lingling had to repel the various illusions conjured within the Magic Space.
The "person" before her was a maid from Donghuang Lingling’s own court.
Even though it was just an illusion, the "person" was incredibly lifelike, identical to a real human being, even respectfully addressing Donghuang Lingling as "Princess."
The harsh voice of the Dark Gold Master echoed in her ears: "Use Thunder Flash to kill her."
"No... I can’t do it," Donghuang Lingling knew that the illusion before her couldn’t be real, but that lifelike smile and the vivid likeness were indisputably that of her personal maid.
"If you can’t kill her, then wait for her to kill you."
"Swoosh," an Ice Arrow pierced Donghuang Lingling’s body.
Donghuang Lingling scread, feeling a coldness envelop her entire being.
Her skin began to freeze, and even her consciousness was ravaged.
The "maid" before her showed no rcy, raising her Magic Wand and shooting one Ice Arrow after another ruthlessly towards Donghuang Lingling.
Donghuang Lingling could even sll her own skin being pierced and the scent of blood spreading.
The taste of death instantly surrounded Donghuang Lingling.
This sensation of being enveloped by death lasted for half an hour.
It was only then that Donghuang Lingling woke from her faint.
"Rember, either you die or she does. Once you enter the Dutian Beast Blood Realm, no one knows what kind of enemy you will face. Perhaps the enemy will take the form of your comrade, delivering a fatal blow at the most dangerous mont. At that ti, what you face is true death. This training is called, Death Training," the voice of the Dark Gold Master, like an apparition, crept like a venomous snake from so unknown corner, flicking its crimson tongue.
In another Magic Barrier, Yun Sheng wasn’t faring much better either.
The illusion she faced was, in fact, Hu Jiusheng.
The one who had taken off the mask, that peerlessly beautiful face was just inches away, her voice and smile so similar to Hu Jiusheng of Ice Waterfall City.
"This trial is called the Death Training. What you need to do is to slay your enemies. With the least amount of Magic Power, cast the fastest Magic, to kill the opponent." The voice of the Dark Gold Master was like a lullaby.
Yun Sheng, without the hesitation of Donghuang Lingling, began chanting quickly, and almost simultaneously, a Fire Fla Burst whooshed towards Hu Jiusheng.
Yun Sheng was clear, that was an illusion, but also the strongest opponent she had ever faced in her life.
Although she had figured this out long ago, the woman’s miserable scream when the Fire Fla Burst engulfed "Hu Jiusheng", and the blood that splattered, felt so real.
That was real death.
Yun Sheng was not soone who had never killed before, but she had never killed so directly, so brutally, and the target was even her own mother.
Yun Sheng felt a convulsion in her stomach and couldn’t help but vomit.
"Rember, this is the feeling of death, and the true essence of Dark Magic. Dark Magic is endless slaughter, not fearing slaughter, experiencing it, controlling it," the Dark Gold Master’s voice rang out again.
After Yun Sheng emptied her stomach, she sat down cross-legged.
She felt that just then, her Dark Magic Soul had miraculously grown a bit.
This special, almost mad training thod, perhaps only the Dark Gold Master would employ.
Yun Sheng couldn’t help but smile bitterly.
Death Training, being killed or killing, over the next two months, repeated itself over and over again. Both Yun Sheng and Donghuang Lingling were initially very uncomfortable with it.
Especially Donghuang Lingling, she showed strong resistance to this cruel training.
Her resistance was particularly evident, from the initial reluctance of the Divine Soul to later having nightmares. Several tis, after the blood-soaked Death Training, Donghuang Lingling would wake up from a nightmare.
Her appetite wasn’t good either; in just over a month, Donghuang Lingling quickly grew haggard, like a flower that had lost its water.
Yun Sheng had tried to comfort her a few tis, but it had no effect; she also tried concocting so Magic Potions for Donghuang Lingling, but still to no avail.
ntal afflictions require ntal redies, Yun Sheng understood well, one could only wait for Donghuang Lingling to endure it herself.
Donghuang Lingling’s abnormal state also caught the attention of Gu Feng and Qi.
Both Gu Feng and Qi were quite surprised to learn about the two’s training.
Especially Gu Feng, he was even sowhat angry.
Gu Feng said with heartache, "This is not training at all, it’s simply tornting people. Lingling, otherwise, stop following the Dark Gold Master, she really is a madman as the rumors say. I’ll go speak with the Sunrise Tutor and see if he can take you in."
Qi Ye was also worried, but he did not agree with Gu Feng’s approach: "Every Tutor has their own thod of training. Yun Sheng and Lingling just need ti. Moreover, Dark Magic is the most unorthodox type of all magics. Sunrise Tutor is a Light Magic Master, aside from you, others can hardly learn anything from him."
Gu Feng sighed; he knew Qi Ye was speaking the truth.
"We’ll get through this, just like last year," Yun Sheng patted Donghuang Lingling, "How about we don’t train today, let’s go for a walk instead."
Donghuang Lingling forced a smile.
The two bid farewell to Gu Feng and Qi Ye and started wandering around the Mainland Elite Camp.
