Falling into Yun Sheng’s ears, it was as if someone was whispering at the base of her earlobe. Yun Sheng recalled the day in the Medicine Hall when Ye Beiming bit her earlobe, and her heart suddenly began to race. "He is my aunt’s younger brother," Yun Sheng blurted out, but then she thought bitterly, why should I explain this to Ye Huli. "Little Wildcat, it seems you have forgotten something; you are now a married woman. In the future, in front of this prince, do not mention any other men, otherwise next time we meet, this prince will properly teach you the duties of a fiancee," Ye Beiming said authoritatively. "Ye Huli, are you jealous?" Yun Sheng suddenly realized. "This prince is jealous," Ye Beiming stated matter-of-factly. "Our engagement was just to deceive others," Yun Sheng said helplessly, this boy actually took it seriously, she would not marry a boy younger than herself by several years. "Once the engagement is made, you belong to this prince. Also, I must inform you that whether you can find the Life Water or not, you must return to Great Zhou in two months," Ye Beiming didn’t want to pressure Yun Sheng too much. Having known Yun Sheng for several years, he knew that Little Wildcat was different from any other woman he knew; she valued loyalty, but feared restriction the most. For some reason, she was particularly slow in understanding romantic affairs. Whether it was Yuan Bupo, Dugu Xiu, or his most dreaded Xia Wenxu from the Magic Temple, their affection for her was clear, yet she could completely ignore it. If she’s not naturally slow, then she must be a natural fool in love. But that’s also good; once he abducts her into the Mainland Elite Camp, cutting her off from all those people, he will have ways to train the fool to understand. This is also why Ye Beiming did not hesitate to bind Yun Sheng with a marital contract. "Two months? We haven’t even arrived at Xianju Country yet; it’s a bit too rushed," Yun Sheng was uncertain. "In two months, the selection for the guaranteed spots at the Mainland Magic Elite Camp will begin. This time, you must secure the spot," Yun Sheng came to the Wuxuan Wuji Hall in the name of an exchange student, when the Martial Arts Hall and the academy agreed on a four-year exchange period, with the next Divine Artifact search as the deadline. During this time, Yun Sheng’s student status remained at the Royal Magic Academy. This meant that she was eligible to participate in this selection of the Royal Magic Academy. But the prerequisite is that Yun Sheng must return before the selection in two months. "Mainland Magic Elite Camp? I have thought about joining the Elite Camp; I’m not interested in competing with those people from the Royal Magic Academy," Yun Sheng recalled the term. She remembered, when in Luoxia City, a female mage named Lan, who she had dueled, was from the Mainland Magic Elite Camp. It is said that the Mainland Elite Camp is the main base for geniuses; geniuses from various countries across the continent gather there to receive the top-level guidance in magic and combat skills. But Yun Sheng had no intention of joining the Elite Camp; she never liked to cooperate with so-called geniuses, especially since it’s an internal selection of the Royal Academy, Chen Lianlian would surely participate. She doesn’t like dealing with Chen Lianlian. Yun Sheng didn’t realize that she herself was already a demon-level genius. "You must join," Ye Beiming said in a non-negotiable tone, "This prince wants to join the Continent Martial Artist Elite Camp." The implicit message is, if you don’t want to see your dear fiancé and Chen Lianlian acting lovey-dovey for the next few years, you better obediently follow me to the Mainland Magic Elite Camp. Yun Sheng wanted to retort, but somehow, every time she thought of Ye Beiming and Chen Lianlian’s faces overlapping, she felt somewhat gloomy. Still, she adamantly denied it, "I won’t go." Ye Beiming persisted, "If you want to study Dark Magic, you must go to the Mainland Magic Elite Camp." When Yun Sheng heard ’Dark Magic’, her spirits lifted immediately, just like a cat that smelt fish. Most of Yun Sheng’s current magic, including the Four Natural Magic of wind, earth, water, and fire, had reached the intermediate level or even mastered Secret Magic. However, only Dark Magic remained at the very basic beginner level. The reason is simple, due to the Magic Temple’s ban, there are very few opportunities to learn Dark Magic on the continent. Yun Sheng could only rely on the books from the Royal Magic Academy and couldn’t learn higher levels of Dark Magic. So, when she suddenly heard that Dark Magic could be learned at the Mainland Magic Elite Camp, Yun Sheng reacted in such a way. "You’re not tricking me, right? How can the Mainland Magic Elite Camp allow learning Dark Magic out of protocol?" Yun Sheng questioned. "The mainland has some extremist views on Dark Magic, but due to the powerful influence of the Magic Temple, typical nations, even Tang Yuan, seldom see traces of Dark Magic. However, the Mainland Magic Elite Camp is different. It has one purpose only, to pursue the utmost realms of magic and combat skills, be it Light or Dark Magic, all are considered magic," as Ye Beiming explained, Yun Sheng imagined the general look of the Mainland Elite Camp. That would be a concentration camp for Martial Artists and Mages, full of maniacs focused on magic and combat skills. But Yun Sheng felt no fear at all, the stronger the opponent, the stronger she becomes, this is who Yun Sheng is. "I will find a way to rush back," Yun Sheng planned her trip; it seemed she needed to change her leisurely way of traveling. Under Ye Beiming’s guidance, Yun Sheng’s lute skills indeed improved significantly, playing the last three Chapters of Emperor’s Song quite professionally. Toward the end, Ye Beiming didn’t forget to remind Yun Sheng, "The power of Emperor’s Song, if not paired with the appropriate instrument, cannot be fully utilized, be cautious not to play recklessly." Yun Sheng was well aware of this, she had already entrusted Zhou Qingchuan to use the power of Wuji Commerce to find a fine lute as soon as possible; before that, she would not use Emperor’s Song in combat.

Yun Sheng had been to the borders of Hou Qin and Great Zhou, as well as the border between Great Zhou and Tang Yuan, but none of them were like the border between Tang Yuan and Xianju. Most countries would construct a shared city between their borders. But between Tang Yuan and Xianju Country, there was surprisingly no city. "Ahead is the border of Xianju Country, we can only take you all up to here," a few Tang Yuan soldiers responsible for the escort asked
