The Chaos Dragon Prince

Cain and Kali took the time to critically view the general outlook of missions. Their eyes swept over from Low all the way up to Peak Tier.

Before coming here, they had a general outline of what specific type of mission they wanted. But hearing Lei Li's explanation did instill the sibling duo with a bit of curiosity to branch out.

In a few moments, the sibling duo read over various missions already. As they read, one big question gradually surfaced within their minds.

The missions do indeed vary. But it appears as there was a central theme surrounding these missions.

That is to venture out into the Wild Plain's Demonic area.

At that moment, Cain and Kali recalled what they learned about the geography of the Martial Province.

The Wild Plains is a massive regional area that bridges the road towards the higher rank Provinces. Compared to the Misty Wilderness, there was less danger constantly prowling the Wild Plains.

This was due to the fact that vicious beasts tend to not show up here. All because there are numerous cultivators settlements set up all throughout the Wild Plains.

These cultivators' settlements essentially transform their spot of the Wild Plains, making it suitable for humans to mainly live there. In addition, these spots were an excellent alternative for cultivators who can't afford to live in Azure Lightning City.

The cost of living was far cheaper. Rarely would one come across a deeply powerful background, Family or Clan. And the standards of cultivators were rumored to be more peaceful than the city.

To achieve such a serene standard of living, the vicious beasts were presumably wiped off from around these areas.

At least, that's what Cain and Kali assume. They weren't entirely sure because there were dangerous zones within the Wild Plains that were far more deadly than the Tribal Domain.

These zones had threats that were described by ordinary cultivators as a place where death can sprout up at any moment, no matter how prepared you are.

However, such ominousness didn't worry either Cain or Kali.

But seeing that missions mainly revolve around these Demonic Areas, Cain and eve Kali felt their interest genuinely increase.

Without taking his eyes from the mission board, Kali was the one to speak up Lei Li. She asked, "Hey, just how come so many missions center around these Demonic Areas? Seems like these places are simply a stain around here. So why hasn't there's been a mass extinction of it? Or at the very least, since this Academy is interested in it, why haven't they wiped it off? Legitimately I don't see any reason to keep it around."

Kali's tone was full of curiosity. She awaited to intently listen to Lei Li's words. This would be her first time ever doing this.

Of course, she would never admit out loud, but truthfully, Kali felt an innate draw to learn more about areas that were crawled with obvious danger. It fueled her excitement to venture about there.

"Oh? This issue? Well, let's see…." Lei Li was a bit taken aback.

Half because she never put too much thought into why these missions are like this. Other half was because Kali spoke to her with genuine interest.

Wanting to make a good impression, Lei Li organized her thoughts and said, "Truthfully, this is for students to boost their own reputations. And, in turn, boost the reputation of the Academy. A lot of smaller towns and villages are next to these Demonic Areas. And it's our job to help them out with any request. With all these requests done throughout the years, our Academy has a huge following that's better than the Azure Lightning Sect. This is one of the reasons why we're described as the fairest of the top four organizations."

Using this kind of method almost makes these students seem like saviors or heroes.

Cain was more amused at this idea than Kali. Considering the mentality of the average student or the average talented one, he wonders if some of them actually think they're genuinely good people.

The merit of helping weaker towns and villages certainly couldn't be counted out.

But Cain wonders if these students would even care to do it if there was no reward out of it.

The morality of cultivators barely crosses Cain's mind. Not when his own morality can be considered a bit cold to even the people of this universe.

Still, it was intriguing for him to see ignorant or perhaps delusional people in action.

Out from these amusing thoughts, one question still permeated Cain's mind.

"This is a good method and all. But still, just where exactly do these Demonic Areas come from? Perhaps they have origins the entire city fears?" Cain further inquired.

Lei Li's response was quicker as she casually shrugged her shoulders. "Sorry. But I'm at a total loss of these Demonic Areas origins. Some rumors say they've been around before the creation of this city. Other rumors say it's caused by the deceased remains of an Tier 8 vicious beasts deeply buried within the ground. Apparently, nobody knows for sure. What is confirmed, though, is that these Demonic Areas will continually pop up no matter what."

"I see...."

Cain quietly muttered, stopping his line question. This could be an interesting tale to explore one day.

But for now, he and Kali focused their full attention back on the mission board.

A few moments later and the sibling duo eventually settled their sights on one particular mission.

The paper read over; 'High-Tier. Slaying the Demonic Golden Wolf and its pack. Demonic Golden Wolf-9th level Nascent Formation. Five other Demonic Wolves-7th level Nascent Formation. Rewards; 4,000 Profound Grade crystals. Nascent Rank Early Grade combat weapon. 2 Profound Opening Pills.'

As they read over this mission, Cain and Kali's eyes gradually brightened. This was the perfect mission to temper themselves!

With the enemy count and cultivation levels, the sibling duo saw this as the time to hone the various skills they practiced last night.

At this moment, Lei Li caught on to the evidently interested stares the sibling duo had. Feeling curious, she shot her eyes towards the same mission paper.

And immediately, her breathing nearly hitched in her throat.

They couldn't possibly be thinking about this mission?!

"Cain, Kali. I know you two are confident and are quite powerful, but you shouldn't let this cloud your judgment. You really shouldn't choose this mission. All Inner ranked students who took on this mission came back severely injured! They had to rest up in their rooms for weeks. Some had even died! Our top-tier talents in the Inner Rank even have caution over this mission. Mn-mn! No way should you choose this mission!"

Lei Li spoke in her most persuasive tone. She honestly doesn't want to see immense talents like these two perish. That would be a waste to the whole City!

Furthermore, Lei Li felt genuine concern for at least Cain's overall health. She held a highly favorable impression of him despite having only a couple of encounters.

In response to Lei Li's warnings, Cain and Kali didn't react at all. Instead, they took a glance over to each other to confirm their thoughts.

As the sibling duo witnessed the blazing fighting spirit within their eyes, they simultaneously cracked an eager smirk.

Cain then wordlessly took the paper down and read over its full context.

Seeing that she was ignored, Lei Li had a faint premonition that any further words would be worthless. However, she still at least had to try.

"If you two are in great need of strength or resources, there are far better missions to take on, you know? You could also form a group to take on riskier missions that are slightly easier than this one!"

At this moment, Cain and Kali finally tossed their gazes on Lei Li. Their attention was so snap and sudden that it caught Lei Li entirely off guard. She nearly jumped in shock.

Being stared down by Cain and Kali's indifferent gaze erased any previous thoughts or suggestions she wanted to say. Their eyes held a specific type of power she couldn't possibly refuse.

She could only shut up and listen to what they had to say.

"What's so scary about treading close to danger that may lead to death? The riskier something is, the greater the reward will be. It's all about how confident you are in making it through it alive." Cain spoke with plain indifference.

Then, without giving Lei Li to even stew on his words, he and Kali promptly turn on their heels, walking out towards the exit.

Their steps were even, filled with an unshakable calmness.

As other students saw the sibling duo calmly walk up, murmurs about them only increased.

"These two….they have to be the Heaven-Defying Talents! New students with that badge….what else can it be? But man, aren't they just too arrogant?"

"I've heard that they both effortlessly crush the opponents who were a level above them. Heh. No doubt this is giving them all the confidence in the world."

"Still, this is far too boastful. These two are still only at the sixth and fifth levels. How the hell do they expect to even come close to matching an eighth-level Nascent! Much less a ninth-level vicious beast with special innate powers!"

Many students do believe the outrageous word of mouth about Cain and Kali's Heaven Defying Talent. However, these students didn't see their prowess with their own eyes.

In the end, it's still difficult to imagine lower level cultivators utterly dominating someone at a higher level with apparent ease.

So it's no wonder absolutely nobody there believed the sibling duo could complete the mission.

"These two…."

Lei Li simply didn't know what to think. Her rational side was telling her that those two are being too confident. They will surely die!

However, another side of her felt incredibly strange.

Confidence can be faked. But Cain and Kali's temperament seemed all genuine. It was like they genuinely do have the skills for this mission.

A faint premonition couldn't stop from crawling into Lei Li's mind.

Just maybe….could they really achieve this task?

All of her instincts told her it was impossible.. But for an inexplicable reason, Lei Li felt as if she would see something entirely unexpected in the upcoming days.
