"The frost dew is a very concentrated ice essence of a natural oddity. The quality of the one you hold is the same as the fire stones you obtained. It is not something that a Qi general can handle directly. Try to infuse the thread energy gently and keep the fire energy at the bay."

"The mixture would burst inside your body, possibly injuring your internals."

Long Tao infused a thread of the frosted dew inside his body and began to absorb and rotate it according to the method. Although it seemed to be performing well, a burst of fire energy immediately rushed out of Long Tao's acupoints, directly infusing into the frost energy.

With a bam, they canceled each other's effect. Although the bang was not big enough, it could be felt by Long Tao. He couldn't believe what would have happened if he directly infused a lot of energy into his body.

"I guess you felt the effect just now?" The Keeper said after looking at Long Tao.

"Aftereffect is quite bad. Only triple the amount of energy I just infused would be enough to cause an injury within my body."

"Restrict fire energy."

Long Tao started to infuse another thread of energy into his body. The fire energy rushed out once again, but he tried to restrict it by using his Qi and other elemental energy. It took a lot of time just to restrict the fire energy and rotate that thread of frost energy throughout his body.

Long Tao was sweating profusely by the time it was exhausted. He opened his eyes and relaxed his body by taking a deep breath.

"This is just too difficult. The fire energy is too rampant, trying to dissolve the frost energy immediately. It would take me forever to open the water elemental acupoints this way."

"The theory of forces is quite simple. Although opposing forces do cancel each other, similar forces do tend to support. You just need to infuse enough frost energy to have a certain amount stored within your body."

"Once the amount of energy reaches the required point, it would start to support the induction of more frost energy into your body. You would need to exert less amount of Qi to maintain the balance after that."

Long Tao followed the path designed by the Keeper. He infused small threads of energy into his body continuously and rotated it until the energy was properly absorbed. The process was going to be quite long due to the formation embedded in his body.

"Only the ones with a great will could overcome this barrier and arrive at the required stage. You need to strive through the hardship."

White Lightning City-

Any outsider who has ever stepped even closer to the region will experience a mesmerizing view of multiple colors spraying throughout the night sky. Multiple lines spread throughout the black heavens, illuminating it. Only when one step is close enough do they realize what the colored lines are.

Multiple streaks of thunder were constantly bombarding the ground beneath. The city got its name from this weird phenomenon of lightning all over its skies. It not only proved to be the hub of great resources with the lightning attribute but housed one of the hegemonic powers within the central plains.

The Thunder Academy was said to have been established by a powerful; thunder element cultivator of the past. During his journey of honing his martial path, he came across this land, which was blessed by lightning. It was the perfect place for practicing lightning attributed arts.

The uniqueness could very well be visualized from the residual thunder energy which was always present within the surrounding Qi. Long-term exposure could even enhance a cultivator's affinity towards the lightning element.

Once the academy was established, it didn't take long for it to establish a name for itself throughout the world. White Lightning city even recorded strange battle dialects, which p[reserved the history of wars fought by the Thunder academy before it finally reached a stable period.

The academy managed to take control of the whole area, and most of the resources. The real treasures which were formed by the massive thunder energy were immediately seized by the academy and classified as a secret. Many enthusiasts who wanted to cultivate in thunder element, desired to enter the academy for this very reason.

The principle of thunder academy was quite strict. It didn't hold a direct examination for cultivators to appear. Instead, there were only two ways for someone to get accepted. The first way was to be found by one of the elders within the academy and getting recommended by him. One would need to undergo a test after that to get certified

The other way is to join one of the subordinate forces first and get recommended by them. All the recommendations would be grouped, and a test would be held to examine the possible candidates who would go ahead and become disciples of the academy.

The only policy presented by the higher-ups was the bone age and cultivation level of cultivators. One had to be within 25 years of age and within the Qi general realm to participate in the test. The test was also the keystone of verifying the standard of the subordinate forces.

The gradation of their respective candidates determined their rankings among the various forces. It was the reason that the test was quite brutal. It was a race to get your hands on more cultivation resources.

.....................

The city was bustling as the time for the test has arrived once again. The entrance examination of Thunder Academy was going to be held in three phases. The first phase was to filter the participants to a mere hundred disciples. These disciples were going to appear in two simultaneous tests. 

The top 50 were allowed to enter the academy as outer disciples. The top 50 would then compete to filter out the top 10 people who would get to enter the inner court.

The top 10 would then compete in the last exam which would decide the top 3. Only those top three were eligible to become the core disciple. The filtration carried out by the academy was quite harsh and hence the talent which managed to pass through was heaven-defying. 

...................

Li Meng entered the city along with another caravan of merchants. He had the token from the thunder-god hall to prove his identity and would soon be registering for the test.

He was thrilled to find out the secret which was held within the examination. It was something that had the potential to clear his doubts regarding 9-thunder body art and reach its ultimate peak. He wanted to experiment with the reason behind the 9-thunder body being the optimum requirement to connect with heavenly law.

"Should we get started then?" Li Meng spoke to himself and moved towards the arena.
