Today marked the day when the last day of Hunter Mania come to conclusion.

An imposing voice rang through the entire misty swamp. "The Hunter Mania Test has come to an end.

"In five minutes, two light pillars will rise on the east and west sides of the misty swamp. In the east, will ascend a white pillar, and in the west, will ascend a golden pillar.

"Those who had collected five badges will head toward the golden pillar, while those who failed to achieve the target will head toward the white pillar!

"Attacking each other is prohibited now!"

Just as the voice trailed off, contestants appeared. Some were exhausted and relieved, while some had lingering fear on their faces.

Soon after five minutes passed, the mist in the misty swamp started to fad, and two eye-catching, light pillars rose just as the voice announced.

The contestants quickly move toward their corresponding pillars according to the arrangement.

But the contestants moving toward the white pillar were much more than the golden pillar.

The demons moving toward the white pillar knew the test was over for them this year, and it was time to go back home.

At this moment, five demons were moving toward the golden pillar in different directions. One after another, they crossed the golden pillar.

Ace was the last to enter the golden pillar, and when he crossed over the light pillar, the entire scenery changed.

From the gloomy and foggy environment of the misty swamp, he was now standing in a clear grass field under the scorching sun.

Ace's eyes contracted when his eyes fell upon the four tall buildings' silhouettes, almost piercing in the clouds.

Furthermore, he noticed that between those colossal silhouettes and them was a one-mile-wide water body, and there was only a huge stone bridge in the distance that led toward the other side.

Ace was still a few miles away from that bridge, but it was hard to go unnoticed. Around him was a vast land surrounding my lush forests from the east side while a mountain range was on the west side and behind him were also woods.

The vast wall and the demonic gates were also a few miles away behind him.

'So, this is the Royal Demon Academy!' Ace's expression was grave."Beautiful, isn't it?" A gentle voice rang at this moment, drawing everyone's attention.

A brown skin, gorgeous demoness in institute black attire stood a few feet away from the five contestants. But unlike the two demons on the gate, her attire didn't have white outlines, but they were blue.

Ace's heart turned cold because he didn't notice when this demoness appeared there, and couldn't feel her presence still.

The demoness had a mild smile on her red lips as she looked at the five contestants with a curious gaze.

Including Archie, the other four around him were Charles, Nancy, Hugo, and unexpectedly, Lucas!

However, unlike them, Archie was completely fine while these four were pale and had exhausted expressions on their faces.

A peculiar glint flashed past the demoness' eyes when her eyes fell on Archie.

She spoke again in her gentle voice, "Congratulations, fellow students on passing the entrance test this year and earning yourself the opportunity of a lifetime.

"My name is Mylah, and I'm a third-grade student of the extraordinary class and a substitute instructor of Ordinary-First-Grade of Martial Arts House. So, you guys can call me senior or instructor, I won't mind either way.

"I'm here to escort you to the Royal Bridge, where you all get registered with the institute and the four Royal Houses. According to your test result, you'll be given choices, or you might not be given one at all. It all depends on your performance.

"Let's go. If you have any questions, you can ask me on the way." Mylah beckoned everyone to follow her and start moving toward the bridge in the distance.

No one dared to reject her, and they start following Mylah while keeping their distance from each other, especially Nancy and Lucas. They both were far away from Archie, who was completely at ease.

"Instructor, what are those four buildings in the distance?" Ace couldn't help but ask since there was no information about the Royal Demon Institute's internal structure on the outside.

Mylah replied smilingly, "Those four buildings are the headquarters of the four Royal Houses. We called them Royal Towers. Although they seemed close from this distance, in actuality, they were at least a hundred miles apart from each other.

"The lands of the royal demon institute are divided into four territories, and we from the different houses are not allowed to enter a different house's territory without permission.

"Surrounding those headquarters in a ring-like structure are Ordinary, Extraordinary, and Special districts. As you might've guessed, the students live in these districts according to their class grades. Only the Core Students are allowed to live in the four Royal Towers.

"Let me tell you a small secret which you will discover in time, but as a kind-hearted senior, I'll tell you on your first day." Mylah flashed a mysterious smile before she said, "The closer you're to a Royal Tower, the faster your cultivation speed, and you can even rent a cultivate room in the Royal Tower if you have enough royal points, so don't waste them.""What are the royal points?" Hugo asked with squinted eyes.

"Royal Points are the currency of the Royal Demon Institute. Each month, you'll get an allocated amount of Royal Points according to your class grade. You can also earn them by doing missions posted by the institute, and there are more ways, you'll know once you are registered." Mylah revealed, "With Royal Points, you can buy anything in the Royal Demon Institute even a chance to comprehend a Low-Sky-Breaker-Grade Technique in the central library!"

Everyone's eyes widened and shone with longing when they heard this, well expect Ace.

Ace pretend to be surprised and asked something which truly interested him, "Is the Central Library the place where all the skills and techniques of the royal demon institute are stored?"

Mylah didn't find this question strange and answered with pride, "Why, of course, the Central Library is in the very center of the royal demon institute beside Principal Manor. The central territory, we called it.

"That place is the true foundation of our Royal Demon institute, and there are all kinds of knowledge regarding any topic. As long as you have sufficient Royal Points, you can access that knowledge.

"But we are all restricted by our grades and ranks. A First-Ordinary-Grade Student can only access to First-Ordinary-Grade Knowledge and so on. But just that ordinary grade knowledge is enough to rival any noble clan out there besides the Grand Demon Clans."

Ace's eyes shone thievishly. 'This central library should be one of my targets. But it won't be easy to break in without getting noticed. I shall make a treasure blueprint of it when I have a chance to visit that place.

'As for the treasury, I just had to keep an eye out for the places where the institute provides pills and treasures, and this will lead me right where the primary source of these treasures…'

Ace had already started working on his scheme to rob the two most guarded places of the Royal Demon Institute.

After a while, they all reached the stone bridge, but they first entered a small building a couple of meters away from the entrance, which was surrounded by a barrier.

Mylah led everyone to a spacious room where an old fiery demon in institute black attire with a green outline was sitting behind a table.

The moment the young demons entered the room, the old demon's emotionless eyes scanned through the group and said, "You're all new, I presumed?"

Mylah bowed respectfully, and she conveyed, "Yes, Sir Yehuda, I'm here to get them registered on the order of the Royal Institute Council!"

Yehuda didn't seem surprised, as he had already received the orders from the Royal Institute Council.

The Royal Institute Council was the backbone of the Royal Demon Institute and it oversees and makes almost every decision of the Royal Demon Institute. No one can overstep the Royal Institute Council expect the Principle or the Demon Emperor!

Yehuda waved his sleeve, and two black institute attires with white strips and a storage ring on top of two attires appeared on the table.

He impassively said, "Nancy Poison Wood, and Lucas Soul LIfe, you two are enrolled and appointed in the First-Ordinary-Grade Class of Soul Assassin House. The further information and the other necessaries are in the storage rings."

Nancy and Lucas bowed respectfully and picked up their attire and storage ring, but there was still bitterness in their eyes because they both knew the ordinary class was at the bottom of the institute.

But they had no choice and won't dare to question the allocation by the institute unless they wanted to get kicked out.

Yehuda then placed another attire and storage ring and declared, "Hugo Fiery, you are enrolled and appointed in the First-Ordinary-Grade Martial Weapon House."

Hugo also quickly thank him while picking up his things. Yehuda was his clan's man, so he was more at ease.

Yehuda then placed another set and declared, "Charles Nightmare, you are enrolled and appointed in the First-Extraordinary-Grade Martial Arts House!"
