After bidding farewell to Eunuch Liu, the academy's opening day finally arrived.
Around a hundred candidates were picked up from the relay station together and escorted to the Imperial City Academy.
The magnificent and grand image he had imagined—of the Imperial City Academy's pavilions and towers stretching endlessly—did not materialize.
Unlike the Northern Territory Trial Ground, situated within the Hundred Thousand Mountains, the Imperial City Academy was built on the summit of a mountain called Mountain Rain Peak.
The candidates were brought to the foot of Mountain Rain Peak. Everyone looked up. The peak was nearly 1,500 meters high. Within the towering Imperial City Mountain Range, Mountain Rain Peak wasn't particularly prominent, but because the Imperial City Academy was built upon it, the mountain had taken on an air of mystery and legend.
