DEMON QUEEN

Second Stage

It was fortunate that Emperor Zo Linzu had a high awareness of her status, although the girl was very attractive if the status of the girl he wanted for his son was very high then he would succumb.

While in a special place of the imperial family Queen Zo Binji, and her children were a little surprised when they looked at the dimansi wall that was opened. There was a girl who was still doing deep hermitage and the girl was very familiar with the girl.

"Isn't that girl the girl who saved you Zo Ruhi" Princess Zo Jeni told her sister.

Hearing the words from the elder brother made Princess Zo Ruhi turn her eyes and look at Xiao Ziya, the little boy's eyes twinkled with excitement.

"You are beautiful uwaa." said Zo Ruhi who was happy not to play.

"It looks like your daughter has a new sister" said Queen Zo Binji who was happy because her little daughter was also very happy.

Queen Zo Binji remembered that the girl he saw was the girl who saved him, after the tournament was over she would thank him and give him a reward in return. While the consort Zo Nixu looks so angry when he sees the family owned by Queen Zo Binji is very happy.

Two more hours had already passed Xiao Ziya out of the waterfall of the god's eyes, not because he was not strong with the pressure that was in the waterfall but he was a little hungry so chose to go out.

"It's amazing this year Miss Xiao Ziya from the Qiyu Imperial Academy who is a first-class outer disciple broke the record for the longest time in meditating congratulations miss." said Min Funze who was a little incredulous when reading the identity of Xiao Ziya. An outer disciple possessing such an incredible ability was a blessing for the Qiyu Imperial Academy.

"Eh I won the first stage?" said Xiao Ziya who was a little confused because he did not notice if the other students were no longer in the waterfall.

"Alright we will continue the second stage of the tournament this time. The second gate is open." said Min Funze who opened the second challenge in this tournament.

All the participants who were there were stunned because the challenge before them was very difficult. The expanse of fields covered in snow with some wooden footing towering skyline. Moreover, what should they do, who could stand such a cold place.

"You have to fight over those fifty wooden footholds, which can stay on the footing until the time is over is the pass in the second stage of the tournament." said Min Funze who makes students feel anxious because some of them come from places that have high temperatures so it will be very difficult when it comes to surviving in low temperature places.

They began to advance and intensify the wooden foothold, Xiao Ziya saw one of the highest footings among the others. The girl jumped up and occupied enough footing wood to hold both of her legs. While the other participants are still fighting each other to fight for other wooden footholds.

"In the second stage tournament of course the students of Merpatilah Academy are gaining advantage, they live in a very cold place" said Xiao Ziya who saw the other participants of the tournament. To ward off the cold that started to bother him Xiao Ziya coated his body with an immortal black flame.

As Xiao Ziya was relaxing watching the others arrive there was a participant who attacked towards Xiao Ziya. Xiao Ziya swiftly repelled every single attack that was aimed at him.

"You better give up this footing willingly" said a very proud and arrogant student.

"handed him over? in your dreams alone." said Xiao Ziya who directly attacked back the person with a lightning strike that made the arrogant participant was bounced down and fell down.

"Ah shit turns out that girl is stronger than I thought." said the young man who fell down with a bruise on his body.

All the surviving participants tried to survive the cold snowstorm that came out of nowhere, some of the participants were already shivering with some frozen body parts. While Xiao Ziya still survived without feeling the cold at all because the immortal black flames he had could protect him from the cold.

"Your little disciple is amazing" said Xi Sunbi, who greatly admired Xiao Ziya, facing the blizzard was not easy but she was able to pass through it without the cold.

A few moments had passed, the designated time for the second stage selection had been completed so that all participants could return to their respective participant seats. It could be seen all the participants shivering in the cold as well as the representative students of the Merpati Academy. Of course, what caught their attention until now was only one participant, Xiao Ziya, who was eating meat sandwiches casually in her chair.

"As long as for the fifty participants who can survive, because your condition is already very weak due to survive in the blizzard, the next stage of the tournament will be carried out tomorrow." min Fuzen said, announcing that today's tournament is over and that it will resume tomorrow.

All the participants were relieved that they could rest now, some of them began to disperse themselves to return to their respective inns, and some choose to take a break at the tournament venue because they are so exhausted.

"Miss Ziya are you okay" said Ling An who went straight to Xiao Ziya as well as the other students of the Qiyu Imperial Academy. He wanted to make sure they were okay.

Ling An instantly saw the condition of the three disciples. Some of their bodies froze because they could not stand the tremendous snowstorm. Xiao Ziya approached the three of them.

"Senior Yin Yifeng please slide to the next seat." said Xiao Ziya who wanted to sit between the three of them. Without refusing or asking Xiao Ziya for a reason, Yin Yifeng immediately moved to the seat next to her and Xiao Ziya sat down on the chair of hers.

The air that was so warm they could feel, Xiao Ziya used the immortal black flames that she had to warm her senior's body. Slowly the cold is replaced by a very comfortable warm air. Finally they understood by themselves why Xiao Ziya wanted to sit amongst the three of them.

"Trimakasin miss Ziya has made our bodies all feel warmer" said Xu Yuan who felt very helped. Although to Xiao Ziya it was only a small thing but to his senior what Xiao Ziya did was very helpful.

"There is no need to bother with me." said Xiao Ziya briefly because he was focusing on controlling the amount of energy in the black fire he was releasing.

"How can an expert like a lady be an outer disciple." said the person who arrived at them, that person was Min Funze. He felt that the Qiyu Imperial Academy had wasted an extremely outstanding talent from Xiao Ziya.

"What if Miss Ziya becomes a student of Binzo Academy" said Min Funze again who wants to recruit Xiao Ziya to become a student of Binzo Imperial Academy.

Xiao Ziya understood what Min Funze's panataua was forcing him to offer only a better position for Xiao Ziya. But for Xiao Ziya the Qiyu Imperial Academy was already like his second home even though many disciples were upsetting him. Besides that he also had to keep the territory of the Qiyu Empire safe.

"I know the good intentions of elder Min Funze, but I'm sorry I can't accept it. Although my position at the Qiyu Imperial Academy is only a first-rate outer student but I enjoy the process" Xiao Ziya said, declining the offer.

Min Funze could only sigh, nor could he impose his will on Xiao Ziya since he had the right to determine his own future.

"Then I say retreat" said Panatua Min Funze who immediately left because he also had other business.

"You are beautiful" said a beautiful female toddler who ran towards Xiao Ziya and directly hugged Xiao Ziya's legs tightly.

"Well see who's coming, Princess Ruhi misses Ziya jiejie?" said Xiao Ziya who immediately carried Zo Ruhi's daughter with pleasure, perhaps Xiao Zoe would be happy to meet Princess Zo Ruhi

Other than Princess Zo Ruhi there were several members of the Binzo Empire who had come to approach Xiao Ziya. And Xiao Ziya could recognize their faces because they had met before.

"Finally I can meet again with miss, since the lady has helped my daughter, I intend to invite the lady to the imperial palace later tonight." said Queen Zo Binji who invited Xiao Ziya to come to his palace.

Xiao Ziya understood the max of the queen not only wanted to invite him to dinner but he also wanted to discuss the assault that happened to the queen a few days ago.

"Well I will come, but I must return to the inn first with the others" said Xiao Ziya who bowed her body slightly, when Xiao Ziya was about to take down Princess Zo Ruhi from her carriage the beautiful toddler refused.

"It looks like my daughter wants to come with the lady, sorry if it will be troublesome" said queen Zo Binji who gave Xiao Ziya permission to bring her little daughter.

Xiao Ziya smiled and immediately left while carrying princess Ruhi. Princess Ruhi hugged Xiao Ziya very tightly she looked so happy when she was near Xiao Ziya. The aura released by Xiao Ziya was very familiar to the little toddler.

"Alright Ruhi will join the innkeeping jiejie. Later jiejie will clean up so the beautiful princess Ruhi will have to wait in jiejie's bed." Xiao Ziya said as she walked towards her inn.

The king now approached his queen and asked why the queen had entrusted their little daughter to a stranger they had just met today. The queen whispered something to the king so that King Zo Linzu could understand why his wife believed so strongly in the gadia that came from the Qiyu Empire.

"It looks like Zen must also thank the girl" said King Zo Linzu who felt that Xiao Ziya had helped his family a lot.
