Ji Dong's conjecture was correct; Dio and his team of ten were the elite from a famous higher sorcerer academy in the Northern Water Empire. In the academy, their status was like that of the students from the Academy of Heavenly Stem, Yin and Yang School. During the academy's winter break, this group of ten decided to venture into the Tri-Mountain Range.
Undoubtedly, they were exceptionally outstanding in their academy, each of them a genius among magicians of their respective element. Long-standing evaluations of their genius, coupled with their genuinely impressive abilities, inevitably led to some arrogance. They had encountered several Earth Dragons before, most of which were of the fourth or fifth order, but even so, none of the Earth Dragons could withstand these ten individuals.
