naughty girls should be punished

In a garden covered with the trees of Green Heaven flowers.

Six youths, four males and two females were vigorously practicing their techniques.

Haaaaaaa! Haaaaaaa!

They punched the air rhythmically to stimulate the mana inside their veins helping in increasing the strength of their body.

"Focus on feeling the flow of mana and try to create momentum," Harmon instructed In a profound tone, fully acting like an expert.

"Jeaquikine stop gawking, I know you are the newest of the group but that doesn't mean you can dilly-dally." Harmon sternly reprimanded the newest intern of the group who had just awakened a couple of days ago.

Hearing the stern voice of the white-haired man in front of her Jeaquiline sheepishly smiled, she wasn't used to such seriousness and hard work.

Jeaquiline was a happy-go-lucky girl, doing whatever came to her mind. However, out of nowhere her life had completely changed.

"Waking up early in the morning, doing these boring exercises," Jeaquiline muttered sulkily while tucking the strands of hair behind her ears.

"But who is this black-haired youth." Jeaquiline looked at the black-haired youth sitting under the shade of Green Heaven tree talking to a man in dark blue robes with a lazy expression on his face.

Even senior Harmon seemed to be respectful toward him.

"Wizard, what do you think? Can you do something about it?" Dawn asked the wizard while frowning.

"It is too early to say anything," Wizard spoke while stroking his beard.

Dawn nodded and didn't say anything. He didn't have much expectations to begin with.

While discussing about the topics related to his talents. He had mentioned the Green Heaven fist technique and how pathetic the technique was.

At that moment wizard had claimed he could modify the technique and improve its efficiency.

Dawn was sceptical about the wizard's claim. After all, how can a wizard who didn't even know how to speak some days ago modify the technique?

But, he still decided to give him a chance as it wasn't harming him in any way.

Wizard didn't wait for Dawn's reaction and went back to his Research laboratory, yeah his laboratory. The wizard considered that place as his and didn't allow anyone inside other than Dawn.

Suddenly, Dawn shook his head and got up. Did he already forget about the cataclysmic threat that he was facing?

The Rouge Empyrean might appear and kill him in the next moment.

In a huge huge forest, Dawn and his group of trusted subordinates were slowly making their way to the biggest city in the Barren Wasteland.

Barren Wasteland was huge but as its name implied it was completely barren, its soil devoid of minerals. However, tiny pockets of land that were fertile could still be found now and then, where small tribes like the Green Heaven Tribe built their city.

There were uncountable numbers of Stone grade tribes scattered across the Barren Wasteland and above them stood the Destar tribe, ruling the entire region from the Destar city.

"Hey! Dawn, where are we going?" Raven questioned in an excited tone while looking at her surroundings curiously.

This was her first time when she was going out of the tribe therefore she was excited about everything.

"What's that?" Raven's eyes suddenly shone, she hurriedly rushed toward a bush filled with pink fruits without even waiting for Dawn's response.

Dawn looked at the annoying girl from the corner of his eyes and thought.

"How beautiful would it be if a tiger came from the bush and ate this girl."

"Alright, everyone stop! We will rest here for some time before beginning the final phase of our journey." Harmon glanced at the group of soldiers carrying the huge bags on their backs and announced in a loud voice.

Hearing his words the soldiers sighed with relief and gently placed the bag that was filled with Vitality Apples to the ground.

The soldiers were really tired after walking for 200 hundred kilometers without a break while carrying the heavy load on their backs.

Some of them started to eat their food while chit-chatting.

"Stay vigilant! According to the information that we have, this forest is filled with Thunder Tigers." Harmon announced in a stern voice after seeing that the soldiers had relaxed, he couldn't allow them to forget that they were in a deadly area filled with monsters.

Just as he was about to speak further a loud scream of a girl resounded in the forest.

"Ahhhhh!"

Raven screamed and hurriedly retreated. She was happily eating the fruit, when suddenly out of nowhere a tiger attacked her.

"Raven! You stupid little girl, how many times will I have to warn you not to cause trouble."

Harmon rushed in Raven's direction while holding the sword in his hand.

Dawn looked at this scene with a strange smile on his face and didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Thankfully, the danger wasn't great as the tiger was relatively weaker. Harmon easily took care of it.

However, it was a warning for the group to stay alert as they were definitely in the territory of thunder tigers.

Well, Dawn and his group didn't have to wait for long as after 15 minutes his group was surrounded by a pack of Thunder Tigers from all directions led by a Black tiger.

The black tiger was huge, larger than a two-storey house with thunder crackling around its body.

Gulp! Harmon swallowed his saliva and looked at the Black Tiger nervously.

Raven dared not breathe loudly; she was frozen like a statue.

"Mommy! Help me, I will listen to you and will never go out again." Raven remembered the nagging of her mother when she told her about her plan to go out with Dawn's group.

"Hmmmm!" Dawn looked at the hundreds of Thunder Tigers surrounding him with interest. He welcomed all the free exp that came his way and allowed him to level up.

But he was confused by one thing, how did they manage to track them down so easily?

He didn't have to think for long, Dawn easily got his answer when he followed the Black Tiger's line of sight.

The Black Tiger ignored the weak humans and greedily eyed the bags on the human's backs.
