Episode 1

500 Years ago the Enchanted Memorial Pillar started to collapsed and the encased immemorial Demon Sword within it was released.

The Demon sword has the power to summon every swordsman in the land for a battle to the death.  This caused so much upheaval in the lives of ordinary people that the dominion was in chaos.

Emperor Cang did his best to end the war but perished with his soldiers in the battle.  Before his death, he willed to find his successor.

Empress Huang, the wife of Emperor Xi, was the Sword Guard Lady, intervened at the chaotic ongoing war of swords.  She was able to temporarily seal the demon sword back into the enchanted memorial pillar.  However, the task was too great which caused Lady Huang’s death.

Emperor Xi was so aggrieved with the death of his beloved wife.  He blamed Emperor Cang for it.  He was bent on revenge that he turned to the dark side and become the demon emperor.

Years later the Jiuhua School was established to train cultivators and find the successor of Emperor Cang.

Jiuhua has the Four School which accepts students after undergoing rigorous examinations.  However, as what can be expected, there are rules for the rich and rules for the not so rich.

The elite families have a recommended quota of up to 4 students who are guaranteed admittance.

However, these students are looked down upon as they are deemed to be not good enough to have foregone to take the exam.  One of these students was supposed to be Xin Wentian, who was known for having a blind pulse.

An open pulse could attain levels of cultivation, just like Bai Qiu Xue.

Bai Qiu Xue was unofficially engaged to Wen Tian, who helped her opened her pulse through acupuncture.  She was able to break into the third heaven and reach the star soul.

The experience gave her thirst to go even further to fourth heaven, which Wentian discouraged her to do as she was not strong enough to do so yet.

Her ambition was such that when her Uncle Cheng told her that Wentian was not good enough for her as he has blind pulse, Qiu Xue was easily convinced.

But her young sister overheard that Uncle Cheng ordered that Wentian should be killed.

She tried to warn Wentian who by then was put under house arrest.

Wentian managed to get out but he was chased until he ended up falling from a cliff.

Meanwhile, a young infanta entered the court of the king to inform him that her father was taking a sick-day. LOL

The ministers were really scandalised that a woman entered the court. They said that it was an abomination to have a female in court.

But the infanta said to chill because there was precedence before her, they should look in their annals.

Anyway, the king is very ill and the crown prince it too young to sit on the throne so the Prince Empire Frontier was made as the Prince Regent.

The Four School examination is about to happen.

The infanta was bored at home so she ran away to take the Four School exam.

Olivia Wang looks lovely in her costume.  It really suits her, no pun intended. LOL

Episode 2

There are four elite families in the empire: the Qin, Mo, Yi, and Bai.

An astrologer/astronomer looking up the sky foretold that the Yi Country will never be at peace again.

Wentian, meanwhile, was able to find a haven in a cave where he recuperated by someone opened his blind pulse.

He was the successor to Emperor Cang that everyone had been looking for.

The guard of Star Soul Stone guided him to connect with the power of the stone which has imbedded itself to Wentian’s heart.

But for Wentian to gain its power or for the stone to accept him, Wentian had to fight a golden bull.

Wentian through his cultivation managed to defeat the bull which crumbled into fragments and created a golden hammer.

The master of the stone, Master Hei told Wentian that he had reached the 5th Heaven level.  He strongly advised Wentian to make sure never to reveal to anyone what had just happened for his own protection and of the stone.

He also gave a magical scripture to Wentian that he must learn from and protect at all costs.

Misfortune and happiness are related.

• Master Hei

It was the exam day for the Four School: Holy Wind School, Royal School, Seven Starter School and Jiuhua.

There are several attendees who would like to compete and climb the legendary Overlord Terrace.  Only very few can go up the top and even fewer who can bang the gong.

The students started up the climb most of them stopped at level six but Bai Qiu Xue managed up to level 10 and then she was forced down.

Despite not finishing, Qiu Xue was still much lauded.  He uncle was so proud and announced that the engagement made between the Qin and the Bai is now null and void.  Qiu Xue could not be married to the inferior Qin.

Among the spectators, was Qing Chen who was curious about what was going on.  Also, there was Wentian.

Wentian revealed himself and told the Baicheng that he can insult him but not the Qin.  He then said that he will climb up the Overlord Terrace.

His Qin foster father begged him not to do is as it could be fatal for him with his blind pulse.

Wentian, of course, knew better and proceeded to climb.  Everyone was surprised when they saw him climbing each step in a fairly comfortable manner until he got to the top level.  Suddenly he was not moving.

Qing Chen who was watching from a balcony decided to give him a push by melding with his mind.  She was like a breath of fresh air that Wentian got destructed from what was holding him to move.  With a few more steps with the beautiful Qing Chen he was by the gong.

Now, everyone told him that he could not bang the gong as it was beyond his experience and ability.

But Wentian bang the gong anyway, the decibel was mindblowing that the people around the terrace where affected.

Wentian was wondering who the woman who came into his ‘mind’.

Wentian was offered by the four schools of a place in their class but Wentian opted to go to Jiuhua, which did not offer a place to Qiu Xue because of her attitude.

Episode 3

I am beginning to love this drama.

The Crown Prince was under house arrest so escaped to Jiuhua School where he met Wentian, Qingchen, and Fan Le.

Episode 4

It was the final exam for the students which took place at the enchanted Dark Forest.

Wentian and Qingchen were getting closer but almost sabotaged by Qiu Xue who tried to play the weak maiden and fell on Wentian’s arms seen by Qingchen.

Qingchen did not disturb them but an assassin was waiting for her.

On her first scream, Wentian was there recuing her completely forgetting Qiu Xue.

Wentian promised Qingchen that he will always protect her.

It seems Qingchen has a very important role in the Jiuhua School.  The school dean said that it was probably time to recruit Qingchen to be a night watcher.

Wentian and Qingchen’s group had been challenged by the other section at the Jiuhua school.

Episode 5

Qiu Xue is not bad enough, Bai Qing, her sister, had sneaked herself at the Jiuhua school to see Wentian.

Wentian made a beautiful golden dagger for Qingchen.  It was a bit of a fail for the prop because it was so obvious that it was made of plastic.

The sweet Bai Qing had turned into an annoying girl who clung to Wentian all the time and who got jealous of Qingchen.

She saw that Wentian and Qingchen having a sweet moment so she decided to go home in a huff and was attacked by a demon vampire.

Episode 6

Qingchen was taken ill because she was somehow connected to the Enchanted Pillar.

Her family knew hat her time is nigh but they won’t tell her the secret.

Ruohuan did well during the contest and Fan Le fell under her spell.

It was the Galaxy Conundrum test. Wentian failed it at first but Qingchen had come back to the college and help him to see the bigger picture.

Then he got it.

The poor crown prince is hunted down by soldiers, they would have trapped him if his friend Boozer did not suddenly materialised.

Boozer told him that he had to take the crown so he would not be hounded all the time.

The CP told Boozer that he does not have any interest of becoming the king.

Meanwhile, poor Qing had not been really missed despite disappearing.

Grandpa sacrificed himself tot he enchanted pillar so everyone could have more time.

Episode 7

Grandpa sacrificed himself to the enchanted pillar which was felt by the masters at Jiuhua School.

Fan Le invited Qingyan and Wentian to go drinking.  Later on the CP turned up as well. They drank to each other and then the next thing they knew was they were fighting for their lives.

Fan Le died and so did the CP.  Wentian took all the arrows meant for Qingyan.  Then they woke up from the same dream.

Qingyan realised that they were in the Dream Forest.

Meanwhile, the missing Bai Qin was in the cave, hostage of the Demon Emperor of the Night.

He told her that he was not going to hurt her.  In fact, he was going to help her save her beloved Wentian.  He then gave her a jar of medication to remove the star soul stone form inside Wentian which the demon said was killing Wentian.

Finally, the Mo clan asked Qingyan if she wanted to join the Night Hunters and she agreed.  She had her first kill as a night hunter, it was a demon who killed a caller Man.

The freshman students are preparing for their coming annual tournament.
