The Alps Institute had always been ranked at the top of the world's magic organizations. Since it was attached to the Holy Judgment Court and the Heresy Judgment Court, it did not represent any country, even though it was located in Switzerland. Every institute in the World College Tournament had to represent a country, and since they did not, the Alps Institute never took part in it.

The institute could not achieve greatness in the World College Tournament, but it did not impact the reputation of the mysterious institute located in the isolated environment of the Alps much.

Most importantly, the Alps Institute was a women's school. The dean, headmaster, professors, mentors, and even the cleaners, temporary workers, and postal workers were all women!

The Parthenon Temple prioritized women because they were usually more talented with the Blessing Element than men. Their leader had the title Goddess, but in truth, they did not necessarily reject male Healers or Mages with the Blessing Element. The Parthenon Temple was willing to recruit anyone with talent, but statistically, women were just a lot better with the Healing and Blessing Elements.

The Alps Institute was different. They were a bunch of women's rights activists. Almost every student from the institute despised men as a result of the brainwashing there. However, they did have an excuse to despise men, since most of the other institutes that requested a visit to the Alps Institute for an exchange program ended up losing duels to the Alps Institute.

The Alps Institute welcomed every institute and faction that wanted to visit them. Since they were women's rights activists, they could not afford to just live in the mountains and seclude themselves from the world. They often approved the requests of the other institutes to visit them, in order to show these institutes their true strength!

Mo Fan and Zhao Manyan had no idea the Alps Institute was a girl's school. They simply assumed every institute had a lot of energetic young women with young bodies and ideas, especially in foreign countries! The sunlight at dawn sprinkled on the bed sheets covered in marks from the intense 'battle' the night before, yet they would not bother asking for one another's name… such was life!

"What are we waiting for? Let's go! As a senior at the Pearl Institute, I'm quite eager to show such a proud institute what our country and our institute has!" Zhao Manyan said impatiently.

His mind was full of fair and slender legs, huge busts, and alluring curves, the fragrance of women's long hair lingering in the school grounds, and the seductive giggles of the women...

"(Cough cough), it won't be a problem to visit them, but we'll have to follow their rules," Professor Li said.

"What rules?" Mo Fan asked.

"Well, every man has to wear a magic bracelet. The bracelet will track our location in the school at all times, to prevent us from entering the areas we aren't supposed to," Professor Li said.

Professor Li had been here many times. Ever since Mo Fan, Zhao Manyan, and Mui Nujiao had earned a great reputation during the World College Tournament, the Pearl Institute's ranking in the world had been rising. Many students from other countries wanted to come to the Pearl Institute as exchange students and study at the Institute for a short period of time.

The Alps Institute had sent a group of students to the Pearl Institute recently. It was their turn to pay the Alps Institute a visit in return.

The truth was, the Alps Institute was better than the Pearl Institute in almost every area. The Alps Institute would not bother wasting their time with a school like the Pearl Institute, if it was not for their achievements during the World College Tournament!

It was the main reason why the leaders of the Pearl Institute were treating Mo Fan like their grandson-in-law. The victory during the World College Tournament was extremely important for the school!

"What kind of a rule is that? Isn't that restricting our personal freedom?" Mo Fan complained, displeased.

"Yeah, we are here for a friendly exchange, why are they treating us like thieves instead?" Zhao Manyan grumbled.

"You have to follow the local customs when you enter a village. Even us professors have to wear them!" Professor Zheng replied.

The group went past the Geneva River and slowly approached the Alps. The end of the lake was a clear meandering river, flowing across a few mountains and valleys. It was like a long silver trail left by a fairy that had descended upon the mundane world, giving the Alps a beautiful and elegant appearance.

A pavilion made of glazed stone stood at the base of the mountain. The colorful glaze gave the delicate structure an artistic appearance, while the glass of the pavilion was polished enough to reflect the ice and snow of the ridges in the distance.

Inside the pavilion were some felt hats and magic coats. The shelves and walls were filled with symbolic magic equipment. There were some impressive collectibles, yet they were placed in the pavilion at the base of the mountain unguarded, as if there were no thieves in the country...

"If it was in our country, this place would be packed with people in a few days, and they would most likely tear the place down, too," a male mentor in the group, Shi Junsheng, observed.

Shi Junsheng was Professor Zheng's student. He had graduated with excellence from the Pearl Institute some time ago. Professor Zheng was letting him stay at the Institute to train him further. He had brought him along so he could learn from the experience.

Most of the people in the group were not just normal students. In academic terms, they were mostly postgraduate and Ph.D. students. They were a lot stronger than students who had not yet graduated from the Institute. They were even qualified to serve as mentors to the normal students.

"The comparison doesn't make sense at all. The population of this country is lower than a single province in our country. The population in Shanghai alone is higher than the total population of Switzerland. Only wild animals will pass by a place like this, it's unlikely for normal people to come here..." Professor Li's granddaughter, Li Ximei, spoke up.

"If their population is so low, they might even stumble into their own relatives if they are hooking up with someone for a one night stand," Zhao Manyan murmured.

Mo Fan burst out laughing. He was utterly impressed by Zhao Manyan's one-track train of thought, yet it was actually quite reasonable!

Mu Bai immediately looked disdainful. It was such a shame to be teamed up with a person like him!

"There are bracelets here, let's put them on. They will send someone to pick us up soon," Professor Li said.

They went inside the pavilion and saw a bunch of magic bracelets on display. They looked like the bands of a watch, with very simple Zulu straps. It was difficult to tell how the bracelet could track their location. Perhaps there was a chip inside each of them?
