The ten minutes countdown was over, with every students staying with their groups.
"It's time" Caden mumbled as he saw the magic circle beneath their feets shimmered.
The group vanished from their surroundings, their bodies dissolving into a swirling vortex of colors and light.
The air seemed to ripple and distort, as if reality was bending to accommodate their passage.
As the colors cleared, the group reappeared, their forms solidifying on the shores of a remote island.
The island rose up from the sea, it's green forests and white sandy beaches greeting the group like a welcoming committee.
"This is completely different from before" a student spoke out. And the rest nodded as it was true.
Compared to the island they found themselves in, during the first stage. This island was more beautiful.
The sky above was a brilliant blue, the sun shining down on the group with a warmth that was both comforting and disorienting.
