To get inside the library in the Akademiya, start from the teleport waypoint in the east. Simply go up the stairs and go straight until you see the door, then head inside. The treasure chest can be found immediately as you enter!

"The flowers in the pond are blooming, with watery pearls there lingering."
Answer to Riddle 4 is located in the small pond underneath the Sanctuary of Surasthana. Simply teleport to the waypoint then immediately drop down to the pond. Open the floating box in the edge of the water to find the answer to the riddle "The flowers in the pond are blooming."

"Please go to the front door of the Temple of Knowledge at noon."
Simply talk to Drasus west of Sumeru City to find the answer to Riddle 5. The Temple of Knowledge is the Sanctuary of Sarasthana, and you can only find him during noon. Change the time around 12:00 PM to talk to him and complete the puzzle!
