There was a burst of applause in the Hall, and then the opening ceremony came to a close.
As the time approached noon, the students were guided by their teachers to a nearby restaurant, where Academy had a feast specially prepared for freshmen.
After arriving at this large restaurant, Sylutia found that the space inside was no smaller than Hall just now. There were two large long tables, which could seat 20 people on each side, and a total of 80 students.
"Hedra classmate." The girl heard someone calling her name.
A professor in a black cloak and robe walked over. She had dark red and almost black wavy hair, and her eyes were somewhat interested and curious about the girl.
"Come here and sit at the top and middle of this long table." She pointed to the somewhat special position.
"Me?" Sylutia walked over slowly, feeling a little flattered by this position.
"That's right." The other party nodded.
There is a rather special position at the top of the two long tables. Sylutia originally thought that this position was reserved for professors or teachers, but it seems that this is not the case now.
When she came to this position, she saw a black-haired freshman also appeared at the other long table on the side. He looked about 19 years old, handsome, with a straight body, and a light green Gentian Flower pinned to his cuffs.
"That student is Spencer Pan De, who was born in the Pander Family, a famous family of Fenglun District. His family crest is "Gentian Flower"." The professor on the side introduced Sylutia.
"From now on, you two will be the co-chiefs of this class of students. In the future, many activities will be arranged and managed by you two. You will be collaborators and competitors until the end of your studies in five years."
"Okay, take your seats now."
After hearing this, Sylutia came to the table and sat down. Then the professor beside her patted her palms, and two broad shield-shaped flags hung from the air. One side was printed with light blue Gentian Flower, and the background was white like frost and snow. The other side was printed with Black Rose, and the background was as red as sunset.
These two large flags were hung behind Sylutia and Spencer Pande not far away.
"Let's start the meal now. Please feel free to choose where to sit. From now on, you will be divided into two large groups for scoring and activities. Choose the chief you like. They are the best students in this session and will also be your future leaders."
"Of course, if you feel you are more suitable for that position, you can challenge it after one year."
Each long table has 40 seats, and there are 74 students on site except for two people. This means that there are at most 40 people on one side and at least 34 people on the other side. This can keep the gap between the two parties from being too large.
Without hesitation, the other five students from Asura District walked to the table Sylutia and sat down. On the other side, the table Spencer also had many students to choose from.
Because he came from a famous family, Spencer was well-known when he was studying in "Mirne District". Most of the students from this school district chose him without hesitation.
By the time the freshmen from "Gemoxiu District" thought about it, the long table at Spencer was almost full, and they could only choose the long table at Sylutia to sit down.
After the two parties sat down, the waiters in the restaurant brought the exquisite meals one by one and put them on the long table. After opening the lid, the tempting fragrance and smell were released.
These meals are all rare delicacies of the third level. Not only are they delicious, they also have many benefits for the students present.
"Ti Wolf Blood Stewed Rabbit" is stewed sweet white rabbit meat with fresh Red Wolf blood that exudes the smell of "Blazing Sun". The essence of the blood is cleverly integrated into the rabbit meat with the skill of the chef, filtering out the manic parts, making it absorbable and gentle.
"Wind Sawdust Bread", the birch wood sawdust with "Vaulted Sky" smell is mixed into the flour and baked into bread. The sawdust Burn expands during baking to make the bread soft, and also locks the tiny bubbles with "Vaulted Sky" Aspect Power inside the bread.
"Firefly Mead", brewed by collecting firefly eggs and high-quality honey, has "Insect Moth" and Aspect Power. The amber liquid will emit the shimmer of fireflies at night, which is very beautiful.
"Purple Condensation Kernel Milk Jelly" is made from Purple Condensation Grass powder and agar. It is refreshing and delicious, and has the smell of "Emerald Nectar" Aspect Power.
If it were uncooked ingredients, eating such a mixed Aspect Power would probably cause trouble on the spot. Fortunately, the role of a chef is to make things that are difficult to eat and digest edible.
Ordinary chefs make cooked food and remove harmful toxins, while extraordinary professional chefs blend the power of Aspect Power in it so that it can be absorbed by people and have a soft nature.
Tasting this rare delicacy, the students concentrated on eating one by one and even chatted less. After all, not every student comes from a wealthy family and can easily enjoy similar food.
Sylutia looked at the small bowl "Ti Wolf Blood Stewed Rabbit" that the waiter brought for him, and took a sip of the wolf blood in it with a spoon. There was no fishy smell anymore, but a faint scent of osmanthus. Then he took a bite of the soft rabbit meat and savored it slowly.
It was really amazing. She was a little curious about how the chef did it, and wondered if she should learn more chef skills in the future.
While eating this small bowl of food, the waiter cut out pieces of "Wind Sawdust Bread" for her and put them on the plate, matching them with the small pieces of "Purple Condensation Kernel Milk Jelly" on the plate to make it taste better.
The nutrients in the wolf blood and rabbit meat enter the body, and a slight feeling of fever spreads, making Sylutia feel that her blood flow speeds up and becomes smoother. If she has cardiovascular disease, this meal will probably resolve it well and enhance the vitality of the heart and the strength of the blood vessels.
The subsequent breath of "Wind Sawdust Bread" blended into her lungs, making her feel that the air she breathed was fresh. In this state, she could probably explode faster in the battle, and her mind would be more active.
The last "Purple Condensation Kernel Milk Jelly" is gentler, nourishing every detail of the body and enhancing your physical fitness.
An hour later, the students finished eating and there was almost nothing left on the table. Many students just started chatting and getting to know the classmates around them.
"This is my first time meeting our chief. You are from Asura District. Can you tell me about it?"
"Well, it's probably like this..." The student from Asura District began to talk about the "glorious deeds" of Sylutia, including but not limited to treating Orc with brutal and cruel methods, defeating various talented challengers of the same class without losing, ruling the underground world of Asura District, purging the opposition forces, and driving out Spider Woman and other leaders.
"So he is such a terrifying and powerful person? I understand." Suddenly, the students at the table began to have some expectations for this seemingly weak girl.
Such a character is indeed not good when faced with enemies, but it is not necessarily a bad thing on one's own side. Most people still recognize the strong, because victory is far more important than kindness.
After lunch, the professor led the students to the battle Training Ground of the Academy.
"There is enough time today, Academy also supports you to conduct a Freshman Tournament to clarify your level among your peers, so that you can better improve in the future."
Sylutia Hearing this, he glanced at the professor opposite and thought about the purpose of such an event.
Probably the purpose is to allow students who are not yet familiar with each other to quickly get to know each other, and to avoid misunderstandings caused by misjudgment of strength.
"The first five rounds are drawn by lot, and each person will play against each other five times. Academy will give you different rewards based on the number of times you win."
"After that, students who have won more than 4 games will enter the next First Order stage and compete in the knockout rounds until the final winner is determined."
"In the second stage of the competition, the top eight will each receive a reward. I hope you will participate as much as possible and persist." After speaking, the professor waved his hand, and an automatic ball selection machine rose from the bottom of the steps, with many small balls marked with numbers rolling inside.
"Now you all stand in four rows and determine the numbers based on the position of your feet." She announced again.
Soon, everyone stood up, and then she started the machine. The connecting rod inside continued to rotate, driving the ball to roll.
After that, the small balls were spit out one by one, and then she began to call out the numbers on them and asked the deputy on the side to record them.
"No. 12 Hedra, versus No. 58 Muria."
Sylutia soon heard her name, and then she also noticed that Spencer Pande's number was also read out not far away.
"No. 3 Spencer Pander, versus No. 31 Vinico."
The battlefield is divided into four blocks and played simultaneously. Each game will end in about 2-4 minutes, and rarely lasts longer than 5 minutes.
Sylutia and other students were sitting in the auditorium on one side watching. She was surrounded by many students from the same group. In contrast, Spencer was in the auditorium on the opposite side. There were also many students beside him. Occasionally Sylutia could hear them mention her name.
Because there were no Asura District students in the opposite group, most of their discussions were based on speculation.
"Where did that person named Hedra come from? I've never heard of him before. Is he the descendant of a certain big shot? The school takes it so seriously." They were a little confused.
"Maybe he's a promising genius?" one student guessed.
"Nonsense, whoever comes here is not a genius. I have always been in the top five in Mirne District. I have dealt with too many geniuses."
"Although some people are very talented, no matter how high they are, they are only second-level apprentices. What profound discoveries and insights can they make at this stage? No matter how strong their combat strength is, they are only on par with the third-level Mage. Is it possible that she can defeat her opponent across two levels?" The student shook his head.
"Forget it, we will know the answer later. I think if she is not strong enough to hold the position of chief, there will be many people challenging her this year without waiting for next year."
Not long after, the battle of the previous few people ended, and it was Spencer's turn to come on the stage. The Vinico he fought was from "Gemoxiu District", who happened to be a member of the group Sylutia.
The students of "Gemoxiu District" are all familiar with mechanical-related things, and Vinico, who appeared this time, was no exception. He took out a small golden gun and walked onto the stage.
"The competition begins!"
When the teacher announced, Vinico immediately pointed the firegun at Spencer on the opposite side, and then the maze-like lines on the firegun began to glow, and then the bullet shot out, rushing towards the opponent like a brilliant red line.
In response, Spencer stood with a calm expression. He raised his hand, and phantom-like wall gates appeared beside him, easily blocking the bullet.
[Spell·Gate of Rodri]
"One of the seven city gates cast by Swan King, also known as Gate of Kings. It is the gate that represents the majesty of the king."
Looking at the Sturdiness door and wall that appeared on the stage, many students were surprised, because the intensity of this spell has far exceeded that of the second level. Even the official third level Mage cast is nothing more than this.
Blocked by Sturdiness's illusory door wall, Vinico tried various attacks, but to no avail. In the end, he had no choice but to admit defeat. Regarding this result, Spencer canceled the spell in a graceful manner, and then simply praised Vinico.
After receiving a round of applause, Spencer walked off the stage, followed by a competition with other students.
After a few more minutes, Sylutia heard his name.
She got down from the audience, walked towards the battlefield with many people's eyes focused on her, and then saw her opponent.
No. 58, Muria, was born in Fubna District. He previously studied at "Mirne District" and is good at high-speed swordsmanship. He is the rare close combat type Mage.
This young man looked to be in his early 18s, with flamboyant short blond hair. He walked slowly into the arena holding a scabbard in one hand, then placed his right hand on the hilt of the sword and looked at Sylutia solemnly.
"Hello, Sir." He greeted simply.
"It's not that I want to be rude if you wield a sword when we meet for the first time, but since it's a competition, please show me the strength that will convince me." He was very polite and seemed to have the temperament of a classical aristocrat.
"I understand your expectations." Sylutia nodded slightly, then stood still.
After waiting for three seconds, seeing that Sylutia still made no additional movements, Muria began to attack. Bright white light bloomed in his eyes, and then air flow surrounded his body.
[Royal Authority School·Swan Step]
Muria's sprinting figure continued to accelerate, moving in a certain arc in the field, making it difficult for the opponent to lock on. At the same time, he kept getting closer, and a faint cold air emitted from the end of the sword hilt he was holding.
As for the rare "Castle" Aspect Power Mage, Sylutia felt it was very novel, and when Muria was about to approach Sylutia's side, a thick palm appeared out of thin air and slapped him with huge force.
Facing the "hand" that suddenly appeared, Muria's pupils glowed with pale white light, and then the sword blade was instantly pulled out, and a silver-cold crack appeared on the palm, splitting it open.
[Royal Authority School·Silver Edge Blade]
After breaking through the huge palm, Muria approached Sylutia again, but this time he found that several white Flying Bird had appeared beside Sylutia, flying around.
After that, these Flying Bird flew out suddenly. His footsteps changed, and the sword blade in his hand kept cutting, quickly cutting apart these Flying Bird, and also carefully avoiding the strangulation wire connected behind Flying Bird.
It's amazing. With such a reaction speed, few of Sylutia and Asura District's peers can resist it.
Then she waved her hand again, and six silver flying swords quickly flew out from behind and rushed towards Muria.
In this fight, although Muria kept knocking away and breaking the flying sword attacks, he was unable to cut off and shatter the flying sword. After a few times, he accidentally hit two flying swords Penetration on his legs, making him lose his ability to fight.
"Hedra, win."
There was a burst of cheers at the scene, and the students present also had a preliminary understanding of the strength of Sylutia.
"So this is my style? It seems like he is just a barbaric guy who is good at fighting. I chose such a person as the chief. Maybe the professors want to sharpen me." Spencer on the opposite side shook his head slightly.
