Cultivators at the Wizarding Academy

Chapter 160 The Four Beauties of the Academy This Academic Year

The presence of powerful beings in the Holy Realm is far more intimidating than elite legions.

It symbolizes the ultimate level that the human race can reach. By constantly changing to new bodies, one can greatly extend their lifespan and peak period until the moment their soul decays.

No matter the schemes or tricks, ambushes and traps are meaningless. Even if one dies, one can be resurrected and return to exact revenge.

While its influence on the main battlefield may be limited, its ability to carry out assassinations and special operations is enough to make any ruler wary.

No one wants to get entangled with an enemy they can't defeat; usually, peaceful negotiation is the only option. Thus, a strategic balance exists between families possessing Saint-level experts.

Conversely, elite legions become mere expendable resources. Once eliminated, the problem can be solved once and for all.

In a world where the strong reign supreme, the existence of ordinary armies is often merely that of pawns used to maintain territorial order…

Count Northend got everything he wanted, and a smug smile appeared on his round face.

He looks to be around thirty years old, but he is actually more than twice that age.

Many nobles regularly use transformation magic to regain their youth until it is too late, when their cells have reached their limit and their external appearance completely collapses.

The next point of discussion shifted to the offensive aspect.

A swift and decisive victory was the consensus among everyone present. The goal was to quickly and decisively crush the enemy with overwhelming force, avoiding a war of attrition that could give external powers an opportunity to intervene.

It's best to complete the annexation of territory before they can react.

"Lord Northrend, has a timetable been set for mobilizing troops?"

"I think if we can catch the Belland family off guard within three days, we can minimize our losses."

The armies of the five noble families are not under a single command, and as an allied force, they agree to launch an attack at the same time.

The presence of three rare Saint-level experts gave everyone great confidence, making them feel that even if the Belland family had some trump cards, they were not worth paying too much attention to.

The apparent strength has already created a qualitative leap...

Royal Capital, Violet Academy, Arena.

As the monthly ranking battle approaches, the competition between the various departments is becoming more and more frequent.

The ordinary students debated the relative strengths and weaknesses of the seeded players. Guts, the second-ranked player in the Warrior Division, was a name frequently mentioned.

Rumor has it that he possesses an inscribed sword bestowed upon him by the Blue Rose family, which will undoubtedly greatly enhance his strength, in addition to providing him with more abundant cultivation resources.

Many people believe that the chief of the Warriors Division may be replaced.

Secondly, another follower of the Blue Rose family, Aglaia, is said to have completed the formal class assessment, and her strength should not be underestimated.

She is more popular for her beauty.

Despite being a commoner and dressed simply, she won the honor of being one of the Four Beauties, and even seemed to be ranked first!

The rankings are based on votes from enthusiastic participants.

The four beauties of this academic year are Aglaia, Taiya, Qiye, and Greenfield.

If we exclude faculty and staff and include all women, Principal hope undoubtedly tops the list year after year.

With her perfect looks, absolute strength, and illustrious family background, she was destined to be a goddess above the clouds, an untouchable flower on a high mountain, revered by all.

I wonder which hero will win the favor of the headmaster.

Tai'an suddenly sneezed and rubbed his nose.

Several potted plants, unlike ordinary flowers, have been added to Youmu's office. These colorful trumpet flowers seem to have their own consciousness; their slender stems twist like human bodies, and they even spray pollen at people, making them seem more like a plant-like life form.

"An-kun! You're getting cuter and cuter!" Youmu smiled and handed him a daffodil.

The beautiful green-haired woman, dressed in a white court gown, remained as stunning as ever. She should have been enjoying the adulation of many men, but instead, she was humbly trying to win over a young boy.

"Mentor, I'm very busy. Get to the point quickly!" The boy said arrogantly, crossing his arms and raising his chin.

"The daily lessons are too easy for you. Would you like to learn something new? I can teach you," Youmu said, offering a tempting offer.

Tai'an raised his eyelids: "What knowledge do you intend to teach me?"

"Are you interested in Occlumency and Mind Reading?" Youmu asked, smoothing out the wrinkles in her skirt.

"This seems interesting..."

"Then sit down here, I'll teach you..."

Just as the boy was about to get up, seeing the fairy's invitation waiting for him, someone suddenly pushed open the office door.

Yinyue barged in without warning, her small fists raining down on Tai'an's shoulders.

"Xiao An, don't provoke the demon, she might really be unable to resist eating you."

"Little girl, don't talk nonsense. I'm a half-elf just like you," Youmu emphasized with displeasure.

It is precisely because of these similarities that Silver Moon is more wary of Youmu, knowing full well that forest fairies are absolutely unable to resist Xiao An's temptation! They crave life force far more than moon fairies.

"Xiao An, let's go back and take a nap early." The silver-haired little imp clung tightly to the boy's arm, displaying an annoying attitude of wanting to eat alone.

The green-haired forest fairy frowned.

Tai'an was indeed quite tired. He had been staying up late every night practicing Life Weaving, almost eliminating his normal sleep time, only managing to take a short nap at noon: "Mentor! Let's talk about it later! I have other things to do recently."

"Sure! I'm free anytime. You can come find me at Room 7 of the Eternal Rose dormitory if you're free in the evening."

Youmu maintained her charming smile as she watched the two leave. The moment the office door closed, she eagerly stood up, walked to the other side of the desk, and bent down.

He gently ran his fingers over the dense water droplets and brought them to his nose. The intense life force caused the green-haired fairy to flush as if she were intoxicated by the oxygen, her face turning a deep red.

"So you're the legendary walking Tree of Life. Your pure life essence is truly wondrous..."

News of Tai'an's passing of the Spellcaster's Guild's official class test spread throughout the Wizard Tower. In just one month since the start of the semester, he had accomplished what many graduates had not, undeniably becoming the top student among the first-year students.

While gaining more freedom of action, they also unexpectedly assumed responsibilities.

Take the place of the Wizarding Division in the monthly ranking battle!

Generally speaking, monthly exams are divided into two types. One is an internal ranking exam within each department, which has no skill restrictions and everyone must participate. The other is a ranking battle, which requires each department to send seeded players with the strength of a formal rank or above to compete.

Those who secure top spots will receive access to college resources and privileges. Common benefits include a large number of credits, free access to the library, priority admission to faculty positions, and exemption from military service.

This includes making a note on the student's record. It will make it easier to find a job after graduation. Many noble families are happy to select students who rank high in the ranking battles as followers. Many adventurer groups are eager to train talented newcomers. City guards, the Night's Watch, and public service positions requiring a certain level of skill will all give them priority in recruitment.

I adjust my sleep schedule about every two weeks.

New chapters are usually published first, then polished and typos corrected.
