'What's wrong with them? Or is this plaque...?'
Uncertainly, Crown Prince Lail confusedly swept his gaze around the silent grand hall, his sight catching the weird expressions on the magicians' faces.
As everyone in the main hall dumbfoundedly stood frozen in shock and astonishment, Crown Prince Lail slowly withdrew his hand, putting the plaque back into his long sleeves.
Instantly, the frozen audience returned to their senses, strange expressions on their faces as they reevaluated their opinion and changed their attitude with the young man before them.
Because he was not only a man with a backing behind him. He was a man with the whole academy as his backing!
The Amayan Mistland Academy was founded more than a thousand years ago by the strongest and most powerful magician in the entire seven realms.
This magician did not only build the dimensional space where the Amayan Mistland Academy was situated, he also built its three moons, buildings, trees and vegetation, and black sea.
For the seven realms, he created the teleportation portals and portal activation spells with the elemental stones, allowing the magic stored in the stones to activate the spells built in the portal, processing transportation from one land to another, and from one realm to another, within few a heartbeats.
He laid down the foundation of drawing elemental magic into one's body, skin, blood, bones, marrows, and meridians, fortifying the physical body to bear the burden of magic usage on the mind and spirit.
And most of all, he laid down the system of grading and categorizing the talent level and magic type of prospective magicians within the seven realms.
Through the system of ranking, magic talents came in three levels, weak, ordinary, and strong. Weak being the weakest, ordinary the medium, and strong the top.
Weak magic users did not have great talent and learned magic to help facilitate the growth and speed of vegetation and foliage, shield against strong winds and breezes, create warm fires in the middle of cold nights, and summon streams of water or other abilities to assist in their everyday life.
Ordinary magic users had talents that were not too weak or too strong, and usually learned magic to grow plants and vegetations, build buildings, create shields against storms and winds, create flames to fight against cold winters, and create lakes or other abilities that assist in everyday affairs and benefit their locality.
And strong magic users had talents that made them stand out from the rest of the magicians. They were individuals who controlled the elemental magics and used them to not only grow and create but also remodel and reshape whole landscapes.
They used their ability to fight in battles with other strong magic practitioners like magical beasts and wielders, as well as spirits and dark magic users.
To determine the level of their magic talents, the Stone Veins were usually used on selection days.
The Stone Veins were aquiline or grey crystalline jagged stones naturally formed in the heart of realms and carried the elemental magic of all seven elements.
Whenever a prospective magic wielder's magic level needed to be determined, they were placed in the stone vein testing halls, where the stones embedded into the floor, walls, and ceiling lit up in the color of the tester's magical element and level of talent.
Elements came in the colors of red, blue, green, brown, yellow, white, and black. Red representing fire, blue for water, green for wood, brown for earth, yellow for air, and white for light, black for darkness.
Once a wielder lights up one of those elements, the colors then stabilize and strengthen before glowing softly in either red, orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, and violet; where red and orange signified weak talents, yellow and green signify ordinary talents, and blue, purple, signify strong talents.
Violet signified a supreme talent, which had never been seen within the entire seven realms after the disappearance of the founder of the Amayan Mistland Academy.
And the round aquiline blue plaque Crown Prince Lail took out was a seven elemental magical plaque that was widely known within the seven magical academies of the seven realms.
It was a symbol that represented the founder of the Mistland Academy and any individual carrying it would be automatically enrolled into any academy without any selection or evaluation of talent.
As long as the individual carrying the plaque desired it, even if they had no magical talent, they would still be accepted into the academy.
Because the plaque could not be faked and produced an oppressive aura, as it reacted to the bloodline of the carrier and was specifically reserved for the descendants of the founder.
This meant, since Crown Prince Lail was able to hold the plaque without any adverse reaction, then he was a direct descendent of the Amayan Mistland Academy's first magician and founder!
And the academy could be considered as his second home.
"You....you...you are a descendant of the founder?"
The white-haired man could no longer control his turbulent emotions, his heart almost racing out of his chest from the uncontainable excitement as he shouted in shock.
To think that a descendant of the founder appeared within their academy! If the other six magic academies found out, they would be throwing up blood from envy and jealousy.
As the direct bloodline of the founder, the descendant's magical talent, without a doubt, would be much higher than other individuals. And even if that were not the case, just the glory from having a descendant of the founder within their academy would be enough to turn the other academies green with envy.
As the envious and jealous expressions of the six elders of the Seven Order surfaced in his mind, the dean of the Amayan Mistland Academy roughly fell into his silver seat, laughing uncontrollably, as glee, anticipation, and expectation glowed brightly in his dark eyes.
'Hahaha.....just wait. The magical competition between the seven realms this year would be a great spectacle.'
"Young friend Lail, it is great that you came to our academy with the round aquiline plaque in your hands. Otherwise, we would have turned you back. As a native of the Amayan Empire, it is only right that you join the Amayan Mistland Academy. Come, come. I will personally help you get settled in."
The Elders of the Council's eyes were also glowed with delight before changing into resentment as they watched the dean hijack the young man before their very eyes, his unconcealed gleeful and elated expression pricking their eyes.
"Dean, why do you trouble yourself with such miscellaneous affairs'? Let me guide our young friend Lail around the academy. I make certain that he not only gets settled, but also gets everything he needs to get started on his lessons right away."
No longer able to stand still, a green-haired elder instantly blocked the dean's path with a respectful look on his face, his hands pulling the Crown Prince towards himself.
"Law elder, introducing new students is not within your jurisdiction. Why do you not leave such matters to us? As recruitment elders, it is our responsibility to show new recruits around the academy grounds." Two blue-haired elders with similar appearances, stepped forth before the law elder could even move, snatching Crown Prince Lail towards them.
"No way! Even if introducing new students is not within my responsibilities, I am more than happy to show young friend Lail around. There is no need to trouble you two elders."
"Come on. I am the dean and I say that I am showing young Lail around!"
"You can not be so unreasonable, dean. Just think! What would the prospective magicians of our academy think of you once they see you showing a new kid around? Your dignity and your image would be tarnished!" All three elders exclaimed together, their faces flushed red with unrestrained anxiety.
"What dignity? What image? Even the greatest dignity of a dean cannot compare to the glory of showing young Lail around. Are you trying to scam me?" The dean hollered in anger as he fiercely glared at the three sheepish elders.
They just did not want to give the dean the chance to be alone with the young man. Because if he used the opportunity to snatch the kid away and took him in as his personal disciple, then it would be too late for them to cry!
"Honestly speaking, all of you are quite busy individuals and should not bother yourselves with a small matter like showing a new student around. This is a task for an unoccupied individual like myself. Let me do the honors, good elders." A smiling black-haired elder stepped in between the three arguing elders and dean, volunteering himself for the task.
The ten white-clothed escorts and the other eight students watched in stunned silence as they watched the respected elders of their academy fight over showing a kid around.
Before either of the four elders could reply, the black-haired elder grabbed the Crown Prince's wrist and disappeared with him in the next instant.
There was a momentary silence in the main hall as all the elders and students stared at the empty spot in disbelief.
'Did the punishment elder just kidnap the new kid?'
Was the thought ringing in their mind.
"Ahhh! Mu Guan Lei, let me never see your face again, otherwise...!"
In the next heartbeat, the dean hollered at the top of his lungs, his face flushing red with anger and fiery as he violently trembled, the powerful resentment radiating off his body making it seem as if it was not a student but his dear wife that was kidnapped.
