Chapter 176 Sense of Honor
At the beginning of September, Isabella began her second year of college life.
On the eve of the first day of school, there was the opening dance and the freshman welcome ceremony organized by each class, which made Isabella feel bored.
During the class dinner, I learned that the second-year course is an advancement of the first-year course, and its purpose is to allow students to be promoted to the level of junior magic sorcerers.
I also learned from other students that this year the Oberic Empire and the world's major empire magic academies jointly held a magic swordsmanship competition...
A world-class competition called the Youth Martial Arts Swordsmanship League.
It is a sword-fighting competition held every two years in which magic is not allowed. Many students in the class are optimistic that Isabella will be able to participate.
But there is another rule. Each class can only send two students, one boy and one girl, and girls and boys compete separately.
In the second year, it is said that the theoretical courses are reduced and the practical and trial courses are increased.
The learning system of Briffin Academy is to allow students to learn all aspects of magic.
At the same time, after the start of the second year, many students meet the requirements and are able to join the academy's clubs, where they can gain more magical knowledge and practical experience after class.
To Isabella, apart from the theoretical courses in this academy, all the practical and trial courses were as simple and childish as playing house.
But in this college, I live a life of pretending to be a pig and eating a tiger. I have to be the top student in the grade and maintain my good reputation, which makes me feel more accomplished.
It feels good to be recognized by others, especially in terms of academic performance.
Isabella had been seated in the auditorium for less than two hours when most of the people in the academy spontaneously approached the second-year class of the Thunder Department to get to know Isabella again. They also knew about Isabella's academic performance and the interpersonal relationships behind her.
Since those who came to joke around kept a proper distance, Isabella didn't exclude them. After all, she was a popular figure in the academy.
Isabella stood up and went to find Milushia. Many students tactfully made way for her and looked at Isabella with burning eyes.
"…This time, you actually got there first and bought the one-year right to live in Villa No. 23."
Isabella spoke frankly to Milucia in the audience of the academy auditorium.
"I thought that room was reserved for me. If you were to live in it... I remembered that no one lives in the attic on the highest floor, so I'll give you the sovereignty of the house this time."
Milushia waved her fingers, shook her head and blinked, saying, "Which room do you want to stay in? I have the final say. Isn't there an extra independent small room on the second floor inside the main room? You can stay there! I have the final say this time! Otherwise, you can find another place to live."
Isabella asked in a dry voice, "Huh? Why are you so persistent in eating and living with me?"
Milucia didn't want to admit it at all. Isabella was now a well-known figure who was at the top of the grade. Living together and traveling together every day would let others know that Isabella was mine. As the legitimate daughter of the Earl of Leonton City, she would be able to make some name for herself no matter how well she did, right?
As for what other people think, let them guess!
Thinking of these benefits, Milushia couldn't help but smirk, stuck out her tongue, took Isabella's hand and said, "We are so close, what's wrong with living in the same room? I won't do anything weird to you..."
Isabella felt something was very off-putting in what Milushia said...
On the table… …
The seventh prince, Xia An, went on stage on behalf of the second grade and gave a speech to the freshmen.
Isabella looked towards the main stage in the auditorium and saw that Xia An's source of magic power had been upgraded to the primary second stage. In just two months, his strength had increased by two levels. For this world and even this era, this was already a rapid improvement.
Figgins came over with a fruit plate in front of Isabella and the others.
"Hehe! You didn't expect that the transformation of the Seventh Prince happened when the eldest prince got married. He received the protection of the Holy Envoy given by the Saint, and he is no longer afraid of any monster's attack! I heard that he has to face the trials of intermediate monsters every day. Three days before school started, he had reached the level of a junior second-level magician!"
The gossip from Figgins really made Milushia's eyes light up.
This person is the fastest improving person in the second grade of the academy! He has reached the second level of elementary level in two months! He has also met the Saint of the Snow Fairy Kingdom!
"What? He actually met the Saint! I'm so envious!"
Milushia's tone suddenly turned negative as she spoke: "Alas... As expected, only people of very noble status can come into contact with the legendary Saint..."
"Are you talking about the Saint?"
Mariana walked behind the three of them, holding a glass of frozen juice in her hand: "Speaking of which, do you know about the monstrous vortex and the solar core released by the Saint in the Southern Sea?"
"I saw the images that were circulated, and for the first time I felt in concrete terms what the abyss is and what it means to rub the sun with your hands!"
Mariana took a big sip of juice and continued to sigh: "In our world, there is a powerful existence like the Saint. The magic fog and black clouds, the special or king-level monsters, are they not like a fly in front of the Saint!"
Milushia nodded to indicate that this important news had already been known in Leonton City!
"I've seen it too..." Figgins echoed, "It's simply a miracle. It's not the end of the world, it's obviously the end of the monsters!"
Isabella, who was standing beside the others, had her face flushed red at this moment. She was completely immersed in the girls' praises for the saint and couldn't help but let out a strange silly smile.
It's nice to hear other people's praise. Please say more! I love it! This is the meaning of the role of "Saint"! It makes me feel so satisfied...
"Hello? Isabella, what are you giggling about?"
Milushia pinched Isabella's little face and stared at her with a naughty look, and the two of them almost talked with their faces touching.
Isabella blinked and shook her expression, then followed their topic and said seriously, "Nothing... Where do you think the Saint is from?"
"She was close to the president of the Saint's Guild, so some people speculated that the Saint might be an elf. However, her Taoist robes did not have obvious support, so some people suspected that she might be human..." Mariana talked about this, "Our family's guild network has a good understanding of the situation in the Snow Fairy Country."
"The Saint Maiden Guild has recently expanded its membership. You may find it strange to hear that the Saint Maiden Guild is mainly engaged in selling various magical equipment, and rarely purchases materials from the market! To put it bluntly, they are very good at doing business! It's not like there's fighting every day..."
A few days after the start of school, we returned to our normal routine of going to and from school.
Isabella did not plan to join any club. A few days before school started, seniors from ten clubs came to Isabella in person to discuss joining.
Isabella is more concerned about the Youth Martial Arts and Swordsmanship League.
At the podium in the classroom, the Seventh Prince's temperament was different from last year. There was a masculine toughness on his face, and his eyes were much sharper than before the holiday.
The seventh prince Xia An said: "According to convention, we will go to the arena of the Tiuwazi Empire in the Fuzhong Continent for each competition. The competition will be held in November... The prize money for the top ten is 60 gold coins, the third place is 100 gold coins, the second place is 150 gold coins, the first place is 200 gold coins, and there is also a special reward of a high-level magic sword..."
"Our class needs to choose two representatives. For the girls, Isabella will undoubtedly be the one to go on stage. For the boys, is there anyone who needs to compete with me?"
The boys in the class looked at each other with frowns on their faces.
He was the seventh prince who was at the second level of the primary stage. God knew what he had trained in the two-month summer vacation.
At this time, Yurix, the only one who disagreed, raised his hand and said, "Can I try to compete with you, Your Highness?"
Yurix thought that he had won twenty consecutive victories in Guanbei Town at the beginning of the year, and had gone on bounty missions with his team in the Adventurer's Commune during the summer vacation, and had experienced at least two hundred monster battles. The Seventh Prince was only strong, but he might not be his opponent, and he really needed this generous income...
