At ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍the various Alliance ports closer to the Main Continent，astronomical quantities of materials were transported to the Continent by sea every day，as the frontline of the Alliance’s explosive production capacity it could be said that every kind of equipment was available，even two specialized Air-defense Cruisers were still continuously conducting combat-readiness patrols。

Because ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍the fighting had basically been declared over across the entire front with only a few places still stubbornly resisting，the Continent had broadly entered a period of peace，and the Alliance had also basically completed its takeover of the transportation systems of the various nations。

In ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍a certain sense，this conference invitation counted as a lifting of restrictions on the movement of personnel，so not only did representatives from the various nations visit，the former elite classes of the Allied Nations also obtained permission for exchanges。

For ‍​‌​‌​‌​​​‌‌​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​​​​​​​‌‌‌​​​​​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌‌​​‌​‌‌​​‌​​​​‌‌​​‌​​​‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌​​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌​‌​​​​‌​​​​​​‌‌‌​​‌‌​‌‌‌​‌​​​‌‌‌​​‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌‌‌​​‌​​‌​​​​​​‌‌​​‌‌​​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​‌‌​​​‌‌​‌​​‌​‌‌​​​​‌​‌‌‌​​‌​​​‌​‌‌‌​‍example the student groups arriving at the port this time came from the Wallis Empire Capital Royal Academy and the Ailno Saint Magic Academy。

The Academy grading system on the Magic Continent was extremely simple

It was divided into：Elementary Church Instruction Institute

Intermediate、Advanced、Saint-level、Special-grade Magic Academy。

Elementary Academies were controlled by the Churches within the various nations，their strength unknown。

Only starting from Intermediate were there specialized Magic Academies，the strength of the teaching staff had to be one level higher than the Academy rating，for example the Principal and Vice Principal stationed at a Saint-level Magic Academy would both be Half-God-level Experts，and there were not many such Academies across the entire Continent。

As for Special-grade，that was an exclusive rating for the Capital Royal Academies of the various nations，their teaching staff was even stronger，usually High-level Mages from within the Kingdom or Empire concurrently served as teachers，and teacher strength fluctuated according to national strength。

For example the Principal and Vice Principal of the Wallis Empire Royal Academy belonged to the Half-God level，while the Principal and Vice Principal of the Frini Kingdom Royal Academy were Saint-level，the strength of Academies varied greatly。

Putting aside the suppression of various ruling systems outside society，the Alliance generally adopted relatively courteous conciliatory measures toward student groups，as long as you continued maintaining a neutral stance then it would be treated as though nothing had happened，after all the potential destructive power of young people could only be described as something those who understood understood。

Unless necessary the Alliance would not make students targets of suppression，to avoid provoking resistance among Ordinary People。

When conditions permitted the Alliance was more inclined to trick..no，invite students into universities within the Alliance for advanced study and exchanges。

This time was exactly the same，the two Academies applied hoping to conduct Friendly Exchanges with the various Alliance universities and within two days received approval，they were even conveniently assigned a passenger ship，and along the route once they entered waters patrolled by Alliance warships they would also receive protection for a section of the journey。

It could be said that the surface work was done extremely well，without the slightest sign of neglect。

And their first stop，was Sivius University of Technology

Sivius University of Technology ranked in the upper-middle within the Alliance’s own rating system，and could be considered a decent State University，but that was all。

The main reason it was selected as the first target for a visit was because they were passing through the other side’s region，so both emotionally and logically it was better to show some respect，but inwardly they did not think much of it。

After all under the principle of equivalent grading，as prestigious top Academies of the Magic Continent，their counterparts naturally also had to be the Alliance’s top Academies。

“The stone pillars have Elemental Fluctuations，these have undergone Magical Reinforcement and inscription，or is this itself a Magic Artifact？If it is a Magic Artifact then that is far too extravagant。”

“But this gate is really ugly...there is no decoration at all。”

Several lavishly dressed Noble Mages looked at the gate of the Institute of Technology before them and whispered among themselves，although at first glance the gate pillars merely looked like ordinary stone，under a Mage’s perception the Elemental Fluctuations contained within the four gate pillars were outrageously conspicuous，to the point that they could be recognized at a glance from eight hundred meters away。

Yet when they walked up and looked it turned out to look like this damn thing。If Mitia saw it she would probably say one thing：“Covertly Flashy”

Several accompanying Mentors stepped forward and negotiated with the gate guards to explain their purpose，very soon several people opened the gates and walked out from inside the campus，clearly the University of Technology had already made preparations to receive them。

Uniformed men and women wearing Academy insignias walked in front of the two Academy groups under the guidance of a teacher。

“Tch~they’re all commoners...”

Someone in the crowd muttered a sentence，the volume neither loud nor quiet，just enough for everyone exchanging pleasantries at the front to hear。

Although everyone wore Academy uniforms and logically should have been difficult to distinguish，from small items such as the jewelry they wore it was still possible to roughly judge a person’s family circumstances。

“Yes，all the students and teachers throughout our university are Ordinary Citizens of the Alliance。”

The teachers and students of the Institute of Technology who were mocked showed no anger on their faces and even carried faint smiles，this instead made the Royal Academy Mentor who had been preparing to turn around and rebuke them somewhat embarrassed，not knowing whether he should continue his action。

They could only blame themselves for not understanding the Alliance enough，within the Alliance the greatest insult was saying that someone conducted themselves like a Noble Lord，and forms of address such as Young Master or Milady had by now in most situations become synonymous with sarcasm。

Across the Party、Government、and Military systems of the entire Alliance，99% of officials holding principal posts and positions at Department level or above came from commoner families，and among Nobles except for several specific family surnames that had risen together with the nation，the principle of recusal would be adopted regarding promotion and appointment。

This was a historical legacy problem，the Noble families still existing within the Alliance were either surrendering factions or collateral branches of Royal Families left behind after the main line was eliminated，Royal Nobles were also ridiculously fertile，so the population base of this group was not small，and they also possessed deep inherited family foundations。

One had to admit that when comparing the knowledge and strategic vision of family elders，the Noble Class was in most cases much stronger than Ordinary Families，the saying that having an old person at home was like possessing a treasure was reflected extremely thoroughly among Nobles。

So during assessment and appointment，extra weighting would be added if an individual’s family or even relatives possessed Noble Bloodline。For the same position，with the same political achievements a Commoner-born Official would be chosen for promotion one hundred percent of the time，while a Noble seeking promotion needed a résumé at least 20%-30% better than their competitor。

And this additional 20-30% margin basically locked out the possibility of a deputy becoming the principal officer，but if someone could break through this margin，then the Alliance no longer cared what their birth was and would appoint them directly。

As for why the Noble requirements were higher by a section，naturally that was to offset the hereditary advantages of Nobles，whether you had them or not they simply assumed that you did。

Among the Alliance’s several terms of Prime Ministers there had been sons of farmers，sons of workers，sons of drivers，but uniquely there had never been a son whose ancestors carried some special Bloodline。

Because at the Election Assembly family background would be marked，so what Ordinary Citizen would cast their vote for a Noble？Dream on。

Under this kind of atmosphere passed down through words and example，Ordinary People and students would naturally take pride in their own origins，because this was a genuine bonus in Political Resources，different groups all had corresponding Labor Unions behind them，which was especially important for university students who wanted to enter public service。

Under this vague but persistent targeted suppression，the Old Noble Group had practically no chance to rise，even marriage ties had been banned by the Alliance，after all any high-ranking official with even a little ambition basically would not consider women from Noble Families，needlessly creating a pile of obstacles for themselves without any benefits。

As time passed new classes began to form，the old Noble groups gradually disappeared from Upper Society，excluded from the Core Circle，leaving behind only memes that continued to circulate。

Casually letting the matter pass，the teachers and students of the Institute of Technology led them into the Academy to visit and tour。

There was actually nothing particularly special about it，basically it was simply a normal Modern University，with everything that should be there。

Such as a library，study rooms，dormitory buildings，all kinds of sports fields and sports venues，as well as the permanent dating sanctuary，an Artificial Lake。

The reason Artificial Lakes were common in schools was very simple，many of the basic materials needed to build a university were directly sourced locally，after digging a huge pit they were too lazy to fill it back in so they simply turned it into an Artificial Lake。

For the teachers and students of the two Magic Academies they actually really wanted to exchange with the Alliance Magic Departments，because this was the field they were most skilled in。

And as the victor of this great war the Alliance had swept away the overwhelming majority of Magical Materials within the Seven-Nation Alliance and taken them back，it could be said that the Alliance which had integrated the accumulation of the Magic Continent over many years was now the Holy Land of Magic。

However under the explanation of the leading Mentor they became somewhat disappointed and angry，because universities within the Alliance almost universally had no Magic Departments，only subdivided elective Magic Courses。

Across the entire Alliance only a handful still retained Magic Departments，and all of them primarily researched the popularization and application of Magic，there were no Magic Combat Departments，just like the Magic Department of Sivius University of Technology，their main courses were on how to develop Magic to better carry out Infrastructure Construction。

You damn well took away so much stuff，and you’re telling me you took it to build houses for fun？！

What was this？This fucking felt like you solemnly handed your Goddess over to some blond bastard，and the blond bastard did not even cherish her，rammed her hard，then afterward told you it felt average。

Several students could no longer endure it，directly ignoring the looks from their Mentors as they jumped out red-faced and thick-necked：“I want to duel the students of your Magic Department！”

“You are far too disrespectful toward Magic！I also request a duel！”

“Only in battle can Magic display its greatest value，I will prove this to you！”

Mori，the teacher leading the Sivius University group，looked somewhat hesitant at the students shouting for duels：“It isn’t impossible，but their Magic Combat experience is insufficient。”

The Alliance had not completely abandoned Magic，it had merely moved into other application fields。

During university Military Training new students would still uniformly be taught methods of Magic Combat and training，it was simply not mandatory，and those who truly wanted to learn how to fight also had plenty of Magic Books and visiting Magic Professors to teach them。

But Combat Magic existed independently outside the Alliance University Education System，it would not grant you preferential treatment in graduation evaluation or any other field，it was similar to an extracurricular hobby。

“It’s fine Teacher Mori，this time can just be considered a Friendly Exchange，it won’t harm the harmony between both sides。”

“Yes，your esteemed school has no Magic Discipline，then this sparring match will merely be an exhibition performance。”

The teachers leading the two Academies had already lowered the specifications all the way to an exhibition match，so seemingly it was not very good to keep refusing。

Suddenly a petite girl bounced past not far from Mori and the others，his eyes instantly lit up as he waved and shouted：“Lilian！”

Lilian who had already gone some distance stopped her bouncing little legs，her ears twitched as she looked toward Mori and the others，after seeing it was Mori a smile appeared on her face，she walked toward Mori with her legs moving normally，no longer bouncing like before，instead appearing full of ladylike temperament，when she reached everyone she obediently called out：“Hello Mentor Mori。”

“Let me introduce everyone，these are guests from the Wallis Empire Capital Royal Academy and the Ailno Saint Magic Academy，this is Lilian，a student from the affiliated school under our Sivius Academy，her attainments in Combat Magic are quite good。”

“Her？She’s this tiny，can she really do it？Don’t let us make her cry。”

One female student questioned this，then was immediately covered at the mouth by her companion and dragged into the group to hide：“Hey！Don’t talk nonsense！Look at her chest，there’s a family emblem，it’s an eagle！”

“So what if it’s an eagle！”

“It wouldn’t matter in another nation，but within the Alliance there is only one family that can use the Eagle Emblem...it is the family crest of that person in the heavens above...”

“......Holy shit！！！”

Ignoring the unfriendly remarks，she blinked her large eyes and curiously looked at the huge group before her，she was precisely the silly roe deer Lilian。

The development of the silly roe deer was somewhat different from other races，her body grew in stages following changes in her mentality，the reason she had always failed to grow up before was because Eliza and Mitia protected her too well，so she had always possessed the mindset of a little child。

Later under the advice of a friend Eliza allowed Lilian to attend Middle School，only then did changes begin to appear，and she gradually developed into her current Middle School student appearance。

As for why she was running around inside a university campus，it was because the school she attended that offered Magic Combat Courses was the Affiliated Middle School of Sivius Academy。

It contained both Middle School and High School divisions，and its address was located right beside Sivius Academy，as students of the affiliated school，they were basically prospective students of Sivius University，so wandering everywhere around the Academy was completely normal。

As for whether it was appropriate to let a Middle School student spar with these university students from the Royal Academy，Mori who had swept a glance over the strength of those Academy students would say it was extremely appropriate，because she possessed a special skill that left a deep impression on people。

The strongest here was only a Level 7 Mage，with the average level around Level 5，if she truly became serious this entire group combined might not even be enough for Lilian to slaughter。

To be safe，Mori also dispatched two members of the Student Union to call over a group of science and engineering students who participated in the Combat Magic Club so they could all exchange together。

During the wait，the Mentor from the Ailno Saint Magic Academy observed the Sivius Academy students passing by，after looking several times he discovered a problem，namely that more or less all the students here actually carried Elemental Fluctuations on their bodies，and a few with stronger fluctuations were not much weaker than the students he had brought。

This made him somewhat suspicious that Mori was deliberately playing around with them。

When Mori heard what he said he loudly proclaimed his innocence，although Sivius had no Combat Mages，there were actually extremely many Mages，and Level 4 and Level 5 ones were not uncommon either。

It was just that these students studied Magic in order to do other things，basically they had barely learned how to fight，their Magical Strength and Combat Power were fundamentally not proportional。

As time passed several male students successively walked over from different parts of the Academy and greeted Mori，only then did the two Academies truly give up and believe that Sivius genuinely had no Combat Mage Department。

There was no need to look at anything else，just looking at the way these guys held their Magic Staffs showed they were a bunch of crooked oddballs，one of them even had his Magic Staff moving up and down behind his back，the damn guy was scratching an itch！

And their strength was generally around Level 6，at this stage they had already left behind the beginner period of being Mages and required year after year of study and training，their behavioral habits would also become fixed at this time，their standing posture and attitude toward Magic were such a spectacularly absurd sight that normal Combat Mages could not imitate it even if they tried。

However some people were not paying attention to these things，instead they were observing their Magic Staffs，because the Magic Staffs in the hands of these several people seemed to be...Standardized Products？！
