The distinct, pleasant smell of salty water wafted around the air. Under the bright sky, the crashing sound of waves hitting the stone wall, and loud cries of seagulls flying across the vast and shallow, glistening blue ocean welcomed the group of unusual crowds, who stood by the pavement above the calm water to wait for their turn to enter the small ship.

This either meant they're enrollees that are on their way to the final test before being officially recognized as students by the academy, or special visitors that were granted access personally by the headmaster or one of the grandmasters.
