There were three people from the academies of the dragon race, but Clarence knew not to underestimate them.
Their escort had told them that not getting admitted into the allied academy doesn't mean they weren't geniuses. It could just be that they were late bloomers and couldn't perform well in the entrance test.
There were also some who had sufficient support from the family and trained in the family itself. These kinds of geniuses didn't like to socialize by going to the academies.
One might ask if they already have sufficient resources why would they come to the ruins. Simple, ruins are simply that precious. Like previously said, ruins have a chance of having unique resources not available in the outside world, not to mention the guaranteed research.
This brings more questions, if ruins were that simple, how could the dragon race hand it over so easily? Because it was just a level four ruin. Ruins were valuable in the past where the cultivation era wasn't that glorious.
