A month has passed by.
The day in the academy went uneventful.
Allen has remained tier 5 for a month. It wasn't that easy to pass tier 5.
His mana has changed drastically. The demonic mana has become the foundation and his original mana has become the thing that supports the foundation.
His power is now 2 times stronger than an ordinary mage.
He has also learned quite a lot of skills.

Even if he has tons of them, only some are going to use them rapidly. Others only will be used in case of emergencies.
Allen smirked.
He stood in front of the mirror flexing his body. He was doing rather stupid things. He didn't go monster hunting much, as it was boring and he has quite a money to last.
His last month went by with 5 things; Learning skills, Using them, Spending Time alone in the library, Hanging out sometimes with his little sister, and ignoring others who asked him to be their friends.
Now, today was the day when every third-year student who has reached tier 3 participated in the mage tournament.
Mage Tournament as its name suggested is for mages who have reached tier 3 and are lower than tier 9.
Mages lower than tier 3 and higher than tier 9 can't participate.
If someone became the champion and won the first prize, they don't continue to be in the school. They can graduate and explore the world.
Wearing a black mage robe, Allen exited the room.
The mage tournament is going to take place in the city's largest arena. It has the capacity of handling millions of audiences.
Different mage academies students will fight there.
The participants cross over tens o thousands.
The tournaments continue for a week or even for a month. It is the largest event after the class examination.
Now it times to put my name on the list.
Allen exited the building and arrived in an office.
Many students were standing in a line waiting for their turn.; Allen stood behind and waited.
After ten minutes, his turn finally came.
"Name?"
A middle-aged woman wearing a mage robe with a cold face asked without batting an eye at Allen.
"Allen." Allen replied politely.
"Tier?"
"5"
And after some questions, his name has been added to the list. A badge with the number 1001 was handed to him. It was the token that every participant would need.
The academy will leave for the tournament tomorrow, so every participant should be present outside the gate by 9 am, or you are eliminated from the tournament and the academy.
After listing, Allen went to his room and cooked breakfast and ate.
Tomorrow-
His sister has returned home to check on her parents and her brothers.
Allen arrived at the gate, which was filled with students. Allen stood at the corner as an old man walked there. He had a domineering look on his face filled with nobility and seriousness.
He looked at the students and nodded.
"You guys are the hope of our academy. I hope you all will not tarnish our academy's reputation. Now, let's wish we get a decent ranking in the tournament."
His voice was soft but rang all over the place without the need of a mike.
After that, all the students sat in a big carriage. It wasn't very big nor very small. A carriage holds 4 students.
Similarly, hundreds of carriages left the academy.
Inside the carriage, Allen sat with a blank expression on his face looking at his three companions.
One big muscular guy and two petty girls.
The muscular guy stared at Allen for a moment before smiling and opening his mouth. "Hello, guys. My name is Jin. Nice to meet you."
He stretched his hands towards Allen with a family-friendly smile. Allen hesitated before speaking politely.
"Name's Allen. Nice to meet you too."
He shook the bear guy's hands.
Then the bear guy looked at the two girls.
"Hello, ladies. Would you mind introducing yourselves?"
Allen looked at the bear guy with a little bit of respect in his eyes.
He has some social skills.
"Uhh,.."
The girls looked a little uncomfortable. But they sighed.
"My name is Mina."
"My name is Rena."
"Ohh! What beautiful names."
"T-Thanks?"
"Thanks."
One looked a shy type while the other looked the cold type.
What a combination.
An anti-social guy, a social guy, a shy girl, and a cold girl.
This must be the best combination of people in history.
As Allen thought inside his mind, an awkward silence floated in the carriage. It was too uncomfortable!
