{MC POC}
While I was checking my status, I heard someone calling me, i found that voice familiar so I looked in that direction. It was Dragon Princess Elora.
" Ray, you also came to take admission in this academy?" asked Elora in excited tone.
" Hey Elora, yeah I was getting bored at home so I decided to come here" I said in gentle tone.
" Since you are here then, you will probably become the strongest student and get the position of Top 1" said Elora.
While I was talking with her, I saw Red haired man and Green haired beautiful elf coming towards us.
" Hello, my name is Leo and I am Dragon Prince" Red haired man said.
" My name is Ray" I replied in cold tone. Hearing me speaking coldly, he was taken aback because just now I was talking with Elora in gentle tone.
" Ray you don't have to be wary of them. He is my brother Leo and the green haired girl is Luna, and she is Elf Princess. Also, she is gentle and good girl. and, my brother is also a good person" Said Elora. Then she turned towards her brother Leo and Luna and said
"Brother remember I told you that I met a Rank 5 adventurer in the dungeon, and he was extremely strong, and he cleared Rank 6 dungeon. Well he was Ray. Also, brother the reason he talked with you so coldly is that he doesn't like arrogant, cunning people who talk to others only for their own benefits that's why he talks with everyone in cold tone to avoid talking to such people." explained Elora.
Listening to her words I gave a helpless sigh. (This girl is seriously exposing me) I thought.
"Hello my name is Luna" Said Elf princess is reserved and gentle tone.
"Hello, I am Ray" I said, this time in gentle tone since Elora already exposed me.
" Ray thank you for saving my sister in the dungeon. If you need any help in the future, then you can come to me." Said Leo in confident tone.
"Yes, Thank you" I said.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Suddenly The Gates of the Academy opened and we students were allowed to enter the academy. People started entering the academy.
Inside there were teachers who mostly had Rank 6 and Rank 7. There were 2 teachers who had rank 8 and Finally came a beautiful women and all teachers were looking towards her with admiration and respect. Since she was Rank 10 and was close to breaking into Rank 11.
"Hello students, My name is Selena. I am the Headmaster of this Central academy. Also, I am a Rank 10 magician. I am from Fox Race" said Selena. Demi humans have abilities to hide their animal like features. So her fox ears and tail were hidden.
Then one of the Rank 6 teacher step forward and said
" Now without wasting any time, we will start with the tests.
For the First Test, we will check your cultivation Rank and foundation" said the teacher.
Then he started releasing Rank 1 pressure.
Some students fainted with that pressure.
I mean how can a meager Rank 1 student even hope to enter the best academy with his Low Cultivation Rank.
Then teacher released Peak Rank 2 pressure
This time at least 50% students were instantly eliminated.
It looks like the majority of the students were Rank 2, and they were trying their luck in the academy.
Then the teacher released Initial Rank 3 pressure. More students fainted and were then teleported out of the academy. They were eliminated.
Then teacher stopped releasing his pressure.
Another teacher stepped forward and said
"Now For the Second Test.
We will check your affinities and current cultivation rank.
For that we want you to pour your mana into your academy registration token. Also, from now on rankings will start.
So You can see behind the Headmaster, There is Big square board. There you can see Top 100 ranks of students in each test."
I poured mana in the registration token, and it started searching for useful information in my status. I already disguised my status before coming in the academy. Once I was done with the coin. I looked towards the Ranking board and I was relieved after my stats.
Thankfully None of the Rank 8 teacher or Rank 10 Headmaster used Appraisal magic on me. Since my disguise magic is useless for their Rank. They can easily break it.
I also made eye contact with Headmaster, and she gave me a meaningful smile. Then I understood that she decided to not pry into my privacy and let me keep some things hidden or maybe my mother warned them.
There were 100 ranks and rankings were like this
1. Ray Ashborn (Vampire Prince)
Cultivation Rank = Rank 5 Knight/ Rank 5 Mage(Cultivate Both Paths)
Element Affinities = Fire (80%), Water (80%) , Wind (80%) , Space (20%).
2. Leo Carmine (Dragon Prince)
Cultivation Rank = Rank 3 Knight(Path dropped)/ Rank 5 Mage (Current Cultivation Path)
Element Affinities = Fire(60%) , Water (40%), Earth (20%), Lightning ( 10%)
3. Elora Carmine (Dragon Princess)
Cultivation Rank = Rank 2 Knight(Path dropped)/ Rank 5 Mage (Current Cultivation Path)
Element Affinities = Fire(50%), Wind (40%) , Lightning (0 %)
4. Luna Skyfall (Elves Princess)
Cultivation Rank = Rank 2 Knight(Path dropped)/ Rank 5 Mage (Current Cultivation Path)
Element Affinities = Water (30%), Wind (20%), Tree (80%).
5. Kana
Cultivation Rank = Rank 2 Knight(Path dropped) / Rank 4 Mage (Current Cultivation Path)
Element Affinities = Water (60%) , Space (10%)
6. Robin (Demi Human Prince)
Cultivation Rank = Rank 5 Knight
Element Affinities = Fire (0%) , Wind (0%).
7. Anthony (Human Prince)
Cultivation Rank = Rank 4 mage
Element Affinities = Earth (10 %) , Fire (0 %), Light (30 %)
.....
.....
..... Like this list continued till Rank 100.
All the students which had less than 2 elemental affinities and also had Less Cultivation Rank were also eliminated. Most of the students in Top 100 were those who had at least 2 Elemental affinities and also were At least Rank 3.
But there were still many students who were not in Top 100 and were still not eliminated, that's because the academy want to ensure whether they have combat capabilities or not. Its possible a student have higher Cultivation Rank, but his combat capabilities are shit.
"For the Third test.
All the students will be teleported somewhere else. There will be training dummies present in the room. We want you to Attack the dummy with your strongest Sword Skill or Magic Spell. We want to measure your maximum combat power." said the teacher. Then students started teleporting somewhere one by one.
Finally, a light enveloped me and I was also gone.
When I opened my eyes. I found myself in an indoor practice field.
There were two training dummies which can handle Peak Rank 5 attack.
It looks like one will have to shoot spells or perform sword skills on these mannequins. The examiner will check spell mastery, spell rank, casting time and power.
The examiner was a female teacher wearing a black robe and glasses with shoulder-length black hair. Somehow, she gives off an impression of a secretary if she wore a black suit.
"Alright then, please cast the magic spell or sword skill you are most proud of at maximum power.
Before that show me your adventure token."
When the examiner saw my admission token and her eyes widened for an instant.
"You will have to perform both Magic Spell on one dummy and Sword skill on the other" said the examiner.
I arrived at the assigned position.
I took my stance and used ["Meteor Splitting Sword Strike:].
Even though I was Rank 5. But my sword attack power was close to Rank 6, so Training Dummy got sliced in half.
Seeing this Teacher Mouth opened wide, and he was looking towards me like I was a Freak.
After all she herself was Rank 5 teacher, and even she doesn't have enough strength to do what I did.
Then I moved towards second dummy.
This time i cast Rank 5 spell ["Hell's Fist"] and when I attacked the dummy.
The result was well.... dummy got blasted apart.
Hell's Fist is the strongest fire spell in my castle's library.
Of course with my 80% fire Comprehension and my Rank 5 strength. This Rank 5 spell power also reaches close to Rank 6.
Once I finished this, I was teleported out of the room and I returned to previous place.
I saw all others students also returned and were now looking at rankings.
1. Ray Ashborn
Cultivation rank = Rank 5 knight/ Rank 5 mage
Combat Power = Rank 6 Knight/ Rank 6 Mage
2. Leo Carmine
Cultivation rank = Rank 3 Knight/ Rank 5 mage
Combat Power = Rank 5 Mage
.....
.....
... Rank 100
