Star Academy was one of the six great academies of the Heavenly Federation, having a long history. Its founder, Heiner Van Sant, was a huge name. This was the reason that it had never dropped from the ranks of the six great academies, although in recent years, Star Academy had fallen and was by then at the very bottom of the list.
Star Academy's decline was directly related to its organizational structure.
It had 'internal academy' and 'external academy' divisions. Each year at a set time, the school selected a few whose achievements and talents were both outstanding, to enter the internal academy to study. And so, the internal academy was the most central place. Among everyone who had been able to graduate from the Internal Star Academy – no matter whether as a card master or as a card artisan – not a single one hadn't become some personage who had left behind a multilayered historical trail.
