My Soul card is a Reaper

251 The new exchange students

For those who have low-grade Arcana, Barton highly recommended letting their Arcana spirits absorb elemental crystals instead of themselves so that their Arcana spirits will get more mastery with the attribute and get a higher chance of mutation during the breakthrough to rank-4. As for those who already missed their chance, they can only wait for their next chance at rank-6 to rank-7 breakthrough, which is almost impossible for everyone with Arcana spirits that are lower than Purple Grade.

Soon, the bells rang at all the academic buildings and Barton dismissed the students while informing the new students to be at the training ground 5, which is nothing but a simple barren land surrounded by huge walls over 20 meters in height.

He also informed everyone to take a look at the notice board at the entrance of the academic buildings to find their name and class. As for Class Zero, they were told to go to the Indoor training facility located at Training grounds 1.

Azzy got up from his seat and followed everyone to exit the place, then, walked towards the location. After he parted ways with the rest of the students, Claire and others joined him. Mia was leading the new students to the training ground. So, she couldn't join them.

Surprisingly, four strangers also followed the rest of the eight. Two of them are around ten years old who appeared to be nervous because of the new environment. And the other two were in the upper grade.

The pony-tailed six feet teenager is one of those two, the other one being occupied in his own world. In a way, the guy behaved a little similar to the last year's Azzy. An indifferent expression on the face, not talking to anyone and even if someone strikes the conversation, all they would receive is a short answer to end it. While he looked a bit mysterious, he's only at the peak stage of the Lower Elite realm. At a glance, he looks unapproachable.

On the other hand, Louis who was an extrovert attracted the attention of others. His tall height and unique looks were a bonus.

The entrance of the training grounds zero was only a three-minute walk from the auditorium. And by the time the group entered the grounds, Lark and Louis already looked like they became good friends.

Louis was talking about his experiences at the main branch and spoke of his reasons for coming to this branch. "The main reason is because of the money. First thing, Silver City is damn expensive to live in. You can say the living costs over there are at least ten times that from here. I'm about to turn 15. After that, I can no longer enjoy the privilege of receiving education funds from our orphanage."

Realizing that he might draw pity instead, Louis quickly changed the conversation, "Anyway, did you guys know that this year's Champion League matches videos will soon become a teaching material here?"

"Not kidding…" Lark couldn't believe it for a second.

Louis nodded, "It's our usual regime to study and analyze those videos. After all Champions League is where top academies will send their representatives. Along with the junior tournament, we will also analyze the senior tournament. But, I should say it is still amazing to see a bunch of beginner stage Elite realm experts completely thrashing peak stage ones." After saying that, he nudged his classmate, "Don't you think so, Nick?"

The quiet one who was in his world opened his mouth for the first time, "it's more like a one-man team."

Everyone nearby couldn't help but glance at the couple leading the group before Lark commented while feeling jealous of Azzy, "Possessing a platinum grade Arcana is really unfair."

Even Louis agreed to his statement, "yeah. I guess that's why they were called the true children of heaven/ heaven's favored kids."

After another five-minute walk, the group of twelve reached the indoor training facility where card creation and practical combat classes are usually held. There, at the entrance, Vice Principal Sahara is waiting for them. She was a familiar person to everyone but the new kids. She didn't feel the need to introduce herself and just told them to follow her.

They followed her to a hall, divided into three sections, and a podium on the stage with a large screen on the wall. Azzy looked around. It's been a year since he last stepped inside this place, exactly one year ago, on the same day, although in the afternoon. Azzy remembered how he blew up the rooftop because of his lack of control over the soul energy and started a chain of events. Claire was also thinking about the same day but of a different event. Taking a seat, she whispered in his ears, "This is where we met for the first time, right?"

As everyone took their seats, Sahara proceeded to speak, "first of all, congratulations on making it to the prestigious class zero. From now onwards, this will be your classroom, habitats will be your outdoor training field, and Grand Arena will be your sparring platform. Except for the Robots Storage Chamber, every facility in this building is free to access. After a while, your homeroom teacher will arrive. Until then, stay here and wait. And Azrael?"

"Yes?" Azzy stood up from his seat as she called his name.

"You are the president of Disciplinary Committee. So, I'll be leaving them in your hands. No one is to go and roam until your teacher arrives." Sahara passed and order and walked away. Azzy took his seat again.

Everyone in the room knew of Azzy, even including the new students. Forget about going outside, no one even dared to move from their seat for half an hour until Uphiar arrives. Just like how Azzy felt last year, the new students also felt the same when they first took a glimpse at this sorcerer with a staff in his hand. The fault lies in his face. No one can do anything about it if they misunderstood him for a wicked Arcana Master.

Their attention quickly shifted to the little boy and a teenage girl who stood behind him.

"These are your new classmates." Uphiar pointed to the two of them after briefly introducing himself. He then looked at them and gestured to give introductions.

First, the little boy stepped forward. He appeared to be nervous as he introduced himself, "Hello, my name is Stephanus. I'm uhh… 8 years old and hailed from Egrein city. Please take care of me." He bowed a little in the end and finished his introduction.

Then, it was the girl's turn. She crossed her arms to the chest and let out a snort, "You lot are not worthy to know my name but since I'm going to study here for the next two years, then, I'll make a favor on you all. My name is Estella Moon, 15 years old, Peak stage of Elite realm, and the host of a top tier platinum grade Arcana spirit, or should I say, one of the most powerful Arcanas ever existed. I became an exchange student after hearing that there's a person like me studying here." Whether it's her expression, her posture, or her words, the arrogance and cockiness are clear for everyone.

"Moon? One of the nine hidden clans?" Azzy's expression hasn't changed a bit on the outside, but inwardly, he was alarmed a bit. Encountering other hidden clans isn't a good thing for him.
