Chapter 202: Strength Seal
Ghost City, in the office of the dean of Blue Moon Academy. Elsa's mentor at Blue Moon Academy, Yan Yu, sent this year's participating team to the magic bus to the ancestral land of the Spirit Clan, and then came here to report the situation to Principal Charles.
"Going?" Charles said as he raised his head and looked at Yan Yu, who had just entered the door. Today's Dean Charles doesn't seem to be the same as usual, with short silver hair neatly combed back and a sky-blue mage robe embroidered with gorgeous patterns. Charles, who is more than 2,000 years old, is already an old man in the forest elf clan, but after carefully dressing up, he can still see a little bit of the demeanor of the most handsome guy in the clan back then.
"It's off, but Lord Dean, what's wrong with you today, why are you dressed so formally?" Tutor Yan Yu was also stunned when he saw Charles's outfit, and immediately covered his mouth and chuckled.
"Why, isn't it handsome?" said Charles, looking down at himself and smiling.
"Handsome is handsome, it's just a little sudden, it's not your usual style at all. Tutor Yan Yu replied.
"There's no way, I'm usually too busy, how can I have the time to clean myself up. But today is different, before you came, I had just finished a magical video call with the Great Elder of the Spirit Clan. You know, those old guys care more about these things like etiquette, and I don't want to be trained for nothing. Charles shook his head and said.
"Haha, old fellow. Uncle, you're really embarrassed to say. Hearing Charles say this, Mentor Yan Yu couldn't help but laugh.
"Why can't you say that he's more than two hundred years older than me, why isn't he an old fellow? Also, this is the academy, don't giggle, be serious, call me the dean. Charles said with a glare.
"Okay, Lord Dean, I have some doubts, I wonder if you can answer them for me?" Tutor Yan Yu quietly grimaced, and then returned to his previous rigorous appearance.
"You're trying to ask me why I have to represent the college at the house fair, right?" Charles said.
"Not exactly, but what I can't understand even more than this is why you would use the Academy's open support for the recruitment of the Morninglight Mercenary Group in the Academy as an exchange condition for Aisha and Ciel to participate in the Academy's exchange meeting?" Tutor Yan Yu asked.
"In exchange for this, what else can you do to get that girl to be aroused?" Charles replied with a smile.
"You know, Lord Dean, that's not the point. For thousands of years, our college has never actively interfered with students' choice of path after graduation. And now you want to openly support a mercenary group to recruit students in the academy, and those guys in the academy will never approve your decision. Tutor Yan Yu said seriously.
"It is only to recognize the legitimacy of its recruitment behavior, and it will not force the students to join, so it cannot interfere with the students' choice of path. What do they know about those guys?" replied Charles, pouting, sitting down in his office chair.
"But why is that? Even if Aisha is strong, she doesn't necessarily have to go to the student exchange meeting. After all, she hasn't been in the academy for long, so there's no need for us to rush at this time?" Tutor Yan Yu asked puzzled.
"Hey, the continent we live on has begun to change. Faced with Yan Yu's mentor's question, Charles sighed lightly and said.
"What do you mean by that, Lord Dean?" asked Tutor Yan Yu.
"Being able to naturally break through to the Holy Rank before the age of seventeen has never been the case after the elemental tides. There's no denying that Aisha's talent is indeed top-notch. But if the continent is still the same as before, it is absolutely impossible to reach the level of natural breakthrough at such a young age. Charles replied.
"Lord of the Courtyard, if you judge it like this, will it be a little too arbitrary? Admittedly, Aisha's breakthrough is indeed a bit incredible. However, Aisha is not only extremely talented in magic, but also has an unmatched understanding and attitude towards magic among her peers. Some of her thoughts are amazing to those of us who are mentors. Therefore, I think it is not completely impossible for Aisha to reach the realm of the Holy Rank of Natural Breakthrough at such a young age. After listening to Charles's words, Tutor Yan Yu defended Aisha unconvinced.
"You misunderstood me, I didn't mean to underestimate Elsa in the slightest. It's just that some changes have really taken place in this continent, because not only Aisha, but also geniuses who naturally broke through to the Holy Rank before the age of twenty have appeared in other places. And what's even more amazing is that I suddenly found that the bottleneck of my strength seems to have loosened. Charles explained.
"You mean above the Holy Steps ... Tutor Yan Yu exclaimed.
"That's right, it's really above the Holy Order. It's not just me, but the old guys in the clan and the spirit clan basically feel this way. And according to reliable sources, there have already been people who have managed to reach that level. Charles nodded.
"There are really people who have reached the legendary realm!, but Lord Dean, isn't it a thing to be happy that there has been a breakthrough in strength?" Tutor Yan Yu sighed and then asked.
"Personally, it's a good thing. But from the perspective of the whole continent, it is not a pleasant thing. On this continent, there has been no reason why there has been no powerhouse above the Holy Rank for thousands of years. At the beginning, after the elemental tide, the sky shattered, and the Void Beasts invaded on a large scale, killing wantonly on this continent. Then the Shining Gold Temples of the entire continent were stimulated, exterminating the Void Beasts, repairing the firmament, and we had the stable life we have now. Charles said with a light sigh.
"So, the strength seal is real?" Mentor Yan Yu asked.
"Have you heard of the Strength Seal?" Charles glanced at Mentor Yan Yu in surprise.
"Well, more than ten years ago, when I was still in the clan. A few humans came to talk to my father and said a lot of strange things. I happened to hear something about the Strength Seal nearby. Tutor Yan Yu replied.
"Hmph, these Adventist guys are really pervasive. Charles said with a cold snort.
"Holy Advent Society, Lord Dean knows about those people, is what they said at the time true, is the temple really sealing the strength of everyone on the continent?"
"What was your father's attitude towards them in the first place?" Charles asked without directly answering Yan Yu's words, instead staring at her.
"Well, I remember my father's attitude was extremely cold, and before they could continue, he kicked the men out. Tutor Yan Yu was a little confused, but he still thought about it carefully and said.
