Chapter 183: Tarim
After passing through the city gates, Ares saw what Vivien called the Duel Square. It was indeed full of people, which was in stark contrast to the desertion inside the city gate cave.
But it's no wonder that Ares feels strange, this Tancente, although he looks more noisy and likes to fight, has a homely attribute in his bones. Once they have chosen the city they want to live in, they will not leave the city again as long as there is nothing special. Therefore, the Duel Square is located inside the city gate, so the Tancente people living in Tarim City basically have no reason to go out of the city gate. And when they came, they didn't encounter any caravans or mercenaries coming in and out, so there were only two of them in the entire doorway.
"At that time, Tarim City was actually just a small town, and it was not called Tarim City at that time. But a member of the royal family named Tarim was born here unexpectedly for some reason. Later, when he was sixteen years old, his identity was unexpectedly exposed. In the end, he had to take refuge in the Yusas Empire under the cover of the people in the town. Soon after entering the city, Vivien forgot about the previous unpleasantness and explained the origin of Tarim City to Ares as she went.
"And then?" asked Ares.
"Looks like you're interested in this story," Vivien said with a smile as she glanced at Ares, "Later, that Tarim started his education in the Empire of Yusas. And this Tarim can be regarded as extraordinarily talented, although he has not studied in any academy in the previous sixteen years in order to hide his identity. But he still relied on the skills he learned from his neighbors to pass the entrance test of Blue Moon Academy and get the opportunity to study in it. ”
"Blue Moon Academy. Ares repeated softly.
"That's right, Blue Moon Academy. The best high-level university in the Eusas Empire, and it can be regarded as a very top-level high-level institution in the entire continent. It is said that their entrance test is to divide all the talented talents who are eligible for admission from all over the world into small groups for a battle in the ring, and only the final winner will actually get the opportunity to study at Blue Moon Academy. And it is in this situation that Tarim relies on his ability to be basically self-taught, and stands out among the many geniuses, isn't it very powerful?" asked Vivien.
"It's really powerful!But isn't there a place for exemption from the examination at the Blue Moon Academy?Isn't it possible for Tarim, as a member of the royal family of the Tancente Empire, to get a place? Ares said.
"Haha, Ares, why did you start talking stupid. If he had that right, he wouldn't have been driven into exile in another country. Even the qualification to take the entrance test was obtained by his neighbor's uncle who had a classmate who worked as a tutor at Blue Moon Academy. Listening to Ares's words, Vivien said with a smile.
"I'm sorry, but I didn't turn my head for a while. Ares reacted and said apologetically.
"Stupid or not, why should you apologize for this kind of thing. By the way, Ares, you should have just graduated just because of your age, right? With your strength, you can be considered a genius, and you should get the opportunity to study at the High Academy?" Vivien said, giving Ares a blank look.
"I had a chance, but I didn't have that good life and missed it. Ares said with a light sigh.
"It's okay, it won't work this year, you can go next year. As for the quota, you don't have to worry, I'll help you figure it out. You're so good, it's definitely bad luck this year, and you'll definitely be able to do it next year. By the way, which house are you going to this year?" Vivien comforted Ares.
"As it happens, it's also Blue Moon Academy. Ares looked at Vivien and smiled.
"Really? It's actually Blue Moon Academy. You know, the one I want to go to most is Blue Moon Academy. Now, by next year, I will be able to take the entrance test for Blue Moon Academy with me. Vivien said in surprise.
"Why go to Blue Moon Academy, so far. Isn't there an academy in the Tancente Empire that you like?" Ares wondered.
"There are a few high academies, but how can those who only know about fighting all day long know what real magic is. Vivien said with a look of disgust.
"Magic, are you a magician?" said Ares.
"What's wrong with the magician? Do you think we Tancents can't have the talent of a magician? I'll tell you, this is the second time you've openly disliked us Tancents. If you don't give me an explanation today, I'm not done with you!" Vivien paused, crossed her waist and pointed at Ares.
"Calm down, calm down! I've come from a small place, I haven't seen a few magicians, and I haven't recognized your profession for a while, it's normal. Vivien's shouting on the street made Ares a little flustered, and quickly explained.
"Haha, are you shy? It's okay, it's a common thing in us in Tancente. With this level of argument between the two of us, no one else is even interested in looking at it on this street. Vivien couldn't help but laugh when she saw Ares' expression.
"It's a little bit uncomfortable. Ares didn't deny it, and was relieved to look around and see that no one really seemed to care about them.
"You're a person who spoke coldly before. I thought you were as boring as the old guys in the Imperial Capital. I didn't expect you to be so fun after getting acquainted with it. Vivien said as she stared at Ares with interest.
"I'm really sorry, I was on the road just now, I was in a bit of a hurry, I forgot to ask your profession, and I didn't sense any magic fluctuations from you. That's why I was so surprised to hear you say that you were a magician. But I don't mean to look down on the Tancents. Ares relented and apologized to Vivien again.
"Of course, how could a magician as good as us be easily perceived by people about magic fluctuations. However, for the sake of your sincere apology, and we will be classmates in the future, I will forgive you. After all, we Blue Moon Academy people are notoriously united. Vivien said smugly.
"Have you been to Blue Moon Academy before? Ares asked.
"No, my father didn't allow me to leave the territory of the Tancente Empire at all. Vivien's expression was a little gloomy, and then she continued with a high spirit: "However, it is mentioned in the deeds of Tarim. At the beginning, after Tarim successfully entered the Blue Moon Academy, the academy stopped all the pursuers against him for him. At that time, the dean of the Blue Moon Academy sent a direct message to the emperor of the Tancente Empire, demanding that all actions against Tarim be stopped until Tarim graduated from the Blue Moon Academy. Otherwise, the Blue Moon Academy would see this behavior as a provocation by the Tancente Empire against the Blue Moon Academy. ”
