“Well, for one, this particular fruit is a holy fruit known as Heaven’s apple!” explained the crowned woman.

As she went on, Gerald came to learn that the Heaven’s apple only matured once every hundred years. Since the fruit was capable of replenishing energy and mending wounds, it was a fundamental pharmaceutical ingredient in the Leicom Continent.

“…Alright, but… That doesn’t explain why the dragon’s so interested in the Heaven’s apples. Just so you know, I even fed it meat earlier, but it barely showed any interest!” replied the confused Gerald.

Chuckling in response, the crowned woman then said, “Since that’s the case, I’m now surer than ever that the green dragon is one of the Divine Beasts of the Leicom Continent. I’m assuming you found it while taking on the Challenge of the Fairyland? Regardless, just know that the dragon will only feed on Heaven’s apples!”

Seeing that Gerald registered her words, the crowned woman then cleared her throat before adding in a more serious tone, “Either way, since the young green dragon chose you to be its master, I’m sure you’re no ordinary person. With that said, I hope you’ll nurture it well! If you do, I’m sure it’ll help you obtain unimaginable gains!”

Hearing that, Gerald simply nodded. Even without the idea of getting anything back in return, he was still going to take good care of the baby dragon.

Pleased by Gerald’s determination, the woman then waved her hand… prompting hundreds of Heaven’s apples to be plucked before they quickly gathered in front of Gerald!

Momentarily dumbfounded, Gerald eventually snapped out of it before asking, “…What’s all this then?”

“Well, let’s just say that I believe we were fated to meet! Since the young dragon needs the Heaven’s apples anyway, consider these to be my gift to you!” replied the crowned woman with a smile.

Before Gerald could even reply, the crowned woman had already leaped into the sky, and soon after, she couldn’t even be seen anymore…

Unsure how to even respond to the turn of events, Gerald simply placed all the Heaven’s apples into his storage ring…

Following that, Gerald then began walking out of the manor with the baby dragon. Since it was already full, the happy dragon soon began snoring within the storage ring…

Sighing helplessly, Gerald then muttered, “Hey now… To think that you’re sleeping right after I cleaned up the mess you made… It makes me wonder if I’m really your master here!”

Still, the dragon was now his pet, so Gerald was well aware that it was his duty to take good care of it.

Eventually, Gerald reunited with Nori and Zelig who had been waiting at the manor’s gate this entire time.

Seeing that he was in one piece, both of them instantly sighed in relief. That made it quite evident that they had been worried about his safety this entire time.

Even so, that didn’t stop Nori from looking around Gerald—almost as though she was trying to see if he had suffered any injuries—as she asked, “Are you alright Gerald? Are you hurt anywhere?”

Shaking his head, Gerald then replied, “I’m perfectly fine. I was able to clear the misunderstanding!”

Hearing that, the duo was relieved once again. After all, they would surely be greatly saddened if something bad happened to him.

Regardless, now that the food problem had been solved, Gerald then looked at the duo before asking, “Speaking of which… Do you two have a reason for coming here?”

Quite frankly, he had no idea why he was here in the first place.

“…Huh? You’re telling us you don’t know why we’re here…?” replied Zelig in surprise.

“Not a clue. I’m assuming you know the reason…?” asked Gerald with a slight frown as Zelig and Nori exchanged glances with each other before nodding.

“We’re here to enroll in the Leicom Academy to train and become stronger cultivators!” replied Nori.

“The Leicom Academy…?” asked Gerald, feeling confused.

Following that, Nori and Zelig then began detailing the academy to Gerald.

Essentially, the Leicom Academy was the largest academy for cultivators in the Leicom Continent. Once every decade, the academy would select talents from different continents to enroll there, and those who were chosen usually ended up becoming the most powerful of cultivators. The academy also had a system where the student with the most outstanding performance would be appointed as chief scholar. Needless to say, obtaining that title was a great honor within that academy…

Regardless, that was pretty much the reason why all those people from Jaellatra had come over. Gerald himself wasn’t aware of all this since only those from Jaellatra even knew about the Leicom Continent.

Whatever the case was, now that Gerald understood what was happening, he was prompted to ask, “And… How exactly can we enroll in the academy?”

After hearing how prestigious it was, Gerald was now fired up to get into the academy and have a look at how great it was himself. Who knows, he could encounter an experience of a lifetime if he managed to enroll there…

“Well, we first need to pass a test!” replied Zelig.

“I see… When’s it going to be held?” asked Gerald.

“Around three this evening.”

Raising a slight brow, Gerald then checked the time…

…It was already half-past two. The test was in half an hour!

“…It’s already two-thirty! If we don’t hurry, we’re going to be late!” exclaimed Gerald, prompting the duo to look at each other before nodding.

Thankfully, the trio was able to arrive at the academy in time…

By three, the Leicom Academy’s front gates were already flooded with at least a thousand people. Though many among them were from Jaellatra and had already undergone the initial selection process in the Challenge of the Fairyland, they were still keen on joining the academy.

Even so, just like all the previous times, only eight hundred people would be recruited in the end. With that in mind, it was no exaggeration that the competition just to get enrolled was extremely fierce.

Looking at the crowd, Nori couldn’t help but exclaim, “There are so many people this year!”

Seconds later, the crisp sound of a bell being rung could be heard from within the academy…

Following that, four figures suddenly appeared before the academy’s gates!

They were the four main guards of the Leicom Academy—who had each already entered the Avatar Realm—, and their main task was to keep the academy safe. With that in mind, it was clear as day that these four were extremely terrifying individuals.

In fact, all four of their auras combined were so pressuring that everyone instantly fell into silence upon their arrival.

Naturally, Gerald and his friends weren’t excluded from this feeling. Even though Gerald’s mind was well-trained, having to face such strong cultivators who had entered the Avatar Realm was still proving to be a little too taxing for him. Gerald’s strength was near-incomparable to the four guards…

Understanding that, Gerald could guess that there had to be many more strong cultivators within the academy. It seemed that Nori and Zelig really weren’t exaggerating earlier when they sang praises about the largest academy within the Leicom Continent…

Following that, everyone watched a man wearing a blue robe descended from the sky…

Steadily landing before the crowd, his presence somehow made everyone go even quieter than before.

“…Welcome. I go by Karsten Ykink, and I’m the exam proctor of the Leicom Academy. With that said, I’ll be the chief examiner of your tests today. If any of you weren’t already aware, you’ll only be able to enroll if you pass our test!” explained Karston.

With that said, Karsten then waved his hand, prompting a massive gust of wind to begin blowing… The next thing everyone knew, two huge platforms had manifested before them!

“Let’s not beat around the bush, shall we? The gents are to queue for the left platform while the ladies the right. Essentially, you’ll all be going against representatives of the Leicom Academy, and in order to pass the test, all candidates will have to withstand attacks from them! For those who manage to withstand three consecutive strikes, you’ll be allowed to enter the elite class! If you manage to take two, you’ll be given access to the intermediate class! Finally, those who are only able to withstand a single hit will be allowed to enter the beginner class. If you can’t even take the first hit, then don’t even dream of getting past the gates!” added Karsten.

Gerald found that the selection process was pretty simple and efficient. If he was going to be completely honest, he now” felt that passing the test was going to be a breeze.

“Confident, brother Gerald?” asked Zelig.

“Of course! What about you, brother Zelig?” replied Gerald with a smile.

“Same here. Which class are you aiming for?”

“The elite one of course!” declared Gerald.

Since he was already taking the time and effort to enroll, it felt only natural to Gerald to want to be in the best class. To him, entering any other class was pretty much meaningless.
