Groups aren't common in prestigious academies like the Five Kingdoms Academy, and so might see it as unfair to students who aren't able to form groups due to their backgrounds. Those without connections might feel disadvantaged compared to their peers who co from influential families or have already established networks.
However, the Academy actively promotes the formation of groups. They view it as essential preparation for the outside world, which is often much more unfair and cruel. By encouraging groupism, the Academy aims to teach students valuable lessons about survival and success in a competitive environnt.
This approach allows students to learn early on the importance of building alliances and finding people who can help them overco their shortcomings. In the real world, no one succeeds entirely on their own, Unless they are Overwhelming genius at their work and thus for normal or average geniuses forming strategic partnerships is often crucial.
By navigating the complexities of group dynamics within the Academy, students develop critical social and leadership skills, in simple words Academy teaches its students practical lessons not just written things on books.
They emphasised on practical lessons more than theoretical knowledge, and it is also this approach that propel this academy higher level in short amount of ti.
Furthermore, working in groups teaches students the importance of teamwork. It emphasizes that collaboration can lead to greater achievents than working alone. They learn to rely on one another, share responsibilities, and combine their strengths to tackle challenges more effectively.
In summary, while the practice of forming groups might initially seem unfair to so, it is an intentional part of the Academy's educational philosophy. It equips students with the skills and experiences necessary to thrive in an often harsh and competitive world beyond the Academy's walls.
"Such an ingenious thod. The founders of this Academy were truly great," Aiden thought as he observed others forming groups.
'This thod is like killing many birds with a single stone ' Aiden thought and then looked at the people sitting near him, just like others he also have ford his group and they are the ones he has selected,
Many approached him to form groups, but Aiden only chose six people for his team, each being special in a certain field, perhaps without even themselves knowing it, except for one person.
Ramona, who was also selected for Aiden's group, looked at the other mbers and then at Aiden. 'Is he also regressed like ?' she wondered.
'If not, then it doesn't make any sense for him to select the future Alchemy King. Not to ntion, the others are also sowhat great talents in their fields. Moreover, unlike the Alchemy King who is destined to beco the Alchemy King of the whole world, the others are at least the best in the Academy,' Ramona pondered, as she looked at the people Aiden had selected for the team.
'But... then why hasn't he approached already? After all, we were married in the future,' Ramona thought, biting her nails.
'Argh... no, maybe they were initially in the sa group but later beca enemies for whatever reason. After all, in my previous life, I didn't join the Five Kingdoms Academy,' Ramona then thought and nodded, convinced her reasoning was correct.
She let it go and began to search for more such talents for Aiden.
Aiden, on the other hand, stood up from his seat and began to approach Ivan silently. He enveloped himself and Ivan in a Falsify skill to prevent Ivan from discovering him. Stealthily approaching behind Ivan, who was talking with the winners of the fifth and sixth days, Aiden lifted his hand and in a single motion placed it on Ivan's shoulder.
Pat!
'Yes... finally,' Aiden ntally celebrated as he looked at Ivan, who had jumped several ters ahead, now looking back at him with vigilance.
"Oh, sorry if I scared you," Aiden said with a smile.
Ivan, seeing Aiden's smile, felt a sense of loss and misfortune surrounding him. 'Shoot, what the heck is this?' Ivan scread ntally as he saw the golden dragon of luck on him shrink by half.
He then looked at Aiden and saw Aiden's luck cloud increasing more and more until it transford into a phoenix—a small one, but a phoenix nonetheless.
'A phoenix-shaped luck cloud ans he has no interest in dominance. Was I wrong?' Ivan thought as he observed Aiden's phoenix-shaped luck using his Emperor's Eyes.
His Emperor's Eyes, a spirit skill of his second spirit, allowed him to see many things, including the amount of luck one possessed. Generally, luck in the world cos in three colors: white, aning average luck; black, aning bad luck; and golden, aning good luck. These colors form clouds initially—the higher the amount of luck, the larger the cloud.
After a certain threshold, these clouds gain forms, like his dragon and Aiden's phoenix. Each form is based on the person's personality. A dragon signifies a desire for dominance over others, while a phoenix indicates a pursuit of a long and bright life. There are also white tigers, symbolizing battle maniacs, and black tortoises, representing those who desire strength without fa.
'But then why did my luck decrease when he touched ?' Ivan thought, unable to wrap his head around the contrasting nature of Aiden's luck and its effects. On one hand, Aiden's touch seed to harm him, while on the other hand, Aiden's carefree personality didn't fit the image of soone with harmful intentions.
' or was it unintentional?' Ivan thought and then suppressing the feeling of loss of his luck, he asked Aiden " What is it?"
" oh, I was asking if you can join my group?" Aiden asked amd then he ntally added ' Please say No, or how would I steal your opportunities '
Keeping his smile he waited for Ivan response, Ivan narrowed his eyes and then after so mont he replied " You are late, I already found a group "
" what a pity, your spirit is quite avoid match for our group" Aiden sighed and then shrugging he left.
' So easily, so was it really unintentional? ' Ivan thought as Aiden left without forcing him much.
" are you alright?" Ivan group mbers asked.
Ivan nodded and then he removes his gaze from Aiden back.
Aiden who was returning to his group couldn't help but smile as he successfully touched him.
' Should I touch Ramon too?' Aiden thought as he sits back to his seat.
He looked at Ramona and saw her arrogantly talking to so students, crossed hands, looking down at them, as if, it seed she is ordering them rather than talking to them.
Aiden then seeing her like this looked at the pair of girls, she is ordering around.
The girls seems sisters and one of them hiding behind other, while other protecting her from Ramona.
Curious, Aiden used Akashic Insight on the girls.

'Hmm, innate talent—that's new,' Aiden thought to himself as he observed the situation and began to understand why Ramona was interested in them.
'Is she also like Ivan?' Aiden wondered, looking at Ramona.
'No matter what, once I see her future, everything will be clear,' Aiden thought, deciding to let it go for now.
'Though, who are these sisters? I haven't seen them in the selection process,' Aiden mumbled to himself.
He then looked around and noticed eight more students like them. Each had either impressive talents or higher-grade spirits.
'But... where did they all co from? None of them were present during the selection process,' Aiden frowned. He began to approach the old man to inquire about them.
Old man who was talking with the people of other kingdoms excused himself seeing Aiden coming towards him.
He went to Aiden and then taking him to a table, he asked " What this old man can do for you?"
" Elder Again, why are you talking like this?" Aiden asked.
" Ahh, it was a joke, dont mind , now tell what is it?" Old man chuckled and waved his hand and motioned Aiden to go on.
Aiden nodded and then said " I noticed Ten students who werent in the Selection process days "
Old man nodded and then said " Excellent observation Aiden, Before I tell you about them, let tell you first the Every year quota of the Academy"
" Every year Academy takes in 100 students, 70 like the usual process you saw, amd for the other 30 it is reserved for special cases like them"
" Each them process a unique talent from birth, that distinguish them from other masses" Old man explained to Aiden.
Aiden nodded as he already saw , how each of them has innate talent or either their spirits are slightly fused with them, causing their bodies to acquire so characteristics and it manifested as the unique talents.
