The house selection ceremony started as one after another students walked upto the testing area with the two glowing crystal balls placed on the podium .
While there was no defined procedure on how to proceed with the ceremony as a student , with basically one only needing to show their natural talent and elental affinity to the housemaster’s and nothing more . With the first kid going on the stage and declaring his na and level before placing his hands on the crystal balls made the others follow in his suit.
As one after another people would climb onto the testing area and follow the order of declaring their nas
‘ Omas Reed , Level 4 ‘
As they would place their hands on the elental crystal first , and the talent crystal later , and the staff mber monitoring the crystals would declare the results of the test
‘ Elental affinity : Ice ‘.
‘ Talent : 3.5 stars ‘.
After this if the housemaster’s wanted that particular talent , they would bid for them using rit points , or if they did not want them they would be assigned to a house randomly.
‘ Omas Reed , no biddings , Drafted to Gyan House ! ‘.
After a student was drafted to a particular house , they would wear the robes of that house and sit in the table of that particular house , looking at the ceremony from the sides in excitent over other potential housemates.
The mass crowd only slightly cheered when soone above a 3 star talent was drafted , as according to the average , the average talent was around 2.2 stars with anything in the 3 star range being called as a decent catch.
However 3.5 stars was not enough for house masters to spend rit points on , as unless a student had a particularly rare elental affinity 3.5 stars was decent , but not extraordinary.
The only ti that a teacher would use the house’s rit points on acquiring a talent was when 4 star talents or talents with a higher elental affinity appeared.
The kid that everyone was clamouring about at level 7 was one such people who was actually drafted with rit points , as he was the first one in the batch to beco so.
Drafted to Green house for the price of 7 rit points , as Yellow and Blue also bid for him , but letting it go after the price reached 7 points.
Naturally the reaction from the crowd following his draft was massive , as he himself looked proud to be a part of the winning house.
His na was ‘ John Smith ‘
Level : 7
Elental affinity : Wind
Talent : 4.5 stars.
He was a promising talent worth a few rit points , however spending 7 points on him made The green house’s point reserves becoming 1 point below Red houses sitting at 121 to Red house’s 122 , a mistake that would hurt them dearly.
While nobody wanted to follow up that performance , the line must go on , as one after another one and two star talents went up the stage , getting randomly drafted to a house or so rare kids being bought for 1 or 2 rit points by the houses.
The previous record for rit points spent on a single draft was for First Prince Percy as he arrived at the academy smashing all records with his Fire elental affinity , Scarlet red eyes and a monstrous 6.5 star natural talent.
The fact that he was level 24 at age 7 was beyond impressive , as this was a feat unheard of for people his age. Drafted to Karma (green) house for the record of 77 rit points , he was the best buy that karma could ever have with him having a massive contribution in their last year’s overall victory.
Before the last year , no guildmaster thought that spending more than 20 points on a single talent was a sensible choice , as they would rather have 5 talents for 5 points and let every one of them collectively help the house win , than use 25 points on a single talent.
However with Percy’s performance last year that conception was shattered , as one Percy was more talented than fifty 5 point geniuses that a house could draft.
This being with the fact that , Percy’s actual natural talent was not 6.5 star either , the device the academy had was not extrely accurate beyond the 5 star range , as Percy was more talented than 6.5 stars in reality.
However , nothing in the history of the house draft ceremony would get as heated as when it was Ronan Draco’s turn to step on the stage.
While everyone who saw Ronan knew that he was probably from so influential family , seeing how his hair was perfectly oiled and tied into a neat pony .
His barbarious appearance coupled with his attitude of being aloof , made kids around him assu that Ronan was trash of his family . Probably a bastard son of so noble , who was beat regularly in his household.
There were smirks on the kids who tried to talk to Ronan and were ignored , as they were waiting for the mute kid to make a fool of himself as he walked onto the stage.
As Ronan climbed the stairs to reach the testing arena , soone from Karma house said ” That kid looks special , probably so noble kid “.
To which John Smith in his state of arrogance and pride over being specially drafted for 7 rit points said ” This kid…. please , 1 silver says he is 3stars at best , would be drafted randomly , look at the scars on him , probably has been beat all his life “.
However John had to swallow his words , as audible gasps across the arena as Ronan introduced himself and his power level.
Coming onto the podium , Ronan looked into the principal’s eyes as he said ” Ronan Draco , Level 27! “.
