It's been four hours already since the ship departed from the seaport while heading towards the direction of the third most powerful island in this world... the Sendra Island, which is remotely controlled by the Sterling Federation.
There are about fifteen chefs who brought in delicious delicacies to the royalties of the Marcel Kingdom. Princess Rose had already drifted off into a deep sleep while staying in her cabin, and Prince Xi Jing was already sleepy.
The Academy's representative remained awake all through the journey!
The representative caressed his mustache as he slowly turned to see Ma Feng standing while resting his body on the edge of the ship. The chilled wind blew eerily as Ma Feng took a deep breath.
"I'm quite surprised that a boy who got chosen to be adopted by a powerful king would be enrolled into the Scarlet Academy so swiftly. You're quite a lucky boy," the voice of the representative was heard.
"Oh, are you talking to ?" Ma Feng asked as he suddenly turned. The representative sighed and smiled calmly. He held a tablet in his hand—it was a specially designed technology made directly by the Federation.
"What's going on in your mind? Are you nervous?" the representative asked.
"I'm not nervous in any way, just wondering how this world works. I'm only just hearing about this Scarlet Academy, and I have many thoughts about this strange world. It could be anything but nervousness," Ma Feng said.
"We'll be arriving at the Scarlet Academy soon, so be prepared, boy. The Scarlet Academy has so rules that even a newbie must obey, or there will be harsh punishnt if disobeyed," the representative said.
"Rules? What are these rules?" Ma Feng asked.
"The proctors and the lecturers must not be disrespected. Besides, you'll be directly referred to the registration hall for the final phase. Prince Xi Jing and Princess Rose are already students of the Academy," the representative said.
"If that's so, then I have no objections. And besides... I have no plans to disobey anyone nor show myself off too much," Ma Feng said as he took a deep breath. He sighed and turned to face the bright blue sky.
"That's very good, boy. Your na is Ma Feng, right? I have a question to ask... What do you think this world actually is? Do you think it's fair or unjust?" the representative asked as Ma Feng slowly turned his head.
"Fair or unjust? That's not a question I can answer freely, but based on my experience, the world is a fvcked up place to be in. Whether it's fair or unfair... it's always bound with inequalities," Ma Feng answered.
"Is that so? Very well then," the representative said.
Ma Feng slowly walked towards his cabin, which was below the upper deck. He entered the cabin and sat down on the bed he had selected. Ma Feng placed his hand on his hair.
"The Scarlet Academy, eh? I haven't even figured out a way to return back yet into my forr world. There are people that must be destroyed by ," Ma Feng said to himself and rested his back on the bed.
Ma Feng suddenly drifted off into dreamland.
One hour later, Ma Feng heard a knock on the cabin door. He rolled down from his bed and walked up to the door. Ma Feng opened the door to see a beautiful maid standing before him, looking sexy.
Ma Feng was imdiately inford that the ship had reached its destination. The emotionless expression written on Ma Feng's face suddenly changed to happiness—he was sick and tired of staying on the ship.
Ma Feng walked out of his cabin and climbed the stairs before him. He had slept on his bed still dressed in his royal outfit. Ma Feng reached the top floor of the ship to see Prince Xi Jing standing beside the representative.
"Hey yo... you're already awake," Prince Xi Jing called out.
Ma Feng walked up to Prince Xi Jing with smiles on his face as Princess Rose ca forth next. She had also been inford by the sa maid and had jumped out in excitent. Princess Rose had already changed into her beautiful gown.
Both Prince Xi Jing and Princess Rose climbed down the stairs that had been brought before them to aid them off the ship, but Ma Feng dived down from the ship's board and landed on the ground afterward.
Imdiately he landed, his leg struck a button on the ground, and a series of poisonous snakes were unleashed against him. Ma Feng evaded the snakes as he moved back.
"What's the aning of this?" Ma Feng asked as he crushed a snake's skull with his leg. Princess Rose giggled out loud while Prince Xi Jing had a funny look on his face throughout the show.
"This island is rigged with many traps. You should follow our steps or you'll fall for them. Besides, there are tens of magical creatures hovering around this island," the representative said.
"Oh really... I guess I'll have to be careful," Ma Feng said.
They began walking the straight path before them, following the Academy's representative from behind. Ma Feng whistled softly as he continued walking and sniffed the air.
VIOLET: NOTICE, THERE ARE A HUNDRED N RUSHING TOWARDS YOUR DIRECTION. SHALL I ACTIVATE THE BATTLE MODE?
"No, I don't have to showcase my abilities yet. I need to learn more about this world before carrying out such deadly actions," Ma Feng said as a hundred and four horses with horsen rushed towards their direction.
The horsen were sent by the Academy to welco the students. Ma Feng, Xi Jing, and Rose mounted the horses brought for them and began riding toward the direction of the Academy.
"Xi Jing... can you tell how the Academy looks?" Ma Feng asked.
"The Scarlet Academy is beautiful, but powerful and strict. Besides, I've already told you a lot about the Academy. We're almost there. Are you nervous?" Prince Xi Jing asked while the horses continued running.
"You're the second person asking such a question, and my answer is definitely no. I am not nervous and won't be nervous of such things," Ma Feng replied while they continued riding, and he suddenly turned.
He could see a mysterious building at the right angle of the island.
"That awful sll of dark magics... What's that?" Ma Feng asked as he frowned, turning to face Prince Xi Jing, who couldn't even sense the dreadful dark magic emanating from the building.
Ma Feng didn't bother asking further as they arrived at the great wall of the Scarlet Academy. The wall was surrounded by tens of watchtowers guarding and surveilling the entire surroundings.
The soldiers detected them, and when the Representative showed his badge, the mighty twelve-foot, sixty-ton tal gate was heard opening systematically. They swiftly rode their horses into the environnt.
"Wow!" Ma Feng exclaid in shock.
He was stunned by the beauty of the Academy. Every student resud in such a manner to boost their morale in the wild jungles. The Scarlet Academy was, without a doubt, built differently.
"Such bright magical energy flowing through this place... This is amazing," Ma Feng exclaid again, unable to close his mouth. The main Academy was still miles away from where they stood.
"I can see you're quite shocked to see the Scarlet Academy, aren't you? I was like you when I first arrived here as a fresher—this felt like heaven," Prince Xi Jing said with a smile on his face.
Prince Xi Jing ca down from his horse, and Rose did the sa.
The Representative walked up to the Commander of the Watchn Division, who slowly approached their direction. The Watchn Commander was a six-foot-tall, heavily muscular, bald-headed man.
Ma Feng stood beside Prince Xi Jing as Princess Rose began licking the candy sweet she had brought along. Their luggage would be brought to their dormitories by the end of the day after everything was completed.
After a brief discussion with the Academy's Representative, who showed the Watchn Commander the registered cards of the three students standing before them, the Commander sighed.
"Who is Ma Feng among you two?" the Commander asked, facing both Prince Xi Jing and Ma Feng. Ma Feng stepped forward calmly and respectfully, nodding.
"I am Ma Feng," he answered.
"The new Prince of the Marcel Kingdom and the adopted son of King Ezerel. Such a lucky kid you are, boy. You'll be taken to the Registration Hall after this for the final phase of your registration," the Commander ordered.
"Okay, sir," Ma Feng replied.
"Violet, this man definitely looks strong... Can you give details about him?" Ma Feng asked as the Commander stretched forth his hand with a teleportation device. Ma Feng placed his hand on the device.
VIOLET: Commander Lurizen of the Scarlet Academy's Watchn Division. A-ranked warrior from the Sidra Kingdom. He is quite skilled in the aspect of battles with a magical level of 18.
"Magical level of eighteen? I guess I'm quite stronger than him then... but an old man like this is definitely powerful enough to cause great trouble. I'm certain he's an expert in battle," Ma Feng said, smiling.
"What are you smiling at, kid?" the Commander frowned.
Commander Lurizen clicked the button on the teleportation device, and they imdiately vanished from where they stood. Prince Xi Jing smiled and turned to face Princess Rose.
"I guess Ma Feng will be joining us later on. We should get going then," Prince Xi Jing said. They were given the Academy's systematic wristbands, and upon pressing a button on them, they vanished as well.
