The villainous young master just wants to live a Buddhist-like life.

　After completing half an hour of practice of "Netherworld Art", Dark did not forget to summon the system, opened the list, and as usual, conducted an end-of-month summary of "Great Sins".

　v

　【傲慢：92→91）【嫉妒：60→55]【暴怒：77→75]【懒惰：48→46]【贪婪：92→92]【暴食：89→90]【极乐：90→90]

　September.

　Dark continued to focus on absorbing "greed," primarily to facilitate the creation of the "Golden Golem."

　Apart from "greed," he only drew "pride," "ecstasy," and "gluttony" once each.

　Among them, "Arrogance" increases slightly after being drawn once.

　Both "Ecstasy" and "Gluttony" are well controlled, and "Greed" recovers by two points after sufficient extraction.

　In October, he plans to slightly shift his focus towards "binge eating".

　There's no need to deliberately increase it; just slowly extract it until you have enough to create a "Gluttony I III" chart and begin your research on "Gluttony" on the right track. As for the remaining "Sloth," "Envy," and "Wrath," those will have to wait until you have more energy.

　His workload is already enormous, and it's not a good time to put more pressure on himself.

　Moreover, he has a strong need for both "greed" and "arrogance," and requires more accumulation.

　In short, everything is in good order.

　Dark isn't actually someone who likes to follow plans. But you can only say that "habit" is a very powerful thing.

　He had unknowingly become someone who excelled at planning and coordination. And after the end-of-month summary, he finally welcomed October.

　September this year seemed to pass by exceptionally quickly, almost in the blink of an eye.

　Upon closer reflection, this is largely due to the fact that he dedicated most of his time to mathematics.

　If there were a "god of mathematics" in this world, he would probably be protected.

　The last night of September passed without incident. St. Marian's College smoothly entered October.

　On the first day of October, the Royal Academy arrived!

　Several academies arrived one after another, but none of them had the grandeur of the Royal Academy.

　But after all, it's a royal academy; if they lack strength, they can make up for it with sheer numbers.

　The only thing that surprised Dak was that one of the leaders of the Royal Academy this time was actually Prince Charles!

　Today it is today.

　Dak was, of course, very clear about where Charles, Elizabeth, and the others had gone on vacation.

　When the "Magic Alliance" was established, he and Elizabeth accompanied the old king to the Free City for a few days of relaxation.

　Dak originally thought that when the trip to the Free City ended, it would also be the end of Charles and Elizabeth's free time.

　Unexpectedly, Prince Charles managed to secure a job doing manual labor outside of prison! "Now that Charles is out, what about Elizabeth?"

　As Dark watched the welcoming procession, he immediately scanned the group but couldn't find Princess Elizabeth. Instead, he spotted Quintina, who had transferred to the Royal Academy less than a month prior.

　This is just like seeing the chubby little boy, Keldimon, in the Holy Mystic Academy's group—a small but significant Easter egg.

　In other words, the Royal Academy has fallen so low that it needs to rely on a transfer student who has only recently joined the academy.

　Emmm...

　Perhaps Quintina is truly strong.

　After all, even though she is now the owner of the "God Card", Dark wouldn't be surprised.

　The gods are resurrected, the era is in turmoil, and nothing is impossible. After confirming that Eliza was not there, Dark quietly left, then found Ellie and ordered her to contact Ash.

　Ellie and Aisha were both first-year students at the Noble Academy. However, Aisha only stayed at the academy for a week before leaving to return to the capital.

　Dark asked a question, Aisha searched for the answer, and quickly received a reply. Princess Elizabeth…

　He was then imprisoned in a hell called the Royal Palace.

　Moreover, she added several outstanding names to the list of teachers in the palace.

　"It seems the King is serious this time!" Dark couldn't help but murmur.

Chapter 1161 If You're a Prince, Go Up to the 100th Floor (4k)

　But if the king was so determined to make his son a dragon, why would he send his eldest son, Charles, out for a whole month of leisure?

　Was it because Charles had an important mission that only he could shoulder, or because... he had been abandoned?

　Although Dak didn't want to speculate maliciously, the difference in treatment between the eldest princess and the eldest prince seemed to say something.

　"Well, over the years, I've never heard of the eldest prince having particularly good grades. On the contrary, Eliza was an outstanding student who graduated from St. Marian Academy without any problems."

　"Could it be that Eliza won without a fight?" "That shouldn't be the case!"

　"Charles, how could you fall down over something like this?" "Anyone would be unwilling to accept this!"

　"So, you've brought this team here to find a way to save yourselves, right?"

　"There's absolutely no way they came here just to relax, right?"

　"what"

　Dark was internally complaining.

　Having witnessed firsthand the rivalry between Prince Charles and Princess Elizabeth, and seeing this source of amusement that had helped him through so many agonizing breakfast hours come to an end in such a boring way, Dak felt somewhat reluctant.

　He sincerely hoped that Charles was coming to save himself, not just to clear his head. "Struggle, Charles!"

　After having this thought, Dak always felt that there was a dark cloud hanging over the eldest prince's head whenever he looked at him.

　Dark clouds loom overhead, the market outlook is bearish! A capital "G" appears. Dac couldn't help but feel a deep sense of sorrow.

　Following the arrival of the Royal Academy students, the teams from several major academies have now all arrived.

　The War Totem Academy of the Orcs, the Elven Spell Academy of the Elves, the Public Magic Academy of the Goblins and Dwarves, the Holy Mystic Academy of the Holy Church, the Royal Academy of the Capital, and St. Mary's Academy, which is the host.

　These six academies are currently the largest magic academies. Of these six, half are human academies, which aligns well with the current situation on the continent.

　After the war ended, humans occupied nearly half of the continent's usable territory and resources, with the remainder being divided among other races.

　Of course, this is because humanity's contributions in war and its current strength are sufficient to justify this position.

　Besides these six mainstream academies, there are actually quite a few smaller magic academies on the continent.

　Most of these magic academies are privately owned, established independently by one or two magic masters, and located throughout the continent.

　Small-scale private academies like these have few students and even fewer resources. Even if a few highly talented junior mages occasionally emerge, they are usually recommended to study at the mainstream academies.

　However, there are always exceptions.

　There are also a few small colleges with special strengths; they are small simply because they have very few students they want to enroll.

　One typical example is the Fairy Village Academy, which is located in the fairy village and only admits little fairies.

　After finalizing the "Academy Championship," St. Marian Academy also extended an invitation to the Fairy Village, but the Fairy Village rejected it without any room for negotiation.

　And the reason given for refusing to go is impeccable.

　—This generation of Fairy Village Academy, even with all the little fairy students gathered together, cannot meet the most basic requirement of "needing twenty-four pre-competition contestants".

　In other words, the total number of students in all six grades of the Fairy Academy is less than twenty-four.

　What's even more disheartening is that even if the requirement of "24 pre-contestants" is changed to "12 contestants", it still cannot be achieved!

　Under these circumstances, it is impossible for Fairy Village Academy to participate in the competition.

　They can't just create new students out of thin air, can they?

　A very similar situation exists with the legendary Dragon Academy.

　The Dragon Academy, which can only be entered by pure-blooded dragons, has students who are not even humanoid!

　The "Academy Championship" is theoretically open to all magic academies on the continent. However, in reality, only a small number of magic academies meet the requirements and accept the invitation.

　In the end, only these six colleges were present.

　Once all the colleges have arrived, there will be an opening ceremony for the "College Championship," tentatively scheduled for this Saturday. Following that, there will be a warm-up exhibition match to officially kick off the inaugural "College Championship."

　This can be considered as a special performance stage provided by the academy for those "pre-contestants" who are unable to participate.

　But the students thought the final list would consist of these six colleges.

　At 6:30 p.m. that evening, as dusk fell, the seventh college arrived!

　The sudden burst of light in the sky attracted the attention of the first group of students.

　Then the news spread like wildfire, and soon all the students noticed it and went to the window to look up.

　Then an entrance appeared above the barrier, and a small boat, only three or four meters wide, sailed into St. Mary's Academy from the air.

　"Sky Boat"

　Dark looked at the vehicle, which had a distinct "Sky City" style, with some surprise.

　Although "Sky City" managed to catch the last train of the "Magic Alliance" by using the Duke's Mansion as a connection.

　But they kept a very low profile both on and off the field.

　The deputy city lord from "Sky City" silently attended all the banquets, but acted as if he hadn't participated at any of them.

　This is the complete opposite of the "Star Tower," which also caught the last train.

　In short, the "Star Tower" is, after all, the team of prophets, so they will be more active than ordinary people and habitually show their presence.

　However, there is no toilet academy on the "Star Tower". This time, the "Academy Championship" is huge in scale and has attracted unprecedented attention, so they can only be absent.

　Ironically, it was the "Sky City," which had been overlooked by everyone, that sent its team.

　However, given the birth rate of newborns in "Castle in the Sky," it would be extremely difficult to gather these 24 pre-contestants.

　But their main selling point is that they never spoil the fun; every image is unremarkable, yet they have it all.

　Standing at the very front of the "Sky Ship" is none other than Parvana Lemaître, the deputy city lord of the "Sky City"!

　"Sky City" is the home of the long-lived species, so naturally, those participating in the competition are also long-lived species.

　Dark couldn't help but feel curious, wondering what kind of long-lived species would come.

　Guided by the academy professors, the "Sky Ship" descended onto the Dragon Taming Platform. The "Spirit Dragon" Parvana Lemaître lightly leaped from the "Sky Ship." Immediately afterwards, students filed out of the cabin.

　Although long-lived species live long lives, the knowledge and refinement they are so proud of also require the accumulation of years.

　Before they truly mature, they are not much different from ordinary humans on a psychological level, except that they are more calm due to their living environment.

　But a boy is still a boy.

　St. Mary's Academy holds a very high position in the education sector. It has always been the dream school for young people.

　The young men and women were quite excited to have arrived at their dreamland. Moreover, they had never left the "Sky City" before today.

　Let alone St. Marian Academy, even just randomly choosing a city to land in would excite them for a long time.

　Half past nine in the evening.

　After meeting Principal Arte and having dinner, only two of the twenty-four preliminary contestants from "Sky City" arrived at the tower of the Noble Academy.

　Unlike the day the orcs suddenly arrived, the students of the Noble Academy were already used to the arrival of students from different academies one after another.

　With experience, they would even try to guess when the students from those colleges would arrive and how many would be assigned to the Noble College.

　When the two students from "Sky City" pushed open the door, the students from the Noble Academy were discussing something animatedly, which was overheard by the person involved.

　But the two students didn't care at all. They even looked inside quite actively, their eyes repeatedly sweeping over the orcs, dwarves, goblins, and elves, and they stood at the door whispering to each other.

　Their actions only made things more obvious, immediately displeasing the orc royal family.

　Seeing that an orc was glaring at them, one of the female students quickly tugged at the male student's sleeve. The two of them quickly composed themselves and walked towards the human student.

　Doron watched as the two students walked straight towards him. He excitedly exchanged a glance with Pistan.

　Just like the students of "Castle in the Sky" yearn for St. Marian Academy.

　The people living on the ground also yearn for the legendary "Sky City" that floats above the clouds.

　The legend of "Castle in the Sky" is always full of legend and romance.

　The students of St. Marian Academy, especially the girls, have a very strong interest in "Sky City".

　Soon, the two students from "Sky City" walked up to Duolong.
