"That girl Bella is putting old man Lin on the hot seat!" Across the distant fence, Ye Chen and Ye Xi, disguised as a group of ordinary merchants, watched the opening ceremony on the school playground with great interest.
"But what she said is also true. Senior Lynn couldn't even last ten moves against her!" Ye Xi said with a smile, finding endless amusement in watching others get tricked.
“That’s true. With elves, magic, and the advantages of a newly formed race, Bella’s talent far surpasses Lynn’s current abilities. If he were a few hundred years younger, he would be a match!” Ye Chen laughed. “By the way, I remember he was also human, right? But he migrated here with the Aeneas?”
“Yes, Master Lynn is a human!” Ye Xi nodded.
"A Westerner living on a continent surrounded by alien races, and yet he has such a distinctly Eastern name—he must be a truly remarkable talent! When the rare fruits that prolong life ripen, send him plenty to make up for his lost lifespan. This guy surnamed Lin is always a protagonist; maybe he can even lead our primordial planet to new heights!"
"Okay!"
Ye Xi responded to Ye Chen's mutterings. She didn't understand many of the terms, but she just needed to hear what she was supposed to do: make up for some of the lifespan that Lin En had lost.
This would be extremely difficult to do in any world, but in the era of lords, while it's not an easy task, it's not that difficult either.
"Regarding your studies at the Elf Royal Academy, just like at Hope Academy, it is divided into four grades, from first-year students to fourth-year students. However, promotion is not based on annual advancement, but on your own credits, knowledge, and assessments."
"In other words, you might study for ten years and still be a freshman, but someone else might have to call you a senior after just one year."
"Of course, this is an extreme case, because normally no one can stay in a grade for ten years. Those who stay for three consecutive years will be advised to withdraw, and your student career will be over!"
"At the same time, as students who graduate early, the Elf King City will revoke their second-class resident status, while students who successfully graduate will be granted first-class resident status. If you don't know what first-class and second-class residents are, you can go to the City Hall to find out. This is closely related to your life in the Elf King City."
"..."
At the presidium, Bella was still giving a long and detailed account of the Elf Royal Academy's rules. There were many rules, but she only picked out a few of the main ones to talk about. The rest was up to the students to see if they would understand how to learn the rules and even how to use them.
This is also why Ye Chen, though surprised, did not stop Ye Ling from setting these rules. The differences between different cities are what allow the Primordial Star to maintain sufficient diversity and have more possibilities in the darkness.
Unlike the openness of Hope Academy and New Aini City, the Elf Capital and the Elf Royal Academy are like a closed and proud kingdom. Of course, its power is undeniable, but many rules restrict most people in the city.
For example, the division of residents into four classes: third-class residents could only live in the outer city, could buy houses, but were not allowed to open shops.
Second-class residents can still only live in the outer city, but they can open shops, join the management team, and have most of the privileges.
Only first-class residents can become the true administrators of the outer city, possessing almost all imaginable privileges, including the right to enter the inner city once a month.
Therefore, only the inner city is the true core area of the Elf King's City. It is a paradise where only the Silver Moon Elves live, a pure land far away from strife.
To truly live in the inner city like the Silver Moon Elf, one needs the highest resident privilege in the Elf King's City - Honorary Resident!
The scope of a resident's privileges varies greatly, ranging from those like Ye Chen, who can directly control the entire Elf Capital, to those as limited as only being able to reside in the inner city.
The rules and regulations of the Elf King City seemed to restrict his development, but both Ye Chen and Xia Qingyi felt that they were very suitable for the current Elf King City and the current environment.
The large number of alien races in Xiniu Hezhou need to be controlled, and the Elf King City must possess absolute authority and majesty. The best way to declare and maintain this majesty is to establish rules.
When all races on the continent are required to follow the rules they set, they naturally fall under the control of those rules.
Therefore, when the people on the playground heard about the various harsh school rules set by Bella, although they were indignant, no one dared to refute them. If you are not as strong as others, you can only follow the rules.
"Actually, rules are just a kind of habit. They are used to regulate your habits. Once you develop the habit of following the rules, even the strictest rules are no big deal!" Ye Chen said with a faint smile. Here, he was the ruler. Anyone who wanted to break the rules had to break through his rule first!
"Alright, that's enough time. That covers the main points. Go back and review the academy handbook; it's all been distributed to your terminals!"
"Oh, right, the terminal!" Bella suddenly remembered something, picked up her staff, and a mysterious spell was gradually drawn out, eventually flying towards the notification letters in the hands of all the students.
As the magic touched them, the acceptance letters held by the students suddenly transformed into tablets made of a special metal material. A profile picture frame was displayed on the large screen in front of each tablet, allowing students to scan their faces for verification.
"This is the terminal for our Royal Elf Academy. The gold-plated leaves and crown on the back are the emblem of our Royal Elf Academy. Don't forget it!"
"After you complete the verification, you can find relevant information about the college on it. Of course, the verification requires the person to be verified. If this notice is not yours, or if it was obtained through some illegal means, then unfortunately, you will probably have to face the investigation team's verification!"
"Oh, and let me introduce you to the Fire Ravens, the campus patrol team that our beloved Queen specially brought from the Sun Star! They will be stationed in every corner of the academy, constantly observing whether you are violating any school rules?"
"Of course, if you have any controversial topics or encounter any difficulties, you can also seek their help to negotiate a solution. But don't forget to give them a small tip for their hard work!"
As Bella finished speaking, the sky turned crimson, and a wave of intense heat washed over everyone as the entire flock of fire crows danced in the air above the playground, sending chills down everyone's spines.
