The Arcane Crystal flared up again, glowing brightly, and the test results became visible.
•Most of the first-year students were at the Initial or Early Stage of Rank 1 Mage.
•The more talented students were at the Middle and Upper Stages of Rank 1 Mage, showing impressive results.
•The heirs of ancient families and noble houses received their results calmly, thinking they were expected, since everyone knew they were Rank 2 Mages.
•The members of the Imperial family, standing above all the others, were at the Upper Stage of Rank 2 Mage, showing their special status. Imperial blood made its presence clear.
When the light around the crystal faded, everyone understood their positions and importance within the Academy.
Kyle's Result and the Vice-Principal's Observation
Kyle was at the Middle Stage of Rank 1 Mage, which was already an impressive result for a first-year student.
Alina, his classmate, showed a similar result.
Both of them were talented mages, but their powers still couldn't compare to those ranked higher.
However, one person noticed something unusual.
Vice-Principal Adrian, standing at the edge of the platform, was watching each student carefully.
When his gaze fell on Kyle, his expression changed slightly.
He squinted and focused on the magic flow around the young man.
Among the many students with ordinary magic flow, Kyle stood out with something special.
"This guy… has unusual magic," Vice-Principal Adrian thought, sensing the faint but clear presence of light magic in Kyle's magic flow.
It wasn't just a rare thing—it was something more mysterious, something that could mean much more than just talent.
Vice-Principal Adrian didn't say a word, but his gaze stayed on Kyle, leaving many questions in the air.
Group Division and the Identification Magic Mark
The ceremony ended, and the results were announced.
The students now knew where they would study and with whom.
The whole group was divided into:
•Elite Group – students with outstanding results, including Kyle and Alina.
•Regular Group – students with lower rankings.
Since Kyle and Alina were at the Middle Stage of Rank 1 Mage, they earned a place in the Elite Group, among the best students in the Academy.
After the ceremony, each student was sent to the masters for the identification magic mark.
This was a standard procedure that allowed the Academy's system to automatically track each student's status.
The magic mark was not just a symbol; it was a complex system that connected each student to their unique magic flow and identity.
How the Magic Mark Works
The magic mark was automatically recognized when:
•Entering buildings.
•Using resources.
•Taking part in events.
It allowed teachers and professors to confirm the student's identity and provide access to:
•Study materials.
•Libraries.
•Magical items.
For example:
•When entering the library or a classroom, the magic mark confirmed that the student had the right to be there.
•When using magical items, the system detected the magic mark and allowed only students with the right level to use them.
A New Beginning
For Kyle, Alina, and the other students in the Elite Group, this meant new opportunities and more access.
Their path at the Academy was now set, and the advanced magical system allowed them to focus on their studies without distractions.
When Kyle went through the identification process, he felt a slight vibration in his magic flow as the magic mark confirmed his status in the Academy's system.
Alina, standing beside him, quietly exhaled, also feeling the magical check.
This was a world where magic and technology merged into one system, creating a unique learning environment.
