That morning, all the partic.i.p.ating students gathered in the square.

After confirming that there were no mistakes in the number of people, Lilia, as the instructor who led the team this time, along with Su Han and another tier-6 mage instructor who a.s.sisted her, escorted the students to the square.

The magic flying s.h.i.+p slowly rose.

In the end, under the gaze of thousands of students and teachers in the academy, it disappeared into the sky.

The magic flying s.h.i.+p was very fast. There were many flying magical beasts on this continent, and they were very powerful.

Although many tier-6 mages could fly, they would often fly at a low alt.i.tude when they were flying over long distances, in order to avoid encountering large-scale magical beasts.

In the sky, it was ultimately its home ground.

Even if it was a tier-6 mage, once they encountered a powerful flock of flying magical beasts, it would be difficult to deal with them.

Even if they could defeat them, it would still be troublesome.

However, the magic flying s.h.i.+p did not have such a burden.

They directly flew high in the sky. Along the way, they encountered many groups of flying magical beasts. Those who were weaker felt the aura of the tier-6 mage on the flying s.h.i.+p, so they hid far away.

Even if they were powerful and insisted on coming up to meet them, they would often be killed by the magic weapons on the flying s.h.i.+p.

Just like that, they crossed thousands of mountains and rivers along the way and arrived at the Imperial Capital.

The Imperial Capital.

At the center of the continent was the capital of the Empire. It was the most prosperous, huge, and lively city on the entire continent.

In this huge city, there were more than five million permanent residents.

In addition, a very large number of foreigners arrived at the Imperial Capital every year.

Even if it was the once-in-decade grand compet.i.tion of the Magic Alliance, the influx of countless mages from the mainland was enough to accommodate them.

When the magic flying s.h.i.+p was still very far away from the Imperial City, all the students standing on the flying s.h.i.+p could see a huge city standing on the horizon in the distance.

As the sun slowly rose, more and more sunlight was cast on the city.

The sunlight gradually dispelled the other half of the darkness. Looking from afar, it seemed as if the city had also awakened.

“What a big city!”

“It's so huge, I've never seen it before!”

“It's shocking!”

Some students stood by the side of the s.h.i.+p and looked at the Imperial City under the morning light. They could not help but exclaim in admiration.

Although most of these academies were n.o.bles, many of them were the kingdoms of the Empire. The n.o.bles in duchies and the biggest cities they had seen in their lives were also the local big cities.

This was the first time they had come to the Imperial City.

It was like a country b.u.mpkin entering a city. Naturally, they would be amazed by the biggest city on the continent.

Even the experienced and knowledgeable tier-6 mages, although they did not speak, had their eyes fixed on the city many times.

In their long years, although they had come to the Imperial City many times, they had not lived there often.

Every time they came, it would be a long time.

And every time they came, this huge city would undergo earth-shaking changes.

Hundreds of years ago, the Empire had not yet conquered this continent. This place was just a small town.

Later, as the Empire gradually grew stronger, this town, which was located at the center of the continent, also began to gradually be built.

If it was not for the previous turmoil of the throne, the Empire would have been even more prosperous.

It had been more than ten years since the last turmoil. Now, this place had developed into the largest city on the continent.

Every time they came, they would sigh at how great human power was.

To be able to create such a huge miracle.

In comparison, Su Han appeared to be much calmer.

He had lived in this important city for more than ten years, so naturally, he would not be surprised.

In his previous life, he had seen many big cities. There were many cities that could accommodate tens of millions of people or even tens of millions of people.

A city that could accommodate millions of people was at most a medium-sized city. Naturally, it was not worth him making a fuss over it.

The Imperial City was a no-fly zone.

No matter who came here, they had to obediently descend and not fly over from the sky.

Otherwise, once the mages and Holy Knights stationed in the city noticed them, they would turn back and kill them.

This was an iron law.

No one could violate it!

However, the magic flying s.h.i.+p that belonged to Saint Laurent was naturally not within the scope of this law.

The magic flying s.h.i.+p flew over the city and entered the city directly.

In various parts of the city, some powerhouses were just about to intercept them, but then they saw the patterns on the magic flying s.h.i.+p and Lilia who was standing in front of the flying s.h.i.+p. They immediately returned to silence.

Outside the city gate, some mages who were about to enter the city saw this scene and were instantly stunned.

“Why is that flying s.h.i.+p able to fly through the sky?”

“Why didn't the mages guarding the Imperial City kill it?”

“Why can they fly, but we can't fly!?”

Some mages questioned.

For a moment, the city gate became noisy.

In the face of these questions, the guard at the city gate rolled his eyes at them and said, “Why are you making so much noise? Behave yourself!”

This guard at the city gate was only a second-tier knight.

His strength was low and his position was low.

However, his tone was very impolite.

If it were any other place, an ordinary soldier like him would not dare to say such words to a mage.

After all, mages were very n.o.ble. Any mage had a very superior status.

In some remote places, a tier-1 mage would be able to gain the favor of some n.o.bles and obtain the t.i.tle of Lord.

Every mage was the favored child of the world.

Their status was revered and their strength was powerful.

It was rare to see them on a normal day. Even if they did see them…

They would treat them with respect and would not dare to provoke them.

However, in the Imperial City, even if it was just the city gate guards, they would see countless mages every day.

And these mages, when they reached the city gate, they had to respect and obey the rules. Even they did not dare to be presumptuous in front of the city gate guards!

After all…

Who dared to be presumptuous in the Imperial City of the Empire?

Under such circ.u.mstances, the soldiers naturally did not have any respect for these mages from the countryside.

As expected, after the soldiers said these words, the mages did not dare to speak.

Seeing this scene, the soldier nodded his head in satisfaction and said, “Open your eyes and take a good look. That is the symbol of Saint Laurent carved on the magic flying s.h.i.+p!”

As soon as he said this, the entire city gate fell silent.

Saint Laurent.

The only one who could use this symbol on the continent was the Saint Laurent Magic Academy.

This was the top academy on the continent!

Shouldn't they have some special privileges?

For a moment, these mages did not dare to say any nonsense and lined up obediently.
