CHAPTER 83 - ROYAL MAGIC ACADEMY
Translated by Luxican

It was already late, the hazy moonlight shone down on the streets.
Unable to persuade Gu Feng otherwise, they walked to the Royal Magic Academy.
Before she actually went to the Royal Magic Academy, Yun Sheng still had the image of the Magic Schools you could read about in novels in the modern era.
In fact, when she arrived in front of the Royal Magic Academy under Gu Feng's guidance, the school wasn't that different from the ones in the books.
The Royal Magic Academy, which was built by the Royal Clan of the Great Zhou Empire with a huge amount of money, was not built in Yujing City, but outside the city, on a little mountain with quite a good view.
In the past, this mountain was a hunting manor of the Royal Family, and after reconstructions, it became the size of the current Royal Magic Academy.
Because of a magic array, the surroundings area was shielded by trees all year round, and the scenery was incomparably beautiful.
The academy had large square, straight roads and luxurious buildings, and from what Gu Feng told them, there was also a special Magic Tower for the academy's different types of students to study.
When Yun Sheng and Doctor Fan arrived at the entrance of the academy, there were only a few illuminated magic arrays, which were emitting a soft magical glow.
On the school's emblem was a magic scepter, and around the scepter were the four main attributes: red fire, yellow earth, blue water, and green wind.
"Junior student Gu Feng, why did you only come back at such a late hour? Also, the academy strictly forbids outsiders from entering, have you forgotten the rules of the academy?" the guards at the school gate stopped the trio as they approached.
"I...I...," when Gu Feng got nervous, he would stutter even more, and he didn't know how to reply.
"We've already informed your teacher, Mei Li, any explanation you have, you should tell her," the guards also saw that Gu Feng was injured, and then looked at the two strangers, they immediately went to inform the teacher.
Soon, a flamboyant female rushed out of the school like a whirlwind.
The sorceress was dressed in a red magician's robe, and held a magic scepter in her hand, Yun Sheng looked at her and discovered that she was a Magic Master.
After Yun Sheng glanced at her, Yun Sheng was certain that this female magic tutor was a fire-wind magician.
"Gu Feng, you brat, you really want to be put in for solitary confinement, don't you? Because of you dragging your feet in the fighting class, the 13th Potion team has been in the bottom of the combined magic score, for two months in a row. If this continues, I'll be joked around by the other instructors again!" The female was Gu Feng's Mentor.
In the Magic Academy, every student who enters would be entrusted to a mentor.
The mentor could be a teacher who picked the students they felt comfortable with, or they could be randomly assigned by the school.
Most teachers liked to pick students with strong wit and strength. Due to a family matter at the beginning of the school year, Mei Li returned a little late, leaving her with the left-over students, including Gu Feng and one other student.
The Royal Magic Academy is strict, and for most of the month, students are not allowed to go out without permission.
Today was Public Day, the Royal Magic Academy's monthly opening day to the public, as well as a holiday for the students. The academy allowed the students to go out, but they have to return to the academy before sunset.
Mei Li went to the school dormitory after sunset to check on them, but found that Gu Feng hadn't returned yet.
When she asked Gu Feng's roommate, she found that Gu Feng had gone to buy a magic scepter.
Most magicians would directly buy a magic scepter after the magic assessment in the Magic Temple.
But as a scholarship student, Gu Feng was too poor, so he had delayed it until today. He saved enough money to buy his own magic scepter.
Mai Li had a fiery personality, only a bit stimulation and she could already come out to kill you.
She was about to teach Gu Feng a lesson, but found that the silly child's head was wrapped like a rice dumpling, and even his clothes were tattered and full of mud.
"Gu Feng! What happened?" Although Mei Li's temper was a little bad, and she was not happy with Gu Feng dragging the team she was leading down, she could not let her student get bullied.
She immediately set her eyes on the suspicious strangers Yun Sheng and Doctor Fan.
It could not be the girl of only five or six years old.
Then it must be the old one!
But when she looked at Doctor Fan's appearance and the magical aura around him, Mei Li felt something wrong again.
"No need to be so suspicious, we didn't bully him, it was the students of the Magic Academy who bullied Gu Feng, he was trampled by a horse today and almost died, if you don't believe me, you can look at the back of his head," Yun Sheng interjected.
"What? Did those bastards over at the Magic Fighting Department bully you again? Tell me, which group was it?" From Mei Li's words, it seemed like there were two different types of students in the magic academy, Magic Fighting and Potion Department.
"No...I...accidently fell down myself...and was stepped on by a passing horse," Gu Feng denied in panic, seeing his cowardly appearance, if it wasn't for his head injury, Yun Sheng would have already hit him, to wake up this silly boy.
Mei Li saw that Gu Feng refused to admit it no matter what, her anger subsided, but instead, she became depressed at her student's cowardice.
"I told you not to go out with the Du kid, but you just wouldn't listen, you deserve to be bullied. And the two of you, thank you for sending my student back, it's getting late, and the Royal Magic Academy doesn't allow outsiders, you can leave now," Mei Li looked like she hated the two of them, while arrogantly giving the two of them an eviction order.
"Mei...Teacher Mei...don't say that...that...Yun Sheng...is my benefactor...she also wants to enter...the Royal Magic Academy...can you...help recommend her to enter...the academy," Gu Feng, although he looked simple, he knew how to repay kindness, he had unintentionally heard Yun Sheng saying that she wanted to enter the Magic Academy, so he wanted his mentor to recommend Yun Sheng to enter the academy.
He also wished to have one more classmate who got along with him, preferable if they also joined their 13th Portion team.
"Enter the Magic Academy? You can't this year, come again next year," Mei Li waved her hand, a wind magic levitation spell lifted Gu Feng up, and they were about to enter the Royal Magic Academy.
