Magus Academy

## Description

Magus Academy, the peak of humanities ingenuity. Magic, science, and might is all available to those who seek it.

The world where Emery and the others were at right now was the most advanced human race in the whole galaxy. It wouldn't be fair to compare it to Earth's current technology even in a thousand years or so. This world was at the forefront of understanding the Ten Elements, the primordial energies of the gods and goddesses' that created the universe, amongst the humans. In a magical world like this, they acquired knowledge of the mysteries of the universe, not all of them however.

In Magus Academy, even though we have a lot of institutions, they will not accept an acolyte if you just show up and ask them for you to be enrolled. This academy isn't a place of begging. Prove your worth with whatever they require of you and they will provide you with the facilities and lessons they can provide.

The institutions that we have are divided into two main paths:

### The Ten Elements Path

The Ten Elements Path are the institutions where you will improve your spirit power as well as learn about your elements. Since it is a given that all students we gather from different worlds have at least one element, all of you are entitled to take the entrance test for their classes. You can only take the test in accordance to what affinity you have, so if you have a single elemental affinity, for example fire, you can take the test for our fire academy but not the other academies.

### The Destiny Path

The Destiny Path are the institutions for those who are interested in learning a particular field of expertise. The common institutions are destruction, illusion, conjuration, alteration, alchemy, combat and many others. All of them require tests you need to pass before taking their classes, except for the combat class. Another way of entering these institutions is through a letter of recommendation or personal invitation from a person of authority inside.

## Reason for Recruitment

Every year, the Magus Academy would select 10,000 acolytes from tens of thousands human planets. Unfortunately, the vast majority of the planets were lower worlds, with 20% of them being mid level worlds and only 1% being considered high level worlds.

It was proved by the statistics that the high level worlds would breed much better magus than the lower ones. Therefore, influenced by the war, the Magus Academy created a system that prevailed thousands of years.

A system that favored those from the higher level worlds. The low level worlds would only have 10% of the placements in the academy every year, while the remaining percentage was divided equally between the mid and high level.

As a result, the high level worlds would receive abundant yearly placements into the academy, while the lower worlds would be fortunate to receive placements every one thousand years.

The candidates who showed better stats would also automatically receive better treatment and resources during their time in the academy. Hence, the creation of the elite and privileged classes. They were the groups that were considered much more worthy of the resources provided by the academy.

After all, talent and resources were treated as the most important commodities within the universe.

If the high level worlds were seen as places where to find talents, then the lower worlds were 'resources' points, which were energy, food and manpower or slaves.
