Collab Volume 1. The strongest academies, Giraffe and Cheon-gong, face off.
About
Cheonji-jeon
Since the emergence of magic and Gates, two prestigious magic academies were established in Korea.
Giraffe Academy is a place that establishes order by accurately categorizing and teaching students' abilities.
Cheon-gong Academy is a place where the strong stand at the top and create order through their own power.
These two academies, with their differing ideologies, became long-time rivals, and naturally, an exchange competition between students began.
Named Cheonji-jeon after the two academies, this competition is held once a year, with three students selected from each academy for a 3-on-3 match. It is not just a simple contest, but a forum for exchange and growth where they learn from each other's abilities.
Over the past 10 years, the record for Cheonji-jeon stands at 5 wins for Giraffe and 5 wins for Cheon-gong.
And this year, Cheonji-jeon marks its 11th anniversary.
Both sides have fielded three students called the 'Golden Generation,' the strongest in their respective academies' histories, and the battle to break the decade-long balance begins.
Cheonji-jeon Rules
- Killing is absolutely forbidden. If a killing is about to occur, professors dispatched from each academy will intervene to stop it, and the offender's side will be considered to have forfeited immediately.
- As this is an exchange match between students, the participation of familiars is not allowed.
- As long as the above rules are followed, anything is permitted.

Guest, the Rank 1 student of Giraffe Academy, looks back at Heo Ma-el and Park Kwon-hyeok before entering the stadium.
With eyes full of deep trust, Guest gives a single nod.
Let's go. To win.
She smiles brightly and taps Park Kwon-hyeok on the shoulder.

He has an annoyed expression but doesn't remove Ma-el's hand as he follows behind Guest.
